WHAT'S UP?! Saw Transformers: Age of Extinction and I have to say I really enjoyed it, but I will also say that Michael Bay isn't the top of my favorites list. Won't go into detail, but he's killed all of my fave Bots, except for three! I can honestly tell ya that I cried. I ain't ashamed of it, course my friends all laugh, but whatever. Anyways, enough of that (although you can never have too much Transformers). So, I don't like how Renesme is practically an adult in a kid body. I'm going to make her seem younger, but she'll still be a little more mature than a lot of kids. Oh, and there will most likely be some spoilers for X-Men: Days of Future Past, just to warn ya. Shall we continue with Lexine?

Thinking

Emphasis on a thought

Disclaimer: I don't own anything X-Men or Twilight, all I own is Lexine, her foster parents, and her foster brother, who is sadly deceased.

We brought our fight to you

Bella and Edward led me to a cliff and I gazed with wide eyes at the river below with forest all around it and mountains in the background, "Wow." I heard a chuckle and I glanced at Bella before looking back at the view, "Like it, Lexi?" I gave a small smile and replied softly, "I've never seen anything like it. Granted, I haven't traveled much and I didn't really have time to see anything when I was out and about for missions." I felt someone grab my hand and my gaze snapped down to see Renesme holding my hand and smiling up at me.

I gave a cautious smile back and she positively beamed before letting go and walking to a patch of wildflowers. I looked at my hand for a second, She wasn't scared of me. I can't believe it. I looked up because I remembered Edward could read thoughts and he studied me for a minute, "Lexine, she has no reason to be afraid of you. Nessie knows you won't hurt any of us. She has a way of sensing people that are good." I didn't show anything on the outside, but inside I was reeling back from the thought of me being good. Edward's eyes narrowed as he continued, "You may not believe it, Lexine, but you are good. You are kind and loving.

This time I snorted and replied dryly, "You're way off-track there, Eddie boy. Just remember that you don't know me and you don't know anything about me." He went to reply, but we all looked up in confusion at the plane flying low to the trees. I heard a swish before someone went flying by me and I recognized the person when Bella screamed a name, "Renesme!" Before I thought about what I was doing and before her parents could do anything, I took off running and leaped up the rope before holding myself beside Renesme, "Hey, remember me? I'm your mommy's friend. I'm goin' to help ya." The girl sniffled and I quickly cut the rope with one claw before latching onto my friend's daughter, "Sweetie, wrap your legs around my waist and your arms around my neck."

As she went to follow my orders, she let go when I gasped from a bullet hitting me. She screamed and I quickly straightened my body to fly more aerodynamically through the air to Renesme. Once I reached her, I grabbed her and she wasted no time in wrapping her arms and legs around me in a death grip. I saw the cliff wall getting closer, "Okay, sweetie, keep holding on as tight as possible. This is goin' to be a bumpy ride." It was somehow possible for her grip to tighten and I let go of her as my claws unsheathed. Bracing myself for impact and against the bullets hitting the back of me, I dug my claws into the rocks and felt us slowly come to a stop.

I held back a groan of pain as I pulled one hand out and moved it up before pulling my body up and using my other hand to continue climbing. I used one arm to help push Renesme over the top of the cliff edge as her parents pulled her before I hauled myself up. I was panting heavily as a familiar, surprising voice called out in worry, "Lexi!" Victor wasted no time in dropping to his knees beside me before picking me up and running off, so I could heal in peace. Magneto used his power to pull the bullets out and I ended up with five in my back, two in my left calf, and one in my right shoulder.

That would have explained all the pain. Sadly, it took a couple hours before I had even healed enough to fall into an uneasy sleep. A few days later, I was healed to the point I could walk around a little with help, so I was allowed to go to the meeting the X-Men were having. Taking a seat, Bobby sat on my right with Peter beside him while Kitty was on Peter's right.

Storm was beside Kitty, then Hank, then Magneto, then Professor X, and Victor was beside me. I grumbled inside, but didn't allow anything to show outwards, except for indifference, until Storm spoke, "What happened the other day, Lexi?" I sat up straighter and answered, "A plane flew by and caught Renesme. I rescued her and got made into Swiss cheese in the process. I didn't recognize the plane though. It had a symbol on it though. I've seen the symbol. It looks like a shield with a funky line going through it." Beside me, Victor tensed and he spat out, "Stryker." I glanced at him in surprise before nodding, "Knew I recognized it. Logan has a picture from back then and I saw the symbol on a guy's hat."

