A/N This is my first X-Men fic so plz plz plz b e kind.
This is dedicated to Cyndy who I apparently pissed off in my last fic so here you go Cyndy.
Chapter 1
Dr. Hank McCoy (aka Beast) and Cindy Wilcox were riding in the subway.
"I am sorry we had to leave again but they were onto us." Hank said softly to the woman next to him. She smiled.
"I have always wanted to meet Charles Xavier. Ever since I found out how he helped you." Cindy replied. Cindy was also a mutant. She wasn't entirely sure what her mutation was called though. She was remarkably like a cat. When it was dark out her eyes turned yellow and had slits for pupils. Also, when she fought (which she had to do a lot) she had more of a cat stance, kept low to the ground and could do maneuvers like no one else. And you know the nine lives thing, Cindy was living proof. She had been thrown off a building and down an elevator shaft and was still alive.
"I think you'll like him. He's smart. Like you." He leaned over and kissed Cindy's cheek. Cindy smiled.
"And you."
XAVIER'S MANSION
A knock outside the door diverted Logan right as he was about to go upstairs. AS he opened the door, the sight momentarily stunned him. A man with brown hair and in a pair of jeans and a grey tee shirt was standing next to a woman slightly shorter then him wearing torn jeans and a Nirvana Tee shirt. He couldn't imagine what they would be doing here at 2:30 am.
"Can I help you?" Logan asked.
"Yes, I am here to see Professor Xavier. My Name is Dr. Hank McCoy and this is my assistant, Cindy Wilcox."
"Nice to meet you."
"Likewise." Cindy replied.
"Ok. Umm, come in." Logan said stepping aside. "I ill go get the Prof..."
"No need Logan, I am here." Xavier.
"Forgive our appearance. They found us and we had to leave by subway. We did not want to look out of place."
"Not at all. Ms. Wilcox, it is lovely to meet you."
Cindy raised her eyebrows. "How do you know my name?"
"He is a psychic." Hank answered. She looked at him.
"Oh no. Oh no no no no no no no no no." Cindy said. Her eyes went out of focus and back in as if memories came rushing back. Hank quickly positioned himself between them.
"No, Cindy, he's alright, he's alright. He isn't like the others."
Cindy looked around as if looking for an escape.
"It has been a long journey. Logan, why don't you find them a room."
Logan raised his eyebrow. Yes, one room. He heard in his mind. He just shrugged.
"Follow me."
IN THEIR ROOM
"Cindy, I know the memories are painful but he isn't like them."
"How do I know that? He is a psychic, he can make us believe anything he wants us to!"
Hank rubbed the bridge of his nose and sat down on the bed to take off his shoes.
"Look, I know him well. He helped me control my power so I didn't hurt anyone. He wouldn't be here if he didn't want to help these kids. Look, you dont have to trust him right away, just get to know him. See for yourself."
Cindy sighed and sat on the bed.
"Ok. For you." She leaned over and kissed him. "Now, I am tired, lets go to bed."
MORNING
Cindy and Hank woke to a sound of a stampede outside their door.
"Is it time to go see Xavier?" Cindy mumbled Into Hank's chest. He hugged her closer to him.
"No, we have time. He teaches. We can go eat now."
Cindy made some noncommittal noise and rolled out of bed. She pulled on a pair of black pants and a white shirt with a black star on it and a jean jacket. Hank put on jeans and a different T shirt. Newer looking then the one he wore last night.
At breakfast, not many things were said. A woman came into the kitchen as they were finishing.
"Hello. I'm Storm. I am here to take you to the professor." She said smiling.
Hank stuck out his hand. "Hank McCoy. This is Cindy Wilcox."
Storm shook his hand and nodded to Cindy. "It is nice to meet you. If you will come with me..." She said as she left the room. Cindy and Hank followed.
XAVIER'S OFFICE
"Well, Dr. McCoy, I cant say I am not happy you visited but I cant help but wonder why." Xavier said.
"It's because of Magneto. And all the people he has kidnapped. I know what his next target is."
