章 4: Nicoll
My name is Nicoll Cross, since I had memory, I never met my parents, at the beginning I lived in an orphanage, I never liked that place, every day they sent me to ask for alms to the streets, sometimes I did small jobs for a little money, which was taken from me when I returned to the orphanage.
if i did not give them a certain daily quota, I don't have right to eat and even if i did, he would always have to give a share to the older children, so he generally could not eat.
one day I decided to escape from that terrible place I took my things and escaped, I wandered the streets for a long time, on the street I learned my first "pickpocket" job that helped me survive until I was 9 years old.
but one day, after having stolen Enough to eat, I was taking a break in the park and there I saw a family having a picnic, at that moment I felt sadness and resentment against my parents for abandoning me, but above all I felt jealous, suddenly the father noticed me, he looked at me for A moment later I take a sandwich and offer it to me, I was about to refuse it when my stomach growled, then he called me and asked me to join them, while we ate I take the chance to take your money and things of value without them noticing , after getting up I was about to leave when I started feeling guilty, they invited me for food and in return I had taken their things, so I stopped, turned around and handed him his things, then prepared to run away when the man stopped me by the wrist and prevented me from walking away, looked at me and said "don't be scared, I don't mean to hurt you, I'm just curious, why did you return the things you had taken, why did you take the risk to being captured?" he asked me
"Because I think it's not right, I mean I'm a thief but I can't steal from people who help me, I don't want to steal from people who've been good to me," I said.
he looked at me for a moment, then took me to a bank and He sat down, pointed to the place next to me indicating that he would sit me down, "Tell me your story," he said, doubt for a moment, but in the end I agreed.
after a long talk, he introduced himself as Mr. Stephan Cross, he told me that if he was willing he would adopt me in return he would have to be completely loyal to his family, that's how he came to call me Nicoll Cross after having joined his family I received training and education in a lot of specialisation areas, all to become a pillar of his family.
So time passed and three years ago Mr. Stephan died during an explosion, I am sure there is more than can be seen.
when he dies, his only son, young master Ethan was the only survivor, and to keep him saved I had to avoid investigating the matter.
Over the years the young teacher has become very lonely, to the degree of not leaving the command, this makes me wonder, how can I do to alleviate his sadness, I feel that I have failed to my previous master, I don't be able to do happy to his son
Today was the tenth birthday of the young teacher, I had prepared a delicious cake and planned to take him to the amusement park, however when I went to look for him in his room I did not find him I started looking for him throughout the mansion and finally found him in the dining room It seemed that he was very hungry because he had decorated a lot of food and did not plan to stop soon.
"Young master" I called him.
He seemed distracted, I thought he was focused on food but when I saw it well, I realized that it was not that, it seemed that he was talking to someone else but did not understand how or with whom.
After a while he seemed to have finished his talk and got into deep thoughts, seemed to reflect on something, as if something worried him, then I saw him calm down as if he was planning great things.
I was beginning to worry when I noticed his expression, almost always that he does will end in big trouble for me.
while trying to find out what he was trying to do and how to avoid it, I noticed another expression, this was definitely a new one, it seemed more mature but at the same time playful, and if we add that stupid smile that hung from his face, he was definitely thinking something perverted, as soon as I realized that I started to get angry,
'Since when does this child have perverted thoughts?' I thought, this was definitely not good, besides what happens with this great appetite, the more I thought the more doubts I had.
Then the young master came out of his reverie, turned around and started walking, when he saw me, he started to panicked and when he looked at my eyes I realized that the young master was going through multiple emotions, there was doubt, fear, guilt , sadness, love, but above all, resolution.
Still, he had to give me many explanations and he knew it.
"Happy birthday, young master," I said, "because today was his tenth birthday. I had planned a big celebration, but due to his current circumstances I think everything will have to wait." I started with a neutral tone and little by little I let out a danger tone "tell me young master, do you want to explain it here or prefers to go to a more private place?"
The young teacher looked scared, then took a deep breath and told me to follow him in his father's study.
* pov Ethan *
After entering my father's studio, Nicoll sat behind the desk and indicated that I would sit in front of her, the she kept silent waiting for my explanation.
"Aunt Nicoll" I said trying to lighten the atmosphere "I know you have many doubts, but to be honest I have them too, while I explaining things I ask you not to interrupt me and let me finish, no matter how unbelievable it seems" I said trying to prepare her for what I would reveal next
"You see, this morning when I woke up a terrible pain invaded me, after which a telepath who called himself Charles Xavier called me ..."
After a while I finished explaining my situation and my plans to Aunt Nicoll I told her that in the morning my gene x had been activated that according to the preliminary tests I had done
I had discovered that I could create a symbiotic biomass that allowed me to accomplish things about humans, after talking about my most basic skills I looked into her eyes but she didn't seem surprised so continue.
I explained that Professor Xavier had contacted me and told me that he was a mutant and invited me to join his school to learn to control my powers.
I also told her that we had made an appointment next week and asked her to come with me in case of problems.
After that I explained her my plans to meet Norman Osborne, but immediately she forbade me, said that Norman was not trustworthy, so I had to tell her that I would only review the current situation of the company and the plans In the future I had also told her that I wanted to meet Dr. Otto Octavius, Dr. Curt Connors and an electrical engineer named Maxwell Dillon, she also made me promise that he would take her with me at all times, I also told her that I planned to use a laboratory in the building Baxter to analyze my powers and my body to make sure they had no harmful repercussions for me.
She asked me why I did not praise a laboratory in Oscorp since they were better equipped to which I replied that I did not trust in Norman so to keep the results of my research safe, I would use the Baxter building, I also wanted to visit my father's laboratory Finally, I told her that I would pay a visit to Stark Industries, to acquire Tony's technology, I wanted to upgrade the mansion like a site-of-high-technology and make it an impenetrable fort, I also wanted to dig a huge basement that works as a nuclear shelter, laboratory, area of training and operations base for my future plans.
After we finished our conversation, Aunt Nicoll looked at me deeply what really scared me, so I did my best imitation of the famous "puppy face" to which she responded with a wide smile, she stood up and told me
"So you've finally decided to get out of your depreciation eh * sighed * it seems you're already being a child dependent on your aunt Nicoll, very well master, leave it to me, I think it's time for the world to know again that we are capable of the Cross family "then turned around and left.
When I saw her leave, I could see a devil smile on her lips, it seems that I did the right thing by not being stuck.
"Sigh * I think Aunt Nicoll is right, enough time has passed to regret the death of my parents, it's time to take the next step."
