Chapter Two
So, I found out all about this wonderful school. It is called the Xavier Institute. It is a place where mutants can go and learn how to control their powers. I knew I has read allot about the place in the news paper. There is a high school nearby where they students attend classes during the day. I was excited. This was a place I could go and not be criticized or stereotyped.
"So, do you think you would like to come to the Institute?" Jean Asked.
"Of course. I would love to. But can I ask a huge favor of you?" I replied.
"Sure," she said, "Anything."
"Can my best friend come with me because we can't go one day without being separated?"
"I don't see why not. We can go and ask her guardians right now."
We paid and left for Stephanie's house. When we got there I knocked on the door. Her grandmother answered the door.
"Hello Mrs. Briggs. Can I please speak with Stephanie for a moment? It will only be a few minutes," I said politely.
"Sure, let me get her," She said.
She then proceeded to walk up the stairs to Steph's Room. A few minutes later Steph came to the door and walked outside, closing the door behind her.
"Who's the girl?" she asked.
"Steph, I would like you to meet Miss Jean Gray. She is here to take me to the Xavier Institute. Its up in New York. I am going to go to school there and everything. They're going to teach me how to use and control my abilities," I explained.
"So wait… you're leaving?!" she exclaimed.
"Well, I asked Jean and she said you could come with me. If your Gram, Bonnie, and Gerry say you can," I replied.
"Awesome, I finally get the hell out of here!!" she yelled.
"And there are a lot of cute boys there too." Jean added.
"Really?!?!" Steph and I both yelled.
The Jean and I walked into her kitchen. She went up to get her Gram. Aunt, and Uncle. While she was gone I told Jean not to tell her we were going to a Mutant School, and to make something up.
"Gram Bonnie Gerry, This is Jean Gray," Steph said.
Jean stood up and walked to then. She then went on to shake all of their hands.
"Mr. And Mrs. Daley, Mrs. Briggs, I want to ask you if you would allow Stephanie to Accompany Me and Matt to New York. There is a new school there. We offer the best education in the country. There is also no charge to attend this school. We are funded by an anonymous benefactor. Your Niece and Grand Daughter will be well taken care of. We take them shopping many times so you don't have to worry about buying clothes. All expenses are taken care of."
"This sounds too good to be true. But we would be happy to have her attend this school. Maybe she wouldn't fail math," Bonnie said.
"She really can go?!?" I exclaimed, "Wahoo!"
Steph and I hugged and ran up to her room. We immediately started packing for the trip. I told Steph that I would be back in an hour. I had to pack my own stuff. Jean pulled the car around and we left. Minutes later we arrived at my house. Jean, who is a telekinetic floated us up to my bedroom window. I then began to pack all my things. After I was finished Jean floated us back down and we loaded up the Hummer and left.
A little while later we arrived back at Steph's house. Now I called her and told her we were outside and to meet us at the door. We got to the door and she opened it. We walked up to her room and headed inside.
"Now Steph," Jean started, "Every room pretty big so you can bring anything you want."
This helped a lot because now she just threw everything in boxes. She soon finished and we said our good byes. We loaded the truck and we were on our way to the airport. Steph and I fell asleep on the ride to the airport but when we awoke we were ready to take off. Jean must've floated us in the jet.
"The institute has its own Jet. Lots of methods of transportation also," Jean stated.
It only took a half an hour to get to the institute. Considering we only live in New Jersey. As we looked out the window we saw the gorgeous mansion. This was our new home.
