The students awoke in a fright as the ground shuddered beneath their beds, Scott sighed since he had just gotten into bed and went to check and calm the students. Earthquakes weren't as average occurrence around this time of year and something was funny about this one. Piotr immediately awoke and checked the hall, the tremors had just begun and no one had begun to file into the hallways and under such things as door frames and other solid structures.
Something in the air smelt metallic to Logan's sensitive sense of smell as he also made his was into the hall. Piotr found Brooke in her bed still tossing and turning to an obvious nightmare, the ground shook harder as he went over to wake her up. He found his body getting heavier and heavier as he made his way to her, it felt as though a strong force was holding him back and away. He shook it off and shook Brookes shoulder to wake her up and as he did her body shot up from her bed as she was released from her sleeping nightmare state. With a huge crash Piotr was thrown by an invisible force as she awoke, his figure crashed through the hall and into the hall where students where still standing under rigid structures.
"Shit where the hell did you come from?" Scott asked as he helped Piotr up.
The only answer he got was Piotr glancing through the hole into Brooke's room where she sat looking back with a horrified expression on her face. The silence continued until Logan had arrived and seen the hole.
"What's that from?" He asked glancing over at Piotr.
No one had an answer for him since no one knew what had happened, not even Brooke herself. The nightmare had vanished from her mind as she was now faced with a bigger problem ahead of her. She calmed her breathing before slowly getting out of bed and walking over to the hole where she half hid from the stares in the hall. She peeked around it to Piotrs astonished face with her own solemn expression. He could see the fear in her eyes from what had just happened and immediately softened his own expression and took her in his arms to protect her from everyone else's looks. Finally the Professor and Jean appeared from the corner and took immediate control making sure everyone was okay, after that was done they looked at the trembling girl in Piotrs arms, whose appearance hid her true power. No one thought that scared shaking girl could ever have caused so much chaos in the middle of the night.
"Brooke, are you alright girl? Now please follow Jean and me to my office so we can sit and calmly discuss current matters. Piotr you come as well." The Professor smartly added the last comment as he turned himself around and expected them to follow.
They did as what was expected and followed him to his office, noticing Piotrs hole was the most damage in the whole mansion as far as they could tell. His office wasn't a very far walk and soon they were there with Brooke hiding under Piotrs arm as the Professor turned to talk to her.
"It's alright Brooke no one is angry at you here. All we want to do is help you figure everything out, I understand you're scared but please sit and we'll discuss what needs to be done." He paused as she looked up from the ground at him; her eyes were still big with fright still. "We need to figure out the extent of your powers right away. The scan didn't work earlier now I was wondering if you would allow me to psychically do my own scan. I promise it won't hurt you and it'll give us a great deal of information into what happened to you. Is that alright?"
The calm tone he used convinced her and she nodded slightly. She took a deep breath and sat where the professor motioned for her to sit. With a final glance to Piotr and one more reminder to stay relaxed and calm. Her eyes closed as she felt another force take ahead of her mind, it felt impersonal as though she had a burglar in her room. Memories flashed in her mind of her life before the lab, at that house with her brother and adopted parents. Her old school when she was five and than a scene of her with her real family, her real parents. It was only a glimpse though but there was a familiar face in the scene. Finally her thoughts turned to the lab and everything that was said and done there, she didn't know what it was he was looking for but he finally released his hold on her memories and she was back in his office.
