Beyond Mutation: Evolution Continues
It's been several years since the battle against Apocalypse and the actions of the X-Men and the Brotherhood are all but forgotten.
All the X-men have graduated from school either following a career as a teacher at Charles Xavier's School for the Gifted or have headed to university.
Joining forces once more Magneto and Mystique have rebuilt the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants and have been responsible for many terrorist attacks against the human governments around the world
And both Professor X and Magneto are looking for new recruits.
As she watched England quickly disappear behind the Jet. She felt a little queasy. Not knowing if it was something to do with her powers or traveling at Mach 2 she decided to ignore it.
She looked over to the pilot. He was a tough looking guy, the kind you expect to see in an old western movie. He caught her gaze and turned to look at her. She smiled sweetly, but he just grunted and turned back in his seat. The other guy was different. WAY different. He was gorilla like, covered in blue fur. He looked like something out of a 30's horror movie. Sighing Kim once again looked out the window toward her home. She couldn't even see Britain anymore. Sinking further into her seat her blonde dreadlocks fell into her face. She tried to blow them away, but they were too heavy to move. That didn't stop her trying and as she blew harder she started to annoy Logan
"Kid! Do you mind?" he asked without turning around
"Sorry" she said as she decided to use her hand to move her dreads. She smiled sweetly again, but he wasn't looking.
She sighed again looking out the window

Westchester, New York
As Jack entered the mansion for the first time he was surprised by the lack of students"I thought this was supposed to be a school. Where is everyone?" he asked still seeing no-one
"A lot of people we have approached have told us they don't want to join. They'd rather try and keep it a secret. Ah Mr. Wagner this is Jack Draven" he said seeing Kurt again
"Gutten tag Jack. I vill be teaching you languages"
"Oh...er...cool"
"Don't vorry. I am a good teacher. At least the professor lets me think that" he said as he and the professor laughed
"Well, we should get you to your room Jack. Would you excuse is Mr. Wagner?"
"Of course. I vill see you Monday Jack." he said before 'porting away
Jack coughed from the dust before following the professor toward a lift that led upstairs.
"We also have another student coming later today. She's your age." he said as the elevator door closed
"Yeah?" he said getting a nod for a reply
"Her name is Kimberley Raker. She has also just discovered her powers. You should have a lot in common" the doors opened once more and the 2 made their way down a hall
"Yeah? Where is she from?"
"Reading, England."
"Never heard of it." he said shrugging his shoulders
"It is quite a large town. In fact I believe it is a city now"
"Sorry" he said shrugging his shoulders again
Simply nodding the professor continued to head down the hall.
It was not long until the professor stopped outside a door
"This is your room. You have it to yourself for now, but you may need to share with a new student"
"Ok great" he said opening the door.
Jack looked on in awe. This room was huge. There were 3 beds, but he was the only one there. He was still mesmerized when the professor spoke once more
"I'll leave you to settle in. Your training begins at 7 am sharp" he said before moving down the hall
"Training?" he asked still staring into the room
"Yes. We are not just an academic institution. We also train mutants in using their gifts."
"How?" he said finally averting his gaze from the size of the room
The professor laughed slightly, making Jack feel slightly awkward
"You shall see tomorrow morning" he said before disappearing down the hall "But I suggest you get your rest"
Jack picked his suitcase up before entering the room and closing the door behind him

Auckland, New Zealand
"LEAVE ME ALONE!" A Chinese women shouts as several men start to close in on her "I'M WARNING YOU!"They all laughed until one guy was hit on the jaw by something. He falls back screaming in agony. As he looks up he sees something going into her arm
"I warned you" she said before another muscle came out wrapping around another guys leg. As she pulled him toward her at great speed, she ducked and the man hit someone behind her. She watched as all, but the man she struck first, ran away
"Do you want some more?" she asked
He laughed as his skin turned blue and his hair grew long and red. "Not exactly"

Westchester, New York
As the jet finally touched down Kim could feel her body tense up again. She'd seen mutants on TV and they were all big and/or scary."Come on kid. We got a lot more to do tonight than sit here" the scary pilot guy said
"Oh sorry" she said, but he ignored her continuing down the gangway
"I apologize for Logan. He can be a bit insensitive. I am Henry McCoy, but I am known as Beast"
'I wonder why?' she thought making her laugh a little
"What's funny?"
"Er...nothing. Just remembered a joke I heard the other day" she said trying to cover up
"Ok...Anyway let me show you into the mansion" he said leading her into the hanger.
"Whoa" she said looking into the large empty space.
Hank chuckled "You haven't seen anything yet" he said leading her into the mansion
As he did they passed the danger room. They heard some loud explosions and heavy bangs from robots crashing on the ground
"What the hell is going on in there?" she asked as another explosion nearly knocked her over
Hank quickly looked at a small screen next to the door
"It's Logan. He sometimes takes things to far, but with his powers he can afford to" before she could ask Hank answered her "He has a heightened healing ability. If his bones could break they'd heal in days, if not hours"
"Sounds useful" she said as they continued into the mansion "So do we all go through the exploding room thing?"
"Yes, but they will not be so...intense as Logan's" Another explosion was heard
"Is he insane?"
"Nearly. Come. You should get to your room, you need to get used to the time difference."
"I am feeling tired" she said as they continued into the mansion

