Title: Torn

Chapter 1: Twister

Pietro Maximoff sat on his bed his leg shaking as he was confined into the small room called his. His faster mother had found his stash and thrown it away along with grounding him from everything except bed, basketball, and a pen and paper. God it sucked. He could only play basketball at school during a game.

He watched his foot. God he hated his mutant power. He had only been grounded for 20 seconds and it seemed like 20 days. He had already counted all of the holes in the ceiling tile and every strand of carpet hair. He had finished his homework for the next 3 weeks and had NOTHING to do. maybe he could charm his way out of it?

As long as it was just his foster mom he knew he could... But if Kevin was home he'd be sure to get the shit beat out of him for even asking if he could do anything... but that wasn't knew. He had lived with the Kellers for 3 months now. They were his 12th family in 6 years; all together he had 19, though, that didn't include his real family.

He quickly checked the house and block for Kevin before coming down the steps at a normal rate in search of Sindy. He walked over head down and tugged as if he were a little kid at the end of her skirt. She looked over at him and her face softened. "Sindy, I'm sorry. I swear it's not mine. My friend from school had it and... I didn't wanna see him get hurt with the stuff... I just didn't wanna rat'em out either..." He let his fake tears fall down his face and hide his face in his palms.

"Oh Pietro..." Sidney said gathering the 16 year old boy up in a rather big hug. She was a heavy set woman with a heart as large as a saints. She never killed a living thing on purpose. Pietro wondered how her and Kevin ended up together, but never asked.

He wondered why God had made her barren. She was such a loving woman. He also wondered why she couldn't have been his REAL mother. he felt a pang of guilt at lying to her but gulped it down and cried some more. "Please forgive me Sindy..." He whispered.

"Oh, of course Pietro. I'm so glad that it really wasn't yours. I knew you were a good boy." She said kissing his head and smiling brightly.

"Thanks Sindy... I'll go back to my room now, I just needed to know you forgave me." He smiled brightly and headed up the steps, his trademark smirk on his lips as she called out he didn't have to go to his room and suggested he go play outside or go shopping or something fun. "Really? Even after I lied?"

"Well of course Pietro, Forgiveness is what we are expose to do." She shooed him off and he laughed as he walked down the street. He speed up and formed a small twister at his feet, he stopped and it kept going right into a brand new sports car. He snickered and was off again, this time stealing a bunch of CD's and Movies before the alarm even sounded on his way out. He passed a group of girls and decided to have fun by quickly unhooking their bra's. He laughed , as he watched from the alley way, which was empty, or so he thought.

"I don't have your money right now." Kevin's voice said in a growl. A few men laughed.

"Well, you best be gettin it before I have to do somethin ta that whale of a beast you call a wife." A tall man laughed.

"You leave Sindy out of this."

"Sindy... Nice name, bet that her parent's neva thought of callin her lar-ass." The rest laughed and Pietro found himself growling. he was not going to let them talk about Sindy in that way.

"Hey, when yea screw 'er can yea even see her face over the mounds of fat?" A guy asked.

"Is that why you don't have kids? Confused her belly button with her-" The thin man fell as Pietro's fist made contact with his stomach.

"Shut the hell up about Sindy like that!" Pietro yelled in a rage.

The rest stood in shock and Kevin blinked seeing his foster son pissed. He blinked again as Pietro seemed to appear behind Sam, the tall man, once he charged at him. "What's this? Didn't know you shared Kevin."

"Leave the kid alone." Kevin said eyeing Pietro with hate.

"No. If you aren't gonna take up for Sindy then I am!" Pietro said loudly. "And it's pretty fucked up Kevin. I've been her son for 3 months and can't stand these goons saying that shit about her! You've been her husband for 13!"

"Stay out of this Pietro." Kevin warned.

"Your not my father." Pietro said with a menacing voice. "And you guys have no idea what you're messing with." He smirked at the guys and in the blink of the eye had them hanging by their shoe laces up the street lamp pole.

Kevin snatched for Pietro but he was to fast. "What the hell are you?"

"A mutant..." Pietro says with a hint of resentment. "Look, I know you don't like me and I don't care if you beat the hell out of me... Sindy is like the mother I never had and always wished for... Please don't send me away."

"You're going back." Kevin said with his jaw set tightly. "I'm not letting you around my wife freak. No wonder you moved around so much. Who'd want you?"

"You'll take me away from her because I'M different! but those bastered talked about her and all you did was let them!" Pietro yelled and in a fit punched Kevin. He blinked as Kevin flew back busting open his head and not getting up. Blood seeped slowly towards him and he backed off in shock. What had he done?

A/N: Oh GOD I loved this chapter! Pietro showed emotion! Though he was still his cocky bastered self in most of it! Love you all! MUCH THANKS TO KIKYO TABITHA YUKINA! She is uploading this shit for me! Much love Kim!
