who Monty & Kit & Bitch .. I mean Banshee!
what He escaped to go buy Horton Hears a Who, and bumps in to someone. :[
when Friday afternoon.
where Downtown, he is being all mysterious~*~
rating PG? Um. Some language.
status Complete.

Sirens! Police cars! Ambulances! They were after him, and he was in deep shit as he made his way down the street, a little jaunt in his step, hood up above his head to give him some sense of anomonity, because he didn't want to get busted and shoved back in to foster care. Worst off, he was a mutant, it would be mutant foster care, with people trying to experiment on him or whatever else Erian had filled his head with. Horror stories! Nothing but horror stories.

Monty was good at stories, much like the one playing in his mind just then because he figured he was being followed, the DVD he'd taken from the store tucked neatly in his pocket and okay, it was pety crime but he had to see this movie. It was a Dr. Suess masterpiece! His delusions seemed to be true as he turned the corner and waited, only to find that no one was following him, no alarms, no sirens, and he was just Monty, Prince Powerful the Great of the Sisterhood. With the thought of the team's name, he snickered a little because he had begun to call Sam his 'sister', and that didn't really end well and okay! He was the bratty, youngest member of the team, and he lived up to it well. He saw to it.

Still a little bummed about not being sent on the last mission, he'd had a costume made and everything, he managed to escape long enough to find what he wanted and get some air from the bitch that screamed and that freakin' annoying guy who touched people in all the wrong ways. Not dirty! Just painful. He didn't want Vagrant's touch on him, he didn't want the man to see in to his past, to see his parents, the truth behind who he was. All that nonsense.

Turning a corner, he was about ready to go back home until his forehead had connected with another living being. "Oh crap!" voice loud as he looked up, the tips and various strands of his hair the same violet that his eyes quickly took on, it was a defense mechanism. He was caught, after all, and he was about to punch someone in to the ground.

Kit had just dropped off another computer at Willy's shop and was 175 dollars richer than he had been. Score. With his wallet tucked in his back pocket the young man had wrapped his coat around his thin frame and headed back outside. Really he didn't want to return to the institute for the rest of his classes so, he decided he'd go for a walk, keep on the down low for a few hours.

With that in mind he put in his iPod ear buds and began walking down the street, hands in his pockets, looking up at the sky without a care in the world.

Until he knocked heads with something. Yelping in surprise he stumbled backwards, startled as he fell back against a mailbox...which he then phased through. In the end he landed on his ass on the ground on the other side of the mailbox, still able to see the other young man. Taking out his ear buds he just stared for a moment, wondering what his next move should be.

"YOU ARE GOING TO BE IN SO MUCH TROUBLE." Who... would you least expect to see outside, and who is the last possible person on Earth you wanted crashing your day out?

Why, Banshee of course.
The crazed female was always on watch. She flew around, she walked around, she set her ears up so she could eavesdrop on any of the members of the Sisterhood. When she saw that Monty was leaving? Well, she just had to follow him. Discreetly, of course. She hadn't been found. And he had stolen! Oh, what a dirty little kid. Of course it wasn't Banshee's job to punish, but she couldn't help herself. It was just too much fun.

But back to the present. Montgomery had decided to be a moron, steal something, run, knock into someone, who also happened to be a mutant, who phased through the mailbox he was about to smash into, and Banshee couldn't be happier. "You... are the most annoying person on the planet." Said to Montgomery, of course. She didn't know the cute little phaser thing guy person. He wasn't annoying just yet. "You, on the ground. You alright?"

WHOA.
PAUSE.
Did Banshee just ask a nice question?
Why yes, yes she did.

Not that she cared, of course. "You, Monty, should not steal. That was stupid, and... oh if we're lucky, that keeps you out of what's coming up." Duh she wasn't stupid enough to reveal plans in front of a mutant stranger, but Monty would know what she was talking about. "No field trips for you, young man." Like she was a teacher and he was attending her school.

Really, though. Banshee just wanted to mess with him. Cause him to get all upset and frustrated and feel picked on. It was just how she got her kicks.

Monty's eyes immediately went wide the moment the man just happened to go through the mailbox .. or the mailbox went through him? He really was not sure what the heck just happened but the obviously, glaring omition was that the other boy was a mutant just like him .. or a ghost. Eek! The violet of his mutation soon faded, not wanting to be discovered just yet by some unknown fellow freak. "Uh, sorry about tha-" then he was cut off by the most. annoying. voice. ever. "-oh crap!" Turning his head just enough, he noticed the red hair first, the fire atop a head that seemed to suit the woman just fine, something about a cliche and redheads being fiery. Monty was in trouble, and he knew it.

