Theme song for Silena: Truth… from the Hanaukyo Maid Team Album

Just as a note, I'll list down certain songs at Intervals for people to listen to over Youtube so they know what goes as a good theme song for certain blah blah blah blah blah…

Chapter 1: Silena


Mariel in the Capsule: Hanaukyo Maid Team Album

"We're here," said Professor Xavier kindly to the young woman standing next to him. The door leading to the garage and the X-Jet shut smoothly behind them by Logan. Both men watched the young girl as she took one step into the hallway, and then, cautiously, another. Her large, dark brown eyes, looked down both sides of the hall. All was quiet (for everyone was in school) and the only sound now audible was chirping birds and a radio playing classical music coming from Storm's office.

The young girl was petite, and a bit on the short side. She was slim, not skinny like the Cali and Roxy girls most other people classify skinny as. Her hair was an assortment of blonds, browns, and dark, dark reds, classifying her as one of the rare few "dishwater blonds". She wore a loose fitting black T-shirt, soft and washer worn, with the insignia of the cross and snake from Fullmetal Alchemist. Her baby blue jeans were torn and also washer worn, complete with a pair of black Avia tennis shoes.

She turned around to the two grown men, some tears running down her face and a happy grin on her face.

"….It's perfect," she whispered.

"Now then, for the business of getting you situated."

Professor Xavier rolled behind his desk, a manila folder in his hand with the girl's name, Silena Evenruu, printed at the top. Silena sat opposite to him while Logan chose to lean against the wall besides the door, keeping a very well trained ear out for the others that would soon be coming home from school.

"Now then, Silena, I would like for you to help me fill this out." The professor took out a pen and started asking her questions that were on the form.

"Mmmm'kay."

"How old are you?"

"15."

"What is your birthdate?"

"March 29th, 1992."

"Do you having any living relatives?"

"Yes, but they are either unwilling to take me in or incapable of doing so."

"Like your grandmother?"

"Mmhmm," Silena replied with a fairly easy smile. Logan made a gesture at the Professor over Silena's head, and soon the sound of people coming home flooded the halls. Silena blinked her large brown eyes in some confusion, "It's only 2: 50…"

"It's a Wednesday, so everyone comes home around this time," Logan said, opening the door just as Jean had her hand poised, ready to knock. "Oh…" Jean looked slightly taken aback. Then she noticed Silena and immediately understood. "I'm sorry professor, I forgot you were bringing Silena here today." Charles Xavier shook his head, wheeling from behind his desk in between Silena and Jean.

"Silena, I would like you to meet Jean Grey," said the professor, as Silena held out her hand and Jean shook it with a polite smile.

"Nice to meet you."

"Ditto."

Jean turned to Logan, "We have another problem with Toad again," said Jean with hints of agitation at the situation at hand. "What is it this time?" As the two stepped out, Silena and Xavier followed behind. As the two mutants conversed, Professor Xavier looked over to Silena with a reassuring smile. "You will like it here, I'm sure. Though some of the members of the Brotherhood are…well…"

"Pigs," growled Kitty, stomping past them and through them into her room with a growl of frustration. Jean stifled a chuckle. Silena couldn't help but ask, "What was that?"

"Kitty is dating a member of the Brotherhood, Lance, and they fight…frequently," said Jean over her shoulder as they continued to walk.

"More like every frickin' time they get home from school," grumbled Logan, his right handed claws coming with out a swnick. Jean lead them into the kitchen, where there was absolute chaos.

Silena saw a very large blond teen stuffing drumsticks one after another down his throat. A silver haired boy seemed to be in one place one minute, and another place the next, completely destroying the orderly countertop's contents with his quick hands. People were shouting, raiding the fridge, and trying to restore both chaos and order at the same time.

"QUIET!" bellowed Logan, but nothing happened. Silena looked at the Professor with some amusement, and he nodded. Stepping past Logan and Jean, Silena closed her eyes…

And sang.


