Flashback-
"So you picked up something other than the girl from your scan" Professor Xavier frowned "were you able to discover what it was?"
"No Professor, whatever it is it's protecting her mind. I was unable to go any further then the surface and some particularly painful childhood. Everything else is shielded, no matter how hard I tried."
The mutant man frowned "are you sure?"
"Yes Professor, I've never come up against a barrier so powerful before. No matter what I tried, it kept me out."
The man's frown deepened "this is indeed worrisome. If she is an spy or threat to our school, we must know."
"But also it may be that she is doing it just out of instinct to protect herself, in which case if we force our way in, how much damage will it do to her?" she looked down at the unconscious girl, tenderly stroking her sunny blonde hair away from her tanned skin. This girl was already important to her, just glimpsing her abusive past and feeling her determination to be seen as who she was, her once sense of absolute loneliness spoke to her.
This girl could almost be THEIR child, hers and Scott's, she reminded her so much of them, both herself and Scott and also ALL of mutant kind. Her feelings reminded her deeply of herself, her painful past was what nearly all mutants went through, but her incredible sense of empathy was all Jean. If the Professor didn't accept her into the academy, she was all but ready to raise, even adopt her.
"Why wouldn't I accept her, Jean? Her mother left her in our care as her last wish."
"Because if Hank is right she's not a mutant, just some sort of enhanced human. That makes her a mutate, not mutant OR human."
The Professor shook his head "it doesn't matter what the technical terms for her are, Jean. She is gifted like us with something no human can understand let alone do. Even if the people in her world can do the same, she is an unique being here and should be treated with the same rights and such."
Jean frowned "I'm just worried about her reaction to all this, Professor. She's an sensitive soul who takes everything to heart and has already been hurt, not just by the same sort of predjust as us, but the death of everyone she held dear. Right now the only things holding her together is whatever...it is and the power from her mother."
"We won't expect her to leave here until she is ready, Jean, if ever, that sort of trauma is something you need more than days or weeks to recover from. She will probably be here years, longer than any other student. There is also the language barrier and teaching her about the rules and laws of this world..."
Jean was relieved and continued to stroke her hair from her head "can you enter her mind and help her?"
"I have no idea how powerful this shield is or if this...presence is strong enough to retaliate to an deeper invasion. I will have to be cautious and try the surface first then slowly deepen."
Jean nodded and the Professor reached out to touch her arm gently before closing his eyes to concentrate. Memories flew past him so fast he didn't catch any, voices, faces, most grimaced in hate, a few in kindness, until he reached an impasse.
He found himself with a 'body', standing up on his own feet in an pitch black room. Across from him he noticed a slight glow and shimmer from the wall, almost like you get from when the day it too hot and everything looks like an illusion. Stepping forward he reached out to touch the surface to find it almost like jelly. Forcefully he pushed in, finding it difficult to walk, but knowing what was on the other side was probably where he wanted to go.
Eventually he reached open air and once fully on the other side he looked around himself. He was in an long stone corridor with doors either side, each unique and unusual in their own way. Each held labels or pictures in Japanese kanji, things like 'pain' and 'fears' and 'friendship'. One door was gold and larger than the others, labeled 'Uchiha Itachi '.
Professor X frowned, weasel? Why? Was it someone's name perhaps? Why was it better than the others? Did he mean something to her? Someone important, or admired?
Other doors as he walked down were labeled with names, but none as fancy as the other. One labeled 'Uchiha Sasuke ' was strange. It shifted between red, black and blue. These he knew were important colors, they implied the owner of the name evoked mixed feelings in the girl, from anger to concern to betrayal. Whoever the name belonged to had betrayed her, but she had felt the need to save him anyway. Something had driven her too.
More names were on the doorways from 'Hatake Kakashi ' (scarecrow in a field?), 'Senju Tsunade ' (why did this door have aunty written in messy scribble all on it?), 'Hyuuga Hinata-hime' (Sunshine and lady, hmm), 'Haruno Sakura ' (the door looked like someone had tried to kick or punch their way inside), 'Sai' (it look like the painting of a...he winced at the crude drawing), 'Inuzuka Kiba and Akamaru' (he sneezed at the strong smell of dog hair), The door labeled 'Abruhame Shino ' was nothing more than a writhing mass of insects.
