She stood in the Professors Office with off color eyes gazing nervously around. Why was she here? She didn't even know. All she knew was that she had sneezed, and in that instant it had all disappeared, her once reality that is. Her reality of going to school with her friends, going to concerts, being reckless, prom, her engagement. It was all over, with a sneeze, half the house was frozen and frosted the other half was slightly chard, there were chairs and tables in the air, and she could hear all the thoughts of fear around her. Her one eye instantly changed from lavender to an Icy blue. And now she stood in a room with someone she didn't know but was supposed to have a connection with. She could feel out his abilities.
"I know what you're going to say so there is no need for you to waste your breath to say it" she sighed and shifted her weight. He watched her skeptically "You believe me to be a danger to myself and others, in that, yes I believe you are correct, a mutant of my power with the lack of control of which I possess is a danger to themselves as well as society" she laughed a little.
"What triggered this?" he asked as she watched her. She was incredibly intelligent.
"A sneeze" she shook her head "You must find that amusing"
"Actually I don't, but what happened before you sneezed?" the professor asked her from his wheel chair as he leaned forward slightly.
"My boyfriend proposed to me" she started crying as the ordeal came crashing back. His thoughts of fear passed through her head again the professor handed her a tissue. She took it and dried her eyes. "My community is very anti-mutant, his father was and is the largest activist, isn't that ironic?"
"That's why you're here, it's for the best Lacey" she nodded and the door opened. Standing in the door way was Bobby. He watched her for a moment until he glimpsed the gloves on her hands.
"Professor, uhh, Storm says she needs you… downstairs" his voice shook a little.
"No need to be discreet Bobby meet Lacey Kennedy our newest student"
"Oh, hi" his voice was still shaky
"Hello" she spoke as she turned to him. It hit him like a brick, Rouge was a memory, brief and fleeting, suddenly their relationship meant nothing but for sake of appearances, all it took was her one Lavender one Blue eyed gaze.
"What are the gloves for" he asked hypnotized by her eyes.
"So I don't hurt anymore people" she pursed her full lips and looked at her shoes, "Professor I'm really tired can I just speak to you in the morning?"
"If you really want to but we're finished here for the most part. Bobby show her to the empty room next to Rouge's" Bobby nodded and left the room Lacey followed. Storm walked in after they had left.
"I thought you needed me?" the Professor inquired as he watched Storm's worried gaze.
"We did but we don't anymore it stopped" She replied as she gazed nervously out of the window.
"What stopped?"
"The Jet was spinning, and then suddenly stopped, that girl can't be good news" there was genuine concern in her eyes. She was worried about the other children.
"I know you are concerned, but she will probably gain control of her powers soon enough, she is an incredibly bright individual"
"She is also very powerful and she had almost no control, she burned Logan when he was helping her on to the black bird. I was afraid for the first time in there, afraid of another mutant" Storm leaned against the wall.
"She will gain control of her powers soon enough don't worry it will be okay"
"I hope you're right"
