And here is the next chapter! Sorry it took so long this time folks! Lots of stupid computer troubles!
BlueskiezRusty: I know... I was so upset. I wanted him to be coming here SOOO badly. I would have attempted to kidnap him... But as you said, wishful thinking... :)
Gremblin: I really tried to condone the fact that Xavier is just trying to do what he thinks is right. I put it more on the Brotherhood's idea of Good VS Evil. And I think I captured that pretty well. Don't you think? I mean think about it, Magneto beleives Human's won't EVER accept Mutants. Xavier beleives Humans just don't understand. So their both dealing with things their own way. So I tried to make it seem like the movie, only Vice Versa.
Jennmel: YAY! Your back! one of my best reveiwers has returned from... Whereever you have been!
ToadMorty: No your accents are wonderful! I just can't write accents well...:stalks with you:Hey this is rather fun.
By the By. I've been thinking about a NEW Toad fic... Heres a summary of it if your all interested. Give me feedback PPL!
Toad died at liberty Island. But he's been given a chance to redeem himself. His task? Help a seventh Grade girl deal with self-esteem issues, and Bullies. But will the girl help HIM fight some of his own personal Demons when he shows himself to her? Set after Liberty Island, before and After Alkali Lake. No Romance. But some nice Angsty Toad.
Whaddya think?
Disclaimer: I don't own the X-Men. Or the Brotherhood.
Toad
It was two days later. Serah hadn't woken up after I had carried her to the med wing. Mystique had said something about getting hit on th' head too many times, and lack of sleep. I was glad she wasn't in a coma. Mystique had some medical training, but not enough for something like that. It was th' third day when I saw it on th' news though.
"Today on the Six o'clock news. Tradgedy strikes downtown New York, a Young mutant Identified as Richard Szollar was killed as he attempted to fend off the police. Richard was identified as a mutant earlier that day. But reports from his parents statements said that he had been one, for quite some time, and had been hiding it."
A picture of th' kid, who had brown hair and eyes, was shown. Along with th' video of th' fight.
"As seen here, Richard tried to engulf himself in flames to protect himself from the police. He was shot as seen here, and died of blood loss, and shock. The presidant refused to comment on this subject, saying only he was deeply agreived for the loss. Richard was twelve years old."
In truth, I thought this was pretty bad. This would affect everybody. They had interveiws from th' kids' parent's, politicians, doctors. Bunch of people. I went online a little later and found a video of the fight. I watched it a few times and was reminded of Serah's little excursion. Thinking about it, I realised that could have just as easily been Serah. Dead.
Serah
When I wearily blinked my eyes open, I saw myself face-to-face with Toad. "WAGH!" I sat up quickly, and was blinded momentarily by pain. "Oww..." he grinned. "Yeah. Mystique said broken rib. Maybe two. You got lucky." I smiled. "Cool..." My entire torso was bandaged, so I was covered. I would have liked a shirt though. I looked around the room. It was white, with a wooden counter with medical supplies, also the metal table I was sitting on. I tried to swing my legs over the side. But he stopped me. "Ah ah ah... Not yet. You need your rest." I grumbled. "I've been getting rest for... How long?" "Three days." "It's time to get up." I tried again, but failed miserably as he pushed me back down.
"Stupid heavily muscles arms..."
That are very good-looking... AH! Stop that!
I whacked my brain with my thoughts. Stupid dillusional idiocy. He grinned. My stomach rumbled. "I am starving... I havn't eaten in days!" "I'll go get you something." He hopped out of the room. I lay there, thinking. Three days i'd been out cold. Had the X-Men attacked them again while I was asleep? If not, would they do it again? That Xavier thought he was doing what's best for me. Well he had no idea what was best for me. He wasn't my dad, or my mother. I giggled at the thought.
Laying there I kinda let myself go. I didn't fall asleep again, just, relaxed. For like the first time in weeks I seriously relaxed. I gotta tell you it felt nice. I closed my eyes and thought about what I should do. Then I came to the conclusion.
Magneto walked in, with Toad, who had a rather large sandwhich, which I proceeded to swallow whole. When I was done, Magneto turned to me. "No doubt you want answers?" I nodded. "That'd be nice." Toad moved to an obscure corner. Magneto sighed deeply. "You remember how I told you Charles is a psychic?" I nodded. "He can also control people. Make them think things that aren't true."
It clicked. It all fit. "Are you kidding me? Isn't he the one talking about peace? Can't he just leave me alone?" "I beleive he will from here on in, Serah." He left, leaving me with Toad. "So it wasn't really you, in the helicopter before then was it?" "Not really. He made us think you were a spy. Wot could we 'ave done?" "I don't know..." I sighed. "So, your you again then?" "Yep, so's Mystique, Sabe, Magneto, and Pyro." He spoke the last name as if it were something foul escaping his lips. I cocked my head to the side and sat up, studying him. " You really can't stand him can you?" "Not at all. Little git has it out for me." I smiled, raising an eyebrow. "C'mon, he can't be that bad. He is a teenager." "Were teenagers." "Your a teen? I could have sworn you were twenty-five." he grinned. "You'd think so. I age slower then most. I should be twentytwo. But i'm nineteen." I laughed. "I'm eighteen. I figure Pyro's somewhere around sixteen or seventeen. He's at the stage when guys think their hot stuff. Don't let him bug you." he raised an eyebrow. "That's kinda difficult when th' little git is acting like he's the greatest thing since sliced bread."
I laughed. "Your funny. You know that?" he cocked his head. "Really? Nobody's told me that before."
Long akward silence insued.
And theres a little bit of fluff for you all! Enjoy. Only a couple more chapters to go!
i feel... Random... PICKLES! ahem... Excuse me... None of my friends are online and I am extremely bored...
This chapter, is the result of four bottles of gatorade, no lunch, and a very impatient author.
