"Good." Kris said, pleased. She faintly realized that a portion of her left arm, which was closest to the fire, felt raw from the unyielding heat.

Hunter looked over at Kris. "Maybe you should move a little ways away form the fire. So you're not getting so much of the heat."

Mazarus walked up to the place he and his sister were staying, he had been gone for a week now on scouting patrols and the like and was ready to be home for a change, if you could call it home. Mazarus had been very meticulous in his path coming back to the hide out, no one had seen him, but he still took the precaution, he did not want to endanger his sister. He opened the door slowly and entered. Putting down his bag and hanging his armour over the back of a chair.
"home." was all that he said.

Hunter looked over at the door as a man entered. "Hey Mazarus welcome home." "Yes welcome home. Hungry?" Hayden asked. We got really lucky tonight.

"Stop fussing Chris, you're annoying me!" Tabby said as she nudged her sleeping brother.
"Where's mama?" He asked, his sleepy eyes opening and then shutting quickly.
"She's up in heaven watching you with Daddy, now go back to sleep." Tabitha patted her brother on the head and held him close as he drifted back to sleep. After a few minutes she sighed and leaned against the cold stone wall. Was this the life her mother and father had paid their own lives for her to live?
A cold wind blew through the room and she shivered. She looked down at Chris and pushed the blanket off herself and covered him with it. Then, she stood up, careful not to wake him (he looked so peaceful sleeping), and made her way over to the fire. She waved to some of the kids and smiled, but she wasn't very well known around the safe house, she and her brother had only arrived a week ago.
She shivered. That week was so far away...had it really happened? Sitting next to fire she basked in its heat and played and replayed memories of her mother and father through her head. They had been such a happy family, living in the Xavier Institute for all those years....
But then Apocalypse rose to power and her mother and father had been called to war. They fought hard, and they were very successful, but in the end most of the Rebels were killed. Apocalpyse took no prisnors...everyone died sooner or later.
But the funny thing was, it hadn't been Apocalypse or his minons that had killed her parents. She wasn't quite sure how it happened, after all it happened last year and she had been only twelve then, but she pestered her Aunt Jubilee to tell her how it happened time and time again. All she had ever said, for the year that she and Chris had spent with her, before she left on a mission to save Xavier and never came back, was that her parents had been killed by the "Death."
The "Death," that annoyed Tabby. What did that mean? She had been so confused, and now no one was left to help her. Everyone that she had called family were gone...except Chris. But he was only ten and she wasn't his mother! How was she suppossed to protect both of them...especailly since her powers had been on the fritz lately. She just couldn't seem to turn intangible anymore, no matter how hard she tried.
She smiled despite herself. Her mother had always called her a little Poltergeist, due to the fact that she could transform into a sort of blue-translucent ghost-person and fly around and move things or possess people. Her Godfather, Professor Xavier, had told her she had the ability to change into mental energy, that it was the side effect of having two powerful telepaths for parents. She had always been proud of her abilities, she had had them ever since she was a little kid. People always said that was unusual for a mutant, but she didn't care.
She sighed. Now they were gone, at least not all of them. Staring into the fire she mentally played with it, making it move in all the directions she wanted it to. She still had her telekinesis, that was for sure, but still, she had never actually practiced using it. Why hadn't she paid more attention in class?!

Theia had led Onyx out of the prison only to find that the guards had set up and were aimed right at them as they exited the building. Theia sighed, "Make way, we only want a way through!" she said not using her powers. She was answered by the c.ocking by guns and lasers pointed at her chest, "Cover your ears," Theia said her eyes narrowing pushing Onyx behind her.
Amelia jumped awake from her dream to hear the tought patterns of her brother, "Zarus your back," she yawned rubbing her eyes, "I had the dream again."
****** In the Neutral Dimestion
Iris was exausted she had spent the last three weeks away from her chamber to help prepare the portals to open up back on Earth. She had worked almost non-stop for most of those three weeks, only wanting to fall asleep in her bed, curled up next to her husband.
But in the back of her mind something bothered her, her children, they had been sent to Earth to help the people who were left, she only hoped that they were alright.

A smile lit up Maarus' face. He was glad to see his sister again. Mazarus had been away longer than he had wanted to be. His father had made him promise to take care of his sister and Mazarus did not want to dissapoint. He was glad to be home though.
"Hello little sister, how are you." Mazarus sat down at the table.

"Same old same old, trying to survive," Amelia said bitterly, "Nothing but going on patrol and keeping track of the droids," she shrugged sitting back in her chair.
"Maz, so nice to see you again, did you bring me any equipment from Apocalypse's forces?" Health asked looking up from her computer hopefully looking at Mazarus with hopeful eyes.

"yeah there are a few tricks in the bag, I dunno, there was some interesting things going on out there this time. Apocolypse is planning something."
Mazarus returned his attention to his sister. "managing to stay out of too much trouble I hope." Raphael got up quietly and got a glass of water. He pulled something out of his pocket, a stone of some sort. He handed it to his sister. "I found something that caught my eye, thought you might like it sis."

Amelia rolled her eyes and threw her hands up into the air, "Really Zarus, you should know by now that stones like that, I don't give a flying flip for," she said her eyes hardening as she looked at him, "I have no time to run around collecting pretty stones, we're in the middle of a war."
Health blushed as Mazarus spoke to her but quickly hid it by digging through the bag, "Jesus, he has a high powered DNA splicer, he has to be planning something," she said removing a small gun from the bag, "The energy alone that runs these things in illlogical. That Bitch Eliza must be working over time to charge these."

"such strong language. Please, the world outside is a terrible place, but because of that we do not need to behave in such a manner." Raphael reached behind his back and pulled out one of Apocolypse's laser pistols.
"I know sis, that is why I brought you this one two."

"I don't need his weapons, I can rely on myself," Amelia growled even deeper, "And quit giving me that teacher/student crap, dad did it to me and it never worked. So it won't work on me. I don't know why you continue to follow his teaching he and mom both left us to fend for ourselves."

"He sent me to take care of you, do you honestly believe they just left us, like the didn't want us any more. It is better for us to be here than there." Mazarus was tired and didn't want to argue. He had been out for far too long this time and wanted to sleep. He rubbed his head, the dark colored stubble felt interesting under his touch, he needed to shave again.
"I am tired sis, can we continue this some other time?"

Kris smiled affectionately at the foxgirl, ignoring the stinging sensation in her arm. "I'm fine. As long as your feeling better, everything's good." She spotted Mazarus. "Hey Zar-Man, welcome back." Lena rolled her eyes at her sister's nickname for him and smiled to him.

"Mazarus, it's been years since we've heard from them, get it through your skull, mum and dad have washed their hands of us, they've moved on and probably have other children and are living a perfect life in some other dimestion," Amelia spat, fire dancing in her eyes in anger, "They don't care about us, they've never cared. Get over the whole pipe dream that they're coming back to 'save,' this place. They's nothing left to save, Apocalypse has killed off anything that has given us hope."

Mazarus turned and looked up at Kris, he smiled and then sighed as his sister remarked back at him.
"not everything sis...nothing can last forever. Apocolypse had to fall some time."

"Yeah, BRO, he's as powerful as ever, I really see him falling," Amelia said rolling her eyes and glaring at Kris, "I have to go patrol," she said darkly before taking out the door for the surface.
"She's a little bitter, you know?" Health said shrugging as she took apart the DNA splicer, "It sometimes happens to everyone."