Silena's song: Escaflowne Sora

Her powerful, yet sweet voice rang out, loud and clear, everything becoming hushed and silenced. No one moved or spoke, just stared. After a bit, once everything was sure to be stone silent, Silena's voice died suddenly, leaving her audience is a bit of a daze. Logan decided to be the first to speak, "Now that you kids have all snapped out of it, this is Silena, the newest addition to our little bounce party."

There were different types of hellos, some enthusiastic, other casual, and one very distinct "YO BABE!" came from the top of the fridge. Silena could only smile, as she always did no matter her mood, and nodded her head in a shy greeting. After a lecture from the Professor and Wolverine, the others went to tidying up the kitchen after their afternoon snacking.

"Let's go to the X Jet and get your things," suggested Jean, giving the younger girl a smile. Kitty was done and tagged along with them. As they walked, Kitty decided she wanted to know more about this girl, "So, your powers are really killer!" exclaimed Kitty. Silena smiled (Jean noted that the smile never touched her eyes), "Yeah, I'm still experimenting with things."

"What have you found out so far?" Silena shrugged nonchalantly. "Well…my powers usually rest within how I sing, what kind of tone I use, and the words I use. The reaction mainly comes from other people's subconscious, so…if I sing a really angry song in an angry voice, it can make other people angry. Ya know?" Kitty nodded, and Jean was pretty impressed, "Have you ever tried to control people with your powers."

Silena shook her head, smirking, "Nah. Seems to dark to me, ya know?" Idle chatter began, until Shadowcat decided to open up her big mouth and ask a (unknowingly to her or Jean) very personal question. "When did you first discover your power?"

Silena's steps faltered ever so slightly, but she kept walking, replying quietly, "The day my parents died", running a hand as calmly as she could through her hair. Kitty immediately looked sheepish, and all was quiet in a very awkward sort of way both under the sudden

"I'm so sorry," said Jean quietly, placing a hand on Silena's slim shoulder. Silena just pretended indifference and yawned. Very quietly, she hummed in her normal tone of voice ((A/N:She's humming the song Truth…)) something like a lullaby for the rest of the duration of the job of unloading some of her things into her new room.

Kitty, Jean, and Silena were the only members of the mutant household that didn't have some sort of house chore or activity to do. Most of the Brotherhood members had been involved in the kitchen disturbance, so the craziest part of the crew were out of the way. Some of the younger mutant members were requested home, as for what reason Silena had yet to find out, and Wolverine, Professor Xavier, and Storm were holed up in Xavier's office for some reason or another.

The room Silena was being moved into was the single that belonged to another girl a few months ago, who -(that's the version she got from Kitty before Kitty got a look from Jean and stopped. Probably afraid Kitty would say something stupid again, thought Silena idly). Sunlight came in through the window with shimmery curtains, a small double against the window and a dresser by the door as well as a walk in closet.

"Do you like it?" asked Jean, looking over at the smaller girl.

"I love it," smiled Silena, dropping the last suitcase she brought while Jean telepathically let two large boxes drop by the bed. "Dinner at 7," called Kitty as her and Jean left Silena to her unpacking. They had offered to help earlier, but Silena really preferred some alone time. Both understood, and left her to her own thing. With a small sigh, Silena immediately bolted and ran onto the bed, rolling onto her back with a contented sigh. Giggling cutely, Silena hugged herself, finally feeling things were going to turn out good…

"Well, someone sure is happy."

Bolting upright, the dirty blond saw a white haired boy standing in front of her with his arms crossed and a very arrogant smirk on his face.

Ending music: Thank you by Go Shiina


Well, here are some notes for all you pretty kiddies. I don't really know who I'm going to pair Silena with yet. In fact, I haven't seen the Evolution series for about 4 years!! That's around the time I started 5th or 6th grade and couldn't stay up late enough to watch it anymore. I hope I portrayed the characters with fair accuracy.

So far, the pairing crisis is between Pietro, Kurt, and Todd. I might bring in another OC or two but the storyline is still in development ((I know, I'm so bad!)) and I have no definite ideas for the new chapter. I'm the type of person that can think up plots like, in the center but never at the begining. Ya know? Help me out, please?

Love ya'll, R&R
