Chapter 1
Laurie Shear
All my life I've never really mattered to anyone. As long as I can remember, no one really payed attention to me, or even bothered to talk to me. So, I've learned to be alone. Now it's hard to be close to anyone, really...
About 6 years ago I discovered I had mutant abilities. Of course, I always knew I was a mutant, due to the fact that my hair isn't blonde, it's literally yellow, same with my eyes. I discovered I could make lightning bolts come from my hands and shoot them at people. I can also look at non-living things, like objects or rocks, and turn them to glass. I have named my self Illusion because of this. After I discovered my mutant powers, I ran away from home and came to Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, or in other words, a school for mutants. I met the X-Men there, and I knew instantly I wanted to become one, and I'd stop at nothing to BE one.
I trained with Professor X and Jean Grey to control my mutant abilities, and soon after, I proved myself worthy of being an X-Man. I am friends with all of the X-Men, they all have accepted me for who I am. They treat me as an individual, as a normal human being, as a friend. Wolverine is my best friend of the X-Men, the first one I met, the first to accept me. I guess you could say I like him as more than 'just a friend', but of course I would never allow myself to believe it. I have only had one boyfrined, but he freaked on me because of my lightning powers.
So, from then on, I never had a boyfriend. I guess if I wanted children, or atleast a husband, I'd have to learn to trust people...

"Hey, Laurie," Scott yelled from the bottom of the staircase.
"WHAT?!" I yelled back. 'God...' I thought, 'why can't he just get off his lazy butt and come up here himself?'
"You have to come down here! I need you to take care of my class for me!" Scott hollered.
"Sure!" I leaped down the stairs and landed perfectly. I bowed for him. "How was that? I'm very talented, aren't I??"
"Modest too," Scott laughed as he walked towards the door. I headed to his class and prepared to teach the kids about motorcycles. Of course, I don't know a thing about them, so maybe I'll show them my powers again... Hehe... Scott would have a cow. Sounds good to me...
