Mutant Evolution
Chapter 9
Everyone stood there shocked, their eyes widened, their mouths making the shape of an 'o'. Lex looked down at his body, his uniform was split in half down to a couple of centimeters past his navel, exposing his bare skin. There was no sign of blood of any kind of pain.
He ripped off the top of the uniform to the belt, rolled it into a ball, and sped to the cockpit. Even though it was comfortable, he still thought it looked ridiculous. Getting over their shock, everyone saw a dark blue and gold blur speed out of the Danger Room. Seconds later, Lex appeared behind Logan and said, "What do you think happened?"
"Well, my best guess is that you broke the blade with your chest." Logan answered.
"And how exactly would I do that?"
"I believe that it may simply be another one of your powers, Lex." said Professor Xavier.
"Hmm. So this power would be invulnerability, right."
"Right."
"Before we count it as a power-" Lex sped away, and came back with a metal pipe. "-let's test it."
"Where'd you get that pipe?" asked Jamie.
"The Bayville dump."
"Oh."
"Like, what are you going to do with it?" asked Kitty.
Lex answered her question by raising the pipe in his right hand and smashing it into his left arm. Instead of shattering like the blade, the pipe bent. And like the blade, Lex didn't feel any pain.
"Lex, are you like, okay?" Kitty asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine. So that's three powers down, two to go. Oh yeah, and this ripped." Lex said showing Logan the ripped off top.
"That's okay, we'll get you a new one more suited to your abilities." said Professor Xavier calmly.
"Thanks Professor."
Everyone left the cockpit and headed their separate ways, except for Lex and Kitty, who left side by side headed to Kitty's room.
Forge pulled up the front gate of the Institute with what looked like his latest contraption. He pressed a button on the keypad, which activated the gruff voice of Logan.
"Who's there? What do you want?"
"Hey Logan, it's me, Forge. I told the Professor I'd be here."
"Okay." Logan said from the keypad. The gate opened up for Forge, who walked into the gate, and into the front doors.
Lex and Kitty were walked into her and Rogue's room, and sat down on Kitty's bed and began talking.
"So what happened after I left yesterday?" asked Lex.
"Nothing much, we just like, watched the news and went to bed. At least, that's what I did."
"Oh. While we were leaving the Danger Room, Bobby invited us to his cooling off session by the pool. He said something about the start to the Bayville heat wave. You know how the ice cube can't stand heat .So do you want to go, it starts at 12?"
"Okay, I guess I can like, dig up a bathing suit by then."
"Great, see you at 12. I have to go shower and get my trunks. I smell like wet dog because of that Danger Room thing." said Lex walking out the door, but was stopped short by Kitty's hand grabbing his arm.
"There's just like, one thing I need to ask you now." Kitty said, her hand still pulling his arm back to the spot on her bed.
"Okay, shoot." said Lex sitting on the bed.
"Is that a tattoo right there?" Kitty asked hovering a finger over his lower abdomen, where a small tattoo of a stylized 'S' in a diamond rested about three inches right and one inch south of his bellybutton.
She couldn't see the whole thing because half of it was hidden by the bottom of his New Mutants uniform, but she could still identify that it was Superman's emblem. While waiting for him to respond, Kitty took notice of the happy trail of hair under his navel.
Lex looked a her finger's placement and said, "Oh, you mean this? I got it for my 17th birthday." Lex pushed down a little bit of his uniform so the complete tattoo was showing.
"Yeah why'd you like, get it?"
"I liked Superman as a kid and I thought the symbol looked good, so…here it is. If that's all then I guess I'll be going." Lex said walking out of Kitty's room.
Professor Xavier and Forge were in the lower levels of the mansion discussing Forge's new invention.
"So Forge, what exactly does it do?" Xavier asked.
"I came up with it when you called me. It'll erase last night's related events from the human mind in the last. What do you think?"
"I think it's a great idea. We should notify everyone immediately." Professor Xavier said, rolling into the elevator with Forge.
Sorry about this chapter being so short but I'm swamped with schoolwork. Hope you enjoyed. Please Review.
