The entire Institute was excited. They were getting a new student today. The doorbell rang out. Jean grabbed her boyfriend's hand. "Come on Scott. As the oldest students, we should give our new recruit a warm welcome." They walked to the front door and opened it. They both stared for a moment. They had been expecting a happy teen, ready to move in. This was not what they were expecting.
The boy standing there looked barely 13. He was small and skinny. He also was apparently Native American, from what they could see. He wore a knee length trench coat, a blue tee shirt, black leather pants, and black combat boots. He also wore shades, a blue baseball hat, and fingerless blue gloves.
He also looked extremely ticked off.
Jean blinked, confused. She then smiled at the boy. Maybe he just looked dangerous? "Hello. Skylar Black, I'm guessing?"
Skylar nodded. "Most people call me Sky." He had an oddly high pitched voice for a boy.
Scott looked uneasy. "Well Sky, I'm Scott Summers, and this is my girlfriend, Jean Gray. However, you will soon know me as Cyclopes. I'm the X-men's field leader."
Sky snorted "I think I'll pass at the last one. I don't need a leader. I go on my own."
Scott took an instant dislike to Sky. "You shouldn't talk to me like that, especially because you're, what, 12?"
"I'm 14, you dolt. I also probably could kick your ass in a fight, so shut your trap!"Sky yelled, obviously ticked about the age comment.
Ororo stuck her head in. "Did I hear yelling? Oh Skylar, you're here! Welcome to the Xavier Institute. I'm Ororo Monroe, one of the teachers here."
"Don't worry, I already got a greeting from Shades here." Sky pointed at Scott.
Ororo mouthed Shades? to Scott, who shrugged. They then heard a telepathic voice speaking. ' Hello Skylar, welcome to your new home. Jean, Scott, please show Skylar to his room.
Jean sighed. This was going to be interesting. "Well, come on Sky, we'll show you around." She waited for a sarcastic comment and was not disappointed. "I can show myself around."
He then walked off without a backwards glance.

Sky was lost and confused. "I should have asked those older kids for directions." He thought out loud. "I don't even know were my room is. Nice going Sky."
He then almost got run over. "What the-" A gazillion Jamie clones ran by, followed by the rest of the New Recruits. Everyone was carrying paintball guns, and everyone had paint on them. Sky could only stare.
Roberto, who was first in line, noticed him and came to a sudden stop. Everyone crashed into him, causing a huge pile-up, bruises, a hole in the wall, and even more Jamies. Bobby was the first to distangle himself from the mess. "Hey, you're the new kid the Professor was talking about!"
Sky gave him a nod. "My name is Sky Black."
Bobby grinned and said, "I'm Bobby Drake. That's Sam, Roberto, Jubilee, Tabitha, Alex, Rahne, Amara, Ray, and all of those are Jamie." He pointed to each one as he said their name.
All the New Recruits distangled themselves from each other and said a quick greeting to him. Sky didn't say much, being obviously uncomfortable. He noticed Amara was looking at him weird. "What?" Sky asked sharply.
"Nothing, it's just you look like the other girl, the one who arrived a couple of days ago."
Ray looked him up and down. "You're right, he does. And they have the same last name."
"Must be a coincidence." Sky said. "I don't have any living relatives."
"What about your parents?" Bobby asked.
Sky glared at him and said harshly, "That's none of your business."
There was a small, awkward silence; then several of the Jamies shot Alex with their paintball guns. The fight resumed. Everyone ran off, but Sky grabbed Bobby on the shoulder. "Hey, do you know were my room is?"
Bobby nodded. "Turn left, Last door on the hallway."
Sky walked away, and entered his room. It was medium sized, sparsely decorated, and had a bed with a nightstand on it. Sky flopped onto the bed. "I can finally relax. Glad I don't have a roommate."
He glanced in the mirror hanging on the wall. "I'm not gonna last very long here. I don't last long anywhere." He took off his hat and glasses and set them on the counter. "At least here, I don't have to hide." Sky had vivid blue highlights in his short black hair, too bright to be dyed. His eyes were the same color.
"I guess I'm going to stay here longer than some of the others. Those other kids seemed okay, especially Booby. Maybe I'll stay put for once." Sky snorted. "Probably not. I never stay in one place for a long time."
Sky got up, tossed off his trench coat, and spread open his wings. He smiled as her ruffled his feathers. Then the door swung open. Sky jumped and whirled around.
"Bobby, there's a amazing new thing around. It's called knocking."
"Whoa!" Bobby said. "You have wings! And they're blue!"
"Whoa! You have hair! And it's brown!" Sky said in almost perfect imitation of Bobby.
"Sorry, you surprised me. Guess that explains why you were covering up?" Bobby asked.
"I like my outfit. Unless it's 100 degree weather, which is what it's like in Vegas."
"You're from Vegas? Cool!" Bobby walked into the room.
"Now, I'm here to explain some things to you. First, breakfast is at eight, dinner is at six, and lunch is whenever you want to get it. The kitchen is on the first floor and really easy to find. Second, never tick of Mr. Logan, Laura, or Rouge. You'll see what I mean when you meet them. Third, Danger room sessions are at seven, except on Sunday. There are no sessions on Sunday. There are other times for sessions, I'll show you the schedule later. Fourth, well, that's supposed to be 'be nice to your roommate', but you don't have one. Fifth, there are two bathrooms, one at each end of the hall. Whatever you do, don't take a shower tomorrow. You'll turn orange. Trust me on this. Any questions?"
Sky had about a million, but he shook his head. "None, now get out of my room."
"You're welcome!" Bobby called over his shoulder.
Sky glanced at the clock. 'An hour till dinner. Better give myself a tour.' He tucked his wings close to his back and threw his trench-coat on. He walked out of his room and through the the Institute, familiarizing himself with the layout.
He then crashed into someone. "Sorry." The girl said. Sky looked at her, and his brain fizzled out. 'No way.' He thought. 'How is this possible?'
"Sky?"
"Indy?"
Oh boy. They know each other. I think I've left enough clues for you to figure out how. Thanks for reading!
