So I'm back! Oh yeah! So I present to you the next chapter and instead of two chapters I made this one reallllllly long. The OC's belong to their respective owners and I don't own X-Men: Evolution.
Special thanks to my beta, Velocity12.
Chapter Six
Simon's Pov
It wasn't hard to figure out how the drone worked. The controls were fairly simple and I thanked God when I saw that it had a built in navigation system. That would definitely make getting to a hospital easier; now we just had to figure out how to actually get in one.
"How much longer before we get to the hospital?" Leo asked, "Jason's about ready to pass out."
"I don't know exactly how fast this thing can go but if we average of at least 120 mile per hour we should be there in ten minutes."
"Just saying ten minutes would have sufficed," He said and walked away, probably to check out the drone.
I was right. It took exactly ten minutes to get to the hospital. People stared as we all got out of the drone. I guess I couldn't really blame them, the story that they were trying to put with our appearances probably wasn't the best. I was helping Jason stay up right while Leo was carrying Selena and Bridget was trailing behind. I could only imagine what they were saying when they whipped out their phones.
As we got closer to the doors of the hospital we started to gain the attention of the nearby soldiers but they didn't seem to be that interested. I once again thanked God, something I seemed to be doing a lot of since Nathan was taken.
"We need help over here!" Leo yelled I slightly jumped, not expecting the outburst. Two nurses ran over and instructed Leo to put Selena onto the gurney and for me to help Jason into a wheel chair.
"How did this happen?" One of the nurses asked.
"We were in a fight," I answered. Both nurses stopped what they were doing and looked us all over; damn it. I could tell that they knew we were mutants.
"I'm sorry we can't help you." Leo's face went red before he started yelling.
"ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? THEY'RE DYING AND YOU'RE TELLING ME YOU CAN'T TO ANYTHING BECAUSE WERE MUTAN-." The yelling stopped when the barrel of a gun was pressed firmly against his head. I felt the cool metal press against my head I turned my head slightly to see Bridget in the same situation. Shit.
"Walk," The soldier demanded and shoved me forward. I knew we wouldn't be able to fight our way out of this one. Even if we did take down the soldiers in here more would be called and we wouldn't all get out alive with Jason and Selena unconscious.
Bridget's Pov
This sucked. It'd been with them for all of a day and I was already being held at gun point. At least when I was with Angelica she always knew how to lay low when she wanted to. I mean seriously did they really think that the doctors would accept them with open arms? On top of that we were in a hospital. I hated hospitals.
"Nurse we need to be escorted to the roof so we can airlift the prisoners," I soldier said. Escort? Really? They were freaking soldiers for crying out loud and they needed an escort to the roof. Fucking unbelievable. A man in a blue lab coat looked up from his clip board before setting it down and walking towards us.
"I'll escort them," He said. The soldier in front of Leo nodded before following the doctor to the door that leads to the stair well. I watched the three soldiers who were holding us at gunpoint and noticed that they were paying a lot more attention to Leo and Simon. That could work for me.
"I have to go to the bathroom," I said, hoping that my plan would work.
"Too bad," The guy in front of me said.
"She's just a kid; I don't think that they'll pull anything. Two of their friends are injured," The doctor guy defended.
"Fine," The soldier said in a clipped tone and shoved me roughly through the nearest door. He kept pushing me down the halls, in the direction that the signs were pointing. When we finally reached the bathroom the guy tried to go in with me.
"Um no I can handle this on my own," I said and I swear I saw the guy slightly blush but nonetheless let me go alone. As soon as the door was locked I pulled out my phone, a small disposable flip phone that Angelica gave me when I first met her. Holding down number '2' on the keypad until the phone started ringing.
"Bridget?" Angelica answered on the second ring.
"We need your help," I said.
"What? How the hell are you already in trouble? You've only been there for a day. What the hell happened?"
"Not really important right now. Do you still have the number of the teleporter?"
"Of course," Angelica scoffed, "Where do we need to be?"
"The roof of a hospital roughly 60 miles from the gas station where we met Selena and Jason," I explained.
"We'll be there in five minutes," She promised.
"Thanks." There was a loud pounding on the door followed by yelling.
"What's taking so long?"
"What was that?" Angelica asked.
"Nothing got to go," I said and hung up the phone. Shoving it back into my pocket I waited another minute.
"I'm going to break down this door!" The commando guy yelled and I opened the door as soon as the pounding started again.
"Dude chill out," I said and he glared at me for grabbing my arm a lot harder than before and leading me up the stairs.
Leo's Pov
I swear these stairs were never-ending. They never stopped and it didn't help that every few feet the asshole behind me pressed the gun harder into my head. Well I guess it's time to make my own entertainment.
"Simon how much do you think these lowlifes get paid?" Simon looked at me like I was crazy but I gave a look that pretty much said 'go with it.'
"Minimum wage probably," Simon answered.
"Stop talking," The soldier behind me demanded.
"What if I don't want to?" I taunted and was met with the side of his gun smashing into my right cheek. I wanted to rip this guy's head off but being somewhat civil I whipped around too fast for him to register and spit a mixture of blood and spit into his face. He wiped it from his face and raise the gun to hit me again but stopped when the doctor guy started talking.
"I don't think your superior would like it if you brought them three unconscious mutants and one possibly suffering from brain damage." The soldier huffed and instead jabbed me hard in the shoulder, turning me around.
"Man are you okay," Simon whispered.
"Fine, but he's going to regret doing that," I said and spit more blood onto the floor.
"I said stop talking." This time it was the guy behind Simon who said something.
