The girl looked around as she dropped her bag on the floor, she'd just gotten home from school and by the smell of things her dad was home too A/N: He's a drunk. Her name was Raven Ebony Destiny Charna Sullivan. Raven frowned as she heard her dad lumber in drunk (as usual).
"Raven, you bitch! Quiet down" Her dad yelled.
"F- You, Dad!" she yelled back. The instant her dad heard this he raised his hand and slapped her, as he removed his hand from her face his clothes caught on fire and things started whipping around. Raven screamed and passed out from shock.
When she woke up she was laying in a hospital bed, a bald man in wheelchair asking her something.
"Are you alright?" he asked.
"I think so…" she answered.
"We are going to keep her here for a day or two and then she can move in with Rogue, now that Kitty has a different room mate" said furry blue man as he checked her vital signs.
"Thank you, Hank" said the bald man.
A few days later Raven headed up to room 666, which was apparently her new room.
'Please don't put me with a prep, please don't put me with a prep…' she thought as she opened the door. She sighed in relief as she looked around the black room with its gothic furniture. On one of the beds sat a slender girl, she had chin length auburn hair with white bangs, celery green eyes and very fair skin. She also wore a green tank top with mesh sleeves and black jeans.
"Ah'm Rogue" she said.
"Raven Ebony Destiny Charna Sullivan" she responded.
"What are yah' powahs?" asked Rogue.
"Pyrokineisis and I can move things with my mind."
" Ah'm lahke a vampire but with touch rather than blood" Rogue responded.
Raven looked at her reflection: Straight glossy raven black locks that tumbled down her back like a waterfall of rich black silk and her chestnut-brown eyes were cold as the shone a cat-like amber in the light. They had a ring of black around the iris and were almost feline in shape. She had always known she was pretty and with her gothic pale skin many said she was beautiful.
Rogue looked at her, "Do yah want to go shopping?"
"Hells Yeah!" said Raven.
"'Kay, Ah'll just call Wanda and we can go." Wanda was Wanda Maximoff, a tall, pale Goth with jet black hair in a pixie cut streaked with red and black eyes. Wanda wore a red tank top and black jeans as well.
When they got to the mall, they immediately hit Hot Topic and a variety of other gothic stores.
That night, dressed in a pair of black silk boxers and a black lace tank top, she lay down in the bed and thought about the Insitute, she hadn't really met any of the other mutants but from the way Rogue had ignored them she had a feeling they were all preps.
