(Jasmine)
   Frigid rain fell from the darkened sky. A slow rumble came from the world above. I wasn't all to interested in the cold I instead listened to my slow breaths. They released a small cloud of warmth into the frigid air. I hugged onto my cloak tighter. I then heard the sound of footsteps coming my way. I hide closer into the shadows of the alley. I closed my black irises. I heard the pursuers steps fading away. I stepped cautiously alley and walked threw the dark streets. I went to a park across the street. I then stopped walking.
"Your sense of smell is commendable". I said still not turning to face the pursuer.
"We're not here to hurt you". A husky voice said.
"An accent not born here". I stated more as a fact then a question.
"We just want to help". He said. I turned around. My black irises stared into his blue ones.
"Who are you"?
"Wolverine".
"No your real name".
"Logan". I pulled off my hood.
"Jiahladi most call me Jasmine".
"I'm with the X-Men".
"I've heard of your group. Why contact me"? I asked.
"We've heard of the reports of jewelry thefts. The wires we're tripped but the culprit was never found on tape. You can't use your powers to steal". I gave Logan a witty smile.
"I was hoping I could play this off. I need to show you something Logan, call off the others". After a brief pause he said.
"Alright, there headed home".
"How did you do that"?
"We have a telepath".
"I see well come along and try and keep up". I put my hood back on. I led him to an orphanage. "The reason I steal is this place they were slowly going out of business".
"Let me guess this was where you grew up".
"Nope I just felt like helping".
"What your doing here is great an all, but stealing is steal wrong".
"I know". I said.
"My last run was yesterday the orphanage will be around for another twenty years of so". I said looking at the building mindlessly.
"I guess I'm done here so about this place for mutants got room for one more".
"Yeah I'll take you there".
"Good I'm tired of being Robin Hood". Before long I was at the X-Men facilities.
"Jasmine a pleasure to mean you. It's late so I'll have Jean show you your room and we'll have a chat tomorrow".
"Thank you, for the hospitality". A girl with red hair and green eyes that was about my age walked up to me.
"Hi, I'm Jean". "Jasmine". She showed me to my room. When she left I looked over the room. I took off my cloak. I had jeans and a white turtle neck underneath. I looked in the mirror that was in my room. My onyx black skin was still dry unlike my snow white hair that was in buns three buns on my head. I looked at my black irises and yellow sclera. I then started wringing out my fluffy tail that was the color of my hair. I took my hair out of there buns. Half my head was draped in long white hair that was wavy from being damp. I then heard a knock on my door. I went and opened it.
"Yes". I was met with a guy who seemed my age. He had brown hair his eyes were covered by red shades.
"Sorry, Logan said you might need towels sense you where out in the rain". He said.
"Thank you". I said. I took them. He kinda just stood there after I took them. "Is that it"? I asked.
"Oh yeah sorry to bother you". He said waking away. I closed the door. I dried myself off. I then pulled out a small suit case I brought with me. I got out some pajama pants and a tank top. I put them on then went to bed.

The next morning I woke up late. I put my hair in a pony tail. I then went out of my room. I found the kitchen and grabbed an apple. I realized that a few people would look at my tail. "Thinking of staying here"? I turned to see the guy that had brought me the towels.
"I intend to". I said.
"By the way I never got your name". I said looking at him.
"Sorry, I'm Scott".
"Well it's nice to meet you Scott I'm Jasmine by the way".
"Yeah about last night".
"Never happened".
"Thank you".
"Yup".
"The professor would like to see you now".
"Alright, lead the way". I was led to an office. I took a seat on the other side of the desk. Scott walked out closing the door behind him.
"Is this some interrogation to see that I'm not a human hating mutant because I'm not".
"No not at all I just like to talk with all future X-Men". Xavier said.
"So wait I can join that easily"?
"I don't see why not".
"Is this some kind of interrogation about my past".
"No your past is your business. I just want to know what is your agenda here".
"That's it"?
"As far as I can see you're not a threat".
"Well I want to help other mutants". Xavier smiled.
"Very well, welcome to the X-Men".
"You're not gonna make me wear one of those jumpsuits are you, because I have my own fighting clothes".
"No, you seem confident in your combat skills".
"I was trained".
"Suit up and I'll have Jean and Scott take you to the danger room". I nodded and walked out.
