The Wild Power Series

Day of Destiny

By Rogue

Part Eleven


They were escorted into a holding cell deep within the floating complex.

"Cool! I've always wanted to come here! I've just been so busy in my reality... that I haven't had time to visit." said Kristi as she plopped herself down onto a bed, of which there were two.

"What are you? Some kind of mystical being like Madame Web?" asked Peter.

"Hun? Whose Madame web?" asked Logan as he took a comfortable seat in the cell.

"No, Yes, well kind of.... The fact is, I had no idea until we were pulled into this reality by unknown forces to us and then there was a big battle... I won't go into it in detail now, or else I might take weeks! Anyhow, I do have powers that rival the Beyonders... I guess you can call me the protector of this dimension. I have control over all Fay magic and that's wild magic... It's kind of hard to explain my situation." muttered Kristi trying to find the right words to use.

"You can start with who your friends are and who has them." said Peter trying to figure out what he had just gotten himself into. After all, he had just given up his job, friends and life in this reality for her and her cause!

"Crystal, Kielle and Dustin are I guess what you can call my chosen. They can use my powers whenever they want and when they can't I've installed in them a gem or gems of power, like these." said Kristi showing him her palms. "I don't really know, I guess I'm kind of confused. I can grant people the ability to use my powers and I can give them gems. But, they don't hold power, like Crystal, Kielle and Dustin do. Can you understand that? I feel like I still need to find the people to help me and the problem with that is that they can be anyone, anywhere. But back to the problem, the Aluminati have my husband, Remy Lebeau... Crystal's husband, Darien... Kielle's husband and little boy, Angel and Colin... and last a friend of mine, Scott Summers. I'm sure you know him. Anyhow, everyone knows who Sinister is, he needs no explanation. He heads the powerful group, the Aluminati, here..." Kristi was about to say more when she, Peter and Logan were taken out of the cell and pushed into this big room where Fury was waiting.

"Now I wonder what gave Jamerson the cause to call us?" asked Fury sarcastically as he pointed to a recording of the broadcast they had made earlier that day.

"It's a hoax to get the Aluminati to capture me and then take me to their headquarters so that I can free my friends." sighed Kristi at having to repeat this over and over and over and over and over again. Logan and Peter sat down, contented to leave her do all the explanation.

"You know that you aren't the only one who wants to take down the Aluminati." said Fury.

"Yeah well... I'm the only one who CAN do it. I would really like to see you try." said Kristi.

"You think that you can do this all by yourself, what makes you so special, that you can take on an organization so powerful that they control almost the whole world!!!" screamed Fury. Fury was mad that he hadn't even intimidated her.

"She's the embodiment of all." started Peter before a hand clamped over his mouth. "Ump, umh, hmh, umup..."

"I can't tell you." said Kristi simply.

"If you can't, then I will." smiled Logan. He began to go into a detailed process about how the earth was formed. Man did he sound like Beast! Now they knew who he had been hanging around with.

She was getting bored and decided to look around the room while Logan made Fury bored. Using her powers discretely, she peaked behind walls and to her surprise she saw Crystal!

"Crystal! Crystal is here!" shouted Kristi. The two men looked at each other startled and stared. She opened up her powers to Crystal once again to talk to her.

*

Crystal was talking to the men, when her jewel started to glow bright! What the hell was happening! With her wearing a low V-neck shirt, she could no longer hide the jewel with it's power and it was visible to everyone. It lifted itself out of her, and like a shatter of lightning it shot back into her until the next time, her power would be cut off. Crystal then collapsed and got right back up onto her seat. The last time this had happened to her, she had been unconscious!

Jubilee was also experiencing the uncomfortable process of having power returned to her. Although, she wasn't aware of it in the first place and didn't know what was going to happen once she did receive it. It was a good thing that Crystal had explained this all to her. Like Crystal, her jewel lifted itself out of her and shot back into her throwing her back against the seat.

Then Crystal heard Kristi's mental voice calling to her. Jubilee heard it too.

Uh? Who are you? asked Jubilee to Kristi.

"Kristi is here!" rejoiced Crystal.

Who are you? asked Kristi confused. She had thought she had made connecting with Crystal.

