Another few days would pass before Anya knew. This made Apocalypse angry, but he knew that he couldn't rush her; otherwise he would get the wrong person. Another thing was that he changed her appearance. She now had black scaly wings protruding from her back. He thought that it would help her get her target quicker.

Back in Bayville, Wanda was told to keep a closer eye on her brother by their father. He told them that Anya mentioned something about him being a target. That day, they were on the top of a very old building. The reason that they were on top of the building was because they were told to meet their father there for more instructions. Unfortunately, it was Apocalypse that told them to go there. Anya had told him that one of them was the next target.

"Wanda, what are we doing here?" asked Pietro.

"I told you that dad told us to come up here. He said that he had to tell us something."

"Well he better get here soon. I don't like the look of that gargoyle in the corner."

She looked at it. It did seem to be different then the others, like it shouldn't be there. As she got closer to it, she noticed that it looked almost human. It was only when she turned around that it was too late. The gargoyle stood up, flapped its wings and turned around. When they saw that it was Anya, they had no time to attack. She had grabbed Pietro in the blink of an eye. But when she was about to fly off, she was hit by something.

Warren, who was still worried about her, was the one to attack her. He went searching for her because she never came home. He didn't like what he was seeing. He knew that she would never attack her family. She may never like to talk about them, but she did care about them, otherwise when they would call she wouldn't respond. She would never do anything for the holidays for them, or their birthdays.

"Anya, STOP!" he yelled at her.

"You think you can stop me?" she asked him. "My master needs this boy to complete his work."

"This isn't you." He said. "I know it isn't you."

Suddenly, if just for a moment, she snapped out of it.

"Warren, please help me." She said before reverting back to the one controlled by Apocalypse.

"You will never get him back." She said before speeding off.

After that he knew that he had to talk to the professor. He now knew what was going on, and he wanted answers. He also wasn't going to just let them tell him that there was nothing that he could do. She asked him for help, there had to be something that he could do.

Upon arrival at the x-mansion, he immediately went to the professor. He told him what he had seen, and what Anya had said. After getting all the information, Beast came to the conclusion of what was happening.

"I know what is happening," said Beast.

"What?" asked Warren.

"Apocalypse is making a machine that will, in some way, make him invincible."

"What would this have to do with Anya, though?" asked Warren.

"She is the only one that knows who is needed to power the machine," said Magneto.

"He's right," said Beast. "Anya's powers let her see who and what is needed, without trying to scan every one within a hundred mile radius."

"But it doesn't make sense; I mean she went after her own brother, and I know that she would never do that." Said Warren.

"She would if she is being controlled." Said the professor. "I believe that Apocalypse has a strong hold on her, and maybe her powers also."

With that, Warren started to walk out.

"Warren, where are you going?" asked Beast.

"I'm going to go find her." He said.

"How do you think you are going to do that?" asked Magneto. "If Apocalypse has control of her powers, he could have her kill you."

"That is a chance that I am willing to take. She trusts me, so if there is any way of getting her back, then I might just have to try."

"You don't even know what she can do." Said Magneto.

"Neither do you. You don't even know why she doesn't trust you, but I do. I know more about her then you or any one else does."

With that he took off. He didn't want to listen to them tell him, that there was nothing he could do. He once told her that he would die for her. She told him that he shouldn't say anything like that, but he wouldn't listen to her. He loved her, and there was nothing that was going to stop him from saving her.

"Why did he say that?" asked Magneto.

"I think I should tell you…" said the professor.

"Tell me what?" asked Magneto.

"Anya lives in town with him. They have been dating for quite some time."

"What!" Exclaimed Magneto. "She never…"

"That's the point." said Beast. "She never tells you anything, because she knows how you are going to react."

"That's not the point. She should have said something."

"Would saying something have made a difference?" asked the professor.

"I don't know. I mean, I could have helped her with something, anything, and now I find out that she turned to someone that…"

"Someone that isn't like her at all." said Beast. "Yes she did turn to someone like that, but you have to understand that you never realized what her powers could do. No one really knows what her powers can do. She doesn't know, and I doubt that she ever will; but if there was a chance that she would trust him, then there is a chance that she will open up to someone and they would help her when she needed it."

"She knows that…"

"She knows what, Eric? You think that she knows that she can come to you. You never told her why you left, and she figured it out on her own. After you put Wanda in the institution, you left her and Pietro alone with out telling them where you were going or why."

He noticed that, he noticed that Anya was never responsive to him. When he was home, she would stay in her room most of the time, except to go to school. But what he really noticed was that her powers seemed to change every time he tried to help her control them. He didn't think much about it at first, but when she started to get really angry at something, a different one would surface. It was hard to watch it all, but he knew that she was never going to learn control with as little that she was doing. She didn't want to train at all, and he knew that she should.


Within the mind of Anya, she was fighting her own battle. She wanted to get out, and to return to her life. Everything was out of her control. She knew when it started. She remembered that once she walked out of the room, she felt the power change. She felt all of her powers, somethin that she hadn't felt in a long time, not since they were bound. That's when she knew something was wrong. Now she was trying to gain control of her body and get back to the one person that was a true constant in her life.

She could feel his sorrow. She could feel his pain because she wasn't with him. He wanted her in his arms, and the last time he saw her he knew something was wrong.

He didn't know, he didn't know that the first time that they had sex, she had made a conection between them, and that she chose him above all others. But then again, she wouldn't have chosen another. She wasn't that sociable. Even though she did work at a coffee house when they first met. After he talked to her, he got her to leave the shop and go to work with him. When she did that, was when he became attracted to her. He saw what she could do, and how she was able to help the people who got lost. He saw the light in her, something that she didn't see herself. But there was something else; something else that was in her that he could see, and that was her compassion for others. She seemed to generally care for others that were in her care, and from what he saw he cared about him. When he was contemplating ending his life as a mutant, and living the remainder of his days as a human. She told him, she convinced him to keep his wings, and use them to help others. That was the whole reason for his starting to save people. It was all because of her; and he was greatfull for all that she taught him and gave him. From those gifts that she gave, Warren loved her. He would always love her, and know he knew that he would be the only one that could possibly save her from the one person who could hurt her the most...herself.


There you go I finally updated, and the only reason that I haven't been was because I have had severe writers block.
