Thing were going great for Kagome, she had lots of friends, they would come over and study with her. Her classes were easy and she was at the top of her class. For her Christmas break Tony and her flew to Japan to spend time with Nodoka and the others. At that time Tony finally got up enough courage to ask Nodoka out on a date, they had a lovely time.
There was only one thing wrong, every now and then she would get these terrible headaches that wouldn't go away. She'd have to meditate for hours for them to go away. She couldn't understand why she kept having these headaches. Kagome finally told Tony, Tony had Jarvis do a CT scan but it came out normal. Tony was very worried, but since nothing came up on the CT scan, Kagome chalked it up to stress.
It all came to head one February afternoon.
Kagome was in her English class when she heard someone talking she looked around but everyone had their heads down doing their work. She asked the boy next to her if he had heard someone talking.
"No, Kagome the whole class has been silent, are you okay?"
"Yeah I'm fine I thought I heard something that's all."
The boy nodded and went back to his work
Suddenly Kagome's nose started to bleed and she was bombarded by all these voices in her head, it was so loud she couldn't shut the noise out. She screamed and clutched her hands over her ears, trying to stop the voices. That's when the teacher noticed her her nose was bleeding. He grabbed some tissue to try to stop the blood flow but it wasn't slowing. Kagome continued to scream until finally she passed out. The teacher picked her up and took her to the nurse's office. By that time the bleeding had finally stopped, Kagome had blood all down the front of her blouse.
Kagome was twitching while she was unconscious, and they couldn't figure out why, it was only getting worse, so they called Tony. Pepper was the one who answered Tony's phone, the nurse informed her what had happened to Kagome. Tony was in the middle of a board meeting when Pepper went in and whispered in his ear what had happened to Kagome. His eyes widen, and he called the meeting to an end.
"We'll continue this meeting at a later date, if you all would please excuse me."
Tony ran out of the conference room straight for the elevator, punched the number to the basement impatiently until the doors closed, then he called Happy.
"Happy have the car ready we need to go pick up Kagome. Her school just called, she had some sort of episode."
By the time Tony got to the basement Happy was already waiting for him. Happy got out of the parking garage and sped off to Kagome's school, luckily they were not caught by any cops. When they got to the school, Tony jumped out and took off running into the building. He ran right passed the principal who was waiting for him and went straight into the nurse's office. Tony almost fainted when he saw all the blood on Kagome's blouse.
"What happened?!"
"We don't know, Mr. Stark, one minute she was doing her work in English class the next she was screaming bloody murder and her nose was bleeding and wouldn't stop." The nurse informed him.
"Alright I'm taking her home."
Tony bends down and easily picks up Kagome. He walks with her straight out of school and into the back of the car where Happy helps Tony get Kagome into the car.
"Take us home, Happy."
"Right away, Boss."
When they got home, Tony took Kagome straight to her room and put her to bed. At that point she woke up, her head begins to hurt again and the voices come back. Tears begin to well up in her eyes. She looks at Tony with pleading eyes.
"Daddy, make it stop." Kagome says as she starts crying.
"Make what stop, Honey?"
"The voices, make the voices stop."
"I will sweetheart, I'll do everything in my power to help you, now try to go back to sleep." Kagome closed her eyes and fell back to sleep.
Tony quietly leaves her room. He makes his way downstairs, "Did you get that JARVIS, she's hearing voices."
**Yes, sir, I got all of that**
"What can we do, could she have schizophrenia?"
**I don't believe so, sir. Miss Kagome would have been showing symptoms for months if that was the case**
"Then what the hell is it, what kind of doctor do I call?"
**If I may make a suggestion, sir, perhaps a doctor is not what Miss. Kagome needs, but a Professor.**
"A Professor, who?"
**Professor Charles Xavier at the the Xavier Institute for Higher Learning**
"Wait, isn't he a mutant?"
**Yes, sir, he is telepathic. I believe that, from what the teachers said and the comment that Miss Kagome just made, she is a mutant with the power of telepathy and has just come into her powers.**
"You really think so?"
**Yes, sir, that is the most likely scenario.**
"Alright, get this Xavier on the phone, we'll set up an appointment."
As it turns out Charles was already expecting Tony's phone call. Arrangements were made for them to head out to Westchester county, New York the following afternoon. When Tony went upstairs to tell Kagome he found her outside meditating in her garden.
Kagome was in the process of putting up a mental barrier so she could keep the voices out of her head. When she finished she turned around and looked at Tony.
