"I refuse to let that thing live here"
"Michael she's your daughter"
"That's not my daughter anymore it's a monster"
I sat atop the stairs quietly listening to my parents argue, this morning I was just your average 12 year old girl and in less than 24 hours that all changed when I found I was a freak, a weirdo, a monster; in less than 24 hours I found out that I was a mutant. I ran to room and climbed into my huge bed with to many pillows and yanked the cover over my head in an attempt to block out the screaming and fighting from downstairs. I though about the day's events that led up to this moment my big dummy of an older brother kept making fun of me at dinner. When I finally couldn't take it anymore I yelled at him to stop and all of a sudden it was like there was a tornado in the kitchen. As quickly as the wind came it died down leaving the kitchen in disaster the table was flipped over, dishes and forks all over the place, the food was splattered all over the floor and walls. Somehow I knew right away that I was and so did my family; my brother looked me in shock, my mom looked terrified and my dad wouldn't look at me at all. I broke out of my daydream and wiped the tears falling from my face and clutched my teddy bear Mr. Bear.
"Hey freak you in here" a voice called
"Go away Aaron" I said telling my brother to leave while climbing out of the bed
"You know that mom and dad are gonna give you away" he told me
"Leave me alone" I whispered
"They hate you now because you're a mutant"
He continued taunting me I covered me ears with my hands to try block him out; finally I screamed at him to stop and all of a sudden he was no longer standing in my doorway but looked as if he had been pushed into the hall by invisible hands.
"DAD, Solana used he power on me" my brother wailed
"You see she's danger to this household and I want her gone" my father yelled from downstairs.
Still crying I grabbed my backpack and threw out all my school stuff and stuffed a bunch of clothes inside then I grabbed my piggy bank were I stuffed all my birthday and Christmas money. Finally I grabbed Mr. Bear from my bed and opened my bedroom window I grabbed on to the big oak tree right next to my window and shimmed down the tree and stepped on to the sidewalk. Holding Mr. Bear tightly and I started walking down the street away from my house.
Four year's later
The shrill of the alarm followed me out the store and onto the street. I sped off down the side walk not bothering to look back; I shoved the dollar bills from the store's cash register into my jean pockets as I ran. Down the street the overweight security guard slowly ran after me yelling for me to stop I laughed as I ran faster getting farther away from the overweight guard. As I turned the corner I collided with a woman with white hair and a bald man in a wheel chair; the woman and I fell to the ground and the white haired woman fell on top of me
"Get off" I yelled squirming under her pushing her off
She finally stood up and as soon as jumped up I was tackled to the building my hands behind my head. I turned my head to see a cop and the overweight guard behind him panting and red-faced. I could hear a clicking sound and felt my hands being placed in metal cuffs'. I was yanked off the wall and pulled towards a cop car parked next to the guard; the cop who had caught me opened the back door and threw me in.
"Damn kid's" he muttered as he slammed the door shut
He exchanged a few worlds with the guard and the two people I ran into before walking to the driver side of the car and getting in. I looked out the window to see the bald man in the wheel chair looking at me I felt as if something was buzzing in my head. I shook my head the weird feeling leaving as the car pulled away from the curb just a crowd of people was beginning to appear trying to catch a glimpse of what was going on.
"The warden threw a party in the county jail.
The prison band was there and they began to wail.
The band was jumpin and the joint began to swing.
You shouldve heard those knocked out jailbirds sing.
Let's rock, everybody, lets rock.
Everybody in the whole cell block
was dancin to the jailhouse rock."
"Knock it off Elvis" A guard yelled interrupting my singing as he stopped in front of my cell door, he pulled a key ring from his pocket and unlocking the door to the cell and sliding the door open.
"You have a visitor" he said
"Who" I asked as the guard handcuffed me and led me into a room. There inside sat the bald man in the wheel chair and the white haired women from earlier. What are they doing here I thought. I sat down in a chair opposite of the two as the guard told the couple that he would be outside the door if they needed him; the minute eh left an uncomfortable silence filled the room as the three of us stared at each other. Finally the old man broke the silence,
"Hello Solana, my name is Professor Xavier" The old man began
"Wait a minute how on the heck do you know my name"? I asked
"You're not the only one with abilities" I heard a voice say in my head
"What the..."
The man gave me a small smile and tapped his head with his finger
"I'm here to help you, I know all about your "special abilities" I run an academy to help young mutants like yourself get an education and we can also help you gain control or your gifts"
"I can control my powers just fine" I snapped
"I'm sure you can Solana"
"So what do you want from me" I asked
"I offering you a place in my institute" he said sweetly
"You want me to go to a school that's full of freaks like me" I asked skeptically
"It's not a school for freaks it's a place for mutants, children with special abilities" the white haired lady piped in looking quite offended.
"Special is just a nice way of saying freaks" I responded rudely
I then turned to the old man "But I'm in"