He was also very confused because she was being nice to the ghost-boy and that was just weird. Why didn't he ever get to see that side? He was much cuter, funner, and stronger than the phaser! And still everybody hated him.

Mind already trying to think up the possibilities, one was talking his way out of this and that would just cause more damage, the other was running. "What!" He said, eyes wide and pleading, "You can't, it's just a movie, it's not - you guys did so much worse a few days ago." He was already taking a few steps backwards, deciding a nice mixture of the two, sure the girl could fly but he could run, and punch through stuff. "You can't tell me stealing is bad when.." eyes wide, not wanting to give away everything -- the secret Sisterhood handshake, the everything they are, "you know!" Ugh.

He decided this was so freaking not worth it, his backward steps a little faster, eyes on the brunette boy and hoping he was smart enough to not mess with the redhead.

Unexpected. That is what the events coming into play were right at that moment to Kit: Unexpected. When he had decided to go for a walk he hadn't expected to run into another young man, or fall backward and phase through a mailbox right in front of him, or for the pair to be joined by a rather frightening seemingly crazed woman that worried him - for good reasons! He had a feeling the inquiry to his well being was just a formality and thus didn't answer, simply climbing to his feet and watching the two.

Obviously they knew each other and something about them put Kit on edge. Especially since they hadn't freaked out about him phasing through the mailbox. So either they were mutants themselves, or mutant supporters and his common sense brought him to the point that they were not mutant supporters and probably mutants.

Mutants he didn't know. That weren't part of Xavier's team, who were part of another team...oh his heart sank a bit more and he felt himself taking a few fearful steps backward. Could his luck be so bad that he'd run into two members of the Sisterhood? Or some other organization, perhaps. Another, unfriendly organization if stealing and 'doing worse a few days ago' were any indication.

So now he was just taking slow, measured steps backwards to try and not catch their attention while still distancing himself from them.

Oh, so they were going to make this fun, were they? An evil, horrid, yet strangely beautiful smile crept slowly onto the redhead's face as she put two slender hands on her hips, whose bones stuck out like she were some underfed model. Which was true, minus the model part. She turned in the direction of Monty, first, feeling he was going to be much more annoying than the phaser boy, and addressed him in an extremely cold, but vaguely amused tone.

"Yes, well, what we did was for a purpose. You are stealing a movie because you are a bored, annoying little kid who shouldn't even be part of our little happy family." Happy family my ass. Even Monty was liked more than Banshee. But, you know, who on Earth wasn't liked more than Banshee? She'd be happy to meet someone less popular than her.

But now her attention was on the fact that the phaser-boy seemed to realize who they were and Monty seemed to realize Banshee was crazy and looking for a fight and both of them were moving in opposite directions of her trying to run away. She rolled her eyes, not moving her ground at all expect to stare incredulously at each of them for a moment. "I mean, honestly, you think running is going to actually lead to your escape? That... is the dumbest idea ever." They both needed to get back in to training or something. Seriously.

She cracked her neck and before the two even bothered to get into a full sized run, she screamed. Twice. Two very high pitched screams, going unheard by any human or mutant without supersonic hearing, and were thrown as targets to two individuals. The first one, was thrown to Kit, which made him have the urge to vomit. Unless he had a stomach made of steel, he was going to throw up all over the sidewalk right then and there. While, Monty, on the other hand, was going to get one that made him incredibly disoriented, dizzy, and basically stop him in his tracks from actually running.

"Now, boys. Do we want to try that again?"

Oh crap, crap, crap. Crap. Actually, if any chance was the one for Monty to use the real word, it was now -- SHIT.

Luckily, the phaser-guy seemed to have caught on and was slowly making his way backwards, and it certainly was a smarter move for him to move, or maybe he was just copying, reading the fear on Monty's face because he knew this bitch was a lot psycho. A lot. He didn't even know the proper word for the level of psycho she was, but he was pretty sure Rosemary's baby was standing in front of them, taunting them. "Escape..?" Playing it off, "Why would I need to escape -- there's no.. no, reason to run. We're teammates." Apparently not, because a moment later the world was spinning and he was clutching on to the nearby mailbox with all his average, Montgomery Hayes strength. The moment it took for it to pass was just enough for his mental self defense to kick in, and his hair once again went a vibrant violet, eyes matching in their glow, and he was getting a little annoyed.

