"Sebastian Shaw is your what?!" Alex exclaimed.

Abbey ran her hands through her hair.

"Oh my god he's my father."

"How is this possible?" Alex asked.

Abbey's hands shook. They began to glow red.

"He—he made me." Abbey looked towards Charles and Eric. "I'm his creation. His test subject."

"Relax, Abbey." Charles said.

Abbey looked towards Charles.

"How can I relax?! I'm the daughter of a Nazi! A killer!"

"Abbey-"

"Please," Abbey backed out of Alex's touch, "just, don't." Abbey walked out of the room and up the stairs.

"Abbey."

Abbey's hand stopped on her door handle.

"Charles?" Abbey called out. She received no answer.

"Abbey." The voice echoed.

Abbey's hand slid off of the door handle. Her eyelids fluttered.

"Oh Abbey ," the voice echoed. "I've missed you so much."

"Charles." Abbey's voice echoed in her ears. "Charles, she's gotten into my head again."

"Abbey."

"Ahh." Abbey's eyes closed tightly. A loud ringing sound rung in Abbey's ears.

"Shhhh." A woman's voice echoed in Abbey's ears. "It'll be over soon." The loud ringing sound got louder, and painful.

"Charles!" Abbey screamed. Footsteps came running up the stairs.

Blood was running down from Abbey's nose. The pain was excruciating.

"Relax Abbey."

Abbey's body shook. She could feel her body was heating up.

Charles went to touch her, but he could feel the heat radiating off of Abbey. So, he asked Alex for help.

Alex placed one hand on Abbeys shoulder, and the other hand on Charles.

"Abbey." Charles's voice echoed in her head.

"Where is he!" Abbey demanded.

A woman chuckled.

"He'll soon have the whole world. Right in his hands. And you won't be able to stop him."

"Wanna bet?" Abbey said.

The woman only laughed again.

"See you soon Abbey."

Abbey took in a big gulp of air. It felt like she had been suffocated.

"Abbey, are you alright?" Alex asked.

Abbey looked at Alex and nodded her head. Then, she turned to look at Charles.

"I know where they're going."

"Where?" Charles asked.

"To war." Abbey replied.

"We need to get everything ready." Charles said as he led everyone to Hanks lab. "Hank!" Charles called out. "Hank!"

The doors to the lab were slightly open.

"Hank?"

"Charles, there's a note." Raven said.

Charles walked towards Raven and took the note in his hands.

"Hanks not coming, is he?" Abbey asked.

Charles looked at Abbey and sighed.

There was a loud clang that came from above.

"Hank?" Abbey called out.

A big, blue creature landed in front of the group. It had on a white lab coat and glasses.

"Hank?" Abbey walked towards him, but he backed away. "Hank, what happened to you?"

"The serum didn't work." Hanks head lowered.

"Serum?" Charles looked confused, "what serum?"

"I tried to fix my mutation." Hank replied.

Raven went to say something but Charles had cut her off.

"Is she ready to fly?"

Hank smiled.

"You bet she is."

❌ ❌ ❌

"Whoa." Abbey smiled as she looked up at the jet. "This is amazing!"

"You do know how to fly this right?" Charles asked Hank.

"Of course." Hank replied.

"Alright," Charles clapped his hands. "Everyone on board, strap in. This is going to be one interesting day."
