Taken to the war

Chapter 1

A gun shot. That's the last thing I remember. A gun shot and my mother... My Mother... the only person who was ever there for me, her body slumped on the ground. That was the last image I saw before everything went black.

Professor Xavier told me that the government had nothing against the developing mutant race. God, I wish I had ignored him and listened the Magneto. I site up and try to refocus my vision. Everything is blurred again when I'm tossed into the air and slam back down, like where ever I am has been thrown up. I sit up and rub the back of my head. I can feel a large bump and it hurts whenever I touch it. There is also a salty taste of blood in my mouth and I soon realise the numbers of fresh cut, gashes and bruises covering my face and body. My lip and upper left forehead is still bleeding and I can feel pain around my eye which must mean it bruised. I was so busy struggling to help my mother I didn't realise the damage they were doing to me and the damage I did to myself in the struggle.

"You alright?" a voice in the dark said, they sounded like they were trying to sound caring but the tone of voice proved it obvious that they didn't care much. "Who's there?" I asked now more alert, looking up at the dark room, my eyes still blurry. "The rooms not very big, I'm right in front of you." The voice replies back with a sense of harshness. I manage to focus my eyes to realise that I'm in some kind of container, they I see the girl who first spoke to me. She doesn't seem to be bothered about whether I notice her or not. She has a dark bob and what looks like green eyes, it's hard to tell what colour because there is no light, just the small cracking in what looks like a door on one end of the container. She's wearing a weird body suit, it's like a skin suit, in black with a zip at the back, similar to a wet suit but the material looks different its thinner and looks flexible. Then I notice in the dark that there are about 14 or 15 more people in here with me, all wearing the same thing. "Where are we?" I say looking around the rectangular shaped container. I move my hand and suddenly feel a sharp pain surge up my hand. I look down and see a strange little metal box on my wrist. Picking at the box the girl who first says to me "I wouldn't take that off it I were you."

"Why?" I ask back, "what is it?" She gives me a blank look, "You really haven't got it?" she says, "It a disabler."

"A what?" My body feels cold as I worry about what it is. "It's a little box that disables you mutant powers. It's like a plug, they stab it into your wrist and it connects to the main veins in your wrist that run along to your core and it disables it" she replies. "Can I take it off?" I say picking at the device. "You can, but the wiring is designed to cut those veins if you try and take it off, so inevitable killing you." I jerk my hand away from the device and sit there awkwardly in the dark staring at it. The girls gives a small smile, and adds "I'm Kia, Kia Dax" I smile back and reply "I'm Astrid Illumons." Kia gives me a smirk. I'm thrown into the air again and I hear the sound of someone being sick in the corner, which then leaves a sickly smell in the box. "Where are we?" I ask in fright. "We're in a van, I thought you would've got that by now you know with all the bumps." A van, why are we in a van, where are we going? My head began to spin and I felt the same nauseousness the person in the corner must've felt. "Where are we going?"

"I don't know, all I know is that we've been in this van for around 3 or 4 days, I've guessed from the meals they slip through occasionally and the light coming through the cracks" Kia replies. 3 or 4 days, I didn't know that I was out for so long. It's scary how much you can miss. The rest of the journey, apart from a few more people being sick.
