Thursday
AN- This is a story I wrote while on holiday in Ireland. I couldn't charge my computer at the 200 year old forge I was staying in so I had to save the battery until I got to Scotland. This is about a young feral mutant who was attending college outside of Xavier's institute. She wanted to be an X-man but . If I write about her hair or nails growing really fast or something like that it's because her mutation is more skewed toward healing-regenerating-than toward heightened senses.
Oh, and I was reading Bridget Jones so I decided to make this in diary entries.
Review! Tell me what you think, give me feedback, correct my errors, just tell me you read it!
Thursday
Professor Xavier called. Was a bit odd having my old principle-type-person call me when I'm in college but w/e, it was nice to hear from him.
Weird though; he asked, and this isn't a quote, if I could do a huge favour for him. He wants me to come in this weekend, he said he didn't want to go into it over the phone.
Makes me a little nervous, I mean if he'd just wanted a baby-sitter…but then again, I just graduated, no one'd take me seriously.
Guess I'll just have to wait for the weekend, maybe I can get Xavier to help me w/my English paper…hee hee.
Friday
Xavier asked if it'd be ok if he sent Scott to pick me up.
I told him that was fine; I wonder why he can't wait for me to drive up tomorrow instead?
Later
Well, I've over packed my over-night bag as usual. I feel stupid for not asking how long I'd be back at school. Hmm..I need to cut my hair again-2nd time this week, you know, sometimes this mutation of mine can be so annoying :P
Saturday
When we finally got there-poor Scott needs a vacation btw- Xavier had a very important phone call so I just took his mind telegraphed advice and went up to bed. This whole getting here early thing was pointless. Oh well.
I'm supposed to talk w/him after breakfast, which is, as usual, at 9 because it's Saturday. Man it's so weird being back at school! I know I left kinda early, most of 'Xavier's youngsters' stay on longer than average and then they do their college stuff here a lot of the time too. Seeing all of my friends here again is so strange and nostalgic… Syrin's had her braces removed and is finally letting her hair be curly- she looks good that way. Rogue and Bobby are still together but it seems a little strained. Pietr went on to art school in the area but comes back most weekends…Everything's just like it was…
Well not really. Jean's gone and Scott's devastated. He was hardly his usual boyishly charming fearless leader self on the ride over. And Logan's weird too. Course he's always weird- or gone.
And I know it may sound selfish but, the worst part is that John's not here.
It's not like we got on great. Ok so we did. Even though he's stupid and an ass, I really enjoyed hanging out w/him and helping to plan his pranks so they were less hazardous and more hilarious.
I feel…Melancholy. Or something…Wistfully nostalgic…Idk.
I'm off to have breakfast.
Oh Shit!! Who am I gonna sit w/now?! Ahgh! Damnit stupid John!!
Saturday Night
Ok, so meeting w/Xavier was scarier than shit!
Going into Xavier's study is still like getting sent to the principal's office. And worse than that, when I went in it was like an intervention only w/all of my teachers there looking somber and serious.
'Holy Shit' I thought because I didn't want to cuss in front of Xavier-too late.
"Who died?" I asked, then felt bad because Scott was also in the room.
Xavier said no one and I looked over at Logan whom I'd expected to be hiding a smile.
Nope. Nada, nothing. Still serious. Hmm.
So I took the proffered chair feeling quite anxious…And heard him out.
-I gotta take a break.
Later again–Really late.
So here's the deal. Things are looking bad, the world over, on the Mutant's rights issue. Xavier wants to have a different kind of relationship w/the Brotherhood. He's finally got the picture that they won't refrain from doing what they deem necessary, but he wants a more open relationship.
He called a meeting w/the X-Men and they talked it all out. Apparently my name came up.
Of course they don't want to put me in any danger, but it seems that John has a rather elevated position w/in the ranks and because we were best friends before he left, I would, logically, in theory, have the best chance of being the go between.
Great.
