Chapter Six.
At Erik's house. Erik couldn't sleep he just laid there for a moment before getting up and headed downstairs to the kitchen where he made himself some coffee. He sat watching the news while drinking his coffee. "Erik. are you okay?" Carol asked. "Yeah, I'm fine, I just can't sleep!" He said, drinking his coffee. Carol sat with him and the two watched TV together. soon the news came on again and talked about the strange sightings. "Look at this, what are those things? Why are they here?" He asked. "I don't know sweetie, I just don't know!" She said, cuddling with him.
By morning Charles and his X-men were in the meeting room with Lilandra. "Repairs are under way upstairs!" Charles reported. "Professor, what's going on? Who was that guy? "Scott asked. "That was Adwin, Scott. He's an alien who's here to destroy our world. His plans are to destroy all life in the entire universe and cover the galaxy in darkness!" Charles told them. "Destroy us!" Kurt said. "Yes and unless he is stopped, he will become victorious!" Lilandra told them. "So, how do we stop this Adwin and his creatures. I tried slicing those things in half, didn't work?" Logan asked. "That's because you can't kill them that way. Darklings are immune to physical attack. The only thing that can hurt them is natural light. As for their master, there is only one who can stop Adwin and save all the galaxy now, but he's not even born yet!" Lilandra said. "Patrick!" Charles said. "Yes!" Lilandra said. Who's this Patrick?" Peter asked. "Patrick is the name of the alien baby, Jean's pregnant with!" Scott told them. "What?" Logan cried, in shock. "Jean's Pregnant with an alien?" Storm asked, also in shock "Yes, she is!" Charles said. "Charles it is important that this child makes it to birth, He's the only one who can stop Adwin and his Darklings from destroying the galaxy!" Lilandra told him. "Don't worry Lilandra, he'll make it, they both will. Once I use Ceribro to find them!" Charles said. "These metal balls are fascinating!" Hank said, looking at one while holding it. "Lilandra tell me about the children who threw these balls through my windows?" Charles asked. "The Arellians. They're race have been allies to my people for centuries!" Lilandra said. "Can you tell me where they are now?" Charles asked. "I'm sorry Charles, but I don't know where they are, they could be anywhere on this planet!" Lilandra told them.
Jean wakes up and finds herself in a strange bedroom. She got up confused, she didn't know why she was here or who brought her here. Jean looked around and happened to look at the doorway and saw a group of children looking at her from the doorway. The kids whispered to each other in their language. When a woman carrying a tray walked up to them. She spoke to them in their alien language and the kids ran off to play. The woman then carried the tray into the room. "Good morning, Lady Jean. How are you today?" She asked, putting the tray down. "Where am I and who are you?" She asked. "I am Filla, one of Empress Lily's servants and I have been asked by her highness to care for you today!" she said, lifting the lid off. "Breakfast my lady?" she said. Jean approached the tray. "Well, I am hungry, Thank you!" Jean said. "You're welcome. Oh, by the way her majesty would like to see you after your breakfast!" Filla said. Just then there was a knock at the door. The two of them turn to the door. As a group of women stepped in and curtsied. "Lady Jean, I am Nana her highness's head midwife. "We've come to check up on you and the baby!" She told her. "I'll check on you later!" Filla said, walking out of the room closing the doors behind her.
