Hello and welcome to Chapter 4 of To Make A Wish. I am your author Marvlix. I would like to take this time to take care of a few things, disclaimer, and reviews, ECT.
I do not own any recognizable plots and or characters. In other words, I don't own anything Marvel related…yet
Telepathic Angel I will get to the jott as soon as possible. It's not going to be full-blown jott for a while though. So please be patient. F.Y.I. Jean might still like Remy for a while also.
Rogue Gal: Rogue will not be kicking Jean's um butt any time soon. Sorry. I'm a jott fan. I do agree with you about the Scrouge part. I'm not a fan but it fits with the story. Sorry for the confusion too.
Amazing Red Phoenix: I totally agree with you on all three accounts and boy will the karma be a (it's my way of censorship I use the symbol fonts. I think that it's funny.
On With the story!
To Make A Wish
Chapter 4
There's nothing like a death match in the Morning
The smoke had finally cleared. Everyone was coughing. Everyone, that is, except for the brother hood who were all currently unconscious. Pyro and Sabertooth were in a tree hung over the reminisce of a wall. Colossus was untransformed and lying at the base of a tree. Gambit and Phoenix were sprawled on the ground next to each other. Gambit had tried to calm down Jean before she had let out an energy burst but didn't get there in time.
"Vhat vas zat?" Kurt asked said.
"I believe," Storm began, "that it was the girl. Her powers, as do mine, seem to emulate her emotions. She was quite upset with Cyclops when this happened."
"So like what do we do with them?" Kitty asked.
"Throw her in a ditch," Rogue mumbled.
"Not even she deserves that," Cyclops said looking at the unconscious redhead.
"The professor will probably want a word with 'em," Wolverine said. "Nightcrawler, Cyke, help me would ya?" Logan began to pick up Sabertooth and sling him over her shoulder. Kurt teleported Colossus and Pyro onto the blackbird, Kitty and Alex carried Gambit, and Scott carried Jean, while Rogue scowled and glared the whole time.
"Jealousy isn't pretty on any girl," Storm said to Rogue breaking her out of her hateful trance. "You should know that Scott will always love you and wouldn't leave you no matter how pretty the next girl is."
"Thanks Storm. I really appreciate it," she said not totally convincing.
"Yet you still doubt the truth," she told her. "He has know her all of 5 seconds and he has known you for 5 years."
"Ah know that Storm. It's just that I feel like this time is different," Rogue said sadly.
"Only time will tell," Storm said. "Until then I suggest that we board the blackbird, otherwise we just might be left behind."
"I'll go on watch of the enemy," Alex said flexing a muscle. "I am after all the least frightening and good looking of us all."
"Vell then since you are ze strongest zhen you should be zhe one who watches over Sabertooth," Kurt said.
"I mean I'll watch over Phoenix. That way she wont be freaked out if she wakes up to one of you guys," Alex said.
"Are you zaying zhat I'm fat and ugly?" Kurt asked.
"Well you have been eating a lot of gutbombes lately," Alex said.
"I'll have you know zhat chicks dig the fuzzy dude," Kurt said.
"No one's going to watch over anyone," Logan said from the cockpit. "We're only two minutes from the hanger. Got it."
All of the "patience" were taken to the med lab and secured. Xavier had examined them all with the help of beast. It was strange that every other member of the Acolytes had some sort of injury or another Phoenix seemed to have no marks what so ever. She just seemed to be mentally exhausted and a bruise on her arm from falling on it.
"So what's going on Charles," Logan asked after he called him and Ororo into the war room.
"We, I, have never encountered anything like her before. She has amazing empathic powers and she's still growing in her powers," Xavier said.
"Professor, what are we going to do with her?" Ororo asked.
"I think that the best thing for humanity would be to hand her over, but I have another way. Maybe I could have her mind altered and make her think that she is on our side," Xavier hypothesized.
"Maybe we can convert her on her own free will," Storm suggested.
"I doubt it," Logan mumbled. "She's like me, hard to break in. She seemed to have a thing for the Cajun. Maybe if we can get him to stay we can get her to stay."
"That does seem to be the most logical thing to do," Storm said.
"Yes, but how do we get Gambit to comply, he is one of Magneto's followers and has been blinded by vengeance and power," Xavier said.
"You said it yerself Chuck," Logan said. "Her mind is too dang powerful we haft to attack it when she's least expecting it. Either that or we mind wipe the Cajun into thinking that he's one of us to try and get her to stay here until she's safe."
"I suppose that you are right," Xavier said. "Unless I use Cerebro while she sleeps I can then maybe just temporarily have her under control. That way it will be much easier to have them both here."
"Sounds good Charles. Now can we go? After pathetic performance, I think that it's time for a danger room training session," Logan said with an evil grin on his face.
"An excellent idea Logan. I never could have imagined that my X-men would come into contacts with something like this before," Xavier said. "Storm could you help me?"
