We never fail

Katherine, Ruby, Abbie and Léla sat together in one table discussing their own important matters. While the girls were talking Abbie had her mind focused elsewhere.

"Then my father woke me up and next thing I knew we saw this man jump from roof to roof." Léla explained.

"That explains the noise I heard." Katherine revealed.

"I wish I stayed up long enough to actually witness it happen, but I had to sleep early since I was studying all night the day before."

"You were studying? You were studying for what?"

"For the controll test. I need to stay prepared for it."

Katherine sighs, "Rubes you realise that, that test only starts in four weeks time."

"Yeah, but you can never be over prepared."

"You're a special case." Léla remarked.

"So guys back onto that topic about that red alien hero everyone caught a glimpse of last night, I was thinking of naming it H2hydr0, but Cameron disagrees."

"H2hydr0 what?"

"Somebody said that the alien shoots water and I just thought calling the alien H2hydr0 would be a funny play onwards."

"That's not a play onwards."

Cameron, Andrea, and David entered the cafeteria catching the attention of the four girls. Andrea and David were stuck in their own conversation while Cameron was staring down at his phone.

Léla hides her face, "Things are so awkward... I can't even speak to him."

"You shouldn't speak to him first or speak to him at all, he was the one who left you, so-"

"-this story really intrigues me." Katherine interrupted, "From the bits and pieces I'm hearing, Cameron my brother stood you up on what I'm guessing was a date between the two of you."

"No... It was more like, he played with her heart until the last moment where he just left."

"He's been on that phone for awhile now." Léla pointed out.

"Yeah, he's trying to get hold of his friend; Aiden." Ruby and Léla's eyes widened while Abbie perked her head up, "Apparently the guy is ignoring his calls and text messages. They usually hangout every sunday, but I guess-"

"-Aiden's missing?" Abbie raised a question.

"Yeah."

Abbie stood up and walked over to Cameron. Katherine looked at the girls confused.

"Hey Katherine."

"What's up?"

"Did you know?"

"What?"

"Aiden and Abbie use to date!" Ruby exclaimed.

"Wait what?!" Katherine jumped.

Celec parked her car in the parking lot before leaving and locking it. She made her way into the store when she felt a strange energy in the area. She shook her head and continued onwards.

The reflection of two men standing besides one another reflected in one of the car windows.

Celec continued walking through the store searching for her groceries. The young mother turned around almost knocking into an old women who was behind her.

"Watch where you're going lady."

"I'm sorry..." Celec apologised, sounding as if she was holding herself back. "I didn't see you there mam. Do you need any help?"

"No! I don't need help from anyone, you can't trust people in this damn tow-."

"-Okay bitch! I don't want to disagree with your claims since you're so wise and I'm sure you've lived a damn millenium, but I grew up here, and everyone in this town is like family to me now, therefore I can trust them, but you madam I have never seen you in this town. So you can take your jackass claims and jackass attitude and shove it-"

"-Oh you have a big mouth for a black-" The old lady paused while staring at something.

Celec turned around and nobody stood behind her. She turned back to the old lady who in a simple blink of an eye sprinted away.

"Well fuck you two." Celec said shoving middle finger in the direction the old lady ran off in.

The masked person sat on her throne watching the cloaked people walk around and do work inside the structure they resided in.

"Now how many people is that?" The masked person asked.

The cloaked masked person that Cameron, Katherine and Willow ran into kneeled down as he answered. "Forty."

"That's a decent amount. Now what about the first transformation serum?"

"It's in progress, but don't stress though, because when the main machine is powered up everyone will be one of us."

"That is the idea."

"Though I have one small concern. The machine has raised some questions, now we're not saying it's a bad idea it's just that we're not sure if it will do exactly what's intended."

"What are you trying to say?"

"We used certain substances to build the foundation of the transformation serum, but the things the machine needs are far from the substances we used. It's build doesn't even make sense-"

"-don't worry. I'll do the worrying. The machine works, the person that gave me the blueprints is a very liable source so trust me when I say it works.... Soon we'll be leaving in a world where mutants will be free from this sarcastic racist society."

"Yes my mask. I'll leave the the worrying to you. I will focus on the creation of the large bug mutants I promise."

"Good. Nothing should make on of you worry, we will complete our goal... We're the Cult after all."

Meanwhile, Xylene was seated on a wooden chair in a room that contained a large circular sphere and a machine that had a bunch of tapes surrounding the curtain it was hidden behind, there were also a bunch of people behind the curtain working on the machine. In the middle of the room Nikki was busy throwing knifes at a dot board.

"Did you see that Xy-Xy! Did you see that?! I threw the knife in the same place not once Xy, no, no, TWICE!"

"Great job Nikki."

"Auwww, you sound upset... Watch me cheer you up by breaking that glass."

"You can try your best, but be careful."

"C'mon Xy-xy... You know me~ I'm never careful!"

Nikki threw the knife at the glass sphere only for the knife to bounce back from sphere and straight into Nikki's right arm.

"FUCK!" She exclaimed while laughing in pain.

"I told you."

"I didn't know it would bounce back." Nikki said before wincing in pain while she pulled the knife out of her arm and raised it into the sky where she opened her mouth allowing some of the blood from the knife to drip into her mouth. "Mmmmm~ Worth it though."

One of the men popped their heads out of the curtain to check why this crazy girl was laughing so loud.

"What? What?! What bitch?! You have a problem?! Is there something on my face that is so FUCKING attention grabbing that you have to pull your head out and look at it?! Y-"

"-Nikki!"

"Whah? He knows I'm joking." Nikki winked at the person which made them quickly pull their head back into the curtain.

"Oh my god Nikki."

"Sooo~ why u upset?"

"I'm not upset, I'm a bit skeptic. It's just that I don't know if he's gonna be able to capture her by himself."

"Whatcha yah mean? He seemed well beyond prepared to do it."

"True, but before that he was kinda cautious about this whole thing, especially when I said who he is supposed to get."

"Nah he'll be fine yah know."

"I hope you're right. If we succeed in this mother will be super proud of us."

"Less work for her the happier she is yah know. Plus we're definitely gonna succeed-"

"-cause we're the Cult..."
