Marian Glenn was only a child when her powers began to develop. As time went by, and as Marian grew into a young adult, her powers free substantially. Soon enough, her parents realized the danger that she could bring to...

"So, what do you think?" Charles asked, holding the door open for Marian to walk into the room. "Don't worry though, we'll only be here for a couple of days."
Marian stepped into the hotel room with a small sigh, wrapping her arms around her body as she looked at the interior. "It's small." She stated, looking back to the two men.
"We thought that you'd want to some privacy." Charles replied with a small smile. "So Erik and I are just down the hall."
"Thank you." Marian gave a small nod of thanks, and she placed her small bag of belongings on to the small chair in the room.
"Okay... well, I'll leave you to it."
Marian didn't turn back around when they left, she immediately walked towards the bathroom for a much needed shower. She quickly flicked on the hot water before walking back into the room, and grabbing one of her change of clothes. When she had first arrived at the institution, she had packed most of her clothes, thinking that she would return home within a couple of years. Clearly, that didn't happen.
Letting out a sigh of contentment, Marian closed her eyes as the hot water rolled down her back, taking all of the grim and dirt off of her. She stood there for a moment, just letting the water soak her before cleaning herself off. It had been a few weeks since she had last showered, so she mentally apologized to Erik and Charles for how bad she might have smelt. Probably wasn't very pleasant.
But that's how her life at that institution was. A day in the life of Marian Glenn consisted mostly of being tested on. If she behaved, and everything went well, she was rewarded with an extra days rest. Showers were a rare thing for her, seeing as she tried her hardest to resist the guards and scientists. But could you blame her; they poked and prodded her. Injecting who knows what into her veins so see if it would affect her abilities at all. To make a long story short, it never did.
The warm water soon became cold the longer Marian stood there, so she hurried up her shower and turned the water off. Wrapping a fluffy towel around her body, Marian stepped out of the shower and into the main room again, lying her clothes out on the single bed. She quickly dried off, but not before making the curtains were completely covering the windows.
It was quiet in the room. Just as it had been at the institution, but this wasn't an eerie silence. It was calming. Another sigh escaped Marian's lips as she pulled a small cardigan over her shoulders. Slowly she climbed into the bed, and almost as soon as her head made contact with the pillow, she drifted to sleep.
"What do you think of her?" Charles asked as he fell on to one of the beds, leaning his head against the pillows and looking to the ceiling. "Marian, I mean."
