BBP: The Rescue

[x-wolfcub.livejournal.com]

Kurt poofs in to save Natalie, and is surprised by the ease of everything. But things are thrown into question by two voices passing by.

Backdated: To yesterday due to Iron-Man :)



Kurt appeared in the room as silently as possible, though there was nothing to be done about the sound of his teleportation, and quickly waved the smoke away from the door. Natalie was indeed in bed, but... he wasn't quite convinced she was asleep.

"Natalie? I have come to help."


The girl in the bed instantly threw her covers to the side to reveal that she already had a pair of jeans and sneakers on, hidden by the sheet, as she rolled over, a smile was on her face as she searched the darkness for the visitor. "Nicky, I knew you would." But the girls instantly froze as she saw the blue man, pulling her arms into her gut, she doubled her neck back, as a look of shock grew over her face. "Nicky, what happened to you?" She couldn't help but breathe a little heavier. "Is this part of your... mutant thing?


He waved his hand quickly, hushing her. "Nick is fine, just as you last saw him. I came on his behalf. My name is Kurt."


The girl slowly stretched out her feet as she still seemed to be a bit hesitant about going near the strange man. "He told me that the less I knew the better." She blinked innocently as she seemed to be trying to piece the whole situation together. "Are you here to save me? Can you take me to him?"


"That is why I came", he agreed. "He asked me to help, so... I have a friend waiting outside to assist us, if you would rather not teleport. Some do not like it."


"Whatever gets me out of here the quickest." The girl bit her lip, indicating that it may not be her favorite idea, but seemed to put on a good face as she thrust her chin forward. But her eyes suddenly widened as she seemed something suddenly hit her in the head. "Just let me get my bible, and we can do whatever you need to do to get me away from that man."


"Of course", Kurt agreed. "And the photographs of your parents, perhaps? But quickly, before someone hears."


The girl listen to the man, as she quickly began rummaging around her things, opening up the bible, which was the first thing she opened, she quickly began shoving in a few pictures towards the binding. But her shaking hands dropped one of the photographs to the floor. "Shoot." She quickly squatted to the floor but as soon as she grabbed the photo, the girl froze at the sound of shuffling feet and a voice outside.

"Everything seems to be in order, as long as you come through on your part of the plan." The voice was muffled and low as it passed by the room, but was hinted with the twinge of the mixing of accents, marking is more. The voice was cool, almost devoid of any apparent emotion.


Kurt had moved, quick and silent, to stand between the girl and the door. If anyone came in, he meant to defend her, and he lifted a finger to his lips as he met her eyes.


"You don't have to worry about that," came the cool and even toned response from the person who could only be Matthew Risman. "The package is already in play and the devilspawn won't know what hit them until it's too late. As far as I'm concerned, it's you we need to worry about fulfilling your end of this agreement." The sound of a hand clapping down on a heavily clad shoulder echoed slightly through the abandoned mill. "But I have faith in God and He has faith in our plan- so we need not worry."

The girl next the Kurt frantically began to tug as his arm. Her voice came as a rushed whisper, her urgency showing. "We have to get out of here! I'm scared!"


Kurt was frowning at the door, unsure why the first voice had sounded familiar and not liking what he'd heard in any case, but he looked down at the girl and nodded, taking a firm grip on her arm. "It will be all right", he said quietly, and the next moment they were gone.
