Chapter 5
"Who sent you?" Xavier said, not seeming alarmed as the situation was, taking the girl in the orange turtle neck tank top with matching shorts was just confused.
"The great Magneto has wished for your death," X-T said walking forward. She knew what she was saying, but it felt like she wasn't the one talking for herself.
"He's gotten you brainwashed, hasn't he? I can help you-"
"Nobody can help me. Only Magneto can help me," X-T knew she would never say that. She thought and thought, and realized that she not only wasn't controlling on what she was saying, but how she was walking.
"The helmet," She thought. She reached up and tried to take the helmet, but it would not budge.
"What the-" X-T yelled. Her feet dragged as she tried to pry off the helmet.
"Child, calm down. Let me help you," Xavier said lending out a hand. Without thinking, X-T swung an extended claw at Xavier.
"I told you before, old man. No one can help me," X-T yelled. She extended the other claw in her hand, reached up with both hands to her head, and cut straight down the middle of the mask. The two halves of the helmet fell beside her as X-T breathed heavy.
"X23?" Xavier said looking closely at X-T. X-T's pupils narrowed in like cat's eyes.
"DON'T YOU EVER CALL ME THAT! I AM NOT HER! I AM NOTHING LIKE HER!" X-T roared as she took two swings at Xavier. Xavier caught her wrists and looked into X-T's narrowed eyes.
"Calm yourself, X-T. Let me help you," Xavier telepathed into X-T's head. X-T growled.
"GET OUT OF MY HEAD!" She yelled, kicking Xavier's wheelchair. Xavier flew backwards and crashed out the window. X-T, blinking, watched as Xavier fell. Quickly, X-T flew forward and grabbed Xavier's hand, him now being suspended in the air. X-T started to slide forward, pieces of glass from the window cutting into her stomach. With all her might, X-T managed to pull herself up and Xavier into his study. They both breathed heavy as sweat traveled down their faces.
"A-are you ok?" X-T said looking up. Xavier looked up at her, seeing that her pupils were not narrowed. Before Xavier could say anything, the study room burst opened with thrust. X-T stood up quickly and extended her claws. In the door way, was a shot man with deviled horned styled hair, and the exact same three claws on both claws like hers.
"What's goin' on in here?" The man spat gruffly. X-T took a step back in surprise. It was the man from the Weapon X Project file.
"Y-YOU!" X-T said scared. The man looked shocked.
"X23?"
"NO! I'M NOT HER! I'M NOT!" X-T yelled closing her eyes as fists formed in her hands. She turned and ran, jumping out the window.
"HEY!" Logan said following the girl.
"Logan don't hurt her!" Xavier yelled as Logan jumped out the window.
Logan followed the scent of the girl in the study, since it was too fogging to find her by
sight. He didn't know if it was X23 or not, but the girl sure could pass off as her. The scent grew stronger as Logan reached the gardens of Xavier Institute. He then heard the sound of soft cries not to far away. Logan found the girl by a flowerbed of roses that were dead, sobbing into her knees.
"Hey, are you ok?" Logan said walking forward. The girl looked up, angry written on her face. Her pupils narrowed. She extended her claws and jumped forward, knocking Logan off his feet. She sat on top of him, scratching away his skin on his chest.
"IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT! I COULD HAVE BEEN DIFFERENT! I COULD OF HAD A NORMAL LIFE. BUT YOU AND YOUR STUPID WEAPON X PROJECT HAD TO SCREW UP MY LIFE! I HATE YOU!" X-T cried, every swing of her claws becoming more thrusting into Logan's chest. Logan growled out and tried to get the girl off, but for some odd reason, he couldn't. All the sudden the both of them heard a disturbance in the trees near them. X-T's pupils went back to normal as she looked up at the trees. All of the sudden, a girl with brown hair and a black suit jumped out of the trees, tackling X-T off of Logan and onto the ground a few feet away. She had two claws coming out of each hand and one claw coming out on both of her feet.
"X23!" Logan yelled sitting up, clutching his stomach as it started to heel. X-T looked up at the girl that was pinning her to the ground.
"So, you are the notorious X23? Hi, I'm X-T, the hairy man and your clone," X-T said. She lifted her feet up and jammed them into X23's stomach, pushing her off with such a force that sent her flying backwards onto the ground. X23 flipped in the air and landed on her feet, her claws now extended.
"Who do you think you are? Coming around here like you own the place or something!" X23 yelled with a growl.
"Aw, where's your sense of fun, X23? Besides, I'm here on business," X-T said with a smile. X23 growled.
"You're nothing but a spoiled, little brat,"
"Oh, I'm hurt, but complemented. You actually think I wanted this? I got breaking news for you, hun," X-T said running forward, taking a swing at X23. X23 dodged it and kicked down low, knocking X-T off her feet. X-T got on her forearms and growled.
"Deal with it," X23 whispered into X-T's ear. X-T this time even felt her eyes narrowing. Swiftly, she struck her claws into X23's chest. She gasped for air as her eyes widened. X-T smiled, glaring her teeth.
"How does it feel to die, X23?" X-T said smugly. All of the sudden, she was hit upside the head with something soft, but yet hard at the same time. She flew from X23 about five feet away. She saw Logan standing in front of X23 with a tree limb in his hands. X-T stood up. She suddenly felt blood coming from her nose. All the sudden, pain kicked her in the head. She clutched her head in pain. Images danced around in her mind, but they weren't hers. She saw the man clawing his way out of a green tube. She then saw an image of the girl wearing a helmet on her head clawing away a bunch of robots with a breeze. A few more images appeared, but the pain blocked X-T's sight of seeing them. She opened her eyes widely. She couldn't feel blood coming from her nose, but she could feel it resting on her upper lip. Logan and X23 stood in front of her with confused looks on their faces. X-T looked from one to the other, then suddenly pulled a detonator out and threw it between. She flipped backwards as it went of, throwing Logan and X23 in the air. As the smoked cleared, X-T stood a good distance from the two of them. Logan sat up, and looked over at X-T. They stared a good moment at each other. X-T closed her eyes and turned on her heel. She ran, disappearing into the fog of the night.
