Intro! - EU!Illy, Kitty
Illyana was starting to think that perhaps she no longer belonged anywhere. Home, what had been home, was gone and seemed like a million lifetimes away. Limbo was a fucking nightmare, and Weapon X had been even worse if that was possible. The school was better in that no one was hitting, cutting, injecting, experimenting on her, but it was still claustrophobic in its own way. The classes and the structure of the thing bothered her. It made her skin itch, but she stayed. She had to stay. Piotr was there. The only bright spot in her life, the only hope that she had managed to hang onto was the fact that one day she would see her brother again.
If she asked, she had no doubt that he would leave with her, but she would not do that to him. He had friends here, a life. It was she who needed to learn to bend. The bending she was being asked to do was not so awful anyway.
By rights she should have been studying. There was homework to do and things to learn, but she was tired of it. It did not keep her attention, which was why she was on her way to see Jono so she could beat his ass at chess as a way of apologizing to him, once again, about his face. His company was also enjoyable. He understood things and did not ask pointed questions of her.
She was just turning the corner when the world changed. Teleportation was something that Illyana knew well. It was perhaps the only thing that she knew well other than pain so even though she had felt the tug, she had been completely unable to stop it. Teeth gritted together, she looked around the room she had been deposited into and did not recognize anything. It looked like a throne room that had been abandoned by its king and queen a long time ago.
"Shit," she muttered, summoning her sword from Limbo. This place felt similar to earth, but her mental mapping hadn't been able to form a clear picture yet. The only place she could teleport herself would be Limbo, and that was not an option.
