:Serah:

After we had eaten our fish, we kinda sat there in awkward silence. Then he got up. "Well, I bes' be off. Thanks fer your help." He started off into the woods. Panicking slightly, I grabbed my bag and shoved what little contents were out of it back in and put out the fire, chasing after him. "Wait! Wait a sec!" I stopped, ramming into him and falling onto my ass.

"Ow..." He looked around. "Wot?" "Can I come with you?" He knelt down to my height. "No." "Why not? You said that Magneto guy takes in mutants like me." He paused. "Yeah, bu', you wouldn' wanna be there. No' with th' work we do." I sighed. "Look, I may be clumsy, and duck-footed, and hardly coordinated," I named a few more, "But I can help. I'm not as stupid as I appear." He grinned. It was a weak grin, like I was some sort of idiot. "Please. I don't have anywhere else to go." I looked sadly up at him. Then I donned my sardonic grin. "Besides, I was lost when I found you." He sighed resignedly, and helped me up. "Fine. But ya better no' slow me down." "I won't." I followed him.

After a few minutes I grew bored and tried to make some light conversation. "So... What's your name?" "I told you. Toad." I glared at him. "Come on, no sef-respecting person calls themselves Toad!" He looked over at me funny. "Maybe i'm not self-respecting." "That's no way to think. So tell me, what's your name?" He paused, then he said. "Mort." It was more of a grunt. "So, can I call you Mort? It's a nice name. Old-fashioned, I like it." His eyes flicked over to me. Then he nodded slowly. "Ok then! Mort it is! Then I can tell you that my real name is Serahphim." Yep, it was Serahphim. Always a strange name, I didn't tell many people. "Tha's, real pretty." He said. That didn't seem like it was in his nature, more like it was a forced compliment.

"Nah. It's too religious if you ask me. Seraphim's are angels. Real high ranking. Kinda annoying really." He stared at me. "Your weird." I smiled. "Takes one to know one." He grunted.


We traveled on in silence for some time, it was just starting to get dark when we reached open land. I looked into the distance, and I could see the city. He headed that way, and I followed him.

I don't know when we finally reached the city, but godamnit I was tired and irritable. We had walked all through the night and I knew I looked like shit. We were finally inside the city, both of us wearing hooded sweatshirts with the hoods up. Sure there were a few stares, but at least no one yelling the words, "Die Mutant!". Anyway, he led me to some kind of hangar. Inside was a helicopter, and a few other types of vehicles. Mostly sea worthy and airborne.

We just kinda, got in the helicopter, like he owned it. Turned out he did. I was impressed. He looked pretty wiped. Well, that was expected I suppose. When we loaded into the Helicopter and I sat down, I have to say, I fell asleep.


:Mort:

I watched 'er sleep from my spot in the pilot seat. Boy, if I ever met another girl like 'er it woul' be too soon. Well, I guess no'. She was ok. She 'ad potential. She jus' didn' know wot she coul' do. I wasn' sure 'ow Maggie would take this. Jus' lettin' another mutant in when we were on such close wotch by the X-Geeks now. I breifly wondered if our 'ideout 'ad been raided.

Luckily when I landed it wasn'. I jabbed Serah in th' ribs rather roughly and she awoke. "Hey... No more cookies!" She muttered before her eyes snapped open. "Where are we?" I paused. "'ome." She and I got out of th' helicopter to find th' place pretty deserted. We walked through th' 'anger. Then into the 'Living room'. Nobody. "huh..." I turned on the news. It was broadcasting some mutant stuff about liberty Island. She an' I listened intently.

"The news of last weeks liberty Island incident, brought trouble throughout the globe. Anti-Mutant ralley's continue to grow throughout the country as More and more mutant's are causing trouble. We have been saying this many times throughout the week and we will continue saying this. If you see ANY of these four mutants, PLEASE contact us imediatly."

Four Pictures were shown, showing, Mystique, Magneto, Sabretooth, and Toad.

The first on this list is that of Miss Raven Darkholme, possesing the capability to change into ANY human form she sees. The second isA Mister Erik Lehnsherr, he was in custody until the middle of this week when he escaped. Mister Lehnsherr holds the power over metal and magnetic feilds. Third is a Mister Victor creed, who has changed into a type of half cat-like man, posessing claws, fangs, and inhuman senses. Fourth is a Mister Mortimor Toynbee, He has an elongated tongue that can shoot up to 20 feet, he can jump as high as the ceiling, perhaps more, in one bound, also posessing the ability to spit slime at his opponents."

The screen changed showing a girl with long black hair, she greatly resembled Serah, and I realised, It wos.

"This just in, this girl here is one Seraphim Sanders, her parents reported her missing earlier in the week and have found a note in there home telling them she is indeed a mutant, they claim she is dangerous and should not be approached under ANY circumstances. Again, if you have ANY information on these people, contact us..."

I changed the channel to some sport thing. I looked at Serah. She had shrunk to the floor staring at it. "I knew it... I KNEW they'd do this." I couldn' really pity her. Bu' I knew 'ow she felt.


Whoot! another chap well done, i beleive. Enjoy mah faithful reviewers!
