Title: New Mutant
Part Eight: Powers Revealed
Author: Kayson (My new name! Thanks mom!)
Disclaimer: Nope, still don't own the movie, the books, the comics, or the cartoons and to make a claim on them is to insult everyone who worked so hard. The only thing I claim is this story, Amber, Max and Chris, who you really haven't been introduced to yet.
Summary: Okay, we get into the end of Chris's class and Amber speaks (wow) and then we jump to a scene after dinner involving intruders (dun dun dun).
A/N: Heidi-ho. I know everyone wants me to reveal Amber's exact powers, but that's not going to happen just yet. Of course, if you read carefully enough you will have seen that she has super-speed, and you will see that she has telekinesis and some sort of sound/shock wave effect when she wants. If anyone has seen the episode of Spider-man where he meets Wonder Woman and Captain America and they're really old and they're trying to protect this area you'll understand clearer how it should look. If not, I'm sorry. So anyway, on with the story and enjoy.

" So, now that you've been here a couple of days, want to give us a demonstration?" Bobby was standing with his and Rogue's group of friends. Amber was reading a book during the lunch break.
" Not really no." She never once looked from the page she was reading.
" Why not?" Once more Jubilee spoke up. Amber didn't like her all that much, which was why she bristled a little at the question.
" Because I don't feel like it, okay?" She had closed her book on her finger, marking the page.
" We'll tell you what we can do if you'll tell us what you can do." Rogue was once more the voice of reason.
" Not interested." Amber had gone back to reading her book.
" Why are you so..." Another student with blue hair apparently couldn't find the words he was looking for.
" So what?" Amber stood up to face the group of six students. " I don't feel like revealing my innermost abilities to you so back off, okay? Just leave me alone." Stalking through the crowd, Amber went back in the building to go to her next class.
" She is such a snob."

Chris had taken over teaching history. His students actually liked him, he seemed to make it interesting.
" Now that that long lesson is over. I have a question for you. Why do we need to study history?"
At least once a week he asked the class that question or a similar one. Most of the class raised their hands expect for two or three, including Amber, in the back.
" Oh come on, someone who hasn't said anything. Amber, why don't you enlighten us. Usually the quietest ones are the wisest."
Amber straightened up in her seat and cleared her throat. " You study history so you don't make the same mistakes. Seems to me like the world needs to re-study World War I, a little more specifically, Nazi Concentration camps."
Amber spoke her last syllable as the bell rang and she shoved from the table where she was seating, running from the room before the bell tolled one last time.
~~~~~
The rest of the day passed without incident and after dinner, the students gathered in the large living room. Amber was talking to Professor Xavier when Logan walked in, talking to Scott about his motorcycle.
After picking up Amber, the two had reached a mutual truce. They still didn't like each other, but they were fighting twenty-four/seven. Everyone was settled down and doing their own thing an hour later.
Logan smelled something that didn't belong, coming to attention, alerting the rest of the X-men. Amber whispered something in the Professor's ear, standing when she was done.
^*Plug your ears. Everyone*^ Professor Xavier's voice ran cool and calm through everyone's minds. Obeying without question everyone but Amber plugged their ears.
" Amber?" Logan questioned, but the girl wasn't paying attention.
Her eyes had glassed over, much like Storm's did when she was going to use her powers. Opening her mouth a sound wave emitted, not high enough to break the glass but enough to annoy everyone, even with their ears plugged. When Amber finally closed her mouth, another series of screaming could be heard. Three people fell from spots in the ceiling, where they had been crawling around.
Lifting her hand in front of her, eyes still glassed over, Amber's palm trembled, calling the bodies to her. The boy's ears were bleeding, and they were crying from the pain that the sound had inflicted.
" Intruders." She whispered, a slight reptilian-like voice emerging. Calling rope from somewhere else in the room, Amber tied them up without once moving.
Taking a half step backward and shaking her head, Amber's eyes cleared and returned to their normal vibrant gold color. She stared at the boys in horror, and stifling a cry, ran from the room.
" Amber!" Professor Xavier called out, distressed at the girl's attitude but it was Storm and Logan who followed to make sure she was all right. The room was silent and Scott's next comment, quiet as it was, was heard clearly by everyone.
" I guess we know what her powers are."
And just as clearly heard was Professor Xavier's response. " Hardly."