"Why? According to the doctor you can do anything to us." Neither soldier said anything and I took it as a victory. The rest of the walk of the stairs was pretty much silent. I could tell both of the guys behind me where sending me death glares but I had a large grin practically plastered onto my face; which probably looked scary considering I had a split lip.
When we reached the top of the stairs the doctor held the door open and Simon and I were roughly pushed through and seated against a wall. Looking around the roof I counted a least twenty other soldiers waiting by a high-tech looking helicopter. Well there goes our chance of escape.
"You won't shoot me if I check over them?" The doctor asked the soldiers and motioned over to Jason and Selena. The soldier shook his head and the doctor guy walked over.
"What's your deal?" Simon asked as the doctor checked over Jason.
"I don't understand what you're asking."
"First you defend Bridget, then you keep them from beating Leo half to death, and now you want to make sure and Selena and Jason are okay," Simon elaborated.
"Let's just say I don't think all mutants are bad; plus your just kids. You don't deserve this." I was as shocked as Simon; every mutant had pretty much learned not to trust humans. Well there were the people where I used to live but I think that they were just protecting me because they had all known my father and adored my sister. I watched as the doctor checked over Selena, shining a bright light into each of her eyes and checking things like her pulse and the nasty gash on her head.
"What took you so long?" One of the soldiers asked someone.
"The girl took forever," He explained and I looked up to see Bridget being led and shoved down to sit next to me. After the doctor walked away I turned to Simon.
"What chance do you think we have of getting out of here alive?" I joked. Before Simon could answer Bridget cut in.
"Don't do anything stupid; I called for back-up and they should be here any moment." Back-up? When did she have time to do that?
"When did you manage time to do that?" Simon asked.
"I didn't actually have to go to the bathroom," She said slowly, like she was explaining it to a four year old. We all turned our attention to the sound of someone saying something through a walkie talkie and the soldiers started to walk towards. "Hurry up Angelica," Bridget whispered and for the first time today we had some luck, because with a puff of smoke and a loud bang a girl with long black hair stood with three other guys, ready to fight.
Angelica's Pov
"Thanks for getting here so fast Aaron," I said and looked him up and down. He pretty much looked the same; short black, almost blue, spiky hair on his head and fuzzy blue hair covering the rest of his body.
"No problem. You said Bridget is in trouble. What happened?" He asked.
"I wish I could answer that one but she didn't say much in her phone call," I explained, "I'm going to go get Michael and Faing." I walked out of the room and into a small room where Michael and Faing sat on the couch playing Black Ops.
"Come on we have to go save Bridget's ass," I said.
"Wait I'm kicking Faing's ass in this match we can't leave yet," Michael said, as if I cared about their stupid video game.
"I prefer plants over video game anyway," Faing defended, "So it's not like it counts." I narrowed my eyes and waved my hand, sending both their controllers into the wall. Not bothering to watch them get of their asses I walked out of the room, knowing they were following.
"No, no, no I refuse to teleport," Michael said and I grabbed Aaron's hand and the same time I opened up a mind link.
'Roof of a hospital, 68 miles north-west of here.'
He nodded before grabbing Faing's hand while wrapping his tail around Michael we teleported away. When my feet hit the ground I quickly took in the situation. At least twenty soldiers were lined up and another three were walking towards Selena, Bridget, Jason, and two other guys. Michael and Faing immediately started taking out the ones behind us and I came up with a quick plan to easily get the other three.
'Drop me off ten feet above the middle one.'
I felt Aaron's tail snake itself around my waist and a second later I was falling towards the unsuspecting soldier. Wrapping my legs around his neck I held on and went directly into a roll and pushing the other one using my telekinesis as I came up, sending him flying off the roof. I placed my hand onto the first soldier's cheek successfully turning him into ash before picking myself up in one swift movement and turning to take down the last soldier only to be met with the barrel of his gun pressed against my forehead.
"Move and she dies," He warned. I narrowed my eyes again before opening another mind link.
'You're going to set the gun down a-.'
I was forced out of the link when a man in a blue lab coat grabbed a gun off the ground and hit the soldier on the back of the head, knocking him out.
"I can help your friends," He said to the guy holding Selena, "My son is a mutant like you."
"How do we know we can trust you," He asked.
"I did just save you friend."
"Leo I'm not getting any ulterior motives off the guy," The other one said and I had to agree with the blond dude, this guy seemed clean.
"Fine." Both guys along with Bridget followed the doctor through a door. I looked at Michael and Fang who nodded yes at my unasked questioned and we followed them.
Third Person, Mutant Experimentation Headquarters
"Dr. Halliwell Seth has returned from the mission," A man with a military haircut and a cadet uniform said.
"Send him in." Seth walked through the door, his shirt had a large burn hole in it but other than that he was unharmed.
"Tyler is dead and Greg is in the infirmary," Seth stated, "You didn't warn me that she was traveling with mutants."
"So you failed," Dr. Halliwell clarified.
"I only failed because you didn't properly brief me," Seth tried to say without yelling, "With all due respect but what's so special about this girl anyway? I understand that she is your first creation but you've proved that you can just make stronger and more… cooperative mutants without her."
"Because, while you are stronger she is open minded. You are specifically created to follow my every order and nothing else and your life span is limited. Also she is my daughter and I will not let her run away from me," Dr. Halliwell explained, "Anymore pointless questions?"
"No but if you could ask someone to get information on the mutants she is traveling I can be better prepared next time."
"I'll get someone on it. You're dismissed." Seth nodded before walking out for the room. Dr. Halliwell spun his chair around and pulled up the newest picture of Selena. "Soon," He whispered to himself.
So what did you all think? I liked it :D Review and tell me!
