Disclaimer: Marvel owns these people, except Rachel. I made her up. And Shalimar is owned by the TV show Mutant X. This is meant to take place if there never were any movies, even though I posted this in the X-Men movie section, I only did that because I wish for it to have the people from the movies, but more. So key things that happen in X2, most likely will not happen in this. So its just my own thing.
Mutation.
Not a term one usually hears, unles they have it.
No one believed they existed.
Until the special professors, scientists, and the military stepped in.
They researched it for years, until they could prove there are extra genes in some people.
A very powerful mutant, he made a school in New York for mutants to live in and be safe.
But happens to the mutants who dont know they are mutants yet?
What if they dont have access to New York?
This is their story.

It was a rainy day in Dixon, Illinois. Rachel was in gym class, with her best friend, Anne.
"Run for two minutes!" Their gym teacher, Mr. Empen yelled to the class.
"Hey, what are you doing after school today?" Anne asked Rachel, as they began to run.
"Not much..." She muttered. She stopped, and wavered a bit, as if she were about to fall over. At the same moment, the lights all flickered on and off.
[thats odd, it didnt even thunder or lightning...] Anne thought. "Are you okay?" She asked, grabbing Rachel by her arm.
"Fine..just a bit dizzy, I guess." Rachel replied, rubbing her temples.
"Come on, I will help you to the Nurse's Office." Anne said. They walked out into the hall, and were almost there.
"Oh, you know what? Im Nurse Monitor this class period, so I can take her the rest of the way. You can just go back to class if you'd like." A woman said. She was black, and looked pretty young, but oddly had white hair.
"Um...okay, hope you feel better, Rach...see ya later!" Anne said, grinning, and leaving back for the gym.
"Im Ororo." The woman said, smiling.
"Um...hi...Im Rachel." She said, shifting uncomfortably. They walked to the Nurse's Office, and walked in.
"They got here first..." Ororo whispered to herself. Rachel was close enough to hear. She looked over to the Nurse's desk to see a man with a suit, sunglasses, and a briefcase. Another man was standing at the file cabinet, looking through student's files.
"Where are the normal two nurses?" Rachel asked.
"On vacation." One of the men said monotonously.
"What are your names?" Asked the one with the files. [Thats strange, didnt Ororo tell me she was their monitor? Why dont they know her name, then?] Rachel wondered.
"I am a substitute teacher here." Ororo lied.
"Really.....Miss.....?" The one at the desk asked.
"Munroe. Miss Ororo Munroe." She said.
"And you?" The man at the desk asked, facing Rachel.
"Rachel Keller." She said, raising an eyebrow.
"Alright....Miss Keller, if you would just relax, we need a blood sample." The one with the files said.
"What? Why?" Rachel asked them, frowning.
"It is just a new test that everyone who comes in here is required to take." The guy at the desk said quickly. He grabbed a needle, and pricked her finger. He squeezed her blood into a small machine thing, almost like a diabetes blood sugar level measurer. The other man looked at a list he had in his hands, while the man at the desk waited for her blood results.
"You said your name is Ororo Munroe?" The one with the file asked. She nodded. The machine beeped, indicating the results.
"Ahhh, very good." The man at the desk muttered, smirking. He typed something on his computer, and hit the "send" button. "All is done....we did well today, two in one hour, correct?" He asked the other guy.
"Yeah, thats right." The man with the file said, smirking back as he wrote Rachel's name on the file list he had.
"Two?" Ororo questioned.
"Im afraid you two will be taken into custody. You see, mutants are very dangerous, and we are currently learning how to take away their powers, even if it means killing them...." He said, holding up a type of gun.
"Dont worry yourselves, the bullets only stun." The one with the files said, yanking out one of his own. They aimed at the two girls when a loud bang of thunder echoed outside. Rachel glanced outside. It looked as if there was about to be a tornado. She looked at Ororo. Her pupils were gone, and her eyes were now all white. The window burst behind them from the wind force, and large, hard, chunks of hail shot it, and began to shoot at the two men. Rachel put her hands together, and her hair was sticking out from static. She grabbed one of the men and released the electricity. He fell over, steaming. Ororo made lightning shoot through the window, which electrocuted the other man. He fell over as well.
"People usually call me Storm." Ororo said, smiling. Her eyes turned normal.
"Im usually known as Rachel, but there are few who call me Statika." Rachel said.
