My name is Z Jones. Ever since I can remember, I've been on the move, trying to get away from people lurking around, trying to catch me.

"Huff. Huff. Huff." I'm running through a mall, trying to get away from the people stalking me in the shadows. Not looking where I was going, I ran right into a boy with red shades on. His shades fell off, but he didn't open his eyes to pick it up.
"Sorry!" I said handing him his glasses and sprinting away. I accidentally used my telekinesis to pick up a vendor. The boy saw me and I automatically put in down and started running. I heard his footsteps behind me, so I sped up.
"Wait!" He called, "I know a place that could help you control your powers."
I stopped in my tracks. "You can help me? But what do you know about having mutant powers?"
He tapped his shades. "I can shoot eye beams out of these. Is that enough mutant power for you?"
I shook my head yes. Then I saw one of the people, took his hand, and sprinted the other way.
"Who are you running from?"
"Stryker." I turned a corner and entered a space between to stores. Once Stryker's goons passed us, we exited the space and I put on a disguise.
"By the way, my names Z Jones."
"Scott Summers."
"So, about that place.."
