Mission: Episode 0: X Lang Syne
Location: Xavier's School For Gifted Youngsters
Timeline: June 26, 1990

It was afternoon and Sonya was back from the city. She found a job at the computer store because she was fascinated with computers since she met them for the first time over a year ago. New York was a great place to follow on that. Guys at the store were falling head over feet to explain to her every intricacies of current personal computers, both hardware and software. Today for example, there was launch of the new Microsoft Windows 3.0 that her boss was claiming would the literal change of the game. Besides, having part-time job was great source for extra money.

Sonya fresh out of shower was returning to her room. She needed to freshen up after whole day of work. Her long dark blonde hairs slicked to her back and she had only a towel wrapped around her chest reaching down as far as half of her thigh. She reached for the doorknob when she heard doors opening in the room next to hers. There was a new girl in town, so to say, but because of Sonya’s shifts at work, they haven’t really had a chance to talk.

Sonya stopped with the hand on the doorknob, her eyes curiously watching emerging new girl from the next door. “Hi. I am Sonya. I think we haven’t had a chance to talk to yet.”

Katy had just started to come out of her room for a run and was wearing a black one piece bodysuit with white lightning like stripes across the chest. When she nearly bumped into the other girl, she stopped and gave a quick smile. "Hi, I'm Katy," she said. "Been here long?"

Sonya grinned playfully. The girl was fast. "Yeah, two months or something." She replied and offered hand for a shake. "Nice to meet you." Sonya assessed the dark-haired girl in front of her and pointed at the lightning. "I am guessing you are a speedster? Off to train?"

Katy looked down at the jagged lightning on her outfit. "That kinda gives it away, doesn't it?" She asked. "I was, but I have time. I'm not being timed today. What's your power?"

"Enhanced reflexes, though probably nowhere near as yours, enhanced agility and strength, killer training in KGB, and recently... electromagnetism." Sonya flashed her teeth in a boastful smile. "But I'd say that my true power is my winning personality." She leaned against the door of her room, resting her left barefoot on the door, as she flexed her leg. "If you are in no hurry, I can dress up and we can get a cup of tea?" She suggested.

"Well, you certainly have a beautiful smile," the brunette said with a smile of her own. "That's pretty impressive, not to mention a bit...sexy. A KGB assassin and all that? Snap! I'd love to work out with you...I mean have some tea."

Sonya laughed. "I like you already." She said sincerely, feeling a good vibe from the other girl. It was a nice change after all other students she met so far. "I know, my New Yorker accent might be a bit misleading on that KGB element that you found the most attractive." She winked at Katy, bounced off the door, turned on the heel and opened the door. "Where are you from?" She asked as she entered the room. Without any shame, she dropped the towel on the floor as she entered. Sonya was far from being modest and honestly didn't care. Showers were communal so she felt that if Katy wanted to watch, she wouldn't deny her. Quickly she found panties in the first drawer and put them on, then searched another drawer for a longer moment until she found pink fluffy socks. Moving on it was just a white t-shirt and red cardigan.

"New York City," Katy said as she turned, wondering about Sonya's accent for a moment before her jaw dropped as well. She let her eyes take in every inch of the other young woman in a microsecond, then backed up a bit more slowly, this time taking a full second to openly ogle her before her eyes snapped back up. "Born and bred, babe." She stepped into the room behind her and closed the door.

Sonya had her t-shirt in her hand when she heard the door close. She paused briefly looking over at Katy standing in the room with her. Sonya wasn't surprised with that after all the little indication she picked from Katy in their conversation so far. Sonya liked the girl more and more. Not hiding her skinny body that certainly looked younger than she really was, she put on the t-shirt. "I am just a good copy of someone born here." Sonya said softly wondering how far Katy was willing to go especially that she was doing nothing to stop her. "Do you like my room?" She asked playfully with a clear double meaning in the voice. The room was of a typical teenager, with posters of Madonna, Tina Turner and even from Moonlighting TV series.

"I do and what's in it," Katy said, taking Sonya in. "And why be a copy of anything when I like what I see just fine?" She asked before she blurred and was standing in just her bra and panties, a smirk on her face as she struck a pose like she was ready to run. She wondered if she had taken things too far and it was just girls being naked with girls and nothing else. Still, she liked what she saw, skinny or not.

