CHAPTER TWENTY-SIX —
( Off to a late start? )────────────────
One of the Sentinel's began to charge at the group of three when Erik ripped it apart completely. Lydia held her hand up towards the guns and flew them all away with the swipe of her hand. Raven held the gun pointed at Erik and shot, only just grazing the side of his neck.
Erik dropped to the floor and held onto his wound before smirking up at Raven. "You use to be a better shot."
"Trust me, I still am." Raven flipped and kicked Erik's head, watching as he became unconscious. She then turned the gun on Trask.
"Raven!" Lydia quickly went up to her as she turned around and placed her hands on either side of her head so that she would freeze and see what Charles and her wanted to show her.
"Lydia! Get out of my head!" Raven yelled.
"Raven, please stop," Lydia begged.
"Do not make us the enemy today," Charles said.
"Look around you, we already are," Raven said.
"We aren't all the enemy," Lydia told her. "The humans are just scared of what we can do. They're scared, and when someone is scared they lash out."
"You've already saved the lives of these men. You can show them the better path," Charles said. "I've been trying to control you ever since the day we met. And look where that's got us," he chuckled.
"Everything that happens now is your choice," Lydia said, smiling at her.
"I have faith in you, Raven. We have faith in you."
Lydia let go of Raven's head and she looked at Trask, the gun still trained on him.

The Sentinel's were quick to kill Bobby, then charged into the room the rest of the mutants were in. Three large Sentinel's stared down at the group of mutants and opened up their faces.
"I guess this is it," Avery sadly spoke, shaking her head. "It was nice knowing you all, even you, lil Bro."
Charlie smiled lightly. "I love you, too, Sis."
The Sentinel's fired at the group and then everything went black.

Raven dropped the gun onto the lawn.
Lydia grabbed onto her and pulled her into a hug, a much needed one. Raven wrapped her arms around her, also. "I'm so proud of you," Lydia whispered in her ear. "So very proud."
