Kitty's eyes fluttered open, revealing the condo's master bedroom ceiling. She smiled as she felt warm breath down her neck, and felt hands on her hips. Tony Stark sent them to an all expenses paid resort vacation in Hawaii, as a way to celebrate the honeymoon.
Kitty winces as your grip on her hips tightened painfully, but she doesn't get annoyed; only concerned. "Are you okay honey?", she asked you as you sat up. "It hurts", you mutter. Kitty frowns with concern, as this wasn't the first time this occurred.
At the wedding two days ago, as Kitty and you made out. You started hearing noises, after a while you realized you were reading everyone's minds. You tried to stop, but then you felt a psychic backlash. You get a terrible headache, which quickly grew worse. The pain drove you to your knees, its at this point that Kitty runs for help. Odin's guards take you to a medical wing, its here that you find your telepathy is growing. Xavier explained that until the telepathy stabilizes, the headaches may be frequent.
"Want something for the pain?", kitty asked. "Nothing will work, this headache stems from developing mutant powers", you tell her. "Okay, want some breakfast?", Kitty asked dialing room service.
Meanwhile, Charles Xavier was contemplating your growing telepathy. Hank McCoy walked into Xavier's office at this point, having crunched his own numbers. "Whats the verdict Hank?", Charles asked. "Just as you feared, Charles. Should Mr Taylor's telepathy continue to develop like this, it could just match your own in less then a year", Hank said. "I have no doubt he will be responsible with it", Charles said.
Outside the institute, all students and staff members were all engaged in some form of activity; well, almost all.
Laura sat under a shady tree, watching everyone partaking in activities she saw as either pointless or strange. She watched some students kicking around a black and white ball, until two scents approached her. Laura saw Logan and the new staff member, Katrina luck. "Hey kid, not hanging with the others?", Logan asked. "I am more concerned with maintaining a safe perimeter", Laura said. Laura sticks her arm out; claws extended, just as he black and white ball gets piked on them. Logan sets off towards the students, and Katrina sits next to Laura. Laura glances at Katrina, as she hears Logan send the kids to the danger room.
"So what is your idea of fun?", Katrina asked. "Training", Laura said. "OK then, after Logan and the kids finish; you and me are going in", Katrina said. After that they started talking girl stuff, as Katrina then vowed to bring Laura out of her shell.
Back in Hawaii, you and Kitty were on the beach when when two well known villains arrived. The first was a man with black hair, clad in various knives and gear; Kraven the hunter. The other was old and had all green, with a winged jet-pack; the vulture. The two were stealing rare animal stem cells from a research facility in the cove.
You had sent Kitty after vulture, and that left you with Kraven. You decide to go ghost rider for this fight, see Kraven's face when he sees a demon; you smile at the thought. You trigger the rider transformation, but something was wrong. The flames were blue, not orange. You didn't become a demon, you became an angel. Kraven took your distraction as an opportunity, he landed a solid punch to your chest; followed by a kick to the head. You grab a car and toss it at him, and he dodges; but takes a ball of holy-fire to the face. You charge him and plant your boot in his chest, before bringing both fist onto his left knee; then the other. His knees are not broken, but it will hurt to walk for a while.
You then swiftly punch his lights out, then run to check on Kitty. You find the vultures pack trashed, and the vulture tied up in chains; the general area was covered in claw marks. Kitty was tying the chains to a metal pole, when she looked up and saw you. "Got yours?", she asked; you nodded.
"Kitty?", you asked. "Yeah?", she asked. "I think that we should take Steve's offer to join the avengers into serious consideration", you say. Kitty just stares, her mouth dangling open in shock and surprise.
