Great. I don't really wanna meet people. I just learned I was a
mutant. I need at least a few minutes to gather my thoughts. But no, I
don't get any. Oh well.
"attention students," professor Xavier said over the
intercom, "I would like you all to meet in the dining room to meet our
new student."
I'm guessing that's me.
"Ready?" Storm asks.
"Nope," I reply, "but let's do this."
I hear chatter before we even get there. Storm pushes me
through a door, and suddenly we're facing multiple teenagers talking
amongst themselves. As soon as I get there, they all stop talking an
look at me. I suddenly get really nervous, and I stand there not
knowing what to do next.
"Welcome," says a voice behind me. I look back and see
Professor Xavier wheeling up next to me. "I would like you all to meet
our newest student, Drake Laurelson. Now, I want you all to come up
and introduce yourself.
"hello mine friend," on guy says to me in an unmistakable
German accent, "my name is Kurt Wagner."
Then, a girl with long brown hair comes up to me. "It's
like, totally cool to meet you drake. I'm Kitty," she said.
"Hey. I'm rogue," a goth girl says to me. Great. A German, a
valley girl, and a goth, all in the first three people. This is
certainly going to be interesting. Other teens introduce themselves.
Evan, Amara, Sam, Ray, Bobby, Tabitha, and Jamie. They all greet me.
"These four are my top students," Xavier says pointing to
Evan, Rogue, Kitty, and Kurt, "We also have four teachers who aren't
here at the moment. They are away on business."
With a loss of interest, all the students file out of the
room, leaving me alone with the professor. "Now," he says, "I want you
to test out your powers.
A minute later, I'm standing alone in a place Xavier calls
"the danger room". I don't know why. Xavier is in a room directly
above, looking over the entire area. "ok drake," Xavier says to me
telepathically, "I want you to change into your dragon form." I try. I
search for that area in my mind that I used to change last time. Found
it. I can feel the power coming from it. I activate it.
I can feel it working. The scales appear on my body. I'm now
in full dragon mode. Then, I notice something I had not before. Two
horns stick out of my hair at least six inches.
"Excellent Drake. Now, I want you to figure out your other
powers."
I think. I can feel my mind. It's smarter, faster thinking. I
knew it. Dragons can breathe fire.
"Good Drake."
Whoops. I guess Xavier eavesdropped on my thoughts. I gotta
be more careful. A red target pops in front of me. I stand in a
stance. I gotta figure this out. I breathe in, then exhale sharply. A
ball a fire rockets out of my mouth, exploding the target in a burst
of incinerating flame. Awesome.
"Very good Drake. Very good."
Xavier's right. That was incredible. Another target pops up.
If I could do a fireball, perhaps I could do a stream of fire, like a
flamethrower. I inhale, then I exhale harshly, but continuously. A
steady stream of fire comes out of my mouth, burning the target with
the searing flames. Even better.
I step back and thrust my hand forward, hoping I had fire
hand powers. Not quite. My sharp claws shoot out of my fingers and
impale what's left of the target. Even as I look, the claws grow back
until they're normal size. Cool.
Now to flying. It's obvious I can fly because I have wings. I flap them with caution for a few minutes, then flap harder, catching the air with their mighty span. I'm immediately air born. I slow down to glide before I hit the ceiling, and soon I'm circling the danger room over and over. My technique is sloppy though. Looks like I'm gonna have to get used to my powers.
Now to the dangerous part. Landing. I slow up to try to land softly, but it doesn't work. I come in too fast, hit the ground hard, and go sliding fast into the side of the room with a jarring impact. I'm dazed for a moment, but my powers apparently give me more pain tolerance.
"I think that's enough for today," Xavier says, "but I think you'll fit in just fine here."
I know these past few chapters have been kinda slow, but don't worry. The next chapter is gonna be huge, and set up a lot of stuff for the story. I do apologize in advance if it takes me a long time to upload it, but I will try to do it in a timely manner.
Also, I still need OCs for villains. So please, review your ideas. I need their name, age, power, mutant name, reason for being evil, and personal background. PLEASE REVIEW YOUR IDEAS.
