Etoile collapsed next to the gate. Beyond exhausted and not even sure how she's still alive. This was the only place she could come right away to be taken care of and protected. Right now she needed to try and stay awake, so she could talk to someone about the mission, parents and brother. But the pain was too much for her right now. Etoile felt pain on every inch of her body. She couldn't stop the bleeding on her side, the wound was far too deep. When she took in a breath of air, she grimced at the sharp pain she felt. Still laying next to the gate, in hopes someone would come across her or notice her. Etoile barely had energy to do the next trick..."Forgive me..." she muttered out, with that she linked with the security system and set it off, warning them or someone about an intruder at the front gate. With the last bit of energy she was able to successfuly set off the secruity, before passing out. How could this happen? They did everything perfectly. Her parents were near flawless when it came to missions, especially when they were life threatening. Did those guys knew about them coming to the factory? Did someone tip them off? Whatever happened they were fully prepared to give an onslaught to the LeBeau's. Damn it, you can't die Etoile...stay awake. Wake up! They still need you. Someone...please hurry. |
She was determined to get someone's attention. Staggering forward, she grasped a hold of the metal bars and placed all her weight on the gate to move it forward. Evidently, the pain was too much for her, so she fell inside of the school grounds.
"I can't do it, Papa...I need to rest." she closed her eyes and just waited for her ill fated moment or someone to find her before it was too late.
"Well now,..this is different." He jumps down.
Right now she couldn't careless.
All she knew someone had a very soft soothing voice and the other smelled and felt odd. Or she could be losing it. Whomever they were, she is glad they showed up to help her.
"T-thank you.."
"..you are welcome." He let Cait lead the way inside.
She finally opened her eyes, gaining back a bit of her focus. Looking towards the two people who had helped her.
Etoile had a lot to say, right now she couldn't even comprehend her current state.
Etoile has been out of the loop for awhile. She knew mutants were different, she forgot just how different they were."You look interesting and you're blue..."
He raised an eyebrow. "Interesting? That's a new one."
"..Okay. Good to know." she is glad she'll live to see another day.
She still felt paint, but at least it wasn't so bad as it was before.
Right now she is conflicted. Should she tell them? She'd much rather talk to Xavier first before even talking to them. She doubted they would let her see him right away without answering some questions first.
"Uh, well, my brother can open digital time rifts...he sent me here before I died. As for who caused this..I cannot say, it's confidential." she said. She shakes her head."I'm afraid not...my family is MIA right now. My name is...Etoile LeBeau....and can I speak with Xavier?"
"Yes. Remy Lebeau...he's my father. Tessa Nile or well Tess LeBeau, she is best known as Sage is my mother." She knew they both wouldn't know about the marriage between Remy and Tessa, also wouldn't be aware of their children."It's a long complicated story. Xavier knews it all...this is why I need to report to him immediately."
"I'd much rather speak with Xavier. Summers doesn't know about me or my existance...mind you, he/she may know of my parents. I'll ask 'Professor' Summers to see Xavier...I still can't give him/her the information. These are direct orders from Professor Xavier himself....please try to understand." she sighed.
"The more time we waste here, the less of a chance I have at saving my family. I'll ask you this again, please let me speak with Professor Xavier, if you wish to know more about me, if given permission by Xavier himself, I'll do so..hell I'll even write you a book about it Fredrich."
So, Xavier had secrets he kept even from his students. Interesting.
"Your call, Cait. You can forego the book, I do not partake in much recreational reading."
"Thank you....I'm sorry about before. I just can't give this information to just anyone." she said to Cait. Etoile never thought she would encounter others. She was told all information she obtained is not to be muttered to anyone. Only between herself, her brother, her parents and Xavier. If Xavier wanted others to know, he would inform them. Right now, she couldn't say a single word.
"I didn't mean to come off..as uhh, rude? I'm not exactly a people person. This kind of interaction is new to me." she admitted,
"I apologize. I am..not a people person either." With that he leaves out of hearing distance.
