Hey, I'm back with the next chapter. Sorry it took so long though. It's just that I'm writing two stories at once, and I've got a government exam… which is finally over! Whoo hoo! Well, after I finished the next chapter of my other story, I went to this. Enjoy! I hope I get more reviews than only 6 though. Read and Review!
But before we go on with the story, replies to my reviewers
Amazing redd phoenix: You will find out…in the last chapter!
jacx: Of course this is a Jott story! Why'd you think that I made Scott slap her?
Diaz F: Yes, I am a Jott fan. Definitely. I do have my reasons and you will find out soon. Don't worry.
Telepathic Angel: You'll find out why he slapped her soon, okay?
Akira Ruyiko: Yes, I know it's you. You so… didn't have to ask.
twinxbloomsparx: I agree. What took you so long, Bee? And thanx.
madisonavenue:Yeah, they do. Don't worry so much.
Well, that's it. I'm so sad. :(. There's so little. Hopefully there will be more for this chapter. This chapter will be kinda short. On with the story…
Jean tried to forget about the incident. She didn't know anything anymore. She used to be so sure of her surroundings. Her hair was duller. Her once lively eyes were always downcast.
'I need some air. That's all, she thought. But in her heart she knew that wasn't all. The love of her life had broken her heart and she didn't even know why. She looked around at the teenagers around her. All happy. " If only my life was that simple." She said to herself.
Ororo who was following Jean from a distance, tried to llook out for her. Unfortunately, there were many people around and the kept blocking her view of Jean. She stayed worried about Jean although she thought that nothing was going to happen. This comforted her alittle.
But she was wrong and she was about to find out.
Jean stood at by a road to watch other people doing their own thing spotted Proffessor wheeling across the road. She heard a honk that came from a distance. She realized that a speeding truck was headed for the Proffessor.
Without thinking twice, she jumped out and pushed Xavier's wheelchair out of the way.
Ororo saw this and tried to save her but…( bang )… too late.
The truck driver had tried to stop but he was going too fast. He hit her in the stomach and she went flying about two or three metres.
Scared, the driver sped off. And turned which, by the way, had run over Jean.
Jean saw that the truck was coming towards her and managed to use her powers for the first pair of wheels. But, after that, she was too weak to do anything about the second and third pair. By the time the third was over and the truck had disappeared out of sight, Jean was unconscious.
Proffessor Xavier could do nothing but watch, stunned. After getting over the shock kind of, he wheeled toward Jean.
Ororo, on the other hand, was too stunned to do anything. Tears rolled down her cheeks as she watched Jean fall unconscious. She ran towards Jean.
Jean managed to become conscious for a while and found herself on Ororo's lap, who had kneeled down and put Jean's head on her lap.
" I could have saved you. I should have saved you." Ororo told her.
" T-tell Scott… that I-I …love…him." She whispered softly but loud enough for Ororo and Proffessor X to hear. Then, she fell into unconsciousness.
An ambulance soon came for Jean. ( A/N: A passer-by called for the ambulance.) Ororo and Proffessor followed them.
At the hospital, Jean was sent to the Intensive Care Unit. When the doctor came out, Ororo and Charles asked him about Jean's condition. ( A/N: I'm going to call the Professor Charles from now on.)
" I'm afraid that her injuries may be fatal. Although there is hope for Miss Grey to survive, it is quite slim. I think you should prepare for the worst and hope her condition will stable soon. Otherwise, she might die." The doctor explained. "Right now, her condition is very unstable so it is very hard to tell if she would live through this." He added.
"Please, you must save her! She can't die. She just can't." Ororo pleaded. "We will do our best." The doctor told her. With that he walked off.
Ororo and Charles went back to the mansion to break the news to Logan, Scott, Kitty and the others.
Bobby and Amara had been outside the mansion talking about Jean when they saw Ororo's car park outside. Thy saw Ororo help Charles out of the car. For the first time ever, they saw silent tears running down Charles' cheek.
"Uh oh. Not good." Amara whispered to Bobby. Then, it hit them. "Jean!" The gasped at the same time.
"Will all students please assemble in the library. Now." Ororo's voice boomed from the loudspeaker.
Soon, everyone was in the library. " Hey, where's Jean?" Rogue asked. " Who cares." Scott replied. Kitty, who was sitting next to Rogue glared at him which was really rare as she's usually the happy one. Scott felt quite uncomfortable and kept his mouth shut.
Charles, Logan and Ororo came in looking very solemn. " Students, I have terrible news to share with you all. Jean… is in the hospital." Gasps filled the air." Is she okay?" Scott asked. His eyes were wide and filled with worry and fear.
"I'm afraid not, Scott." Charles replied. " According to the doctor, Jean's condition is very unstable and she m-m-might die any time. " Ororo continued. "Is there anything we can do?" asked Kitty. "Sorry, squirt. Nothin' you can do. Only sit and wait." Logan told her.
Tears were streaming and there were whispers of comfort filling the room(A/N I hope you know what that meant) Kitty was crying the loudest but Scott was the most shocked. "No.' he whispered to himself. "This is my fault.." he told himself. But Charles heard him. "No, Scott. This was no one's fault but mine. I should have been more alert." Charles told him.
Everyone was dismissed but they stayed in the library. Weeps, wails and cries were heard. No one was smiling and no eye s dry. Everyone loved Jean. Even silent tearvs streamed down Logan's face but he went out to hide them. H loved Jean like his daughter. She had been his oldest female student. His little girl. One of the people who could make him laugh. A one of the people with the famous puppy-dog eyes.
Scott was still in the library. Shocked about the horrible news he had just received. He didin't believe it. But he knew he had to. It was a fact. It had happened and there was nothing he could do about that. He knew that clearly. "This is all my fault. I shouldn't have hit her." He sighed.
The next day, nobody went to school. Kitty was still bummed about what happened. She flicked a botton on the remote and the tv came on.
"A tragic incident happened here yesterday as a truck hit a teen. Two known people to the victim were present. It turns out that the teen had tried to save the older man who was on a wheelchair. A woman had been quite dramatic and the victim was sent to the hospital soon after." The reporter reported.
Kitty flicked again and sigh. The last thing she needed right now was news on the incident. Eveyone came into the room quietly. No one ate breakfast and one by one people left the table. Scott was the first.
Scott went to his room to think. "Why? Why? Why her? She was so sweet. She has to be okay. She just have to. If anything happens to her I'll never forgive myself. " He thought.
Someone knocked on the door. "What!" he snapped. "Ororo's voice rang out," Scott, Kitty, Kurt and the other are gonna go visit Jean. You wanna follow them?" Scott's eyes grew wide.
He threw on his clothes and rushed to get his car. "Who want a ride to the hospital. I'm going now. Kitty, Kurt, Rogue And Amara came running towards him. "What are you waiting for? Let's Go!" Kitty yelled at him/. He was startlerd at first but then nodded.
They headed for Scott's car and hopped in.Scott drove as fast as he dared to the hospital.
Soon, they reached the hospital, after a technical difficuty in Scott's car, they arrived twenty minutes late. Kitty asked the receptionist for Jean's room. "ICU13" she said simply. They gave her confused faces. She sighed," third door to the left. That way." She pointed them toward a hallway.
They gave her a word of thanks and sped off.
