Chosen Ones
Thanks for the reviews:
ldypebsaby: Thanks for reviewing. I love Spike too much to keep him dead. Well deader anyway. I hope you enjoy the chapter.
Riderazzo: Thanks for reviewing. I can't believe you've only seen a few episodes. I've got the entire series on DVD( it took me an entire year), so if you have any questions about anything Buffy, in this story or anywhere, just email me. I love talking, or typing, about this stuff.
Numbuh 333 half way 2 hell: Thanks for reviewing. Kitty should make it more interesting. I mean we've got two Goths, Brandi's more punk rock (I don't know if I've mentioned that), and now a valley girl.
X-spider: Thanks for the review. I'm glad you like it. Hope you enjoy this chapter.
Last chapter
"Something really weird is going on. Wanda and Rogue get super strength, me and you have the same dreams..." Brandi trailed off.
"Something tells me this is so not good." Kitty looked at Brandi worried.
"Way, totally not good."
Chapter 3
Brandi flipped a page of the third Harry Potter book, and glanced at the clock. 5:15. She sighed, and went back to reading. This book, being her favorite, didn't take much concentration. It had been four days since she'd had the first dream, but images of it, and the others she had whenever she slept, kept flashing into her head. She hadn't really slept well since they started, and Kitty, Rogue, and Wanda looked like they hadn't either.
She read another chapter, shut the book, and rolled over. Maybe I can finally get some sleep, she thought closing her eyes.
BEEP BEEP BEEP
Brandi groaned, forcing her eyes open, and glared at her clock. 5:30.
'Well that was a nice nap.'
"If you don't get up you'll be late for Logan's Danger Room session." Jean informed her in that 'I'm a saint' voice, before grabbing her clothes and walking out the door.
"Ugh", Brandi rolled her eyes, and attempted to get out of bed. Instead she somehow managed to end up in the floor, tangled in blankets.
"Oh, yeah real graceful, Black."
Brandi shut her eyes tight, and muttered, "What has the world got against me?"
"Earth to Black." That annoying voice sung from right in front of her.
She forced eyes open, and glared at the guy crouched down in front of her.
Pietro Maximoff smirked back at her.
"What the hell are you doing her?" She paused after each word as if speaking to a really stupid person.
"Where's Rogue's room?"
"What"
"I have a message for Rogue from Wanda." This time he was the one talking like she was a really stupid person.
"Why did you come in here to ask where her room is?"
"Because your door was open."
Brandi rolled her eyes again. "Across the hall, three doors down."
"Thanks." He chirped in an overly cheerful voice, he knew would annoy her, and sped out of the room.
Brandi gave up on trying untangling herself from the blankets, and just grabbed her pillow with her one free arm.
Pietro stood outside of the door Brandi had mentioned, about to knock, when Kitty phased through it and him.
Pietro turned around, and watched, as Kitty took two steps before turning back around, confused.
"What are you, like, doing here?"
"I have a message, what are you doing here?" Pietro smirked at her.
"I, like, live here."
"Are you sure?" He tilted his head to the side, and watched as her face went from a little confused to 'what the hell are talking about'.
Kitty opened her mouth, closed it, turned around, and walked off down the hall.
Pietro turned to face the door again as it opened, and he saw Rogue standing there glaring at him.
"What?"
"Hey Roguey. Wanda wanted me to tell you to meet her as soon as your session thingie was over."
"Don't call me Roguey. Where does she want ta meet?"
"At the mall. Starbucks technically."
"Tell her I'll be there at 8:00. Buh-bye" She slammed the door in his face.
Pietro stared at the door. "The women in this house are so polite." He rolled his eyes, and sped away.
"Brandi, do you want to, like, go shopping?" Kitty asked sweetly.
"No." They had just finished Logan's session, and the after showering process.
"Please" Kitty put on her puppy dog pout.
"Why don't you get Amara to go?" Brandi didn't look up.
"Because she's, like, totally busy, and we'd still need someone who can drive and has a car."
"Take Jean."
"She's, like, with Scott somewhere. Pleeeassseee."
Brandi rolled her eyes, and looked up, considering it.
"Hey, Brandi?" Brandi and Kitty looked over at Rogue who had just walked in.
"What?"
"Will you give me a ride to the mall?"
"Urgh!" Brandi stood up and threw the magazine, she had been looking at, down. "Fine." She stormed out of the room to get her pocketbook and keys.
"What's her problem?" asked Rogue, confused.
