Disclaimer: I do not own X men. The X men parts come a little later. This
story actually started out as an English hero story in March 2002.

White Cockatoo
Kelsey used the little walkie-talkie thing in the police car to call for help. She settled back to wait, but it wasn't long before there were police everywhere.
There was a huge drama but on the plus side, officers Nelson and Hahn were not dead, as she had previously thought. They were wounded, Hahn shot in the chest and Nelson in the lower torso. A man had been ripped apart and Kelsey was buried in guilt until she remembered what the man had been doing when she had hit him.
Kelsey learned that the two other shapes that she had seen were drug dealers. The police officers had interrupted a drug deal accidentally and been shot for their troubles.
The little boy was removed from Kelsey's care and she felt a tug at her heart as he was wheeled into an ambulance. She hoped that he would be alright, but knew she could do no more for him.
She was sitting in the back of an ambulance with a blanket around her, clutching a mug of coffee. When a police officer walked past, Kelsey asked her politely, "Look, could someone please take me back to the orphanage? I've got school in the morning."
The policewoman looked at Kelsey like she had just sprouted horns so Kelsey patted her head just to make sure that she hadn't anything out of the ordinary on the top of her head.
After the police had taken Kelsey's statement, which said that "the big scary men were terrorising the little boy" and "they hit me, I blacked out and they were gone." She was reluctantly allowed to leave. Kelsey was a really bad liar, and she didn't think the police really bought her story but there was nothing much she could do about that. She couldn't very well tell them the truth, could she?
The police took her back to the orphanage. By this time it was after nine o'clock. She went through the motions of getting ready for bed, too tired to think.
It was only when she was lying on her bed in the dark that she really contemplated what had happened. She had rescued a little boy. She had turned into a buffalo. She had beaten up the baddies and become a hero. She'd also become very tired, so she went to sleep.
A few days later, the little boy's relatives contacted her. They thanked her profusely and told her that they would bring the little boy to visit her regularly. His name was Dennis Roberts, they said. He had two sets of grandparents and numerous aunts and uncles. Kelsey tried her best not to be jealous but she still felt the bitterness. Sure, little Dennis would never know his parents, but at least he still had a family.
Kelsey had to be content with the fact that she got a few days off school.
