I dream of Jeanie [Closed]

Bobby had been looking for the medlab for the better part of an hour. He was tired, irritated, and well he didn't like this ship anymore. He leaned against the wall, stopping for a moment to try to get his bad mood under control. Jean was on board the ship, and he hadn't seen her in what, a year? Two? He shook his head and took a deep breath. Pushing off the wall he started moving again.

When he found the medlab he smiled brightly and burst into the room. Looking around frantically, he wanted to see the bright red hair, the bright smile, those emerald green eyes. He felt his heart pounding in his chest even as his voice called out.

"Jean? Jeanie? Anyone seen a red head psychic around here?" He laughed a bit and continued to smile and search the medlab.

Jean swallowed and looked away. "Logan doesn't love me Bobby. He thinks he does, but he's... He's Logan. He wants what he can't have." At least that's what she told herself. It had just made it easier that way. Easier for her to deny any sort of attraction she'd had for him.

"I have to admit, I'm surprised to," she said with a small smile. "He is stubborn. He's probably down in one of the pods though."

"Maybe that's how it was in your world, but I've seen the guy when he's thinking about you. He's in love with you Jeanie. But trust me, even back on my world, if you loved him... you loved Scott more. Logan and I can bond that way." He shook his head and sighed sadly. "We just can't compete with the Summers boys."

He grins and laughs. "Well if he is still down there, he's going to be pissed when he wakes up. My senses are as enhanced, but even I knew there was a stink. He'd probably rip his own nose off."

Jean's gaze flickered away and her eyebrows furrowed. She really didn't want to hear how Logan felt about her - in any universe. It just made things harder - the way he'd felt about her, and really she just wanted some part of her life to remain easy.

But slowly a smile began to form on her lips. "Funny." He was a lot like the Bobby she knew, which was a relief. Well a lot a like, expect for the whole age thing. That was a little weird.

"I wouldn't want to be anywhere around the pod caverns when Logan comes. I can only imagine the fight he'd put up. It wouldn't be very pretty...." She trailed off and studied him for a moment before speaking again. "What's you universe like? I mean, how are things going there for mutants?"

His first thought was a snort and a short what mutants?. But he shook that off. No need to give this Jean something to worry about. It wasn't like there was anything she could do. Heck they doubted even the Phoenix could fix what had happened. Not that any of them were really willing to try that, anyways.

"About as good as they can be I guess. We got our own island nation. Scott calls it Utopia. He's basically King, or well ruler. Everyone follows him anyways. We got food, fresh water, homes, and we're protected. Because we're apart of the US none of their laws can effect us, and we're all finally together. Every mutant on the planet, well except for the few who have lives elsewhere. Like X-Factor. But Maddrox has always hated Scott." He stopped talking and frowned. "Sorry, you probably don't know who Maddrox is huh?"

"An island?" Jean repeated slowly. "Really? Why? I mean... In my universe we're trying to live peacefully among humans...." It doesn't make any sense to her, but then again the whole alternate reality thing doesn't make any sense to begin with.

"Um. No, who is Maddrox?"

"It wasn't working out with the humans. Especially when the main man in charge wanted our heads as decorations for his office." He shook his head and sighed. "Best to not think about it really. The amount of drama we had would drown someone."

He laughed a bit, trying to think of how to put who Jamie Maddrox was. "Well he's called Multiple Man. Basically he can create multiples of himself, just by clapping his hands. He's leading a team right now who are basically just detectives. They still live in New York."

"Well I can't say that's really surprising," Jean sighed. And it wasn't... The hate some humans had for mutants was unbelievable sometimes.

Her eyes widened a bit. "Well I think I'd remember meeting a man who could make multiples of himself," Jean smiled with a shake of her head. "Though could be I meet him further along my own timeline."

She suddenly smiled. "So I'm curious to know if all your powers are the same as the Bobby from my world. What all can you do?"

Bobby frowned a bit. This Jean was obviously smarter than the Jean back home, but could he trust a woman he just met with this knowledge? Even if it was a version of his sister? He shook his head and smiled.

"I can manipulate water molecules. So much so that when I focus, I can travel instantly through water ways. I could also freeze the smallest molecule in a persons brain. Not to mention my nice shiny organic ice form."

"Nice shiny organic ice form?" Jean repeated with a surprised look. "My... well the Bobby from my world doesn't have that power, or he hasn't figured out he does."

"I'm not surprised. If he's still a kid. Mine didn't happen until I was an adult. A secondary mutation. Which actually killed me." He shrugged a bit. "Hank would be able to tell you all the scientific details."

"It killed you?" Jean repeated, her forehead creasing a bit. She didn't like the sound of that, and yet... There Bobby was standing infront of her. "How exactly did it kill you?"

"Well you're a doctor. What happens when the human brain and heart freeze over completely?" He shrugged a bit. "My body was turning to ice from the inside out. So after a point, my body stopped breathing. Well actually it just stopped doing anything. Then I was found frozen in the school's kitchen. A giant block of ice, with me in the center. Not breathing. I basically died."

Intellectually, Jean knew he was right. He would have died, it would have happened. But it didn't make it any easier to hear that her Bobby might go through the same thing if he ever acquired that part of the powers.

"What happened then?"

"Well for a while afterwards I was fine. Thinks went back to normal, well as normal as they ever get for the X-Men. Then I went with Kurt to save his ass from his dad.. I was reckless and ran into a battle I shouldn't have, and well.. An exploding arrow caused my human form to shatter. Or well half a human form half ice form. When I shattered, I turned completely to ice." He frowned and rubbed at his head.

"I spent a few hours as just a head. It was a really weird thing. I could think, but I couldn't talk. And finally one of the demons came to us and I drained the liquid from their body to remake my own. But I was stuck in my ice form."

She looked over Bobby carefully before slowly nodding her head. "Well it seems that you're doing fine now. I suppose it was just a matter of learning how to control your new power. Did it take long?"

"Nah. But then again, I've been using my powers since I was a teen. It's been a long time." He shrugged a bit and frowned.
