Nightscrawlers

Let me tell you about the first time I died. I was fourteen, a year after the Mutant Murders, and they were bringing in a nurse to test us for the mutant gene. I wasn't really worried. Sure, dad had been a mutant, but I had never manifested any powers, and my mother wasn't a mutant. Most of us weren...

Geez. I guess I, as a devoted Pagan, am in the minority of those posting in this thread. I deconverted from fundie Christianity in 1999, so I don't see Christianity as a blessing in general. I see religion as the particular category of faith one follows (e.g. I have faith in Christ, therefore I'm a ...

Interview 1: Gambit, AKA Remy LeBeau speaks with Dr. Henry McCoy...all spellings are the editor's -- Ed. Dr. McCoy: I imagine you were rather bitter about your betrayal. Gambit: Damn right, cher. Remy did good for the criminal underground, and then the underground turn him in to the haters. D: What ...

It was Christmas Eve now, the night before our planned prison break. Mystique would be getting Hookup into his gear to let the mutants know we were getting them out. Hookup was...unusual. He had no telepathy of his own, but he could put two minds together, effectively giving them both telepathy for ...

Uh-oh. Should I be flattered or disturbed?

Thanks for your comment. More will be forthcoming, including an interesting revelation about what the main character's real mutant power is...stay tuned!

I made my stumbling way home, crying a little. He told me to get out after the light faded, and I did. The scratches still stung, but they didn't matter as much as my internal pain. I had to do it, but oh, it had been hard. I couldn't let them be hurt, let another be lost...and I couldn't hurt Her, ...

I had to be on discipline detail when the news came in that the Wagner twins had been caught trying to teleport past the electric fences again. Why me? My friend Wanda Maximoff tapped my arm. "Sorry. Looks like you're up this time, Elena." Reluctantly, I rose from my chair in the televisio...

(Maybe I've been reading too many "Lightning Squad" and "Kurt Must Die!" stories on here, but this is a new world I have stories to explore in. Join me, won't you?) The year of the Mutant Murders started a ten year imprisonment program for mutants. Mutants were systematically str...

The last box was finally wrapped. It wasn't easy finding presents for everyone, but Kitty had finally found appropriate ones. She hoped. Now she was joining a few of the others who'd come in early from the snowball fight to get cider, hot cocoa, and treats ready. Then they'd sit around the fire and ...

According to my Marvel Encyclopedia: X-Men, written by Syd Barney-Hawke, Xorn's powers are "manipulation of gravitational wavelengths" and "extraordinary healing abilities." It also says Xorn "successfully rid the team of the nano-Sentinel infection" and "healed Pr...

Y'all are going to make me blush. (Why isn't there an "embarrassed" smilie?)

Thanks, sweetie. Like I said, if you have any suggestions for what happens at the mansion, let me know!

I wrote this as a way to summarize some of the changes Ive made in my X-Universe for a friend. I hope you enjoy it. ***************************** I grinned as I set the last few flowers in place. Scott and Rogue had finally made the announcement last month that they would be getting married, and I w...

How about Kurt and Stacy X? :D I don't know that there's any established female character in the X-men universe I'd like to see him with. In my personal universe, he's falling for a succubus right now. As for Wolverine, you know, I think he should really be paired up with a reformed Mystique. She co...

I knew they would probably try to track us by my use of the teleportation device, so I kicked off my shoes and started running. "Pull the cuffs off and move it," I said, as I reached the ladder out. As I made my way up the ladder, I heard the splash of the cuffs being thrown and the felt h...

Story Note: This is not part of any X-men universe I know of. It's just an idea I got so clearly that I had to write it down, and it came in "movie" format to me, but it doesn't quite fit IMO with the X-men movie universe either. Anyway, hope you enjoy this one-shot story. Also, if you're ...

Wolverine had been preparing this snowball for about five minutes. It was solid ice now in his tingling hands. He took careful aim and hit the tree branch above Kurt. Kurt had about five seconds to say, "Ha ha! You missed me..." before most of the rest of the snow on the tree fell on him. ...

Outside, things were proceeding much as expected. The more mischievous students and X-men were having violent snowball fights. Others were making snow mutants and other things out of snow. A few kids were making a sledding run down a haphazardly crafted snow hill. Only a few people remained inside, ...

Part 1 = Here Comes Santa Claus? Packages had been piling up under the tree at Xavier's School for the Gifted, because most of its students lived there year-round. Guards had also, reluctantly, been posted over the gifts after someone opened up a SuperSoaker early and effectively ended the pyrokines...

Well i normal don;t like Jean or Scott --Me either...that's why I've changed them in my X-universe. :D There area few cases that it did not seem like that character though. --Well, if I was inconsistent in keeping them straight, please let me know where. I am willing to edit. If I was inconsistent w...

Thank you, kind lady. This is in my own X-verse, but I'm honored that you think it could be part of an established/published one. I intend to write more, after I finish up a Nightcrawler tale summarizing some of the changes I've made to the general X-men universe in my world for a friend (I might po...

I rolled over and took Rogue in my arms. Sometimes I still found it hard to believe that she had chosen me, of all people, to be with…sparkling, funny Rogue with boring old uptight Scott. But my newfound ability to control my power was also absorbing a lot of my attention. Seeing the world without a...

Elfquest books are still available in my local Border's. The writing is good, though I was disappointed in Cutter. I never found him very exciting or interesting.

X2 Kurt isn't squeamish about women, though. He had no problem scooping Storm up into his arms, now, did he? ;) Held her for a while, too. He's just new and uncertain of how he'll fit into the group yet. Once he settles in, I predict growth in self-confidence. Of course, if I'm wrong, I deny that I ...

I apologize for the oversight, Zwei, but I've never seen Sling Blade. ::waits for the gasps of horror:: At least I can't say anything bad about it, though.

Hm...I also have huge numbers of favorite movies, so I'm going to try to list only ones which have not specifically been mentioned by anyone else. (Sigh...please don't get all Rocky Horror on me if I do, though...I haven't had my coffee yet...) Plan 9 From Outer Space: For sheer unintentional humor....
