Mutant X
" The Struggle"
Chapter 1-FDR Academy
8:00 am
Sanctuary
Sierra sat down at the edge of the reflecting pool looking down at her reflection. She was upset, the others wanted her to do something that she didn't want to do.
"So you'll be even more intelligent than you already are," Emma interrupted sitting next to Sierra.
"Hey! I thought you were a telempath?" Sierra told Emma.
"I am, but when you're projecting your thoughts like that...even Adam could read them," Emma said laughing a bit.
"I don't want to go to school! Can't I be schooled here?"
"You could, but believe me, you're luckily you get to do this...sooner or later you're going to get bored of Sanctuary...and most likely sooner."
"Can you believe I have to wear this?!" Sierra said turning around to show Emma the red, white, and blue dress she was wearing. The dress had short puffy sleeves, the waist line was raised so that it was about three inches above her waist, and the dress went to her knees. Most of the dress was blue, there was an american flag in the middle on the chest and tiny white stars around it. The dress' trim was in red, and she wore a blue barret type of a hat with red trim and one little white star , white tights and black shoes. "I mean who actually wears this to school?"
"You do," Shalimar interrupted smiling.
"I am not pleased," Sierra said in her english accent getting giggling from both her mother and Emma. "What?"
"Nothing," Shalimar said.
"You look cute, Sierra," Emma told her hugging her, "very patriotic."
"Great!"
"Sierra, you're going to be late for school!" Brennan called as he, Jesse, and Adam approached the girls and noticed that Sierra was not happy. "What's wrong?"
"I don't want to wear this."
"So, don't."
"It's a uniform, she has to," Shalimar told her husband, "and plus she looks cute..."
"And how is this any different than that white dress you arrived in?" Jesse asked.
"It's red, white, and blue, and it's ridiculous!" Sierra told him.
"Now, Sierra everyone at your new school will be wearing the same thing, well except the boys...they get to wear slacks, a long sleeve dress shirt, vest, and tie." Adam tried to get Sierra to calm down.
"Fine!"
"Remember what we discussed about your powers?"
"Yes, I know...keep it on the down low," Sierra said.
"Brennan," Shalimar said slapping her husband lightly. "You've corrupted our precious little girl!"
"Come on Shal' she could have heard it anywhere," Brennan said and everyone laughed. "Okay, so...maybe not."
"Okay, let's go," Shalimar said and the Mulwray family left Sanctuary.

There was someone else with her... He watched as a curly brown haired girl ran into Brennan's arms shouting Daddy. He thought about it for a second He watched as the small girl got into the silver car with Shalimar and Brennan. He watched as they drove away.

Sanctuary
Sierra, Shalimar, and Brennan returned home to Sanctuary. Sierra did not look happy Emma noticed. She, Jesse, and Adam were waiting for her. "So? How'd it go?"
"It was miserable. Do I have to go there?" Sierra complaigned.
"What was so bad about it?" Shalimar asked.
"No one likes me...well except Analyn, but no one likes her either."
"Why not? Why don't they like you two?"
"I'm five and they're all six or seven and they say I talk funny and I told them I just have an accent because I grew up in London and they said that that made me really weird."
"You're not weird sweetie," Shalimar said hugging Sierra. "You are wonderful!"
"Why don't they like Analyn?" Jesse asked.
"Because she has bright red hair and she wears glasses. They're really mean to her."
"That sucks!"
"Yeah," Brennan said. "Well you and Analyn are probably just the smartest kids in the class."
"Yeah, I guess...she knows french, too! Her dad's in the military or something..."
"So, they're just all way jelous that you two are so smart."
"We intimidate them?"
"Something like that."
"Sounds about right," Adam said.
"You would know from experience," Brennan said getting a smile from everyone even Adam.
"Watch it," Adam warned. "So, no problems?"
"None," Shalimar said.
"Come on, Sierra, why don't you go get changed and then we can hang out and watch a movie?" Emma suggested and Sierra nodded. Emma and Sierra left the others to talk.
"Adam, you don't think Gabriel would still come looking for her, do you?" Shalimar asked worried.
"Remember you all have those nanochips implanted in your system, so even if Gabriel gets Sierra we'll be able to track her."
"Adam, maybe she shouldn't go to school."
"Shal', it's not like it's a public school or something," Brennan said.
"Yeah, I've seen that place it's like a castle!" Jesse chimed in.
"Jesse's already checked out their security and it's top of the line," Adam told her.
"But Gabriel is a New Mutant," Shalimar argued.
"Yeah, well I think even he would get caught or at least sighted...he wouldn't be able to get to her and get her out. She's going to be fine."
