Storm sat in the teacher's lounge with Hawks was asleep on the couch. It took her a few tries to get him to let go of Jean. But once he did, Storm asked Jean to go back and inform Professor X they found him and Strom would be with him. Hawks muttered something rolled his sleep, a wind barrier caught as he almost fell off.
Carefully, Storm gets up and moves him back onto the back of the couch. Where he curled up and hugging his doll. Sighing, Storm sits back down and goes back to a book she had been reading.
After an hour of quiet, Hawks stirred. He sat up, rubbing his eyes before looking over at Storm. How did I get here? He wondered, looking around. Looking back over at the white-haired woman, he sent one of his feathers towards. It got closer and closer until a small gust of wind stopped it.
What, how? He watched as she set the book down and released his feather. Hawks watched it return to his wing as she turned to face him. "Sleep well, Hawks?" she asked with a smile. He blinked his gold-brown eyes but nodded. "How.. did you do that?" he asked, letting out another yawn.
"You mean how did stop your feather." Hawks nodded his head trying his best to scramble off the couch. Storm moves her hand lifting him. Hawks panics but finds himself on the ground. "I've had years of practice with my powers."
Everyone is so skilled, and am I not? I want to be like them already. Hawks hugged his doll, looking down at it. I want to be a hero.
A loud ring startled him. Hawks looked around quickly feather sharpen as wings move to protect him.
"Its alright, just he school bell." Storm said kneeling next to him.
School? "Why did it go off?" he asked her. "Well, because class is over for everyone here," she smiled.
Hawks frowns, he still doesn't get it. Should get home dad must be mad by now. He walked over to door. He tried to reach it but, then it opened up. The five-year-old looked up to see — It's the kind man again, and the others. He looked at them. "Trying to leave Hawks?"
Professor X asked him. Hawks looked down. Why are they doing this? He nodded. "I want to be alone, I don't understand what that scary man said."
Logan raised his eyebrows as others looked at him. "Do you mean Logan?" Professor X asked him, Hawks nodded he hugged his doll tightly as Storm walked up from behind him. "He got spooked by what Logan and I were talking about with him." she said.
"Best, we be careful what we say then." Professor X said, then looked at Hawks. "I know what your heard is scary, but if you would like I can have one of my students, walk you back to the hotel." he offered the boy.
Hawks looked up at him. "Is that alright?" he asked him. The blonde boy nodded. "Uh.. huh." Professor X smiles. Hawks walked over and tugged on Jean's pant leg. "You want me to walk with you?" she asked him, kneeling down. Hawks looks down and nodded his head shyly. Yes.
Outside the school, a group of people waited. "There he is," one of them said Hawks and Jean walked out. The boy was clinging to her as they walked away from U.A. Quietly they fell a few paces behind them..
