Chapter 9

Location: Rhodope Mountains, Greece - 5:49 PM

"You're a chess eater", the white haired man with a young face smirked at the woman full of tattoos on her skin sitting across the chess table. She snickered, "Third round?" "No, thanks", he smiled in amusement, standing on his feet and running off fast like a lightning. She shook her head and tittered, compiling the metal chess pieces on the table in front of her. A while later, an old man came over and sat on the empty chair opposite to her. He rested his back against the chair, "You won again, Callisto" "Yeah, I did", she nodded once. "Honestly, your son isn't a good player, Erik", added her, hiding her giggle. Magneto had a small smile, "He may be a bad player but he never gives up", he replied her. Callisto placed the last chess piece in the corner of the chess table with a slight grin in her face, "That's really true". Magneto had a slow nod. It took a few seconds for him to start a new conversation with her, "Will you leave the Brotherhood?". "Absolutely, not. Why did you ask?", Callisto frowned. "Since I've lost my power", he answered. Callisto snorted, "I won't. Brotherhood will never fall", she showed her vicious grin while standing up. "Trust me", she added her words before she walked away.

He let out a frustrated sigh. He brought his own back forward to lean his elbows against his knees. He wished the bullets weren't permanent-cures. He came to Warren Worthington Jr.'s building to stop the sells. He knew it was harsh to destroy the office but he didn't care... He clamped his hands together. He gazed down at the chess pieces underneath his chin. He stretched an arm out towards a Queen chess piece and pointed his index finger at it. He had a deep frown with his eyes kept straining at it.

The chess piece fell over without his touch.

She stood on her toes to fetch a tin of chocolate powder from the cabinet above her. She poured a smoking water from a flask into the mug that she held in her hand. She made herself a hot chocolate. She usually did that before sleeping. It was her routine. She stirred the drink, changing the color darker into pure chocolate.

"I always wonder how could your hair be white as Storm's", a voice was heard from behind. She spun around to look at the owner of the voice. Her frightened eyes were softened as she saw him."You scared me, Bobby", she sighed in relief. He cackled, "Really?" She rolled her eyes in a playful way, "Yeah". He was leaning against the dining table positioned in the middle of the kitchen. He had a jeering grin, "Sorry, my lady", he said in a taunting tone. She let out a soft giggle before sipping on her drink. "You didn't answer me yet", he reminded her. She raised her eyebrows, pointing at her own hair, "Oh, my weird hair? It came from my power. Healing power is like clean and always flawless or whatsoever you want to call it. Humans thought I was an alien just because I'm so white. My hair, my skin and grey eyes that looked ghastly", she started to think her mutation wasn't impressive.

He moved his arms backwards and rested his palms on the table behind his waist, "You are an alien, Lukina" "See?", she tilted her head with an annoyed face expression. "You are foreign and I like that", he gave her a charming smile. His enticing smile made her lips drew into a simper. It melted her heart easily. "Thanks", she rubbed her palms together as her cheeks turned scarlet. "I would like to know your codename", she finished her drink. "Iceman", he replied her. "Yours?", he inquired. "I think I'm codenaming myself... Ivory", she shrugged. She wasn't sure. "Ivory? Sweet", he folded his arms while smirking. "Is it?", she asked him. "Yeah, it is", he nodded once, offering her a convincing grin.

Kitty Pryde entered the kitchen, giving the two a beaming smile. They returned the smile and unexpectedly dispersed right away. Kitty made her way towards the kitchen counter and took a packet of biscuits. She felt sad even more when they seemed to get rid of her. She took a bite of the biscuit as the packet was torn by her. She knew the conversation between Bobby and Lukina. She heard it all clearly. To her, the eavesdropping wasn't worthless.

She knew Bobby will never had feelings for her.
