Three Mile Island was very beautiful after dawn. This was an island inhabited by people. There was even a lookout tower outside the beach, where one could stand by the sea and watch the sunrise. When half of the sea was dyed red by the sunlight, it was a beautiful scene that many people had never seen in their lives.
"The sun is out. Oh my god, it's so beautiful …"
A mutant girl stood by the cold sea. She looked at the distant dawn in a daze. Beside her, Scott Summers, who was wearing a black eye patch, also breathed in the fresh air here. He said softly, "Don't worry.
"Can you describe the scenery to me now?"
The girl looked at Scott. During the escape the night before, Catherine led them out of the base, but when they were chased after, only two children stood out to protect everyone. One was Kayla's sister, and the other was Scott.
This 17-year-old child wore a black eye patch to protect himself and the others. As long as his eyes were open, they would release a terrifyingly hot laser light, destroying everything in front of him. Weapon X, the terrifying killer's eyes, were the eyes that were bred with his genes.
Hearing Scott's request, the girl, who still had a trace of dirt on her face and was wearing a stained prison uniform, broke into a smile. Then, she held his arm and described softly to him.
"That's the sun. It's not very warm, but it's very beautiful. It rises from the sea and illuminates the land in front of it. It's not very fast, but we can see it. It's like a big fireball, breaking free from the ground bit by bit. It's … it's pursuing its own freedom."
The girl's voice was choked. She covered her face with her left hand, and tears flowed down her face uncontrollably.
"Free, we're free. Oh my god! Oh my god, we're finally free from that hell. "
Beside them, the rest of the children were like them. They were either quiet or crying on the beach, welcoming the dawn of a new day.
A skinny boy who was playing with a lighter in his hand also looked at all of this in a daze. He looked at the sun that had jumped into the sky. Suddenly, he rubbed his eyes in doubt and then confirmed that he was not seeing things. He suddenly jumped up from the ground and shouted loudly.
"Something's flying over!"
"What?"
The other children were frightened. They hurriedly raised their heads, but they did not see anything in the bright sky. They looked suspiciously at the boy who was playing with fire. He anxiously stretched out his hand and shouted.
"Really! Although he couldn't see it, the heat it emitted was there! I'm not lying to you. It's like a big bird, and it's very fast! Oh my god, he's as fast as lightning! "
"John, you're not lying to us, right?"
The girl who was supporting Scott looked suspiciously at the guy who was fiddling with the lighter like a hooligan. Scott suddenly felt humiliated and shouted loudly, "I'm sorry, but I'm sorry.
"Really! I won't lie to you about this! "
Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel, the older Scott shouted loudly.
"Alright, stop arguing! We still don't know if they're friends or foes … John, if there's a conflict later, help me guide the way! "
John was stunned for a moment, then a smile appeared on his face. He pressed the lighter in his hand, and a spark jumped into his hand. Then, it quickly turned into a fireball rolling in his palm. It looked abnormally magical.
"Leave it to me, boss Scott."
He was only 14 years old, an age where he admired violence and some special behaviors. He liked Scott and Catherine's fighting style very much. In fact, it was not that he did not want to help last night, but his ability was only to control fire. He could not start a fire, and the water vapor at the seaside was too strong at night. His ability was not complete, so he could not start a fire at all.
All he could do was stand aside and watch. However, just as John and Scott were about to fight, a voice rang in the children's minds. It was very gentle and very amiable.
"Alright, children … Step back a little. I know you have a lot of questions, but now is not the time. When we reach a safe place, I'll tell you everything …"
The moment this voice rang out, all the children's restlessness was immediately smoothed out. A calming power surged in their hearts, making them subconsciously step back a lot. A moment later, a very sci-fi black plane landed steadily on the sea. To be precise, it was floating there.
The cabin door opened, and Storm Lady Ororo was the first to appear in the air. She looked at Three Mile Island under the sun, looked at the almost completely destroyed buildings, and looked at the scene that resembled a war zone in the Middle East. She could not help but rub her temples.
"Saber … Is this your true destructive power?"
However, when her eyes fell on the pitiful children dressed like refugees who were staring at her and the plane on the sea, Ororo's heart was touched again. She stepped on the wind and quickly walked to the children's side. When they saw her coming, some of the children who had been horribly abused could not help but take a step back.
The wounds on their bodies made Ororo shudder in fear, and his hatred for Stryker, whom he had never seen before, grew even more.
This time, only three people seemed to have come: Ororo, Professor Charles, and Beast. They walked on the wind bridge summoned by Ororo and finally landed on the beach. All the children had their eyes on Beast. It could not be helped. Brother Beast's appearance was just too eye-catching.
"Child, have you seen Saber? Where is he? "
Professor Charles saw Scott at a glance. This child with a black eye patch seemed to be the absolute center of these children. In the face of the gentle inquiry, although Stryker could not see, he could feel the kindness from the other party. He could not help but answer.
"The gentleman who saved us seems to have gone to deal with his own matters. It seems to be related to the demon Stryker."
Professor Charles nodded and looked at Ororo.
"Go find Saber. Don't let him do anything excessive … Stryker deserves to die! But the others on this island are innocent. "
"Okay."
