Chapter 4: The Shrunken Hero

Professor X had heard the scream and went to find Hawks as he reaches a bend in the road as he turned to corner. He was taken aback by shock.

Sitting before him rubbing their eyes was Hawks well, a five-year-old version of Hawks. Small wings that seem full but ratty his clothes in a heap around him the shirt was like a night gown.

"Hawks?" No reply.

"Keigo?" Professor X called to him as he approached, the boy who turns blurry eyed at him.

"Yeah?" Hawks replied unsure what to make of the man before stumble back curl his wings around him. How does he know me?

Professor X studies the boy before him. He seamed confused. "Do you know how you got here or who I am?" he asked him, his voice soft as he spoke. Professor X wasn't sure what happened but, he figured it must have messed with his memories. From the way the boy was behaving.

Hawks remained silent unsure how to answer the man's questions. Yet he looked up at him replying. "Am I in trouble?"

Professor X's theory was right. "No, why would you be in trouble?"

Hawks looks down, trying to hide in the mound of clothes, glances up warily. What does he mean not in trouble?

Professor X frowns, seeing the confusion and fear in kid Hawks' face. "Come here, how about we on get out of here." Professor reach out to grab him.

Hawks flinched and back way shield himself with his wing. Peering between his feather wasn't sure if he should follow trust the man. He saw surprise and confused on Professor's face blood drip from fingers where his feathers must have cut. Oh no he's gonna be mad.
"I'm sorry. Please don't hurt I go with you."Hawks shook eyes wide pleading with Professor X not to punish him.

"Hurt you? Keigo I'm trying to help. I know you didn't mean it."

Hawks flinched but low his wings a the hand touch his hair confused. Not mad? Hawks looked to see more of kinder look along with confusion on the man's face.

"I won't touch you but can you hand me those clothes you can walk along side me." Professor X wasn't sure how to explain things to the kid.
Hawks hands the clothes and gear to him and follows after. Only option was to reach out to his X-Men. Looking over at the five-year-old Hawks. The boy looked very confused and scared his wings pressed close head down. His eyes saw the boy held a doll. Did he have on his person the whole time?

"Are you wanting to ask me something?" Professor X catches the boy's eyes.

Hawks was silent as he was thinking to himself. Who's this kind man?

'I'm Professor Xavier,' He said with slight chuckle seeing the shocked look in Hawks' eyes as he jumped from the voice in his head looked up at Professor.

"Didn't know I could do that." he smiles at Hawks.

He shook his head. "No."Clearly was surprised and a little in awe.

"You know I'm a very powerful telepath. Able to read minds long distances away and a few other things as well." Professor X said.

Speaking of which, we were followed here."
Hawks was confused. Followed us?

Professor X had to give them credit where credit was due. They managed to trail them without adult Hawks knowing they were there.
