Chapter Twenty-Four

Author's Note:

Hello,

I hope you like the little flashback from the last chapter. I figured it would be nice if Lauren is being shown what it means to her to be with her brother.

I still need some ideas for powers for Grace Turner. Cause I'm not sure what to really do with her in a training scene or a fight scene.

In your guys personal opinion do you think that Caitlin and Reed should turn their backs on the Mutantunderground and join their own kind and fight with the humans.

Also please don't be afraid to pitch ideas for up coming chapters. I can incorporate everyone's ideas into a chapter or two.

I still have a little bit of writers block, but I think I'm good for a while until something comes up.

~enjoy~

Reeva's POV

The Inner Circle is growing. This means great things for us. Twist and Andrew are making tremendous progress in their time of training. This is proving to be in our favor, soon the humans will be gone and mutants will live free and not be in fear anymore.

Learning of Lauren being taken to the leader of the morlocks the only chance of reminding Lauren where she belongs, I had Esme plant flashback of her and Andrew working together and seeing each other again after being apart from each other for so long. I know my planned work because Lauren came back today on her own with no one with her. I'm pleased with Lauren decision.

"You wanted to see me Reeva?" Lauren asks walking into the meeting room where I'm sitting and waiting.

"Yes, please have a seat Lauren."

Lauren sits down on the couch across from me, she seemed a little nervous, but that's understandable as she did just leave a group that she knows the location to.

"So Lauren, I have a few questions for you. Where is the hideout where these morlocks hide at?"

"They live in the sewers. A person I was friends with at the underground is a spy for the morlocks. It seems to be that she has been helping them for a while now." Lauren explains.

"And who is this person?"

"Clarice Fong, but you might know her as Blink." Lauren comments.

"Interesting, Lauren I have a mission for you, Andrew, and Twist... this is what I need you three to do."

Reed's POV

I went to a doctor to see if there was chance to stop my powers from becoming stronger and effective. In my luck the Purifiers made this andiote for mutants who want to be human again can get the antidote injected into them and become fully human again.

For the sake of Caitlin and our family, I let the Purifiers inject the antidote into me.

I feel normal again, I just wish Lauren and Andy would come home and do this as well. I know my children well enough that they don't like being a mutant and want to be normal again.

Cait sadly had a miscarriage and the child we were happy to bring into this life didn't make it. I honestly understand that the world us humans live in doesn't really have enough room for another possible mutant to come into the world.

"Everyone I want you to welcome two new members of our group Reed and Caitlin Strucker. Reed Caitlin would you two like to come up here and share your stories about how you know about mutants?" A man asks Cait and I.

Cait and I walk up to the podium in front of the room.

"Hello, I'm Caitlin and this is my husband Reed. We have two children a boy and girl. Three and a half years ago we got into an accident, we believe it was a miracle that we survived the crash, it turns out that our daughter Lauren powers manifested and saved our lives. Six months ago our son Andy found out he was also a mutant. We thought oh this won't affect us, but turns out it did. Six months ago our son Andy left us to join the Hellfireclub, Reed, our daughter Lauren, and I had been trying to find Andy and bring him home. A couple weeks ago Lauren she went to go join Andy in helping the hellfireclub and prove that mutants deserve to have peace, freedom, and a place to call home." Cait explains.

On the screen next to the podium a slide show of our family played.

"Together we can bring our children home and then turn them back into humans like me and Cait here. I know it sounds like a lot just for us to save two mutants that are trying to destroy humans, but we believe that if we can save them, then we can stop the Hellfireclub, the Mutantunderground, and the Morlocks for good."


Cait and I walk back to our seats. After everyone clapped for us.

"Thank you Caitlin and Reed. This is proving to all of us that even our own children can return to a normal life if we save them from the disease that makes them a mutant. Is there anyone else here who would like to share a story about their child or children being a mutant?" The man asks.

"I would." I turn around to see Jace Turner standing up from his seat.

"Ah, yes Jace please come up and share your story." The man smiled taking a seat in the audience while Jace went up to the podium.

"A week ago, I found out something tremendously surprising. For a long time I thought my daughter Grace Elizabeth Turner was dead from the 7/15 attack. One day I was home with my wife Paula and there was a knock the door, a adult lady and a teenage girl that looked like my daughter. It has turned out that this was my daughter Grace, she survived the 7/15 attack because her mutant abilities saved her and this woman that was with Grace at my door was also a survivor of the 7/15 attack. This woman name is Reeva Payge. Reeva trained my little girl as a mutant for so long my daughter said she would never come home and would hurt Paula and I if she has too in this war." Jace explains.

Clarice's POV

I still can't believe I'm doing this. I'm helping a mutant group that I don't even belong to and yet I'm helping them go take down the hellfireclub with no help from John or Marcos.

"Morning Blink, today will be a good day for mutants all around the world. I'm sure Thunderbird will be proud of you for doing this." Erg smiled.

"Let's do this, I'm sure that the sooner this is over with the sooner I can go help back at the underground."

Opening a portal to the surface. Erg and some morlocks go through the portal.
