DAYS OF FUTURE PAST, Issue #2

[Velmont]

"Calm down Sammy, I hear them both talking. Gabe and Eleyna are alive..."

He stops to speaks as the sounds from outside can be heard. He looks aournd and see some light appearing from the opening doors. He sees Catherine next to him. He remarks a shadow on the floor. He looks back at the doors and see the man. He listen to the man.

"Catherine. It isn't safe to stay here. Come with us, just the time you get out of danger. At that moment, I'll make sure you'll have a safe ride home. No one will harm you without getting over me first, I promise. Once with your family, you will be able to speak to your family and contact the media and make sure the mistake that happen to you doesn't ever happen again. I won't force you, so please, I ask you, to trust me one last time. Come on."

He present his hand, gently, and wait for Catherine reaction.

Eleyna Robertson

A large man stood in the doorway. His features could not be made out due to the light all being behind him. He reached a gloved hand into the truck. "Let's go! We have no time to waste here, we've got to get you kids out of here now!" His voice was deep and commanding. After he spoke, sirens could be heard in the distance. A few shapes could be made out behind him. There looked to be one or two women with him.

"Sammy! We're over here! Gabe's been shot!" She continued to hold Gabe, gently so as not to worsen his condition. The blood she found had been on his arm, but in the darkness, she could not see exactly where, or how bad the wound was. Sammy had just found them when there was a loud grinding sound, and then a brilliant light! At first, Eleyna instinctively shut her eyes to protect against the blinding glare. Then, after several blinks, her eyes began to adjust to the new light. She did not know who the man standing at the door of the truck was, but she definitely recognized some of his friends!

"Jenn! Zo!" Before she could continue, the man before them spoke, with great urgency. Sirens wailed in the background, and she knew they didn't have much time. Eleyna nodded her head at the mysterious figure, conyeing her understanding. "Thanks. We need to get him help," she continued, as calmly as possible - but with great worry in her voice, "He's been shot." Lowering her head, she spoke softly in Gabe's ear, "Gabe, can you stand? We've got to get you out of here!"

Lorenzo Reynolds Hps: 2/2

'Nothing . . . ' Lorenzo thought after not getting anything from the man. 'Crappy mutant power doesn't even work half the time. Gotta figure out how this stuff works.'

"Maybe.. should we drive over and pick them up?"

"That works for me Core," Lorenzo replied. "Let's get this party started."

Lorenzo kicks the truck into gear and rolls up to the group of kids, hat pulled down (ROM mask safely tucked in his jacket pocket). "You guys looking for a lift?" Lorenzo asked with a wide grin and an air of sarcastic non-chalance.

Sammy Donaldson

Sammy was trying not to panic. This was more excitement than he had ever imagined and he could imagine quiet a bit. He shuffled along and softly kicked Eleyna's foot. Leaning down to try and see what was wrong with Gabe his hand slid into a six inch whole in the wall.

After finally reaching Eleyna and Gabe, Sammy could hear Eleyna's sobbing voice. Hang on guys, we'll get out of here....his sentence had been cut short with his hand pushing through the truck wall..."oh crap!" As the blinding light bursted through blinding him., "ohhh, thats bright!"Sammy rubbed his eyes briefly enough to try to help Gabe. Before Sammy could reach down to help Gabe the hatch of the truck open up with large metal warnings of the gears turning.

"Let's go! We have no time to waste here, we've got to get you kids out of here now!"

"WHO?....Guys lets not look a gift horse in the mouth...RUN! Come on Gabe!" Eleyna you get the right arm I'll try and handle the left one. Sammy had tore off Gabes left sleeve in half and tied it to Gabe's arm while applying pressure.

While having Gabe by the arm trying to lift with Eleyna, Sammy didn't know if it was from not eating, or all the stress, but he had become light headed, his arms and hands started to tingle and had slightly developed the shakes. Not to mention his eyes burned from trying to adjust to the emense light.

Valerie Dobson aka Kyle Graham hp 2/2

"Come on guys." Kyle says as she rushes up and helps them out. "We need to get gone and quick, I'm sure someone was monitoring the transport." she glances at the Swede. "Your new friend there says he's got a hideout for us to lie low in." she adds as she motions for Lorenzo and Corey to help out.

