Disclaimer; None of the characters are mine all I have done is try and
entertain a few people who glance at my story on Fanfiction.

Chapter 1; Summoning
'Mutants! Simply because we are born different cannot simply define us as good or evil. People who have a mutant gene usually have it activated by a fear factor! When they are afraid or stressed the gene is activated causing mutation.
The first that I approach is a young German mutant named Kurt Wagner. He is a fine acrobat and is covered from head to toe in blue fur. Humanity fears him for his fur, forked tail, two toed feet and three fingered hands. I have also scanned him with the newly constructed 'Cerebro'. Kurt tested positive for the mutant gene. His unique power is the ability to teleport.' From the diary of Professor Charles Xavier.
"Aaaand presenting the marvellous, the incredible, NIGHTCRAWLER," shouted the circus ringleader. Cheers rose from the ground as a small figure appeared on the tightrope. The crowd below did not realise the acrobat was a mutant, they thought it was a man in a mask. The blue furred acrobat ran back and forth along the rope. Then the figure fell from the rope. The drop was at least sixty feet but his monkey-like tail saved him from certain death. The crowd let out a sigh of relief.
After the show when the crowd had dispersed Charles Xavier approached the young teleporter.
"Hello Kurt!" said the telepath. Nightcrawler turned around to face an adult. The bald adult was just less than five foot twelve. "I am Professor Charles Xavier."
(In this reality Charles Xavier was not crippled by the being known as Lucifer.)
"Gutantack, Herr Professor," replied the German mutant.
"I own a school in America. It is a school for people like you."
"What do you mean for people like me?"
"It is a school for mutants!"
"What are you saying that I am one of the freaks that you see on the TV? Just because I look different does not mean I'm a mutant."
"I know about your special teleporting ability."
"Have you been spying on me?"
"No. It's just.Umm." Nightcrawler's eyes brightened when he thought he had found the answer.
"So you have been spying on me, eh? For how long?"
"I haven't been spying. I have a machine that enables me to find mutants across the globe. That is how I found you. I was trying to help you," said Xavier in a pleading tone. Nightcrawler looked Xavier up and down, weighing his options.
"Okay, but as soon as we get to your school I want to see your machine and check whether you are telling the truth."
'That was how I got Nightcrawler to join my school. My next recruit was a young English woman called Elisabeth Braddock. I scanned her with Cerebro and discovered that her mutant abilities were akin to my own. She is a telepath. She can also focus all of her powers into an energy knife, which is something that I am unable to do.' From the diary of Professor Charles Xavier.
Captain Britain: the self appointed protector of the British Isles. Twin brother of Elisabeth Braddock. Elisabeth was a very proper girl, she brought up in the most expensive of boarding schools. Yet she always yearned to be an adventurer like Lara Croft but she was always denied. Now that she was a young woman she was able to indulge in martial arts. When her powers first manifested she was in a crowded shopping mall. Voices pounded into her head. A few days later she sits in her room of her family mansion. Her head is empty, no other voices in it but her own. Then a polite tap at her room door.
"Come in," said Elisabeth. A short bald man walked into her room.
"Hello Betsy. I'm Charles Xavier. I own a school in New York for children with special abilities."
"How come I can't hear anything coming from your head?"
"I know what you are going through Betsy. You feel like you are going to throw up. Voices pound in your head, you can't get any peace."
"How do you know all that?" asked Betsy her eyes brimming with tears.
"Because I went through the same thing. I am a telepath too. My school is for people like you who need help understanding their abilities. Do you want to come with me?"
"Yes please."
'Betsy Braddock told her parents she was coming with me to America. At first they were pessimistic but when I told them what my school was for they agreed but only if Betsy rang them everyday. I now had two students at Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters. I was planning on having at least six in my original class. The next mutant that Cerebro found was a young man from Siberia named Piotr Rasputin. His mutant talent was to transform his skin into a protective layer of organic steel.' From the diary of Professor Charles Xavier.
Piotr used his super strength that he gained when he was in his steel form to help his family on their farm. Piotr had no plans to move away from his family or home. Charles knocked on the farmhouse's front door. It was answered by the metal morph.
"Hello Piotr."
"How do you know my name?" asked the Russian.
"May I come in?"
"Sure."
Piotr led Xavier into his living room. The rest of Piotr's family entered the living room. Xavier shook hands with each of them while Piotr introduced them.
"This is my mother, father, my sister Illyana and my brother Mikhail."
"Pleasure," said Xavier.
"Would you like some lemonade and cookies?" asked Piotr's mother.
"No thank you. I'm fine. The reason I came here is because I own a school for gifted children. Your son's special abilities have come to my attention and I have traveled all the way here to ask your son whether he would like to come and attend my school and better understand his powers," said Xavier.
"I am not sure," said Piotr. "Who would help out in the fields?"
"Piotr go and see the world we shall be fine. As for the help we shall just hire a few extra hands," said Piotr's father.
"If it is fine with my father I shall do as you request. I would like to better understand my powers," said Piotr.
Xavier stood up and shook his new student's hands along with his parents'.
"I shall see you at the airport tomorrow morning," said Xavier smiling.
'Piotr joined my other two students and that's when they began their lessons. I taught them the basic lessons and also genetics and how they gained their incredible powers. The lessons in the 'Danger Room' often went long into the night. The Danger Room was used for training by the use of holograms. The next student I was to approach was the first I had discovered in America. The mutant was called Jean Grey. Her mutant abilities included telekinesis, which meant she could move things with her mind and telepathy. Jean Grey's abilities became apparent when a car hit her friend and Jean's mind was trapped inside her dying friend's head. From the diary of Professor Charles Xavier.
Jean lived in an average house with two normal parents. Charles Xavier sat in the Grey's living room. He sat on the couch across from the vivid red haired teenager.
"Miss Grey, I have a school in New York that you may benefit from. It is a school for young teenagers who are gifted with special abilities."
"You mean for freaks," said Jean.
"Jean!" said her mother.
"Some people may call them that but they are more like genetic misfits. I have three more students that go to my school."
"I don't think you get it Mr. Xavier. Jenny is dead! She's not coming back, I was in her head as it slowly began to get dark," Jean cried. Xavier nodded and picked a mobile phone up from beside him. Xavier dialed a few numbers.
"Kurt could you come inside please?" Xavier said down the phone and then switched it off. In a puff of purple smoke and a smell of brimstone, Kurt arrived. The Grey's jumped in surprise at the sudden appearance of a boy covered in blue fur.
"Well done Kurt you are getting the hang of it now." Xavier said to the German mutant. "Jean this is Kurt one of my students. Please do not be alarmed by his appearance he means no harm."
"He's hideous!" said Jean. Kurt's tail dropped and his eyes began to water.
"Kurt wait." the Xavier began but Kurt had already teleported.
"Jean that boy was just as lost and confused as you are there was no need to say such things about him," Xavier said infuriated.
"Do not talk to my daughter like that!" said Jean's father. "I think I better go!" said Xavier getting to his feet and striding out of the house.
'I realize now the mistake I made with Jean Grey. I lost my temper and I should never do that while trying to get a student to attend my school. That is it for now, the weekend is coming up. I think I shall have a well- deserved rest with my new students before trying to attract more. From the diary of Professor Charles Xavier.
