JD: I'm getting back to normal for this story yey! Before it was in the barely 2k and now back in to the 3k! Enjoy my craziness!
Ebitch: Lets see how well you can pick out who the other two are.
Everyone Else: Yes Ray and Alina are IMPORTANT they are VERY IMPORTANT BUT they are not MAIN characters. I was asked by one of my friends to make a Ray story so she will be a main and shows a different view I'm still in thought process of it though I think that would be hilarious because she's very... unique. Amber's story is still in the works but will be post after finished with the basics of it!
Classical, Remy, and Victor
Next day I woke up got ready for the day and then remember that no school today. I went down where I saw Alina with a bunch of kids then Jean came storming through. Her flaming red hair was going everywhere and eyes set on Alina. "Alina Jennifer Orph!" She screamed as she got closer to the girl.
The kids scattered really fast and I walked over to them. "Yes, Jean?" She is just as confuse about this as I am. I can feel the anger coming off of Jean.
"Why did you break Bobby's arm yesterday?" She demand of the younger girl.
"He grabbed my butt and I was told by my daddy if anyone ever touches me someplace like that to either brake that arm or break another body part that isn't easy to heal." She said matter of fact like with out stepping down. I'm shocked and slightly happy because the feelings coming off of Jean changed to amusement.
"Your daddy sounds like an interesting man." She sounds slightly amused too.
They both laugh till Scott came in. I knew behind his shades he was shooting me a dirty look. I just smile and wave. He walked over and Jean wrapped an arm around his. Right then I felt a spike of jealously run through me. Just as fast as it came it calm down. I glance around noticing others around then sigh. That could have come from anyone.
Jean shot Alina a nasty look and Alina grab my arm pulling me a different direction. Outside we went and my senses went on high alert. Something's wrong.
"Alina, go back inside." I told the only non-mutant in this mansion. She gave me a worried look but did as told.
"Come out." I growl looking to the direction the feelings same from. A cat walked across the ground and slowly shift before my eyes. She turn in to a tall pretty woman with golden eyes that looks so familiar. Her fire truck red hair slick back. She's scaly looking not fuzzy like other her shade blue mutants I know.
"You must be the new teacher I've heard about." The woman said slowly walking around me.
"And if I am?" I asked crossing my arms.
"Awe don't get all big and tough on me." she coo making me want to punch her. Something about her just rubs me the wrong way. "I need you to give Charles a message for me." She said and glared at me.
"Give it to him yourself." I waved her off starting to walk away.
"I can tell you what your real last name is, Miss Harper." She said. That made me stopped. Not even the professor knows what it is.
"I don't believe you." I growled.
"Don't? You sure?" she sounds so smug. I close my eyes and concentrate on the professor.
'I'll be there in a moment Harper.' The professor's voice in my head calm me down and I turn looking to this unknown to me woman.
"Raven, good to see you again?" The Professor said and I could feel caution around me like a fog and I glance to both him and the white hair weather witch walking with his chair.
"Charles, I came here with a message from our good friend." She said with a smile. I felt a sting inside of me. I glance to her. That was a lie. The message isn't of a good friend.
"How is Erik?" More fog. It was getting hard to breathe with these feelings flying like this.
"Good." Another sting. UGH! "For someone that is stuck in a plastic box." She add the last part and then I got aggravated and walked away.
I went inside and watched from a distance with Alina, Ray, and the couple Jean and Scott. "What she want?" Jean asked me.
"To give the professor a message. She says she knows my real last name which not even the professor knows." I told them what she said to me.
"Why didn't you stay out there with them?" Ray asked. She's more worried.
"Tension was to thick. They are making a fog that's hard to breathe, she was stinging me with every other thing she said." The couple and Alina didn't understand but Ray did. She and Amber always understands me.
"You know before you came here the Brotherhood never came unexpected by for any reason." Scott growl at me. I just glared at him then looked back to the professor and blue woman, Raven wasn't it? Pretty name, suits her. I lean to Ray and she carefully held me. By time they came in a small crowd form.
The professor smiled to us and spoke to everyone with an even voice. "Nothing to worry about go about with your day." Storm shot me a look when I start to follow the professor. "She didn't tell me and blocked her mind from letting me know what it is." He answer my unasked question. "We will find out about your past just takes time." He answer yet something else I wasn't directly thinking.
"I know just if she knows..." He cut me off.
