I ran back at the spot where I caught my father using his powers. "Where are you Magneto? SHOW YOURSELF!" I got hit by a metal and landed head first on the ground. "Good to see you again Son." Magneto stood in front of me and gave out a fake smile. "What do you want?" I spat. "Just came to say hello to my only son. Is that wrong?" he asked innocently. "YOU JUST HIT ME WITH THAT METAL AND RUINED MY MOMENT TO KISS A GIRL I REALLY LIKE. YOU DON'T CALL THAT WRONG!" I shouted.
"Get over it Pietro, she's just another mutant girl you would forget eventually." His words made me go in shock. "She's a mutant!" I said in disbelief. "Why so surprised? Wasn't it obvious?" he asked. "Just leave me alone Magneto!" I stood up and started walking back to the brotherhood. "Not so fast son." He warned. "You don't know how fast I can go and you are not my father." I shot back. I suddenly heard something breaking. I turned around and saw him destroying the metal roof of Alice's house. "ALRIGHT STOP!" I begged, "What do you want?" I finally gave in.
He gave out a grin and saw that he finally had my attention. "I have an important job for you Pietro." He began, I knew this was going to be bad, but he then continued on "I want you to join the X-Men." He said. "Why do I have to join those losers?" I snapped. "The X-Men are planning to take your sister Wanda in. I will not allow that to happen." He replied. "Are you nuts? You want me to save Wanda! She'll snap and have my head off!" I protested. "SILENCE" Magneto commanded, "Charles has removed all her memories, so she does not remember you or me. So make her remember."
"What makes you think I'll do it?" I asked in a pissed tone. "Because here's the fun part. If you don't do it, I'll make sure you never see your girlfriend again." He replied and was about to fly off. "There's nothing you can do to keep me away from her." I argued. I saw all the lights in the street explode one by one. "Don't make this complicated Pietro. You have a job. Now do it. Don't be stupid enough to choose that girl over your own father." That's when he took off. I couldn't believe it. After all these years my father just comes by to see me all because he wants to use me? Great father huh? I headed back at Alice's place to see if she's alright. When I got there by the window, she was sitting up in bed looking at my direction.
She got up and opened the window to let me in. I was about to explain until I felt something warm come over me. I had to blink 5 times to notice that she was hugging me. "Thank God you're back." She said in a worried tone. I laughed and hugged her back. That was the first time I felt like I wanted something to last forever. "Look, there are some things you need to know about me. Like what just happened just now."
She nodded as if she understood, "I know you're a mutant, and I am one myself." I sighed and ran my hands through her hair.
