Mumbling, that's what I hear. No, it's not mumbling… it's just muffled. What's wrong with my hearing and why is everything black? Oh, am I asleep? Or was I? Am I awake now?

"Look into her thoughts, now! I want to know who this girl is and why she is so important to Destiny!"

It was a woman, and she didn't know how to whisper. Is she talking about me?

"It doesn't work like that; she needs to be somewhat conscious!" A man's voice. Old and gravely. Alright eyes, open!

I gasp suddenly and my eyes burst open. Everything was blurred at first, and then everything came into focus. I was in some sort of warehouse with crates everywhere. A blue women was in front of me – the loud speaker – and she was speaking to a hunched over man. They both look at me.

"Who are you?" I try to stand up, not realizing that I'm bound in a wooden chair with medal arcs over my wrists and ankles. Well, I realize it now.

"I'm Mystique and this is Mastermind"

"Is everyone in this town out to get me or something? What do you want and where the hell am I?" These people need to pick on someone else. Wasn't I just at the mansion?

Neither of them answered me. Instead it was a man with a red helmet over his head. I knew about this guy as well. His name was Erik, but people called him Magneto.

"You are in the home of The Acolytes" I can't help but scoff.

"Some home… it's just as bad as the brotherhood"

"It seems as though everyone is out to get you, considering you burned off Pyro's outfit. Anyway, if you must know…"

"I must indeed" I interrupt. She ignores me.

"…Mastermind is here to see your past and try to see if your powers could possibly save the world. See, Destiny can see the future, and she said that you are crucial in the fight against Jean. I just want to know what makes you special," Mystique finishes.

"You're not the only one" I mumble, agitated.

"I don't want anyone to see my past. You're just going to have to force me somehow" Why do I always challenge people?

"That's what this chair is for" Mystique walks toward a metal rolling shelf with some sort of knob on the top. She turns it and electricity buzzes through it. I wasn't expecting it, so it shocked me at first, sending a surging pain through my body. That is, until I start to absorb it.

I laugh as she turns it off.

"Are you stupid? Did the boys NOT tell you what my power is?"

"No, they didn't" She groans through her teeth.

Out of the shadows, Gambit appears. Was he listening to all of this? Colossus appears too, as well as Sabortooth (Also seen on the news) and Pyro. He was in normal clothes – a red sweatshirt over a white t-shirt.

"It's very fascinating, really. She's probably a level five mutant," Gambit states, twiddling a card in his fingers.

"Yeah, I could break out of here right now," I growl, smirking a bit.

"Oy wouldn't do that, luv" Pyro says, crossing his arms.

"Why do you keep calling me luv?" I counter.

"Cause I'm Australian, mate. Plus it's fun to say, luv."

"Well how come you don't call me love then?" Sabortooth asks, taunting him.

"Oh go play with a ball of yarn somewhere else" I say, and he growls at me. Pyro and Gambit laugh.

"STOP TALKING!" Mystique yells.

Someone has anger issues, jeez.

"Now, go into her head and find some answers," Magneto tells Mastermind. The old dude steps in front of me. I try to move my hands, but I'm stuck, and before I can get away, a pain enters my head.

It's awful, as if I can feel him probing my mind. I scream at the horrendous pain, but he doesn't stop.

I'm suddenly faced with one of my worst nightmares; my past.

Review if you want! Next you get to find out about her past! *gasp*
