DAYS OF FUTURE PAST, Issue #1

[Nuke261]

Kyle's Family's House

While Kyle and Corey fired up the grill and discussed the days discoveries, Lorenzo, Jennifer and Amanda worked in the kitchen. Lorenzo and Jennifer were spooked for a brief moment as an odd alarm sounded. Luckily their reactions were minimal since it was only Amanda's cell phone. It was pretty obvious it was her Mom as she continued to reassure her that she was fine and it was not a problem for her to be at Kyle's house.

She hung up the phone and looked at Lorenzo and Jennifer with wide eyes. "Guess what you guys! I just got off the phone with my mom and she's like all crazy to make sure I stay inside and don't go anywhere. You know why? The cops captured like 6 or 7 mutants and they're shipping them out of town tonight. I guess they're in a big hurry because they got so many and they don't want anything to happen. Isn't that wild? I've gotta go tell Kyle!"




Detention Center

After a long time of coming up with escape plans it seemed that there was going to be no easy way out. It was hard to keep track of time but it seemed like a few hours must have passed. While Sammy tried to convince Gabe to fake being sick, the doors to both rooms sprung open and several guards filed into each room.

They did not seem armed but they had full protective gear on over their blue jump suits. It was odd but their human captors looked less than human with their face shields down, hiding their features. Two guards walked up to each of the kids and put binders on their hands. The binders covered both hands half way up to their elbows. The binders were held together by a metal piece in the middle.

Once that was done, their collar pieces were checked and they were walked out of their rooms. Once in the hallway the two groups came together and were escorted by the entire group of guards.

Eleyna Robertson

Once that was done, their collar pieces were checked and they were walked out of their rooms. Once in the hallway the two groups came together and were escorted by the entire group of guards.

She didn't fight the guards as they fitted her hands with the binders, nor did she speak as they secured the rest of her friends. Instead, Eleyna followed instructions and co-operated without argument, all the while keeping a sharp watch about her for anything they might use to their advantage.

Once in the hallway, she moved indiscreetly to Gabe's side. He looked so miserable, but despite his appearance, his presence truly comforted her. Reassured her. She felt herself blushing. Nice, Eleyna. Real nice. Way to keep a poker face. Even though he had only been a room away, she realized how much she had missed him. Grinning like an idiot, she directed her smile up at him, where she hoped it would be of some use. "Hey!" she whispered quietly.

Andrew stare at the guards when they entered. He never opposate to what they did to him, he just kept his chin up and looked in the eyes the guards. They could treat him as a beast, but they would not take his dignity he thought to himself.

He took a look at Catherine, how she was faring. He couldn't take out the idea that she was here because of him. If he hadn't been curious...

In the corridor, he slips next to her, leaving his place next to Gabe to Eleyna. For a moment, an idea about Eleyna and Gabe flash in his mind, but it fastly dissapear when he look back at Catherine. He tries to smile at her, trying to make her understand that he was there, and she would not be alone.

Gabriel 'Gabe' Adams, HP 2/2

Gabe went along silently with the guards, head bowed as he felt them secure binders on his hands. He brightened up slightly as the two groups met, immediately looked for Eleyna.

Once in the hallway, she moved indiscreetly to Gabe's side. He looked so miserable, but despite his appearance, his presence truly comforted her. Reassured her. She felt herself blushing. Nice, Eleyna. Real nice. Way to keep a poker face. Even though he had only been a room away, she realized how much she had missed him. Grinning like an idiot, she directed her smile up at him, where she hoped it would be of some use. "Hey!" she whispered quietly.

Despite himself, Gabe couldn't help smiling back. He softly whispered in response. "Hey." Gabe just smiled at Eleyna for a few moments, his mood seeming to improve immediately. Then he whispered again, his smile taking on a sheepish, slightly sad quality. "I think this is where I'm supposed to crack a joke to make things seem better, but I can't think of any." Gabe glanced at the other kids as they walked and then back to Eleyna again. "And I have to admit, I haven't exactly come up with a master escape plan yet. Sammy seems to think it's all some sort of game, that we can bust our way out of here like some kind of superheroes. And Andrew..." He trailed off with a shrug and sighed quietly. "Eleyna, just...don't go anywhere, OK? I think you're the only thing keeping me in one piece at the moment." Gabe smiled sadly as he spoke, acknowledging the ineffectuality of his plea in a place where neither Eleyna nor himself had any say in where they were placed or with whom. Then he fell silent again, staying close to Eleyna as they continued on.

