Chapter 4 - The key to POWERRR

They rushed towards the few soldiers chasing us.

"Every one, open fire"

Birds fell like arrows, beaks piercing skin through eyes mouth some going straight through with the momentum.

'Bang, Bang, Bang'

Worms wiggling from the ground teeth hidden were used, mutated worms.

Foxes, deers, bears, mountain lions.

Until silence in forest remained.

The animals started moving away to their native habitats.

Just then, an air craft hovered above us.

It was very advanced, my sister cradled our mother not even glancing at it.

I stayed on high alert, this could be shield.

Who are still infiltrated by hydra, secretly.

I taken aim, waited as it slowly landed next to us.

My body combusted into void flames.

A deep purple flame hotter than a sun but controlled to perfection.

Fire that raised the temperature in an instant.

Scorching the earth to magma under feet my body started to hover off the ground.

like a endless self sustained flame.

~Wait, we mean you no harm child~

Just as my hand raised with an attempt to leave not even ash.

The voice was familiar held worry and concern.

"Dangerous child you are, just like your father"

I narrowed my eyes at the aircraft.

"Are you reading my mind"

"Can't do that with you're mind, But your father is a different story"

I looked towards the direction of the cabin.

"I been told to take you with us"

"You're father had left out of my range"

Just then a blue man appeared covered in fur.

"Hello, Hello there don't be scared, I'm Dr. Henry or just Hank"

"Take my hand"

I turned towards my sister and reeled in the heat to a human temperature.

As a clear purple out line stayed.

Void fire like the void can be hot or cold.

My hand reach my mother's lifeless corpse as ice started to spread.

Until she was but a block of ice.

"Can we bury her somewhere else"

There was anger held in the eyes of the blue furry man.

He gazed at the hole silently with his glasses.

A clear view of where the bullet gone in and out, thanks to the ice.

He to had encountered a couple cases just like this but the difference.

They were late for the mother but the children are safe.

"Definitely, don't worry we take her, too"

I pulled my quiet sister close, who seems on the verge of passing out.

The beast like man grab us both and jumped into the aircraft.

Jumping down again.

Then up with our mother in hand causing the aircraft to tilt slightly.

The bland man called out,

"Alex, strap the kid and the teenager in"

The young teenager Alex shrugged.

"I kinda, don't want to get burned"

Alex gesture at me with a friendly smile, I payed him no mind.

My sister grip onto me and our mother dead body not far away.

"I'm, Professor, Charles Xavier"

A man in a wheelchair rolled towards us.

"Please take a seat" 

He jester to the two empty chairs.

I nudged my sister, who reluctantly had the blue beast man put the seatbelt on.

My eyes drifted down while doing my own.

A girl voice echoed into my mind.

"Hey, I'm Jean, Jean grey, we should be almost same age"

I, ignore her and stayed silent.

Clearly not in the mood to talk with this disaster.

"So, How school like"

Silence.

I turned my attention towards the talkative girl who shuffled underneath my gaze.

She was uncomfortable with the sudden attention but held firm with confidence.

"Never gone to school, my skin color"

I raised my light grey blue arm up.

"Instead, Homeschooled"

She gave an awkward smile from my words.

"Haha, Uhm, I'm sorry, I too was homeschooled"

"Just think, its funny how similar we are"

I couldn't help but think she was a bit of an idiot but returned a smile.

"What can you do?" 

I asked already knowing.

~Stuff like this and much, more, I can't control it perfectly, yet"

~Right now, Everyone thoughts are subconsciously within my mind~

~Except for you, so~

The aircraft suddenly stopped, buckling us all forward violently.

"Alright people, we are here"

Alex yelled out as beast landed the plane.

Professor Charles, simply watched on in contemplation. 

"Welcome, to, the school for gifted children with special abilities"

"Who need a home for themselves"

A Sanctuary and Training Ground, I thought logically.

"Follow me, the both of you, Hank will get the funeral ready"

"In the meantime, Jean, show them around"

She was almost bubbling with excitement.

It was only held back due to the dire situation.

'FINALLY!, Someone to talk to without having listen to there own thoughts'

Jean grey, smiled reach for my hand that was still on fire but held no heat.

[Ping]

[World Eater: Devour upon creation for storage or assimilation destruction]

[psionic energy available for consumption]

[yes/no]

My eyes widened at the moment.

I didn't know this was possible.

The Phoenix Force is a cosmic entity in the Marvel Universe, representing the nexus of all life and psionic energy.

I was curious on what will happen.

"Jean, I think we can help each other"

I gave my most charming smile at this energetic girl.

Who was probably just happy to not have to deal with other people voice inside her mind and have a normal conversation.

As long as she didn't know the next set of words while the person is speaking.

She turned to look me in the eyes.

"What do you mean?"

I thought for a moment.

looked at my sister, then at the distance where children played similar to her age.

I kneeled down like my dad did to me even though we were almost the same height.

"Try to make some friends like the animals that protected and help us in the forest"

"Nina, we are safe, don't worry, ok, go have some fun and try to forget today"

I lifted her drooping head for an eye to eye.

"Go, play"

She nodded tears fading at the edge of her eyes with a false smile.

Nina paused turned to me then, she ran over to the playing children.

'Whistle'

"Nice parenting there old man"

I turned, Jean gave a teasing grin.

Meanwhile in the principal office.

"Erik, where are you we got your kids"

The phone stayed silent.

"You think, Just because you can see into my head, You know how I feel"

"Charles"

It was the professor turn to stayed silent for a moment.

"She wouldn't want this"

A silent tear crossed down the young Charles face.

He knew his friend had no more reason to hold back against humanity.

The love of his friend, lay in the hanger dead incase in ice.

Just then, Charles eyes blackened.

"So, much powerrr"

He murmured underneath his breath.

The voice of the young professor changed to a second different voice.

"Not enough, A way, Cerebro is the key"

The man bound to the wheelchair moved through the school avoiding everyone.

Like a ghost.