Ororo nodded and stepped on the wind to leave quickly. For a mutant like her who could control the wind at will, it was easy to find a person. The wind everywhere would tell her where Saber was.
Five minutes later, Oro walked into the base that had completely collapsed. In the darkness, she walked quickly. The tunnel that had been severely damaged by Weapon X could not hinder her footsteps. Not long after, she saw the laboratory that was still glowing in front of her, as well as Catherine who was standing guard in front of the laboratory and playing with her phone.
"Catherine, is Saber here?"
Ororo asked softly. Catherine pointed behind her without raising her head. "He's inside, but I don't think you'll want to go in and see …"
The little girl made a face. "It's disgusting inside."
Hearing Catherine's words, Ororo hesitated for a moment, but she still pushed open the door of the laboratory and walked in. Then she saw Saber, who was wearing a white coat and a doctor's hat, holding a thick needle in his hand. He was injecting something into the arm of the guy who was still struggling on the experiment table.
Under the dim light, she could still hear Saber's pleasant but strange voice.
"Ah, Mr. Stryker, the serum I'm injecting into your body is labeled as No. 21. I'm sorry, but even Doctor Seiber doesn't know what kind of ability this damn thing represents. But I think it must be a very powerful gene fragment since it's kept by you, right?"
"Oh, look at you. Why do you look so painful? Come and smile. Don't you feel the power surging out of your body? Isn't this what you want? "
Saber chuckled, pushed the syringe in his hand to the bottom, and then threw it aside. Ororo could see that there were more than a dozen broken syringes scattered on the ground. Just as she hesitated, Stryker, who was lying on the hospital bed, struggled frantically. He whimpered but couldn't speak.
"Ahem, don't struggle. Hey, be quiet, you bastard."
Saber stretched out his hand and pressed Stryker on the hospital bed. "Isn't this what you want to use to kill us freaks? Stop it, you bastard, don't disturb Dr. Saber's thinking! By the way, why don't you speak? "
"Oh, I forgot. I sewed your mouth shut … Damn it. It's really uncomfortable not being able to hear your screams. But it's okay. Look, your arm is starting to mutate again. Isn't this what you did for me back then?"
He reached out and took off the blue doctor's hat, threw it aside, and patted Stryker on the shoulder with a gentle smile on his face.
"Don't thank me, Mr. Stryker. This is what I should do. Enjoy your last moments. By the way … you don't need to tell me anything because I'm not interested … Goodbye."
He and Stryker made a final, "friendly" farewell, then turned around, took off the blood-stained white coat, reached for the knife, and walked out of the laboratory as if no one was around. He didn't pay attention to Ororo who was standing there in a daze.
She was frightened by Saber's calm and ferocious expression. His whole body was surging with substantial murderous intent, but he chose to retaliate even more crazily. She had never seen Saber like this before.
After Saber left, Ororo took a few steps forward. She glanced at Stryker who was tied to the hospital bed. His face had been completely deformed under the effect of the deranged X gene. His eyes stared straight at her, and the unimaginable pain only revealed one meaning.
"Kill me … I beg you!"
Ororo trembled and pulled away the sheet covered with blood that covered Stryker's body. She only glanced at it, then covered her mouth and threw herself over it.
"Ugh!"
Ororo, who was well protected by Professor Charles, had never seen such a terrible execution. She shook her hands wildly, and dazzling lightning burst out in the laboratory. In an instant, the tortured Stryker was turned into charcoal, and his pain ended.
She turned around, and her eyes had turned pale. She rushed out of the laboratory, and under the influence of some kind of will, she rushed towards Saber. But before she could call for lightning, the next moment, his left hand grabbed her neck like an iron clamp and slammed her against the steel wall behind her.
"Bang!"
Ororo suffered a heavy blow, and the light in her eyes was completely shattered. Saber's left hand increased the strength, making Ororo feel suffocated. He said in Ororo's ear.
"Little black cat … you ruined my execution … but it doesn't matter, I've done what I should do anyway."
He looked at Ororo, tilted his head and looked at her with a touch of doubt on his face.
"Why are you so serious?"
He gently kissed Ororo's cheek with a wicked smile, but his eyes were calm. He reached out and flicked Ororo's earlobe with almost indifference, making Ororo's body tremble violently.
"Come, smile."
After that, he let go of his left hand, and Ororo, who was shrouded in a murderous aura, fell to the ground. In front of her, Catherine held Saber's arm, and the two of them walked into the darkness.
"Saber, Saber, you killed him, didn't you?"
"Yes, do you want me to let him go? That kind of scum, tsk tsk, it's disgusting just thinking about it. "
"What I mean is, did he beg for mercy in the end?"
"Uh … this, I don't think so …"
"Tsk, you're too lame! You used to be able to make those scumbags kneel and beg for mercy. You're so cool! "
Listening to the conversation that was getting further and further away, the pain in Ororo's eyes became more and more serious. She frantically wiped her face, as if there was something terrible left there. But in the end, two tears of grievance fell from Ororo's eyes.
Saber had killed Stryker, and he had done a good thing, but why did she not agree with him? Why was it that after meeting Seiber, her firm view of good and evil became useless? What was good and evil? She began to feel confused. What was bad?
Ororo was deeply confused.