"If she knows anything it'll come out eventually." he said un-offended by my train wreck of thoughts rushing around my head.
"I'll go. Probably be hanging out with Amber today." I inform him walking away. He didn't stop me. Ray and Alina saw me and start to give me twenty questions. That's when the guy who came to our apartment before we knew we were all mutants showed up. Ray who is like a sugar hyperactive kid just froze. I try to concentrate on her but end up concentrating on the bigger guy. She's standing still looking up at him very quiet. Pete bow his head to her about to say something but instead she ran off ahead of us and I believe she was blushing. Can miss blunt and hide nearly nothing hyperactive Ray blush? I've never seen it.
"Wow." Alina said shocked. I look to her and she started to giggled. "Hi! I'm Alina." She said that softly waving to the young man before us.
"They call me Pete." he said in a slight Russian accent. I smiled and took a few steps away walking to the direction Ray ran off to. The friendly giant is harmless, just huge.
A few minutes pass and I found her outside of the elevator waiting for Alina and I. "Where Alina?" She squeaked. That's another thing I've never seen her do.
"You like him." I hum and she glared at me.
"Do not." She growled and I start to sing which made her go after me but easy to dodge her when you know where to step to dodge her moves she uses every time!
"You like him, you like him." I sing chanted.
When Alina came to us I did get quiet, I'm going to be tormenting her for next few days over this so rather not hurt her more by letting others know about her little crush. I think this is first time she has ever gotten a crush or any feelings for someone else like that. Way she's acting and trying to hide it, it seems that way. So cute.
We all got in to the elevator and went down to the bottom floor where the lab is. Once out and we heading to the direction of the suppose to be resting Amber we saw she was curled up under covers sitting up with a book. Figures. Hank is hanging upside down by the rafters reading the newspaper with classical music playing. I don't know what it is but it is really old and I mean like Beethoven old. "Hey." I said softly as we all gather around Amber who looked up to us and waved.
"Hey." She said cheerful but I can tell by her voice she's still tired.
"We came to see you." Alina said sitting on her bed with her.
"Well not much to see. I'm getting better and all. Nothing to worry about." She said forcing a smile. I still worry though. Her feelings are still strange to read. She likes Hank that much I can tell and by his feelings it's jumble. I felt multi of feelings coming from him and trying to figure them out is a pain. I roll my eyes at it and lean back as Ray got bored and started to bounce around the bed doing air guitar to the classical music playing. I started to giggle with Alina and then Amber got in on the act and started to bang her head with the rock and roll sign on her hand. That tipped me over with giggles. I felt a lot of amusement coming from behind me and I turn to see Hank watching us from corner of his eye. Alina was laughing so hard she couldn't breathe right.
I smiled and looked back to my two sisters and friend as they goof off. Nothing can ever replace memories like these. These when for just a little while we all feel like humans, normal. Hank jumped down and walked over to us. Amber got up and grab his clawed out hand and softly pull him to the open space not far from her bed. They started to dance and I grab Ray and Alina's hands pulling them with me to about the same place. We were dancing and laughing enjoying our day. Even Hank was having fun. I felt a fire in my gut but it dissolved like it was never there and I knew someone was upset slightly but then this cheered them up.
For a few minutes I thought back to when Sir would grab me and Amber and make us dance with him and few other of the orphans that lived with us. It was always a way to cheer us up. It always worked to cheer us up. Something that will always be ours. It's a memory that I know Amber or I don't want to ever lose. It's something that makes us, us. We were able to get through the dark times because of old country or old rock dancing till we couldn't stand any more. We were able to survive anything because Sir showed us how to through music and being ourselves. Music became in a way a must to us.
Before long Hank decided that Amber can eat with us upstairs and so we all went to the elevator. I held on to Amber softly as Hank stood not far from us. His blue eyes watching her closely as she giggled talking to us. Her laughter, giggling even, sounds so sweet and musical. It's always have. I smiled wrapping my arms around her. She wrap her arms around me in a loving hug. "I love you." She mumble in to my hair beside my ear.
"I love you too." I told her softly where the others didn't hear. She rest her head on my shoulder as the elevator open up and we walked out of it. We walked down the hall, Hank on one side of Amber me on the other. Alina and Ray are in front of us talking away and giggling like two school girls. It's times like these I'm happy we found Ray and not Xavier, times like this I feel like I'm part of something greater.
'You are.' I heard Xavier's voice in my head.
