You Never Know
The Recruit
Roz walked down the path with her friends Megan and Emily as quietly as they could, they were not going to be surprised by Andy and George again. They heard a rustle in the bushes… "It's them," Emily hissed.
----------Back at Xavier's--------
"Logan, I have found traces of mutant capability in Highbanks, Ohio, but you must be quick she's not alone." Xavier said urgently.
-----------Highbanks-------------
"Quick guys, hide down here." Megan pointed under a bridge that had long since been covered with water. They heard large footsteps thump across the bridge.
"That's not Andy and George." Emily whispered beginning to stand up.
"I know, but I think we should stay down here, I just have a feeling." Roz whispered back. The other two nodded, but it didn't matter, Sabertooth had smelled them and was about to jump under the bridge when he heard.
"George, where do you think they are?" Andy asked
"I don't know, I think they went that way, probably the opposite way we went." George replied.
"Oh, no," Megan mouthed, "There's Andy and George."
"Who're you two," the voice above them growled.
"We're visitors of this park," Andy said, not wanting to reveal his name.
"Well I have business here, so leave."
"Just a second, we're looking for someone." George replied bravely. The girls heard the man walk forward most likely towards George and then the heard a big thump and George yell in pain. Through the crack they could see George slumped on the ground and the tall man go towards Andy. Right as he swung back to punch Andy a man jumped out of nowhere and tackled the tall man.
Roz, Megan, and Emily jumped out from under the bridge and went over to see if George and Andy where alright. George was still on the ground holding the right side of his face and Andy was standing in the same spot, eyes wide open.
"George, how're you feeling?" Emily asked, watching the man who jumped out of nowhere fight the man who hit George. "You think you can leg it a bit, we need to get out an' fast." George nodded and the five started to sprint away into a cave that was covered by trees.
"Anyone confused by that?" Megan asked.
"Yeah!" The other four chorused.
Andy finally out of shock. "That thing was looking for one of you three. He must have been, 'cause when we got there he did not look like he was soon going to get off that bridge-" he cut his sentence off short when he heard more rustling at the front of the cave.
"Go back far." Andy said to the girls. "We can't do much but there might be an exit."
"Andy, we may be girls but we are not going to leave you alone with that." Roz said bravely. They didn't have anytime to discuss it further because a pair of metal claws came ripping through the trees in front of the cave.
"Shit." George said defeated.
"Alright kids, I'm not going to hurt you, I just need to talk to," He took out a slip of paper, "Rosaline Aisel."
"Why?" Megan said stepping up.
"Because this is between me and her."
"No, we're between you and her." Andy said as he and George stepped in front of Logan.
"Well, she'll tell us anyway, you might as well tell it to her in front of us." Megan said.
"Ok kid, I will, you're friend Rosaline is a mutant." Logan said, expecting the kids to step away from there friend or say that he must be mistaken but instead-
"Well duh," A blonde girl said (Emily).
"We found that out, today actually." The brunette said (Megan).
"About an hour ago it would have been a shocker though." A boy a little shorter than Logan piped in.
"But it did scare the heck out of George and the girls when we found out." A spiky headed boy said.
"Andy you were shocked too." Megan said.
"Any way," Roz interrupted. "What of me being a mutant."
Logan looked at a girl who looked not much over five foot with jet black hair and eyes that were grey in color, "We think you need to come to our school so you don't put anyone in danger with your abilities." Logan explained simply.
"Right, well I think I'm good here." Roz said trying to walk around the man.
"I don't think I can let you do that, you might become a danger to your friends." Roz looked at her friends.
"I'll take a look at this school of yours, but if I find you're tricking me….you may have claws, but I have a few tricks of my own." At this George and Megan smiled.
"I'm not making any trouble."
"So far it seems that way, I do want to thank you for saving us from that beast back there."
"No problem, what're you five doing out here anyway?"
"Camping." Emily put in.
"What're we supposed to tell your foster parents Roz?" Andy asked.
"Nothing, they won't care." She answered and she turned around to Megan who looked like she was going to cry.
"What's up?"
"Will we get to see you again?"
"Of course, I'm not even sure if I'll be staying at that school. But I better go now so I can find out quick, see you guys soon." She said giving them a hug before she walked off with Logan.
"By the way, name's Logan." He held out his hand.
"Name's Roz," she said doing the same.
They walked onto a small black helicopter and took off. They arrived in Bayville after a few hours of flying. She walked behind Logan through a fence and into a mansion looking place.
"Hello, my name is Charles Xavier and this is my school for gifted youngsters." A man in a wheelchair greeted Roz as she came in the building.
"My name's Roz Aisel." She said holding her hand out and shaking Charles hand.
"Would you like a tour of the house to see if you'd like to stay?" Xavier suggested.
"Um, sure, but I'm not saying anything for sure."
"Of course you're not."
Charles showed her around the house, and Roz immediately noticed the lack of other people.
"They are at school." Charles answered her thoughts.
"Oh- wait how'd you know I was thinking that, you're a tricky one."
"It's my mutation, telepathy."
"I see, it must get interesting at times," She smiled.
"This house gets interesting at some times, I hope you will stay with us for a week, to see if we can help you with your abilities, and see if you'd like to stay a while longer than that." She agreed. "After they get home from school I'll have Jean show you around."
"Sounds good except for the last part, I prefer meet people at my own pace, I'm a bit timid at meeting people, I hope you don't mind."
"That's quite alright, how about Ororo will get you something to eat, and since you have had quite a day already you can sleep for a while if you'd like."
"I think I'll just get some sleep, maybe eat later." Charles nodded.