Kitty shrugged, smiling.
Watcher's Council, England
"Rebuilding this place is gonna take ages." Buffy Summers looked around at the mess that used to be the Watcher's Council headquarters.
"Or longer." Willow Rosenberg suggested.
"Hey, Buffy!" Buffy and Willow turned around to see Dawn Summers walking over to them. "Giles says he needs to see the whole Scoobie gang and that it's really important."
"So you're saying there's another Hellmouth?" Buffy asked, surprised.
"Yes. It opened in a small town, Bayville, four days ago." Giles concluded.
"So we're gonna have to send some of the newbies. Right?" Faith asked shrugging.
"No, actually. There are already four there. Four, maybe five, of you will have to go to train them and to inform them of what is happening. I have purchased a book shop for training and research purposes."
"Well there's a surprise. The Watcher bought a bloody bookshop." Spike had arrived the day before, after the medallion brought him back in L.A. Angel and Wesley rejoined the Scoobies, while Gunn and Fred were the new members
"So some of us are going back to a Hellmouth?" Buffy asked.
"Yes."
"Why aren't you going?" Xander asked.
"Both me and Buffy are needed here, and Dawn is too young to go. It would also be a good idea if Andrew stayed behind as well." He held up his hand before Dawn and Andrew could protest. "There is no need to argue."
"Now. I think it would be best if Angel and Spike were two of those that go."
"What." "Why?" Angel and Spike asked at the same time.
"Because we'll need at least two of you to teach them to fight."
"What about the whole 'no sunlight thing'." Gunn asked.
"That is why they will not be the only ones there." Giles cleaned his glasses on his shirt.
"I'll go." Willow raised her hand. "You'll need someone to help with the research."
"And you'll need my humor, and jokes in the face of death." Xander raised his hand too.
"That's four anyone else?" Giles asked.
"I'll go. I can use some action. It's getting way to boring around here for my taste." Faith smirked.
"Alright. Your plane leaves tonight at 7:00. There's supposed to be an early sunset, and you should arrive right before sunrise."(1)
"So soon?" Buffy looked at her friends sadly.
"I'm afraid so." Giles nodded. Now that the business part was over, he would be sad to see two people, he had come to care for as if they were his children, leave.
The group looked around at each other nervously. Five of them would be facing a Hellmouth, again.
"So. You think the dreams I've been having have to do with this new strength?" Rogue asked Wanda. Wanda nodded.
"How did you know about my dreams anyway?"
"I didn't. You've been looking tired, and once I connected the dreams to the strength, I realized you've been having them too."
"I've been looking tired? Have you seen Brandi and Kitty?"
Rogue and Wanda looked up at each suddenly. "You don't think..." Wanda trailed off. "Let's go." Rogue stood up, and grabbed her bag.
"How does this look?" Kitty held up a hideous pink shirt. Brandi fought back a shudder. "Lovely. Can we go now?" She felt and looked very out of place. If one person gave her a funny look she was gonna strangle them.
Kitty looked over at Brandi and sighed. She put the shirt back on the rack, and walked over to pay for the rest of her stuff.
"Thank you." Brandi looked up. "Thank you so much."
She turned around to follow Kitty, and smack into someone.
"Ow." Brandi looked up to see some guy, in a hat and trench coat, glaring down at her.
"X-man." He hissed at her.
"Yeah. And?" She glared right back.
He reached out and grabbed her by the neck lifting her off the ground.
"Hey." Kitty had come back looking for Brandi to this. The guy didn't turn around. Kitty grabbed his arm, and pulled. He dropped Brandi as he was slammed into a wall, leaving a dent. Brandi stood up rubbing her neck. Kitty looked at the guy, confused.
"I didn't, like, pull that hard." She said to Brandi as the guy got up again, and charged.
Brandi, who was very pissed by now, kicked out, slamming her foot in his chest, as he leapt at them. The guy slammed through the store window.
Brandi and Kitty's mouths fell open in shock.
On the other side of the window, Rogue and Wanda looked through at them surprised. Wanda turned to Rogue. "Well I guess that answers our question."
(1) I actually have no idea if this is true, but for story purposes it is now.
Sorry I haven't updated. I had finished this chapter, but my computer is evil, and just as I was writing the author's notes, it shut off. So if this chapter sucks, I'm just gonna say the first version was much better and much longer. Anyway I haven't even been on the computer in like a month because it wouldn't let me on the internet.
