A/N: Was the last chapter bad? No reviews…:( I knew it was short, but I didn't think it was that bad. If you could answer my previous question, what are the traits of a Mary Sue, please do! Enjoy!

I do not own X-Men
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in our hour of conflict; be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the Devil. May God restrain Him, we humbly pray, and do Thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host, by the power of God, cast Satan into Hell, and with him all the other evil spirits, who wander through the world, for the ruin of souls. Amen.
She could feel them. Hear their footsteps and drunken laughter as they followed her. In her hand, she held her rosary close to her body and whispered silent prayers of protection, for St. Michael to defend if they unleashed an attack. She attempted to remain calm and keep a safe distance from them. She dare not look back in fear for her own safety. Andrea never began to truly panic until the men began to call after her, making their wicked remarks. Silently, the young girl cursed at herself for parking a few blocks away from St. George hospital.
"Hey, honey, come back here with us! We can escort you to wherever you want!" This remark was followed by multiple hiccups and chuckles of dark laughter, resulting in Andrea quickening her pace.
A cold wind whipped at her jacket and Andrea shivered. The moon was full and glowing in the night sky sending out gleams of radiating light. The display of light lit up the barren street, accenting the buildings.
"Hey, babe! We can take you on a ride! A long, fun ride, it's so wonderful!"
At this comment, she ran. Andrea bolted away, long and hard as fast as she could. She could hear her heavy footsteps and quick gasps for breath. She ran as though she were in one of her high school's basketball games. As soon as Andrea attempted her escape, the gang of men ran after her. They were stronger built and could easily catch up to her. Andrea quickly learned this, as they were a few steps behind her. She glanced back and squealed in fear. This obviously excited the men, as they growled with excitement.
'My God, could my life be anymore cliché?' Andrea questioned herself.
As she soon discovered, the drive to stay alive made her run, regardless of any cramps or pains. The ambition soon took over the 19-year-old's train of thought. Obviously without thinking, she turned into a dark alley, the perfect place for a crime. There would be no escape once they had her cornered to the end of the alley, and then they would-
Andrea had no time to think of the endless sick possibilities that they could manage with her body. She didn't really understand why they would do this with her. Her body wasn't curvy; if anything it was pretty straight. Her chest size was pretty close to average; her breasts were just a little small for her age. On top of it all, she had a flat butt. She suddenly came to a complete halt. Nevertheless she came to face a wall.
'Okay, it can be more cliché, now that I'm in a dark alley with a gang of perverted men a few steps away.' She silently thought.
The men were all around the age of 30 with sinister grins plastered on their faces. It sent chills up and down her spine.
"Hey little lady, you have any experience?" One of them asked, his eyes looking suggestively up and down her body. Andrea opened her mouth to speak, but nothing came out except for a strangled sob.
"Oh God, please don't do this!"
Tears formed in the corners of her eyes.
'Don't let them see you cry.' Andrea couldn't decide if this was a moment of physical or emotional pain. Maybe it was both.
They all let out chuckles of excitement, as they came closer. Andrea felt her back hit the brick wall, and she let out a bloodcurdling scream, hoping someone would hear her. Her body convulsed in fear. She looked around for an escape, a fire escape to climb up, or a bystander to call for help, anything that could help her escape this cruel punishment.
As they circled into her private space, she clenched her eyes shut. Low chuckles of laughter erupted in their throats, as she held her arms up defensively. She felt one of the five grab her arms, trying to pry them away from her face, as the other's hands roamed her body. She thrashed around wildly.
"No sense in trying now, dolly. You're trapped," One of them purred into her right ear. She let out another strangled sob, as one of them caressed her bottom. She attempted to kick them until her legs were captured by one of their hands.
"Get off!" she shrieked, and they let go. Or did they?
As she clenched her eyes shut, a light airy feeling filled her stomach. The sensation resembled the one as though you were about to go down a beastly hill of a roller coaster. Even closer, it resembled butterflies in one's stomach.
"Whoa! What the- What the Hell?" One of the men rambled," What the bloody hell are you?"
"A mutant," One of them scoffed," How disgraceful."
Cautiously, Andrea opened her eyes.
"What?" She whimpered before screaming once again. She. Was. In. The. Air. In fact, she was floating above the buildings she was cornered against. The men from below stared up at her with hatred and disgust.
"Mutant! My God, she's a mutant!" They all cried, and to Andrea's surprise they ran away from the alley in fear. So she was there. Floating in the air. Alone. Once again. As she took in a deep breath, she found that to be a bad idea. She began to plummet to the ground, but she managed to catch the side of one of the buildings.
Silently she thanked God for giving her a spot on the basketball team. She may be a benchwarmer, but the weightlifting during practice sure paid off. Her left leg swung itself over the top of the red, brick business and pulled the rest of her weight with her. She clapped her hands together but winced as she soon realized that 2 cuts from the building were scarred on her hand. She applied pressure by pushing her palms together.
'At least my life isn't so cliché anymore.'
And right then, she knew for sure that God was on her side.
