Chapter One
Somewhere in the city,
Dark shadows filled up an abandoned building. Sharp intakes of breath could be heard when you opened the door. A dark figure lay on a table in the middle of the room, gasping in pain and the stinging sensation coming from a gaping wound in its belly.
The figure was a female with blood trickling out of her open mouth. Battle scars, inflicted not long before, adorned her pale white skin. She had long brown hair, that reached her shoulderblades, and bloodshot, fluorescent green eyes.
She wore a torn light blue tee and off white cargo pants, both of which were stained with fresh crimson blood.
"God, why is this happening?" The girl choked out, coughing up blood.
At Professor Xavier's Institute,
Professor Xavier sat at Cerebro, contemplating what he had just figured out. A new mutant was discovered, but he didn't know the mutant's powers. Besides that, the mutant was in a very bad state of health, but that was all he picked up.
"Something wrong, Charles?" Asked a voice behind him and he turned his chair to see Ororo standing behind him.
"Yes, I've discovered a new mutant but, I don't know what powers she possesses. She could be dangerous if we don't try to find her, but I don't want to send any of the team into a dangerous situation." Professor X explained and Ororo nodded, slightly.
"I will assemble the team." Ororo said and she left the room, going off to do as she promised.
'I hope this new mutant is not met by Magneto before hand, though.' Professor X thought as he left Cerebro.
Once he arrived at the living room, all the X-Men were gathered there, watching him expectantly.
"I have you assembled here because Cerebro has detected a new mutant. The problem is that we can't figure out her powers. All I could really figure out was that she is in a very poor state of health, so be gentle with this one." He stated, looking sideways at Logan, A.K.A Wolverine, before continuing. "Her name is Jade Rollins. From what I could figure out, she has no family and has been on the streets for a year and a half now. I want you to treat her with care, for she is still developing her powers and could possibly see you as a threat and attack."
"Where is she, Porfessor?" Jean Grey asked, making the Porfessor turn his gaze to her thoughtfully.
"She is in this very city, in an abandoned building on 23rd." He stated and Jean nodded.
Back at the abandoned building,
Jade had curled up on her side, trying to find a way to get rid of the headache she had acquired. It was pounding all throughout her small body, making her hurt worse than ever.
The girl head a 'whooshing' sound and jumped, slightly, making the pain worse as she surveyed her surroundings.
"Hello, Jade, are you in here?" She heard a female voice say and Jade gasped, her face contorted in pain.
The person seemed to her the small sound, because she started to head that way, but more footsteps followed her.
Jade sat up and spat out a mouthful of blood, looking around frantically. She didn't know who it was and her sense of security had been shattered because of that.
Jade stood painfully and limped into the shadows, a fine blood trail following her. She groaned when she reached her spot, pulling down her sleeve a bit to see a big hole in her shoulder.
"Please, Jade, we want to talk to you." Said a different female voice.
"Yes, we want to help you, as well." Said a male voice with an accent.
"Just get out! You'll hurt me like the others did!" Jade cried out, tears rolling down her cheeks.
"What others?" The first woman asked.
"My so-called family and friends! Mutant haters! All of them!" Jade cried and she collapsed to her knees, burying her face in her blood-stained hands.
"We want to help you. We are mutants. If we can accept ourselves, we can accept you, too." Said someone else, making her cry harder.
Jade nearly jumped out of her skin when she felt arms evelope her in a tight embrace. She tried to pull away but felt a wave of pain come over her and she collasped into the person's embrace, groaning.
"Stay still, please, Jade. This will hurt a little bit." Said a calming female voice and Jade tensed up when someone else touched her right arm.
Jade tried to pull away, but the one holding her tightened their grip a bit. She felt a needle pierce the skin of her arm and she growled, surprising herslef as she jerked her arm a bit.
"Please, Jade, this is to help you get some sleep. It will ease your pain." Said a female voice and Jade started to feel a bit drowsy and her head dropped onto her captors shoulder.
What felt like a tail to her, wrapped around her slender waist, the tip stroking her side, and she moved her head a bit,
causing her captor to look at her face. She looked up at the person's face to see two yellow eyes gazing back at her in concern.
After that, her vision turned dark and she blacked out from whatever was injected into her and from tremendous pain.
