Chapter 10

The ride to the school was an uncomfortable one at that. Logan was still mad about earlier, and I couldn't help but smile at the thought.

While I was watching outside of the window, I noticed the trees become more taken care of, and that they formed a slight pathway. I looked up ahead to find a gate. 'This must be it.' I thought to myself.

We drove up the driveway where a big, beautiful mansion towered overhead. It was absolutely breathtaking. I had always had a fascination with houses such as these.

We pulled up outside and Logan turned the truck off. He got out and I followed suit. He grabbed our bags and walked up the door. He walked inside and as I followed, I saw the beauty that was this school. The inside was unbelievable. It was so gorgeous I couldn't move. I was so entranced by the beauty of this place, I didn't notice Logan call my name.

"Hey, pix, come on." he said.

I snapped out of it and followed him into an office. It was hidden, but if you knew where to look, it was obvious.

We walked in and I noticed there were people already in there. I became self-conscious about myself. I hadn't had a shower in about a day or two, and I knew I looked like it too.

"Logan, welcome back." said the man behind the desk.

"Thanks wheels." said Logan.

"Katriana. So nice of you to join us here. How was your trip?" said the man in the wheelchair.

"How did you," I started, but I soon heard a voice inside my head.

"We all have our own gifts, child." said the voice.

"Come, sit, let us get to know you." said the man in the wheelchair. "First off, my name is Professor Charles Xavier. I am the head of this school. And next to me are Scott Summers, Aurora Munroe, and Dr. Jean Grey."

"Hello." I said to all of them.

"Everyone this is Katriana." he said. "Katriana, it is my understanding that you were studying to become a doctor, am I right?"

"Yes, but I strayed from that path." I said sadly.

"Well, if you would like, Jean here could help you get back along that path and maybe reach the end?" said Charles.

"I don't know, I mean, I just got here and,"

"That's alright. We will give you some time to get situated and to think about it. Jean, would you please show Katriana here her room?"

"Sure." said Jean. "Come." she said.

I got up from my chair and grabbed my bag from Logan's feet.

"It was nice meeting all of you." I said.

I followed Jean out of the door and up stairs. She took me down a hallway and stopped at a door.

"This will be your room. Mine is right down there, I share mine with Scott, and Storm's is right over there."

"Storm?" I asked confused.

"Oh I'm sorry, Aurora's. And Logan's is right across from yours." she said. She opened the door and walked in. The room was spacious enough and it even had a private bathroom.

"Now, I'm sure you want a shower, I know I would too if I spent more than a day with Logan." she chuckled. "But when you are ready, just let me know and I will come get you and show you around."

"Thanks." I said. "Uh, how will I know where you're at?"

"Just use your mind." she said. I only nodded, not quiet sure what she meant. I shrugged and went about my business. I unpacked all of my clothes and set up my picture and other little nick knacks from my past. I grabbed some spare clothes and went into the bathroom, thanking every living thing that I could finally take a shower.


"I don't know Charles." said Logan. "Something about her is obviously connected to me, but what? I mean, no one else I have ever come across has had dreams that involve me or my past." he said.

"That is interesting. Did she say what the dreams were about." asked Charles.

"She said that, she was lying down, strapped to a table. There were men in lab coats standing around her and they kept poking her with needles. Those are the same dreams that I have been having, but why would she get them?" said Logan.

"I'm not quiet sure." said Charles. "But, when she is done getting cleaned up, we will have Jean run some tests on her to see what she is actually capable of, and hopefully figure out why she is having the same dreams as you." said Charles.

"I already know what she is capable of." said Logan.

"Like what?" asked Charles.

"Boy, where do I start. Well first off, she has pointed ears, kind of like a fairy or a pixie, and her hearing is extraordinary. She has violet colored eyes that change with her mood. Uh, she has wings that sprout from her back, and she can retract them, making it seem like she is a normal person. She can control things with her mind, kind of like Jean, and she can read people's minds too, but she says it gives her a headache so she never does it. And she can also teleport." said Logan, taking a deep breathe.

"Teleport?" asked Charles.

"Yea, she can be in one place and then poof, she's gone. She never goes far though, maybe a couple of feet, but she doesn't know how to control it." said Logan.

"Can she control any type of her power?" asked Charles.

"Uh," said Logan with a deep sigh, "She can control her wings, but sometimes there stubborn and won't retract. She can also use her mind power pretty well. Oh, and she can also conjure up a ball of electricity in the palm of her hand." said Logan.

"Well, she seems to be very powerful, and could be even more powerful if taught how to use her powers the right way. Don't worry Logan, we'll get to the bottom of these dreams. Why don't you go and get cleaned up. You must be exhausted." said Charles.

Logan only nodded and got up from his chair. He grabbed his bag and went for the door.

"Oh Logan, I noticed that Katriana had a slight bruise along her face, but it seemed to disappear as she talked."

"She has healing abilities like me. That's why." said Logan.

"Interesting." mumbled Charles. "That is all, go on and get cleaned up. I will call you when her tests are in."

Logan nodded and left the room. He walked up to his room and shut the door. He laid down on the bed and fell asleep within minutes.
