Burnin' water The beginning of something bigger
{Author's note: Hi guys, this is another story I'm working on. I've wrote a lot of chapters that are in the middle of the story, so I decided to write the first chapter. This is a Pyro/OC story, he'll make an appearance in the next chapter. This is the prologue! Have fun reading and reviews are always welcome!}
N.P.O.V
When Brookelle Ravenwood drove home from school, she saw an unfamiliar car standing in the driveway. She was certain that she had never seen that car before. When she got inside and hung her keys on a hook by the door she yelled "Mom, I'm home".
He mothers' voice came out of the living room "Could you come here for a second, sweetie?" she asked. When Brookelle entered she saw two strangers in her living room. One was an old bald man in a wheelchair, he looked like a nice person. The other person was a kind looking caramel skin toned woman with white hair.
She smiled at Brooke "Hello" she greeted her with a smile.. The man smiled at her as well "Good afternoon" he greeted her as well. They seemed friendly people so Brookelle smiled back "Hello, I'm Brookelle" she introduced herself and shook their hands.
The man smiled at her again "Ah, you are the one we're looking for. My name is Charles Xavier and this is Ororo Monroe, to some known as Storm" he introduced himself and the woman. Brooke frowned, she realized that they must be mutants. She heard the man's voice in her head 'Yes, we are mutants just like you' he said friendly.
She was surprised but said nothing, she sat down next to her mother on the couch. Xavier smiled at them "I would like to offer you a place at my school for gifted youngsters" he said to Brookelle and Strom handed her mother a brochure.
Her mother read it "It looks beautiful but it's in New York, a bit far away" her mother said unsure, she wasn't ready to be that far away from her daughter yet. Brooke looked at her mother "Mom, if you'd let me, I'd like to try" she asked. Her mother bit her lip "I have to think about it" she said thinking.
Xavier gently cleared his throat "I'd like to have a word with your daughter in private please" he requested. Her mother nodded "Okay, I'll be upstairs when you need me" she stood up and left.
Brooke smiled at him "If my mom let's me, I'd like to attend your school though I'm not sure I'm gifted" she was thinking gifted meant being incredibly smart like the next Einstein. Storm chuckled "Don't worry about that" she put Brooke at ease. Xavier looked at her "My school is a school for mutants. You have a very powerful gift Brookelle" he told her.
She looked around in the room and let the water from the vase on the table, the glasses on the table and the water in the grass outside levitate. Storm and Xavier looked outside seeing her power "I can do a lot more than that" she told them with a small victorious smile.
Xavier nodded "You're very powerful indeed but can you control that gift or will it control you?" he asked her. She dropped the water in a second with a large splash. He looked her in the eye "I can help you control that gift" he tried to convince her.
She looked at her hands "If I come with you…will you teach me how to use it?" she asked unsure, she wanted to know how much she could do. He nodded "Yes, I will help you learn" he said truthfully.
She looked at him "Than I want to come with you" she had made her decision and not even her mother was going to stop her. He smiled at her "Good, I think it's time your mother came back down. Don't you think?" he said. Brooke stood up and walked towards the stairs "Mom, you can come back down now!" she yelled. Her mother came back down and they went back to the living room and sat down again.
Brooke looked at her mother "Mom, I've made my decision. I want to go to the school" she said determent. Her mother shook her head "Brooke, I don't know can't you just go to UCLA?" she still had doubts. Brooke shook her head stubborn "Look mom, I love you but I have to make this decision on my own. This ismy future, not yours" she made her point.
Her mother let out a sigh, she had never seen her daughter so determent about something and she figured that this school was going to be important for her "Alright, you can go but you have to call me once in a while" she looked at Xavier "When will she leave?" she still wasn't comfortable about her daughter going to New York without her. Xavier gave her a kind smile "Tomorrow? If that isn't too soon" he asked polite.
Brooke jumped up from her seat exited before her mother could answer "Are you kidding me? It's perfect!" she said smiling. Xavier smiled at her "Than we will see you in the morning" he rolled his wheelchair out of the door, Storm following close behind "We will be here tomorrow morning with a yet to pick you up" She told Brookelle who nodded in acknowledgement.
When they were gone Brooke started packing her belongings taking a few suitcases with her, she couldn't wait to go to New York. Little did she know that her whole destiny was waiting for her there, this was just the beginning of something much bigger.
