A/n: This is my first NCIS fan fiction so please go easy on me. btw. any character you don't recognise is mine, Katherine Xavier is Charles Xavier's daughter you can find more about her in Justice X, Erin Richards is an empath that I came up with out of the blue
Newly Gifted
It was Monday morning in the Xavier Institute for the Gifted and, as usual, it was hectic.
"This is just chaos" Erin Richards observed
"This is normal, Erin, you should see it when Uncle Kane stages an escape from Stone Gate" Katherine Xavier, Charles Xavier's daughter, replied offhandedly.
"Okay, who are we talking about?" Erin asked in confusion
"Juggernaut" Katherine replied simply
"Oh, I can imagine" Erin said understanding
Meanwhile Charles Xavier had a lot on his mind. There were new reports of a mutagenic substance being transported illegally, and unlike any he had ever heard of prior this one could create true mutants without killing the person in question. He couldn't help worry that this substance could end up harming an innocent person.
Abigail Sciuto was moving around her lab, music blaring and a smile plastered on her face. Things were going smoothly, but the calm never lasted here. The fact that a window pane had been pried loose was beyond the forensic scientist and the sound of breaking glass was missed, but the smoke quickly filling the room couldn't be missed.
Jethro Gibbs arrived in the lab and nearly dropped Caf-Pow and coffee at the sight of Abigail 'Abby' Sciuto sprawled on the floor of her lab.
"Abby"
He emptied his hands and went to check her pulse he sighed with relief when he found one. Then he called Dr. Mallard
"Ducky, I'm in Abby's lab, she's collapsed"
"Oh dear, I'll be right there" Ducky said and was there within a few moments
"My my, what put you in this state, Abigail, and did you see it coming?" Ducky asked Abby's unconscious form. Gibbs was searching for clues nearby
Gibbs used a glove to pick up a bit of a glass vial on the floor
"Given that vial's position relative to where Abigail now lay, I would say she wasn't handling it when she collapsed" Ducky observed
"Agreed, Ducky, then how did it get here, and what's in it?" Gibbs wondered
"Very good questions Jethro" Ducky said "I wish I could answer them, but I cannot"
Back at the Xavier Institute, things were quiet, but Charles couldn't shake the feeling that something bizarre had happened. He had no idea what happened and that part bugged him more than anything.
Jean Grey could see a change in Katherine's behavior and she knew this particular change never meant anything good.
Kitty Pryde was sitting behind Erin Richards and could see her squirming in her chair, and Kitty figured that Erin was just as bored as she was. Kitty had no way of knowing that this meant something had happened.
Gibbs was pacing the bull pin when Ziva got back in the room.
"Is something wrong, Gibbs?" she asked
"No, I'm fine, just thinking"
"About…"
"I went to check on Abby and she was unconscious in her lab." Gibbs continued
Ziva was stunned beyond words
"What happened?" she asked dumbly
"We don't know, Ziva, that's what's bugging the hell out of me"
Ziva sat at her desk and noticed when Gibb's phone rang, he answered it instantly and left in a rush. She figured some answers had been found about Abby, either that or Abby was awake. Either way, Gibbs could get a few answers.
