Hey and thank you all for your reviews, that means a lot!
In this chapter some OC chapters are included, and in the same time, i have to warn about character death.
Don't worry to soon, it won't be neither Kitty or Kurt..
I still don't own x-men..
So here I was, in a warehouse, still in Paris, with a red eyed leader who claimed to be
the world's greatest thief, and a bunch of other mutant's that I didn't really talk to, as it felt too awkward.
I had been there in two weeks, and already learned some basic street fighting techniques,
and learned what to steal and what not to. I, as everyone else, got a completely different look.
My hair went from butt long to shoulder short, set up in a ponytail, and my dress got replaced by normal Jeans and a long sleeved shirt.
As I thought my little makeover was finished, I found myself in the middle of a circle, as my last but still important finish was a good code name.
Gambit had told us, that code names was necessary in the streets, as our own names could prove dangerous.
It felt unsafe and unpleasant to be the center of attention, while different weird or good names came up,
but none of them seemed personal to me at all. I looked bewildered at all the different faces,
as they stared back at me. At the end, as none of the names seemed fitting, I chose one myself.
I changed Kitty to cat, and then set shadow in the front of it, making my name Shadowcat.
It had taken me a lot of time, but it ended up pretty good. Kurt kept the name Nightcrawler that he got from his old circus.
We got divided into three different teams, two with five, and then my team of four.
My team contained in me and Kurt, and then a girl named Tatiana, who we just called Tati, and her little brother Toby.
Tati was a twelve years old girl who was rather dark-skinned, and so were her little brother who was ten.
Tati had pigmentation disorder, which made her hands, feet back and belly look in a mix of brown and white,
but mostly her hands was hit. She had looked like that since she was a baby, and it didn't get worse by time.
She had light freckles on her cheek and nose, and shoulder long curly black hair,
and big amber colored eyes, which went a light yellow whenever she used her powers.
"I kinda sees and feels things before they happen, but not as simple as seeing the future, it's a little more complicated."
That's what she told me when I asked her about her powers, that day the teams was made.
Her brother had short curly black hair as his sister, and big black eyes. Not dark brown, just black.
They were actually pretty cute and not scary at all, only when his powers was used, as his eyes would get all black,
even the white would. His mutant power was his ability to take over another persons body, and control then for maximum fifteen seconds.
In the beginning, Remy wanted us on different teams, as they all in one way or another was very handy,
when you had to escape quickly but silently, but instead he picked our team to make the big and much more dangerous robberies.
We went from private homes and little shops, to big malls and museums.
It pretty much was the same every time. I phased us through the walls, if there were security cameras and/or alarms,
Toby would control the guard in the control room and get him to turn them off, where after he would knock him unconscious to be sure.
Then we would start picking the most important and expensive stuff.
If another guard came to close, Tati would warn us about his presence, as she could fell if someone came to close,
and then Kurt would teleport us out of there, and back to safety.
We were actually a really good team all in all, but I knew we couldn't stay there forever.
Christmas came, and even though I didn't celebrate Christmas, I participated anyway,
as I needed something positive. I only got one gift, which was a stuffed animal dragon, that I decided to call Lockheed.
After being there for over a month, I was now friends with almost everyone,
but I knew we had to get going, and the longer I stayed there, the harder it would be to leave everyone.
For some time, I began thinking, that staying might be an option, as I was very happy there,
but when Tati started to shake and talk in her sleep about a great danger that soon would come,
I just knew it was a sign to flee. I was starting to wake up in the middle of the night, and every time I did so, Kurt was gone.
We went to bed at the same time every night, and our beds was right beside each-other,
but when I woke, his bed was always empty. I had no idea where he went.
I talked once again to Remy about leaving, and get to America, but he didn't wanna leave,
not even when I told him about Tati's vision. He seemed to have something that kept him there,
something important he didn't tell anyone.
One night I stayed awake, in hope to see where Kurt went, hoping to be able to follow him.
As he suddenly woke in bed, looking sweaty and scared as he took his hands to his head,
and looked over at Tati, who once again was talking in her sleep. Then he looked at me,
and I hurried to close my eyes, as he couldn't know I was keeping an eye on him.
