I awoke the next morning with butterflies in my stomach. I was nervous and excited. I finally know what direction to go in my life. I took a look around my new room, taking in the hardwood floor that matched a wooden accent wall. I stood, walking towards one of the two doors of my room, one of which was a closet stocked with extra blankets, sheets, pillows and towels; the other door lead to a bathroom. My room overall was similar to that of a hotels, I would have to add some personal touches to make it more my own.
I quickly showered and changed into the sweater from the night prior and my jeans from yesterdays incident. I took a breath, preparing myself for the days outcomes, knowing they would be just as crazy as yesterdays. I left my room and took a look around, wondering which direction I would need to go to find the professor. As if on cue with my thoughts, I heard the professors voice in my head directing me where to go.
After a brief while of directions I was faced with an closed door with the sound of many voices inside. I knocked, only for the door to be opened instantaneously. Inside the door consisted of many of the famous X-men: Jean Grey, Cyclops, Storm, Beast (who I have come to know as Hank), Nightcrawler, Iceman, the Wolverine and finally Professor X himself who was sat at his desk. I hadn't prepared myself to be face to face with all of them this morning.
As I stepped inside, everyone's attention turned towards me, causing me to nervously shrink back into myself. "(Y/n), thank you so much for joining us this morning" the Professor smiled.
"How did you know I would be coming?" I asked quizzically, moving my gaze around the room to each of the X-men.
"A little bird told me" The professor responded, nodding towards Logan.
My gaze landed on the tall man who was stationed leaning against the wall with his arms crossed. My eyes lingered on him for a moment, his lips pursing at the professor for throwing him under the bus.
"Well, uhm, thank you for the directions" I said with a light chuckle, motioning to my head with my hand. "Did Logan tell you I would be accepting your offer?" I asked, moving my attention back towards the professor, attempting to ignore the stares from the other X-Men.
"First name basis already huh? Lucky you" Cyclops interrupted sarcastically, only to receive a glare from Logan.
"No he hadn't" the professor continued, aiming to break up any conflict between the two. "He just told me that I should expect a visit from you today, although I did have a feeling." He explained, rolling over closer to me. "Scott if you could continue the meeting? I have some other matters to attend to with our newest member".
"Of course, Professor" Cyclops, or Scott, stepped up to a board that I hadn't realized before. I took a quick look towards the board where images of the pyramids and an ancient looking tablet were present.
I looked back towards Logan, who's eyes I could feel lingering on my for the majority of the previous interactions. I gave him a small smile, before turning and following the professor outside. He led my back downstairs, the area that I had awoken in the day prior. At the end of the hall there was a room with a giant X on it. He stopped Infront of a scanner, which accepted him after it examined the professors eyes. The door opened, leading to a large spherical room with a giant platform that led to the middle.
"This is Cerebro" he started, rolling towards the end of the platform were a helmet lay, "It allows me to amplify my powers, giving me the ability to connect with everyone in the world, now stand very still."
I stood behind him, in awe of the giant room. I watched as the professor put on the helmet, turning the machine on. The walls around me morphed and changed into a galactic looking realm. "Every blue dot is a human being" He explained, then the room turned red, "every red dot is a fellow mutant."
"I never realized how many of us there was.." I said in astonishment.
"The ability to connect your own mind to another is an extraordinary gift" The professor explained, turning the machine off and setting the helmet back down on its stand, turning around to face me.
"I will aid in training you mentally, do that you can unlock those telepathic powers of yours. You may not realize they are there, but they rely deep in your subconscious" He started, moving towards the exit to Cerebro. "Logan, who I am aware you already met, will train you in battle so that you can learn to use your power to help us in rescue missions and against peoples who threaten humanity."
"Like Magneto?" I asked, following the professor out of Cerebro.
"Precisely. I am sure you are wondering about why exactly the things that happened yesterday happened" his eyes narrowed as he continued, "Magneto and his followers have found the location of an Ancient mutant artifact, one that would allow him to manipulate reality as an entirety, not just magnetic fields. This would give him the ability to reshape the world as we know it to fit his vision of mutant superiority, leading to the extinction of human kind. Our current objective is to find the location of the artifact before he can, neutralizing it before he can get his hands on it." He explained, continuing down the hall.
"I thought we stopped Magneto though?" I asked.
"We had, but while he was being transported to a high security mutant prison, the trucks were stopped and he was saved" The professor continued to explain, leading me to the examination room I was in yesterday.
"Now, do you mind if I enter your mind in order to try and work out why your power is blocked?" The professor asked, motioning me to lay on the table.
"I don't see why not" I responded, taking my place on the table, laying my hands over my stomach. "I don't know what all you'll find in there" I chuckled lightly, and then it went blank and I was transported back into my mind.
