1A/N: Hi, everybody! (People from the Simsons) Hi, Dr. Nick! (Throws rocks at them) SHUT UP! Anyway, in this chapter, Saber's going to start acting VERY weird. ENJOY!
Finola's POV
I slept like a log, as usual, that morning until something hit my head.
"AAUURRGHHH!" I screamed as I toppled out of bed.
I looked up, incredibly angry, into the eyes of Sabertooth. Great, I groaned in my head, Why did Magneto send HIM in?
"What?" I snapped at him.
"Get dressed." he growled and threw me some clothes.
I caught them, turned away from Saber, and looked over them. There was a grey tank top, camouflage pants, and combat boots. I looked back to see Saber still there, staring at me. He had look in his eye that scared me a bit.
"Well? What are you waiting for? GET OUT, YOU PERVERT!" I shrieked at him and (literally) kicked his butt outside.
I got dressed quickly and headed outside, only to collide with someone.
"Hey! Watch where your go.. Oh! Mort! I-I-I mean Toad! I'm SO sorry! I thought you were that pervert, Sabertooth." I cried out.
"It's ok, Lola. I ran into you. I was going to get you and take you to the training room." Toad said casually.
"Thanks."
He smiled and made a swooping hand gesture.
"Ladies first." he said.
I pushed him playfully and walked down the hall next to him. When we finally got to the training room, Magneto, Mystique, and Mr. Pervert were waiting.
"Today, Finola, we're going to see how well you fight. You'll fight against each member separately. Are you ready to begin?" said Magneto.
"You bech ya!" I cheered.
"You will fight against Mystique first." and with that, he, Toad, and Sabertooth left.
Me and Mystique waited awhile till Magneto's voice came on speaker.
"Begin!"
Mystique lunged at me with a side kick, which I easily dodged. I flipped over her and kicked her in the back. She turned and punched me square in the stomach. I back flipped then, as she was coming towards me, lunged at her with my claws extended. She gracefully dodged it by doing the Bridge. What she didn't expect, though, was my tail. It hit her on a nerve and, just like in the mountains, she was knocked out.
"Excellent!" said Magneto through the speaker.
Mystique's unconscious form lifted up from the ground by a block of metal, caused by Magneto no doubt, and left the room. Toad came in.
"Now, this time, you cannot use your powers. Only Toad can use his. Begin!" shouted Magneto.
Toad's long tongue came lashing out at me. It wrapped around my ankle and tripped me. I fell fat on my back and in no time, Toad jumped up and was about to land on me. I rolled away quickly and sprung up. He once again lashed his tongue at me, but this time I was ready. I caught it in one hand and yanked him forward, sending him to the ground. I walked over to him, his tongue till in my hand, and stepped on his back, clarifying I was the winner.
"Good." said Magneto.
I released Toad and he stood up.
"Good job." he said.
Sabertooth came in as Toad left. Oh joy, I groaned in my mind.
"Both of you can use your powers this time. Begin!"
Saber lunged at me, claws extended. I ducked and did an uppercut, sending him flying to the wall. He sprung up and roared. I, naturally, oared back at him and ran full speed a him. Then I let my wings out and flew upwards, grabbing Saber along the way. I dropped him a good few feet from the ground. He landed with a thud and seemed unconscious. I landed and withdrew my wings. But when I was about to clarify myself as the winner, Sabertooth sprung up and wrapped one of is arms around me. I squirmed to get out of his iron grip, but proved futile. Then, he did something shocking. With his free claw, he started to run it along my cheek. Then, he did a low growl. It wasn't menacing, it was more like a... A PURR! I struggled even more to get out of his grip, only to succeed in him gripping tighter. I was scared. Then, fortunately, the others came in.
"That was really good, Finola." Magneto said as Saber dropped me.
Trying not to seem obvious, I scampered to my feet and walked quickly to Toad.
"So, uh, is Mystique ok?" I asked, pulling out a random question.
"She's fine, but wot 'bout you, luv? You look a bit scared." he asked.
"It's nothing." I said a bit more quickly than I would've liked it.
He cocked an eyebrow, but said nothing.
"I'm hungry. Let's go eat." I said.
I grabbed his arm and dragged him to the kitchen, Sabertooth's eyes burning holes into my head the whole time.
Like it? Please tell me if you do.
