X-Men: Restoration

Chapter Eleven: Hope Winters

"Well you ought to have thought of that!" Hope yelled as she hit the wall with her fist. She grimaced as she shook her hand to get the feeling into it. Levi had just got on her last nerve by telling her all she was good for was his math homework. He continued on about how she used to be the pet of Mystique because of her foster parents. Her foster parents knew Mystique.

Levi strutted ahead as Hope escaped up the stairs. It was just them at school while the gang and Mystique's two new pets Abby and Nathalie went gallivanting about in the X geek's Blackbird to do who knows what. What was so good about mind and physical control? That Abby girl so is copying her highlights. She twisted a lock of blond hair as she flashed her light blue highlights. No one copies Hope Winters. Yet, she found herself doing everyone's math homework.

She was unique. Indispensable! She could calculate within milliseconds how the impact of a punch would fall, she could see the physical force. She could see where the debris would fall if a bomb would explode and what its radius would be more accurate than a computerized simulator would ever be. Most of all, she studied those X-geeks like no other and she knew every weakness they had from their power signature. She was valuable.

Hope sighed as she ran up the stairs and passed the green haired weirdo. She snickered at him as she stuck out her foot. She heard a stumble and crash at the bottom.

"Guess it is not your lucky day." She laughed as she fluffed her blond hair.

"Hey, you there Icy! How about you say sorry to the lad?" An unfamiliar voice said. She spun around to see the new exchange student standing there helping the X-geek up. Ah, another enemy to fight with. She groaned not interested in saying sorry to the clumsy geek. He probably would have fallen down the stairs by himself. He has the power of luck but it isn't worth a lot.

"Don't mess with her, man. She isn't anyone to mess with. She will blast you out of this world with her intellect." The green haired freak said as he chased after the Asian X-geek. She rolled her eyes as she contemplated about how she could get in favor with Mystique again.

She walked down the hallway as she went to her class and saw Trent Bamback putting up anti mutant posters. She saw the formulas for the perfect crash landing. They were different colors and they filled the air around her. She gently pushed past the mob, sending a chain reaction through the crowd where Trent wouldn't even know what hit him as a slushie fell at the flawless angle to make it explode in his face. She heard thirty seconds later, the slush and ice splatter across his face as he turned around. He started yelling at the person who looked like the culprit, threatening him. She smiled deviously. Her mind wasn't just good for homework because life was filled with physics equations just waiting for her to crack. No one at the Brotherhood treated her that way.

She sat in her BC physics class, dully bored out of her mind. Hope was just writing wrote the answer to a complicated problem on the board. Her professor, Trip was amazed at her talents. Hands down, she was the smartest person in the class. She sat back in her seat to only hear a disturbing sound that came from outside. Everyone ran to the windows to see what it was. It was one of the hotter days that fall so they had opened up the windows to let the air in. It made it all the clearer to hear shouts outside.

Her eyes widened in amazement as she a dinosaur outside the window, growing. She ran out the door as people started screaming in terror. She needed to get closer to the dinosaur. She suspected the dinosaur was something more than just an illogical unexplainable dinosaur. She thought it was a mutant, it was the only explanation.

She had to talk to him or her because he would be a great asset to the Brotherhood. She would also train him to respect her not like the others treated her. She ran down the stairs as her heels clacked. She saw the x-gals and boys running in the same direction towards the chaos and madness in the hallways. They were trying to calm people down and she saw the Asian and the twins break off from that group and run towards the football field.

She smiled coyly as she sprinted in the opposite direction, she was smarter than that. She collided with somebody's back as she opened the janitor's closet. She fell back infuriated. She blew the hair out of her face as she glanced up. She saw green hair and a hand to help her up. She got up by herself as she smacked the hand away.

"What in the world are you doing here?" Hope exasperated as she caught her breath.

"Well…this was the way of least traffic according to the probability to get to the football field since there is a door th.." He buzzed as he stood there.

"SHUT UP!" She yelled as she pushed past him and bolted out the door onto the football field. The football field was a wreck and there was the Asian and those twins trying to stop him. She saw Sakura spray the beast with the water from the automatic sprinkler. She saw the elegant angles and the force of how the water would fall. She saw the Dante twins pulling things out of the ground which she supposed were ghosts. She ignored them since they looked silly but their powers subdued the dinosaur by calming his reactions to being sprayed by water. She hated to say it but she needed Levi. It was three against one, because Sliders didn't count.

