2: Wallflower

Blood headed to the courtyard were lunch was held. He spotted several teenagers all eating, grouped up at tables. His eyes met a cute, petite blonde with a shy face. She was eating alone. He then noticed a boy with golden skin peer up from a table and giver her a dirty look.

Blood Wolf decided to stick with what he knew. He was an outcast in society; this girl was also an outcast. He began to walk to the table; Orion had gone to explore the grounds. Blood moved closer to the table, and no one had noticed him yet.

He stopped near the table and sniffed the air He could smell a strong scent of fear surrounding the girl, but ignored it and lipped into a chair across from her. He pulled out the lunch Xavier had given him and began to eat.

The girl ignored him for a long moment, but looked up at him again.

"How did you get past my barrier?" She asked, a bit startled.

"What barrier?" Blood studied the girl's face. She had large, shy blue eyes, a straight nose, and round lips.

"My fear barrier." She said in a matter of fact tone. She wasn't going to warm up to him this soon.

"So that's what that smell was." Blood sniffed the air again. Part of his mutation gave him some wolf like senses. He could sense pheromones and feelings in the air, and could stifle his own.

"I guess I'm immune. Why have you put up a barrier in the first place?" Blood leaned forward a bit because the gold boy was staring at him.

"Because I don't want anyone sitting next to me." She sighed and Blood got the sense of depression in the air.

"If you want me to leave…" Blood started

"No, don't. You can stay. It's just, I'm not very popular around here." She sighed again and took a large bite out of her chicken sandwich.

"Why is that?" Blood Looked behind him. Several people were watching them now.

"Something I did." Blood could tell he shouldn't push any further. He just finished his lunch.

Hey Blood. Orion ran towards Blood from a nearby field. Many of the students got up form their seats to look at Orion. A few went to the edge of the courtyard, as if to defend their fellow students from the wolf. Blood barely got out of the way as a large teen, whose body was composed of gray rock, charged past him.

Orion jumped over the blockade of students and landed next to Blood.

"He's with me." Blood shouted to the crowd. Stepping in front of Orion, Stop growling at them he sent to Orion.

Orion stopped his growling, but did keep the fierce look in his eyes. Blood looked at the students. Some of them had sat back down, a few, mainly a tall, good looking black haired boy and the Rockman, continued to stand. Blood sat back down after receiving a few angry looks from the table of the Rockman. He returned to the girl.

"So… Umm… I'm Blood, Blood Wolf." Blood held his hand out across the table. The girl took it and shook it softly.

"I'm Laurie Collins. You can call me Wallflower if you want," wallflower paused for a second and then asked, "Is Blood Wolf your real name?"

"Yeah, it is now at least. My family disowned me as a young boy, and I disowned them. They were mutant haters." Blood let a small piece of his past go out to Wallflower.

"My father was a mutant, he had the same power as mine, and he seduced my mother into loving him…" Wallflower informed Blood. Blood gave her a sympathetic smile.

"So, who's going to be your Advisor?" Wallflower asked, as if this was an everyday question.

"Huh? What's an advisor?" Blood asked

"An advisor is the X-man who trains with you in the danger room. Helps you through PE. A bit like a parent, or a big brother." Wallflower said, "Mines Sage. One X-man has several students under them."

"Ah, I don't know yet. I just got here, not an hour ago."

"Really! Well, I'm sure you will choose later today." Wallflower was being a bit cheerful now. A completely different person from before.
