The Powers that Bind Us.

A/N:

This is a kind of crossover with X-Men in the fact that they have awesome mutant powers and they go to a school to control them. More characters will be introduced in the next chapter. The pairings are eventual Klaroline, Kalijah and Stebekah. If you have any constructive critiscism or ideas for the plot then feel free to tell me and my co-author. Happy reading!

Chapter 1- The Mikaelson Academy.

The Mikaelson Academy was founded in 1594 by Cornelius Mikaelson after his daughter developed the ability to see the future. As he did not want her to be put in an asylum he bought a mansion in the countryside near the lake district. There he taught her to restrain her power as she would have bouts of immense pain when she had visions.

In the year 1963 Mikael Mikaelson was born. At a young age, he met a girl named Ester Prior, who was the daughter of a wealthy lord and eventually they got married. a few years after their marriage they had their first child, Elijah Mikaelson. The two years later, they had Finn Mikaelson, followed by Niklaus Mikaelson another two years later. Two years after Niklaus' birth Kol Mikaelson was born, followed by Rebekah less than a year later and finally they had their final child, Henrik Mikaelson, after three years. Elijah, Finn, Klaus, Rebekah and Henrik grew up in the mansion as they developed powers of their own, except Finn.

Over time, the academy continued to accept people with extraordinary powers from all over the world.

And that is where our story begins.

"Niklaus! Get out of that bed right now! School starts in 2 days and we need to start preparations. " Klaus groaned as he heard his older brother Elijah's voice come through his door.

"Get Kol to do it. " He whined, burying his head in his pillow.

He could practically see Elijah's raised eyebrow. "Kol is even more lazy than you. Do you really expect him to wake up before noon? "

Klaus had to admit that was a fair point. His younger brother was rather... How shall I put it... Impetuous. He groaned as he hauled himself out of bed, pulled on a t-shirt and stumbled past Elijah and down the stairs to eat breakfast before Henrik and Rebekah ate it all.

Downstairs, he was greeted by the surprising and unwelcome sight of Kol sitting awake but shirtless at the breakfast table.

"Kol, put a shirt on. " He heard Rebekah complain. "I don't want to have to look at that while I eat my breakfast. You're making me feel sick. "

Klaus laughed as he sat down next to Henrik.

"Bekah, darling. I'm too sexy for my shirt. Face it. I'm prettier than you. I wouldn't be surprised if Stefan started to fancy me instead. " Kol grinned as Rebekah flushed red and threw a roll of bread at him. Kol ducked out of the kitchen and went god knows where. Rebekah scowled, muttering something about getting revenge under her breath.

Ester Mikaelson walked into the kitchen and was greeted by three of her children. She glanced around, looking for Elijah who was nowhere to be seen.

"Have any of you seen Elijah? I need to talk to him about the preparations for the first day of school."

Henrik smiled sweetly and innocently. "I think he's daydreaming about Katherine Gilbert again." Klaus snorted into his drink and Rebekah almost choked on the toast that she was chewing. Ester rolled her eyes before departing to find Elijah.

Bonnie Bennett sighed as she looked outside the window of the car she and Elena Gilbert were travelling in to some academy. The weather was adequate. The sky was rather cloudy but it was not raining and it was quite warm, even though it was not as warm as Virginia.

"Why do we have to go this school? " She heard Elena complain to her right.

Bonnie glanced over at her. "Maybe it will be good for us. I mean, I don't like losing control and causing people pain. Maybe this school will help. "

Elena sighed. "Don't tell me you agree with this. "

"I don't agree. You know I want to be in Mystic Falls as much as you do but we have to go to this school so there's not point in complaining about it. " Bonnie snapped.

Elena opened her mouth to retort but she was cut off when the driver announced. "We've arrived at the Mikaelson Academy. "

Bonnie and Elena turned to look at the huge stately manor with the largest grounds that they had seen.

"If we have to be forced to live in some house in the middle of nowhere, at least it looks cool. " Elena murmured.
