Okay I combined some of the chapters to make it easier.

Meetings

Betsy Braddock walked through the metallic door and sat down in a small chair. It was the only chair besides the big cushioned one on the other side of the table. A few minutes later the Head of Intelligence walked in and sat down. All he did was looked at her for a couple of minutes. "So, Ms. Braddock let's talk," he said when he finally spoke.

"About what?" she retorted.

"Let's start with your death," he said raising an eyebrow.

"Okay," Betsy started, " when we were in Valencia, I was contacted by Roma..."

"Who is she?" he interrupted.

"She is the Guardian of the omniverse, the daughter of Merlin, Goddess of Life..."

"I get it Miss Braddock," he interrupted, "continue, please."

"So...I was contacted by Roma to go to the Starlight Citadel. So... did her thing and I was there. She just wanted to talk about all the things were going on earth..."

"I thought she control earth?"

"She controls reality...Thank you very much. Anyway she needed an insiders opinion. I told her that I had to get back to earth because my team mates, but she insisted on talking. She sent a clone so my team wouldn't worry. So we talked business then we talk family, and got carried away..."

"Couldn't she just freeze reality?" Mr. Crammer asked laid back in his chair.

"You can only play with reality so much, Mr. Crammer." Betsy responded with annoyance in her voice. "So when it came time for me to leave, she had just learned that my clone had been killed. She asked me if I wanted to go back to Valencia but I said no."

"Why?"

"I have been in the save the world business to long, and when she stop so many villains thing have the tendency to want to kill you. So, if everyone thought I was dead I could actually live. I knew how to block out Cerebro so the X-Men wouldn't know what was going on. So I moved to Seattle. I dyed my hair back to brown, it's original color, and lived a... life. But about three years later I found a girl named Sydney Porinsa. She was totally depressed about being a mutant so, I took her to New York. After a lot of questioning from my old teammates I finally convinced them that I was me. It was only a couple of months after that when Xavier's motives were revealed. So I took my personal student and left with Emma Frost."

Psylocke walked through the door where all the others were waiting. "Man, that guy isn't the friendliest I've ever met," she said when she entered the small room. "Lucas, he wants to talk to you next." Bishop groaned and walked into the room that Betsy had exited. "Hope he does well," she said looking at the others. "The man is treating it like some sort of interrogation.

"That's what people of power tend to do, honey," Neal Sharra said as he walked over to his girlfriend.

"All you have to do is show him who's boss. Even though he is ...but he doesn't have to know that," Emma said as she sat down into her chair next to Sean.

"So, Why do we even have to talk to him?" Danielle Moonstar asked .

" Because if we don't then he'll put all of us under arrest for hiding something," Psylocke answered.

Suddenly the door on the other side of the room opened and three teenagers walked in laughing. "What's so funny?" Dani asked her students suspiciously. "You haven't been using your powers have you?"

The young man with golden skin answered trying not to start laughing, "No, there was this lady at the snack machine..." but he started laughing in mid-sentence.

"Well, when we got to the snack machine this lady looked up at us and shrieked really loud causing the whole area to look over. The whole place was in panic." A young girl answered. She had a bright red colored hair and yellow eyes. It was Sydney Porinsa, Psylocke's student.

"Why was the place in panic?" Moonstar asked.

Sofia stepped forward and answered. "Look at us. A girl with red hair and yellow eyes. A boy with gold skin and then a normal looking person stuffing her face with moon-pies..." she to started cracking up laughing. The adults shook their heads in embarrassment. The three teens made their way to an empty corner and sat down with their newly purchased snacks. Minutes later the door opened and Bishop entered the room.

"Mystique. Mr.Grumpy wants to talk to you," he said pointing into the other room.

"Mr. Crammer, so we meet again," Mystique said as she sat down in the small metal chair.

"Only last time. You were blackmailing me," he answered.

"Well...Alot has changed since then," she retorted.

"While we're on the subject...Why should I trust you to be apart of a wealthy group with the trust of the government," he asked.

"You shouldn't trust me," she started, "It would be stupid to trust me. It's stupid to trust anyone."

"So you think its better to walk around suspicious all the time?"

"I didn't say that. You don't have to look over your shoulder all the time but you do have to be prepared for everything," she responded flipping her red hair back.

"Okay, so what position would you have in the New Hellfire Club?" he asked.

"Black Knight...you know on the chess board its a little horsey," Mystique responded with sarcasm in her voice.

"I don't know about you but when I think of black I think of evil. And when I think of knights I think of deadly."

