X-Men Legacy Legend: Thoughts = <> Stray thoughts = ()
Ok, guys, All the disclaimers apply, that means all thanks goes to Marvel for the X-Men, I'm just making the story. And I do read all the other stories, and they're great, keep up the good work. They inspire me! Plus I would like you to think of these stories as episodes in seasons.
Chapter 11: Speechless
After the museum, I rested in the Med Bay for a while before eventually heading to my room. I had been the Med Bay because of these strange headaches I had been having since the museum. The team had gone ahead with the debriefing, but I decided to skip it. Amara and Jubilee had joined as I watched wrestling, John Cena vs. Edge.
I stared at the screen: He's hot...
Jubilee: Which one?
I smirked: Good point.
Amara: Who cares, you've got Jace, Scott, Bobby, and Johnny, freakin, Storm! And I've seen Logann watching as of lately. Lucky bastard!
I shook my head: Logan...really?
Jace interrupted before I got an answer: Yeah, I get a weird vibe when you're around him. Hey Amara, Jubilee, will you excuse us?
Jubilee and Amara got and mouthed, " Get it!" as they walked to the corner.
I shifted uncomfortably: So, a visit...right, well how'd your mission go? Obviously better than ours, huh?
Jace chuckled: You don't have to be nervous, I'm not gonna hit on you right now. Your half broken and I don't think Scott would like it.
I chuckled: Since when do you care?
Jace: I don't...not really, but it would get annoying for you. I heard you can expect numerous visitors...they're worried. Oh, and the mission...it went without a hitch, we got there first. I've got to go, I'm tutoring some air head, so see ya later.
I stopped him: Wait! They're worried, do you mean...
Jace smiled: Can't get anything past an empath! I mean we...we were worried.
He smiled again and left, leaving me with a smile across my face.
Turns out that Jace wasn't kidding, a group came by that consisted of Kitty, Marie, Remy, Piotr, Kurt, Hank, Warren, and my usual circle of friends, plus after them, Ororo and Jean, then Logan came in.
Logan stood in the door: You know, short stuff, I think you're pretty brave. you went back to get him...
I was shocked:....Logan, you barely say two syllables to most people, but you hold a conversation with me...why? It make me feel all warm and mushy inside.
He laughed: We're friends, aren't we?
I stopped laughing: Yeah.
He walked over and hugged me, then headed for the door.
Logan: I have to go work on the jet. Later, bub.
Logan left, but bumped into somebody on the way out.
Johnny: Nice claws...Jerk! Oh, hi.
It was the Fantastic Four!
I smiled: Hey guys, what's up? Not more bad, right?
Sue: No, relax, we just wanted to say hi and thanks.
Reed: Yes, when you zapped Doom, he stayed unconscious and we were able to apprehend him.
Ben: Yeah, kid, you pack a wallop! So thanks.
Sue looked at Johnny: Well, we'll be going...It was so nice to meet you and we hope to see you soon.
Reed: On a less distressing occasion, though.
They all shook my hand before leaving, but one of the group was uncharacteristically quiet.
Johnny spoke sincerely: Hey, I really want to thank you, you saved me, and for that thanks.
I smiled: Yeah, like I was gonna let Johnny Storm die, then who would make sarcastic comments, and attempt to sleep with me?
We both laughed.
Johnny: I might just have to come around here more...call me when you're 18.
He looked directly into my eyes: Or whenever...
Scott stood in the doorway: Or not.
Johnny and I looked at Scott, then Johnny walked past Scott and looked at me: And I will see you later.
They gave each other the evil eye before Johnny finally left and I noticed the flowers in Scott's hands.
Scott tossed the flowers at me: Here!
Before he got back to the door, I got up: What?! You left me! Am I supposed to pine over you forever?
Scott: Yeah, or at least for a while! At least not jump on the first...
Me: I can't! I don't have the luxury! Do you want to hear me say 'I love you'?! I do, I love you...
I stopped, realizing I just said I love you to Scott.
Scott: I'm sorry, I walked in and...I miss you.
I began to cry: Maybe I am too young.
Scott: I have to go, we really need to get those files before...do I have a chance, any chance at all with you?
I hugged him: Yeah, the biggest.
Scott: Well, we're going on a mission with the Fantastic Four and Excalibur right away, but I'll call you.
I broke the hug and he left. I looked back at Amara and Jubilee, who seemed to be in shock at the events that had just taken place. My head pounded out of my head and I left after him, walking back to my room.
I guess The X-Men and our guests left right away, because that morning they were gone. I had made a decision before I went to bed. I decided that I was going home for a while, not forever, just until everything calmed down.
Professor X: Are you sure?
I nodded: I can come back, right, it's only temporary. Maybe a couple of days, or weeks.
Professor then nodded: Of course, but first we have to check you, and also check your headaches.
After we did everything necessary, I had to say goodbye to the group.
Amara: What in the hell do you mean?!
Jubilee hugged me tight: No! I'll miss you so much.
The guys took it pretty hard, but put on a happy face, except for Jace.
I walked to him: Don't worry...I...
Jace: ...Running...from your problems isn't the way.
I frowned: I'm not running, I just need some rest.
Jace: And now is suddenly the time, look I heard what happened with you and Scott and...
I was angry: What? That's not...I need this! Don't you think I deserve a rest?
Jace: Yeah, but...
I shushed him: No buts. I'll be back.
Jace: You're okay, right?
I nodded.
Professor X
Ray: I do believe that's your call.
I smiled and hugged the group. I levitated the bags to the jet outside and boarded it.
On the way home, I knew I'd have to explain things to people, but now I was worried about the X-Men. My cell phone ran and Scott's name popped up on the screen, but I didn't answer it. I looked ouside to see my home. once we landed, I thanked Betsy and got off the plane to see my mother and aunt. I hugged them noticed that there was a party going on.
I smiled: So, did I miss a birthday?
Mom: No, silly, it's for you!
I smiled brighter than ever and went inside to see all my family members, who'd all changed so much. It wasn't too long into the party before mom took me to my room, which seemed much cleaner this time around.
Mom: I'm not gonna beat around the bush, I need to tell you more about your...
She seemed so strained
I was confused: It's not important.
Mom shushed me: We need to talk about this, so just listen. Pietro Maximoff is your father, For the last 16 years, I've made an illusion of the person you thought was your father. he...we met a long time ago and had a relationship, but because i was at the mansion and he stood by his father, I couldn't see him. On the night you were concieved, Apocalypse took him over, which means that you have two fathers.
I was shocked:...Magneto's son...that would make me...
Mom: Magneto's grandson.
I couldn't contain myself any longer and I bust into tears! I remembered the conversations I'd had with Magneto and how he told me to ask Xavier, so everyone knew...Apocalypse was my father too?! He'd made his son into a key! I ayed there crying. I telekinetically pushed the door shut after mom walked out of the room. I didn't feel like going back to the party, so I fell asleep there.