Sonya blinked and her mischievous grin turned wider and provocative. "Well... well." She said moving a step forward. There was clearly an approval in her tone and pose. It was quite bold what Katy did but from the first sight, there was this hard to explain bond they made. How much of what had transpired had enough depth? That was something to be tested. Sonya was far from inexperienced on the matter but she didn't want to overstep and ruin whatever they were building here. She made another step forward playfully hooking thumb in the side of her panties and pulling on it as she moved even in closer. Looking into Katy’s eyes, Sonya licked her lower lip, trying her best to distract the girl.

Sonya counted that this sensual show off would work on Katy enough. Sonya had her reflexes heightened but still was quite sure that they might not be enough for what she planned. However, she wouldn't be herself if she didn't try. Suddenly, with a nimble move she picked one of the pillows and swung it at Katy with precision of a killer, aiming for her head.

Once again, Katy couldn't help but follow the sound of the snap back to the source and admire the curve of her slim waist. When the other woman grabbed the pillow, she couldn't help and take the hit. That was a distraction well played and she was hoping for more. To further the game, she made a fast move of her own and snatched a pillow before stopping on the other side of the bed. "Oh, that's how it's going to be, huh? I see."

"Yes... so it seems. Ready to be defeated speedster?" Sonya laughed. She pointed at the pillow in Kathy's hand and winked showing her tongue. "You could grab something else if you wanted it to go differently." She said sultry trying to distract Katy again before she lunged forward at the uncanny speed with another pillow blow.

This time, the speedster was ready even though the wink and tongue was worthy for a minor effort. As the pillow approached, she stepped aside and moved in a blur, but at a tiny fraction of her speed and moved around the bed to position herself behind Sonya. With a smirk that came quite naturally to her, Katy reached out and popped the other girl on the butt with her hand, then launched the pillow at the back of her head. "Tag, you're it!"

"Ouch!" Sonya turned around to face Katy again knowing all too well that trying to hit the other girl now was a futile attempt. She already showed her Sonya her speed and unless going full combat on and trashing the room, Sonya was rather not expecting to return the favor unless Katy would let her. "I might start liking it." She rubbed her butt where she got smacked and giggled impishly. She swung her pillow again trying to hit Katy. After all, Sonya wasn't the one to give up easy when she found a worthy challenge. And she had a plan. She just needed Katy in the right spot.

Katy blurred and appeared on the other side of the room, stirring up a breeze. "Fast as fast can be, you'll never catch me," she taunted.

"That's not fair." She pouted and complained again when Katy moved out of the way again, causing some of the posters on the wall to flap a little.

She came up behind Sonya again and started to swing the pillow, then stepped around in front of her. "Duck or go through," she said with a smile. Meanwhile, the pillow was airborne from where she had been and heading for its target.

The pillow was flying on the normal speed enough to trigger all kind of reflexes and Sonya choose the one she planned for all along. The whole situation didn't play exactly as she wanted but she got her opening. Sonya lunged forward as Katy was in the middle of her sentence and tackled her down on the bed pinning her in the process. They fell down together on the soft mattress. Now, speedster or not, she was in her grasp and Sonya wasn't going to let go easily. "Got ya!" She giggled as the pillow hit her head from behind.

An oomph came from Katy as she hit the bed when Sonya tackled her. The little minx had set a trap and she had fallen for it. Literally. She looked up at the young woman and then brought her hands up to Sonya's shoulders and slid them down her sides. She brought them back up and then down again to cup her behind. "What...are you going to do...with me?" She asked, deliberately breathless.

It was all going faster than Sonya anticipated. But then having so little restrains worked all too well with Katy apparently also similarly frivolous. Sonya looked down into Katy's eyes just inches away. Was it wise? Well, Sonya always had problems with wise. "I have a few ideas." She whispered flirtatiously closing her face even more to Kathy's. "The ones on the top of the list are potentially inviting troubles... but they are very pleasant.'

