X-Men Legacy

Chapter 18: You can always be on my team

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!

I was able to see into the future and into the past, but I really sucked at seeing the present. Seeing the signs of everything around me was my gift, but that really didn't include seeing my own life. Of course things around the mansion were cold. I felt like I lost my best friend. Bobby had stopped talking to me, along with half the group. It wasn't as if they wanted to hurt me or him intentionally, but that's the way it was. And Danger Room were fun, note my sarcasm, especially one in particular.

Team Scott: StormCat, Berserker, Magma, Multiple Man, Sunspot, and Spike.

Team Logan: Siryn, Jubilee, Colossus, Rogue, Iceman, and Mindrider(Jace).

This was a no power challenge for the flag. Scott, Logan, Mystique, Magneto, and Professor Xavier watched from above. While they explained the mission, Bobby didn't even acknowledge me. Ray, Rogue, Roberto, and Jaime also ignored me. For the past few days, I'd avoided him. I mean before we were friends and I figured that if he didn't like me anymore, then we could be friends, but now that he was jealous that Scott takes me out...freaks me out. While I was thinking about things, talking had stopped and it was time for strategy. I looked up at the sky and the trees all around us and I caught the end of the conversation.

" We need bait. If we could get one person away from looking for the flag, we can do this." Berserker said quickly.

I raised my hand, " I'll do it! I mean my powers of combat are pretty good." I said, electing myself.

Berserker continued, " No...I think you should look for the flag." he said with increasing concentration.

" But.." I muttered.

" No buts, I'm team captain and I say that you look." he said condescendingly.

" Asshole." I said, under my breath

Ray turned back to me, " What?" he said carefully.

I clenched my fist, " Nothing." I said, leaving to find the flag. I set out to find the freaking flag and I wasn't happy about it. I tugged at my inhibitor and wondered if I pull it off, would my team be disqualified. Probably, but it's not like my team care at the moment. I looked around for a while and tried to find it. I couldn't, so I walked on. I stopped when I walked into Bobby, who immediately took a fighting stance.

" What are you doing here?" he asked angrily.

" Thanks for the gracious welcome. I'm in the Danger Room, you do the math." I said casually.

" Ironic, huh." he smirked.

" What's that?" I asked.

" You've been avoiding me and now I'm here." he said with a faint smirk.

" Yeah, lucky me." I frowned, " Can we fight now?" I asked, bored with the banter.

Bobby smiled, " You don't get it, do you?" he asked in disbelief.

" No! Why don't you explain it to me?!" I shouted.

" Never mind." Bobby said, charging at me. I quickly evaded him by climbing a nearby tree and tried to dodge the ice blasts being hurled at me! I stopped when I saw the flag. Without thinking, I dove into the cold water below to retrieve the flag

" The flag's been found, time for some power play." Logan shouted through the speakers.

Underwater, I felt the inhibitor fail and I felt a chill run up my back, then if froze in the water.

Bobby stood at the edge of the water, " Over HERE! The flag is over here!" he said, trying to see through the ice. I couldn't let him win, especially since we were fighting, so I extended my mind and my powers and soon the sky darkened, the wind blew, the lightning struck, rain poured, and ice around me melted. I felt the familiar feeling of flames around me as I leapt out of the freezing water, gasping for air!

Bobby stared at me, " What took you so long?" he asked.

I didn't have to read his mind to know what he was thinking. He dove on me, pinning me down.

" Come on, just give up the flag." he said, struggling to keep me down, but I winked and he fell right through me!

" Sorry, I'm already gone, but you know my illusion, right? Cute, huh?" my illusion said joyfully. I had already started running away with the flag in hand. I talked into my com, knowing the only person who could hear at the moment was Scott. I talked to him, but there was no answer. I ran so fast that I didn't watch what I was doing and bumped into two people!

" Hey! We heard screams." Berserker pointed over his shoulder, " Did they get the...that!" he said loudly, noticing the flag.

" Come on, we've gotta get to the finish line before they do!" Amara said, rising to his feet, " Spike, Sunspot, and Multiple Man are keeping Rogue, Siryn, and Mindrider. Come on!" she said, running off. I followed and soon the finish line was in our sight, but there was a slight problem. Jubilee, Colossus, and Iceman were the problem.

" Magma, you take Iceman...I'll take Jubilee and StormCat, you take Colossus." he commanded.

I looked at him in disbelief, " I didn't see that coming...oh, wait, yeah I did." I said with anger radiating from every pore in my body. Berserker and Magma instantly began fighting Iceman and Jubilee, but I couldn't. Not against Colossus. I ran up and kicked him, but he metaled up and it hurt really bad, and he punched me backwards. He ran towards me, but I stopped him telekinetically and tripped him, then held him down so I could get into the air, but I felt a cold, sharp pain hit my shoulder, then I fell to the ground. Colossus automatically dove on top of me.

" This is fun, but I've gotta run." I said, trying to wiggle from under him. It felt kinda good, so I wiggled some more, but soon I felt something pressing against my stomach and looked up at him.

StormCat < Is that your...>

This made him jump off me and I tripped him! While he was down, I sprinted to the finish line with the flag in hand.

After the Danger Room, it seemed as if I had become more popular than when I came in. I walked up to Bobby, but he walked away without saying another word. So I set out on a new mission, to find Scott. I had learned by now that he was always in the garage, so I traveled downstairs and found more than I bargained for. When I came around the corner to the garage, I saw it! I went numb...Scott making out with Logan.

" Oh...that's...oh." I mumbled. They both jumped at the sight of me. At that point, they both tried to explain, but I couldn't hear either of them. All I could do was walk away. I walked for a while before I got to the kitchen and I stood in front of the group table, tears running down my face and Bobby stood. I cried so hard, not feeling anything but sadness.