Hands dug in to the mailbox, fingers working through the steel as if they were nothing by playdoh until he had a good enough grip and within a second he was tossing the mailbox towards the woman, while yelling the standard "Shut up!" World still spinning, he had to look the moment he heard a collision, narrowing his eyes further to realize that he'd missed entirely, maybe gone for the phased-boy and ended up smashing through a window and hitting a wall with a satisfying crunch.

"Look!" He growled, "Now not only have I stolen, but I've destroyed government property." He wasn't so scared anymore, standing as tall as his young frame could as he stared at the redhead. He just hoped to god that his level of invulernabilty covered his ears as well, it's never been tested because normally Banshee was less of a bitch. Now she seemed in full form.

In full.. mailbox.. dodging form.

Suddenly overcome with the urge to vomit the young man dropped to his knees and dry heaved, only throwing up what little liquid he'd had that morning. He wasn't a big breakfast eater. Wiping his mouth he pulled a mint out of his pocket and popped it into his mouth to try and rid it of the taste of vomit. Ugh. That had not been pleasant. Of course he saw the mailbox coming at him mere moments later and yelped in surprise, making sure he was well out of the way by dodging to the side and phasing through a pole so he was now close to the curb where he landed on his knees.

Of course now he was trying to assess the situation. The other two seemed more interested in each other than him and there was a car right next to him. He could easily phase in, hotwire it and get it going. However the question really was: would he have enough time and what would happen if the crazy redhead hit the car with a sonic blast? Really he was finding himself in some deep shit and really, really wished Ro was there. Or Xavier, or someone who could save him because really it didn't look like he could save himself.

He remained silent, even though all he wanted to do was run and just remained on his hands and knees on the ground. The boy was ready to bolt up and run if he really needed to, just as a last ditch attempt to get away. Why hadn't the police been alerted? He swore he heard sirens in the distance but wondered if they were really coming for him or heading to some other destination. Everyone around them seemed much more keen to ignore instead of gawk, quickly scurrying away lest they get caught up in the mutant battle.

Hell, if he were in their position he'd do the same.

Banshee got off on this kind of thing. It was fun for her, it made her nicer in the end. When she couldn't use her abilities to destroy things or hurt people, it made her cranky. Like not getting enough sleep. She watched as Kit fell to his knees and proceeded to vomit up whatever he had not eaten that morning, and in Monty's dizzy state he attempted to throw things at her. He was all charged up now, too, his invulnerability probably starting which meant she probably couldn't hurt him, just defend herself.

Kit on the other hand. Not so invulnerable. She watched the two as they looked at her, and then her attention returned to Monty who was now yelling at her that he'd broken Government property and she let out a very amused, maniacal laugh. "Oh well I didn't ask you to throw Government property at me, Monty. That was all on you, so, not my problem." She walked over to him now, taking hold of his wrist and looked him very deeply in the eyes. "You do not want to mess with me like this. I don't appreciate things being thrown at me and you will be in a world of trouble if one more object is tossed in my direction." She let go of his wrist, walking over to Kit now.

"And you. Boy. Whose name I don't know and don't care to know. You would be wise to listen to my every word because I will have no regrets killing you right here and now. I think it might even be fun if I did. Not for you of course, but I'd enjoy it a whole lot." She waited for him to start giving her his full attention before she went on any further.

It didn't even cross her mind that she might get in trouble herself for this kind of behavior.

The tiny, little, almost insignificant hand around his wrist made him want to laugh, it was like a spiderweb's touch on him as the strength continued to play through his system, but the venom coated words that were directed towards him as he finally stared forward in to the fucking crazy eyes was enough to make him want to throw up his Lucky Charms just then of fear. After all, he was new to this, just a kid, fell in with the crowd that took him and now here he was, face to face with the Queen Bitch of Life and he wanted to punch her face off. But then he'd have to deal with Erian, not so much the others, they'd probably love him afterwards for taking down the pest.

Then she was gone, going over to Kit and probably doing the same thing to him, showing him whose boss, the baddest bitch on the planet, and she apparently had no idea that she had left her defenses open. He didn't really care about Kit, sure he was cute and could phase, sure, but he wasn't in the circle of the sisters, and that name still made him laugh. He should have heeded the woman's warning, not to throw things at her, and then a smile came over his face, the violet glow of his eyes and hair giving it maybe a little bit more of a diabolical look then he'd planned.

