Ch. 5: A Situation
By: NelleFang-Slayer
Sorry it took me so long to put this chapter up. I hope you like it. Thanks to all the reveiwers it means a lot to get your ideas.
Kaddy: I can't leave her there.
Emma: I'm doing what I'm told. She is the leader on this mission, and that mission is to get you safe. She is doing exactly what she thinks is best.
Kaddy: I can't let her die because of me. She doesn't even know me.
Emma: I can't force you to stay Kaddy, so do what you have to do.
As Emma finishes her sentence she realized Jamie was under attack. After she took out the older man a teen threw fire at her.
Emma: Oh no. Brennan get to the forth floor Jamie is in trouble.
As she said this Kaddy jumped out of the Zanth and ran toward Jamie who was still on fire screaming. Kaddy put her hands up and the fire went out and the boy who threw the fire flew back hitting a wall. At this time a man in a long black coat came running up the stairs to the unconscious Jamie. The older man walked closer to Kaddy.
Magneto: Come with us Kaddy. Or should I call you Freaker.
Kaddy looked up angrily.
Kaddy: You will pay for hurting Jamie.
Brennan touched Jamie's head.
Brennan: Jamie? Can you hear me?
He looked up at Kaddy who had used her powers to throw Magneto into the flame boy.
Brennan: Kaddy we have to get of here now.
Brennan picks Jamie's limp body and carried her to the Zanth. Emma was standing in the opening worried about Jamie's mind. Jamie was even more frightened of fire then a normal feral. Emma looked up at Brennan who was walking into the Zanth with Kaddy right behind him. Brennan put Jamie on a pull out bed and strapped her in. He then went to the pilot chair and turned on the communicator.
Brennan: Adam, Jamie is hurt really bad get the med lab ready. We're about fifteen minutes away.
Adam: Okay set the course and stay with her Brennan. And Brennan don't freak out she is one strong fighter. She'll get through this. Emma what happened.
Emma: There was a boy who threw a stream of fire at Jamie. She was on fire for about thirty seconds then Kaddy made the flames disappear.
Adam: Alright you will need to use your powers to keep her comfortable until you get her. I don't know how this attack will affect our Jamie.
Emma: You got it Adam.
Emma walked back to see Jamie. She could feel her pain, it was unbearable. She sat down next to her and held her hand while Brennan and Kaddy were putting wet cloths on her burns. Rogue, Bobby, and Jubilee were shocked at what had just happened. The Zanth flew itself back to the school and landed on the front lawn with the Helix 2 right next to it. Brennan had Jamie in his arms and group one walked out of the air craft. Shalimar, Jesse, and Lexa ran out of their Helix to see how Jamie was.
After everyone was in the school Shalimar had seen Jamie and almost collapsed. Jesse caught her and helped her walk behind Brennan. Adam appeared from the elevator and they all walked to the mad lab. Brennan placed Jamie on the cot and Adam started to examine her. Kaddy was the last to come into the room and went and sat in a corner on the room. She didn't know what to do.
Kaddy in head: Why did she do this for me? She doesn't know me? She could've died.
Adam turned to his team and the X-Men kids.
Adam: Don't worry about her. My Jamie will make it through this; she doesn't give up without a fight.
Shalimar: She must have been terrified.
Kaddy: Why? Okay I would be too but…
Shalimar: She is a feral. Ferals are terrified of fire.
Emma: Also because of what happened when she was with Echart she is even more afraid.
Kaddy: Well is she going to be okay?
Voice: Yes she will. As Adam said she is a fighter, and she doesn't give up easily.
Kaddy turns around to see an elderly bald man in a wheelchair. He smiled at her and continued.
Voice: Kaddy my name is Professor Charles Xavier.
Kaddy: Jamie told me about you.
Xavier: Did she? And believe me that she will make it. Adam has told me that she has beaten death twice.
Voice: Make that three times.
Everyone turned to see Jamie was awake.
Brennan: Jamie!
Jamie: Hey you can't get rid of me that easily.
Adam: You alright?
Jamie: Just peachy.
Shalimar: You're lying.
Jamie: Yeah well, you would too.
Shalimar: I know.
Shalimar bent down and kissed Jamie's forehead.
Adam: Rest is for you.
Jamie: Come on!
Adam glares at Jamie.
Jamie: Fine, but tomorrow I'm getting up and about and there is nothing you can do to stop me.
Adam: I could drug you.
Jamie pouts. Adam gives a little laugh.
Adam: I'm just joking.
Jamie glares and Shalimar starts laughing.
Jamie: Hey hyena I'm fighting you tomorrow.
Shalimar: You're on.
Kaddy: Um… Mr. Xavier could I stay a little longer, I promise to stay only a few minutes.
Xavier: Of course, you may stay.
Adam takes a syringe and injects a liquid into Jamie's vein.
Adam: Here, this is for the pain.
Jamie: Pain reliever check.
Everyone starts to file out. Every Mutant X member made sure they got to give Jamie a kiss on the head before they left.
