Its Always You
Chapter 6
"What is going on?" Sean yelled as a banging continually surrounded them. The sound grew steadily louder.
"I don't know but we need to stay here" Alina said grimacing at the mangaled body of The Man in the Black Suit. A man fell on the roof shaking it. Raven screamed and ran to Hank who wrapped an arm around her shoulder.
"Stay Calm," Alina said her teeth clenched, "I cant help if I'm passed out"
"She's right, We need her" Hank said taking a deep breath. An officer made his way into the room.
"Get Down" he said as he tried to get the vanishing red man, that reminded you of the devil.
Alina grabbed her head in pain, forcing everyone to get down. Shots were fired in vain and two more agents ended up dead on the floor. Raven cried out again. The window was smashed by the body of an agent and everyone was scared screaming as they backed into the corner. The red man and the Spanish man with the tornados stepped into the room. The boys pushed the girls to the back. Raven wrapped an arm around Alina who was still holding on to her head.
"You want the mutants there right through that door, just let us normal people go" BANG and he was dead
"Bastard" Alina grumbled as she stood up straight getting a handle on her powers. The door smashed open to reveal a man in a funny looking helmet, if it had been any other time, Alina would have laughed
"Where's the telepath?" the man asked
"Not here"
"Too bad, at least I can take this silly thing off"
"So glad you agree" Alina quipped
"Feisty, I like them feisty"
"Riptide, focus" the man with the helmet snapped. " Good evening my name is Sebastian Shaw and I'm not here to hurt you"
"Have a funny way of showing it"
"My friend there is a revoloution coming" he said ignoring Alina "When man kind discovers who we are and what we can do, each of us will face a choice be enslaved or rise up to rule. Choose freely but know if you are not with us you are by definition against us. So you can stay and fight for the people who hate and fear you or you can join me and live like kings and queens"
Alina knew that Angel was tempted but she wouldn't stop her, this needed to be their choice, she had always believe that. She had made hers and now it was time for everyone else to make theres. Angel hesitated before taking a few small steps forward before steeling her frame and pushing forward with a determined walk.
"Angel"
"Are you crazy"
"We have to do something" Raven said
"Let her go" Alina said placing a hand of Raven's shoulder
"Wise one that one, you do well to listen to her" Shaw smiled
"But"
"If this is what Angel wants then we need to accept that I'm not going to force her stay, if anyone else wants to go then do it, and you leave" she snapped at Shaw
"of Course Miss…"
"Evans"
"Oh the manipulator"
"Go" she said with a threating voice
"Come on we don't belong here and that is nothing to be ashamed of" Angel said
Darwin turned around and looked at Alex, Alina didn't like the look in his eyes, but she was not going to stop him. If anyone knew what it was like to hate her powers it was Alina, she hate controlling people, she hated that she could make someone do anything she wanted, think anything she wanted.
Darwin and Alex pushed and shoved unitl Darwin made to move outside
"Stop I'm coming too"
"Good choice"
"So tell me about your mutation" Shaw asked as Alex ushered everyone else over by the other wall.
"I adapt to survie, so I guess I'm coming with you" he said standing nect to Angel
"I like that" shaw nodded
"ALEX" Darwin cried
"GET DOWN" Alex yelled as he let his mutaion attack. Darwin covered Angel, but something went terribly wrong. Shaw absorbed the energy from Alex's blast and Shaw grabbed Darwin forcing the energy into his body.
"Adapt to this" he said before vanishing. Everyone watched in horror as Darwin tried to make his body adapt to the energy, before it absorbed him too.
Alina stood there staring at the space in shock as the others numbly walked back into the rec room.
Everyone just collapsed in the wreckage to numb to really think of anything comforting to say to each other, they just fell asleep on the uncomfortable leather sofas.