All the professors shared looks and Hank spoke, "This is worrisome. The men that attacked had the same symbol. How did they find us? And what do they want?" Kitty decided to add her input, "Maybe they weren't after us this time. I mean, they grabbed the little girl, instead of Lexine. If they wanted us, wouldn't they have grabbed Lexi?" I frowned as my brow knitted and they all continued speaking before looking at me when I swore, "What is it, my dear?" Not able to look at Professor X for fear of angering him again, I answered, "We brought this to the Cullen's front doorstep. Stryker is after us, but they also found another being that is different than humans: vampires and half-vampires. This may be our war, but we just hand delivered a live grenade to their family."

I could see everyone thinking about it as Magneto spoke, "Miss Howlett makes sense. Stryker is more concerned about humans being able to survive than he is with leaving everyone in peace. What should we do, Charles?" Before the professor could answer, Victor spoke, "We should kill him." Kitty and the professors all disagreed, but I spoke up once more, "That may be our only way to survive. If he was able to capture Logan and cage him without trouble, then who knows what could happen to the rest of us? I hate to agree with Victor, and I do, trust me, he may be right. There's a good chance that we'll have to kill Stryker before he kills more of us. Come on, he nearly killed Storm when we had warning! Who the heck knows what will happen next? We become experiments, are we killed? Are we tortured?"

I folded my arms as I looked up at them all, still avoiding the professor's gaze, and saw most of them saw sense in what I said. I stood up, "I'm going to warn the Cullens. There is a war coming and they need time to run." Without another word, Peter stood up and followed me out before helping me through the forest. We eventually arrived at the Cullen residence and I eyed all the tan, well-muscled, and shirtless guys standing outside with the Cullens. I was leaning most of my weight on my boyfriend as we came to a stop before them and I looked Carlisle in the eyes, "I don't know if Alice has seen anything, but we came to warn you. Your family is in danger and you need to leave. Hide somewhere remote where nobody can ever find you."

He eyed me before questioning, "What is happening, Miss Howlett?" Peter and I shared a look and I sighed, "A man named Stryker is coming to either kill or capture us. It is our fault that they tried to take Renesme. They somehow found out about what you guys are and they have apparently decided that they need to capture you as well. Believe me that we never meant to drag you into our war. We didn't even know they had found us." Bella spoke up, "I'm staying and helping you fight, Lexi." I narrowed my eyes and growled, "No." She glared back at me, "Yes. You need help and I'm going to help you, whether ya want me to or not."

My eyes changed to red and I stood up straight as pain resonated in my voice, "No! I will not lose anymore family to him. I can't lose you too, Bell, so no. Run and hide. Stay safe." Her eyes softened a little, "Lexi, you won't lose me. I'm helping, so get over it." I glowered, but let my eyes change back as Peter wrapped an arm around my waist as Emmett spoke, "Well, now that you two are done fighting, let's kick some butt!" Carlisle chuckled good-naturedly at his son before looking at me, "Tell your professor that we will all help." I sighed, "I just lost that battle. Dang it. Fine, but if you die, it ain't on my head. I warned ya. Come with us and talk to the professor. He probably has some stuff to explain." I looked at the tan guys and noticed one was a girl, who was eying me with distrust, "These are the werewolf packs. Jacob Black leads one and Sam Ulley leads the other. Seth, Leah, Embry, and Quil are in Jacob's pack. Collin, Brady, Paul, and Jared are with Sam's pack."

I eyed them before sighing again and muttering, "Werewolves exist too now. If fairies are real, then I'm throwing myself off the highest thing I can find." Peter lightly smacked the back of my head and I thought about flipping him off, but saw Renesme was watching, so I settled for elbowing my boyfriend in the ribs. I nodded to the two packs and said, "I'm Lexine and this is Peter. We're mutants and part of the X-Men team. Let's get going then." Peter once more helped me through the forest until Bella came up, "I want to speak with her alone, Peter, mind if I borrow her?" He shook his head and started talking to Emmett as Bella took my weight, "What's up, Bell?"

Edward appeared on my other side and spoke, "We wanted to thank you for saving our daughter. We can't ever repay you for that, but let us know if there is anything we can ever do for you." I shrugged, "I didn't do much. You don't need to repay me for anything." Bella shook her head fondly, "You've always brushed off everyone's gratitude and praise. For once, don't argue and accept it," I opened my mouth to protest, but she gave me a pointed look, "Don't even start, Lexi." My mouth shut with a clack and I pouted at her while her and her husband laughed, Ain't funny. I didn't do anythin' special or great. I did what anyone would have done. Edward groaned and pinched the bridge of his nose, "Lexine, what are we going to do with you?" I inwardly cringed at the sentence while replying tonelessly, "Give me to Stryker."
