章 110: Chapter 109
Jean gulped as she took the headband and looked at me, "w-will this work?"
I shrugged, "no clue, but let's see if it does," I grabbed her tin hat and pulled it off.
Jean's eyes squeezed shut in pain before she immediately put the headband on and slowly the tension in her head let up.
"I-I think it's working," she said finally.
We all let loose a sigh of relief.
"I don't believe it, how can she be a mutant? She seems so...normal?" Liz asked.
I shrugged, "anyone can be a mutant Liz, even you."
Liz blinked, "what? Seriously?!"
"Yeah, inside some people's body is something called the X-Gene, it grants them their mutant powers. Usually people get mutated around puberty, activation these powers," I groaned, "it really is a fascinating study. The human race is evolving in such an amazing way."
"Damn," Felicia whistled turning at Jean and narrowing her eyes, "don't even think about reading my mind."
Jean gulped, "I-I won't! I don't even know how."
"Yeah, we probably need to do something about that," I said with a sigh.
"What? What do you mean?" MJ asked.
"Jean needs to learn how to control her powers," I told them "if not she could end up in big trouble. We know next to nothing about her powers, they could eventually grow so powerful the device I made won't be able to stop them anymore."
Jean gulped, her hands touching the band on her head, "you think that can happen?"
"It's possible," I nodded, "you need to learn control...hm, grab your things, I know just the place."
The girls looked uncertain, it took me a long time to convince Jean this had to happen before she finally agreed. Liz was scared, but she refused to look afraid, MJ agreed to come immediately and Felicia didn't want to leave me alone with three beautiful girls. It's so cute the way she gets so jealous.
We made our way to the abandoned Train Yard. I pushed the doors opened as we all walked in.
"Eh, I hate this place, by far the worse place I have ever made out in," Liz grumbled.
"Agreed," MJ glared as she remembered the time Harry took her here and try to force a kiss out of her. I don't know what would have happened if I didn't show up when I did, I'm just glad I did.
"Alright, let's see," I looked around spotting an empty tin can in the corner, "perfect." I grabbed the can and put it in the center of the room, "Jean, stand in front, guys, you might want to step away."
The girls did so as Jean and I stood before the can. "You want me to move it? W-with my mind?" Jean gulped.
"Yeah, I do."
"I-I don't know, I don't think I can-"
"-Yes, you can," I told her with a reassuring smile, "I know you can."
"But the voices-"
"-Won't bother you if you don't let it. Your brain is like a muscles you control it, not the other way around...I think. Meh, you should be good, just ah...if you read my mind, just let me explain a few things before you go crazy okay?"
Jean blinked, "what?"
"We all have secrets Jean," I shrugged.
Jean gulped, "o-okay, I'll try," she touched the head band and slowly took it off, wincing from the suddenly influx of voices.
I couldn't help it, I immediately began to think about what Jean would become, the Phoenix. Jean looked at me with a confused look, "what was that?"
"I-I can explain….what did you read?"
"I...nothing," she replied, "it was too jumbled for me to understand."
I blinked, "what?" I thought to myself, 'Jean you're so freaking hot!'
Immediately Jean began to blush, "y-you said I'm hot."
I nodded, "yeah," I now narrowed my eyes, 'Jean, you will become the Phoenix when you grow.'
"I didn't understand that," she blinked, "it felt like static."
She can't read my brain when it comes to facts or the future?! Holy shit! I need to experiment! "Alright Jean, focus on my thoughts once more okay? Tell me what you can read," I closed my eyes, 'SHIELD is HYDRA, Tony and Steve will cause a civil war, I'm pretty sure I'm going to become an Avenger at some point'.
"Ah, you said something about being an Avenger?" she replied, "I couldn't make out the rest."
So she could only read my thoughts and guesses but not any knowledge of my future? This...this was the act of the person who brought me here, whoever or whatever they were. "Okay...we can deal with that later Jean, for now let's focus on controlling your powers."
She nodded, "right."
I immediately focused on the task at hand and nothing else, not letting myself think about anything else. "Focus on me Jean, focus on the sound of my voice, drown everything else out."
She squinted, "I-I can't!"
"Yes, you can!" I raised my voice a little, "listen to my voice. Imagine your powers like a giant speaker, all those voices being amplified into you head. Imagine a giant volume dial set of full. Imagine all the voices coming out of it, and now, I want you to turn the volume down."
Jean's eyes flickered open as she focused, I remembered seeing a TV show called Legion, where the son of Charles Xavier had trouble with voices in his head, just like Jean. I remembered how he learnt to control his powers, hopeful Jean can do that same.
She looked like she was struggling some more, she squeezed her eyes shut, "it's going down."
"Good Jean, keep it up, tune it all out, slowly, until you can't hear them anymore."
A minute later she opened her eyes and looked at me, "t-they're gone!"
I grinned, "good job, now keep that mental image in your head, if they ever come back you can deal with them on your own."
"Holy shit, did you see that?" MJ whispered.
"How did he know how to do that?" Liz asked suspiciously.
"I have no idea," Felicia glared.
"Alright Jean, I want you to focus, focus on the tin can before you. You think that you can't move it, but you can. Your mind is an amazing thing, and you can do it if you try."
