"Lyla, you can let go of my leg now."

"No."

"I'll take her." Erik chuckled, scooping me up and placed me on his shoulders. "Lyla, are you ready to meet your new friends?"

"No." I answered and showed my claws.

"They're mutants, liebchen. Just like you and us."

"There's nobody like me."

"That certainly is true, Lyla." Charles said and gestured for Erik to put me down but he didn't move. "You are special in your own way. But inside that room are people who just might understand you and-"

"Charles, I'm eleven."

"Let's just get her inside and she'll understand." Erik offered and opened the door. "Everyone, this is Lyla Howlett. Lyla, this is Alex, Sean, Hank, Raven, Angel, and Darwin."

"That's a child!" Raven was the first to protest and I swiftly climbed down from Erik's shoulders and pressed my claws close to her neck.

"And she just may be thrice as deadly as all of you here, Raven." Erik defended. "Remember what we talked about, Lyla. We don't kill our own kind."

"Keep pissing me off and I just might."

"A child with the mouth of a sailor apparently." Alex mumbled and I glared at him. "Oh, I didn't like that."

"Fuck off."

"Lyla, behave." Charles warned and I retracted my claws from Raven's neck. "Erik and I will be back soon... Lyla, I suggest you get acquainted with them."

"They smell scared." I grinned and they all took a step back. "I like it when people are scared of me."

"Charles, this isn't going to work like you think it will. She's been in solitary and locked in a literal cage for too long." I heard Erik whisper and I turned to them.

"About eight months or a year... I counted the time by the rats and raw meat they used to feed me. They wanted an animal, so they treated me like one after my Daddy was killed."

"Jesus Christ." Hank huffed.

"Right... Lyla, you're coming with us and we'll try this again after you've calmed down." Charles sighed and held my hand. "We're going to have to work on your communication skills."

"Why talk when I can kill?"

"I have my work cut out for me with you."

"Plane leaves for Russia in an hour."

"These kids are not ready for Shaw. I think Lyla is the only one ready and we have to have her on a short leash."

"No you don't." I defended.

"You wanted to slice open an agent of a federal agency, liebchen." Erik sighed and held my hand.

"He called me a freak. I am not a freak... I am an assassin. I was just doing my job."

"Where on Earth did you find her?" Moira asked with wide eyes.

"In a hole where they threw away the key. Luckily, I know how to pick locks." Erik shrugged as I jumped on his back. "But those kids are not ready for Shaw."

"You'd be surprised. They're exceptional young people." Charles assured and screaming was heard down the hall.

"What are you doing!?" Moira yelled and they all froze.

"Can I kill them now? They disobeyed." I whispered and Erik shook his head.

"Who destroyed that statue!?"

"It was Alex." Hank quickly said.

"No, it was Havoc. We have to call him Havoc." Raved said and I raised an eyebrow, climbing off Erik's back and held his hand. "And we were thinking you should be Professor X, you should be Magneto and Lyla should be Ravager."

"I expected more from you." Charles told her and we all walked away.

"I like it." I simply shrugged. "Can that be my name now?"

"For now, yes."

"Okay."
