Chapter One - The Past
For sane purposes I'm changing some of the ages of the characters. Charles will 26 Raven 24 and Philippa 22 which means I want Hank to be 24 as well. The meeting still happen but I couldn't stand the fact that logically in days of future past Charles is supposed to be 40s but still looks in his 30s. I technically only own Philippa. Anything that is not in the movie I say is my creative writing.
-Philippa-
I was running constantly running. I had to get away, away from that place. Where I was exploited for my gifts. When my legs finally gave way so did my emotions and my abilities were let loose. I could hear nature roar with anger. Thunder and lightning boomed across the sky and the wind picked up as it began to rain.
'Help me somebody please help me' I cried in my head. I was lost and scared I didn't know what to do. For a 13 year old that was a big thing.
'I am here, do not be afraid' I heard although from what little I could see there was not a single person around.
'I am too far gone I am hearing voices' there was a chuckle
'You are not, my name is Charles and I heard your plea for help. Where are you. You must be close for me to hear you.'
'Help me please help me'
'Give me a sign of where you are anything that can help us get to you faster' I used every ounce of energy I possessed that was keeping me conscious to hold my hand out and I saw a bright line of fire take off.
'You control fire, hold on. Help is on its way' I managed to notice when a boy and a girl who looked a few years older than myself arrived.
"It's okay now you're safe' he whispered and I fell into blackness

When I woke up I was no longer outside but I was in a bedroom a very grand bedroom. I tried to sit up but I ached a lot.
"Morning sunshine" a chirpy voice called I looked to the side and saw a very perky honey blonde teen sitting beside me. I was scared and outside began to show it as it suddenly went dull and bleak you could hear thunder rumbling.
"It's okay, I'm not going to hurt you. I swear. My name is Raven my friend and I found you last night." I thought back to snipped from what happened.
"Charles?"
"Yes" I jumped at the other voice "My apologies for startling you. Charles Xavier and you are"
"Scared very scared" I brought my knee's up to my chin.
"There is no need for you to be. Like Raven said we're not going to hurt you." he sat down on the bed next to me facing me.
"You are very special. Your elemental manipulation is extraordinary. It seems to be tied to your emotions."
"Charles" Raven scolded
"Sorry." he cleared his throat.
"I was saying there is no need for you to be scared you are safe with us. Why don't we start with a name."
"How can I trust you?"
"What can we prove for you to trust us" I thought and then I remembered my second power and held out my hand. He looked confused but gave me his hand. I grasped it and images from birth to not flashed through my mind and I watched the highs and lows of Charles Xavier.
"What is she doing?" I vaguely heard Raven ask
"Unbelievable, she has a second gift. I can feel her flicking through my memories as if she was reading a book." i blinked at looked at him, i could trust him
"I trust you"
"I'm confused" Raven stated
"She looked through me to determine whether i could be trusted or not. she unlocked doors i didn't even know were closed." I looked to Raven
"Give her your hand." Charles told her and she held it out. i took it and watched on through the struggles she was born with and the feeling of having to hide.
"You are like me different" I let go she had a few tears. "It will pass I open everything up and soon they will close and you will forget most of what I saw." It took her a few moments before she sighed and smiled.
"So what's your name. Seen as you know you can trust us."
"I don't have one. I was always called girl."
"You're parents?"
"Killed by a mobster when I was a child apparently. I was taken in by them and they learned of what I could do, abused me and exploited my powers. I only had one day off and they said it was because everyone should have a birthday. According to them a few days later they celebrate their greatest achievement, killing my parents. 13 years that how I know I am that age."
"oh you poor thing" Raven hugged me and I winced.
"If you want you can live with us, we can protect you."
"Why would you do that"
"Because we are kin we are different together. And we must stick together."
"What about your parents?"
"Don't worry about that he is very good at convincing" Raven smiled
"All we need to do know is name you"
"Hummm you look like a Philippa."
"Philippa" i tried it
"Or Pippa for short" I smiled
"I like it"
"Well them Philippa or Pippa it is" and that was how I became a part of the mutant trio
