Charles P.O.V.
I watched helplessly as my daughter was losing the fight to stay conscious. Hank has just woken up and was confused but I didn't take my eyes off Inara . As Erik lifted his hand things seemed to slow down. The next thing I knew Inara was next to Hank and all the students were untied and up in their feet. I looked to my right and saw Peter Maximoff. I smirked and said
"This is the one thing that you could never understand Erik. The bonds made between these children are unbreakable. You hurt one of us you have to deal with the rest of us. So if I were you Erik I would leave before one of these kids decides to use the powers" they began walking out but Jackson just stood there.
"What are you still doing here Mr Bowe. Get out of my house before I do something I'll regret". He then left with Eric and Mystique. I turned to Hank and said
"How is she" he just looked up at me and said
"Not good, she's gone into shock"
"Get her downstairs, Now!"
"Charles she needs serious help"
"And she'll get it, just get her downstairs and stable" I then picked up the phone in the hall and called and old friend.
"hello"
"it's Charles, I need your help"
"what's wrong"
"my daughter is injured badly. I need you to come and look at her"
"I'll be there as soon as possible"
"thank you Betty". I put the phone down and said to Peter
"thank you Peter"
"no problem, Inara saved me a while back do I owed her one" I then said to everyone
"everything will be fine. Please go back to your dorms and get some rest". I turned around in my chair and made my way towards the elevator. Before I reached it Scott asked
"What about Inara?"
"Inara is getting the best care. She'll be fine in time". I knew that over the past months both Inara and Scott have got close and have started feelings things for each other. Anyway I went downstairs and 10 minutes later my friend, Dr Betty Haydock, came and treated Inara . Inara had shattered her left collarbone and badly broken her right leg. Not to mention an extreme concussion that put her in a shock induced coma.
The weeks went on and on but Inara wouldn't wake up. The mood in the school has been very depressing but life goes on. Everyday without fail I go down and sit with Inara for minimum of an hour just reading to her. I read things like William Blake and other poems and books she loved growing up. Inara might not genetically be mine but she is still my little girl.
3 months later
Hanks P. O. V
I've been sat with the professor for most of the day and he's really not coping with Inara in a coma. When he's not down here in the medbay he's in class or his office. He only eats when I make him and he hardly sleeps. On a different note Scott, Jean and Peter have proven that they have what it takes to undergo the same training programme that Inara has, they aren't officially X-men but they are heading to that road. So they are allowed on the lower level and Scott and Peter occasionally drop by to see how Inara is doing.
It's currently 8pm and Charles has just fallen asleep in his chair next to Inara 's bed. I'm trying not to fall asleep but today has been really tough and tiring. I rested my head back and just looked at Inara . Her left shoulder and left side of her neck is completely purple and her arm is secured in a sling. She has a cast on her leg that stops mid thigh and she's hooked up to an IV bag, a heart monitor, a brain monitor and other fluid bags. She's so pale and has black bags under her eyes. To anyone who didn't know what was wrong with her would most likely think that she's dead. To be perfectly honest she looks dead but her heart is still beating and her brain is still functioning.
My eyelids are starting to get really heavy and when I was almost asleep I heard a really weak voice
"Hank". My eyes snapped open and I saw Inara had her eyes open but was still really weak.
"Hey, you're awake" I shook Charles and he woke up saying
"what is it Hank" Inara then said
"Dad" he did the same thing that I did and said
"oh thank God you're awake. We were getting really worried"
"what happened" Charles just held her hand and said
"Erik and Mystique attacked the school. You fought mystique but Jackson used his powers on you. Inara You've been in a coma for 3 months"
"Jackson betrayed us"
"yeah, I'm sorry Inara " she went to get up but instantly regretted it. I then said
"you've got a shattered collarbone, broken leg and concussion. So you won't be going anywhere for awhile"
"How is everyone else". She was exhausted and was drifting back to sleep. I put my hand in her hair and said
"Everyone's fine" Charles then said
"Rest, Inara. We'll talk more when you're feeling a bit better". She just closed her eyes and hummed agreeing with Charles. I covered her with her blanket before going upstairs with Charles.
