One Way Home

Part III: Nothing left

You sit outside in the grass, still crying. You didn't want to break anything or hurt anyone so you went outside. You hear someone walking towards you, sitting next to you. "What do you want?", you say without looking. "We are here for you to make it better, and we will help you, I promise. I'll learn you how to control it.", Charles said. "I have nothing to fight for. I've got nothing. I don't have anything more then the clothes I'm wearing right now.", you say and burst into tears again, the grass around you becoming yellow brownish. "I'm so sorry...", you apologise. "How is it possible you can influence other's emotions but can't control your own?" You shake your head and look down at the grass. "I'm just so sick of all this. Not being able to control the things I do". "Come on, let me show you your room.", he says and gets up, sticking out his hand to help you up. "So, what do you do with your powers?" "I make people laugh when no one laughs at my joke, for example.", you say while following Charles up the stairs. "Pretty smart.", he says and chuckles. "This is your room.", he says and opens the door of a big sleeping room, but all rooms seemed to be quite big here. There was a queen sized bed in the middle of the room, a big window with a view over the gardens, and a wardrobe across from the bed. You sigh and sit on the bed. "You miss your stuff, don't you? I'm sure we could go shopping tomorrow. Raven would love to go with you". "But I don't have any money.", you say. "Don't worry about money, we have plenty. It's just about you, and we are going to help you". "I can't thank you enough, you've really meant a lot to me.", you say, hugging Charles. You hear a knock on the door. "Charles can I talk to you for a second?", Erik asked. "Sure. I'll be right back, Y/N". You lie on your bed, looking outside. You try to follow the conversation Erik and Charles are having. "But she is dangerous! What if she destroys everything?", Erik says. "That's the whole reason I brought her in, to help her control it. Alex couldn't control it first and we learned him how to. We could do the same for Y/N. She has nothing left". "You've always had this weakness Charles. Always helping other who don't have a chance. Pathetic". You feel Charles is disapointed in Erik, and Erik mad at Charles. Charles walks in again. "I'm sorry Erik is just a bit-" "I know how he feels.", you cut him of. "It's alright though. I know how Erik is. I felt it.", you say. "It's getting late. Do you want me to show you the bathroom? I'm sure you can borrow some pajamas from Raven". "Sure, thank you."
