Althea was sitting in her room, being a Sixth Form Border, she got a dorm
to herself, her mind drifting away from her work, away from the school,
back to her home, with G.I. Joe, and the misfits. She knew why she was
here, but it was a difficult mission, infiltrate a boarding school, and
find some mutants, who should emerge soon. It sounded ridiculous, how
could this quiet English school hold the key to beating the X-men at
getting new recruits. Her mind floated back to when she was told about the
mission.
*Flashback*
"Wavedancer, Trinity, I have a mission for you." Hawk said,
"What is it?" Althea queried
"And why us?"
"We've never gone on a mission before!"
"Will it be dangerous?"
"We need you to recruit some new mutants." Hawk said calmly
"Again, why us?"
"We don't know when they will emerge, who they are, what they'll be able to do."
"Or where?" Althea put in
"That we do know, a small boarding school in Kent, UK."
"Why us?" Trinity asked
"It's an all girls boarding school."
"How do we know that they will emerge? And where?"
"Ah, that's the strange part." Hawk started
"Yes? Any stranger than Xi? Any stranger than the Misfits? Any stranger than."
"I get the hint! I'll let Bree explain." Hawk sighed,
"Bree?" Althea asked
"Yeah, me!" Bree said, walking out of the shadows,
"So what's up?"
"Well, when this base was built, the builders found some old scrolls; thinking they were important the government had them translated from Greek into English, and published; it turned out that they were some sort of prophecy, so a few were sold, and it was just ignored. Anyway, recently I found it, and started looking through it."
"Lifeline was busy?" Brittany asked
"Yeah, anyway; after a couple of pages I came across a reference that was startling."
"Which was?"
"'And of the Army, they shall only realize the importance of the prophecy, when the wife of the pacifist, shall read these words, and this shall be while the earth bird controls the unit.'"
"Freaky!" Quinn said
"Cool!"
"Weird!" Brittany agreed
"What came next?" Althea asked
"Well then it went on about how five new mutants would arrive, and whoever recruits them will have immense power; then it said where they would emerge."
"How do you know it's now?"
"The book."
"So we're going to a small school, to find some mutants that this book says will emerge! Great!"
"It's only for a term, if they don't emerge by then, the book was wrong."
"So what about the rest of the Misfits?"
"Well, in order to keep a low profile, you're all moving to England for the Summer."
"WHAT?!" Todd yelled from just outside the door; Hawk sighed:
"The rest of you might as well come in!"
"So why are we all moving?" Lance asked
"Quite simply, because we're having a surprise audit inspection, sometime this summer, and we don't want you guys seen. Also you'll be back-up."
"Althea and Trinity's back-up?"
"Not quite, you'll also be Shipwreck, Slaughter and Airtight's back-up. Mainframe and Bazooka will also be going with you, along with your adults."
"Why those guys?"
*Because they've all annoyed me recently, so I'm sending them with you for punishment* Hawk thought, out loud he said:
"I believe that they will be best suited to this mission."
"Right." Freddy said
"Why aren't I going?" Wanda asked
"It's a boarding school, I don't want to reawaken any bad memories." Hawk said, patiently
"Do we know anything else about these mutants?" Althea asked
"They'll be all different ages, and good friends, that's it!"
"Oh boy!" Lance sighed
"This is not going to be easy!" Todd said
"Where's Pietro?" Hawk asked, finally pinpointing what was wrong,
"Oh, he's annoying Beachhead." Xi announced
"Why?"
"One of us had to, and this meeting was sudden so we wanted in." Todd shrugged
*There's the other reason why I'm getting rid of them for the summer; otherwise my head's going to explode, and my sanity vanish. Or did it do that years ago?*
*End Flashback*
Althea smiled, she loved Todd, she really did, and all the rest of them. And it wasn't too bad; she'd already made some friends. So all she had to do was survive the rest of the term. It couldn't be any worse than the Pit.
***
This our way of explaining why Althea and Trinity are here! Okay, now we don't own the X-men, or G.I. Joe, they belong to Marvel, and we don't own Althea, Trinity etc, they belong to Red Witch!
But the plot and any other characters are ours!
Please Read and Review!