The ones labeled 'Yammano Ino ', 'Nara Shikamaru' and 'Akamechi Choji ' were next to each other and seemed linked somehow. The one labeled Shikamaru strangely looked like a sunny day with blue sky and slowly moving clouds. This door almost hypnotized him as he stopped to look at it to see if the clouds were actually moving. Answer, they were. The one called Ino was hundreds of beautiful flowers while the Choji one just made him hungry.
The one called 'Hyuuga Neji ' also seemed a turmoil of emotions, though not as bad as the Sasuke one and looking too long produced an image of an bird in an gilded cage struggling to escape.
'Rock Lee' and 'Matio Gai' were bright green and had 'bushy-brow and mini bushy-brows' written all over them.
One read 'Tenten' and was plain except for a sword motif, indicating she knew nothing of the person except a skill or love of weapons.
The door with 'Hatake Kakashi ' had writing all over it. From 'pervert' to 'sensei' to 'cyclops' (huh?) to something called 'Sharingan'.
An old door held the name 'Jiriaya' and was written on with 'pervert' again (the girl knew a LOT of apparent perverts) 'godfather', 'author', 'prophecy' with an drawn sad face beside it and 'murdered'. The colors showed her deep grief, meaning she had lost him earlier in time.
Another door said 'Umino Iruka ' and had warm colors. By the selection used to the mental colors in an beings mind he pieced together this person meant a lot to her, maybe not as much as the 'Itachi' but more than any other. The associated colors indicated a first friend. It also had writing, 'sensei', 'older brother' and strangely enough 'RAMEN!' all in big bold letters. Professor X smiled softly, she associated this man with family and comfort.
Another said 'Killer Bee And The Eight Tailed' and he frowned. Eight tailed? What did that mean?
The next two held 'Uzumaki Kushina ' and 'Namikaze Minato ' and written all over the doors was 'mom' and 'dad', in big letters 'I HAVE A MOM!' and 'I HAD A DAD!' and on the woman's was 'princess' and 'clan murdered' and the mans 'Forth Hokage' and 'trapped'. His frown deepened, trapped? Why trapped?
Next was 'Sabaku No Gaara' With 'friend,' 'One tailed' and 'family'. Next to him was two others ' Sabaku No Temari' which read 'sister,' 'proud,' 'wind mistress'. Then 'Sabaku No Kankuro'-'puppets', 'protective oniisan'.
The last door held a word he didn't know but saw on the last. Hokage, Third Hokage. Third and her father was the forth. He would have to ask Logan what the word meant.
These were all on the right, indicating friends, family, allies, so he turned to the left.
And was face to face with another door labeled 'Uchiha Sasuke'. He looked back, yes it was still there. He could only guess this person betrayed her and became an enemy, meaning this side was enemies. However THIS one said 'shadow' and 'brother'.
The next door held the name 'Orochimaru'. The writing 'snake', 'Sannin', 'kiddy-fiddler' (he frowned in concern), 'curse mark' (what?), 'body snatcher', 'redeemed' and a third time 'Sasuke' in angry scrawling showed him it was this man who had turned her friend against her.
Next was 'Mamochi Zabuza' and 'Haku'. Zabuza's said something that roughly translated as far as he knew into 'Demon Mist' or 'Mist Demon', 'assassin' and 'human after all'. Whether this meant that the assassin was killed or she was referring to his mind, he didn't know.
Next to him 'Haku' said 'Mist Weapon', 'sadness' and 'free'. He concluded that this Haku was the Mist Demon's weapon and was sad by it, or she was saddened by it and was eventually freed. By the somber colors he could only assume by death.
Next was 'Hoshigaki Kisame' with the scrawl 'shark', 'experiment' and 'Akatsuki'.
