Lorna eyed her father. "Uh... Because he's not a psychomaniac who tries to kill his own kids?? Not that I'm the Prof's kid but ANYWAY!!! Did you just threaten me??!"

After the small metal war between Magneto and this green haired girl, Who seemed to think she was related to Pietro, Wanda found herself slightly confused.
She quickly hid the confustion from her expression and her face went blank of any emotion.
Wanda looked around at all of the crushed metal objects then her gaze shot over to Magneto. If he thought she would stop that easily He must be mad.
She flung her hands out in front of herself and the chess board lifted off of the ground. It flew up a few feet into the air then shot down toward Magneto.

Pietro zipped around easily avoiding the objects occasionally tossed his way.
The speed demon glanced over at Lorna. He did remember saying the same thing to Evan a few years ago, but he'd grown up since then. Sure he still was still arrogant and he liked to brag, but Lorna was reminding Pietro of himself just a few years ago. From the way Magneto&Lorna were talking, he had gathered that she was his&Wanda's sister.
Pietro was too caught up in the confusion to realize the metal coming toward him, and soon found it crushing him and, from Magneto's words, Wanda too.
The white-haired teen sighed a breath of relief when the metal stopped, and quickly zipped over to Wanda to make sure she was okay. Polaris was babbling on about something and constantly changing subjects. Yeah, We're related Pietro thought with a slight smirk.
Magneto apologized for almost crushing them and Pietro tossed a dirty look his way before turning back to Wanda. "Are you okay?" Typically he didn't scowl at Magneto, or even voice his opinion with his father in the same room, but he'd almost killed them just to prove he was powerful. He guessed Wanda was fine when she threw another hexed object at their father.
This time Pietro didn't run to help Magneto. He thought about Lorna's earlier words, about everyone deserving a chance to live a normal day. "No, not everyone deserves a day off. He doesn't. Father, I need to speak with you." Pietro said in a strong, almost demanding, tone.

Magneto jumped away from Wanda Then looked at Pietro "what do you want Pietro"
(as you can see Lorna is Magneto's favorite he is calm and caring towards her)

Lorna stood a bit further away, watching what was happening. Somehow she had the feeling that Magneto liked her more than Pietro or Wanda. "God I'm popular..." she thought and smiled weekly, schocked.

(I figured, metal powers and all)
Pietro knew it wasn't a good time to bring it up, he knew that it would only make Wanda more angry, and he knew that his father would be very unhappy no matter when the subject was brought up.
Seeing Magneto's patience and almost caring attitude toward Lorna was confusing, if not entirely frustrating. She insulted him, she spoke back, she challenged him, and she was officially with the X-Men. While Pietro spent his entire life jumping through hoops she received his powers and instantly gained the spotlight.
"You always told me that what you'd done to Wanda was for the better, taking her out would never help, she couldn't be helped and you couldn't control her." Pietro went over all the things he could remember Magneto telling him. "If you couldn't control Wanda, and you're one of the most powerful mutants on earth, how did the Asylum people manage?" He asked, trying to keep eye contact with Magneto while at the same time fearing he'd over stepped his boundries.
"I couldn't go back and get her, according to you she wasn't ready, but I should have realized a long time ago what she finally got through my thick skull just a few days ago." He paused, his eyes angry and fearful at the same time. "You could have controlled her, and you could have trained her, but you were more focused on gaining more power than raising your own daughter. If you'd sent her to live with Xavier back then she would have learned to control herself, but you didn't want Xavier having such a powerful mutant with him, did you. Me, you were just lucky my power was only speed, but if you'd had enough time to help me out I would have realized a long time ago that I am no where near the extent of my power." He paused again feeling as if a great burden had been lifted from his shoulders, while at the same time fearing for his own life at the hands of his father.
"Here's my question. You never helped us and you sent Wanda away, is it because you couldn't help us or you simply didn't care?"

Lorna stood a bit further away, listening to their conversation. This was a part of her life she didn't even know about. Was her sister sent an asulym? Was Pietro abandoned?
The thoughts ran through her head. What had actually happened? Her childhood was not te best either. Spending it in a grungy fosterhome in New York was NOT recommended.
While listening to them talking, she couldn't control herself anymore and ran towards her father and brother. "Father, Pietro!! Why don't you just TELL me the things I still don't know?? You should tell things like that to your daughter!!"
She turned to Pietro and stared at him. "You know you can talk to me. Don't you know I'm your sister??"

"My mother would have taken care of her. Her life at the asylum was hell, and I refuse to believe both my parents are cold, callus, and power hungry." Pietro paused and glowered at his father. "Lorna, shut up. This isn't about you, and as far as I'm concerned you aren't my sister." He spat coldly. It wasn't Lorna's fault Magneto adored her so, but Pietro couldn't see how it was his fault that his father ignore him. So he didn't care.
"As for my powers, that's a lie too. My powers are ready to advance, I don't know how long they have been ready but they are. I can walk on water and-" The white-haired teen bit his tongue. "And push it to limits I never even considered." He finished, not willing to explain the whole story.
"As for that lie about my mother, if she was there why was Wanda's life a living hell? She probably cared more about Wanda and me than you ever will, no matter how hard I try." Pietro mumbled the last part as an afterthought and continued to glare at his father.

Lorna blushed furiously and hung her head. She tried not to cry, but it was so difficult. Had her own BROTHER just told her off? WHY? Polaris glared at him and wrapped a metal bench around the teen.
"Listen carefully," she began with her hands streched out in front of her, "If I wouldn't have cared for you, Id let you father kill you and Wanda only seconds ago, and you think that the entire world spinns around you, Pietro Maximoff? You know what you are? You are a spoiled, imperious little BRAT!!"
She glared at Quicksilver.
"And WHY didn't I let him kill you? Because I CARE for you. And WHY do I do THAT?" She kept eye contact with the Speedster.
"Because I'm your sister, Pietro."

Lorna unwrapped Pietro, xchanged sad looks with her father and hung her head. She started walking. Hoped she'd meet someone to talk to.
"Later, Pietro..." Polaris said in a sad, quiet tone and walked away.

Lorna didn't expect Jamie, so she kinda got a little schock. "Oh, hi, Jamie..." she greeted, whiping away her tears. "Wha-What's up...?"
Polaris looked at her shoes. She was really upset and couldn't hide it anymore. She pressed herself against Jamie in a hug, hysterically crying.
"God... He must think I'm a total SOFTIE!!" she thought. But Jamie was a good person, so she hoped that he'd understand.

"It's ok Lorna. Your man is here and I'll make that evil dad and brother of yours pay." he said in a serious tone.