"You have to do that don't you?" I asked turning my head to the bald sweet man rolling up to us.
"My apologizes, Harper, it's just a force of habit, hard to control." He said smiling and I smiled too. That's not a hundred percent true but I'll accept it.
"I see Hank finally decide ya were fit enough to get out of his lab." A voice I didn't know said. I turn to look over my shoulder. I saw a man I didn't know walk over to us. "How are ya, cheri?" He ask bowing his head and taking Amber's hand kissing it softly.
"Fine, Mr Remy." She said in a soft whisper. I felt something uncomfortable from her end and his was that lust?
"Hello, I'm Amber's sister."
"Ah, yes you must be Harper." He smiled to me. "My name is Remy LeBeau, Gambit to my enemies." He smiled a smile that would normally make my knees go weak but something about him wasn't very pleasing to me.
"Harper, just Harper. Sorry, no cool super hero name." I shrugged and look to my sister who was feeling very amused. "Now please kindly step away from my sister and I." I said softer but more dangerous.
"Ya are the new teacher ain't ya, cheri?" he asked and I stop turning to him.
"So if I am?" I glared at him but Hank stepped between us along did Rogue.
"Hey Remy lets go get a seat." Rogue said before Hank could say anything. By his feelings, Hank is feeling very protective.
We all ate not many of us talking to each other. Remy sat not far from me but I made sure he was a distance from Amber as much as I could. Alina sat on other side of me. Ray sat across from me beside Kitty who's talking to Rogue. Rogue is sitting between Remy and Logan talking to Bobby who is sitting across from her. Other then that nothing new. New faces at our table that's it.
After dinner Ray volunteer to help Bobby with cleaning up though Jean insist that Alina should. "What is like with Jean?" Kitty ask me softly.
"I have no idea. I feel a lot of protectiveness today it seems like." I told her watching everything play out.
After Ray and Bobby finished cleaning up we all went to our areas. Hank and I helped Amber back to the lab and got her settle down in her bed. Once there I told them good night and slipped out as he made sure that Amber were fine. I jumped up the stairs and got to my room quickly. As I open the door I felt another presence. "Ray?" I called but she didn't reply. "Alina?" I tried again. Nothing. "Who's here?" I asked slightly panic. The feelings were strong but not dangerous which calm me. Walking in I saw dark eyes and wild blond hair. He's tall and strong looking. It's Sabertooth. "What are you doing here?" I asked him softly walking over to him.
"Victor." he growl and I gave him a confuse looked.
"Victor?" I asked softly. His eyes changed and I walked closer to him. Something inside of me stir and I reach out softly touching his cheek. The fur ran through my fingers and I smiled up to him softly.
"My." he stop growling softly putting his nose to the base of my wrist. "Name." he growl out more. I smiled softly and pulled away. What am I doing? I fussed at myself mentally then stop.
"What are you doing here, Victor?" I asked softly and he nuzzle my hand and made me rub the side of his face again.
"Safe." he mumble rubbing his face to my hand. "Safe." He softly growl.
"Yes, I am." I can feel that this isn't the Victor that he wants me to see but something else that's inside of him. Maybe this is the fearsome Sabertooth.
A loud banging noise then an explosion, shaking, everything is shaking. I slightly freaked out running out and saw that Alina and Ray ran down the hall to where my kids rooms are. I followed them and heard Sabertooth, Victor, behind me. Once there I lead the kids out. One by one I count their heads. We are missing one. I over looked them then glance to Alina and Ray who notices it too. "Tina!" I scream for the light twin. Dina was holding on to Ray's leg.
"Miss Harper!" I heard Tina scream. I ran to her and saw her. She had a bookshelf on her. I start to push it off but it's to heavy to. Then it lift and I saw Sabertooth helping it picked up easily.
"Come on, Tina." I said grabbing her and pull her to me. Wrapping my arms around her dark skin body I help her get up but I can tell her pain. She has maybe a broken leg. I walked forward and pick her up as best as I can. I then felt the floors shake again. Someone was running our way and they were heavy. I heard a loud sound and we ran forward. Pete, he's metal and caught the big glob of skin that was heading our direction. Victor growl and push me to the children. Ray took Tina from me and Alina comfort the kids as the glob of skin threw Pete. He went flying through a wall. Sabertooth went at him and I was panicking. We were forced to a dead end I don't know the mansion that well yet. The ones that do are to far away to help us.