"What's wrong with me, Dad?"
Nothing is wrong with you, Honey, Jarvis and I have come to the conclusion that you may or may not be a mutant and that you may have telepathic powers. That would explain all the voices you were hearing. Does the meditation help?"
"Yeah it helps, what if I am a mutant what are we going to do?"
"Well for now we're going to take a trip up to New York so you can meet Professor Charles Xavier, he's also telepathic. He'll determine for sure if you are a mutant or not, then we'll take it from there."
"Okay, I guess I better pack then."
Kagome went back into her room and pulled out her yellow backpack, she put in the usual things that she carried in it, the Hiraikotsu, the sutras, her demon slayer's outfit, her photo album, and of course she was taking her bow. Then she packed a regular suitcase.
The next day Kagome and Tony boarded Tony's private jet and took off to New York. While on the plane, Kagome had to meditate several time, as she could feel her mental barrier slipping. Once they got to New York there was a car already waiting for them. The driver drove them up to 1407 Graymalkin Lane, Salem Center. Once they got to the gate, the driver announced that the Starks were there to see Professor Xavier.
Once the gate swings open, the driver drove them to the front door. Tony told the driver to wait. Kagome and Tony got out of the car, Kagome was so nervous that she held onto Tony's hand. He gave her a little squeeze of encouragement.
Kagome rang the door bell and a teenage boy with blonde hair answered the door, when he saw Tony, his eyes widen.
"You're, You're Tony Stark!" Bobby Drake nearly yells.
"So I am, kid."
"You're Iron Man!"
"I know that, kid.
"Oh my god the others are going to freak out when they find out Iron Man is here."
"Hey well, before you put me on display, how about you tell us how to get to Professor Xavier's office?"
"O-Oh yeah of course, follow me." Bobby stuttered.
Kagome looked at her father, "Does that happen everywhere you go?"
"Pretty much, yeah."
They get to Xavier's office and the door swung open, "Thank you Mr. Drake that will be all."
"Sure thing, Professor." Bobby said then takes his leave.
"Please come in, Mr Stark and Miss Stark."
Tony struts into the office and Kagome follows at a more subdued pace.
"Please, have a seat. Now then you are here to determine if Miss Stark is in fact a mutant. From what I picked up from Cerebro, you are indeed a mutant Miss Stark. Through Cerebro, I was able to pick up the episode you had at school yesterday.
"So what are we going to do about it Prof?" Tony asked.
"With your permission, Miss Stark, I would like to probe your mind to see what other talents you may have. Sometimes mutants come with two or three gifts."
"O-Okay." Kagome said nervously.
"Alright, Miss. Stark, just try to relax, and drop any mental barriers you may have." Charles said in a soothing voice.
Kagome inhaled deeply and let it out slowly, she then dropped her mental barrier and was immediately assaulted by different voices. Kagome begins to panic until she hears Charles' voice.
*Can you hear me, Miss Stark?*
*Yes, I can hear you.* Kagome answered mentally.
*Good, I shall begin to probe your mind at the same time I will shield your mind from all of the extra voices.* Charles explains to her.
Charles searches through her mind and is surprised by what he finds there. Charles breaks the connection but still leaves up the barrier.
"My, my you have led an interesting life, Miss Stark." Charles tells her.
Tony looks at them confused, "What interesting life, what are you talking about?"
"It is not my place to say, but I think you and your daughter should have a long talk, then afterwards we'll discuss what I found. If you will excuse me, I shall give you all some privacy and I'll have someone bring up your yellow backpack, my dear."
Kagome reached out for Charles' hand as he's about to pass by. "Do I have to?"
"Yes, I think now would be the most opportune time." Charles said to her then wheels out.
Tony stares at Kagome, "Tell me what?"
Kagome takes a deep breath, "Tell you about my past and why Mom thought it would be better that I come live with you…"
So, Kagome began to tell Tony about her time traveling 500 years into the past when she was 15 years old. She told him how it all started with Mistress Centepede dragging her into the well,and that from there she met Inuyasha. She told him about the Shikon Jewel and about the fact that she shattered it. Kagome told him about meeting a little fox demon named Shippou, and a perverted monk named Miroku. Then how she met Sango, a demon slayer.
Kagome told him all about Naraku and the demons that she and her friends faced, about Lord Sesshomaru, and Kouga. She even told him about the final battle and how they were finally able to kill Naraku once and for all.
For his part, Tony just sat there and listened, never once interrupting or asking any questions. When she finished her story, Tony stared at her for a minute.
