Disclaimer: I do not own any of the characters from X-Men. I only own my original characters. I also do not own YouTube.
A/N: This is my first story. It starts off a bit slow just to introduce the character and for story development. I hope you enjoy! I would appreciate any reviews I could get. Some future characters from the movies might be a bit out of character due to me not seeing the movies in forever. However, I will research the backstories for each character to do my best to keep them in character. That's enough rambling for now haha.
A Dull Life: Chapter 1
BEEP BEEP BEEP
Groaning, Adilynn rolled over at glared at her alarm clock. She hated the mornings. It was always so cold and she always felt so groggy. Well maybe that last part is her own fault but, hey, YouTube is a great invention.
BEEP BEE-
She cut it off with the heavy tap of her hand before it could irritate her any further. Rolling onto her back she just laid and stared at the ceiling in deep thought. Adilynn's first day of her last semester of college was today. With a sigh, she got out of bed. She wanted to at least try her best for the first day of school.
Planning to clean up once walking into the bathroom, she instead just stood in front of the mirror staring at her reflection. She always thought of herself as odd. Her hair was a silvery grey with some white and dark grey tones mixed in. Her eyes were stone grey with no trace of color in them. Out of fear she always just told her peers that she wore contacts and constantly dyed her hair. This world they lived in, it was no place for outsiders.
See, there are extraordinary people called Mutants that roam the world. Some are more well-hidden than others. These Mutants have special powers unlike any ordinary human. Because of this, the government has convinced the world to fear them. Adilynn is pretty sure she isn't a Mutant though. She's never could do any kind of special power in the 23 years she's been alive. However, that doesn't stop others from fearing her differences in appearance and assuming she's one of them.
Running her long, curly hair through her fingers she decides to just throw it up in a bun to avoid the hassle of her curls. Even though there would still probably be a problem tonight when trying to get the hair tie out. After finishing her make-up and getting dressed, she heads off to school grabbing a bagel on her way out the door.
Adilynn wasn't the best at socializing. Sometimes she just felt as if whenever she was around, nothing ever happened. No one ever laughed; no one ever seemed to feel anything. No matter how much she tries to change her attitude or body language, nothing ever changes. It's gotten to the point where she doesn't try too hard.
So, after class was over, she wasn't surprised when she didn't make any friends once again. So, deciding she didn't want to think about her shitty effects on people, she headed over to the library. There, is where she can hide from the reality of her dull life. She loved adventure books. Books that expressed so much emotion that felt foreign to her. Reading books and watching movies or shows was what helped her learn how emotions worked and felt. Anything that has to do with reality feels dull to her, even her own emotions.
Picking a book to read, she sits on the couch she's deemed as hers ever since she was little and prepares to read for a couple hours.
A/N: Thanks for reading! Please leave a review. I will try to update within the next couple days. The next chapter will start introducing characters from the movies.
