It was dark. The cold was a shock up against my body, considering I had been running around.

My body ached and begged for a break. I hadn’t worked this hard before.

“Hope!!” I heard Mikey call out faintly…where was he?

“Mikey? Mikey!!” Nothing. Turning slightly, I continued to look for him. The breeze pushed through my hair, sending a shiver down my spine.

“Hope!” There he was. On the ground in pain.

“Hold on Mikey I’m coming!!” The more I ran, the farther away he got.

“MIKEY!! Michelangelo!!”

“It’s so cold Hope. I’m tired…” Mikey muttered. I knew he was there before I saw him;
Shredder.

“Mi—“

“Hope!!” I jumped. Alex (McCoy) rolled her eyes.

“You still there?” I took a shaky breath and nodded, really hoping Lloyd would distract Alex.

No such luck on my part, of course.

“You sure? You really don’t look okay.” Kai chimed in. Looking around, I noticed that every ninja sitting here was looking at me, concerned. Including Zane (who was sitting at the exile table) these were my closest friends. Nothing was getting past them.

“I’m fine guys, I promise.” I lied, faking a smile. The clicking of heels behind me made me turn, and I was faced with my least favorite teacher in Hero High.

Let me preface by saying this: I don’t like telepaths. Someone in your head…no. I don’t like it, it bugs me.

“Are you sure about this Hope?” Emma Frost. Even some of the X-men weren’t fans of hers, which really should’ve been a warning sign. Didn’t Xavier have some other telepath lady? Like Judy….Jeannie…..Queen…..

“I am actually Ms. Frost. Now if you excuse me, I’m going to be late for class.” Then I felt it. That odd feeling of having someone search through your mind, looking for that one thought you don’t want them to have.

This being my first year, I could only hear things about Charles Xavier, from Leo and a few others. So far, all I know is that he didn’t push through kids heads like Frost did.

“Get out of my head!!” I screamed. My powers were mostly defensive; force fields weren’t much for attacking people (though Susan Richards insists that I can learn how use them for battle as she did), but I did know how to push them against people to push them back. Of course, this did very little when I used it against Frost; my force fields didn’t do much to someone with diamonds for skin.

“Hope calm down!” Cole exclaimed, taking my hand into his. Quickly I pulled away and glared at him.

“Are you kidding me? She was in my head!!”

“That’s no reason to throw a force field at her.” Alex said. She was one of those X-men who didn’t like Emma; which is why I was surprised she was defending her.

“You’re kidding right?”

“I would suggest you get that temper under control Hope. Attacking a teacher could get you in trouble.” Translation: I don’t like you anymore than you like me, but guess what, I have more power than you. Watch out.

“Whatever. I’ll see you guys later.” I muttered, attempting to open a portal to get to the DADA classroom. Unfortunately I didn’t do to well on that part; I landed on two girls named Kamala and Sam, and when I tried again I ended up upstairs; the classroom was down.

“Getting here was harder than it needed to be.” I muttered.

“Hey dudette did you hear? Doctor Banner--.”

“Sorry Mikey, I’m going to be late for class. Tell me later?” He looked upset, but was quickly distracted by the appearance of Beast Boy, who was like his best friend here. Walking into class, I looked around to see if I had any friends of mine here.
So far, no one.

“Settle down now, I know you’re all excited about a sparring day.” Chiron said, attempting to calm down the chatter of my other classmates. Sitting down at a desk, I sighed. Sparring days were cool enough; Chiron did them to make sure that we didn’t get too bored in his class, and to keep our interest. I didn’t mind the lectures to be honest. Taking notes in class seemed like a thing a normal kid would do, and right now, I really wanted to feel some form of normal.

Another bell rang, letting kids know they would officially be late for class now. Chiron cleared his throat, stamping his hove slightly to get our attention.

“Good morning class. As I let you know last class, today is a sparring day. You will be paired up at random with another students and asked to spar to the best of your ability. Remember that you do not want to hurt them, merely disarm them. Any questions?” None raised their hand. Chiron smiled.