"Mmhmm. Isn't that what they all say before the pain starts, or is it a long session designed to lure me into falsely trusting you to do what you will to me?" Katy asked. She couldn't back away, and she wasn't trying to push Sonya away in the least. She took note that the other woman also didn't object to the butt grab she still had going on. She gave an added squeeze to see if she was aware of it.

Sonya hardly could ignore hands on her panties, squeezing her butt and driving her thoughts in a single direction. She uttered soft moan and ground her body slightly into Katy. She was enjoying the skin touch and was trying not to melt away in the dark-haired woman's hands too fast. "Yeah..." Sonya licked her lips. Their faces were so close that she could feel other woman's breath on her skin. "I am open for all of that... and more." She teasingly stopped just short of kissing Katy.

That was all it took for Katy; the teasing was going slow and despite her natural desire to go fast, she found she was really enjoying this. She raised her head the fraction needed to press her lips against Sonya's, a thrill shooting through her and she knew neither of them was going to stop.

The bed was a mess with the blanket rolled off, the sheets wrinkled, and pillows everywhere. These all were evidence of the wild passion that was still felt in the air. Sonya was sitting on the floor, her back resting against the bed and her model-like, skinny nude form had one leg flexed so she could put an elbow on the knee and rest her head against her hand. She watched Katy's body, still feeding her sight on her after satisfying all other senses. Sonya was not going to dissect it why, how, or what will happen now. It was the moment in time when things connected and she was going to enjoy it. "Wow..." She moaned and took deep inhale. "...That was even better than I thought it would be."

Katy was sprawled without a stitch of clothing on, half on the bed and her legs dangling off the edge. She took a breath, the smell of sexual musk in the air and let it out in a long sigh. She looked over at Sonya and gave a slow, lazy smile. "I'll tell you whatever you want to know," she murmured. "Anything." She added.

Sonya giggled seeing Katy for the first time somewhat less energetic. It required some work and certainly was worth it. Every minute of it. "How did you end up here? Do you know the Professor?" She sighed. "I guess... the question is, what is your story?" The last question was soft with genuine interest.

While the main attraction had been great - better than great, really, if she was being honest with herself - the sequel, or rather the prequel, was crappy. She sighed. "It isn't a good one, and no, I didn't know him or Summer's Eve." She pushed herself up and moaned, then sat on the edge of the bed.

"I guess it started with how everyone seems to discover they're a mutant," she said softly. "Trauma. Abuse. Something horrible. I haven't heard a single story how they began with a smile and a unicorn showing up with a gift basket that our kind got to pick and choose our powers from." She sighed and looked down at the petite nude mutant and slid off the bed to join her.

"I was living with my dad," she sneered and made the title sound like pond scum. "Drunk and abusive, demanding, abrasive. Typical inner city sperm donor, ya know? I put up with it because I didn't really know where I could go for help. Cops are worthless but the System is far, far worse and young girls don't stand much chance. One day, he got really drunk, deep in the sauce."

"He was blaming me for this, that and the other, none of which I had a thing to do with and he could see that I wasn't feeling guilty or afraid enough or maybe he just wanted to get his jollies," Katy said, her voice almost flat now and void of emotions. "So he decided that turning me into his punching bag was a better option than yelling at me. He was yelling about something and pulled his fist back..." She shuddered and paused.

"Then he said he should have killed me like my mutant b-b-bit..." She couldn't say it. "Mother. He was saying that he had killed her. That's when everything got slow for me. I thought I was watching the last moments of my life. I saw him pull his fist back and saw the look in his eyes. I watched a fly freeze in the air. I heard sounds grind to a stop all around me. Then I was moving. I was moving like I was the only person on the planet capable of moving, and I moved really fast. I grabbed the only picture of the three of us that I had and I was gone...all before he could finish his swing. I never looked back."

The statement of abuse and trauma being often the trigger for mutant powers awakening struck Sonya of how true it was. She listened to Katy observing her with her green eyes carefully but also with sympathy. She changed her position, flexed her other leg to sit on the side and moved her other leg over Katy in a gesture of shielding her. She then moved closer and when Katy finished, Sonya slid her hand around Katy's neck and pulled her closer in an embrace. She used her other hand to comb gently Katy's hair before she spoke again. "I am sorry to hear that. It must have been awful. At least you are now among others like you.”