"So you expect me to believe that you time traveled 500 years into the past where there were demons and monsters of all sorts to gather up jewel shards in order to stop a maniac half demon named Naraku? Especially when time travel has been proven impossible."
"Yes, hold on just a minute." Kagome got up to go get her backpack but when she opened the door, it's sitting right outside the door.
"Maybe this will convince you."
Kagome took out her photo album from the Feudal Era. She opened the album and the first photo is of Inuyasha, then there was a picture of Shippou, Sango and Miroku. She also had pictures of Lord Sesshomaru, Kouga, Ginta and Hakkaku and even one of Naraku.
Tony flipped through the album amazed by all the pictures, he hands her back the album, "So this really happened?"
"Yes, Dad it really did."
"And your mother was okay with this?"
"Of course not, but she knew as the Miko that shattered the Shikon Jewel, it was my duty to make it whole again, and to defeat the evil that would have taken over the world."
"And what is a Miko?"
"A Miko is a shrine maiden who fight evil spirits, demons, and ghosts. I'm also known for being skilled in some variety of martial art or the use of a traditional Japanese weapon, such as yumi (longbow), tantō (knife), or any of the various Japanese swords: katana, wakizashi, etc. I can also purify Demons into ash and break barriers
"Oh, Okay."
Kagome had a concerned look on her face, "Are you okay, Dad?"
"Yeah, it's just a lot to take in all at once."
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah, I'll be okay."
"Good, now maybe we can talk to Professor Xavier about this new power I have."
"Okay," Tony said in sort of a daze.
At that, Charles comes back into his office, " Well, now that you have explained everything to your father we can talk about your mutant powers. As I was probing your mind I discovered that not only are you telepathic but you are also telekinetic, which isn't all that surprising, they normally go hand in hand."
"So what should we do about her powers, Tony asks finally coming out of his daze.
"I suggest that she stays here and learns how to control her powers, you can enroll in our classes so you can still graduate on time. And I have decided to be your mentor if your decide to stay."
Kagome looked at her father, "What do you think, Dad?"
"It's entirely up to you, Honey, whatever you decide I'll support you."
Kagome thought for a moment then decided, "Yes, I would like to learn more control over my powers and I would like to enroll in your school."
"Alright, I'll make the necessary arrangements and get your school records, looks like I'll be moving into Stark Tower sooner than I thought."
"You're moving to New York, Dad?"
"Of course I am, you didn't think I'd leave you alone, did you?"
"Alright then, I'll have Ororo show you to your new dorm room, and once we get your records we can put you in the appropriate classes."
There was a knock at the door and a beautiful African American woman with white hair was standing there, "You wanted to see me, Charles?"
"Yes, I want you to show Miss Stark to her dorm room, she is now our newest student.
"Oh that's wonderful, welcome to the school. I'm Ororo Munroe, but you can call me Storm, I'm one of the professors here.
"Nice to meet you Storm, you can call me Kagome, as a matter of fact, so can you Professor. This is my Dad Tony Stark.
Tony took her hand and kissed her knuckles, but he wasn't the least bit interested, his eyes were set on Kagome's mother.
Storm took Kagome and Tony to her new room. Kagome gawked at all of the students in the hallways how they were freely using their powers, and how some of them looked different. She briefly wondered if those that didn't look human had some Youkai blood in them.
Storm showed them her room, it was nothing spectacular, just a room with a queen size bed, a chest of drawers, a night stand and it's own bathroom.
After they checked out her room, they got a tour of the school, once that was done, Tony decided it was time to go. He had to go back to California to pack her stuff and change the headquarters of Stark Industries to the New York office.
"Okay, Kid, I have to go, but I'll be back by Monday with your stuff, you can tell me if you like here or not by then."
"Okay, Dad, I'll miss you." Kagome says as she hugs her father.
"I'll miss you too, Baby Girl, be good okay?"
"Yes, sir." Kagome said, giving Tony a salute.
With a laugh Tony turned, got in the car and drove away.
Kagome felt more relaxed now that her father knew everything, now she could get back to training. She wondered if there was anyone here she could spar with. Kagome decided to go ask the Professor.
She got to his office and knocked, "Come in, Kagome." The Professor said.
"What can I do for you?"
"Well, I was wondering if there was someone here that I can spar with, I haven't been working out as much as I used to and I'd like to get back into it."
The Professor thought for a moment, "I have the perfect sparing partner."
Just then the door open and in enters the Wolverine.