Kaddy: Hey Jamie?
Jamie: Yeah?
Kaddy: Why did you risk your life for me?
Jamie: You don't deserve to go through anymore than you have already.
Kaddy: Thanks, but that didn't exactly answer my question.
Jamie: Let's just say I know what you have been through. No one should have to go through that, ever. And thank you, I saw what you did to help me. Thanks you saved my life.
Kaddy: What are friends for?
Jamie smiles and giggles a little.
Jamie: Meds are finally kicking in. You should get some rest. See you later.
Kaddy: Alright, but where do I go? I have never been here Jamie.
Jamie: Xavier is just outside. He'll explain everything.
Kaddy: How did you… right feral senses.
Jamie smiles and Kaddy walks out. And sure enough Xavier was right outside the door waiting for her.
Xavier: Come we have lots to talk about.
Xavier and Kaddy reach a huge office, Kaddy's jaw dropped when she saw the windows they were as tall as the ceiling. Everything in the room was so beautiful.
Kaddy: Wow. This is a very cool office.
Xavier: Yes well I've always thought so. Please have a seat.
Kaddy takes a sit and Xavier rolls over to the other side of the desk.
Xavier: Before we start our discussion on yourself I believe you have an abundance of questions.
Kaddy: Yeah I do, but most of all I'm wondering why you're even trying to help me at all.
Xavier: Because we are mutants some who were created by accident, and some born this way. Most mutants will do what is right and help others who are lost and confused and scared. Other mutants think themselves as powerful beings that were given their gift to rule others or just plain destroy humans. Some of those mutants you meet tonight.
Kaddy: Magneto?
Xavier: Yes. Magneto and I have a past together as well as some of the teachers and students here at this school. Magneto thinks that mutants are the next to rule of the universe without the non-mutants, the "normal" humans.
Kaddy: How could he do that?
Xavier: Well a few years ago he tried to turn normal humans into mutants by a way of a machine powered by a mutant who can control metals.
Kaddy: Himself?
Xavier: Well he did it once to turn Senator Kelly, but a few hours later he was dead and Magneto was extremely weak.
Kaddy: So if he tried to turn many people it would kill him, so he would need a more powerful mutant than himself. Who would that be?
Xavier: Rogue. Her power to absorb another mutant's abilities for a while was perfect for his plan. It nearly killed Rogue and it would have if Logan hadn't saved her.
Kaddy: Now what is Magneto going to do since that plan failed?
Xavier: Well after the Liberty Island incident he tried killing humans through another mutant using me. But he failed once again. Now he is making an army of mutants who will follow him. He will create war against all non-mutants and any one else who stands in his way.
Kaddy: He is kind of odd and very creepy.
Xavier: Really? That is interesting. So what else in on your mind?
Kaddy: Why would Jamie save me or even risk her life for me if she doesn't know me?
Adam: She does know you because a long time ago she was you.
Adam walked into the room startling Kaddy.
Xavier: Kaddy this is Adam Kane, Jamie's…
Adam: Well I'm a friend of her father's but once he died I kind of stepped up.
Kaddy: Oh well it's nice to meet you Mr. Kane. Now how is Jamie like me?
Adam: Well you see her parents died a while ago and it was hard for Jamie to cope with that and being a mutant; plus a cruel man kidnapped Jamie and did horrible experiments on her and quiet recently it happened again.
Kaddy: Oh my god that is so horrible. How did she deal with that?
Shalimar, Brennan, Lexa, Jesse, and Emma walked in.
Shalimar: Because she had us. We were her family and we made sure she wouldn't get hurt again.
Jesse: And that is what we want to do for you, protect you.
Lexa: No more running. It is time to face your life and make it what you want and learn how to protect yourself from your powers and others.
Kaddy: Thanks, all I want is to keep my powers under control. So how is Jamie?
Emma: To tell you the truth she has been distant with all of us, even Adam. We can't exactly know how she is if she doesn't tell us.
Brennan: And plus she is a feral and they kind of hide their feelings, right Shal?
Shalimar: Well even though I am mad that you brought it up I do agree with you. It is just a nature of a feral to keep emotions in.
Emma: Exactly and that is why I think Kaddy should talk to her.
Kaddy: How can I get her to tell me?
Emma: Just talk to her about anything and everything. She just might open up to you since you don't pester her about how she is feeling like the rest of us. Especially Adam.
Kaddy: Okay I'll try. Is she up yet?
Jesse: No I think she will be out for a few more hours.
Xavier: I think we can continue our discussion tomorrow Kaddy. Everyone should get some rest; it was a very exhausting day today.
Kaddy: Where am I supposed to sleep?
Xavier: Adam will show you to Jamie's room, she won't need it at the moment.
Kaddy: Alright.
The Mutant X team leaves with Kaddy except Emma stays behind.
Emma: Professor is it alright if we talk for a little while?
Xavier: Of course Miss de Louro. What is it you want to talk about?
Emma: Well I have this problem…
