Charity had not seen Rachel for months and knew that if this happened, she was to come here.  She was only a little girl but she remembered where this place was and entered.  Quickly she walked to the Office and knocked on the door. In her hands was a small owl statue.  She wore a long shirt, kid jeans, her jacket and backpack to cover her wings.  She was nervous, unsure of what would happen now that she was lone again.  Would she make friends here?  Would anyone like her?  er  parents told hr she was a freak, abandoned her at 6 to live on the streets.  Rachel was the first mutant she met, the first kind face.  The first person to welcome her to  home.  And now, Rachel was gone.  She sighed and knocked again, waiting for an answer.  She took in a deep breath and pet the owl statue bringing it to life.  It hooted and stretched its wings.

"Anyone there?"

Loika was in the office reading some files whenshe heard a small knock on the door. She put the files away and locked the cabinet before opening the door. She didnt see anybody. She looked down and there was a girl a little bigger than her own girl. She smiled at her. Hopefully she didnt scare the poor girl. Her canines were longer than the normal. They almost looked a little vampy. "Well hello there little one, welcome to xaviers."She kneeled down to the girl's level. "Im loika. Do you need some help?"

(sorry for delay i was hospitalized) 


"Hi miss...  Um, I was told to come here if Miss Rachel Mason didn't come back home so I won't be on the streets anymore.  My mommy and daddy left me to live on the streets when I was 6 and Miss Rachel found me when I was 8, but she's been gone for two months and I have no where to go and I don't wanna be on the streets.... Can I stay here?"  She asked and looked down.  Charity was nervous, her wings shuddered behind her jacket and made her backpack shake a little.  The owl in her hand felt the nerves and suddenly took flight only to fall from its own weight of the stone.  She gasped and tried to catch it but the statue hit the floor and shattered.

"I'm sorry! I didn't mean to bring it to life!"

Loika calmly picked up the pieces of the owl. No use crying over spilled owl. " Of course you can stay, its no problem. We have plenty of rooms here. And dont worry about that. Nothing got hurt and nothing go destroyed. Its fine, these things happen. I cant speak for Rachel but im sure wherever she is its for a good reason. "

She put the pieces of the owl on the desk. " Are you hungry? We can get you set up in a room first if you want. I dont live here. I live in a cabin in the woods but there will always be a professor here if you need them."

Charity watched Loika pick up the pieces and frowned, she hated when they broke.  As she listened and smiled slightly. "Can I let my wings out?"  She asked, and removed her backpack as she said it. 

"I'd like to put my things away and then can I eat Miss?" She asked with polite manners.  Charity knew better than to be rude.  She opened her backpack and took out a cat statue and placed it on the floor, pressed on it gently and the statue came to life, meowing and began to walk around on its own.  Charity giggled as it rubbed against Loika and then she picked it up.

"Do you wanna see my wings?"

Loika frowned at the cat. She really didnt like them. She shrugged though and stood up straight. "You can if thats what you want to do. If you feel comfortable" she opened the door wider for the both of them. "alright lets get you settled then."

Charity smiled wide like a child being offered ice scream and took off the jacket and stretched out beautiful, long, white, feathered wings.  They were as tall as the little girl.  She grabbed her belongings and followed.

"You are very nice Miss, and very pretty.  Are there a lot of kids my age here?"

She led the way to the bedrooms. She noticed the wings but said nothing. She didnt want the girl to feel uncomfortable by anything said. "I dunno about all that jazz. As an older student and an occational teacher ive been told i can be pretty ster."She winked at thr girl. "Beauty is skin deep kid. Especially when you turn into a big wolf. Ok here we are....and no. Theres only one other child. My daughter. She lives with me and doesnt really like other children."She opened a bedroom door for her so that she could look inside.

