A while later Logan appeared back in Charles Xavier’s office. ‘Hey Chuck, kids all settled.’
‘Very good Logan, but I have some information I wish to give you about Alexander. I couldn’t get a reading from him, neither could Jean, so I want you to watch him closely. I don’t consider him a threat, but I want you to be on your guard.’ Mystique said it with as much sincerity as she could muster, but really she just wanted to laugh out loud.
‘What about the others? Do they know?’ Logan asked warily, Chuck was acting different, he had scented him, but there was nothing off about it, however he was still worried.
‘They don’t know about what I’m asking you. I want this between you and me until we get everything sorted, ok. Can I trust you Logan?’ Mystique knew she had him then, Logan was always the good guy, even if he didn’t want to be.
‘Yeah sure Chuck. I got it sorted.’ He made to leave the office, but Charles called him back
‘Oh, Logan. When he wakes up tomorrow could you also run him down to Henry and get him examined.’
‘Ok.’ and this time Logan left the office and made his way to the weight room, he really needed to think for a bit.
As Logan exited the room Mystique’s voice came out of Charles Xavier’s body,
‘Stupid fool.’
Xander was asleep in the room he had been assigned, it was great huge bed, bathroom adjacent, big huge windows that let the light in, it was lovely, but he couldn’t really fully appreciate it because he fell asleep.
He seemed to be in a glowing white room, very blindingly white.
‘Can someone turn off the walls?’ he called to the emptiness, well it was empty until two people appeared glowing just as white as the walls, one was a man and the other a woman, the man was the first to speak.
‘Hello Alexander, we are the oracles of the Powers That Be.’ he stated in a proud voice.
‘The powers that be, what?’ Xander asked, he was confused, how did they know his name, he hoped they weren’t evil.
The woman spoke up, ‘We are not evil Xander, we work for the side of good. The Powers That Be are the ultimate good and we are their oracles as you are their champion.’
‘What?!!! Champion. No. No. No.’ he started to get hysterical ‘There is no champion here, I am not a Buffy or a Willow. I don’t have the skills for this.’ and he hadn’t realised it, but his hands had started to spark again.
The man spoke again. ‘This is why you were changed Xander, to become our champion, to fight for the side of good with all your might. You have such a great amount of power in you, you don’t even know it.’
‘W . . .wait a minute, let me just get things straight. Everything that’s happened is *your* fault?’ Xander was angry, he couldn’t believe these people, who basically thought they were better then him, had messed up his life.
‘You people think your so much better then everyone else.’ his hands started to spark slightly, ‘You think you can just take me away from my friends, the only people I can call family. Then think I’ll be completely happy about what you’ve done . . .’ He started to pant hard from the amount of rage he felt towards these two powers of ‘good’, yeah, right.
The male oracle spoke up, ‘Alexander I suggest you stop you calm down, your powers will become out of control if you don’t keep hold of your emotions.’ Xander seethed until he finally controlled himself.
‘Thank you.’ he continued. ’Now, we brought you here so that you would hopefully listen to us, let us explain to you more about the powers bestowed upon you.’ Xander gave a faint snort of disbelief, which then made the female oracle look at him in annoyance.
It was silent for a moment until Xander said, ‘Fine, explain my *gifts* to me then.’
The male oracle started to speak, ‘Well as you already know, you can create a form of energy, which radiates throughout your body, but is focused more in you hands, basically for directional purposes, a way to aim, however you probably don’t know how you recharge the power, fuel it so it is at it’s fullest power.’ the oracle saw the shake of the Xander’s head in response. ‘Well your powers are powered by the mightiest power of all, the sun, it feeds you like it does the plants, your body soaks it up like a sponge with water, but you must focus when you are doing it, otherwise you would be doing it all the time. Just standing in the sunlight and reaching with your mind is enough to get you started. The whole thing is instinctive.’
‘But why do I look like this?’ Xander pulled at his too long hair and pulled out then retracted his claws.
The female oracle quickly spoke up ‘New world, new appearance.’ Xander partially believed her, but knew she was hiding something.
The male continued ‘And the fact you needed heightened senses, we had to merge you with your hyena spirit, you are the outcome.’
‘None of this explains why I’m here.’
The oracles both looked at each other for a while silently communicating, then the male replied, ‘You are here to train for something to come in Sunnydale, but you must learn your powers, we thought here would be the best place. There is something going on here that you must help stop before you can go back to your friends in Sunnydale. This is all we can say, that and watch out for the Professor he is not who he appears to be.’ there was a flash of more blinding white light and they all disappeared from the room.
Xander woke up back in his bed, still feeling slightly confused, what a meeting that was and with the oracles no less, but he couldn’t help feeling like they hadn’t told him everything, he’d just have to deal with it when it came up.
Climbing out of bed he padded towards the adjacent bathroom, he looked at the mirror and saw how he looked for only the second time, he really hated his hair now, who ever had it this long, he decided he was going to cut back to the way it was, it wouldn’t be too hard he always cut his hair himself seeing as he and his family usually didn’t have enough money for it.
Finding some scissors and setting everything up Xander had a pee then got to work on his hair and then showering himself.
Finished showering Xander left the bathroom wrapped in just his towel, he decided to open the curtains and let some light in, then remembered what the oracles said about his powers being fuelled by the sun. He stood there basking in the sun feeling his powers grow, he focused on the draw of the rays into his body and felt calmed and relaxed. He opened his eyes, not even remembering closing them and got around to getting dry and dressed. Only then there was a knocking on the door as he put the towel aside and went to get his clothes from off the bed.
Logan knocked on Xander’s door, already able to tell he was awake at the rate of his heartbeat.
‘What do you want Logan?’ was called from behind the door, Logan was shocked for a moment by his reply, he had completely forgotten that Xander said he was able to do some of the things he could do.
‘Hey kid, I need to talk to you.’ he called back
‘I’m not a kid, I’m 18, ok and . . . .’ Logan cut Xander off as he carried on speaking and pushed open the bedroom door,
‘Fine. Xan . . .’ Logan didn’t finish his sentence as he saw Xander, naked, *again*. ‘Uumm .. .sorry.’
Logan turned away to face the now closed door, but not before he had seen how Xander’s body had glowed in the sunlit room, actually he kind of sparkled, he knew it probably had something to do with Xander’s mutation.
Xander quickly covered himself with his towel ‘What, don’t you *knock*’ he shouted ‘I mean for fuck sake.’ he stormed off into his bathroom to finish putting his clothes on.
Logan didn’t know what to say to the retreating form of Xander, so called after him the first thing that popped into his head ‘You cut your hair?’
