GOOD vs. EVIL 17
Next morning
8:30 am
Adam and Charles were to stay in the helix, away from the battle since they weren’t really fighters. Shal, and Logan, along with Sabre tooth were to wait and signal every one when Merrick and Reign were coming, then join in with the fight. Storm, Brennan, Scott, Emma, and Jesse were all to keep Merrick busy while Reign was being reacquainted with her dad. Eric team were there to make their number of fighters larger, also to help fight Merrick and maybe overwhelm him.
The place picked where the fight would kick off, was about 100 miles away from any other human life. Only animals littered about the place, and still, it was almost empty.
It was like countryside, but they made a point of keeping away from the forest, and use it only as a last resort.
Logan pulled Brennan to the side and when Shalimar kept walking with Jesse and Emma, he turned back to Brennan.
“ Are you sure your ready to go up against him?”
Brennan looked down, and then looked towards Mutant x that were still walking away. “ I need to face him Logan. Like you said, if I don’t face it, I’ll be forever running from him”. Logan nodded and Brennan ran to catch back up with Mutant x, while Logan looked on, really wondering if he was ready.
Eric came out of no where, “ Well Wolverine, we shall just have to wait and see. I believe he was the young fellow who was with Reign in Genomex, was he not”.
Logan turned and gave Eric hard eyes, “ Well what if he was…why do you wanna know”. Eric smiled, “ owe, just curious…”. Logan walked up to him, not bothered Mystique was with him, “ well if any thing happens to him, or any one of his friends, or mine. I’ll hold you responsible, alright bub”.
Eric’s smile still remained on his face, “ Why wolverine, why ever would you think that. No I have no need to cause trouble here, not when some thing this important is on the line”.
It was now 8:50 am and Emma was keeping her eyes on Brennan closely. He was nervous, and Shalimar was keeping close by him to help him keep cool. Jesse nodded to Brennan, giving him some faith he could do it. Brennan hated the feeling that every one was looking out for him…but he also valued it. He never wanted to live the way he used to…but he didn’t want to fear the past any more either. Today, those things will not matter when they all take down Merrick.
There was the growing thought of what Merrick would do if they couldn’t take him down, but suddenly, that wasn’t so scary any more. He had the team behind him, new friends as well, and even though Merrick was trying to take that away from him…he would never be able to take his memory of them away.
Brennan stood up off the piece of wood he’d been leaning on and asked what was playing on his mind. “Charles…how are we going to call them here?”.
And he received his answer when Charles stared straight at him, sighing he thought to him self…* I should have known*.
“ Brennan, the connection you have with Reign should be enough to give her your position. She’ll come to you and Merrick will follow. Eric will direct her attention and we’ll all deal with Merrick when he comes” Brennan nodded, “ but how is the connection going to work. I can’t suddenly get it to work…”
Charles smiled, “ if you’ll allow me to enter your mind, I’ll give the connection a…slight tug. She’ll feel it and come. Trust me…if she misses you so much, she will be here in a few minutes if not seconds”.
Brennan nodded but Shalimar gave him a quick look, eyes that almost asked what he meant. Shal came and stood next to him, already she could hear his heart beat increasing as the excitement and nervousness got to him.
He looked at her from the side and she gave him and encouraging smile. He smiled back and gave her hand a tight squeeze.
Adam asked Shal to go with Logan and Sabre tooth while Charles got to work. She nodded and trotted off after her them.
Brennan sighed long, before leaning down to Charles height. Charles nodded at him, “are you ready” Brennan after a hesitant glance at Jess, and Emma, nodded back.
Charles smiled and added a quick note to Brennan before he started, “ It’ll all work out…just have faith”.
Placing each hand to each of Brennan’s temples, Charles entered his mind. It was silent and seemed untouched. He searched for the connection and with a slight push, gave the connection a slight tingle.
Brennan felt nothing at first, then came the buzz off the connection. He shivered at the feeling, it reminded him of what was coming and again, his heart started to beat hard.
Charles lowered his hands and Brennan stood back up to his full height. Images were threatening to return, but he ignored them and went to where Jesse and Emma were waiting.
Charles and Adam both went to the helix and boarded, seconds later the cloak activated making the Helix disappear from all.
Brennan stood near Emma and Jesse, trying to sway away the images that tried to constantly come back. He needed to stay focused on what needed to be done.
Emma rubbed his arm, “ You ok”. He nodded, but some home, maybe it was Emma’s touch or the way she gave courage, but the images settled and kept at a safe distance.
The connection was jumping now, buzzing in him and he started to search the skies to see if she was flying towards them. He knew for certain she was coming…but couldn’t tell which way she was coming.
He looked round but couldn’t see her. About 20 seconds later, Shal, Logan and sabre tooth all started to look around, and that was signal enough for him. She was so close now, and it was Shalimar who spotted her approach.
“ Guys, up there”. She was flying towards them, her eyes fixed on Brennan.
She landed, almost looking like she hadn’t even seen the other, and started to walk fast toward Brennan.
Brennan saw the same black eyes that had looked at him the other day, when him and Shalimar had both been captured, and the feeling of betrayal kicked in.
Before any thing between them could kick off, Eric needed to step in.
Reigns eyes, the blackness overwhelming her eyes, had her eyes set on Brennan. Thoughts of them when they were younger flew through her mind, but a voice that repeatedly talked drowned out the images.
*You must get him back…you must get him back for the master*.
Just when she was 10 feet from Brennan, some one’s voice, she hadn’t heard in a long time, made her forget every thing, and then…only the anger was left.
Brennan saw her coming, but waited. He didn’t want to pick a fight with her, but Merrick, he did. She suddenly froze when Eric called her name and the same thought crossed his mind as it did hers. * He was the one who put her in Genomex…because of her anger, her rage. Her short temper was too much and she was sent some where were he thought she could be fixed*.
Brennan felt anger towards Eric, but he needed to save his energy for Merrick. He had no doubt he’d feel scared when Merrick came again, but this time, he had some faith they all get through, together.
Then the dull roar from the skies coming from the direction reign had come from, range out through the countryside. Ever one looked up, and slowly, saw a black figure flying their way.
Logan looked back at Brennan, and saw Brennan looked directly at him the same time. This time though, Logan didn’t see fear, but anger. The anger he’d almost expected to see the other day, when he found him in the dojo. That anger, Logan had felt during the vision, and it had slightly…scared him.
To be a child, and be put in a position like that…Logan wasn’t surprised Brennan also had a quick temper. Not as bad as Reign’s…but still bad.
The figure landed 10 feet from where Shal, Logan and Sabre tooth were all standing. He smiled again and this time saw the fighting spirit in all their eyes.
He looked around and finally saw Brennan, but still, even his eyes held a burning blaze of anger that no matter how hard he tried at Genomex, could not control it…and suddenly, he felt weary of the situation he’d ran head first into.
But he continued to smile, enjoying the look of determination in their eyes. It just made it all that better when he crushed all their hopes.
Hey guys, the next chapter will most likely end it, or 19 should.
Just to tell you, Merrick is my very own character, no one else’s.
Please give some reply to this.
