A Hero's cry
Thank you Jessica
Chapter 4
"Harry come here please" asked Xavier interrupting the class, he looked angry for some reason. Harry frowned, wondering what was going on, sighing softly he got up and walked with the person he thought of as a father.
"Come on in Harry" said Xavier once they had gotten to the headmaster's office.
"What is the matter?" asked Harry he was not timid as he was when he arrived sitting down he noticed Jane and storm were in the room.
"Harry, do you want to go to the Wizard school?" asked Xavier.
"No, why do you ask?" asked Harry confused.
"Well you declined to join the Mutant school; we sent the letter to you wanting you to sign it. It came back funnily enough by owl saying you didn't want to join the school properly" said Xavier.
"I don't know how, I've not signed anything" said Harry his eyes wide, if he didn't then who had was all he could think.
"Here" said Xavier handing over the paper.
"This is not my handwriting, and it's not my magical signature that's on it! It's the one that was around my home when I was little," said Harry looking at the paper he could see magical signature unlike the other mutants.
"Dumbledore guy then" said Jane looking angry.
"How dare he write for someone? That's not right! It even as the signature on it!" snapped Storm angry as the sky outside turned a dark color.
"Calm down, it's not right, I have a feeling if we had not gotten you, you would never have known about the Mutant school" said Xavier frowning.
"Can I get a new one, I do want to come here, I already am here," said Harry looking hopeful.
"Yes Harry. Don't worry we were not going to stop you from coming. We had at first thought you really had just not wanted to come. However, now we know differently I will give you another acceptance letter, here" said Xavier handing over paper, which was obviously an acceptance letter.
"Thank you" said Harry looking angrier that someone dared write his acceptance form and send it back.
"This one will be null and void as soon as you sign that one so doesn't worry" said Jean watching Harry who was angry.
"Good, I'm not happy with that man, how dare he block most of my magic and sign things that are mine," said Harry.
"But why did it go to Dumbledore and not you?" asked Storm.
"I don't know," said Harry closing his eyes he reached deep into his magical core and thought to myself.
"Anything addressed to me will come directly to me, nobody else".
"Do you think it worked?" asked Jean when Harry opened his eyes.
"I don't know, and if its wizard magic I doubt it" said Harry. Unaware that the spell Dumbledore had making Harry's mail come to him, frizzle and disappear.
Signing of the acceptance letter, he handed it to Xavier in satisfaction. He could hardly believe how close he had been to loosing his place as a Mutant just because of that man. He hoped he never crossed path with the man, otherwise he would kill him. He loved it here, with Jean and Xavier as his mentor's and secretly his parents.

"Harry Potter is missing" said Dumbledore sighing softly he had just placed a silencing spell around the Ministers office.
"How on earth did that happen?" asked Fudge looking panicked.
"He ran away when he was eight" said Dumbledore softly.
"The little brat! And did he answer his Hogwarts letter?" asked Fudge.
"Yes, he just didn't arrive" said Dumbledore.
"Did you send someone to get his school things?" asked Fudge.
"Unfortunately not, but he should know because Petunia had to go with Lily when she went to Hogwarts. She should know the way, they didn't report him missing fearing Squibs and Wizards may get the Muggle newspaper" Lied Dumbledore.
"Yes that's sensible, otherwise people would know already, good she is obviously not stupid. How on earth are we going to find the boy?" asked Fudge looking tense.
"I don't know, I will look for him, but we must reassure the people that nothing is wrong. The whole school aren't daft we were all surprised when Harry didn't come. I think I will just say something like this Aunt is ill and he wants to stay with her. There are many Muggle illnesses hopefully we will have him in a few months. I have tracking spells on him as well, so nothing to worry about I'm sure" said Dumbledore.
"Good, let's just hope they haven't faded, with any wards where are you going to put him?" asked Fudge.
"Well the Weasley's will probably befriend him, so I will put him there" said Dumbledore.
"Hm…good light family I suppose," said Fudge nodding his head. Letting the headmaster deal with everything, and plus if the boy doesn't turn up he can pin everything on Dumbledore. He had after all not known where the headmaster had put the boy.
"Yes, now excuse me I have children to deal with" said Dumbledore getting out of the chair.
"Yes, yes good day Albus" said Fudge, as Dumbledore left.

"Argh!" said Harry clutching his head in pain.
"Harry are you alright?" asked one of the students.
"Move aside" said Storm as she got to Harry.
"Harry what's the matter" asked Storm.
"I need to see the headmaster" said Harry, reminding himself he was officially in school now he could no longer call them Xavier nor Charles even Jean because they were officially teachers and he didn't want to disrespect them.
"Very well, class continue what you are doing, no using your powers and no fighting" said Storm as she helped Harry to the headmasters office.

"Harry what is the matter?" asked Xavier.
"Someone was calling for help, it hurt I even know where they are!" said Harry moaning in pain.
"Clear your mind, welcome the presence of help into your mind, don't try and shut it out, it won't be loud trust me" said Xavier soothingly as Harry began calming down.
"Thank you" said Harry sighing softly god, he thought he had been going insane there.
"Your welcome, now tell me everything" he said. He was always willing to help someone in need.
"Well there is two people in need of help, one is being attacked and the other is stuck in a car, they are in the same area, there is a Mutant there, he has the Aura of a saber-toothed tiger" said Harry.
"Sabertooth." said Storm and Xavier at the same time.
"Harry stay here, Storm get Cyclops immediately and go and help you will be able to sense them yourself" said Xavier.
"Cant I go?" asked Harry.
"Fine you and I will go with them, I wont let one of my students getting hurt" said Xavier, he could not deny Harry anything, but also knew not to worry for Harry could protect himself.
Plus of what they knew, they knew that Harry would be a powerful, wonderful fair leader. Of which magical world was the question, Mutant or Wizards, the two worlds would fight over Harry in the end.
He would need experience as well as confidence that he could be a leader, and what better way than to see himself helping people. This was perhaps the first step of Harry being who he truly was and what he was meant to be.

"Hang on" Storm said, Cyclops, Xavier and Harry all held on, Harry wondering what she was doing.
He found himself, high in the air, the air rippling around them, guiding them to where ever they wanted to go. Mist settling around them so they were not seen, they didn't want their Mutant powers being found out.
They were landing within minutes, just as Harry was beginning to enjoy being in the air. He found himself at a battle sight, seeing a man being hurt by another one he put his hand out, a blast of fire cascaded out. Hitting the man straight in the chest, he went flying right into the woods, a fire started up in the woods, it seemed like the man was more than likely dead.
Harry was amazed to see that claws were in the man's hand, even more so when he suddenly saw them go back into the skin. He had never seen a Mutant ability like that, he looked like he could take care of himself. He wondered vaguely if it had hurt when he took them out.
Harry then spotted someone struggling in the car, running he grabbed Cyclops along with him.
"It's ok." said Harry as a girl looked at them in fright.
Cyclops burned the seatbelt away, Harry had grabbed her bare hand, and suddenly Harry felt himself weakening, screaming in pain, he fell unconscious. Storm quickly grabbed the girl she had gloves on so it didn't affect her. Cyclops grabbed Harry and they ran for cover.
Xavier had stayed next to the man, who was healing rapidly, and was soon better. Xavier knew immediately this was a Mutant, when he heard Harry screaming he wheeled over as quickly as he could. Wolverine quickly went over to the girl.
"What happened?" asked Xavier.
"I'm sorry I didn't mean to!" said Rouge hysterical.
"She said earlier that when someone touches her something funny happens" said Wolverine looking down at the kid with concern.
"I see, get Harry to Jean, lets get out of here" said Xavier.
