Way of Life
Chapter 1:Small Beginning
A boy stepped up to the door of the Xavier Mansion, he wore old trainers, black pants which a brown tail was protruding, and a dark grey singlet. He was big in build for his age of sixteen and had brown eyes that were hidden by his messy, dark brown hair.
Knock, knock he knocked the door with his tail which began to move from side to side, thoughts running through his head, 'This is the place I think, What if they don't take me in then what?' then suddenly his mind was flooded with new painful thoughts,
'Smell the people, sweat, excitement. Someone coming, ready to attack then kill, kill, kill!"
He clasped his hands around his temples and squeezed, "Shut-up!" he shouted as the door opened,
"Are you all right?" A woman with bright red hair asked as she held a look of concern on her face,
"I'm fine, well... not really I was wondering if this is the place mutants can come and be safe?" He asked.
"Well of course! Come in, come in" she cried stepping aside and gesturing inwards, "My name is Jean grey also known as The Phoenix, what's your name?" she asked as she shook his hand,
"My name's Alex Creed" replied the boy,
Jean took a step back, eyes wide, "Your not related to Victor Creed are you?" she asked, the boy looked down at the wooden floor,
"Unfortunately yeah, he's my dad, once he found out I was born he killed my mum and I so he had no relations, but I regenerated back"
Jean gasped, "Your healing factor must be amazing, to heal yourself at that younger age"
Alex smiled, "Yeah I heal pretty fast" jean looked at him for a time, then said, "Well, welcome to the Xavier Mansion I will need to take you to the professor then we'll figure out your training and classes.
"Alex this is Professor Charles Xavier" Jean introduced as Charles arrived in his wheelchair, "A pleasure to meet you Alex" he said shaking hands.
"Now I've set out all your classes which you can receive a timetable in your dorm, but I can't arrange trainings till I know what powers you have?" explained Charles, Alex looked at him then began,
"Well, I have an extremely good healing factor, superhuman strength, a tail and." He broke off and looked back at Charles. Charles leaned forwards, "And, what is there something else?" Alex nodded and replied, "It's hard to explain"
Charles nodded then asked, "Would it be all right if I read your mind to find out what it is?" Alex nodded and stepped forward. Charles raised his hands on Alex's chest and began to read.
After a time, Charles began to move and jerk until he opened his eyes, "Well that is fascinating, please head on down to the kitchen, your probably hungry" recommended Charles, 'Jean, get the rest of the X-Men we need to talk' Charles spoke in her mind, Jean quickly nodded and headed off towards the main hall.
"Greetings X-Men, I have something of importance to speak to you about" Charles began, looking at the mutants, Iceman, Angel, Wolverine, Phoenix, Cyclops, Rogue, Shadowcat, Colossus, Storm, Gambit and Nightcrawler.
"We have a new mutant here called Alex Creed" he continued, a gasp of shock spread through the group except Logan who growled, "How the hell did Sabes get a kid" Charles shook his head
"I don't know but once Sabretooth found out he killed the mother and Alex but he managed to heal himself, but that's not the problem."
"The problem is that Alex has two minds, one is his own which he can control, the other is nothing but pure beast making him a danger to everyone else around him" another gasp went round the room.
"He is a wildcard, unpredictable, who knows when Alex's emotions or power will become too strong and the beast will surface?"
Logan gave a small chuckle, "I like the sound of this guy"