"Of course Professor," she replied.
"I think that I'm going to need all the help I can get," he said.
In the Kitchen:
"Dude I saw her first," Alex said.
"Now way I saw her first," Kurt said pointing to himself.
"Can you believe that they're still talking about her?" Rogue asked Kitty in the corner of the Kitchen. They were both eating leftovers of Ororo's dinner from last night.
"Yeah she's like totally be like 3 year's older than like they are," Kitty said glaring at the pair of the love struck boys.
"I saw her first."
"No I did."
"I did."
"I did."
"ENOUGH ALREADY!" Rogue yelled. "We all saw her at the same time remember? Or were you to busy drooling so much that you could have drowned us all?"
"Dude I did not drool it was Kurt."
"LIAR! It vas you who vas zhe droller."
"You."
"You."
"You."
"You."
"You."
"Oh would you both just shut up!" Rogue said leaving the room extremely pissed.
"Vas ist los mit sie?" Kurt asked in German. Just then Scott had walked into the room.
"Don't look at me," he said. He then continued to look for something to eat in the fridge.
"Like don't pretend Scott," Kitty said.
"Don't pretend what?" he said.
"Oh you know what I'm talking about."
"No I really don't."
"She like really thinks that you like like that Phoenix girl."
"What? Why? How? Are you insane? Have you been eating your own food again?"
"No wait. What do you mean 'have I been eating my own food?' again?"
"Um never mind." Scott said and left the room and went upstairs.
Then everyone's favorite person went on the newly installed intercom system, which, by the way, Beast had installed and was still getting numerous evil glares from everyone because now Logan could yell at them no matter where they were. He liked to use this new tool to wake up all the students at the same time at ungodly early hours in the morning for sporadic Danger Room Sessions.
"Attention X-men," said the evil voice a.k.a. Logan. "Report to the Danger Room immediately. If yer not down here in 5 minutes than you'll be having extra training sessions at 5 in the morning on Saturday morning.
"Don't we already have danger room sessions 5 in the morning on Saturday anyway?" Alex asked his friends.
"We don't," Kitty and Kurt said in unison.
In the Danger Room
"This is going to be your hardest most challenging most grueling training session yet," Logan said with his usual evil grin on his face. "You are going to face your greatest opponent yet."
"Yea for us," Alex whispered to Kurt.
"You'll be having to do extra time on Saturday. Since you're already doing a 5am session you'll start at 4," Logan said.
"Awe man!" Alex whined.
"Now as I was saying you'll be facing your most challenging and most powerful opponent yet," Logan tried to say whom it was, but was interrupted, yet again, this time by Kurt.
"We're going to face Magneto! Everybody Run And Hide!" Kurt yelled and proceeded to run around the danger room.
"It ain't Magneto."
"It's not?"
"It's not."
"Then who is it?"
"It's me," said a female voice out of nowhere. It was Phoenix. She had just walked out with Professor Xavier.
"Ve haft to go against her?" Kurt asked worried.
"She has decided to join our side," Xavier said triumphantly. "Now I know that she has awesome power, but so do some of our more dangerous enemies. That is why she has so kindly offered to take part in this training session to show you what some of that power might be like. I will watch you from above as will Wolverine." They both disappeared into the elevator and then reappeared through the glass. Xavier's voice was heard once more. It said, "Don't be alarmed. You will have some bumps and bruises by the end of this."
Rogue just continued to glare at Jean. She thought that this would be the most enjoyable thing that she would ever get to do. Take down little miss perfect. Of course she wasn't little miss perfect here. She thought that it wouldn't get rid of the feeling of sweet satisfaction though. Phoenix's costume, which resembled Haley Barry's Cat Woman Costume except that it didn't have that x thingy on the bottom and was red, began to glow like fire.
"Is she doing that to psyche us out?" Alex asked his older brother and team leader.
"I don't know," Scott replied.
"We're should use the attack move that we use to take down Juggernaut," Rogue suggested.
"Juggernaut? Are you serious? That could kill her!" Alex said.
"She's powerful though she should be able to take care of herself. Besides if she were and enemy than you would want to use it before she could hurt you," Rogue said bitter.
"She like has a point," Kitty said.
Before they could say a word all of them, with the exception of Rogue, were thrown back against the wall. Instead of falling down though, they remained up against the wall.
"I know what you're thinking Rogue." Jean said with a smile on your face. "You're afraid that I will steal you precious boyfriend from you. You're wrong. I have no interest in your pathetic boyfriend. I have my own who loves me. I know what you have done. I am thankful for it too. I now have something that I never had with Scott Summers. I have someone who loves me and isn't afraid of what I can do. He was never shy to tell me. He told me the first day we met. He told me he had never seen anyone like me before. He said he loved me."
"How dare you go into mah head and screw around in there," Rogue yelled at her. Rogue was going to advance on her but she was stopped mid step. "You witch! Why don't you fight me without your mutant powers?"
