*Malefica smiled. This was not how she usually was treated. She lighted his cigarette with one of her flames, careful not to burn him.*
"Most of them, yes. But I am not like the others. You see, my father's name.... was Zeus."
*She paused, still anxious about his reaction.*

*Cry-Baby shrugged, the name unfamiliar.*
"Sorry. Never met 'im."

*Malefica was grateful that he didn't scream and run away.*
"My father Zeus was a Greek God. The Master of Olympos. He was married, but often cheated on his wife. One day she yelled at him to go to hell. And he did. In hell, he met my mother Lilith. She is a devil. That's why I am... green. But I am not evil. My mother accused me of inheriting the goodness of my father before she kicked me out. And now I don't belong anywhere."

*Cry-Baby waved his hands in front of him.*
"Whoa. Said I knew powerful people. Not sure I'm ready for Greek gods."
*But then again... he'd met War. And Pestilence. And Brandi...*
"That sucks though, about your parents. I don't have parents. Guess I feel your pain."

*Malefica laid her hand over his, afraid he would leave her.*
"Thank you. As for me, I am not a god. If anything, I am a bastard. Forgive me, but I have completely forgotten to ask your name. My name is Malefica."
*Suddenly realizing her dress was torn, she tried to cover up. A burning pain flashed through her arm, and she realized Loke had broken it during the struggle. She couldn't stop herself from whimpering in pain.*

"'M Cry-Baby Walker, m'am," *he said sincerely, and was at her side when he saw the pain on her face.*
"Your arm hurt? You need a doctor?"

"Nice to meet you, monsieur Cry-Baby Walker." *she said, and meant it. She liked this man very much already. He was so different from all the other people she had met.*
"N-No, no thanks, I'm fine." *She tried to get get up. Again an incredible pain tore her body as she tried to get on her feet. Her face getting white, she sank back to the floor, realizing Loke had broken her right ankle as well. Again she whimpered from pain.*

*Cry-Baby crouched next to her.*
"You don't look fine," *he said.* "C'mon. I'll carry you to the infirmary."
*He paused, as if waiting for her permission.*

*Malefica blushed at the thought of this handsome man carrying her. Her virgin heart started beating faster, and she lowered her eyelids, afraid to look him in the eyes.*
"Calm down Malefica!" she thought to herself. "You can't fall in love with a man you have only known for a couple of minutes. He is surely taken by someone else. And if he wasn't? Who would marry you, an ugly green-skinned bastard not wanted anywhere?"
*Again she looked up at him with tearsteamed eyes.* "Thank you," she whispered again.

*Uh oh. He recognized that look. That look that girls gave him all the time; a look he usually welcomed. But now there was Brandi and... and Kris.*
"Don't mention it," *he said a little gruffly, and rose with her in his arms.*
"Just glad I was around to kick that guy's ass."

*Malefica blushed, ashamed that she couldn't hide her feelings better. She put one arm around his neck to not fall when he carried her. Luckily for her, it wasn't the broken one :-) Afraid to look him in the eyes she hid her face against his throat. What would he be thinking if he knew? She would definitely loose his friendship, and he was the only person in the world that had ever been kind to her. She realized she had been silent for too long.*
"So am I," she answered shyly, afraid he would get angry if he found out. A terrifying thought startled her, and made her body shiver with fear. "B-but what if... what if he.... comes back?"

*She was weirdly shy, for a witch. But Cry-Baby had seen all types, and he wasn't gonna judge. Unless someone was itching for a fight, that is.*
"Then I'll kick it again," *he said grimly.* "Any idea who he was?"
((Let's go to the Infirmary!))

*SO totally did NOT disappear.*
*Xavier had watched the other man come, beat the man up, and carry her away with relief. Wasn't his responsibility, though scum like that shouldn't be allowed to walk the streets. He left.*
