Title: Who Knew?

Summary: Things nobody knew about the X-Men.
Disclaimer: I don't own X-Men: Evolution.
My name is Ray Crisp and I'm a pathological liar. I lie about everything. My birthday, my past, even my name- all lies. It's gotten so bad that sometimes, even I believe what I'm saying. I don't think I'll stop anytime soon.
I have a sister. Did you know that? Her name was Raelena and she was a dancer. She has long blonde hair, except her bangs are orange, like mine. We're twins. Somebody here at Xavier's asked me once if I had any siblings. I said no. I said I was an only child. Then they asked me about my past. I said I'd been in foster care since I was two, when my parents died in a car accident. I said I'd been jumping around between foster families and orphanages since then. Those were lies. They sound believable, right? People die in car crashes a lot, leaving behind little children. Sometimes I wish that was the truth. In reality, I lived with my mother and step-father until I was twelve. I can't remember a time when my step-father, Eli wasn't drunk. He'd beat me if I didn't do what he asked and, sometimes, just for fun. My mother didn't care. She wasn't even around most of the time. Rae got beat occasionally, too, but I took the brunt (is that the right word?) of it. I had to protect her.
When we finally ran away, it was terrifying. That was how I came to become one of the morlocks. She wanted to go to this fancy dance school with the money she had in her savings account. I said she should save it. We fought for a bit and finally decided to go our separate ways. I joined the morlocks and she went to the school of her dreams.
Bobby once asked if I was ever with the morlocks. I lied to him. ¾ of everything that comes out of my mouth is a lie. Most of the time, I can't help it. It's, like, a natural reflex.
Everything you just read was a lie.
End
How was that? I like it, even though it's kinda short. I think I'm gonna start updating every other day, instead of every day. School's been really busy lately, with Science Olympiad, and Academic Bowl, and Debate Club, and Reading Club, and homework, and bunches of other stuffs. My writing spree didn't go as planned. I spent most of the night on my math homework (which my teacher assigned when we had 30 seconds left of class!) and teaching my 9 year old sister my level math. I taught her multiplying and dividing monomials, exponents, and the Pythagorean Theorem. Off topic. Anyway, please review! Pppllleeeaaassseee!