As I carefully opened my eyes, he was in the process of taking a blouse on.
As he was ready to port away, I threw myself over him. He twitched in shock,
before he Bamfed us both to the roof. He fell on his knees as he kept shaking,
before he asked me why I did that. "I had to know where you were going every night"
I said, before I sat myself beside him. "I don't like being reminded of danger every night,
so I escape to the roof to look at the stays. They aren't always visible, but it still better..
Do you think she's right about danger, I thought we were done running.." He asked,
looking at me with big pale eyes. "I don't know elf, I don't hope so, but I can't deny it either.
We might be in danger, so we have to make it to America soon.."
We both started to look at stars for some minutes, before we went inside because of the cold weather..
As we came inside, the others had made a circle around Tati's bed, and as we came closer,
I saw that she was laying and shaking violently with open yellow, shining eyes, as she kept whispering
"They're coming closer!" Then Remy suddenly came running into the room, and yelled
"We have to get away from here, now! They have found us, and are now on their way!
Olivia who's a friend of mine just called and told me! Wait, what's wrong with Tati?" He ran to her bed and picked her up,
as he yelled that we had to follow him. He left her in the van, as we too went inside.
He was finally ready to listen to me, as we now were heading to the harbor, to a little private ship.
He had a lot of contacts, he had told us. I couldn't believe he knew Olivia, what a consequence..
We had been driving for long without any persecutors, and finally thought that luck finally was with us,
but as we came to the harbor, we got surrounded by men in black with big guns, who came from every corner.
Remy whispered to me and Kurt to get us away, and get to the boat. Fuzzy tried to tell him that there was a great risk Bamfing blind,
but he told him to do it anyway. He did as told, and got as many as eight with him. I knew I could phase us through and away,
but as I panicked, I wasn't fast enough, and they started shooting at us. I phased myself and two others,
so we didn't get hit, but there were still three who wasn't intangible, who ended getting hit, and one of them were poor Toby.
He felt to the ground, after getting shot in the stomach. I yelled at the bottom of my longs as I saw him falling right beside me,
and I felt very guilty for not saving him, and the other two, as they too fell down dead. I ran through the men in front of me,
while I held the two phased kids in their hands, so they didn't get hurt. When we came to the boat,
we had to jump to it, as it was on its way to the big seas.
As we came on board and inside, Kurt was laying in a bed, sweaty and queasy with a ice pack on his head,
which Remy was holding. At the beginning I thought it was Remy who had to sail the ship,
but he apparently had a private captain. He looked at me concerned, as he saw I only had two with me.
As it couldn't get worse, Tati came running, and asked me where Toby was.
I couldn't tell her, it just hurt too much. He had been like a little brother to me too,
but i wasn't as close to him as she was. He was her everything, her little angel, and the only thing she had left from her past,
and now he wasn't there anymore. I broke down and started crying, so I sat down on a chair.
It was an okay big boat actually, and it didn't feel too crowded.
Tati suddenly looked very pale, almost as she already knew only caused by my tears, as she ran out of the little room.
Still crying, I asked Remy about blue boy, and he told me he was very sick by porting eight people.
I suddenly heard someone crying right outside the door. I once again felt guild, but in the same time knew I couldn't do anything about it now.
I went out of the room and tried to comfort her as much as possible, but she didn't want to listen to me at all.
Instead she started yelling at me, before she once more left me to feel the pain of death.
That night I didn't sleep, as I said yes to stay awake to hold an eye on Kurt.
I tried to keep the ice pack on his forehead as he twisted and turned in pain, while holding his stomach tight.
It felt awful to know he had accepted this incredible pain, so that the others would be safe,
when I only saved two. I hadn't done enough. It was my fault! It all was.
He looked like someone who was about to die, as he moaned in pain.
He threw up most of the night, and at the end I was close on doing it too, but thankfully didn't.
When he finally lay still, I fell asleep in the chair beside him.
It had been a awful day, but Tati was right, danger was still there...
