Kotir watched the mansion. "Be safe Kitten." He whispered as he saw her leave for school.
With Kitana gone from the mansion Kotir followed suit, leaving through the shadows of Bayville, occasionally scaring people as he moved from shadow to shadow. Eventually Kotir left the shadows and walked, he was now at the outskirts of town near a large abandoned building. Floodlights that were constantly on, even during the day, surrounded the building, making it impossible for Kotir to sneak up.
Walking up to the doors Kotir knocked three times. While waiting for the solid steel doors to open Kotir examined his clothes. His ash grey shirt was ripped and torn from his running through the bushes, but his blue denim jeans were fine.
With the doors now fully open Kotir walked inside and stripped off his shirt, revealing a well toned body. A large jaggard scar ran down his back, obvious against his tanned skin, something he inherited form his mother. This scar was a constant reminder of his life before living with Kitana, Wanda and Gambit.
"Well?" Asked a female voice from the shadows.
"Well what?" Kotir replied, accepting a shirt from a servant.
"How did it go? Will she be joining us?"
"No."
"Did you even ask her?"
"No."
"Then how do you know she won't join us?"
Kotir stopped. "Because I know my own sister. And if I wasn't wanted by the FBI and everyone else I wouldn't even be here myself." He said before storming off to his bedroom.
"We'll see about that." The voice said softly.
-----------------------------------------------------------
"So who was in your room last night Kitana?" Akayshia asked.
Kitana turned to the dark skinned girl. "No one, why?"
"Oh come on Kit. I was on sercurity last night. I saw a figure creep into the mansion, and then saw Logan calling you into his office this morning. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that someone was in your room." Akayshia replied, tossing her long dark hair as a cute guy walked past.
Kitana turned to Akayshia, her amber eyes darkening. "No one was in my room Akayshia.. And my name is Kitana, not Kit. Not if you like your precious hair as it is I suggest you leave me alone and stop asking me questions I have already answered." She said before she stalked off.
Kitana sat down at a lunch table, her wings out. The teachers had stopped telling her to withdraw them, as they indicated that the air mistress wanted to be left alone. This stopped all but one person. A human boy by the name of Ryan.
"Whats wrong?" Ryan asked as he walked over to Kitana.
Kitana looked up into Ryans blue eyes. "Nothings wrong."
"Then why do you have your wings out?"
Kitana quickly withdrew her wings.
"It's about the person that snuck into the mansion last night isn't it?" Ryan asked, placing an arm around his friend.
Kitana draped her arms around Ryan's neck and burst into tears.
"I miss him. Everyone treats him like the bad guy, and that the war was all his fault. But I know it wasn't. I know Kotir is good and wouldn't have done something like that unless forced to." She said in between sobs, keeping her voice down so no one else but Ryan could hear.
Ryan held her until she stopped crying.
"I know you miss him, and although I didn't know him all that long before this whole mess started, I miss him as well. Now come on, lets see a smile before we go outside. There's a fair breeze blowing out there, and the sports teacher wants the wind gone so he can start the javelin tryouts."
Kitana looked up at her friend. Kitana's wind powers were favoured by most of the teachers that taught outdoors. She was one of the few mutants who could use their powers at school, so long as they helped the school. She stood up and offered Ryan a hand.
"Then we best not keep him waiting." She said with a smile. Using her powers always calmed her down.
-----------------------------------------------------------
"Ah, good, you're here Kitana." Mr. Kland said.
Kitana nodded to the sports teacher.
"How much of the winds do you want gone?" She asked, letting her hair down out of the ponytail it was in.
"Just a little, it is important that the students get used to a little breeze. If you could keep it even during the whole tryouts so it makes it fair, that would be great." He said, before turning to the students.
Kitana closed her eyes and Ryan walked over next to her, making sure he was ready to move his friend incase a stray javelin came this way. Dispite this being a mixed school which allowed both mutants and humans, there were still people here that hated mutants.
Kitana's whole body tensed up and the wind died down.
"That's perfect Kitana." Mr. Kland called.
Half way through the tryouts A huge gust of wind came down through the tryouts, sending the javelin that was in the air flying off course. Kitana's eyes snapped open and she focused on the javelin, trying to use the air current around it to make it miss the students. A thud alerted Kitana to the javelin's landing, the scream that followed made her think she was unsucessful.
"She's trying to kill me!"
Kitana collapsed. She was angry with herself for letting the wind get out of control like that, it was unlike her to lose control like that. A crowd started to gather around the fallen girl. Spreading her wings Kitana stood up, ready to take off. She wasn't ready to face everyone.
"Kit wait." Ryan called.
Kitana looked up, her amber eyes meeting his blue.
"I need to go." Kitana said, leaving the ground with a single beat of her wings.
"Kitana!" Ryan yelled.
-----------------------------------------------------------
"I'll prove him wrong yet." A female voice from the bushes said.
Yup, thought I'd go with a typical cliffhanger that leaves the reader wondering who the evil woman is, and what she wants. Anywho, the next chapter should be up in the next two weeks.
