This is my revised story to "Luna's Story X Men WOOT!" for those who don't know. The updates will probably be slower, considering I'm re-writing most of it. I really hope this version is better than my old one, and I want y'all to know that once I'm satisfied with the beginning half or so, there is a possibility that I will just copy my original story to this one, then delete the other story. Fair warning, I'm a little insane, but in a good way XD

So anyways, here's my favorite little phrase to begin each chapter:

ON TO LUNA!!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The memories resurfaced again. I was only two years old when my powers surfaced. I was abandoned, lost, scared. I sat by the road and cried, screaming for my mother to return, to come back to me. The tears streamed down my face and there was a noise behind me.

*FLASHBACK: AROUND MIDNIGHT, SIDE OF THE ROAD, ALONE*

I cried for my mother to come back, waited for hours, but she never came back for me. There were a couple of nice, uniformed men standing nearby, so on unsteady legs, I made my way over to them.

"Who's this?" one of the men picked me up and looked carefully at me. "Poor thing, she's shivering."

"Aw, jus' leave 'er." the other guard said, grabbing me and setting me in the road. "Scram!" he said, pushing me with his boot. I caught sight his hand straying towards his gun.

"NO!" I screamed, wobbling as I stood.

"Hey, Mack. I know your girl just left you and all, but look at her! She's all alone out here and- HEY!" he shouted as he caught sight of me stumbling away. "Now look what you did!" he yelled at his friend.

I was almost to the side of the road when a car lost control and hit me. I could only stop and stare as the bright lights loomed ever closer to me. Then, there was only pain in my body.

I woke up a short time later to three concerned faces peering down at me. "Sh-She's awake!" the woman who had hit me stammered out, looking at my face in horror.

"She's a mutie!" the guy called Mack spat, grabbing for his gun.

"Stop!" the other man said. "Just because we are the M.R.D. does not mean we have to kill her. Just leave her there and we'll all pretend like this never happened."

I don't remember what happened after that due to the fact that I fainted upon hearing those words.

I woke again, confused and sleepy. I stumbled into an alleyway, glancing around for someone to help me. No one was around, I was alone. I curled up in an empty box, closed my eyes, and fell asleep, wishing for my parents to love me again.

********************************

*TIME JUMP: THREE YEARS LATER*

Greetings again. I've skipped you ahead three years, since nothing has happened. Well, I take that back. About a year ago, I met these strange people. I was walking around, looking for loose change, hiding from people, and in general just trying to survive.

Suddenly, this HUGE shape stepped right in front of me. I screamed and ran, looking wildly around for somewhere to hide.

This blur suddenly whipped past me, messing up my short fur. Read that again, I have fur. Short fur, tiger striped, orange on left side, white on the right. I had a tail that was mixed orange and white, and golden cat eyes that glowed in the darkness. My ears were pointed and positioned on the top of my head. In short, I looked like a freak.

"Heyshortstuff. Whatareyadoinallalone?" I couldn't keep up with his fast speech. I stopped and he held still, though I could still see his muscles quiver slightly beneath his silver and green getup.

"What?" I said, shaking my head.

"Quicksilver said: why are you all alone?" the giant creature said, waddling over to us. He had a Mohawk and didn't seem like the kind of guy you wanted to mess with.

"Momma left me." I muttered, not meeting their eyes. My eyes darted around, searching for escape routes.

"Hey, don't be afraid." a third mutant showed up. He had a red outfit on and some kind of shield in front of his face attached to a helmet on his head. "I'm Lance Alvers, or Avalanche. This is Fred Dukes, or blob, and Pietro Maximoff, or Quicksilver." he said, pointing to the fat guy and Speedy in turn.

"Luna Elvira Night." I said shyly.

"Well, Luna, how about you come with us? There's a place we want you to see." Lance said, picking me up and carrying me.

We arrived at a run-down shack, with a wooden sign with peeling letters. Quicksilver was the first one in the door, with Blob... I mean Fred, lumbering along after. Lance set me down inside and shut the door.

"Now, we're gonna take care of you, but just remember one thing. If people who say they are the X-Men come after you, tell us right away, got it?" Lance asked.

I nodded. "K..." I said softly.

"Alright, good. Now, this annoying slimeball here is Todd Tolansky." he said, indicating a green, frog-like man. He was crouched down and had a long, sticky tongue. He caught a fly and ate it.

"Ewww..." I said.

