X-men: First Class Reader Insert

Path

"Well, I, I can turn invisible too." You explained and let yourself turn invisible.

"Woah, where'd she go?" Sean asked in a joking manner.

"Secret agent name?" Raven nudged.

"I don't really have one." You muttered.

"Invisi-girl." Sean suggested.

You wrinkled your nose in disgust, "definitely not." You turned off your invisible skills and reappeared, "I'll just stick with (y/n)."

"Aww, boring." Raven laughed as she nudged your arm, "you've been hanging out with old fart Charles too much."

"I just don't have a creative name." You shrugged.

"How about Path? Because, pathokinesis?" Angel suggested.

"Sure." You nodded, not willing to argue with the group.

"Alex, what's your gift?" Darwin asked, "what can you do?"

"Uh, it's not, um..." he awkwardly brought a hand up to scratch the back of his head, "Um, I just can't do it. I can't do it in here." He explained.

"Can you do it out there?" Darwin motioned out to the courtyard beyond the shattered window.

"Why don't you do it out there?" Raven jumped on Darwin's idea.

"Come on." Angel persuaded.

"Come on!" Sean pushed.

"Guys, if he doesn't want to, we don't need to push him." You protested as you stood up and tried to shush the group.

"Alex." Darwin started the chant.

"Alex! Alex! Alex! Alex!" everyone chanted as they tried to pump him up. Alex relented and stood up to exit out the window.

"That's the spirit!" Darwin shouted happily.

"Guys." You whined, "Alex, you don't have to show us if you don't want to." You put a reassuring hand on his arm and gave a quick glare towards everyone else as if daring them to argue that.

Alex shook his head, "it's fine." He stepped out of the window, "get down when I tell you."

"Get down when I tell you." Sean mocked.

You slapped his arm, "if he's saying that, there must be a good reason behind it!."

The group leaned out from behind the wall to see Alex prepare himself to show his power, "get back." He stated and the group retreated. You however, were standing far away from the window, and the rest of the group. The rest of the group leaned around the wall again. "Get back!" he demanded, when the group didn't listen he relented, "whatever."

Alex let a bunch of red energy rings form around him and he let it spin around before it shot across the courtyard. One of them slicing right through the statue and causing it to fall to the ground, on fire.

"Guys!" you cried out in a panic, "how are we going to fix that?"

"Relax (y/n)." Raven slung an arm around your shoulder and you were bombarded by her excited emotions, "live a little!" she laughed and then broke off to dance around.

The room quickly evolved into a party with people dancing and all around messing around. You knew in your heart that Charles would be angry to return to the seven of you having a party and making a mess, but the highly charged atmosphere wouldn't allow it. Slowly, your frown turned into a grin, and you're stoic atmosphere turned into a party animal.

...

"Yeah!" you laughed excitedly as you danced around with Raven and Angel. Drinks had been passed around earlier, but you insisted that you didn't need any. Even through the highly charged atmosphere, a small part of your brain told you not to have any. It didn't matter, just the drunk atmosphere made you seem like you were drunk. The loud music echoed throughout the room and you let out a shriek of excitement before jumping off of the coffee table you were standing on. You landed on the floor and then fell down to sit on your bottom, laughing the whole way. "Charles is on his way." You giggled, "him and Moira."

The entire room seemed to stop for a moment as everyone minus Raven looked at you curiously. "How do you know that?" Angel asked cautiously.

You just tapped your head, "magic." You giggled again.

"She's drunk, it probably doesn't mean anything." Darwin shrugged and then the party started up again.

"Alex! Catch me!" you shouted as you launched yourself across the room onto him.

"Woah, (y/n)!" Alex struggled to keep you in his grip and to avoid the two of you toppling to the floor.

"Whee!" you whooped.

"What are you doing?" once again the atmosphere turned on a dime, but this time, Moira was actually here. "Who destroyed the statue?" she demanded.

"It was Alex." Hank pointed to said person who really couldn't do much with you in his arms.

"No. Havok." Raven corrected, "we have to call him Havok. That's his name now."

"Can you get down (y/n)?" he mumbled embarrassedly to you, and you quickly complied, stumbling ungracefully to the floor.

Raven continued, "and we were thinking, you should be Professor X," she turned to point at Charles, "and you should be Magneto." She turned to point at Erik.

You accidently let out a giggle from your point on the floor which caused everyone to look at you. You smiled and gave a wave.

Erik gave an annoyed glare before huffing, "exceptional."

"The sarcasm is strong in this one." You mumbled under your breath.

Erik glared again before turning away and walking to wherever he needed to go. Moira quickly followed suit.

"I expect more from you." Charles hissed before he walked away too.

"Your hair is great Charles!" you shouted after him and the rest of the gang turned to try and shush you.

"I told you she didn't need a drink." Raven murmured under her breath, "this is why we don't invite her to parties."

...

You gradually 'sombered' up once the party atmosphere had left. What replaced it was a calmer, more shameful atmosphere. Especially coming from Raven.

"He's just stressed Raven." You gently pat her shoulder, "us having a party didn't help him ease that stress. Especially when he's trying to get the government on our side."

"Yeah." Raven mumbled, but she didn't seem entirely convinced.