Prisoner Transport Truck

Lorenzo pulled up to the overturned truck so that everyone could pile in. Someone said something about taking another truck, he was not sure who. He was flooded with a feelings of panic, surprise, and fear. He was not overcome by them, he simply knew that was what everyone around was feeling. Lorenzo also got a better look at the man who had suddenly appeared to help them out. His thoughts were hidden but his actions were not.

Corey was anxious to see if Sammy was okay, still feeling minor guilt for leaving him at the mall. It didn't matter that Sammy told him to, he just didn't feel good about it.

The Swede reached in and helped Eleyna out. He passed her back to the others. Eleyna saw Jennifer Allen and Some women who looked like she was a Federal Agent. She seemed to be part of the crowd but, it was still hard to let herself get relaxed. She also saw Lorenzo and Corey in Sammy's truck.

Sammy helped move Gabe to the open door, behind Eleyna. While he guided him, both boys felt an odd sensation. Gabe felt it in his wounded arm and Sammy felt it in his hands. It was almost like a numb coldness, except it felt tingly, like a part of the body has just become awake. They both looked at each other as they noticed it.

Andrew stood waiting for some sign from Catherine. She finally looked in his direction to see what all was going on. Without warning, she leapt at him, knocking him to the ground. She sat on top of him, beating her fists into his chest. She had tears streaming down her face. "No! You won't do this to me! You won't leave me! You won't escape! You won't get away from me!"

Corey and Lorenzo could both see that the Police cars had gotten much closer.

Lorenzo Reynolds HP 2/2

Lorenzo pulled up to the overturned truck so that everyone could pile in. Someone said something about taking another truck, he was not sure who.

"Someone say something about another truck?" Lorenzo asked. He looked at the approaching police cars, and met Corey's eyes. " . . . cause it doesn't look like we have much time, let's go!"

Corey Vinyard

Sammy! He's really ok. Corey can't help grinning beneath his mask. Keep it together, first we have to get out of here. Corey hops out of the truck to make more room for the others. Let them go first. I could get out of here pretty easily on my own. I think...

Then his thoughts are stalled by the spectacle of Catherine attacking Andrew. What the hell?

Eleyna Robertson

Eleyna let herself be carried into the truck. Concern - about Gabe, about the others - was the main thing occupying her mind, but she was so exhausted, she didn't know if she'd even be able to help. She knew it would be better to let Sammy and their strange benefactor help him into the truck. Once in the truck, Eleyna found herself surrounded by more than a few familiar faces, and one strange one. "Zo! Jenn? Corey? What are you guys all doing here? You guys are mutants too?" She cautiously eyed the federal agent, "Who's she?"

Momentarily distracted by her schoolmates, her attention was turned back to Gabe once she saw him being helped into the truck. Eleyna did her best to guide him inside, and pulled him close to her. She wrapped her arms around him and reassured him, "You're gonna be okay, alright?"

Gabriel 'Gabe' Adams, HP 2/2

Momentarily distracted by her schoolmates, her attention was turned back to Gabe once she saw him being helped into the truck. Eleyna did her best to guide him inside, and pulled him close to her. She wrapped her arms around him and reassured him, "You're gonna be okay, alright?"

Gabe looked up, blinking and looking a little dazed. He felt light-headed, but mustered a weak smile for Eleyna. "It's going to be fine. I'll be OK." Gabe's pale and tired appearance belied his words somewhat, but he seemed sincere. He rested his head on Eleyna's shoulder and spoke again. "But next time we spend time together, I'd really prefer it to be at a theme park or something." Gabe relaxed then, the sudden loosening of his muscles showing he'd been incredible tense. He lent on Eleyna and closed his eyes, drifting into a state of semi-consciousness where the pain in his arm didn't hurt so much. Gabe knew he should be more curious about what was going on, where they were being taken, who had rescued them..but for the moment, he couldn't bring himself to care all that much. Right now, he just wanted to rest.
