DAYS OF FUTURE PAST, Issue #1

Kyle Graham


Kyle nods curtly and leads the way downstairs leaving the girls to themselves as he hands the portable phone to Lorenzo. "Want some Ice Tea?" he calls upstairs, eager to find something to keep from thinking what was perculating in his head. Lorenzo was a good guy and a freind, he was just as entitled to flirt with Jennifer as he.. and much more suitable for such a classy girl.

In the few moments she isn't thinking about the hole mutant situation Jen looks after Kyle, trying to decide what his strange demeanor could mean.
It isn't hard to guess but in the end she pushes it to the back of her mind.
He's fun but he's still just a goofball. Something I can worry about later. If I should do it at all.

Whitmyer Shopping Village

Corey walked through the mall and made his way to the food court. He knew there were phones there and he could probably stop to wash his face in the bathroom. The mall was starting to get a little busier now that the commotion outside had died down. Corey kept his head down as he entered the food court.

He made his way through the hall and dialed the phone. He had started to watch the people to see if anyone was watching him but, they seemed content to go on with their shopping and paid him little attention. After a few rings he heard the other end of the phone pick up.


Kyle's Family's House

Amanda did not seem shy as she began chatting with Jennifer. She was curious about Lorenzo but asked more about Kyle and what he had been up to the last 2 years.

Lorenzo and Kyle walked downstairs and into the living room. As soon as they turned the tv on they saw the emergency warning flashing across the bottom of the screen. As they read how they should stay inside for their safety and that the emergency services were taking care of all related events, the phone suddenly rang.



Detention Center

The tests seemed to take hours.
Each of them had nodded off to sleep at some point.
The temperature never seemed to get warmer the entire time.

Finally the tests were over. The equipment was unhooked and taken away. Eleyna, Catherine, Gabe and Andrew were each unstrapped from their beds. All of the technicians and medical staff left. They were reminded about the jump suits left for them on the beds, which were left in the rooms. The jump suits were a light blue color with grey padding down the side of the arms and legs.

After about an hour the window to the side of the room lightened. It went from solid black to clear in a few moments time. Gabe and Andrew were able to see Eleyna and Catherine, just as the girls were able to see them. They could also hear into the other room now. After a short amount of time, a guard brought two trays of food into each room. The food did not look bad, similar to what might be found at a well stocked cafeteria.

A few minutes after that the door to the boys room opened and two guards carried in a body wearing a jump suit the same as theirs. The body was placed on one of the hospital beds and the guards left. The body on the bed groaned slightly and as it turned, Gabe and Andrew could see that it was Sammy Donaldson.

Andrew walks to the plates of food and pick one. He sit down and look at the food, but it seems there is no way that he could eat that. He stares at his food, fearing to meet the eyes of Catherine. When he heard the door open, he saw Sammy that was dragged into the room. He seems indifferent to Sammy condition. Andrew seems absorbed in his thought. After a moment, he push his plate away and walk to his bed. Fixing the ceiling, he say:

"I'm sorry Catherine. I'll fix all this. Just give me some time."

Without much conversation from Catherine, the overwhelming silence from the doctors began to overpower Eleyna. She shut her eyes, to keep the doctors and technicians as far away as possible. She didn't remember falling asleep, but opening her eyes again, she realized that she was alone. Well, it was just her and Catherine anyways, but for all intents and purposes she was alone. Rubbing her eyes, she allowed for her vision to focus. Groggy, she slipped off the table and walked over to where the jump suit lay folded in the room. Despite the fact that she had just been thoroughly examined, she still felt self-conscious about being naked in the cold room. Enough so that she changed into the jumpsuit facing a wall, as far out of sight of the window as possible.

The jumpsuit felt a bit warmer, but there wasn't much to keep the cold at bay. Eleyna paced the perimeter of the holding cell, carefully taking in the details. To keep her blood flowing for sure, but also because as soon as she sat still, Eleyna would go crazy. And Catherine didn't look like she was going to do much to help with that. She longed for Gabe again. And for a second time that day, she found him. The window on the wall changed... Eleyna had though it to be some kind of observation window with medical and security personnel watching them. But, as the glass became transparent, she realized that Gabe was in the cell next to hers. And not only Gabe, but Andrew Ward(?) as well! What the hell?!?

