lessons one (all students)

[xavier]

Xavier looked down at his lesson plan this class had many reasons for being it was to help him work out who was ready for the next stage of training and to find out who wanted to be an x men. not every one did. those who did would have to work harder.

He looked at his choices of teaching staff and it was lacking. He did hope some of the older students would come. He had put out the world that this class was optional and no one had to feel forced to come but it was important. That wa sthe first test to see who would come.

It was first thing in the morning so he did wonder which of them would come and which would sleep in slowly he looked up at the door as it opened. A smile filled his face well at least some of them were turning up.

Faith had somehow decided to stay at the school since her father had disappeared. She thought that if he had called this place home for a while, she perhaps thought she should try it out as well. He did tell her that the place would protect her, and that was all she needed to know. She also had decided since she was going to stick around for a while, to take some offered classes. Granted she had never attended school before, but she had been tutored in all the basics of an education where she was raised. It just wasn’t ‘legal’ was all. Another deciding factor on her staying was that her father could find her more easily if he decided to ever return for her.

Her first and only class was early in the morning. So early in fact most of the other students were still in their beds dreaming nice, safe dreams. She remembered what her father had taught her about her dreams, and how to steer them away from her subconscious. So she couldn’t sleep past five, no matter what she did. So she was already up at this time, and her early morning workout was done long ago. So why not take the class.

Faith walked into the classroom, which was empty besides the professor. She nodded her head in a silent greeting that was very much like her father, and took a seat near the back. She waited to see if anyone else would show up, and perhaps see what a real traditional school classroom setting was like.

Though new, Daemon walks in. With only his wooden disk he walks to an open space in the room. Instead of sitting at a desk, he places the disk on the floor and sits on it. He looks around the room. Daemon sits and wonders how many people will show.

After a minute, He closes his eyes and focuses. The disk lifts him up to about how high he would be sitting if he were in a chair.

Max was up the fact that he did not really need to sleep had helped with this. He walked in to the room he did hope Amara would be here. Slowly he slipped in to the room and looked around. he did not say anything but sat down. He looked at the girl who had entered before him. It was clear she had an attitude problem. she looked like the kind of girl who he hated at school she probably thought she was better than the rest.

He adjusted his seat and waited he did wonder what this was about but he was glad to be here. he wondered if he was being to judgmental but he could not help that. he did not know what to do most of his classes had been on the danger room and wondered if he would be starting normal classes in the new academic year. he had spoken with the professor a few time and had a respect for the man. well who would not he could do so much but choice to let people think what they wanted.

Aless walked into the classroom with her head held high. White hair pulled into mulitply braids and dressed in one of her own creations she clutched her books to her chest.

Now eighteen Aless wasn't sure if the Prof. was going to keep her as a student or what he would do with her. She hoped she would get to stay with the school.

The canteen of water that always rested against her hip rattled slightly,the water inside reacting to her emotions. Smiling faintly she noticed the other students in the room. Nodding to the Prof. with a bright smile she took a seat near the front of the class.

Xavier was glad to see that some of the students had turned up. he looked around the room it was less than he had hoped for. "please no power uses in the class take a seat like every one else." he took a deep breath well it was a good point to start with. "hello and welcome to this class. It is a very important subject mutant Ethics any one who wish to be a member of the x men must take this class and pass. Personally i feel that it is the most important subject i can teach you. " he cleared his throat.

"The world hates us as mutants so can you tell me what is the best way to over come this and why? and remember there is no wrong answer if you can back it up with reason."

Faith wasn’t there for long, before another student entered. She only watched as he walked over to an empty space in the room and levitated into the air. She sighed, wondering just what this class was all about when her nose picked up another scent approaching the door to the class room. She of course watched him enter, ever watchful of those around her. Old habits die hard, and she was no exception to the saying. She sniffed the air, and felt that this new guy didn’t like her much. She didn’t say or do anything, just shrugging it off. He didn’t know a thing about her, and she hoped to keep it that way.

She didn’t wait much long before another female entered the room, and took a seat up at the front of the class. She looked a little too eager to be there, but there was a reason that Wolverine’s kid was sitting at the back of the class. She didn’t fully trust herself among a group of others, as this was a first real test of her control over her anger since she arrived at the school. She of course could clearly hear the water inside the other girl’s canteen move in a different direction than the canteen itself. She only raised her eyebrow as if to question what this girl’s power was. Then before she could ‘investigate’ it, the professor started the class by announcing no power usage.

"hello and welcome to this class. It is a very important subject mutant Ethics any one who wish to be a member of the x men must take this class and pass. Personally i feel that it is the most important subject i can teach you. The world hates us as mutants so can you tell me what is the best way to over come this and why? and remember there is no wrong answer if you can back it up with reason."

Faith looked around the room, and raised an eyebrow. Really? No one wants to have a go at it? She sighed and raised her hand briefly before she finally answered the open ended discussion question presented to the four students in the class. ”The world hates us, because they fear us. They fear us because they don’t understand us. We should perhaps show the world that they have nothing to fear. Show them that we are just like any normal person outside our powers.” She responded, and let her experience speak for her instead.

"The problem is some of us are not normal. for example there are people who look difrent its hard for people to deal with them because how they look. The others well its hard not to fear some people look at them since i been here i have meet people who can read your mind shatter mountains with a thought. why would any sane person not be afraid of that? There people out there that have more destructive powers than a nuke. Yes they probably are normal people watch tv go on dates but the fact that they can think and your dead is enough to scare any one.

