X-Men: Code Omega Part 3

A stern voice sounded through the school with out making a single decibel of sounds. It stated simply, "Welcome to Xavier Institute for Gifted Youngsters, there will be an assembly in the main audience chamber in 30 min. Please report there." Seconds earlier Jennie had awoken due to the sunlight filtering into her room through the half closed curtains. She looked over at her roommate who had apparently been wakened by the voice that, Jennie assumed, had been projected into the minds of every single student in the school. It was painfully obvious who the voice belonged too; Professor Charles Xavier was a supremely powerful telepath, and head of the school. It was quite and effective way to wake people, though, Jennie was quite impressed. Now she was sure that her roommate, Jamie, had been awakened by the voice because the first thing Jamie said was, "Who in the world said that?!" "Oh Sapphire, isn't it quite obvious? It was Professor Xavier," Jennie made it sound like anyone with more intelligence than a dog should have known that. "Jeez Ruby you don't have to be mean," Jamie was very sensitive during her early morning adjustment period, but after that her cold exterior shields were activated yet again. "Well.Let's just get ready and go see what this guy wants," and with that Jamie and Jennie proceeded to quickly transform their quite frightening exteriors to something quite more presentable. Time flew by quiet quickly and before either of them had realized, it was time to head down to the main audience chamber. Neither of the girls had known where it was until this morning again the work of Professor Xavier, thought Jennie. "Lead the way Ruby, I think we might get lost if I try to direct us," Jamie's bluntness was quite deserved; however, she hadn't much of a sense of direction. "Follow me, and do try to keep up," Jennie was known to be very grumpy and curt with people when she was awoken too early.

It had been a long night for Thomas Stanley, the arrival at the school was filled with various mishaps and then he learned of his rooming mate. None other than the notorious Dr. Allosaurus just thinking of his name Thomas grew tears of heavy, uncontrollable laughter. Not long ago Thomas heard the same voice that he knew his two friends had also heard. Charles Xavier was a reclusive millionaire who one couldn't help but here about, though, you never learned much more than that fact. From students he had heard the Xavier was a very powerful telepath; some even said he was the most powerful mutant on Earth. If only that were true.Thomas knew of a mutant much more powerful, but this mutant was one of the sinister sort. Not many people knew about this mutant, although, he was sure that Xavier had encountered him before. This mutant was possibly the first mutant to ever exist, though not confirmed, many believed he was a deity or something of the sort. But enough with his useless blabber; it was time for Thomas to head down to the assembly. Because his roommate was in the hospital wing Thomas made this journey alone hoping, perhaps, to meet up with Jennie and Jamie along the way.

Jamie was still unbelievably tired as she walked through the endless corridors of the Xavier Institute. She was awestruck at the size of the building and at the sheer grandness of every single inch of the building. Finally Jamie sighted a large group of students up ahead who were all centered around a large oak door. She knew this was the door that leads to the main audience chamber where the Professor would make his great speech of the day. Glancing about the group she sighted not Thomas, but the heartless prefect Thomas had had the scuffle with last night. Hoping above anything that the prefect would not sight her just a thing happened. "Why if it isn't the trouble maker from last night?" the prefect began speaking as she neared Jamie and Jennie, picking at her mono-brow like it was a scab, itching to come off, "Tell me what you're doing here and I might not have to report you." "None of you business you disgusting hairy freak! Why don't you just go away and leave us in peace!" Jennie unexpected outburst must have been triggered by Jamie's description of the events of last night to her earlier that morning. "Watch your mouth missy! I happen to be a school prefect and that means you will obey me!" it was clear that she was angry when her eyebrow started to swell to unnatural sizes. It began to sprout hundreds of extra hairs and began to extend toward Jamie's neck. Before the prefect could wrap the eyebrow around Jamie's neck the tempture in the room dropped to a cold -10 Celsius and the eyebrow was instantly frozen in a block of ice. Jennie glanced over and sure enough Jamie had her arm extended, pointing at the eyebrow. Jamie's eyes had turned from dark ebony to icy blue, as they always did when she used her powers. The prefect was in utter shock when this happened and she let out a shriek of pain. Jennie, not to be left out, began to use her powers by building up energy for an outburst of her elemental fury. All this stopped however when Thomas appeared at the end of the long corridor. He had just caught sight of the incident and immediately vanished in a blast of electrical energy. Moments later another blast of electricity came from the nearest electric light and Thomas reappeared. "Jamie! Jennie! You guys better knock it off! You know what Logan said!" Thomas' feign was not too convincing to his closest friends, and it was broken when one of the prefect's friends came to give her backup. The short black haired girl sported jet black glasses and an enormous hand which reached toward Jamie. Sensing trouble Thomas sent out a bolt of electricity to intercept the hand and was rewarded by a shrill scream from the girl. It looked as if her hand had been badly burned by Thomas' vicious electric attack. "That will surely be enough from all 5 of you!" Thomas felt like he had been put under heavy anesthic, his whole body was numb and any attempt to use his power failed utterly, "This is ridiculous! I won't have students running amok fighting with their fledgling powers!" "What's going on Jean 's someone hurt?" Professor Logan's voice was unmistakable, Thomas assumed he had come from another corridor, but because of the other teacher's paralyzing power, he couldn't see where Logan had come from. "I don't believe so Logan, but I know that these 5 have some explaining to do! Quickly if you don't mind!" and almost like magic Thomas felt his powers and his body return to him. "I can explain everything Professor Grey," the prefect's friend had a look of smugness on it, the like of which Thomas had never seen, "Callie was simply trying to make conversation with these two girls when the one with the weird eyes attacked her." "That's not exactly what happened Professors," Jamie interrupted quickly, "I was merely defending myself from this.umm.Callie is it? When she attacked me with her weirdo eyebrow." "If you hadn't have insulted me in the first place I could have ignored your ignorance! Honestly, I have the authority to inflict punishment upon those that don't follow the rules," this Callie girl was quite the piece of work.Thomas had never seen someone so arrogant and egotistical. "Ms. Ellsworth regardless of what you think, prefects don't have the authority to punish anyone with their powers," this ray of sunlight from Professor Grey was oddly refreshing, "Whatever your quarrel was it was not appropriate to use your powers to attack these girls.they had every right to defend themselves.as for you," she motioned towards Thomas, "what is your involvement in this matter?" "Jamie and Jennie," Thomas said while pointing towards them, "are my friends and I was concerned that they would be hurt so I thought it best that I assist them." "I like the loyalty Mr. Stanley, but timing and judgment is also a quality I find most useful," Logan was indeed quite wise, "perhaps you should just fetch a teacher the next time something like this happens?" "Yes, that is true Professor Logan, Jamie, Jennie, and Thomas you three may proceed to the assembly I will deal with Ms. Ellsworth and Ms. Bunsu," Professor Grey's quick and short response was cold enough to make Thomas' blood freeze, but he knew it was time for him to leave. "Come on guys let's go to the assembly," Thomas simply stated as Code Omega entered the main audience chamber with the rest of the students. He glanced back and saw Professors Logan and Grey giving the two prefects a stern look and heard some garbled yelling from Grey's side of the group. Oh well, best to leave it alone Thomas thought as he stepped into the chamber with Jamie and Jennie by his sides.
