Chapter Two: Awakenings and Coincidences.
"You stupid child!" the woman yelled at the boy, she looked down at his small terror-filled face and felt only hate and anger for him. "Why can't you do anything right? I feed you! I clothe you! And all I ask for is for the house to be clean when I come home!" her fist met with his head and he fell to the floor. "I'm sorry, I tried, and I've been working all day! I really tried!" his eyes drifted to the woman's hand, which held in it a half empty bottle of an alcohol of some kind. "Tried my ass!" she yelled and hit him again, this time with the bottle and this time drawing blood, "Now get out!" she pointed at the door. The small, battered seven year old looked up at her in pain and confusion. "What?" "You heard me!" she then picked him up by the neck and threw him out the doorway and into the back ally, his head hit a rock, and the last thing he heard before he blacked out was a slam of a door.

"No!"
Liam shot up with a shout, to find the memory he had relived so many times, gone, but now there was a new nightmare he had to face.
The room was large and white, that was all that could be said for it, there were no defining characteristics except for how much it reminded Liam of a hospital room, hospital?
Suddenly realization dawned on Liam, as he remembered. What had happened exactly? What had happened to Damaris? Where was she? Where was HE?
Liam was not about to sit there and do nothing while who-knows-what was happening to Damaris. He shot out of bed, too worried to take notice that all he was wearing was a hospital robe, and fled out of the large metal doors at the far wall, he did take into notice, however, the large "X" that it was adorned with.
~What is this place? ~ He thought ~is this some kind of government agency or something? It's far too.metal to be a hospital. ~
He turned into another hallway that looked exactly the same as the last hallway and the one before that and the one before that.
~Okay, this is just too creepy~ he kept on walking though, he HAD to find Damaris, she was the only one he had ever cared about. As he pondered this, he didn't notice that someone was nearing the same corner he was nearing, a large, strong, Canadian someone.
"Oomph!" Liam crashed into Logan and fell to the floor.
"You better watch it squirt." Logan muttered and held out a hairy hand to Liam, but Liam scrambled backwards.
"Who are you? What-what is this place?"
"This is Xavier's school fer gifted youngsters, you must be Liam."
"School?" Liam had never been inside a school but had never imagined that a school would look like this, but he pushed these thoughts away for now.
"How did you know my name?" he asked the man who had not introduced himself yet.
Logan sighed gruffly.
"How 'bout you and I take a walk, it's gonna be a long story."

Professor Xavier looked around at his students, well, the older ones at least (Jean, Scott, Ororo, Kurt, Kitty and Evan), they were here so he could tell them about the new recruits he had found, and he wondered where to begin.
"While I was at cerebro a few hours ago it detected two new mutant signatures, by the names of Liam Anderson and Damaris Winters, their mutations are both very powerful and dangerous, they both became unconscious after their powers emerged and are now resting in the hospital wing on the lower level, they will awake shortly and when they do.." He looked at each member of the room to make it clear that they must listen "..I want you all to treat them as kindly and a hospitably as you can. We want them on our side, and if they leave Magneto will surely recruit them and that would be bad for all of us, do you all understand?" the room mumbled their "yes professors" simultaneously and some stood to leave, but before they could get out of their chairs, Kurt's voice asked.
"Um, excuse me professor?"
"Yes, Kurt?"
"If you do not mind me asking, what ARE their powers?"
The professor mentally slapped himself.
"Oh yes, I almost forgot. The skin on Damaris's hands can project a type of acid, which can burn at the touch, she also has fangs that can shoot venom and Liam.." He paused a second and them turned to look at Storm, who stared confusedly back at him.
"Liam can control weather." The room suddenly went dead silent.
"Bu-But how is that possible?" storm stuttered, her face had now gone pale.
The professor shook his head, "There is such a thing as two mutants possessing the same x-gene, but it is highly irregular. The possibility of such an occurrence is 1 in 100. I suppose Liam was the one."
The room was so quiet, you could hear a pin drop in china.
"So.. Like, what will their code names be?" kitty spoke up, breaking the silence.
The professor smiled.
"I think we should wait for that until we meet them...." suddenly, his brow furrowed as he was sent a mind message.
~Hey Chuck, the Liam boy's awake, I told him everythin' about this place. We'll go get the girl and be up there in a sec'~
".....Which might be quite soon."