He took his steps in large bounds, trying to get it over there as quick as he could, luckily she didn't seem to notice, preoccupied with the brunette or whatever, and with that he reached out, grab her by her shoulder and tossed her as if she was a redheaded Barbie with the ability to talk back. A moment later the sound of something impacting a store front's window was heard, and Monty held his hand out to the man who was so on the ball that he'd even had time to pop a breath mint.

"You better run, or .. ghost, whatever it is you do. She'll be back up soon." He had no idea he was helping one of Xavier's. After all, it wasn't his choice that he was so sheltered in the hideout.

His pulse quickened with every step Banshee took toward him and for the time being he felt like he was going to have a heart attack. The boy actually whimpered as she stood above him and threatened his life because, God damnit, she really probably would kill him and he'd be powerless to stop her. So shaking on the ground he just shook his head and closed his eyes to hold back the tears threatening to flow from them.

"Please don't kill me." Kit whispered, his voice meek, reflecting his fear. "Please don't kill me. I'm no one. There is n-no point..." Then suddenly she was ripped away from in front of him and tossed aside like she was a little rag doll. His eyes widened in surprised. Had a member of the sisterhood just helped him? Why? Maybe it was to make an example of him. To have him running back to Xavier, telling everyone of how big, bad, and scary members of the Sisterhood were.

Or maybe? The other boy was just being compassionate. Taking his hand he stood and then pulled back a little, gratitude in his eyes.

"Thank you." He whispered and then was bolting off down the street, then across the street before he phased through an empty building and kept running. Kit wanted to put as much distance between himself and the harpy as possible, not wanting to be hurt again.

Thrown like a ragdoll. She had just been totally freaking the shit out of the phaser kid and then her own stupid teammate decided to throw her straight through a glass window. Which caused her to become covered in cuts and scrapes and bruises and glass stuck in her skin. She seemed to take on another personality entirely as she left the building, using her sonic waves to let her fly safely to the ground.

"YOU ARE GOING TO REGRET YOUR ENTIRE EXISTENCE YOU LITTLE PIECE OF SHIT." Siobhan cared not about who was watching at this point. Sonic blasts were sent out to explode things near them, hitting trees and windows and Government property galore. She flew fast, it didn't take but a mere second to catch up to Monty, flying faster than most people could see. Hence, also, why she didn't care anymore. She flew so fast that to them, it looked as if things were randomly exploding, perhaps they caught a flash of fiery red hair but nothing other then that. The speed of sound was faster than the speed of light. You could see it, that was for sure.

With an unusual strength, and perhaps with the luck of catching Monty off guard, she shoved him into the wall and screamed so loud, right into his face, that he'd probably be deaf for a short period of time. She doubled this scream, hiding high pitched sonic undertones beneath the horrific sound so that, if he was that off guard, Monty would simply fall to the ground, unconscious, and wake up later.

Hopefully in jail or something. For the moment, phaser kid was forgotten. Unless he came back into her line of sight.
Let's hope, for the sake of his life, he doesn't.

The kid got away, that was good. Monty was scared of Banshee more than normal, he saw the other boy shaking and biting back tears like Monty did when he had to fight his parents way back when and he swore off crying ever again. Even when facing off against the bitch, who was apparently taking longer to recover than Monty had thought, maybe he threw her too hard and she was now sitting in the backroom unconcious. At least, one could hope! Not really seeing the other boy run off, he looked down the street and only saw him vanish into a building, thru the building actually, and it was all good, and just because he was proud, happy and felt like a hero, he yelled "YOU'RE WELCOME!" after Kit.

Then shit hit the fan, because there was a big ball of flaming red in his face and the pressure of that sonic scream suddenly on his face causing all of his concentration to be placed back on maintaining his aura, keeping it for as long as that lady could hold her breath and keep on screaming. But, the inevitable happened, and he couldn't help but feeling the insomnia work over him, eyes heavy as he stared up at Banshee, and with the last flitter of strength in his system, the violet fading, he brought his knee up right to the woman's chest and passed the hell out from exhaustion and the crazy broad's screaming.

He awoke several hours later in a daze...

And home.

Rolling out of bed, exhausted but exhuberated at the same time, happy that he wasn't killed and managed to save the day, then as he reached down to fish through the front pockets of his hoodie, where he'd happily secured his copy of Horton Hears a Who, the entire purpose of today, he found it gone.

"Motherfu--"

Siobhan.