To his surprise the name 'Uchiha Itachi' was next. He frowned as he looked back at the gold door. IT read 'loyal', 'hero' and 'sacrifice' while THIS door read 'spy', 'Akatsuki' and 'criminal'. When the next five doors also said 'Akatsuki' Professor X figured it meant that this Itachi had been a spy among a group of criminals called Akatsuki. Was THAT the meaning of the loyal, hero and sacrifice on the gold door? Did the man get found out and murdered for it?
The next he noticed said 'Karin' with the words 'Uzumaki?' and 'relative?' written like the blonde had no idea if they were related or not. Looking back he remembered the same word again. His mother's door. So she had the same name and the blonde was unsure if they were related or not. Another, one of the Akatsuki, had had the same thing. So two enemies encountered the blonde wondered if were related to her.
While in THEIR world it didn't really mean anything since a lot of people had the same surname, it was possible in HERS only family, or clan, had the same.
There were a number of other doors he saw until he reached two, different to the others. One read 'Uchiha Obito' and by the written all over she was conflicted in her feelings about him, going from 'victim', 'brainwashed', and 'peace' to 'murderer', 'pain' and 'war'.
The next...black, pure black with red writing 'Uchiha Madara'. The writing was large and angry. 'HIS FAULT!' 'WAR!' 'MURDERER!' 'BASTARD!'
This showed anger, pain, grief. Somehow this man was responsible for an war, a war were people she knew or cared about died.
There were other more plain doors, then, an white one with 'Otsutsuki Kaguya'. When the Professor went to touch it, he got the same feel as the woman who had brought her too them in the first place. So this Kaguya was the one who brought her, her 'mother', The one Logan said that had claimed she hurt even killed 'her child's' important people.
He frowned, looking back.
This Kaguya claimed to be her mother, yet another was in HER eyes. Adopted? Or had the woman lied?
If so where had BOTH been during her early abusive childhood?
With no more doors labeled with names he moved on, finding doors instead with dates, feelings, events. Just as he was reaching out to touch one, a young voice spoke out behind him "who are you?"
Spinning he found the blonde behind him, but as a CHILD, not the teen of the outside world. She wore her hair in two pigtails on either side of her head, an rumpled orange and blue tracksuit strange shoes that seemed more like open toe sneakers and black finger-less gloves.
The child's eyes were an piercing blue, three marks adorning each cheek, teeth even-except the top incisors were a little longer than normal. The eyes shone in innocence but at the same time so world-weary it made the Professor realize this was her inner child.
He smiled gently "my name it Professor Charles Xavier, little one. Can I know your name?" The girl frowned at him "you're not supposed to be here, no one other than me, big me and THEM are. You have to go before they get you."
"Who are THEY, little one?"
"They used to be monsters but big me made friends with them. There used to be just one that was big me's friend, but the bad man took him away from us. Now he's back and the others came too, they protect us-big me" she motioned at a new door that read 'Juubi."
He frowned at it. Perhaps this THEY was the power protecting the girls mind. If he could convince them to allow him access to the deeper thoughts...
"It's in there?" he asked her.
"Yeah. Mostly they are one, but every now and then they separate so they can patrol and care for big me. She's sick."
Professor X frowned, did the girl mean her mind was sick as in the state of grieving she was in, or she was insane?
It didn't matter though, he had to go in there and convince who or whatever they were to let him in deeper into the mind, the only way she would ever recover her trauma would be with help from outside. Hiding in her mind was no way to move on. If Jean was right about her being an empath then she needed gentleness, caring, peace, understanding, calm. If these...THEY were really protecting her it was possible they were doing one of two things, either forcing her deeper by radiating anger at the outside and being overprotective, or being sympathetic and encouraging her to stay inside. He needed to convince them that the only way was to help her was by coming out, by interacting with others outside her mind. HE could return to help aid her as many times as she wanted.
He looked back at the child, only to find her gone. With a sigh he stepped forward and touched the door.
He found himself inside an huge meadow, the sun shinning above him and grassy fields as far as the eye-or rather in this case, minds eye-could see. To his left was what resembled the remains of an huge cage of wood, the gates open and the spiral lock open.
