X3: Children of the Atom
Logan and Ororo hopped on the Blackbird, and headed off for Miami, Florida. Ororo was ready and pumped for anything after her rampage in the Danger Room. Their first target was a girl named Brandi Wallace. She has the powers to control and create water at her disposal. They stopped at the Miami Beach Shore, and Ororo gave the Blackbird some cover with fog. It was 9 PM, and they headed out to the streets of Miami. They walked over to Brandi Wallace's house. They found her sitting on her porch steps.
"Hey Brandi…" Ororo said.
"Umm…who are you?" Brandi asked.
"Don't worry, we're the good guys," said Logan.
"We know you can control water," Ororo said.
"So? What about it?" Brandi replied.
"Well, we have our own powers too," Ororo explained.
Ororo called up a gust of wind to lift Brandi off her ass and into the air next to them. Brandi panicked, and created water and hit Ororo in the face with it. Ororo lost control of the wind, and Brandi dropped to the floor. Brandi got up and started running.
"I hate these chases…" Logan said.
"I'll get her. You can handle the next one," Ororo said.
"Deal," said Logan.
Storm started walking behind Brandi, who kept running. She reached about four blocks, and tripped. Brandi created water around her, making it a shield. She had hoped that Ororo wouldn't walk through, but she did.
"You know those powers? We can help you control them a little better," Ororo said.
"Really? How? Are you one of those government freaks that would put me through tests…?" asked a panicked Brandi.
"Don't worry, you can trust us," Ororo stated.
"How do I know I can trust you?" Brandi asked.
Ororo called for another gust of wind, carrying Brandi up to four stories high. She then suddenly let go of the winds, and watched how Brandi would try to live. Brandi tried to break her fall by pushing water from her hands towards the ground, but that didn't slow her down. Ororo broke her fall by getting winds to carry her once more.
"See? We don't mean any harm," Ororo said.
"You almost killed me!" Brandi said.
"Well, your either going to have to trust us, or never explore the rest of your powers," said Ororo.
Ororo turned away and started to walk towards Logan. After a few steps, Brandi ran up to her and told her that she would go. Ororo smiled, and put her arm around Brandi's shoulder. They walked back to Logan, and Brandi got some clothes. Ororo used the excuse that Brandi was a very gifted artist, and was given a scholarship at a University in New York. It was very short notice to the parents, but they wanted what's best for Brandi. In a few minutes, they were onboard the Blackbird, headed for Seattle.
"Where are we going now?" asked Brandi.
"We have another pick-up we need to do before we go back home," Ororo explained.
Their next target was a boy named Kevin Cabrera. He had the powers to control earth, and had been trying to harness his powers since he was a kid. The Blackbird came to a halt next to a house, and Logan jumped off. He snuck into Kevin's room, and tried to persuade him to come with them. Kevin had no hesitation, and went right when Logan mentioned the name, Charles Xavier. Kevin had done researches on mutants, and the only name that came up was Charles Xavier. He left a note for his parents, which saved them the time. The Blackbird arrived at the school about an hour later, and Kevin and Brandi were sent to the Professor for briefings.
"Brandi Wallace, Kevin Cabrera, nice to finally meet you," Xavier said. "You didn't give Logan and Ororo any trouble did you?"
"Oh not really sir," Kevin answered.
"I did, sort of," Brandi said.
"Well, welcome to Xavier's School for Gifted Children. Here we do many things. We provide the normal academic courses, ones that you would get if you were in a normal school, and we also give the ability for our students to harness their mutant powers… See, everyone here has a power," Xavier explained.
"Cool," Kevin and Brandi said in unison.
"There were many I could have recruited, but I took interest in the two of you for a special reason. Brandi can control the element of water, while Kevin here can control the element of earth. I have seen this special power happen before, with Bobby Drake being able to control ice. He currently attends our school. The point is, we think that you would be great additions to our team, the X-Men, with some training of course. You two will be part of a special squadron, the Elemental squadron," Xavier proposed.
"I accept," Kevin said.
"Me too," Brandi said.
"Great. Now you two get sleep, and we'll discuss this further in the morning," Xavier said.
The two were sent to bed, and excited about what Xavier had just told them. Neither of them could sleep that night, as both were so excited about the forthcoming day. The next day, the Professor told Bobby, Brandi, and Kevin telepathically to meet him in his office. They all made their way through the halls and corridors to his office, not knowing what to expect. Brandi got there first, then Bobby, and then Kevin.
"Your all here, wonderful," Xavier said.
"What did you need Professor?" Bobby asked.
"Well, I have decided that I would teach the four of you personally about your powers," Xavier explained.
"Four of us?" asked Kevin.
"Yes," Xavier replied.
Just then, a girl came in through the door. To Bobby's dismay, she had a strange resemblance to his former friend, Pyro. She made her way to Professor Xavier, and gave him a hug. She then made her way back to where the others were, and stood there with them.
"Bobby, Brandi, Kevin, this is Trixie, John's brother," Xavier introduced.
"Your John's brother?" asked Bobby.
"Yes," Trixie announced.
"Nice to meet you," Brandi said.
"Now, all four of you have very unique powers. You can control elements, and I wanted to train all of you personally, to grow and be able to harness your powers quicker," Xavier explained. "But until the training is done, you cannot go out of the premises, as your powers will undergo massive changes within the next week or two."
"Yes, Professor," all of them said in unison.

Author's Note: Trixie is also a character that I created. She possesses the power to control fire, like her brother John. Another new member to this new group of Elementals will be added later on in the story, the one who can control Wind. Feedback!
