I generally tend not to like original characters because everyone always makes them way to powerful or a rebel without a clue etc but I decided I'd give a story consisting mainly of new characters who aren't all powerful some aren't even powerful so I would appreciate everyone's feed back. Thanks

First Day

Hank yawned and stretched as he woke up, he went into the bathroom to get cleaned up before he slowly made his way down stairs. As he walked down the corridor where the students stayed he cast glances into the rooms and sighed. 'They're gone get used to it even Jamie grew up and flew the nest' thought Hank with a smile as he continued to walk, his knuckles and feet made little noise as he walked down the stairs into the kitchen where Storm, Logan and Xavier sat. Beast yawned which sounded like a quite roar before he climbed up onto his chair and poured some coffee.

'Morning Charles…Logan…Ororo' said Beast as he reached for his Wall street Journal.

'Morning Hank…you seem a little lethargic today if you don't mind me saying' said Charles with a concerned tone in his voice.

'I'm sorry Charles I'm just missing the children a little' sighed Beast 'quite strange really considering that this is what we always expected, I just woke up this morning and missed them.'

'I know how you feel Hank' sighed Storm as she took a seat next to him 'I keep expecting Bobby to come sliding through the door and run into Scott when he's carrying a cup of coffee or Kurt telling bad jokes or Kitty serving bad food' laughed Storm.

'I have been meaning to talk to you all about this please…enter my study' said Xavier as the four soon found themselves in a psychically projected room, Charles rose from his seat and walked to his desk before reaching into the top draw and pulling out a large stack of letters.

'My professor this certainly is an impressive room' said Hank as he looked at one of the pictures on the wall which was actually moving.

'Yeah Chuck but I'm not sure I'm comfortable with you just reaching into my mind like this and putting another false room in there don't you think my minds already screwed up enough' said Logan half joking and half growling.

'Sorry Logan but I do love to stretch my legs' joked Xavier as he walked around Logan in circles 'mentally of course.'

'Why did you bring us here?' asked Hank as he raised his hand as if to get permission.

'These are letters from over two hundred teenagers or their parents asking about how you would apply to the school. All mutants all wanting to study and learn to use their powers. I say we give them a chance.' Said Charles as he handed the letters to Hank who handed a handful to the other two.

'Chuck there is no way that we could open the school to this many kids we don't have the facilities let alone the staff' said Wolverine for once being the logical one.

'Are those are the only two problems? Scott, Jean, Pitor, Jamie, Bobby, Sam and Wanda all arrive tomorrow to start their classes as do the construction workers to begin getting this place ready, other ex-students have promised to help out when they can when their busy schedules allow it' smiled Xavier.

'Well isn't it a coincidence that I got that empty feeling just the day before they all arrived isn't it' said Beast with a suspicious smile. 'You wouldn't have put the idea in my mind now would you?'

'No no of course not my friend, I just gave it a little push' smirked Xavier 'Is there any other reason you think that this is not a good idea?' asked Xavier.

The three mutants looked at each other and shrugged before turning to Xavier and smiling. 'Very well' began Xavier as he smiled 'let a new era at Xavier's institute begin.'

'What's up Wanda?' asked Sam Guthrie as he sat down next to the woman, his hair was much shorted and he wasn't as scrawny any more but he still looked like a local farm boy even down to his checkered shirt, they had been here for about seven months and the school was almost complete, the acceptance letters would be sent out and the students would arrive in a month.

'I'm not sure I know what I'm doing here' confessed Wanda 'I was never a X-man so I never learned any of this kind of stuff were meant to be teaching and I'm not a qualified teacher'.

'Well I aint that sure either but we all got things that we can teach to the next generation, you can teach them about how to walk the right path…I mean considering you had walked the wrong one and then worked for S.H.I.E.L.D. I'm still not sure what I can teach them' said Sam for which she got a smile from the woman who still dressed in red if now a little more casually, her hair had grown but still it had the red highlights at the back of it.

'Pity there isn't a wisdom class, you would excel at it' she said as she kissed him gently on the cheek, Sam blushed and smiled as Wanda got up and went to have er meeting with the professor.

'Before I end are there any questions?' asked Xavier as he smiled at the crowd. 'Yes you' said Charles as he pointed at one girl who had pink skin, pointy ears and a tail.

'I didn't raise my hand' said the girl not wanting to speak up in front of the group of students.

'I just think the question you were thinking of deserves answering it is the same as many others in the crowd' smiled Xavier before he gave her a little telepathic push telling her it was okay and not to be shy.

'When do we become X-men?' she asked in a shaky voice before sitting quickly back down and going bright red.

'You are here to learn how to control your powers be under no illusions that you are X-men, we are not training the next wave of superheroes were training you to function in society normally and to use your gifts to benefit others' said Xavier with a smile.

'Well that seemed to be the only truly outstanding question but just to answer the questions others are thinking, yes there is a curfew, yes you still have to do normal school work, there is a male and a female dorm both sexes will be expected to be back in their own dorms after ten and no the boy in the third row isn't Michael Jackson he just looks like him' all the kids laugh including Trevor who is the Michael Jackson look alike.

'Watch where you're going jerk' said Simon as another boy bumped into him, he wouldn't usually snap like that but this kid just bumped into him, sneered and then kept walking he didn't even stop to say sorry.

'Who are you calling a jerk Blondie' sneered the boy, his hair was gelled back with a distinct purple tint.

'Don't worry about him' said a brunette girl as she stuck her tongue out at the purple haired kid before grabbing hold of Simon's arm 'That's Quentin Quire he went to my old high school he is a real jerk, anyway I'm Marie who are you' asked the girl.

