2- A Mutant Brawl
I got up from my spot on the bench grabbing my bag and backing way from the old man slowly inching towards the exit doors. "Quite the interesting talent you have young lady," The old man said walking up to Pyro still with the metal cube spinning above his hand. "Isn't Pyro?"
"Yes it is," Pyro agreed. The two started talking to each other and I kept moving toward the exit hoping that the two were done with me.
"Mac is?" The old man asked me and I stopped in my stacks. "Let my introduce myself I am Magneto, and I represent a organization called the Brotherhood."
"The Brotherhood?" I asked.
"Yes, the brotherhood of Mutants," Magneto answered with a evil like grin. "Pyro has informed me that you don't really have a place to go. Would you like to come with us and be a part of my Brotherhood?"
"Hey, I have a some place to go," I snapped.
Magneto lifted an eye brow. "Really? So your not a run away who has been shunned by her family for what she is?" He asks.
"No…" I answered dumb founded in how he knew exactly what I was doing. He just had a lucky guess, I told myself. "I have a family…."
"You don't have to lie Mac," Magneto told me. "There is no shame in having a family who doesn't except you for what you are. You should never be a shamed of what you are."
"I am not a shamed," I lied. The truth was I really did hate being a mutant it's what made me have to run away from my family, and my friends.
"It's quite alright. You probably been told by everyone being a mutant is wrong, and unnatural, but they are wrong. They are afraid and jealous of you talents," He went on. "We are the next step in evolution and they are soon to be extinct."
Why are the things he saying making since? I pondered. Just then air started to get cold and I could see my breath. "What the….." Pyro started to say just a flash of light came shooting from the sky light above at Magneto, but it was deflected by him some how. A crashing sound and I looked over to see a several people in black suites come in through a hole in the wall of the train station. Great more mutants, what is this a mutant convention or something?
"Ah, Charles little X-Men have come to play," Magneto said to the group of people that came in. "Why do you always have to make an entrance?"
"We would have used the doors but someone had magnetized the doors shut," Said the short hairy faced man. "I think we know who did that bub."
"Oh, did I do that?" Magneto joked.
"Enough Magneto," Said the guy with some pair of red looking goggles on his eyes. "Leave the girl alone and then we can take you back to prison where you belong."
"Come on now Cyclops, do you really think I going back to prison?" Magneto said with a grin. "Besides the girl can make up her own mind about what she wants to do. Not everyone what's to become one of you schools X-Men."
"Yeah and look where it has gotten John," Said a young blond hair guy.
"The name is Pyro Icebox!" Pyro yelled. He pulled out his lighter and made a large fire ball. "Don't forget it!"
He threw the fireball it at the blond hair guy who turned the fire ball into steam with an ice blow from his hand, that fogged up the station. I took that as my opportunity to make way out of crazy mutant fest. I through my bag over my shoulder and ran as fast as my feet could take me out the front doors that I un-magnetized.
My feet pounded down the sidewalks the dark side walks of Boston. I could hear the sound of people chasing after me, but I didn't look behind me. I need to find a place to hide, I looked down ally and saw a fire escape. I repelled my self up with my power to land on the middle part of the metal fire escape. I climbed to the roof where I found a big metal heating duck that I hid behind.
I could feel my heart pounding in my ears from my running. The four year on the track team have finally paid off, I told myself.
"Here you are," Said a voice from above me. I looked up and saw Magneto hovering above me. He landed in front of me. "Why did you run?"
"Well I don't know? Maybe it was the big mutant brawl that was just about to go down," I breathed.
"Yes, that was terrible that those X-Men had to come ruin the moment ," He said. "So have you made up your mind?"
"Are you kidding? X-Men, Brotherhood! I don't want any part of this shit! I just want to blend and be normal?" I yelled at him.
"Well that's to bad," He said. "Mystique"
Just then I felt a pair of hands on my neck, a sharp sting sensation in my neck, and everything went black.
