Ch 3--What the Crap?
Nikki POV
"Can you explain to me where I am, how I got here and who you are?" I asked, nervousness and fear evident on my face by the glare of the swinging light overhead. The Professor had taken me into a room with chrome walls and medical equipment everywhere.
"Well, I was hoping you could explain the second but as for where you are, this is my school for the gifted. And I am Cha-"
"Charles Xavier, known to your students and X-Men as Professor X. I know."I cut him off because I already knew who he was. I knew everything. His background, his lovers, his son, everything about him was stored in my X-Men obsessed brain. I just had to hear him say his name.
"How do you know all that?" His face had grown pale which only emphasized his cobalt blue eyes.
"Tell ya later. First you tell me how you found me."
"Okay."he says hesitating for a second because of my sudden change of attitude.
"Here let me help you. Let's see, you were on Cerebro, just checking everything out and then you saw something strange, me, apparently, so you sent, uh what's his name...oh, Peter, Colossus, to come find me. Right? Fill in the blanks for me."
Then I feel a wave of anger, like a tsunami, as he prys into my brain to see where I've come from. It's so forceful it knocks me to the ground. As I fall to the floor my heads cracks on the corner of the table. Stars burst in my eyes a moment before blood starts pouring over them. oh look is that part of my brain?
I struggle to get up with only one thought in mind: Beat the crap out of him. I grab the corner of the table and...metal claws slide from between my knuckles? I collapse back to the floor and stare at the claws until I feel the blood stop gushing from my wounded (most likely concussed) head and I feel the wound slowly begin to close up. I sit up as I hear a small, mechanical whir and my head spins.
"I'm sorry for doing that." the Professor's gentle voice says. "But I had to know what your power was."
Tap, tap. "Hey Charley. Everything okay in there?" The door opens a crack and I see the face of my idol, Logan.
I completely ignore him though as I gaze at the Professor in shock.
"W-what? You mean that I'm a mutant? How?"