"Thats why I lied about being Nurse Monitor and Teacher. My leader, Charles Xavier, heard the military was coming here to capture mutants. Its happening only in a few places for now, thank God. So far me and my fellow mutants have gotten you, and a girl a little older than you named Shalimar. The oldest and bravest students at Professor Charles Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters make up the X-Men. Im included in them, and thats who came with me. We should get to the jet." Storm said, explaining quickly. She grabbed all of the files the two men had, and the machine they tested the blood in. They left the school, and the jet blasted off.
* * *
Rachel wandered into the main part of the jet, which contained 5 other people, Storm included. She took a seat next to a tall, slender girl, with very long, pointy nails. She had pointed ears, and sharp teeth. She also was in a black suit that was skin tight.
"Hello! Im Shalimar Fox!" She said, shaking Rachel's hand. A small spark emitted from Rachel's hand. "Ow!" Shalimar said, rubbing her hand.
"Sorry....that happens sometimes. Im Rachel Keller." She said, smiling.
"If your wondering...Im a Feral....a cat-person." Shalimar said, noticing Rachel had been eyeing her tail.
"Oh! Okay!" Rachel said, laughing.
"Hello, I am Scott Summers. People usually call me Cyclops." A guy with a visor said, grinning from across the jet.
"Im Logan. Or Wolverine. Whatever." A guy grumbled, then continued staring off into his own world.
"And Im Jean Grey, nice to meet you, Rachel!" Jean said, from up in the piloting area with Storm.
"Oh my God." Scott said. He was looking at the list that they had written Rachel's name on. She wandered over.
"What is it?" Rachel asked.
"They are after us all." Scott muttered. Rachel leaned over and looked. He was looking at a page labled "Mutant X192-Summers, Scott". Rachel sat down, and read on. It said:
Mutant X192- Summer, Scott
Emits optic blasts from eyeballs. Very dangerous.
Should be considered armed and dangerous. Do not attempt to take off visors.
Should be shot with stunner and taken into military custody if sighted.
He flipped the page and sighed. It said:
Mutant X193- Grey, Jean
Uses telekinesis to move any objects, also is rumored to enter people's minds.
Should be considered armed and dangerous. Do not attempt to approach.
Should be shot with stunner and taken into military custody if sighted.
He continued flipping. The list went one. Not only did it have the four adults in the jet in it, but it also had Mutants even the X-Men hadnt heard of.
"Jean, heres an example of one we havent heard of.
Mutant X209- Braddock, Elisabeth
Has telepathy, travels through shadows, immobilizes anyone she focuses all her mind power on.
Should be considered armed and dangerous. Do not attempt to approach.
Should be shot with stunner and taken into military custody if sighted." Scott read.
"We need to show the Professor as soon as we return." Jean said.
"As poweful as he is, with knowing every mutant, and being able to connect with them, I bet he doesnt know this much information. By the looks of the file you have there, theres at least one hundred mutants listed in it, and theres still a whole stack of them next to you." Wolverine said.
"This is the chance the Professor needs to get more mutants to help us fight against the Brotherhood, and help prove to the Human World that we arent made to dominate." Storm said. Rachel and Shalimar kept reading the different files. Rachel glanced over to another folder. It was labled "Injections". She opened it up. The first file said:
Mutant X314- Keller, Rachel
5/13/03- Injected. In a few days it should start working.
Munroe, Ororo (Mutant X191) has her.
Most guessed place where she will be: Westchester New York.
Building: Charles Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters "Mutant School" (Refer to image F3).
She flipped the page over, and it said:
Image F3: Weschester, New York. It also showed a picture of a building. She gasped.
"Scott, is this the place we are heading to?" Rachel asked him, showing him the picture. He grabbed the file, and read the pages.
"It lists every single mutant 'injected', by what, who knows. It also lists who attends the school. Oh God." He breathed, "They know everything about us."
"Lets go faster." Jean said. Storm nodded, and her eyes turned white as the wind made the jet shoot faster.
* * *
"We will try to get these Mutants free." The Professor said finally. He had been reading all of the files for qutie a long time. They had arrived back at the school over an hour ago.
"And Professor, what about the Mutants with these 'injections'?" Scott asked.
"Jean, will you figure that out?" Professor Xavier asked. She nodded. "Rachel, go with her, since it says you got an injection. Jean, take some blood, and test it. Scott, find out what that machine they used for the blood does. Hmmm..Logan and Shalimar, go through the files and sort through them. Bring me any that say if the Mutant is currently in custody. And Storm, Id like you to round up the students. Tell them what we know for now, and when the files have been sorted, five them the file on themselves." He said. They all left to do their tasks. The Professor wheeled to Cerebro. "How did you find us...." He whispered to himself as he made his way.