The hate us becuase we have these powers. some will hate us because we are different. look back threw time people have always attacked those who different. They do have some thing to fear. we cant change that but what we can show them is that for every one who they fear there is at least two willing to stop them. we should fight the fear with hope?"

max was stunned that all this came out were had it come from it was not the kind of thing he would say. like all people who were adrenalin addict they understood fear it feed them in a way like nothing else did weather it was diving from a plane or diving it was the rush that made the fear go away the action of dealing with some thing that was dangerous. "people will always be afraid of us we can change what people fear but we can show them that not all of us are to be feared."

[lockdown142]

Daemon quickly dismounted his board and slid it under his chair. "He has a point. Although, not all hate is fueled by fear. It may be a large factor, but there are other reasons we are hated. For one is inexplicably, jealousy. Because some admire our powers more than they could care to admit. While they also wonder why they did not get them. Though not understanding them does play a big part. Before my powers fully developed I didn't believe that they existed. And I spent a few years trying to ignore my powers once they came in. I learned that the answer was not ignore it. The answer is to control it. If more mutants would spend more time on controlling their powers then running from them or ignoring them altogether. That is how the powers become out of control. And that is what people need to truly fear." In fact Daemon was speaking what he truly believes. He did run from his powers at one point.

[catsgrin]

"You also have the notion that if something can only be used by certain people,those people can't be trusted wtih that power. Humans will always believe that they need to test and retest things before they allow common people to have them"

Aless shifed slightly in her seat as she explained,pulling her jacket closer to herself."While I don't like the idea of people testing on me,if there was a way for us to showcase what we can do,without ending up hurting people,then there is a chance for people to learn to understand out powers"

"yes you are all right well done. Very good now the interesting thing is how do we combat that fear do we stand out and be counted or do we try and blend in what is the key?" he was impressed they were smart. He was also happy none of them were taking Eric view on this and he hopped none of them would develop that view." he looked around a few of them showed hope and he prayed this was just the start of it.

he looked around with a smile on his face. If this was the views they held he was proud each of them had meant every word they had said.

[lockdown142]

"Well, Professor, I believe that it all depends on the situation. Based on severity of the power, dangers the power can cause if untrained or uncontrolled, etc. Because not all powers requires the same amount of attention as others. Like mine for example. My telekinetic blasts, untrained, can quite possibly harm myself and/or others." Daemon stops for a moment to catch his breath and think. "Anger plays a part in the control and use of our powers. I believe testing would push our powers a bit to far. I believe this because man is always trying to evolve. Our powers could be pushed beyond limits just for the fact that others want more than they can have. This example is shown at a very early age in any persons life. Like when a child wants more food than they can eat. Testing is also a bad idea because the child usually get what they want and end up not being able to eat it all. Meaning simply that by envying our powers, others will attempt to take them for their own usage. While unless they carry even a small mutant gene, can be too much to handle. Of course I don't mean that by they can not control the powers. It is that their bodies are not adapted to having the powers. Which can be mentally, physically, and even emotionally harmful and overwhelming. I don't believe that we should bombard the humans with it all at once. You could, although it could face dire consequences to the mutant population. Because, I believe we should understand our powers, how we get them, what part of our body does it truly emanate from. By that I do not mean like telekinetics and they're brain, and stuff like that. I mean like, is there a part of the mutant body that non-mutants do not? We should understand them before anyone else tries to." Daemon feels a tad exhausted from his theory being so wordy.

[max]

max listened the other man had gone on and he did not understand were he answered the question in his statement.. he did not know what the answer to this was. he cleared his troat. " we need to show them that we are not all bad. That we will not let other take advantage of those with out the ability to defend them self. The problem is the law we need to act with in it. As soon as we take the law in to our own hands, this makes us no better than those we would be trying to stop.

The police needs mutants with in there ranks to help stop mutants and people with powers after all what could a gun do agents some one who can stop a bullet with a thought or make them look the other way or even throw a fireball? they can't a police force should be there to protect every one. It is there roll anything we do should be with them not agents them.

The world also needs to start to see us like them doing normal thing going on dates or having thanks giving just like them. we need to remove the mystery from ourself make it so people can just stand up say i am a mutant and i need help."

[catsgrin]

Aless nodded slightly"I agree with most of what you said,but sometimes it isn't so simple. While we can help people with our powers,there are always going to be people afraid of us"

Folding her hands into her lap she frowned tightly"If we stand up and say we're mutants some people will see it as the start or a war,but if we hide ourselves they'll start whispering of conspiracy." Aless shook her head "There has to be some middle ground between keeping ourselves safe and keeping normal people safe"

Faith thought long and hard on the next question. It wasn’t because she couldn’t come up with an answer. No, it was because she wasn’t’ quiet sure how to word hers or how much to reveal about herself and her past with it. She listened to all the other students to respond first and then decided upon her answer just as the other girl finished talking. She knew this wouldn’t be easy on her part, and she briefly closed her eyes to sift herself between her answer and what needed not to be said.

She opened her eyes and looked around the room, attempting to meet everyone’s eyes as she did. ”We should not push ourselves into making them understand us. Control is key, but not everyone has control. And what is to keep someone walking in upon a small display of weakness in that control? From my experience, I have many people run from me screaming when they see me lose control of myself. And I am not a pretty sight to see in that state. In order for us to convoy that not all of us are bad, we first have to wait until they are ready to understand and accept us. And for those of us that have a lack of control over themselves, perhaps we should work upon that control. Even perhaps…oh I don’t know…put some literature or something out there about how we are just as fearful of their ire as they are of us.” She couldn’t believe she said all of that. She hadn’t even said that much at one time before in her entire life. This is defiantly a new milestone for her in her new life.