Katy took comfort in Sony's simple actions and draped an around around her shoulders and rested her other hand on her leg. "It was. Then I became a thief to survive. I used my speed to steal from armored cars, got a fake ID, rented a couple apartments and never looked back. Until Summer's Eve came knockin', blew my door off, then tried to kill me."

Sonya wrinkled her nose trying to add the facts here. Summer's Eve. She thought it was Scott Summers. Now she got a bit confused because she couldn't see him as a killer. Naah.
"Kill you? Are we talking about this handsome dude calling himself Cyclops? He is as hot as he is goody goody." Sonya said lightly. "Why would he want to kill you? Did you steal his visor?"

"Yeah, Cycunt," she said. "Scott Summers. I wouldn't answer the door, so he blew it off the hinges. When I ran, he blasted the floor out from under me without regard to who might have been above him or anything. He's a thug."

"Well, that was a bit of overkill, but I see it different." Sonya kissed Katy in the ear and then whispered. "He just didn't have a chance with you. Overkill was his only option." She paused and added with normal voice. "So, he took you to the Professor?"

"Luckly, the Professor was there and we talked," Katy said. "But overkill could have killed someone else, or even me."

"Yes. Yes it could." Sonya agreed and paused for a moment. She wasn't there so she couldn't comment on that more than that. If what Katy said were true, then Sonya would need to look at Cyclops actions carefully. "So what did the Professor said to you? How he convinced you to join?"

The other young woman got up and stretched. "He hasn't convinced me yet. Want to take a shower?"

Sonya nodded and got up as well. "Good idea." She walked and picked her towel that she dropped earlier. "Do you plan to see your father again?"

"Not unless it's to get someone to take a deuce on his grave," Katy said as she headed for the shower and turned it on. "What's your story?"

Sonya followed Katy under the shower with the towel over her shoulder. She decided to share it with her organizing them soap. She stepped close and smiled watching Katy's sexy body. "My story? I am a daughter of a Soviet superhero. However I was born as a sickly little girl. To help me, my mother organized me some experimental treatment that was meant to create badass assassins... and it worked much better than expected." Sonya flexed her skinny bicep with an amused laugh. "That also sealed my fate - I was to become a super spy... I was the best in my class." She said proudly. "In fact I was off the charts. Probably because of my daddy's super genes. So when suddenly on a mission I blew all the fuses in the building and on the next one I created a force field to protect myself and deflect machinegun burst, my bosses got a big hard on that they got themselves another super super." She took the soap and began washing Katy's back gently in contrast to her playful and energetic tone. "My mother broke me out when I was in the transport to a secret and closed facility in Siberia. She brought me here to US and decided to hide me here with the Professor while she went back to throw off the pursuit."

"Wild huh?"

"Super spy? LIke Iron Curtain and Mother Russia and goose steps and stuff like that?" Katy asked, her eyes wide. "You can make force fields and stuff, too? Wild doesn't cut it." She let the young woman wash her back and smiled. She hadn't expected this evening, but she was certainly appreciating it. "Can you ever seen your Mom again?"

Sonya stopped briefly but quickly resumed washing Kate's back. The question hit close to her heart and things Sonya didn't really want to talk about. "Sure! She will finish everything in Russian and will come back." She said confidently. "As for powers, well, I haven't created a force field since, so I wouldn't call it reliable." She giggled. "And I don't think my mother was a mutant, but who knows. She and the Professor were very quick at finding the common ground when comes to me."

"There's something special in you, mutant or not," Katy said. "And whatever it is, it's something I like. You sound so confident and sure of yourself. You have mad skills and you can turn a smile into a blush and turn that into a squeal. So be yourself, Sonya, whatever else you do, and I'll keep liking you."

"Aww... so sweet. Thank you." Sonya leaned forward and kissed Katy in the ear. "I'll do my best. I like you too Katy. I think you are the first person around I can relax with, the first person with which I found... a common ground. I appreciate you for that."

The other young woman smiled. "I like how that sounds," she said adn shivered at the kiss to her ear. "In fact, I have something better in mind." She leaned in and whispered it in Sonya's ear.
