Chapter 2: Starting the fall

The vision of that day played before her in her dream. The screaming and yelling of people as they ran down the street, trying to escape the fire that was chasing them. She wanted to stop it; she wanted to make it all go away. But no matter what she did the flames just kept on coming from her towards the people running down the streets.

"NO! PLEASE MAKE IT STOP." She screamed no one could hear her; they just kept on running and screaming.

Kyra woke with a start and bolted up from where ever she was. Then the pain shot through her arms. She opened her eyes and was confronted with a bright light. She moaned and closed her eyes again, covering her eye with her hands.

"Professor I think she's up."

This time Kyra opened her eyes all the way and came face to face with one of the most beautiful girls she had ever seen. She had short brown hair with two white streaks at the front, falling over and almost covering her bight green eyes. The girl was covered from heads to toe the only skin showing was the skin on her face. She had long gloves coming up to her elbows. But she was still gorgeous, no amount of dark make up could change that.

Someone else entered the room, a bald man in a wheel chair. Ok so this was getting a little bit weird. Where was she, who where these people? She didn't like feeling lost or of place but here she felt both. She tried to sit up getting ready to start with the questions that were floating around in her mind. The Pain shot through her body, she cried out and help her arms. That's right she burn herself with the fire that she had no ides where it had come from.

"Hello Kyra," Said the bald man. She wondered how long she had been staring out into space with out saying anything. "My name is Professor Xavier."

Kyra found the controls for he bed and lifted it up so that she was sitting up without really moving. "Are you an X-men?" She asked watching him and the girl at the same time. She remember that red haired girl had called herself an X-men, the one who helped her in town.

"No, but I am the leader of the X-men and the leader of this school." Said The Professor.

She rubbed her head; she really didn't know what was going on. "where am I and when can I leave?" She asked with a short to the point tone in her voice she really didn't want to be here

"It is a place for people like you and like me and for Rogue here." He waved her hand towards the girl who was still sitting near her in a chair. "You are a mutant. There is an extra gene in your body that gives you super natural powers." He paused for a moment before watching her with sadness in his eyes. "Kyra you can't leave here just yet, your not well."

She knew that he was lying to her she could feel it, there was something that he didn't want to say. But this just kept getting way weirder as the time went by. Now she was some kind of super hero with powers. She hoped that she had fallen in to some kind of a dream and none of this was real.

"This whole school was built for people like us, to use them how to control and use there powers for the greater good." He smiled and rested him hand on top of Kyra's. She pulled away fearing that she might hurt her. How there could there be a whole school for people like her. Maybe she wasn't that alone after all. But what about her parents? Did they know where she was and what she was doing?

"Your parents do where you are we have contacted them when you got here." How did he know what she had been thinking. "That's my power I can read minds."

Kyra's jaw dropped, "Your fucken kidding me, there is now way that's not possible." She looked at him disbelief written on her face, "Alright so what's my power then?"

He smiled, "You can control and create fire, when you do your body has to take steps to protect itself, it become heat restart and your skin turns red. When you are like that nothing can hurt you."

"Yeah right that believable," But part of it did fit somewhat, she had seen fire al around her when she was in town she did burn herself, then when her skin turned red she wasn't burning herself anymore.

The professor smiled and backed up with his chair towards to door, "Well I must go now, Rogue will show you around the school and to your room." He smiled and headed towards the door without another word to anyone.

"wait you can't just leave me here!" Kyra watched him go then turned again to Rogue. Great what was she going to now she could not stay here.

"Do ya feel up to a tour of the school?" She asked standing and pulling down her skirt. Kyra tried to keep up with everything that Rogue was showing her. There was the kitchen, the dinning room, the Danger room which she explained was where you can go and do work with your powers, and then she showed her the dorms. Something inside her wanted to run but something was holding her back, it was Rogue.

Kyra had know that she liked girls for some time know she was bi sexual and had no problem with it. Rogue was like no one she had ever seen before, she was perfect her green eyes angel. She wanted to stay it was better then going home at the moment she had to many things to think about right now, and if Rogue was here then this place wasn't so bad.

When they reached a hallway in the back of the school Rogue spoke again.

"This is the girls dorms your room is just down this hallway." She kept on walked Kyra followed her, when she reached a large wooden door with the number 28 on it. Rouge reached into her pocket and pulled out a small silver key, when se opened the door she handed the key to Kyra.

"This is he key to your room, don't lose it." She opened the door for her and before Kyra could ask anything else she was already half way down the hall way. Kyra looked back at the hallway hoping she would come back and not leave her here alone, after standing there for a few moments she sighed and turned to leave.

Kyra stepped into her room, it was bigger then anything she even seen before. The walls where a light blue and there where two single beds in the room both on opposite sides. On each side of the room thee was a desk, dresser, night stand and a book self. On half of the room there where random boxes lying on the floor. She figured that was her side of the room. She walked over and sat on the bed, she wasn't sure about staying here but the people did seam nice. But right now she didn't think it was a good idea to unpack all of her stuff. She knew she wasn't going to be here long, she couldn't stay here she wanted to go home. Kyra lay down on the bed the pain was still there she tired to sleep it off, slowly she drifted into a dreamless sleep.
