"Hey, Min, suit up. Today's your first training session." Jean appeared in the doorframe, Min looking up from her magazine accordingly. The dark haired girl nodded, putting the magazine down. "Since you're older then the new mutants, we're going to see how well you can train with us, right off the bat. See you in the Danger Room." Jean flashed her a ridiculously perky smile, then disappear as fast as she appeared.
~-~Danger Room? Hope it isn't as bad as it sounds.~-~ She thought, as she changed out of her black overalls and into the normal new recruit-suit. ~-~Oh no, uber-tightness. Not good for PMS. Maybe I can skip it? ...Nah. I'll just grin and bear it. Seems everyone else around here never has to worry about that. Well, the girls any ways.~-~
She zipped it up, and tied her hair into a bun. She closed her door, and went to the elevator at the end of the hall. She pressed the down button, but was nearly run over by a wolf. And something she could've sworn was a cannonball. Min stepped into the elevator behind them. The 'cannonball' turned into a blonde haired boy, and the wolf turned into the redhead girl from earlier.
"Hello. I'm Rahnè Sinclair, and this is Sam Guthrie. You are..." The redhead in the green turtleneck said, pressing the '3' button. Min reached out and pressed 'DR' for Danger Room.
"Min Juen. Newest recruit." She looked up, and saw that they were now at the third floor. Which happened to be way above the Danger Room. Being late for her first session was a perfect way to make a good first impression. She gave a well earned sigh as they reached floor three, then she started to go back down.
When she finally reached the danger room; she was astonished. It was so huge; totally metallic and somewhat futuristic. She saw Scott, Jean, Kitty and Rogue standing there, looking up at what appeared to be some control area. Min ran in, and Rogue sighed.
"Finally! Yer here, and we can start! Ah've been waitin' fer a while."
"You've only been waiting, like, a few minutes, Rogue. Settle down." Kitty piped up, and Min was glad. Out of the two, she preferred the calm Kitty to the vulgar Rogue. But she has only been here, less then two weeks. Maybe she was being a little biassed.
"Ok, we're going to do a typical from end to the other, but with a twist. Min is the only one who can use her powers. You all just cover her if she needs it. Unless you're in immediate danger yourself. Now, Go!" Came the Professor's voice from, well, the walls almost. Then the metallic room turned into a cave-like fortress, and lots of rocks came at them.
Min found herself circled by the others, and looked up only to see rocks falling. She raised her arms above her head, totally straight. Suddenly the rocks exploded, but nothing else did. ~-~Wow, I'm better at this then I thought.~-~
"Good work Min..." Scott began to say, but was cut off by Jean, pointing.
"But we're not done yet!" And suddenly rocks came at them at blinding speed. They all jumped away, Min landing in a somersault and relaxing on her knee's, looking around. She saw a rock about to hit Kitty from behind, but it went right through her. ~-~So that's her power. Wow.~-~
"Min, look out!" Kitty yelled, And Min turned around in time to see a large rock hurdling at her. She moved her arm straight out in front of her, in a wave like motion, but it came too late. The rock passed the anti-matter, about to hit Min, but she was tackled down by Kitty.
The wave of anti-matter she sent out hit the wall, causing a chunk of it to fall down with a loud clash. Min sent a small bit of anti matter, destroying it, and they headed further down the cave simulation. Two wolves came out, followed by two more. Min wiped out two of them, by pointing at them, anti matter rippling. One came up to here, and just as it was about to tackle her, she was hit by behind, falling with a sniping wolf on her stomach, threatening to slit her throat.
Suddenly, the cave disappeared, and all life from the wolves seem to fade out as they stopped, and fell over on their sides. Min got up, dusting herself off. The Professor's voice came loud through the speakers. "Min, please come up here."
"Am I in trouble?" Min asked, a puzzled look crossing her normally attractive face as she scanned all their faces. Rogue shrugged, and Kitty grabbed Min gently by the arms, and started to walk up the air like stairs, getting many confused looks from the others.
"Who knew she could do that?" Scott asked, scratching his head confusedly. Kitty just gave them an enigmatic smile, then phased up into the control room, all the while carrying Min. She let Min go when she reached the control room, then phased back down. Min looked back at her, just about to phase through, and she mouthed 'Good Luck.'
~-~Mm. Thanks.~-~
"Min, we think you're ready to start school tomorrow, so we're giving you the go ahead on that. But, we've been watching you, and studying your power. Now, you prefer to send out anti matter by moving your hands, am I correct?" Professor Xavier started, prompting a nod from Min.
"Now, don't think about the anti-matter, relax your mind, and point at that jar sitting on the table there." He continued, turning his wheelchair to face the jar on the small table. Min cleared her mind of all thoughts, almost like meditating. But it was no good, as the jar exploded any ways.
"I see. Min, you have trained your mind to send out anti-matter with the slightest move of your hand. Put these on, then try." He said, handing Min a pair of lightweight gloves that fit perfectly, not too big or tight. Min, after putting them on, sent out her hand in front of her. No anti-matter.
"I.. what, no, I don't even want to know. So, I have to wear these at school tomorrow?" min asked, looking at her hands. She had lived her life in her hockey jersey, and shorts. She didn't like shoes and socks and really didn't like gloves. The Professor nodded, and Min sighed, turning to leave.
"Wait. I also want to warn you about something. Come with me." He said, then headed towards the elevator in his wheelchair. Min obediently followed, until they stopped. They turned down many enigmatic and confusing halls, until they entered a large circular room with a computer in the middle. "This is Cerebro."
He went over to the computer, and pressed a variation of buttons and keys, then four images showed up. One was a handsome boy with shaggy hair, and ripped jeans. The next was a slim guy with silver hair and almost preppy like clothing. The third was a huge guy with a mohawk and overalls. The fourth was another shaggy haired boy, but was very short.
"What's so special 'bout 'em?"
"They are the BrotherHood. Our enemies, and trainee's of Magneto. Watch for them, they have little tolerance for us. Once they find out you stay here, they'll pick a fight with you right then and there."
Min nodded, and headed out.

"So, Min, tomorrow's your first day of school. Excited?"
"Yeah, Mom. Real excited."
"Min, we talked about this..."
"It's the thought of a new school that's bugging me, Mom. Not the institute."
"Good. Lee told me to tell you, he fixed the Jaguar."
"Omigod really? Well, tell him he cannot take the first ride without me."
"I already did, don't worry. But I got to get back to work now, just remember to keep up the positive thinking. And, try to get over the Damien thing as long as you're in a new place. Relationships are not as bad as she may have made them seem."
"Ok Mom. Thanks for caring. Good bye."
"Bye."