"Fine but they," she shot a glance at the remaining X-men. "Have to stay out of it."
"Deal!" Rogue snapped. All the X-men were dropped to the floor with numerous thuds and thumps.
They stood opposite of each other. Rogue made the first move but Jean dodged her first punch. She in turn gave Rogue a right hook square on the jaw.
"Do you think just because I have empathic abilities that I have never fought before?" Jean asked her smiling. Rogue massaged her jaw.
Rogue went after Jean time and time again, missing every time.
"I grow bored of this," Jean said and gave Rogue a second punch this time it made her stumble onto the floor.
"We should stop this," Xavier said up in the control room. "This is not what I had in mind."
"No. Leave 'em. You said yourself that they have never faced anyone like her before. Rogue will learn how to deal with her first," Logan said.
"Very well," the professor said. "I trust your judgment."
Jean continued beating up on Rogue. She used many martial art skills that they had saw Wolverine use. Unfortunately Scott was the only one who had paid attention to Logan when he told them how to counter them. Rogue was now breathing heavily. She had a fat lip and many bruises. She didn't want to surrender though. She wasn't going to lose to the one person that she hated most. Fortunately for her, Jean had just dropped kicked her and was going to ram her up against a wall when Xavier came wheeling in.
"I believe that this will be all for today. Please go and change and I will have Cyclops show you around the grounds Miss Grey," Xavier said.
"Yes professor, but first I would like to see Gambit. Is he by any chance awake yet?" Jean asked worried for her companion.
"Yes he is," he said smiling warmly at her.
In the Med Lab:
"Remy!" Jean cried out in happiness. "You're alright." She ran over and hugged him."
"Dat's right cher. Remy just a bit bruised from ole Cyclops blast," Gambit said smiling at his angel. "You have become quite de excellent fighter, no?"
"Remy I've been thinking," Jean said sitting next to him on the bed. He took her hand. "Maybe we should stay here."
"Why cher?" he said taking her hand.
"If we stay here, we can be happy together without being afraid of being attacked. We can get the proper medical help. We can be safe. We can be together without having to be someone's lackey," she explained to him.
"I think, cher, that you are right," he said kissing her hand.
"You ready," Scott asked Jean from the doorway.
"What's he doing here?" Gambit asked glaring at him.
"The professor asked him to show me around the place. Don't worry though, I'd much rather stay here with you," she said giving him a quick kiss and leaving with Scott.
On the Grounds
"And these are the grounds," Scott said taking her outside. "The garden is over there, down a little bit is the basket ball court, and behind the house is our pool. We also have a baseball field."
"Great," Jean said looking at the garden. These flowers are wonderful. Who grows them?"
"Oh a storm does," he said taking a seat next to her on the bench.
"They're beautiful."
"Yeah you are," Scott said without thinking.
"Excuse me?" Jean said with anger in her voice.
"I mean the flowers are beautiful," he said quickly.
"Sure you did," she said and went back to looking at the flowers. "You know I was once a student here."
"You were?" he asked confused.
"Mmhm. But then one day I lost control and my parents were upset saying that the professor didn't do his job and that they had another offer. Another school had actually wanted me and that I was to attend there. That's when I met Remy." She told him.
"The Professor never mentioned you before," he said.
"Did he ever mention to you a girl that went by the name of Marvel Girl?" she asked him.
"Maybe once or twice but that's it," he said. "He said that she would be the only person to surpass him in his telepathic abilities, and if she ever went evil, or Magneto's side in this case, that all of humanity would be doomed."
"Did he really say that?" she asked him. "He's never told me that before."
"Well you didn't exactly stay around long enough to be told now did you?" Scott asked her. "She was probably after your time."
"I you dolt I am Jean 'Marvel Girl' 'Phoenix' Grey," she said staring at him.
"You were Xavier's first student?" Scott asked surprised. "I don't believe. When are you leaving?"
"Move over teacher's pet because this time I'm not leaving pal," she said playfully and left back to the mansion. Rogue had seen and heard the whole thing from her room. She was starting to regret to wish for what she did.
I would like everyone to know that this is officially the longest thing that I have ever written in my whole entire life. It's about 9 ½ pages long. That's right count them 9 ½ at least that's how many there are when I hit the print preview button.
That last part with Scott and Jean was for Telepathic Angel. Now hopefully she'll get off my back for the jott thing for a while. I am now bringing in the fourth couple of the story the one I was so afraid to put in the story because then no one would probably have read it. And it's (drum roll) Jemy! It's never been done before so I had to do it. It's Jean and Remy for those of you who have the problem solving problems that I do. See you next update. I hope to update this once more before school starts. Oh and sorry that this chapter is so long. Please review. I don't mind flames for the Jemy part. Oh and one more thing. Please go to my profile and read and review my other stories. I'll really appreciate it.
