Training

Nate POV:

About a 3 years, had passed and I had learnt alot, I had near perfect control over my psionic abilities, I had also discovered new abilities such as Energy projection, intangibility and one of the coolest powers I had obtained, astral projection. Even though I had gained these powers, I was still weak compared to what I had read in the comics.

With astral projection, I had managed to explore the facility I was being held in aswell as some other people like Hank Mckoy, who in this universe was known as 'dark beast' instead of 'Beast'. I had also, seen the outside world. I saw that the entirety of North America, was completely in Apocalypse's control.

Before I could venture any further, I sensed someone coming towards the room I was currently in as for some reason, every now and then Mr Sinister would move me from room to room. It's possible that, he has suspected me of analysing the room I was in looking for any signs of freedom and escape.

I had gotten use to the routine, of Mr Sinister taking me to a lab to test my abilities, and run tests on me. I dreaded this, I mean what was stopping him from replacing me? The minute he'd see a flaw, I feared that he would just kill me and clone me.

He would leave me in a room, with a object that seemed to increase in size every time he led me to this room, as I had successfully lifted them up with telekinesis. However, today was different. In the room today, there was a woman strapped to a chair unconsciousness. She had, pale skin and a black blob around here left eye. This was non other than Domino.

I looked towards the window looking at Mr Sinister wondering what he wanted me to do.

Mr Sinister: Child, the women in front of you, is an agent who goes by the name of Domino. I have gained some files, telling me all about here but now, I want you to search her mind and see all her plans regarding this facility.

Nate POV

Damn it! I mentally shouted to myself, though I was planning of leaving this timeline there were still some innocent people within the world, and if I were to tell him the information that I gained from here, it could also affect my plans of escape. Reluctantly I placed my hands on her head, and began to focus on her desires.

I now found myself, inside her head with many memories and events, displayed right in front of me. I saw everything, from her encounters with Deadpool to Apocalypses arrival. I then saw her, going on missions to gain pieces of information, about Sinister. Once I had seen enough, I left her mind and made my way towards the door.

I waited as the door slowly opened, to now reveal Sinister with his arms folded waiting for my results. Without wasting time, I sent him a telepathic view of what I had seen inside her mind. After a few minutes, he moved out of the way signalling for me to go back to my room.

I walked down through the hallway and made it back to my room, making sure to lock the door. Today, I was going to try to manipulate energy instead of projecting it. I sat down in a crossed legged position, and then began to try to manipulate the energy around me. At first, I could only create a small ball of golden energy, but now it was a swirling mass.

I could control it's fire power and size, but not it's shape I wanted to try and create energy constructs like Hal Jordan could with his green lantern ring. I slowly, my energies swirl around my arm and as it reached my elbow I then began to, release more amounts of psionic energy as I needed to have a clear image of a gauntlet, and for that I need a clear and focused mind.

It slowly, began to take the shape of a gauntlet, sometimes it would go array but in situations like that all I needed to do was apply more effort and then the problem, would fix itself.

After a few hours of hard work, I had finally done it. Looking at my arm, reminded me of the mutant known as armour as she could do something similar to this. It would soon be time for me to return, to my pod. Every now and then he would place me inside of it, and put me in a state of suspended animation, and then awake me after a few months.

Before that, there was one last thing I needed to do, to secure my escape. I needed a way out of this world. In the movies, Kitty was able to send the consciousness of others throughout time. I should be able to do the same thing right?

I now, stood up and began to release huge amounts of psionic energy, but this time on a molecular level. I would have to grasp the strands of the universe itself and manipulate it's temporal energy, I stayed like that for a few hours. Every time I tried to manipulate time, my body would be crushed by an overwhelming force. This was no surprise as I still had a weak body.

There was only one solution. After, being let out of my pod in the future I would have to attempt to escape then as my body, should be strong and mature enough. I once again sensed Sinister coming closer and closer, usually I would dread this feeling but now I felt at ease, as it was my ticket to freedom.

He opened the door, waiting for me to move as we had already been over this many times. He lead me through the hallways until we reached a room, with a containment pod in the middle. It opened up as I stepped into it, and then watched as it began to fill up with a liquid. The next time, i'd be awoken, would be the day I escape.
