Disclaimer: I do not own Mutant X, Tribune Entertainment, Marvel Comics,
and Fireworks do.
Author's Notes: This is the 5th in the Sierra Series.sorry this is the only stories I've been able to focus on lately. Also, just so everyone knows I've been in USA patriotic mode since Sept 11th, hense all the red, white, and blue and such you might read about. Also, the angels.well that's for my friend's mom.
Dedication: This story is actually dedicated to a few people. First of all to Riley (you know who you are!) for being so great! Second, for Ian (who will probably NEVER read this!) because he got me thru my math workshop! (thank god! I hate math soooo much!). And lastly to one of my best friends, Carla!, just for being herself!
Mutant X "Cody's Angels" By: innocent choir girl
Chapter 1 - Overturning an Angel
Genomex
Gabriel was not happy. He had been created two children and he rejected one and the other rejected him. Doctor Harrison had disappeared after the labs had been trashed. He hadn't kept The Strand active.they had done nothing for some time. Gabriel had given up on his children, his followers, and his religion. His world was crumbling down around him and he didn't care. He was bored.
Sanctuary
"You know as insane as this sounds," Jesse said, "I actually miss the GSA.even Eckhart."
"You've got to be kidding!" Shalimar was shocked.
"Jesse's right," Emma chimed in, "it's not as exciting as it used to be."
"We have three kids, isn't that exciting enough?" Brennan asked.
"I'll pick them up," Adam volunteered. "I told Sierra and Analyn that I would get them each a new book."
"What about Cody?"
"I can get him a book, too."
"Well, they're not out for another four hours," Shalimar said.
"So, what is all this talk about missing Eckhart?"
"It's just so quiet lately," Jesse explained.
"Yeah, and Gabriel is unpredictable," Emma added.
"I don't mind the quiet," Adam told them.
"Yeah, I don't mind it either," Shalimar agreed.
"Shalimar, not missing the action?" Jesse questioned.
"I have kids now, Jess.it's not that I don't miss the action.it's just that I have them to think about now, too."
Two Weeks Later.
Sanctuary
The kids were at school, Adam was doing research, while the others were watching Proxy Blue. "In the last week five people have been killed.some say these people possessed unnatural abilities.were they killed to hide the truth or out of hatred?...well now we may never know." Proxy Blue reported.
"New Mutants?" Jesse asked aloud.
"Looks that way." Brennan commented.
"Maybe we should tell Adam to watch Proxy Blue," Emma suggested.
"I'll go tell him," Shalimar volunteered.
A Little Later.
Sanctuary
"So, we're dealing with a New Mutant killer," Adam said. "I've tracked all of the New Mutants that were killed and they all track back to The Stand."
"The Strand?" Brennan asked a bit surprised.
"Could Gabriel be killing his followers?" Emma asked.
"I'm not sure." Adam answered.
"But he is a sociopath," Shalimar reminded.
"Well, we better find out," Adam told them.
"Mutant X finally gets some action!" Jesse sad excited.
"What about the kids?" Shalimar asked Adam.
"I'll pick them up from school if you're not back in time," Adam told Shalimar.
"Okay," Shalimar said and she, Brennan, Jesse, and Emma went to change.
Genomex
The Double Helix had been cloaked and landed on the roof of Genomex. Jesse phased through the roof access door and then opened it to let the others in. They made their way through Genomex surprisingly easily. They hadn't seen or heard anyone. They entered the room below Eckhart's office that usually held five pods, and what they found shocked them. All of the members of The Strand were dead. Gabriel stood in the middle just staring up at the ceiling. "I've done it!" he told them.
"What have you done?" Brennan asked.
"Oh my god! How could you do this, Gabriel?" Emma asked in shock at all the now dead members of The Strand."
"God came to me.the real god! Not men pretending to be gods like Adam and Eckhart! And he said to me.Gabriel, my angel.I am one of god's angels! The children I sent you were tests.and in order to be sent a truly perfect child, you must make a sacrifice.I must kill all who follow me or have followed me.and so I killed them."
"Looks like god hasn't sent you a child, Gabriel," Shalimar said.
"But I haven't killed all the sacrifices god demanded, yet."
"It looks like you killed all of your followers." Jesse said looking around at the bodies that lay at their feet.
"Weren't you listening?" Gabriel asked, "god demanded that I kill all of my followers and all who were once in The Strand." Gabriel looked over at Shalimar, "Shalimar, you were once part of The Strand.I knew Adam would send you.but I also know that Shalimar is the last member of The Strand." Gabriel said and then was repeatly shot. Gabriel fell to the ground before Mutant X to reveal who had shot Gabriel.Mason Eckhart.
"Surprise," Eckhart said flatly.
"How the hell did you get out of the pod?" Brennan asked.
"Mr. Ashlock let me out, Mr. Mulwray," Eckhart told him.
"Why would he do that?" Jesse asked.
"He must have figured that he was going to heaven and leave you all in hell."
"Well isn't that nice."
"Tell Adam that I'm back, would you?" Eckhart said before walking off.
"Can't we just kill him?" Brennan asked.
"No," Shalimar answered.
"Why?"
"Adam wouldn't want us to."
"She's right," Jesse chimed in.
"Let's go home," Shalimar said pulling Brennan with her as they started back up to the roof to the Double Helix.
