And here is the second chapter. Still trying to think of other plot-points but, you know how the muses work... They give a little and expect more from you. BTW meet my muse, Cooper.

Cooper: Hi.

Me: Cooper, has no eyes. Just black sockets. He has green hair, and wears alot of camoflage.

Cooper: Yo.

Me: He isn't very lingual.

Cooper: Ingrate.

Me: nevermind...

Aherm... On with teh ficcy.

Disclaimer: I don't own the Brotherhood. BUT I OWN THE SCARY SHADOWY DUDE!

BTW Nytiak, Remember when I said I would try to work in a stalker? Well here it is! well, ok he's not really a stalker... but he sort of is...

Serah

I continued my way down the street. Passing by alley-ways, there were few people at this time of night, and the few who were simple nodded to me, in greeting. In the night I was a completely different person. I wasn't afraid of what people thought of me because they couldn't see me unless they got close enough. Normal people and there crappy eyesight. It kinda made me laugh. I must have gotten all that human inferiority from Magneto. Passing down a side street I looked back. Was somebody following me? "Hm..." I continued my way. Something plopped on my nose.

"Huh?" I looked up, it hade begun to drizzle, what my dad had once called, spittin'. Just a few drops now and again. Still looking up I saw... A helicopter. It was just an outline in the sky, but I could hear the blades, and I was reminded of Mort's chopper.

I turned around. I am SO insane. "MORT!" He leaned out. "Wot?

I kissed him.

I left.

I shook my head, releiving my mind of the memory. I felt bad for leaving. I really did. But I didn't want them to have to continuously save my butt every time the X-Men tried to, 'bring me to the right path'. So I left. It had been that simple. Nother more, nothing less. It wasn't until after I left did I really realise I loved Mort. More then anything. But, I had no way of contacting them. No way of telling him. So I just kept going. I never got over it though. Probably never would.

It started raining harder.

Toad

I wos in th' air. In th' helicopter. I liked it. Watching th' rain spatter on th' window. I landed near th' bay in an obscure area. It wos late, nobody would find it. Sneaking quietly under my hood downtown, I looked around for an open bar. I just need a drink to clear my head. Too many thoughts were there and I needed something to stop them. I get drunk real easy, must 'ave something to do with being part Toad. One wos enough to give me a bit of a buzz. So there I was, searching for a bar.

And having NO such luck.

"How hard can it bloody be to find a place to get a damned drink?" I grumbled as the rain started to get a little harder. If I didn't get back soon i'd probably be stuck in the helicopter until the rain let up. Sighing I started backtracking to th' helicopter. I had come out here for nothing.

I paused. I had this feeling. Like, maybe I should stick around a little longer. So I kept walking.

New POV

A shadow paused. Shadow's could pause? It kept moving, it's hood securley fastened around it's head. By the build of the figure, it was most likely a man. He strode through the empty, rain-streaked streets onto a corner. He stopped apbrutly.

He had better not be late. This was TOO important to miss.

He looked at the watch on his wrist for the tenth time that night. 1:53 was just barely visible in the gloom. If that mutant didn't get here soon he was just going to leave. His men had been waiting all night for this and it would not be messed up now! By 1:57, the one he was waiting for had come.

"Do you have the information I need?" "Indeed." the other dark figure was obviously a woman. She smiled. "You promise not to hurt them?" "I never go back on my word.." He grinned himself. "Good..." She then pointed to the corner on the other side of the street. "It will be there, at precisely 2:30. You have, a half hour to get your men ready for it. Oh, and I beleive someone else will be..." She pointed a ways away from the corner. "Just there. For the taking. They will be vulnerable." He smiled again. "You have been most useful, my dear little psychic."

"As long as you leave us be, I shall never tell a soul." She frowned. "As we agreed." "Good." She left. He pulled out a walkie talkie.

"Ready your positions."

"Yes sir."

Cooper: ... Moron...
