Era

Chapter One

I held my head in my hands resisting the urge to scream. It felt like something was about ready to crawl out of my head. I mean I'd had a lot of migraines lately, but this was nothing compared to those. I didn't want to worry Mom and Dad about it because they've been working too hard trying to make ends meet lately. The plunging economy was no help to that. My eyes ran across my desk where homework was thrown askew. All of the colors around me went to gray concerning me immensely. What was going on? I clenched my fists trying to fight the pain that was growing in my head.

Blinking I found myself in an unfamiliar place. Easily I noticed that unaware people surrounded me as though I was an invisible bystander. A boy shot a laser right through my body proving my invisible bystander point. Whirling around I was facing another boy who couldn't be much older then me. His eyes rolled into the back of his head right as the ground began to quake below me. Falling to my knees due to the imbalance I struggled to understand what was occurring in front of me.

My body jolted in my wooden desk chair almost causing me to fall over. I placed my hands on both sides of my head as tears welled in my eyes. "What's happening to me?"

"Daphne are you paying attention?" Mr. Thornton asked as I quickly realized that I was still sitting in class. Honors English to be exact. I was having trouble adjusting to whatever the hell was going on with me. It honestly bugged me to no end. I couldn't predict when it was going to happen and every time it did I had a killer headache afterwards. Not my cup of tea.

"Yes indeed." I smiled sweetly in his direction. Looking to the dry erase board I wanted to see what exactly we were going over, because he had caught me when I wasn't paying attention.

"Well if you were paying attention answer this. What King of England was killed with a hot poker?" He definitely stubbed me with that question. Any other day I could answer it no pressure, but today I was losing my mind after that little episode last night.

"King Henry?" Inside I winced with my answer. It just didn't sound right.

"Is there a number tagged onto that questionable statement?" It was like he wanted to make me feel like more of an idiot then I already did. As I would say channeling my English grandparents he was making me feel like a bloody idiot.

"No." Shrinking in my seat I glanced over to Harry who sat next to me. Any confidence I had went out the window.

"Wrong, now pay attention to the class." Nodding I stared down at my nails feeling his concerned gaze on me.

At the end of class I quickly picked up my messenger bag dismissing myself before Mr. Thornton could talk to me about today. "What's up with you?" Harry asked sweeping his fingers through his red hair before intertwining them with mine.

"Nothing is up with me." Shrugging I looked at him again. "I just had a long night, aren't I entitled to one of those every once and a while?"

"Take a chill pill Daph, I was just asking."

I felt my mood damper even more so. I always hated when I accidentally took out my anger on Harry. He was only being concerned. Boyfriends do that ever once and a while. "Sorry Harry, Mr. Thornton just upset me that's all." Smiling I playfully jabbed my elbow into his side. Planting a quick kiss on his cheek. "I still like you if you're concerned about that."

Letting out a laugh he grinned. "Well I hope that you would still like me. After all it took me forever to catch you."

"You won't be losing me anytime soon." My smile grew even wider at the last bit of his statement. It had taken me forever to even grow mildly used to Harry being around. He was a big track athlete and I basically thought he was chasing me for a game. Little did I know that he really did like me. It only took around six months for him to attain me. I was more of a challenge then he thought that was for sure. "Want to take a run after your practice?"

"Sure I'll call you when I'm out."

I stepped off of the bus finding an unfamiliar car parked in the driveway. Mom's car was there too which was odd, because she generally didn't come home until around six. Hesitantly I opened the front door unsure of what I might find. Quickly I made the decision to put my things in my room first and did so. "Daphne I need to speak to you." Mom said up the stairs. She must have known that I was avoiding whatever was downstairs.

It was like an intervention. A bald man in a wheelchair along with a red headed female sat on the sofa across from Mom who sat in the armchair. "What exactly is going on Mom?" I didn't even bother to sit down I stood with my arms crossed over my chest.

"Is there something that you want to say about last night?" She asked sweeping her light blonder hair from her face.

"Nothing at all." What in the hell is going on? It's like everyone knew about whatever it was that happened last night.

"Look Daphne," Mom's dark green eyes met mine showing a certain firmness. "Why didn't you just say that there was something wrong with you?"

"There is nothing wrong with me." I defended narrowing my light blue eyes.