Laying in the middle of the field was a figure, the blonde girl, but she was not alone. Knelt beside her and silently watching was another. He had black skin, but not natural. It almost looked as if he was painted that way. The only thing he wore was a pair of dark trousers that almost seemed hidden against his skin. He was staring silently at the girl, as if waiting for her to awaken and the Professor could almost FEEL the question to him. He could not read this figure in any way, it was almost like he didn't exist except in her mind.
Was he a creation of the girl, someone to watch over her in her deep sleep? Maybe the shadow of an memory from her past?
Or was it HE who was shielding her mind-another telepath? He didn't feel like it, he had no sense of any sort of power to him, like he didn't exist. He seemed to be an creation of her fractured mind, like the child version.
Maybe this one could give him answers.
He called out to it.
To his surprise it looked back at him, yellow eyes showing near panic, as if coped doing something he shouldn't. Before the Professor could speak again it literally sank into the ground under him and disappeared.
He frowned. He didn't think THAT was some fragment. It's behavior was too wrong. An fragment wouldn't have worried about being caught. And why was it staring at the girl? Did they had another mutant to worry about or had the figure came WITH the two from her own world-like an hitchhiker. That definitely wasn't an enhanced human. It was possible there were SOME mutant or mutant-like people in her world.
There was always the possibly too that THIS figure was something left by the girls mother to guard her and he didn't want them to know about him.
The Professor hadn't sensed an second mind at all, neither had Jean, just a presence blocking them, which was obviously not this one since it was gone, fled, and the shield was still there.
"You bastard, Zetsu!" an dark animistic voice growled as something appeared in the clearing, stalking towards them "I told you to stay away from her!"
The Professor couldn't help his reaction, he gaped. Never in his life had he EVER seen something like this, especially inside someone's mind! Loping towards the girl, power oozing from every inch was an animal form. Huge it was it had golden fur over its body. Four legs and an huge head and muzzle with ten long thick-furred tails behind it.
Professor X wasn't dumb, he knew what this was. An Inari fox. Said to be celestial beings they had ten tails and gold or white fur with long high ears.
But they were just legends, stories, how did one come to exist and INSIDE the girls head?! This was NOT a creature of her imagination or splintered mind, it was real and obviously the source of the shield.
He remembered the child versions words. "They used to be monsters but big me made friends with them. There used to be just one that was big me's friend, but the bad man took him away from us. Now he's back and the others came too, they protect us-big me."
So this creature, this...Juubi used to be an negative power until somehow she 'made friends' with it. It was possible being an empath had helped there, knowing there was still good inside it. There used to be just one, but someone was able to forcefully remove the creature. However the being was later able to return, bringing 'others' with it. The girl had ALSO said that they were one most of the time, occasionally separating to 'patrol' her mind. So he was seeing the full version, not one of the parts. It was no wonder the shield was so strong at this time.
The creature stopped next to the girl. His nose twitched and he leaned down to sniff the girl, her form barely the size of his nose. After an thorough sniff he nuzzled her, trying to awaken her.
When she didn't move he raised his muzzle and sniffed the air. That growl came again "Zetsu you son of a bitch, I KNOW you were here! I told you to leave her alone!"
That's when Professor X recognized the name. It was one of the doors on the enemy side labeled 'Akatsuki'. But how did an enemy supposed to be dead get in her mind?
"Mother made me real so I can guide her, big brother" a voice echoed around them "you know this."
Big brother?
"She hasn't awoken any such ability yet and until she does, you have no use. Stay away from her, I don't trust you."
"She never will if this continues" the other said "we both may be able to heal wounds, but we can not heal the heart or mind. We were never human, we would not know how. YOU were created from the Tree Of Life to kill and destroy mother's enemies-her own sons-while I was created to do ANYTHING to free mother from the prison her sons created for her and realize her will. We were both once enemies of little sister, but have been reborn to be her protection and family, yet we can not help her now."
Professor X knew this was his opportunity and stepped forward "That is why I am here. I can help her."
The creature spun on him and growled, showing long white sharp teeth longer than his own body. "WHO ARE YOU?! HOW DID YOU GET HERE MORTAL?!"
"I brought him in" said the other voice "or rather let him in. He can aid our sister in ways we can't. She needs an human presence, we are not enough."
