Professor Xavier had informed the X-men that he had found a new mutant. A young man who had the ability to speed up the aging process in organisms . Cyclops, Jean Grey, Wolverine, Colossus, Storm and the teams youngest member, Kitty Pryde were dispatched to go retrieve the boy before he caused any harm. Unfortunately it appeared they were already too late. The small suburb the boy lived in was desolate with withered trees and yellow dry grass instead of crisp clean lawns. Incredibly old men and women stumbled down the street and in their houses, moaning and looking disoriented.
“Yikes did all of these geezers used to be young people like us?” Kitty asked looking around in concern.
“It looks like the boys powers are effecting everything around him. We need to keep a safe distance while we consider how we are going to proceed.” Cyclops ordered the team, hanging clearly on the line beyond where the area of effect was taking place.
“I’ve got a healing factor. I’ll go in and take the boy out quickly.” Wolverine offered solemnly.
“No Logan, we need to try and rescue the young mutant alive.” Storm told him.
“The boy is in the third house on the left. He’s scared!” Jean announce, reaching out to the boy telepathically.
“We’ve got to do something!” Kitty said with concern. She grabbed a power dampening collar that the x-men had kept from their Genosha adventure.
“Kitty wait!!” Hollered Cyclops as he watched the teenage girl phase intangibly.
“It’s okay! If he can’t touch me, he can’t age me!” Kitty said brightly.
“Katya no!!” Colossus yelled as he watched the silhouette of his girlfriend run toward the house.
What Kitty didn’t realize was that the power was airborne. So intangible or not the mutants power began working on her. Once she reached the house she was already 50 years old. Her brown hair was streaked with gray and her body had spread and softened as she gained weight in middle age. Her cheeks sloped to jowls and her skin lost its elasticity and began to bunch. She was retirement age once she found the boy, only a year or two younger than her. He was curled up in a ball on the floor while what seemed to be his parents and sister were incredibly old withered husks of themselves sitting on the couch in a daze. Unfortunately for Kitty the process began to speed up now being in such close proximity to the boy.
“Don’t worry. I’m Kitty Pryde. I’m one of the X-men. I’m here to help y-“ She began to say and noticed that her voice was now rattling. She brought her hand up to her throat and felt the loose dangling skin of her neck.
“Quick put this on!” She yelled tossing him the collar.
He did so but the damage was already done. Kitty Pryde phased solid again and collapsed to the ground a feeble 100 year old woman. The young man carried her withered body back to her friends who were shocked that their spunky teenage ‘shadowcat’ was now this frail, incredibly wrinkled centenarian. Her pretty brown hair, pulled back in a ponytail was now thin and white. Colossus took his aged girlfriend into his arms to carry her back on the plane. He brushed a finger across her wrinkled cheek remembering how bright and rosy they had been just a little while ago. He sat her in a seat, her uniform now bagged around her shriveled body but her sagging chest was obvious.
“Peter?” She asked squinting her eyes to see him.
“Katya? Are you all right?” He asked her hoping she wasn’t in a lot of pain.
Kitty Pryde wet her thin pruned lips. “I remember a Peter when I was a young girl. He was so handsome. A man made of metal!” She said her mind wandering. Wolverine shook his head in sadness. “It should’ve been me kid. It should’ve been me.”
Back at the mansion Beast didn’t have any good news.
“There is no cure for old age. So barring a discovery of the fountain of youth or our new mutant tapping into his recently acquired powers in a way that reverses the process, I do not see anything we can do for Miss Pryde other than making her golden years comfortable.” He said solemnly.
Professor X and the X-men all hung their heads sadly. Nightcrawler was pushing the wheelchair that the frail form of Katherine Pryde now sat in. He leaned over to the old woman and whispered. “Fair not kitten. With the X-men nothing is impossible. We will find a way of reversing your aged state even if we must find a way to manipulate time itself!”
“Eh? What?” Kitty asked him holding a shaking hand to her ear.
Over the following days and months the team had gotten used to the X-Granny wheeling through the halls. Kitty seemed to have become senile and didn’t seem to ever realize that she was supposed to be a bright young teenager. She wheeled herself around, occasionally phasing through walls with her chair and startling people. Other times she seemingly had less control of her powers only phasing portions of her body, like when a pair of disembodied hands floated down the second floor hallway; or phasing parts of her clothing like when the New Mutants Bobby and Sam were greeted by a topless 100 year old woman wheeling toward them because Kitty had phased her shirt off. Eventually the X-Men were able to restore Kitty to her rightful young age but not before other members of the team joined her in early retirement. But those are both stories for another time.

Nicely done Chrono. I was actually waiting for people to get the rest of the 19 votes characters up there. Now there's only 2 more spots open before this round is over. I would also suggest to everyone that you make up a bio for each character on the list and if you get the 20th vote, you'll already have the bio down for the character. Plus, if the character doesn't make the ranking for the round (or if they do) that you have the bio written down, you can use it when the character comes back up in later rounds.

"What am I getting myself into?" Diana thought to herself. She had received a distress signal from Martian Manhunter earlier in the day. The Justice League had stayed in Metropolis while Diana left to attend to matters with her people. In her absence, a ravenous foe named Parasite had made his way through the city. Draining people of their energy as he went, he eventually made short work of the Justice League leaving them frail, gray husks of their former selves. "I have to keep my guard up and keep his hands off," Diana said to herself.
"BUT WHAT IS THE FUN IN THAT?"
Quickly she turned around and found herself staring into a tall, purple mass. "How is he that fas-"
Before she could even finish her thought, or reach for her sword, his massive hands gripped her like a vice. She was caught. Suddenly, she felt a surge go through her, starting at her arms where she was being held. The wave then quickly moved throughout her body. The sudden jolt soon turned into a draining feeling accompanied by a glow emitting from the monster's hands. Diana suddenly felt weaker and weaker with the passing seconds. She looked down at her hands, now withered; the tops of her hands showed numerous blemishes and veins, her nails becoming discolored and ragged. Parasite soon released his grip, dropping Diana to the ground.
Diana's sword fell from her hip from the collision, landing beside her. In the metal of the blade, she made a shocking discovery. Her once black hair was now perfectly white. Her vivacious face showed countless wrinkles and creases, her eyes nowhere near as vibrant as they one were.
The rest of her body now showed the ill effects as well. Her suit now barely clung to her frail and withered body. Through the wrinkles on her legs and arms, details of bone could be seen; her breasts were now lifeless bags of skin. Her boots were even now too large to stay on her withered and gnarled feet. Diana was now simply too weak to combat the evil Parasite. "Hey, freak show!"
Diana looked upward and saw a familiar blue and red suit approaching the ground. Supergirl landed with a thud behind the Parasite and quickly approached the foe. Diana raised her frail hand, trying to muster a note of caution; however, it was too late. Before finally fainting from exhaustion, all Diana could see was a familiar glow from Parasite's hands as he grabbed Supergirl around her throat.
Kinda quickly put together and, yes I know: this isn't exactly DC lore. Let's get this thread back going!