"No one said there was anything wrong with you." Wrong, wrong and wrong I thought as the bald man finally spoke. If I don't recall Mom just asked what was wrong with me. "Now if you would be so kind as to sit down we could discuss what happened."

"Nothing happened zero, zilch, nada. I had a migraine that is all." I didn't want to shout at the strangers, but I did. I felt like such a bitch doing that, but they were treading a thin line.

With that I ran out the front door. A blinding light flashed around me, and the next thing I knew I was falling midair. Grunting I found myself in an awkward position lying below my feet as I watched myself argue with me mother over what happened. I had just had this discussion not even five minutes ago. Everything was gray scaled once more annoying me greatly. What in the world was going on? Then as if everything was back to normal warm yellows surrounded me and color was back.

Mom held a hand over her mouth. She looked as if she couldn't decide whether she wanted to run or cry. "Why didn't you tell me?" I could hear her voice on the verge of cracking.

"I—I don't know." Tears began to flow as I sat up. "Just stop whatever is happening to me." I stared pointedly at the man and the girl.

"I'm afraid that I can't stop it." His voice held the regret that I could clearly see on his face. "I am here to offer you help to control your powers Daphne."

Mom was out of the room by now. She was probably in her room sobbing uncontrollably at the daughter who had more then likely just put her to shame. "I'm sorry did you say powers?" My voice was scratchy. I was pathetic when I cried.

"Yes," the girl spoke for the first time to my knowledge. She looked like she was waiting for the right moment to talk. "Cerebro said that you have time traveling abilities as well as psychic." The breeze from the window blew her red hair from her face as I felt their intent stares on me.

"Can you really help?" I was hesitant in asking. I'm honestly not sure how much that I did trust these people I had only just met them.

"Yes I can, but first I feel that you should know our names since we didn't have a moment to introduce ourselves beforehand. I'm Professor Xavier and this is Jean Grey, it's a pleasure to meet you Daphne Walker."

"You too." I stood up wiping my eye quickly. Extending my hand I shook both of theirs feeling as though my life was changing in that very moment. Hopefully it would.

After Mom had calmed down she along with Dad were sitting across from Jean Grey and Professor Xavier. "So you think that this place can help Daphne with her…" Dad swallowed lightly I could tell that he was nervous about the idea. "Abilities?"

"Yes I do, Jean is one of my students who has greatly improved control of her powers." He smiled lightly in my parent's direction. I wasn't much of one for words at this point my fate was in the hands of my parent's.

"What may I ask is your power?" Mom finally spoke for the first time in a while.

"Well I'm telepathic and telekinetic." Jean said looking at my parent's.

"I'm sorry, but what exactly are those abilities? I'm not up to par on power names." Dad laughed after pushing his rimmed glasses up the bridge of his nose.

"Mind control and moving things with my mind. Would you like me to show you an example?" A lulling grin planted on her face.

Mom's face fell uncomfortably. "No I'd prefer that not to happen in my house."

I felt the need to cut in at the point and say my piece. "Dad, Mom please don't take this the wrong way, but I think that it's best that I go." It was true I couldn't keep going on with life like the past two days had been. My light blonde hair covered my face as I stared to my lap not sure if I wanted to hear their reactions.

"We'll discuss what's best for you in a moment." Mom crossed her arms across her chest hugging her gray cardigan closer as if she was cold. She was clearly uncomfortable with the situation at hand. I couldn't blame her all of this was thrust upon her in the course of an afternoon.

My pocket vibrated and I pulled out my phone ignoring everything that was going on. Harry flashed across the screen making my stomach clench. How was I going to tell him that I needed to leave…that I had to leave. Suddenly I felt extremely hesitant about this decision. I had to tell him tonight.

Getting up I walked to the front door disregarding my parent's speaking to me. Harry stood there as if he already knew that I needed him at that very moment. His arms were around me in a moment as he saw how torn that I seemed to be. "I have to talk to you about something." I resisted the urge to sob at that very moment. I had a feeling more then just my heart would be broken tonight.

A/N: So what did you think? I was randomly inspired when X-Men Evolution started airing on TV again and I just went with it. I tried coming up with a power that as far as I know hasn't been used on that show yet...well I know psychic has been used, but other then that time traveling. Well hopefully you liked it, I'd love to know your thoughts or constructive criticism on it.

Thanks for reading =)
