A/N: Hope you like Chapter one, this is chapter Two intitled Goodbyes and Hellos


A month after Theressa and Warren got back from their honeymoon, Theressa, Xavier and Scott decided that the school should be reopened and Theressa was deemed Head Mistress of the school. The incoming students would have to pay tuition in order to keep the school running because everyone knew that they couldn't live off of Warren's money forever. The only people who would not have to pay would be Chelsea, Theressa girls and Nethogent seeing as either they had lived at the school all their lives or had nowhere else to go. Stephanie had told her parents about the new fee and they had agreed to it. Andi and Mian had left three ago with Storm, Beast, Nethogent and Xavier, who had a device, Beast built, that enabled him to go where ever he wanted to go. Andi had tried to sneak out of the mansion before saying goodbye to her mom but Theressa had stopped her.

FLASH BACK

"Don't you even think about leaving before you say goodbye to me, young lady."

"Sorry mom. We're just trying to get out of here before dark. You know beat the traffic." Andi said as she opened the door and was about to reach for her suit case when Warren grabbed it and carried it out to the H2 that Theressa had given to Andi a while back.

"Well tell, Hank that if he waits until night fall then he can use the rocket thrusters and fly all the way there. No traffic or anything."

"Beast isn't coming." Storm said coming back into the mansion to get Andi for Nethogent and Mian were all ready in the car.

"He's not why?" Theressa asked. When she had asked Beast to go to Texas, he couldn't wait.

"He's going to stick around and make sure everything's in order in the med-lab before he takes off." Storm said and then turned around and headed to the H2. Theressa and Andi followed and once at the H2, Mian got out of the car and hugged her mom as well as Warren and Andi said her goodbyes as well and then got into the H2 next to her sister.

"You be careful and as soon as you get there, call me." Theressa told her daughters.

"Okay, mom we will. Love you." Andi said.

"Love you too." Theressa said as she and Warren watched the H2 drive away into the sunset.

END FLASH BACK

That had been three days ago and now Scott and Theressa were on their way, via motorcycle, to talk with another family about their child being a mutant and that the Xavier Institute was a place where they could not only get a high school degree but it was a place of refuge for mutants who didn't know how to control their powers and Michelle Feathery fit into that category.

Theressa and Scott had first met Michelle when they were going shopping for food and other necessary items. Jean and Warren were on a mission with Wolverine and Mian other wise Jean would have been with Scott but today it was Theressa. Scott pushed the cart as Theressa walked behind him looking around. She had put up a telepathic mask that hid not only her scar but Scott's glasses as well because it was getting dark.

"You know Theressa; I don't think anyone will attack us in here. You can put your guard down for a little while can't you?" Scott asked picking up some apples and putting them in a plastic bag and moving on.

"Scott you should know me well enough by now that I hardly ever put my guard down." Theressa replied glancing at a young couple holding hands as they passed by her and Scott.

"You don't trust them do you?" Scott asked turning around and looking at Theressa once he had everything they needed. Theressa sighed as they walked to the check out counter and when Scott started to put things on the counter, Theressa telekinetically lifted the items up so Scott wouldn't have to bend down so low and pick them up.

"No I don't trust them. I mean they hate us with everything that they are. Why should I trust them?" Theressa asked admitting to herself and Scott for the first time that she didn't trust anyone but the mutants that she lived with and their parents, of course.

"What if one of your children was normal, would you still love them?"

What kind of question is that? Theressa thought. Chris had been normal up until a reconfigured optic blast had hit him and caused his powers to come out.

Scott should have known that Theressa would love her children with or with out powers, good or evil as it was. Before Theressa could answer she saw a crowd of people come running into the store as if they had just seen a monster or something. Scott paid the casher and turned to Theressa who asked, "What's with those people over there?"

"Them? Their probably just trying to win the lottery or something. Nothing to worry about."

"No these people are terrified. Scott there's something outside that's scaring them." Theressa said dropping her telepathic mask and flying outside the store with Scott in tow.