Stonestown, San Fransisco
"No man, no. Y-y-you can't do this to me. You're my best friend" an Afro-American guy said walking back from another
"You betrayed us man!" he said pulling a gun out
"You expect me to let you kill my brother?"
"When your brother is a Crip I expect YOU to kill him" he said cocking the pistol
The guy started to walk back
"See you in hell J-Bone" he said firing
The guy covered his face as quickly as he could, but a few seconds later he couldn't feel any pain. Slowly dropping his arms he saw the bullet suspended infront of him. He looked at it in astonishment. That's when a man in a cape floated down from the rooftops
"Good Evening Mr. Morris" he said as he landed behind J-Bone
"Are you...?"
"I am stopping the bullet, yes" he said in a commanding voice
"How?" J-bone asked still totally astonished
"I am the Master of Magnetism, Magneto" and with that the bullet shot straight through his attackers chest before turning around and going into the back of his head.
Magneto laughed. Seeing his best friends body begin to be torn to pieces, by a single bullet J-bone fled. Seeing him Magneto flew after the boy.
"Alloy! Come here my friend"
"NO WAY!" he shouted as he created huge metal chains wrapping around Magneto
Magneto shook his head as the chains flew off and wrapped around J-bone's legs. He trips and falls flat on his face. Turning onto his back he sees Magneto coming down reaching out his hand, but he quickly creates a huge bubble of metal around himself.
With a simple wave of his hand the bubble rips apart revealing a totally metallic version of J-Bone. His 'armour' covered in large spikes.
"Come boy. I don't wish to harm you." he said lifting the boy into the air "I'm here to offer you sanctuary"
"I don't want it!" he said firing several spikes toward him.
He easily stops them though
"The police are coming. How will you explain your friend?" Magneto said throwing the spikes into the dead body. "How will a black, gang member mutant stand a chance of getting away? You have no choice"
J-bone dropped his head as his Armour began to drip from him landing in a puddle under neath him. Still tasting blood from being tripped he quickly wiped his mouth before looking back up at Magneto.
"Come boy" Magneto said extending his hand once more. "Join me"

West Chester, New York
"...and this will be your room" Beast said as he opened the door for Kim
"Wow....big" was all she could manage to say
Beast laughed as he left her to settle in
Walking into her room the size became even more apparent.
'I could get lost in here' she thought as she chose the bed closest to the window for her own.
Starring out the window she saw a women with long red hair and a guy with short brown walking through the grounds hand in hand.
'He's pretty cute' she thought before lying down on her bed and drifting off to sleep.
She slept for a couple of hours before waking up. She decided it might be a good idea to see if she could find the bathroom, but on her way she bumped into someone. A tallish guy with brown hair and green eyes
"Hey are you ok? I'm so sorry" he said extending his hand to pick her up.
"I'm ok." she said getting to her feet by herself. Totally ignoring his hand. "You should watch were your going" she said dusting herself off
"That's quite an attitude you have..."
"Kim Raker"
"Oh your Kim Raker. The professor told me about you. I'm Jack. Jack Draven"
"Well Jack-Jack Draven do you know were the bathroom is?"
"I've been looking for about 20 minutes. That's the bad thing about mansions"
She giggled a little "So were you from?"
"I'm from Venice"
"The city off love?" she said mockingly "You don't sound it" she said before they started down the hall opening random doors, all empty bedrooms
"No Venice in LA. Anyway isn't Paris the city of love"
"No Paris is the city of annoying, ignorant French people"
"So what is Reading?"
"The city of rock. What else?"
"Sounds more like a place you make red paint"
"Er..yeah. So we looking for bathrooms Hollywood?"
He laughed a little
"I'm not Hollywood, trust me. My life ain't so bight and shiny"
"Did your parents throw you on the street like mine or something?"
"No, they died before I knew them. I've been with my Aunt Flo ever since, but she died recently so I'm all alone"
"So now your the star pupil?" she said sarcastically
"Well since we're the only 2 here so I guess so" she laughed a little until they finally got to the bathroom
"Ladies first" he said with a smile
"Thanks Hollywood." she said as she went for the door.
Before she entered he quickly created an orange bubble throwing it at her. She stopped were she stood while he walked past her and into the bathroom. Once he finished he came back and pulled the orange bubble out of her. It disappeared and she started moving again. She closed the door behind her, not before winking at Jack.
He laughed before he tried to remember which way his room was.
