I managed to brush off the Professor's suspicions and luckily he decided not to probe my mind. Wolverine on the other hand, not so easily fooled. He decided that we would all have a training exercise in something called the ''danger room", To see how well I fight. Alone as well as with others.

The training exercise went rather well. I blasted through most of the laser pits and death traps with ease. Despite the energy I used to keep my appearance spell up.

Protecting others was easy, but learning to trust my new team mates was something of a challenge, but by level 4 I was so worn out from the battle that I found myself with no other choice. I was more then happy to be bailed out of a corner by one of Storms lighting bolts, or one of wolverine Adamantium claws.

"Your powerful kid, but you've gotta move faster." He had warned after pushing me out of a laser blast.

Kurt is a much stronger and more accurate Teleporter then I am. He quickly manovers others out of harms way. Disappearing in a cloud of deep blue smoke. Sending me the most adorable smirks wherever he comes near.

Such a wide variety of high level power's. The most impressive was the girl called Rogue, she has the ability to posses the powers and memories of other mutants after simply touching them. Though the process is rather painful, I learned this the hard way on level 5. Though her power comes with a price, she cannot touch any living creature for longer then a few seconds or she will kill it.

"So let me get this straight, we've been in the same room this whole time?" I ask The Wolverine after the session is over. "Yup." He answers not turning to face me. "So you can program this room to simulate almost any kind of situation?" "Yup" I get another one word reply.

Just as we are all sitting down to dinner, Hank comes rushing into the room and warns that several members of the brotherhood has left Genosha, and are fighting squad of sentinels right in the center of Atlanta. Putting the lives of innocent humans at risk in the crossfire.

I've heard of this "Genosha" before. Every mutant has. The supposed sanctuary for mutants that was impenetrable to sentinels. I always thought it was a myth...

"Blackbirds up in 5..." Called Logan jumping up from his seat. "And new girl, your coming with us."

Following Kitty I ran back to our room to put on my jumpsuit and cloak. I was surprised to find clean and freshly pressed on my bed, when I picked it up I saw that a silver circle with a black X in it had been pressed onto the area above my heart on the jumpsuit. I picked up my cloak and something rattled to the floor. It was a silver belt, with another black X on the belt buckle. "Really working the whole "X" thing huh?" I asked Kitty, holding up the belt. "Well your an X-Men now... It's part of the uniform." She replies.

"Nervous?" Kurt asks once aboard the Blackbird, leaning over from the seat beside me to talk into my ear. "I don't get nervous..." I reply firmly.

"Why are we stopping the brotherhood again? I mean There fighting Sentinels, the same things we do?" Iceman asks rhetorically. "Because Bobby, Though we may fight a common enemy, they do so without regard to the human life around them. If we ever want to live in peace with the humans again, we must show them we mean no harm." Answers Charles Xavier without turning around.

It's a short flight to Atlanta, upon arrival I looked out the window to see an army of at least 15 sentinels blasting mercilessly away below. "Ok, maybe a little nervous..." I gulp quietly. One Sentinel I could handle, But a small army...

I feel a warm gloved hand over my own. "Don't worry mine liebe I've got your back." He smiles, giving my hand a reassuring squeeze. "Danke" I thank him in his native tongue. Winding my fingers through his. Which felt less awkward then I thought it would, considering he only has 3 on each hand. I look up to see Wolverine staring at us, he rolls his eyes. "Knew it..." He mumbles under his breath.

"Ok kid, here's the rundown..." Wolverine says to me. "First priority, get the humans out of harms way. Second Priority, take down the sentinels. Third priority, Fight the brotherhood only if they start it."  "Sabertooth is down there..." States Cyclops from the jet co pilot seat "There gonna start it."

I look out the window and through the dust and rubble can make out several mutants. Some I recognized from a slide Hank had made me watch after training. The first to catch my eye was the one who called himself Magnito. I've heard tales of him long before I ever met the X-Men. A mutant so powerful that the government changed the designs of all sentinels so they could not be controlled by this metal manipulating mutant. He wore a oddly shaped helmet that was the same shade as his blood red cape.

Next was a the amphibious mutant, one called Toad. Who's skin had a sickly greenish tint. Not that I'm one to judge on skin color. Beside him was the mutant appropriately named Blob. A man who was an immovable mass of body fat. Very strong as well, he was lifting cars and tossing them at on coming sentinels. Avalanche stood on the other side of the street. He apparently has the ability to manipulate and create earthquakes. A beastly looking man who reminded me of wolverine, was climbing and clawing all over a sentimental below. Immediately I knew that to be Sabertooth.

Now I know why they call it the "Brotherhood" not a female mutant in sight.

Wolverine sniffs the sir and a growl escapes him. "Kurt, Violet, Kitty Jean and Rouge..." Calls Storm as the jet descends to the ground. "You get the humans trapped in the bus out of harms way. The rest of you scatter and take down the sentinels."

The second the Blackbird touches the ground I follow Kurts lead and teleport out. "Looks like the welcome wagon." Toad snickers as the rest of the team leaps out of the jet. Ignoring him I teleport into the bus. It was pinned under several dislodged pieces of concrete. No doubt the carelessness of this Avalanche fellow.

Several passengers scream in fear. Kurt pops up beside me in a puff of dark blue smoke.  Followed by more screams.              "Be calm, I'm not going to hurt you..." I raise a hand, forcing my Romanian accent down as much as possible,because it's most ineligible when I'm nervous. "Ja, were the good guys. We are going to get you out of here." He speaks calmly as Kitty and Jean arrive.

After we had gotten every single passengers off safely, we join in the fight with the other's. Several Sentinels lay in pieces on the floor. The Professor and Hank were in the blackbird above, emptying rounds into the giant metal hunters of my species.

The debris of the battle crunched under my boots as I release a destructive spell onto the nearest Sentinel. Magnito is a good 20 yards away, using his magnetic powers to hurl cars and other heavy metal objects at same sentinal I'm fighting. Looking around I see that most of them have been taken down.  Purple magic steams out of my hands, clawing its way onto every nook and cranny of the monstrosity.

"You must be the newest piece in Charles collection." Magnito acknowledges me. "What do they call you? He asks as he aims a garbage truck right into the centre of the Sentinels chest. The cracks in its exoskeleton that the impact creates is just enough to allow my magic in and destroy the thing. "Enchantment." I reply through gritted teeth.  The sentinel crumbles into small pieces. I move on to the next one beside me.

"You posses great power, Enchantment. Why not join the Brotherhood, where this power can be better appreciated?"

He asks, stopping his fight just to watch me. I aim my power at the very core of the incoming Sentinel, but still it walks towards me. I up my power, but still it moves, slower now but still coming closer. I Grit my teeth and unleash every ounce of my magic onto it. I hear Magnito suck in a breath when my appearance spell is broken. Revealing purple skin and silver hair. With all of my power focused on destroying the all ready battered Sentinal. It explodes in a burst of purple magic.

I look around, all eyes are on me. With the battle over, I drop to my knees in utter exhaustion. Following the sounds of baited breath I find Magnito staring at me with wide astounded eyes."Violet...?"

"How do you know my name?" I ask suspiciously, rubbing my aching shoulder. "B-Because..." He starts, as if struggling to find words. "I am your father."