Once outside they saw three pick up trucks on fire and two convertibles in the air, one of which was Scott's.

"What the hell is going on here?" Scott asked making sure people stayed back and away from the fire. Before Theressa could answer she heard a young girl say, "Look its Black Fox and Cyclops! They can help!"

Theressa smiled at the girls words. It wasn't every day that the x-men met people who actually liked them. Maybe Theresa had judged too soon. Maybe she should be more like this little girl.Suddenly Scott's red convertible came flying towards them and Theressa snapped out of her day dreaming just in time to telekinetically catch the car and set it on the ground.

"Scott, you get these people inside and out of danger. I'll go find the source of this madness." Theressa flew off and searched from the air am moment later she found a young girl no more that 13 hiding behind a dumpster, holding her had and screaming, "Voices. So many voices. Please make them stop! Make them stop!"

"Okay, just relax all right. I'm hear to help you. My name is Theressa and I want you to close your eyes and relax." The girl did just that and Theressa put her to sleep telepathically, picked the girl up and headed back to Scott on the ground. Once she got to Scott, the cars had stopped burning and had retuned to the ground.

"Let's go." Theressa said, telekinetically getting the items they came for out of the store, placing them in the car along with the girl. She then jumped into the passenger seat as Scott got behind the wheel and they drove off.


That was a month before Theressa and Warren were married and now Scott and Theressa were at Michelle's house about to talk to her folks. Scott rang the door bell and a moment later a dark headed, tall man wearing a mussel shirt and blue jeans answered the door.

"Can I help you?" He asked leaning on the door frame sizing Theressa and Scott down. "I'm Theressa Worthington and this is Scott Summers. We're here to talk with you and your wife about Michelle. I believe I spoke with your wife earlier on the phone."

"Yes, come in please." The man said as he moved out of the door way and allowed Theressa and Scott into his home. Scott went in first and Theressa went in after him. In the hallway there were tones of pictures of Michelle with her parents and elementary school photos. They walked into the living room which you could see from the hallway, and sat down on the couch across from Michelle's mother as her husband took his seat in a chair next to her.

"Mr. and Mrs. Feathery," Theressa began, "Your daughter has some very special gifts."

"Yes we know." Mrs. Feathery said as she picked up a cup of tea and sipped from it and then continued, "Her father has one of them as well."

"Really, you a mutant?" Scott asked, "I was under the impression that Michelle was the only once with the mutant gene."

"No, he's telepathic, Scott."

"You read my mind Mrs. Theressa?" Mr. Feathery asked smiling he knew she hadn't but it was just a question.

"No sir." Theressa said with respect to Michelle's father.

"Then how'd you know?" Scott asked curiously.

"At the door when I was talking I saw his eyes look us down and felt someone trying to read my mind. There are things only telepaths can pick up or at least strong telepaths."

"Yes well I may be a telepath but I'm no Xavier." Mr. Feathery said, "I don't know how to help Michelle with her other powers such as her ice fire balls and her telekinetic powers. For that she needs someone who is familiar in all aspects of her powers and can train her to control her powers."

"Yes, we will….." Theressa said but was interrupted by her cell phone ringing. Theressa pulled it out of her pocket, looked at the caller id and saw that it was Logan calling. "I have to take this, excuse me."

Theressa walked out side and onto the patio as she said, "Hey Logan. What's up? How'd the mission in California go?"

"Not good. We've got a problem."
"Like what sort of problem? Is it the girls? What about Michael and Warren?"

"The girls are fine, they called and said good night, just like they did last night. Michael's fine as well but Angel ain't. We need you back at the Mansion fast."

"On My way." Theresa ran back into the house and said, "Scott we've got to go."

"Why, what's wrong?"

"I don't know but we've got to go now!" Theressa said flying out of the house and waiting for Scott to get on the motorcycle as she flew ahead of him and opened a link with him. .

I don't know what is wrong Scott. All Logan told me was that it had something to do with Warren needing me. God I pray he's all right
