Alright everyone, Jean's back! And you guys thought I killed her :) but I told you it was for good reason. So know we go back to Bella. the flashback bella has is the kitchen scene from X2 United where Striker's men started attacking and took out those two little kids. That was downright sad and wrong if you ask me... so with further notice, on with the show!!!
Chapter 4 Suspicions and Surprises
B POV
I opened my eyes to see Edward and Natalia staring intently at me.
"What" I asked. They looked at each other then smiled in relief. I stared at them confused but they remained silent. "Okay, you guys are freaking me out"
"Sorry. WE just wanted to make sure your okay" she told me. I tried to remember what happened earlier, when I finally recalled the dispute I had earlier with the others. I frowned and the they looked at each other again.
"Okay guys, seriously. I'm fine. Still a little upset, but none the less fine" I sighed
"If you say so" she said
"I do" I answered " what about you. You've been pretty quiet". He didn't answer me and looked as if he was straining to hear something. "Edward, are you alright"
He held up one hand to silence me and I stared at him. Natalia looked at me and I looked back at her confused. We turned towards him and I couldn't place his behavior. It was certainly different than the last time I saw him, but that was only two months ago. Nothing could happen in two months, could it? I saw him get up off the bed and moved to the door. I got up off to follow him, till he popped his head back in and motioned me to sit back down. I stared at him confused, but did as he asked. I sat down next to Natalia and crossed my arms over my chest annoyed. He smirked at me and smiled before turning towards the door. He looked to us and mouthed the words 'stay here' and twisted the door knob. He looked back at us and stared straight dead in y eyes. Then he mouthed 'don't move till I come for you' and then slipped out the room.
I growled in frustration and Natalia looked at me confused, but I didn't even acknowledge her. I was too busy remembering a flood of memories.
Flashback starts
I walked into the kitchen scared, looking for Logan. That night I couldn't sleep, so I went to Jean and Scott's room. Only to find it empty. Then I went to Storm's room only to find that one empty. So, I went to the Professor's room and that was empty to. So, I went to Logan's and that was empty as well. So I gave up and walked to the Kitchen. As soon as I got there I smiled. Bobby was here with Logan. They looked at me and smiled.
"Shouldn't you be sleep" Logan asked
"I can't sleep" I said
"You, me, and Logan both" Bobby said
"Well , it is kinda stormy"
"You afraid of the storm" Bobby teased
"No. You afraid of my foot connecting with your ball sac" I asked
"Alright alright. Enough you two" Logan said laughing. We joined with him when he suddenly stopped. We looked at each other and then at him. "Wait here" Then he ran out the kitchen. I walked over to Bobby and he looked at me.
"What do you think is going on" I whispered. He shrugged and looked back at the door. That's when lights flooded through the window. We moved towards it and crouched down. We looked outside and was shocked to find helicopters outside. We backed away from the window quietly, when I heard someone's thoughts. I turned around quickly to see Logan grab a man with a gun and put him in a headlock. Before anyone could do something, we heard Screech scream. We covered our ears in pain and ducked as the man's gun went out of control shooting everywhere .I put up a force field to shield bobby and myself. I didn't know how long I could hold this up, when all of a sudden the screaming and shooting stopped. We didn't move until Logan came around the corner and motioned for us to get up. We sprawled up from the floor and followed behind him. We followed him to the elevator and he turned towards us.
"Go make sure the others are okay. Then go take the tunnel that leads to the garage. Don't move till I come back for you" he said then left.
Flashback ends
Of course Bobby and I didn't listen and went back for him after we made sure the others were safe. So I sure as hell wasn't gonna listen now. I picked up Natalia and slung her on my back. The wonderful thing about me being a mutant, I got a thief and a man with anger management issues for mentors.
I walked over to the far right corner of my room and looked up at the air vent. Thankfully it wasn't on meaning I could crawl through it with no problem. I jumped up and caught the cap of it with one hand and used my other hand to make sure I had a force field under my feet to steady me. I pushed it open and crawled through and closed it on my way back in. Natalia looked at me curiously and I smiled. She lifted one eyebrow curiously and shrugged. After I made sure the top was back on securely I flew through the air vent in the direction Edward was heading. I knew I would beat him there because I was faster when I flew and he was attempting to be stealthy which usually took a while.
I stopped over the air vent that was down the hall, past Edward and near the stairs. I opened the top again and slid threw. I landed lightly on my feet and placed the top back on the air vent securely.
I stepped out of view and slid towards the wall. I pulled Natalia off my back and motioned for her to whisper.
"despite how fun that was, what are we doing" she whispered
"Edward is up to something and isn't telling me" I told her quietly
"Is that why he was acting weird" she asked and I nodded. "There's something else too"
"I think he's training to be an X-Man and not telling me"
"Can he do that" she asked and I nodded "But he has to tell you. I mean you did say that before you become an X-Man you have to pass being a member of the X-Calibre team right" I stopped and smiled. She was right. He did have to pass being on my team. Also meaning that he would have to take my classes to graduate. She might not have noticed, but this girl has just given me an evil scheme. I looked down at her and smiled.
"You are absolutely correct" I said
"You're up to something aren't you" she asked
"Yup. But it's nothing you have to worry about" I assured her and started walking. I scanned the area and then paused.
"What" she asked but I didn't answer her. I was too busy staring at the red headed woman I hadn't seen in two months. The woman who I had never thought I'd see again. The woman who had passed on the one thing that threatened to destroy her life every wakening minute and now mine.
My mother.