"Somebody…get Bobby!" Hope heard Sliders yell from behind her. She heard a smack and she whipped around to see Levi. Mark Sliders was down on the ground cold.

"Finally, he shut up." Levi laughed as the Asian squirted him with water. He laughed once again. "Did you need some back up Calc cutie?" Hope groaned. Levi said as he pulled off his wet shirt.

"Call me that again and I swear you will be running for your life after I am done with you. And put your shirt back on for goodness sake!" She answered. Levi chuckled as he flexed his abs. She hissed in reply as saw his weak pressure point. If she hit it at this speed, as she swung her arms a few times to get the speed just right, it should knock him over. She went over to him as Levi grinned as she flipped her hair back.

"Oh, sweetie are you coming to Levi." She rolled her eyes as she jabbed Levi in the neck with her pointer and middle finger. Levi fell to the ground as he groaned. Hope then kicked him with her foot in the side.

Hope could now study the dinosaur in peace. The dinosaur roared furiously as he ripped up the football field as the x-geeks tried to contain him. She calculated the pressure as each enormous foot fell on the green plush grass. She watched his movements carefully as the X-geeks pranced around him like crazy ducks. She saw out of the corner of her eye the X-dweeb with the sunglasses running towards them.

"Richard! Richard! It's Ansleigh…" Ansleigh pleaded. Hope stared up at the dinosaur as this girl tried to communicate with it. Yeah, right. She thought as she attempted to calculate the dinosaur's weak spot. She smiled as the dinosaur went through continuous movements to block their attacks. Bobby came out followed by all of the rest of the X-gang. She grumbled in frustration as Levi was starting to get up.

The guy's weak spot was the cold that was why Sliders called out Bobby. He probably had the probability of the dinosaur's weakness in his lucky head. Hope bit her lip as that was her own weakness. She couldn't calculate luck. Luck was not based on formulas or theories. It was merely given to each person randomly. It was random.

She told Levi to follow her as she went back into the janitor's closet. The fight was already won X-geeks got this guy. Ansleigh knew him, they have more members and they know his weakness. There was no point in fighting a lost battle. This was what the Brotherhood saw as shameful but she knew better. Her world was based upon calculations and that was based on logic. Levi argued with her but she glared at him with disapproval. He was stupid.

She didn't need anyone's approval to be great. She was already amazing because she knew everyone's limitations. She knew you couldn't push yourself past that certain point. Yet the Brotherhood tried to push the limitations of a world who hated mutants…how could billions of normal people bow to mutants? Mutants were powerful and ever growing in the population but they were still the minority. The ordinary humans had luck on their side and she could feel it in her bones. They would crush the mutants rule due to their amount of rage and hatred of mutants.

There was still a chance that luck would be on her side with her beautiful gift. She wanted the humans to bow down to her because of what they did to her. Her foster parents sold her formulas to be used for weapons when she just lost her REAL parents in a tragic murder. This is still unsolved case today but she knew better. She was a genius for human benefit and they murdered her parents who loved her. Mystique broke her out from her prison at The Institution when she noticed Hope's assets. Mystique wasn't friends with her foster parents like everyone thought…she was sworn enemies. Her foster parents were scientists at The Institution. The Institution was the place where they tortured mutants for their experiments for who knew what. Hope stayed far away from that place since Mystique brought her to Bayville.

The Brotherhood maybe a group of senseless mutants who is trying to do something impossible….But they still had Hope. She beamed a grin at Levi who gave her an expression of realization. He finally understood her reason why she walked away. He laughed impressed by her skills as he gave her a bear hug. She gasped but she couldn't help but giggle. Levi wrapped his arm around her friendly as they walked out of the school, laughing at the chaos. The battle was lost but the war is not over.


Hope you liked it. What should I write about next? Give me certain characters this time. I have a list of them in the beginning so tell me who you are interested in hearing about. I was thinking of a certain X-Men character...(BUT if you give me a lot of feedback on a character then I will hold off) :)
