Finally got up the OC chapter. Thanks to everyone who sent the OCs in! Here is the owners and their charcters names: Envee Waterman (lilmiznormal) Phoebe Night (werewolflass) Danny Tolusky (wierd dot wierd) Paul & his brothers (paultammas21) Petra (Ares). Thanks again for everyone's very detailed submissions (especially paultammas21, that was long, thanks)!

DemonRogue: Ororo's transformation was more like Jean's. Duncan and Taryn's spirits were taken over, but the Phoenix took over Storm. So it's more like how Jean is controled. So is Storm now. But not as much. Hope that answers your question.

=================================================================

Professor Charles Xavier's gaze never left the gray skies for ten minutes. The fact that he had lost another student; a friend, made him feel the sadness that seemed to play in the sky. Scott was in a coma, Jean had become the Phoenix, and now Ororo was just one of the cosmic foe's minions.

It's time to find some more allies. As much as it pains me to bring in these new youngsters, and have them fight, I know that they are needed, for all of them are in danger. Everyone is, if Phoenix is not stopped.

Charles sighed, and wheeled out of his office, and made his way down to the lower levels of the institute. There he found Cerebro, the one machine that could help him find and save so many mutants from such scary fates now that humans knew of their kind. Charles closed his eyes, as he sent the helmet like object on his head, and waited as Cerebro activated.

Soon, pictures of mutants popped up on a floating screen in front of him. There was two females and one male, each having already exhibited their mutant powers. Charles figured that they were hiding now, fearful or rebellious.

Charles studied the three teens more, and then decided.

I just hope they don't mind fighting a fight that could save the world.

Breakfast was gloomy, similar to the gray sky outside. Everyone was at the table, except Ororo, Hank, Scott, Jean, the Professor, and the missing mutants. Nobody asked questions, they just ate what was in front of them. Kurt, Logan, Ray, Amara, and Betsy were along one side of the long dining room table, and Jamie, Bobby, Roberto and Jubilee sat quietly across from them. The scent of steaming scrambled eggs, smoking bacon, and simmering grits filled the air. Everyone still kept his or her silence though.

Soon, when everyone was cleaning their plates of whatever was left, the Professor wheeled into the room, an expression of deep thought plastered on his face.

"I have made contact with three new mutants, who I'm hoping will join our cause. I want everyone to look happy, and not sad. I don't want the new students to feel grief-stricken like the rest of you. Once they are settled in, we will form are plan. I expect that will happen late tonight. So, I want all of you to talk with each other and try to just be yourselves, despite the awful situation."

A few heads bobbed, and a few people agreed. The Professor sighed, and started to exit the room.

"One of the new recruits is expected to arrive in forty minutes, so I hope that will be enough time." The Professor added, before leaving the room. Just like when he had first entered, everyone's faces where just as gloomy.

Forty minutes later, all of the X-men that had been at breakfast, joined by the Professor and Mr. McCoy, stood in front of the foyer entrance, awaiting their new arrival.

A dark gray truck pulled up to the institute's gates, causing everyone's attention to glance over that way. The truck moved forward once the gates opened, and parked right next to the statue of the angel in the fountain. Two doors opened. The students watched intently, as a teenage girl and an older boy stepped out.

"Everyone", the Professor started. "I'd like you to meet Envee Waterman."

Envee Waterman stood with her hands on her hips, and her gaze flashing about. Hey eyes went over every one of the teens in front of her. A couple of the guys cost her a second look. A smirk lit on her face, as she brushed a green bang from in front of her face. One of the guys with blackish-brown hair, and a playful smirk in particular.

Hmmm, he looks Brazilian, and tall, and really hot. Envee kept her gaze on the guy who was now glancing at her. Oooo, so he has the flirty gaze too.

"So like, what's your power?" A girl with brown hair that fell just passed her shoulders asked. Envee's gaze shifted to her.

"I anyone would like to be a test dummy, I'd sure be obliged to show you all." Envee answered sweetly. She hoped the Brazilian would step forward. The Professor started to object, but to Envee's delight, the guy she had been gazing at stepped forward.

"I'm your test dummy. Name's Roberto, and I don't flinch easily." The Brazilian stated coolly.

Well then Roberto, I hope this will impress you.
 Envee instructed Roberto to stand to the side, and close his eyes. Once he did, she lifted her hands in the air, filling her palms with a vacuum of air. Envee make sure not to pack too much of a punch. She didn't want to knock the guy out.

Placing her palms in front of her, Envee released the air, which exploded from her palms in a strong force. The blast of air hit Roberto in the chest and caused him to do an unintentional back flip. He slid along the ground about ten yards back.

Some of the others gasped, while Envee stood proud.

"Pretty neat power you got there." Roberto remarked, as he got to his feet. Envee smirked playfully as he made his way toward her.

"Yes, thank you, Envee, for the demonstration." The Professor added reluctantly. "As you all can see, Envee does have a strong power."

"That being said, you guys now know what'll happen if you mess me up." Envee stated with her fist shaking in front of her. The Professor gave her a disapproving look. "Sorry Prof, just trying to get my point across." Envee replied, giving the group a goofy smile. Some of them had already taken it bad.

"Roberto, please be kind enough to show Mrs. Waterman to her room. It is the one next to Jubilee and Rahne's room. I'm sure you know the way." The Professor stated. Roberto blushed, embarrassed, but then he took Envee's arm.