"Who is Kristi?" asked Max.

"She is our leader of us wild powers. Now, I think we can go ahead with our plan." smiled Crystal.

I'm Jubilee. You must be Kristi and you have some explaining to do! said Jubilee making it a promise.

Crystal were at S.H.I.E.L.D.! said Kristi. Logan began to talk to Fury again taking his attention off Kristi and back to the matter at hand.

Holy Shit! I would of never guessed that one of those corvettes could be one of those cool cars that I saw on Spiderman!

*

"Who the hell is Crystal?" asked Fury in obvious impetuosity, ignoring Logan's attempts of taking his mind of the subject. Kristi's jewel also shot out of her hands and then shot back in as pure energy as she connected to Crystal and Jubilee.

She had forgotten how painful it could be. Kristi, as soon as she regained composure, bolted from the room. She heard the scream to close the door, get guards and so forth, but she didn't care. All that mattered was getting to Crystal and vice versa. With pure kinetic force she ripped off the door and headed in Crystal's direction. Logan and Peter were sure surprised!

The two girls were being followed by guards on either side. They came into an embrace and a force field erected around them. So when the guards hit it, they went down like dominoes! It looked really funny! Jubilee pushed through the men on the ground and walked right up to them as if the force field didn't exist.

"Crystal, Jubilee, are you okay?" asked Max from one side.

"Get away from her this instant!" shouted Fury on the other.

Together, Kristi, Crystal and Jubilee walked towards Peter and Logan on Fury's side of the hallway. He started to run back but Logan held onto his sleeve on his shirt and before they knew it, their force field caught up with them and they were both let in.

"Peter, it's fine! You are in my force field. Guys, let's get out of here... The Aluminati have informer here and they will be here any minute!" said Kristi urgently.

"What do you mean that they will be here any minute?" asked Crystal confused.

"Hey! Can you explain to me what exactly is going on" demanded Jubilee, frustrated.

Kristi told her the story of how she had threatened to blow up the planet. Crystal sat in shock. This was something totally unexpected and from Kristi to boot! As they started to run, hopefully in a direction that led outside.

"Well, I was talking about an other idea... but your seems like it's already in motion and I like it! So, where to now?" asked Crystal.

They kept running until they ended up on a launching pad.

"Okay, how are we going to get down? Are we going to grow wings and glide down?" asked Peter wondering how they were going solve this problem.

"Yeah, fly like Warren, that's a laugh." snorted Jubilee. Logan stood quietly, because he knew what was comin'.

"That sounds like a good idea!" said Kristi with a grin... Well, he did suggest it!

Kristi made two gigantic wings grow on each of their arms...

"HEY! I WAS KIDDING!" screamed Peter as his arms changed before his very eyes. Crystal looked at her with great fear. Kristi was now officially crazy! Logan looked at his arms. There was a first time for everything. Jubilee smirked and took a leap off.

"Yipeeee!" shouted Jubilee as she fell through the air.

Kristi took a great leap off the building when Logan did. Crystal and Peter could only shrug their shoulders and follow after them. After all, it was either this or be captured once again. Although, somewhere on the way down she heard every single French swear known to man from Crystal. Good thing Remy wasn't there to chide her.

They landed in central park, near a big lake. Jubilee slumped down against a tree and Peter joined her. Kristi then promptly changed their arms back. Logan decided to take a small walk around the area to secure it, then return.

"We really should do that again sometime, in our own reality Kristi. It was fun!" said Crystal. She had completely forgotten about her fear of heights after the second kilometer as they descended towards the Earth.

Peter look a little shaken but shook it off easily.

"We HAVE to try that again sometime! The air running through your hair, hitting the clouds, no fear of having seagulls poop on your head... it was exhilarating!" gushed Kristi.

"Huh? People, we could of been killed because I DON'T KNOW HOW TO USE THESE THINGS!" yelled Peter referring to the wings that had been in the place of his arms.

"Calm down Peter, were alive aren't we? That should be enough." smiled Crystal. "What now Kristi?"

"Now we wait." smiled Kristi as she sat down on the bench... it wouldn't be a long wait.
