Leaky Pipe Ch. 8
Chapter 8
Frosty Relations
Before any more damage than had already incurred could, incur, the fabulous three-in-one stepped in, offering their heroic efforts.
"Ms. Frost, really... Is that how civil adults talk?"
They echoed one another in unison and Emma froze, staring at the doorway where the three stood unwavering, clearly having a blast.
She swept her hair back in a frustrated gesture and Scott looked pleadingly and gratefully at them and thought loudly to them, "THANK YOU."
They merely smiled back at him.
Emma breathed out dangerously, "Are you taking his side...?"
Mindee simply replied, "Always."
Celeste burst out, "YOU needn't ever doubt that, unfaithful cow-I mean, Ms. Frost."
Emma narrowed her eyes blearily at the three before collapsing to her knees, spilling much of her drink to the floor.
She sobbed and half screamed out, "Girls leave this instant, Ms. Frost and Mr. Summers are having a very important grown-up discussion and things are about to get ugly."
She threw back the remainder of her drink before tossing it at Scott who ducked back behind her dresser, watching helplessly as the glass cascaded down the wall in pieces.
Phoebe laughed haughtily, "Grown up, look at you. You can't even think coherently right now, your thoughts are so loud and all over the place you are being so messy and emotional like a temper tantrum throwing child. Some master mind psychic you are, literally, master of your own mind. Not."
The other two merrily laughed in response and Emma looked up horrified, "Get out!"
She trembled and groaned, "Oh I need another drink. Girls be a dear and get me another drink will you? Belvedere on the rocks, filled to the brim."
The three tilted their perfect heads simultaneously, eyes all white and blank, "We don't just do any regular old crony's bidding, what do you think we are? House elves? We're leaving and we're not coming back. Come with us, Mr. Summers, we have important talks we want to engage with you in, and it looks like you need our help out of this increasingly dire and desperate situation. Come, let us leave the old hag to her demise."
"Mr. Summers" all but leapt up and fled out of the room and cowered behind the three girls, in their prep school matching uniforms, while he shook in a towel.
"Thank you girls, I don't know if you realize it but you just may have saved my actual life!"
The three in-one smiled genuinely at him and said together, "Just tell your O5 teen self what we did and have him thank us for you too, personally, and in private. We'll fill him in on Ms. Frost's non-idle threats, and warn him of the dangers of aging female desperation. He is like a sitting duck with that foul temptress around in her awful bondage wear. Who does she think she is?"
As Magik sharpened one of the soul daggers in her bedroom, she reminisced back to her night with Scott, and a newfound peace washed over her in a way she had never experienced before. Especially since her descent into Hell as a child.
Carefully lying the sharpened obsidian flint curved raptor claw-like blade against its leather sheath, she absent mindedly wondered if she could try what she had done to Scott on his younger time travel self. She sat back on her bed and looked down at her collection of knives and daggers she had forged from Limbo, laid out in a row before her waiting to be sharpened, shined, and polished to lethal perfection.
She smoothed out the gray duvet cover as she lifted another one up to the light, letting the gleaming bloodstone shine immaculately in its deepened hue, glinting off her glassy, pale blue irises.
They were practically the same person so would it not be ethically ok?
And he was her age, the O5 one that was. Wouldn't that make it even more ok and legal-er?
AN: Sorry this chapters so short, it is just a teaser filler chapter while i wait for some motivation and inspiration to hit me. If anyone has any ideas or things they'd like to see, its all highly appreciated! Thanks and R and R!
MORRIS777: Thank you so much for the invaluable inspiration, reviews, constructive advice, and insight. I will get back to u in new chapters of my other stories I am just waiting for more ideas and motivation to hit me. Sorry this chapter's a bit short, it was a draft I had going and simply couldn't think of more to add to it. I am just getting back into things as u say and def need some inspiraton and fuel. Yes this is an old story im revisiting thanks so much for following it and reading and reviewing it and giving it life!
LOGIC SOLDIER: You are right! I think they both feel that way too, just in the heat of the moment in emma's drunken and upset state and scott's riled up attacked state, old hurts and traumas resurfaced and they didn't exactly mean it it just came out that way because of heightened emotions at that time. That's a good point, its good to see a fan stand up for cyclops and what he did to xavier, and not blaming him or anyone being posessed for things they did under posession. Brings up a unique new viewpoint. Thanks!