'I'm Simon, sorry hope you don't mind me saying you're a little fast aren't you' said Simon as he pulled the girls vice like grip from his arm.

'Yeah how did you know, oh I'm sorry about the arm grabbing thing I have three brothers and I know what boys can be like most of the time it is just easier to pull them away and I figured since we had the same mentor it would make sense if I introduced myself' said Maria as she spoke really fast without taking a breath which left Simon trying to figure out exactly where one sentence finished and another started.

'Ok, how do you know we have the same mentor?' asked Simon as he brushed some of his blonde hair from his eyes.

'Oh I quickly ran past the lists in the teachers lounge and I mean quickly that's my power I'm really fast and I can use it to fly, what's your power? It was quite strange because there were only three signed up for Miss Maximoff's students' said Maria really quickly again.

'That is weird' said Simon as he wondered why out of 210 students why would there be only three students assigned to her.

'So?' asked Maria impatiently.

'So what?' asked Simon quizzically still a little unsettled about this speedy girl who couldn't control her speech speed.

'What are your powers? It was a simple enough question, my grandmother always told me it was rude not to answer questions' said Maria at her break neck speed.

'Oh I can transform into the different elements' said Simon as he smiled trying not to show his nervousness at this girl.

'Could you turn to gold? Oh I love gold it's my favorite colour and…' began Maria before she was cut off by Simon.

'Not that sort of element the old ones like fire, water, earth and air' said Simon as his body burst into flame and rose into the air as a demonstration.

'Wow that is so cool…sorry about that I needed a drink' said Maria as she and Simon entered the room that they were to go to so they could meet their teacher.

'Sorry about what?' asked Simon confused by Maria's last comment.

'Oh you must have been blinking, I popped to the cafeteria for a drink sorry I took so long there was a queue I had to weave through so I could get a drink' said Maria with a smile not realizing that Simon didn't even know she was gone.

The two sat chatting as they waited patiently for their third member and their teacher, from what Simon could tell Maria had three brothers and a sister, she was from Seattle and could move fast.

A figure dressed all in black with a big hood over his head which cast his face in shadow so that the other two couldn't see him. 'Hi I'm Maria' said Maria as she quickly darted to the chair next to him 'this is Simon, I'm really fast and he is fire and water and stuff you generally get the picture anyway what's your name and powers' said Maria once again missing out the punctuation in her sentence which left the hooded boy a little spooked.

'I'm Adam' said the boy as he reached out a gloved hand to shake Maria's 'I don't really have any powers I'm just a mutant.'

'What's that supposed to mean?' asked Maria who was finally taking everyone's confused looks as a hint she talked to fast as she tried to slow down her speech.

Adam pulled back his hood to reveal his face or what you could call a face he had no skin or flesh he was simply made of muscle with bones showing in parts. 'I came to this school for safety but don't feel safe enough yet to take off my hood in front of the whole school' confessed the disfigured boy. Simon and Maria were a little lost for words when Wanda Maximoff entered the room.

'Hello I'm Miss Maximoff but you can just call me Wanda' said Wanda trying not to sound terrified by the students 'Well just wait for the others they're probably lost what with it being a big school and all' smiled Wanda.

Maria's hand shot up 'Excuse me but this is it we were the only students who were signed up for your group I checked the list' said Maria again rapidly, the nerves had got the better of her and she had forgotten to slow down her speech.

'I take it you're a speedster, my brother is like you so why don't you try what he does, count to ten as fast as you can between words that way it makes it much easier for everyone to understand you' informed Wanda with a smile before she opened up her class register for the first time, she looked at the three names on the list before standing up from the desk she had been sitting on, 'Excuse me I'll be right back'.

'Professor Xavier what is going on here?' asked Wanda as she burst into his class which had around fifteen kids in it including Trevor.

'So thank you everyone for coming, I'll just leave you all to settle in but first can I introduce you to Wanda Maximoff who is one of the staff here' said Xavier as he motioned at Wanda who gave a shy wave as the students left. 'How can I help you?' asked Xavier.

'Why are there only three kids in my class? don't you think I can handle more then that? Why do the others have so many? For god sake Jamie has thirty four students' cried Wanda as she flew off the handle.

'Wanda firstly Jamie has so many students because they are all younger students and well he is a one man faculty. The others have so many because it was just luck of the draw the same goes for you Cerebro completed a random assigning of students for the first semester it just turned out by a freak chance you ended up with three students. This will all be handled next semester when the students get reassigned to match powers and personalities much like their room assignments were' said Xavier explaining all of Wanda's questions.

'Well what am I supposed to do till then just handle the three of them and have our lessons end within three minutes?' asked Wanda.

'I'm sure they'll be more then enough. Simon Depp Omega class mutant, which basically means he has a very strong mutation. Maria Smith possibly the fastest mutant in this school, your experience with Pietro should help you greatly and finally Adam Lockhart his powers haven't fully emerged yet but cerebro's scans indicate he will be able to create force fields also he has invisibility powers hence his lack of skin, it's there but invisible' said Xavier explaining a little more about their powers.

'Still I would like more responsibility' said Wanda as she smiled, she wanted to become involved with the school mostly because she felt like her passed sins hadn't been fully redeemed and because she believed in the Xavier dream.

'Well I was going to ask Storm but I guess you could do it' said Xavier as he handed Wanda a sheet of paper with four names on it 'these are the names of mutant teenagers who Cerebro has detected are willing to join the institute whomever you recruit you can have join your team' smiled Xavier.

'It's a deal' said Wanda as she kissed Xavier on his cheek 'thank you for trusting me'.