Slowly walking the corridors, Eleyna felt very strange. For the life of her, she could not stop smiling. "Don't worry, Gabe. I'm not gonna leave you." They walked in silence for a few moments before she spoke again, "And, you don't need to crack jokes to make things seem better, y'know. Not for me, anyways." Nudging him playfully with her shoulder, she continued quietly, "I feel better just having you here with me."

For the moment, walking toward their fate, Eleyna could not shake the odd feeling that things were not as bad as they seemed.

Kyle Graham


"So we alright with this?" he asks calmly. "Look, no one knows but me, I've not told anyone or will I till you say it's cool, so relax man.." offers his hand. "Now, you want steak or burgers, I think my uncle won't sweat us dipping into the cooler for a beer or two. You look like you could use one."

She hung up the phone and looked at Lorenzo and Jennifer with wide eyes. "Guess what you guys! I just got off the phone with my mom and she's like all crazy to make sure I stay inside and don't go anywhere. You know why? The cops captured like 6 or 7 mutants and they're shipping them out of town tonight. I guess they're in a big hurry because they got so many and they don't want anything to happen. Isn't that wild? I've gotta go tell Kyle!"

"Whoa, that's something," Lorenzo agreed, acting only mildly surprised. "Go let Kyle know, he may have to put the skids on this outing and send us home. Jennifer, I can give you and Corey a ride if you need it."

When Amanda leaves, Lorenzo moved to Jennifer and said quietly, "Guess we better get moving on a prison break plan."

"So we alright with this?" he asks calmly. "Look, no one knows but me, I've not told anyone or will I till you say it's cool, so relax man.." offers his hand. "Now, you want steak or burgers, I think my uncle won't sweat us dipping into the cooler for a beer or two. You look like you could use one."

Corey will hesitantly shake Kyle's hand. How can he be so calm about this? I guess he's been a mutant for awhile so he's used to it. "Uh, gimme a burger." I've never had a beer before. "And sure, I'll take a beer."

He completely ignored my question about Amanda... why would he be so worried about her?

Jennifer Allen

Kyle's Family's House



"Whoa, that's something," Lorenzo agreed, acting only mildly surprised. "Go let Kyle know, he may have to put the skids on this outing and send us home. Jennifer, I can give you and Corey a ride if you need it."

When Amanda leaves, Lorenzo moved to Jennifer and said quietly, "Guess we better get moving on a prison break plan."

Once Amanda has left them alone for a moment Jen starts to breath again.
"Ok, did you hear that number? And now consider all of us. Such a nest of mutants on one strike? They are hunting them for years now, it should be impossible. Why did they never detect some of us before. Something strange is going on here."
She stays rather calm but decides it would be a good time to try why her parents think so high of coffee.
"Maybe someone knows more about this. But I have no clue who."
Despite herself she finds herself wondering where she migh get a gone or something.
We are talking about the police here. We can't exactly fight them free like in some movie. We're just kids.

"Ok, did you hear that number? And now consider all of us. Such a nest of mutants on one strike? They are hunting them for years now, it should be impossible. Why did they never detect some of us before. Something strange is going on here."

"Yeah . . . and I don't understand it any better," Lorenzo offered. "All I know is that right now it's only you, me, Corey and Kyle against the world. Until someone proves otherwise . . . thats the way its got to be."

"Our first order of business should be getting the others out before they're shipped somewhere we can't help them from," Lorenzo continued. From his tone, it seemed that Lorenzo had a plan . . . or at least the beginnings of one. "To understand what we have to work with, we need to learn about how Corey can help."

Lorenzo was careful not to mention either their power and abilities or their plans very specific. He was getting paranoid . . . and guessed that it was a good thing.
