Disclamer: I do not own X-man...it's not fair

This is my first public fanfiction so please be gentle on reviews...I'll try my best and see what I can do with my wonderful writing skills, lol. Enjoy!

Introduction

Don't ask me how I got here...or even how they caught me. I think they snuck up from behind and knocked me out. All the same I have a major headache. That must have been it. When I came to there where all these strange adults telling me they understood and I had nothing to worry about anymore. "It will all be okay..." All be okay? Thats what they said. I was to be taken to a school where others learned to control their gifts. Others just like me, where I would be considered normal. Or as normal as a seventeen year old punk with bone-claws coming out of their knuckles can be.
My name is Tiger. Or at least that's what I've been called the last few years I've been living on the streets. How'd I get there you wonder? True I use to be a normal girl. Hanging out with friends and making ends meet at a rich privet school with the help of my father, when he was around. He was always away at work. Keeping busy, or away from me. He always seemed to be watching me. As if he knew I was different. Then one night when I was fifteen I found out why. I was different. Since the day I was born. The doctors say I was born with bone like claws sticking out of my knuckle. Said my mom died of internal injuries from my birth. The moment I heard this I knew I was the reason for it. The reason I didn't have a mother, the reason dad always looked so sad and couldn't stand to be around me. I had ruined their perfect chance to be a happy family with a normal child. I was a freak.
So it was that night when dad was sound asleep I left without a trace. Into the streets, and became Tiger. I've lived on the streets ever sense. No one seemed to ask questions, no one seemed to care that the once normal teen all star, Shawn Phillese had disappeared. Though dad did look for me. He tracked down these people to find me...so he does care. Might as well give this place a chance before I bust out of here.