Jean had finished in the medical wing and was heading to check on something with Xavier when she sensed Loika and Charity. Heading in that direction, as it took her that way anyways her current path, she stopped and looked at them. "Is everything alright Loika?" She asked with a kind smile. Looking down at the little girl. Her eyes checking her over for any signs of ailment or injury. Surface level she was spotting none at the surface level. She looked to Loika. "Can I do anything to help you out Loika?" She asked with a warm smile towards the young woman.

Charity nodded as she was given the tour but frowned at hearing that no other kids were her age except Loika's daughter who didn't like kids.  She sighed, her wings stretched out wide, at least 4 feet across, and a feather fell.

She was about to say something when a new face arrived.  At first Charity was going to turn and hide behind Loika, but she felt that she had to be brave and forced a friendly smile, folded her wings in and held a hand out to Jean.  "Hi miss.  I'm Charity.  I'm brand new here.  Miss Loika is giving me a tour.  I asked if there were kids my age to play with but she said no."  She sighed again and picked up her statue cat that was walking besides them.  She pressed her hand on its head and suddenly it returned to its normal position and became lifeless.

Loika frowned at jean. "I think i can handle a child jean. No help needed."She found it irritating that she had been here for two years and the older teachers still treated her like she was a child.

She nodded towards the room as she turned back towards it for the little girl."You can put your things in there, then we can grab something to eat."

Jean looked at Loika. "I know you can. I have no doubts in your ability to handle any situation that comes your way." She gave an apologetic loo. "I'm sorry for causing you to think I doubted you but I have no thoughts at all that you can't handle this or any other situations that come your way Loika. On the contrary, I have complete faith in your abilities. The others do as well I'm sure of this. Keep up the good work." She said with a kind and warm smile.

She felt really bad that she gave Loika a false impression. She wasn't even sure why Loika seemed to instantly jump to that. I'm really sorry that the older professors seem to be giving you less credit than you deserve. That wasn't my intentions at all. Looking at Charity she smiled warmly. "Well you are in really good hands then Charity. My name is Jean Grey. It is nice to meet you. I'll leave you two be. I'm sorry to have interrupted you both. Loika don't let the other teachers get you down. You're really doing a great job." She smiled warmly to both and continued on to what she had been originally doing.

Even if she was in her head berating herself for somehow causing Loika to jump to a completely inaccurate negative conclusion. It made her wonder what the other teachers had done that someone asking something in general gave that sort of reaction. She doubted it came from Logan. Had to have been Scott or some of the others.

Charity nodded at Loika, sensing tension, but nodded to Jean when introduced.  "Nice to meet you Miss Grey."  And then she watched the woman leave them before she quickly jumped up, stretched her little wings and flew into her room but landed horrible, crashing into her bed instead of next to it as intended.  

Clearly she wasn't a great flyer.  She placed her jacket down along with her back pack.  She quickly opened the back pack and took out three statues and the cat statue and placed them around her bed like guards.  Once she was satisfied with how it looked she pulled out a few outfits, placed them on the bed to be sorted later.  She didn't have much, but she figured maybe someone would help me get more.  She left most of it t Rachel's since she didn't have anything bigger then her backpack.

She walked out of the room this time and took Loika's hand instinctively and smiled.  "I'm hungry, what are we going to eat Miss Loika?"

Loika muttered to herself "Is there anyone in this house that doesnt have access to my head?" She jumped when she heard the girl fall. She could have rushed to help her but as a mother she had learned that unless a child really hurt themself it was best to let them pick themself up.

She noticed how different the girl was to mack. Mack was independent and stoic. Not girly at all. This girl was at least a little girly and she had no problem showing her emotions.

She held the girl's hand. Loika's natural body temp was higher like that of a wolf. She would always appear warmer to people. She led the way to the kitchen. "We have a well stocked kitchen here. Whats your favorite food?"

Charity walked with Loika, every so often, jumping up and flying a little before landing until they got to the kitchen.  She sighed, and looked down embarrassed for a moment.  "I don't really have a favorite.  Before my mommy called me a freak an left me alone I love mac and cheese but I never want it again... I used to eat what I could get from the garbage and Miss Rachel fed me fast food, so... I guess anything you wanna make me I'll try Miss Loika."  She smiled again and flew over to a seat, this time landing a bit better and sat down.  She sighed and folded her wings in and looked at the older woman.