"Tell me about it. This is Pietro's sister, Wanda. Also called the Scarlet Witch. We had another known as Boom-Boom, but she joined those goody-goody X-Men. Mystique's not around, so you won't have the "pleasure" of meeting her." Lance finished.

"Who's that?" I asked, pointing to a woman with black hair and a pure black, leather outfit.

"Who? Her? Oh, that's Domino. She's kinda new here." Fred said.

I nodded and sat down on the floor. "Do you have anything to eat?" I asked quietly, unused to this many people.

"Sure we do, sweetie." Domino said, leaving the room. She came back a minute later with an apple.

I took it from her and ate it, careful to eat every last edible bit.

"Poor thing." Domino said, watching me eat.

I listened as the Brotherhood, as these people were calling themselves, explained what a mutant was and who the X-Men were.

"The X-Men are a group of goody-goody two-shoes who save humans, even though they hate us mutants." Fred said in obvious disgust.

I nodded. "So," I said slowly, trying to find the words from listening in on church services and the occasional school classroom, "If I see these 'X-Men' I should tell you guys?"

Lance nodded. "Right." he said.

I nodded again and yawned.

"You better get some sleep." Domino said, already filling the role as my mother.

"K." I said quietly, laying down on the old couch and snuggling under a torn blanket.

*******************

I awoke to gunshots. "We're under attack!" Lance yelled and the earth began to shake.

I screamed and held onto the couch as best I could, barely managing to not fall off.

"What was that?" I asked, eyes wide and frightened.

"That's Avalanche's power. He creates earthquakes." Toad explained.

I nodded (my head is on a spring, I think, with all this nodding) and the shaking stopped. I curled up again, crying softly into the blanket, terrified of the gunshots and of what just happened.

********************

*Time Jump: One Year. Age: about five*

Life with four guys and two girls was pretty hectic. I never met Mystique, I was always conveniently gone when she showed up.

My powers started to show up more and more around the time I was thought to be five. I first noticed my senses getting better, sharper. I could hear better than anyone, see better, and also smell better than anyone. I started to change into a tiger cub, first an orange one after watching Animal Planet, then a white one. It scared me, being able to change into an animal, so I stopped. I repressed the transformation, stopped it completely. It wasn't hard, I just didn't think about it and it went away.

Well, about the time I turned six, some guy in a weird helmet came for me. He was introduced as Magneto and he told me that he was my father. I half-believed him and he took me to someone called Colonel William Stryker. I only remember a tank full of liquid, something called adamantium, and then... nothing. That part of my memory is just gone, like it was never there. I can only recall one tiny bit of a conversation. It was between Stryker and Magneto.

Stryker wasn't aware that I could hear. "You have paid us well, Magneto, for us to transform this so-called 'daughter' of yours into Weapon X. Due to her healing factor, which she knows nothing about, the adamantium bonding was a success. She will never know about the claws in her fingers, or about the training we are about to put her through. She will remain with us for three years, learning all forms of martial arts, fighting styles, and weaponry. Then this part of her memory will be wiped so she can return to your 'family'. You know the plan from there."

I remember waking up one day with no memory of what happened the previous. "Where am I?" I asked, sitting up with a groan.

"Back with the Brotherhood." a woman's voice said. It was domino, and she sat beside me on the couch. "You've been gone for a few years, hon. You're nine years old, remember?"

I shook my head. "I only remember you guys, the Brotherhood that is, and the earlier part of my life." I said with a frown.

"That's all you need to know." Domino said with a kind smile. "Come on, I'll make you chocolate-chip pancakes."

Finally, I'd had enough of the smelly, filthy house that I had once called home. So I just snuck out one night, climbing through a low window and running into the streets.

I walked around for a bit, sticking to the shadows, using my short stature to my advantage. My luck was going good, until I ran into a tall figure.

"Hey, slow down there! Settle down, I won't hurtcha." the figure said, bending down to pick me up. "I'm Liam (LEE-um)." he said with a smile. He had sandy-brown hair and deep, forest-green eyes. He walked down the street with me in his arms until we came to a small house.

He opened the door, set me down, and handed me a blanket.

"There's a bed over there. Here's some soup." He handed me a bowl and I ate the contents gratefully. He watched me with a smile. "You can leave whenever you want, just get some rest tonight." he said.

"O.K." I said quietly, curling up on the bed. I gave a small smile and closed my eyes, already falling asleep.
