chapter 2 A wild recruit
All the mutants were training. "Come on Gambit keep at it," Cyclops said.
"I'm doing my best here," Gambit said.
"I know just try and give it all you got," Cyclops said.
"I know you can do it," Rogue said.
"Okay then," Gambit said. Then charged a playing card he found in his pocket and threw it. It was a direct hit and it exploded.
"Nice job Gambit," Nightcrawler said.
"Thanks Nightcrawler," Gambit said.
"Good work, now it's time for you kids to go catch up on your studies," Storm said.
"We will don't worry," Jean said.
"Kids," Logan said.
Meanwhile cerbros was going off. "Mutant signature detected name Hannah Maxter, age 16 location Dallas Texas." Cerbros said.
"We have to find this young mutant," Xavier said.
"Then let's go," Scott said.
Hannah Maxter was always able to be around animals easily. She talked to them often and played with them. But she wasn't understanding what was happening to herself.
"Hey can Wanda and I come?" Peitro asked.
"Sure we are trying to recruit a new mutant she maybe nervous so we need all the help we can get," Magneto said.
Hannah was sitting under a tree.
"She is under a tree near the edge of the woods one of you must talk to her," Xavier said.
"Can I go?' Peitro asked.
"I coming too," Gambit said.
"Go and be careful not to startle her." Magneto said.
"Then lets go," Peitro said and ran off.
"Peitro wait I'm not as fast as you!" Gambit said running after him.
Hannah was sighing wondering what was happening to her or what she was. Then she saw Peitro. "Who are you?" Hannah asked.
"My name is Peitro," he told her. "I know what you are going through I didn't know what was happening or what I was. Just like you I have a gift," he added.
"A gift?" Hannah said.
"Yes," Peitro said. "Come with me and I will take you to ones who will help you," he told her.
"Umm okay," Hannah said.
Then Gambit ran up. "Hey you should learn to wait up for people you speed demon!" Gambit shouted.
"Eeek!"Hannah said. Then a bird of prey swooped down and it's talons scratched Gambit. "Oh no not again!" she said.
"What do you mean again?" Gambit said hold the bleeding cut on his forehead.
"Sometimes animals come out of nowhere when I get scared frightened or lonely, one time I told a swarm of bees to fly away and go home and not to attack me and my friend and they obeyed. For some reason I have some power over animals," Hannah said.
"I see," Gambit said. "Sorry if I scared you," he said.
"It's okay," Hannah said.
"Now come with us," Peitro said.
They led her to the others. "Gambit what happened to you? You're bleeding," Beast said.
"Oh apparently this girl has power over animals and the animal heard her scream when I startled her and attacked me," Gambit said.
"Sorry about that," Hannah said.
"It's okay," Gambit said.
"Well Hannah I know you can learn to control your powers," Xavier said. "I just talked with your parents and you will be coming to New York to learn, so do you want to?" he asked.
"Yes I want too more than anything," Hannah said. "I want to learn to control my powers and use them properly," she said.
"Good, now you better pack," Xavier said.
Hannah packed all of her things and was now ready to go. "Bye mom, bye dad," she said.
"We want you be the best you can be," her father said.
"Now go do your best," her mother said.
Hannah left and moved into the mansion. It took sometime to get use too. She met Logan's wolverine Spooked. "I didn't know this place allowed pets," Hannah said.
"We do, as long as you take care of it," Xavier said.
"That's the rule," Logan said.
"Logan who is this?" Spooked asked.
"This Hannah," Logan said.
"He talks?" Hannah asked.
"Yes he is a mutant animal apparently now Animals are getting the mutant Gene too." Logan said.
"I see," Hannah said. "This place will get some getting use too," she said.
"Hi I'm Jubilee your new roommate," Jubilee said.
"I never had a roommate before," Hannah said.
"Well now you do," Jubilee said.
Hannah put up her stuff and started to get settled. This was really going to get some getting use too.