"Yes, I am deadly. Would you like to test me?" she asked lifting one of her eyebrows. Mr. Crammer didn't move. Mystique, finally satisfied that he knew his place, smiled and shook her head, "Now, Mr. Crammer, what would you like to talk about today?"

Mr. Crammer still looked scared as he started to speak, "Umm, W...We're finished," he finally said, "Could you please send in Mr. James Proudstar?" Mystique looked at him as if she were waiting for something else when he spoke again. "Please"

"No Problem," she said as she stood from her chair and walked to the door. "Goodbye...for now."

The room was starting to empty until Moonstar, her students, Wolfsbane, and Sydney Porinsa sat in the scattered chairs. The door opened and the five of them looked up. Orora "Storm" Monroe walked out with a mocking smile on her face. "Danielle, he wants to talk to you next," she said. Dani stood and walked past Storm when she grabbed her arm. "Be careful, the man has a way with words, don't let him intimidate you." Dani nodded. "Could the man really be that bad?" she thought to herself as she entered the questioning room. She sat down properly crossing her legs. The middle-aged man looked tired, he had bags under his eyes and the wrinkles on his forehead seemed to hang low. She waited as he read over the files sitting in front of him. Dani looked around the small room waiting for the balding man to begin.

"So...," he finally said, "Ms. Moonstar, How long have you been with Xavier?"

"About...twelve years," she answered calmly. As she spoke, she began to twiddle her thumbs. Dani never really was one for speaking with people she didn't know, unless they were children.

"Would you consider you and him to be...what's the word?...close?"

"Not really," she began, " The Professor never really took time out to spend with the New Mutants. And he didn't have much to do with X-Force. I myself never really liked him much."

"Then why ,Ms. Moonstar, did you stay?"

Dani paused. "The others were right," she thought to herself, " He's trying to trap me. Make me tell him something I don't mean." Dani thought carefully before she answered. "Because, Mr. Crammer, I had already hurt two people and I thought if I had my mutation under control that the hurting could stop." Mr. Crammer looked at her and opened his mouth to speak, but Danielle already knew his next question. "I trained under a man I didn't like because he was the only person that I thought could help me...and he did." Mr. Crammer looked dumbfounded. Dani just smiled thinking that she had him beat until he asked the next question.

" Why did you accept a job working for a man you didn't like?"

"Because I wanted to help young people just like he did. And since I had the chance to do it...I did." Dani answered.

"While we're on the subject...Where are your students?"

"Josh and Sofia are in the back room... And Laurie, David, and Noriko are back at Xavier's School." Dani tried to hide the worry in her voice but it failed.

"Why are the other three still there?"

"Because I wanted them to stay." Mr. Crammer lifted his eyebrows in interest. "I wanted them all to stay there until they graduated and then decide what they wanted to do by them self. But...David and Sofia refused and came along. I pushed David the hardest," Dani's eyes begin to fill with tears. "He wants to be a author...and I told him that if he came with me and left school he would never fulfill his dream." Tears rolled down Dani's face and she wiped them away with her sleeve.

"Just one more question," Dani nodded. "Are you romantically interested in someone?"

Danielle's eyes widened in surprise. "No." Her eyes blinked as she stood nervously. "Can I go?"

"Yes, and please send in Ms. Sinclair."

Rahne looked up as the door opened. Dani came out wiping her eyes. Immediately her two students ran to her asking if she was okay. She assured them that she would be okay and walked over to Rahne. "He wants to talk to you," she said laying her hand on Rahne's shoulder.

Rahne just stood and walked through the door.

When she entered the room she found the chair and turned it around strattling the back rest. She rest her arms on the top and looked at the strange man. He stared back. The two stared for awhile before he broke the silence.

"Ms. Sinclair, Have you ever sworn revenge on someone?" he asked. She just nodded. "Who?"

"Mystique," she answered sternly.

"Well she was just in here and you must have seen her way before then why is she still alive?" he asked. Rahne just stared. "Well?"

"I don't want to talk about it." For the next few minutes all they did was stare. "Since we're just waisting time can I go?" she finally asked.

"No, But you can tell me why you've changed."

"What do you mean? You don't even know me."

"From what the others tell me you used to be a quiet, shy, nice girl."

"Yeah used to be..." she answered motioning to her clothes. A white t-shirt covered by a black leather jacket, and her baggy black pants adorned with silver chains. "Soul searching does things to you."

"I see..."

"No," Rahne stood up. "I don't think you do. Has someone ever killed your mother? Have you tried day in and day out ?" She walked to the desk as Mr. Crammer stood up. Suddenly she jumped up on the desk and her skin turned to fur. "Mr. Crammer...You will never see me again. Except in hell." With that she turned around got of the desk and walked to the door.