The next day they were all sitting on a hard cement bench, waiting for Charles, Eric and Moira to come back. A black car pulls up and the three of them rush out to see the wreckage of the facility that was left in the place of the fortress it once was, after the brutal attack of last night
"Raven, Alina" Charles called, seeing his beautiful girls sitting on the bench.
"Charles" Raven cried as she ran to hug him, Alina stayed in her seat next to Hank.
"Alina?" he asked, she just turned her head, Charles took a deep in take of breath and turned to Alex and Sean.
"We have made arrangements for you to return home"
"But were not going home" Sean butted in. "and he's not going back to prision"
"He killed Darwin" Alex argued
"Even more reason for you to leave" Charles stressed. "This is over"
"Darwin is dead Charles, and we can't even bury him" Raven said sadly. Silence overtook the group.
"We can avenge him" Eric said, everyone looked up at the metal maniputaltor wondering what he was taking about now.
"Eric a word please" Charles said taking him over the way. Raven turned to Alina with a look of pure disappointment and hurt
"You don't even say hello to him, he was worried about you"
"Now is not the time Raven" she said solemly
"Sure, whatever Alina" Raven said crossing her arms and turning away from her friend.
Charles turned back to the group, "We'll have to train, all of us. Yes?" he asked everyone looked up even Alina turned her head towards him.
"Yeah" Alex agreed
"Well we cant stay here, even if they reopened the department its not safe. We've no where to go" Hank said sighing.
"Yes we do" Charles said. "We're leaving Alina would you drive the others to the house"
"Fine" she said taking the key's Charles had in hand and blinked at the other black car that appeared behind Moira's
The drive with Hank, Alex and Sean was silent. Alina had put the radio on when she got in the car and the men knew it was better to stay silent than be on the receiving end of her anger towards Charles. She pulled up a gravel driveway and killed the engine. The others had already gotten out of the car. The three men scrambled out of the car quickly to join the others.
"This is yours ?" Sean aksed staring up at the monster of a looming castle infornt of them.
"No, this ours" Charles smiled
"Honestly Charles I do not know how you survived living in such hardship" Eric commented sarcasm rolling off his tounge. Alina smirked standing back fron the group and leaning against Charles car. She seemed to have been doing that a lot lately, sitting there and listening to everyone else.
"Well it was a hardship sofented by me" Raven said pushing forward, Charles wrapped his arm around her and pressed a kiss to the side of her head.
"Come on time for the tour" Raven said leading the group towards the Xaiver manor. Charles lagged behind, as soon as Raven had lead everyone in he turned to Alina.
"Alina are you going to ignore me forever"
"Maybe" she said standing back up and making her way back to the car. The dark clouds rolled over the manision, and the thunder rumbled as Alina stalked off down the drive trying to avoid the inevitable conversation.
"Please stay, it will be dark in a few hours"
"I'll make it home before then"
"Alina please"
"What, Charles, you want me to sit around and babysit, to watch you yell at me like I am a child?"
"Alina"
"Answer me damn it" she yelled and the heavens opened on them soaking them instantly
"I don't treat you like a child"
"really"
"you don't tell me anything anymore"
"I don't want you hurt"
"Yet you still drag me through all this"
"Alina that is not fair"
"I LOVE YOU CHARLES, THAT IS WHY I CAME. SO WHAT ABOUT YOU"
"Alina…"
"I CANT DO THIS ANYMORE, IT'S OVER I'M GOING BACK TO MANHATTAN"
"ITS YOU ALI, ITS ALWAYS BEEN YOU, IT ALWAYS BEEN, ITS NOT OVER, ALINA, I LOVE YOU AND HELL IF I LET YOU GET BACK IN THAT CAR AND DRIVE ALWAY FROM ME AGAIN" he yelled back grabbing her wrist and pulling her into him in a fiery kiss. His hands tightening around her wasit, while her hands fling themselves around his neck running her fingers through his hair.
"Let's go in" Charles smiled stroking the hair that had stuck to her face in the rain
"Okay" she smiled as Charles slipped his hand into hers.