"I also like water, it's the only thing I've really drank except for this yummy brown sod thing Miss Rachel used to give me.  It came in orang too.  I liked that a lot."

Loika looked through the cabinets while the girl sat down. "i actually dont eat human food. I turn into a wolf and hunt. Ill try my best though."

She dug through the cabinets until she found some chicken and stars. She then got some cheese , bread, and butter out of the fridge. She started the soup on the stove then buttered two pieces of bread, put cheese between them, and put it in a skillet. She was making grilled cheese and soup. " My daughter loves grilled cheese and soup on cold days."

Charity watched Loika's movements and listened.  She giggled when the lady said she hunted as a wolf, and her smile grew with the giggle.  She watched what happened next and kept her smile on her face.

"I would love to try it Miss."  Charity said and nodded.  She would eat anything given to her.  Living on the streets for two long years made her value every meal.  "Also, when you said before if there was anyone not in your head, I'm not.  I hope that helps."  She said innocently and swung her feet back and forth while waiting.  "Do you have the orange colored soda?"

She stirred the soup and turned over the grilled cheese when one side had turned golden brown."There are some telepaths at the school including my daughter. Its not unusual to hear voices in your head here.Just call me loika. Thats fine."

She shook her head. "We just ran out. We have diet coke, milk, tea, and water. Glasses are in that cabinet and drinks are in the fridge."She pointed to each place with the spatula.

Charity nodded, "Miss Rachel could move things with her mind. and okay Miss... I mean Loika.  Sorry, I was told it was polite to call others that are older with miss and mister.  But I'll call you by your name without the miss.  And I've never had any of those but the water, So I'll try what ever you want to give me except the deit cause I'm not fat."  She giggled again and looked around to see if anything in the kitchen was a statue to make alive.  

She loved to make statues come to life and she spotted a small frog on on the window and pressed.  Suddenly it ribbited and hopped around causing her the laugh very loudly. "I found a statue frog.  Look at it go!"

She moved a few dirty plates from other students out of the way of the frog right before it landed. "Just dont change any of the statues at the school. Most of them are very old and very valuable."

She put the dishes in the sink and returned to the stove. She put the grilled cheese on a plate and the soup in a bowl. She put an ice cube in the bowl to cool the soup and set those in front of her. She poured her a glass of milk and put that down for her as well.

Charity nodded and grabbed the frog changing it back to normal and put it back.  "Don't worry Loika, when the statues change they move on their own but when I put them back to normal they go back to where they were and to their position.  None ever break unless they fly like my owl did... poor owly."  She said with a sorrow in her voice at the end but walked back to the table and sat down at the meal Loika made for her and a smile grew on her face from ear to ear.

"This looks amazing Mi... Loika!  I can't wait to try it all!"  She said and began to eat very rapidly on the grilled cheese like she had not eaten in days.  She drank the milk, but went slow on the soup, for it was hot.  "This is so good!!! What's this white drink?"

"Its milk. Its very good for you and it helps you build strong bones." She cleaned up the mess from other students. She didnt even live here anymore yet it felt like she was still cleaning up messes alot. Same as at home. She sat on the counter and looked out the window while the girl ate. She sat thinking about all the fighting going on and about her own family that she rarely saw.

Charity nodded and finished her grilled cheese within minutes.  She took her time with the soup before it had cooled enough for her to drink it from the bowl instead of a spoon.  The milk was finished as well and soon she let out a tiny but loud bletch and giggled.

"Excuse me."  She said as she was taught back when she was with her mommy and daddy.  She looked over to Loika and turned her body around, stretched her arms and wings at the same time and smiled brighter.  "All done mi- Loika.  It was very yummy.  I really enjoyed the grilled cheese."