“Good. Now, how about we back up to the wall please? Set your stuff aside and grab your weapon of choice.” Katana, obviously. I had a tessen too, but Chiron did say only one weapon of choice.

An opening appeared under every desk, swallowing them from sight. In their place, was an arena.

“Our first match of the day…Ms Samirah--.” The girl I had run into early. With Kamala…she normally went by Sam, and I almost didn’t recognize her with her helmet covering her hijab and the battle axe by her side.

“And Ms Hope!” Great. First battle of the day.

Sam and I entered the arena, and I tried to think of which Class she belonged too. Agent? No, I didn’t think so. Wizard? Nah, no wand…she could be a mutant. Doctor Richards mentioned that not all mutants were—

“Begin!!” Crap.

She made the first move, swinging her axe towards me, which I managed to block with my katana. I didn’t know anyone who could be as skilled as she was with an axe; I always considered it a weapon Raph would use, just charging in headfirst and swinging at anything that moved. However Sam used it like an actual weapon, like a katana. It was admirable.

Or, at least I thought so until she managed to cut my arm.

“Mikey, look out!!” He was gone…where did he go…where did they both go?!
A sudden kick to my back answered my question. I fell forward, and I was in front of Donnie.

In his hand he held the Ironman mask, only it was green, not the usual red and gold.
“Donnie you have to help me find Mikey…I think Shredder has him…” I whispered. He didn’t even blink before turning away from me….was that Stark he was walking towards? No, no way he was turning his back on us…on them…on his family….

“Donnie come back!!” He was gone.

“Hope?” My opponent, Sam, looked down upon me concerned. I could see Chiron in the background with the same look on his face. Growling, I kicked her backwards, something she didn’t see coming.

“I’m fine, let’s just keep this thing going.” Instead of looking at me, she looked at Chiron, as if to silently ask him if she should continue with the battle.

“Is anyone here?” I called out, but nothing expect shadowed whispers and darkness answered me back.

“You let them down you know. They got tired of it, your constant abandonment…so now it’s your turn to be left.” Zane. The seemingly emotionless Nindroid to break the news…

“They what…?”

“Don’t you ever listen? They left you Hope….you’re all alone now.”

“No….I can’t be alone…I don’t want to be alone…” I whispered. I felt a hand place itself on my shoulder, and I looked up to see Chiron.

“Go.” Despite the kindness in his tone, I could tell he meant it as an order. I didn’t have a choice, but I really didn’t want to see that mind witch right now.

So instead I sort of….wandered around. Just thinking to myself. At least, until she found me. Forgot as a telepath Chiron just telepathically talk to her or something.

“You’ve been avoiding me.”

“Stay out of my head witch.” She didn’t seem the slightest bit phased. I guess when you have diamond skin you learn to let things go.

“I am not here to hurt you Hope. I am here to help, those nightmares of yours need to stop.”

“I know they do, and I’ll get them to stop. Without your help.” I know she doubted it, but I didn’t give her time to protest before I stormed away.

“You know, you really should be nicer to the teachers, even ones you don’t like.” I rolled my eyes.

“Nows not the time Cole.” Despite my comment, he still took my hand into his.

“Yeah well, seems like the perfect time for me. Ever think that she actually wants to help you?”

“Ever think maybe she’s just a stupid witch?” He nudged me.

“Hey, be nice. I know you don’t like Emma, and the X-men don’t help that, but give her a chance. She might finally be able to stop your nightmares.”

“You’re all alone Hope. There’s no one else here.” He had vanished as well, but his voice was still there. Mocking me.

“Well then…I guess I better get used to the feeling huh?”

“She might Cole, but I have a feeling it won’t exactly fix itself correctly. It has to be me. I can do this.” He smiled.

“I know you can. I have faith in you.”

“You mean you Hope she can do this?”

“JAY WHAT ARE YOU EVEN DOING HERE GET BACK TO CLASS!!”