The giant ten tailed fox spun to look around "she doesn't NEED any human, she has ME! I was all she had when humans rejected and hurt her all her life!"
"And YOU hurt her all her life."
"IT WASN'T MY FAULT!" he roared "her father placed the wrong half of me inside her!"
"Yet she STILL was able to calm you and befriend your negative half."
Professor X frowned. Was that why her father's door said 'trapped'? Somehow he placed half this beings soul inside his daughter. That would explain Jean's sense of an powerful being. The other had said that they were 'never human,' could they have been some sort of entity, like an evolved mutant? Wait, the other-Zetsu-had said that "mother" had made them both, one to destroy her own sons and the other to do her will.
So this ten tailed-the...Juubi was created by this Kaguya to kill her sons while this Zetsu was to do her will, like some sort of clone. Now the other was remade with the purpose of teaching the girl how to use something important and guide her, the weapon to protect her and be her companion. The other had called them sister and brother, in a way the woman had made them to be a family.
The professor looked around them "can you leave here? Have you a form?"
"Mother gave me life so I could be what sister needed. I have merged my body with hers so I can be there when I am needed. I can easily leave her, but it is not my wish. Why do you ask?"
"Join me on the outside world. It would make things easier to help her if you could tell me about her, her personality, her heart..."
"THAT I can not tell you" he said "I did not know her past my observations. You would find out more to speak to brother. He has been with her since her birth in one form or another."
The Professor turned his eyes to the creature who snarled "why should I help you, human?"
"Because I'm the only one who can help her and somehow your 'mother' knew that." Professor X thought he had it figured out, the woman called the teen girl her child not because she was, rather THIS spirit inside her. She created both these beings and somewhere along the line they went from weapon and clone to her children in her mind.
"Not exactly" the voice said "she IS her daughter, rather the reincarnation of one of her sons. The other was among those mother was unable to bring back. In the end, she only had the strength for one."
So whatever the woman had done, she had killed everyone the girl cared about, including the girl's reincarnated brother. Even the girl herself and had then realized what she had done and used her power to bring the girl back, merging the ten tailed with her to keep her alive. Somehow this was SUPPOSED TO gift her with abilities only this Zetsu could teach her to use. However while she refused to leave her mind there was no chance of that.
"I can help her, ease her through her loss and trauma and teach her to live again. I have many students here her own age who know what it's like to be treated like a freak and whom will willingly be friends with her. They will accept her and help her learn."
"Human children have never been accepting of her before" the giant fox growled "what makes you think YOURS will be different?"
"For an start, my students each have been hurt in the past by others, they KNOW what it feels like to be judged for something they have no control over or what they are. They would not do that to another."
The fox snorted "we've come to learn that is nothing to stop them."
"Secondly I will explain the situation, they will understand. They listen to me."
"Are you so sure of yourself" the fox snorted.
"Third is every one of us here is NOT human ourselves."
The fox looked down at him, eyes narrowed "what do you mean?"
"My students and the teachers here are all mutants. We are the next evolution of human life, gifted with abilities beyond humans. The fact I am here surely proves it to you. I am an telepath, one of the strongest minds in this world. Each of my students and their teachers are gifted with a or various abilities that set them apart from others. Because of this the humans of this world fear us. There are SOME mutants out there who do not care who they hurt or what damage they do to others, but us here at Xaviers School For Gifted Youngsters believe in living together in harmony with them."
"You can not live among humans in peace as one of them, they already proved it when they hurt her heart and body."
"What about her Precious People, those who cared for her and she cared back?"
"She was just a weapon to them, a way to make ME obey."
"No brother" the voice said "you know that is not true. In the end, when she saved the village from Pain, they loved and cared for her. She did just what she wanted, to prove to them she was not a monster but an person, and ninja of Kohonagakure."
The professor blinked, ninja? Kohonagakure?
The creature blinked then sighed heavily as he looked at him "I will give you ONE chance. If you can prove you can help her and protect her, I will allow you all to live. If anyone tries to hurt her I will wipe the mortals from this world."