"Right this way, miss." He answered sweetly. Envee gave him a flirtatious smile, but then noticed her brother glaring at Roberto.

"By bro, see ya later." She called, following the crowd moving inside. As she watched the Professor move over to her brother, Envee smiled happily as she let Roberto lead her around.
This place might not be so bad after all.



The next recruit came an hour later. But instead of everyone gathering outside, the X-men, along with the newly joined Envee, were awaiting the new arrival inside the foyer. The doors opened, revealing a person in a soaking wet raincoat with a hood over their head. The doors closed, sealing off some of the thunderous sound of the impending thunderstorm. Rain continued to pour down the glass doors like a blanket.

"X-men, I would like you to welcome Phoebe Night. I'd rather not have her demonstrate her powers though." The Professor glanced at Envee who just smiled innocently.

Phoebe pulled her hood back to reveal a pale face and matching electric purple eyes and shoulder length hair. She pulled off her raincoat, and smiled awkwardly at the group.

"Hi." She said quietly. Most of the X-men nodded a hello back.

"The reason I did not want Phoebe's power demonstrated is because she has the ability to turn someone's great fear into a reality. Of course, that is not something I want for the rest of you." The Professor stated. "Envee, will you please escort Phoebe to her new room. She will be sharing with you."

"Yes, sir!" Envee exclaimed sarcastically, nodding toward Phoebe. "This way, watch your step, and follow me."

Phoebe nodded quickly and grabbed her suitcase, rushing after her mutant guide, who was already disappearing around the corner.

By the time Envee and Phoebe were making their way back down the foyer stairs, the final mutant was making his way inside. A young man took off his gray rain jacket, staring at the other X-men intently. He flashed a dazzling smile at the two girls coming down the steps.

Flirt, Envee thought, but she was more into Roberto than this guy.

"Everyone, this is Danny Tolusky, our final new student. Before any of you ask, his power is to create a black fire that feeds of fear and energy. No demonstrations though, please." The Professor introduced. Envee noted two scars under Danny's eyes, and the brilliant smile that he kept flashing.

"And just to let you all know, all the girls have got dibs on me, but uh guys, I'm not like that." Danny announced loudly.

What a first impression, Envee thought sarcastically. She noted a few of the guys glaring at Danny, but some of the girls were giggling.

"Bobby, why don't you show Mr. Tolusky to his room? He will be sharing with Jamie."

Bobby gave the Professor a look that said he'd rather punch the guy than be his guide. But he reluctantly sighed. Envee watched Bobby, one of the ones she'd eyed more than once before, start walking off up the stairs. Danny walked after him, smiling at Phoebe and Envee on his way up. Envee rolled her eyes and looked the other way, but she noticed Phoebe blushing. Once the other two mutants had rounded the corner, the Professor spoke.

"You are all dismissed, but there is a meeting I want all of you to come to tonight in the library. Since you will not have any danger room sessions tonight, I expect no one to be tardy. Be in the library by nine."

Then, everyone separated, eager to move on with what they had been doing before.

As the dark gray clouds had started to shed in the nighttime sky, Mr. Sinister made his way to his throne, sitting down comfortably. A silent and large figure made his way through the shadows, nodding toward Mr. Sinister.

"Sir, all of the captives have been restrained."

"Very good job, Sabertooth. I have found out that the X-men plan to formulate a plan later tonight. They are preparing to battle our weapon. How is she doing?"

"We're having more resistance form her sir, but that is not a problem. She even picked up three minions along the way coming back here. But sir, may I ask, how did you find out about the X-men's plan?"

"My spy, of course. They have told me everything. And they shall follow the X-men into battle. That's when they'll meet up with us again. I am surprised that no one has suspected them yet. I supposed the X- men have other concerns. My spy also informed me that the X-men have been recruiting. But no matter, as I have already made my share of recruiting."

Just as Mr. Sinister finished, someone stepped out of the shadows. A male around five foot six, with brown hair and green eyes made his way toward Mr. Sinister. The guy had a black T-shirt with gray sleeves and jeans. His tan and muscles were evident too, as his muscular pecks bulged against his T-shirt, and his sleeves stuck tightly to his muscular biceps. The guy dropped to one knee as he stared at Sinister.

"Where are your clones, Paul?"

"I prefer they are referred to as my brothers, sir."

"Fine them where are you brothers?"

"They are resting now, sir. But the Scorpion team will be ready soon."

"Very well, you are dismissed."

"Sir!" Paul nodded, and disappeared into the shadows. Just as he did, a female made her way toward Sinister's throne.

"Ah, Petra my dear, all goes well?" Sinister smiled at the redhead in front of him.

"Yes, I have been training." Petra answered.

"That's what I wanted to hear. You are dismissed."

Petra blended into the dark shadows as Sabertooth spoke.

"Sure will be interesting having a vampire on our team. I'm guessing that's what her powers make her?"

"You are correct. With the scorpions and a vampire, I feel we have a good enough defense. But our offense, that will be composed of Miss Grey herself. The Phoenix has risen, but she is under my control now!!"

=================================================================

A/N: So, just to clear something up, the spy, Mr. Sinister's, is with the X-men. I mean, with them, but against them. Anyways, if you want to figure out who it is, then think back to all of the missing X-men. Then, think of all the X-men present now. It's not a mistake. It will help if you focus on the beginning with Envee. That should kinda give it away. I don't know. But please review, and if you have any questions, send them in.