"Gabe!" She wasn't sure if they would be able to speak to one another through the glass... She called out to him, to get his attention. Oh god, please let him hear me! Please! I need him, oh please let me be able to talk to him...

"Great." Kyle grumbles as he sees the warning on the screen and pause in his assembly of a sandwhich for himself. "Just what we needed..they could go from door to door, I've heard they've done it before."

Starts at the ringing of the phone and picks it up, "Hello, Cain's Mortuary, you stab 'em we slab 'em." He says, more out of perverse habit than miling for a joke.

In his addled state of mind, the joke went right over Corey's head. "Sorry, wrong n... wait, Kyle?" He said the last in an oddly suprised tone of voice.

Gabriel 'Gabe' Adams, HP 2/2

After about an hour the window to the side of the room lightened. It went from solid black to clear in a few moments time. Gabe and Andrew were able to see Eleyna and Catherine, just as the girls were able to see them. They could also hear into the other room now.

Gabe mechanically changed into the jumpsuit, not looking at Andrew as he did so. 'What's going on here? Andrews not the mutant they were talking about? Then there's *another* one out there? And Andrew keeps denying he's a mutant..but they couldn't have made a mistake with all their equipment. Could they?' As the glass changed, Gabe's demeanour went from numb to energised, and he moved to the window, even as Eleyna spoke.

"Gabe!" She wasn't sure if they would be able to speak to one another through the glass... She called out to him, to get his attention. Oh god, please let him hear me! Please! I need him, oh please let me be able to talk to him...

Her voice..it seemed so long since he'd last heard it, that a huge amount of time had passed since then. He felt something catch in his throat for a moment at her familiar tones, worried but definitely Eleyna. Relief flooded Gabe.

"Eleyna! God, are you ok? Have...did..." Gabe stopped a moment trying to frame his thoughts more coherently. "Eleyna...I can't tell you how happy I am to see you." Gabe lent his arm on the window and then his forehead on his arm, never taking his eyes off Eleyna. "I...God I didn't know what they were going to do..or what was..I'm so glad you're alright."

There was someone else in the room with Eleyna, but Gabe didn't notice her until Andrew spoke. Wh..Catherine? As in cheerleader Catherine? She's a mutant?!'

A few minutes after that the door to the boys room opened and two guards carried in a body wearing a jump suit the same as theirs. The body was placed on one of the hospital beds and the guards left. The body on the bed groaned slightly and as it turned, Gabe and Andrew could see that it was Sammy Donaldson.

Gabe looked away from Eleyna as the other kid was brought in. He glanced at Eleyna again and tried to give a small smile before he headed over to the bed, a look of concern on his face. "Hey, uh..Sammy, right? Are..you ok?" Gabe shot a frowning glance at Andrew for a moment before he turned back to seeing how Sammy was doing. 'Should have known. Why would Andrew Ward care how anyone else is getting on? Self-absorbed arrogant...just figures, I guess.' Gabe kept glancing over at the window as he checked on Sammy, almost as if to reassure himself Eleyna was still there and it hadn't all been some elaborate ruse. His face was now an odd mixture of relief and concern as he divided his attention.

"Yeah, wazup Corey?" He says, waving to Lorenzo while mouthing 'Corey.. sounds paniced.'

She grinned, radiant, her smile touching her eyes. She replied to him, "Yeah, I-I'm okay. I'm alright. They didn't... they just did some tests and, and they left. God, I'm so glad to see you too. I didn't know what was happening and... I'm just glad to see you're alright. When you fought them... I just... I didn't want them to hurt you."

Looking into his eyes, she noticed as Gabe realized Catherine was sitting behind her. "Yeah, Catherine's in here. She may as well not be, for all the talking she's doing. I see you got a friend too." Quickly looking up at Andrew Ward, motioning to him with her eyes. "Gabe, what's going on?"

Almost in reply to this, the door in the other cell opened and another kid was wheeled in on a hospital bed. She nodded at Gabe as he looked to her, reassuring him that she was alright, that he needn't worry about her. With a groan, the kid turned on his hospital bed, and Eleyna was shocked yet again that day. Hey, I know him, too! It's that... the kid that parks near me. He's a freshman... Sammy, I think.

"Gabe, is he... is Sammy okay?"
