Chapter 13
Lena walked out from the washroom refreshed and ready to go. She had washed the tears away with a hot shower. Lena went over to the phone and checked for ay messages but the computerized voice told her that Remy had not thought about her. Pulling herself together Lena walked out of the door and out of the hotel.
Down by City Hall a large mass of people stood protesting, some held large signs, other just screamed and yelled. They were mutants fighting the law that was trying to be legalized. This law suggested that all mutants should be marked then live by special rules and segregated from the human race.
Lena pushed her way through she walked by a cop and stole his handcuffs without anyone noticing. She fought her way to the front where Time Warp stood holding a large sign. She screamed at the senator and the mayor. Without hesitation Lena snapped one of the cuffs around her wrist then snapped the other on Time Warp's wrist. The woman turned around to glare at Lena
"What the hell are you doing?!" Lena glared back and tugged her close
"Listen here. You are going to take me back and I will tell you how to prevent your family from being destroyed. I don't give a damn what you do because I am very powerful and very pissed off. I just got my heart broken so don't push me. Finish your little screaming match then you and I are going back to your apartment." Time Warp looked nervous as she saw the seriousness in Lena's eyes. She nodded then turned back to the two politicians.
Lena spent her time at the protest looking for any sign of Gambit. She had hoped that he would at least come see her, maybe say goodbye. Lena wiped the tear that had escaped and pulled Time Warp to the streets.
Without a word the women, accompanied by Pax went back to their previous meeting place. When they were in Time Warp's apartment she turned to Lena
"Can you take these off now?" she asked holding their wrists up. Silently Lena took out the key and undid the cuffs.
"Thanks" Time Warp rubbed her wrist and looked at Lena
"Are you going to talk?" Lena looked at her dangerously angry
"Listen closely. If you screw me over by sending me to the wrong time I will find you and I will kill you. Do you understand me?" Time Warp nodded scarred
Lena sat down on one of the couches and sighed. She closed her eyes
"You know your daughter right?" the other woman scoffed
"Of course I know my own child" Time Warp came to sit across from Lena. Lena sat up and opened her eyes to look at her
"She's going to die during child birth. Your granddaughter is going to join the brotherhood which is just stupid. She's going to die July 12th 2010. I want to go back to July 28th 2010. I was standing by the pond with a man when you came by. Do you understand?"
Time Warp held back the tears. She was devastated to hear that her family was going to suffer so much pain. Looking back at Lena who wore a cold expression on her face as she nodded.
"Are you agreeing to send me back to that day?" Lena still looked like she felt no more than a stone would.
"Yes. I hope you do well. Thank you for helping me. I'm locking my granddaughter in a tower until 2011" Lena humoured the woman's attempt to be funny and let a small smile out.
Time Warp stood up and pulled Lena to her feet. She put her hands up and closed her eyes.
Lena could feel the same weird feeling she did before. The ground felt like it was cracking and moving beneath her feet. The air was pushed out of her lungs then her body felt like it was released from a tight grip. Lena felt like she was falling and looked to see a body of water. She sucked in her breath as she plunged into the water. Pushing her self up to the surface she took a large gulp of air as she came up. Treading water she saw the elderly version of Time Warp standing at the shore. Swimming over Lena got closer and closer. She pulled herself from the water to sit on the grass.
"Wanna catch me up?" Lena asked as the water dripped from her body. The elderly woman smiled down at her
"Well my granddaughter is alive and well. She sends her love. The rest you have to check for yourself. I only came her to see if I sent you to the right time." Lena nodded, stood up and looked over at the mansion. It had looked the same as she left it. Lena looked back to see the woman had left.
"She had to drop me in the pond" Lena muttered as she walked towards the mansion in her soaked clothes.
Once she was close enough to see from the mansion. Storm came racing out and hugged her then pulled back
"What the hell happened to you? Logan comes in worried saying Time Warp got you and now you walk in here soaked." Lena smiled at her
"The bitch dropped me in the pond. The rest is a long story and I desperately need a change of clothes cause wet jeans and panties not so comfortable" Storm nodded and dragged her in.
When they got into the mansion Lena looked over to see Logan, she punched him in the arm. Logan stopped and looked at her
"What was that for?" Lena smirked
"Trust me you deserved it. Trying to kill me. I'm thinking of getting you declawed maybe neutered too" She smiled widely at him
"Not such a bad idea." a familiar voice said from behind her.
Lena closed her eyes and let a the tears fall. she turned around to see Scott standing there smirking at Logan. Scott had looked the same as the day she last saw him. He had a bit of scruff and his hair was medium length. Lena ran to him at full speed and locked him in a tight hug. She cried into his shoulder. Scott wrapped his arms around her tightly and whispered in her ear.
"We need to talk" he said after she had calmed down. Lena nodded as she wiped the remaining tears away.
