Chapter 1 POWER MANIFESTO

🌊 šŸ”„ CHAPTER 01 šŸ”„šŸŒŠ

Life, they say, is a mystery.

Life they say, would be dull indeed without all the mystery around.

What would be left to strive for if everything were know.

The mystery of life isn't a problem to solve but a reality to experience.

I always had this thinking that I was a random kid, a kid like others, totally no difference from other teenagers apart from the fact that our personalities are different.

I've always wanted to find out who I truly am.

Thinking about it is more like a burden in my heart.

But the day I came to find out who I truly am, what I am truly made of; but if I'd know that finding out would start a war, a war which made me have to choose between my head and my heart, I would have stayed in all through that day.

If I had known that one disobedience changed my life drastically for the worst, oh actually for the best.

" Mom!!" Alvara called running down the stairs.

Putting on a forest green loose and baggy t-shirt with a black baggy sweatpants, coupled with a flat bill cap and a flat slip-on, she rocked a great tomboy outfit.

Having a square defined face with a deep set down turn eye colored sea blue and a faux hawk hair colored white, she is the definition of true beauty.

" Mom" She called again on getting to kitchen.

She hugged her mom, Emily, from the back, who was busy rounding off breakfast.

She placed a kiss on her cheek, making Emily chuckle.

" My princess is awake" Emily said and Alvara's face squeezed up in a deep frown.

Breaking the hug, she rolled her eyes.

" Mom, I'm literally 18 now not 8. You can stop calling me' princess' any day soon, it's quite embarrassing" She groaned.

" You might be 18 but still my princess" Emily replied.

" Whatever Mom. There's definitely no point trying to convince you" Alvara replied in a surrender, heading to the dinning table.

Soon Emily served her some freshly cooked hot poteo morning glory muffins.

Without blinking twice Alvara grabbed the muffins and munched on them.

" You might as well take it easy before you end up meeting your grandma wherever she is" Emily teased.

" Oh moma, you're the best" Alvara moaned with a mouthful, her eyes closed.

She was enjoying every bit of the muffin, they were so soft and puffy.

Soon she was done and ready to dash out.

" Alvara wait" Emily's voice halted her.

She groaned silently before turning.

Yeah, she knows what she's in for now, some 30mins lecture from her mom.

She walked back to the dinning and sat.

Bringing out a note book and a pen, she gave Emily a ' may your lectures begin' look.

" Listen, I'm really serious about what I want to say now, Alvara, it's no joke" Emily said sternly.

" And I'm all ears" Alvara replied sarcastically.

" This is literally your 5th school since we moved in here. And I don't think I'm gonna send you to another one if you eventually get expelled this time around so be on your best behavior" Emily said and Alvara hummed and stood on her feet, ready to move.

" Not so fast young lady, I ain't done yet" Emily frowned and Alvara groaned even more loudly.

" Seriously Mom. I've heard you already. You tell me the same thing everyday. I promise to be one my best behavior; no fisticuffs with my classmate but...

" They better be of their best behavior, so chill momma" Alvara said.

" I'm just worried....

" You don't have to be Mom, I won't get into a fight. I cross my heart and hope to spike" Alvara said and Emily's face squeezed up.

" Hope to spike?" She thought trying to understand what Alvara meant until it drawn to her , she was lying.

" You're lying, right?" Emily protested.

" Fine Mom, whatevs. I'll be on my way, bye" Alvara replied and dashed out after placing a peck on Emily's cheek.

Emily let out a sigh.

" She just can't kill me, can she?" She muttered.

• *. *. *

" Dad" Hudson groaned angrily.

" It is just a club Dad, it's not as if I'm running away. It's no big deal" He added.

" Of course it is a big deal. You know club this days are dangerous" Bernard, Hudson's father said.

" Dad, I'm 19 for Christ sake, I'm no kid anymore" Hudson half yelled.

" Besides, it's not as if I'm going there to take drugs or get drunk. I just wanna hangout" He tried explaining.

" Son....." Bernard called gently.

" Dad, I just wanna do what other kids are doing, like once in a while instead of locking myself up all day doing nothing, it's totally boring" Hudson grunted.

" I know but what about....you know who I'm talking about" Bernard said, worry displayed visibly on his face.

" Don't worry about them dad, I ain't scared of them anymore" Hudson assured, understanding what Bernard was referring to.

" I'm now a man, a grown up. I wanna show them that I'm not the same gullible Hudson they know years back, the chicken who they think they can bully. I'm ready for them, anytime" He assured with confidence.

Bernard sighed sadly as his heart still object on Hudson attending the club but he didn't want him to feel like he is depriving him of anything.

" Fine, if you say so" He gave in and Hudson beamed a bit.

Without uttering another word, he dashed out.

Hudson is a tall and slim teenager with dark brown hair, brown eyes and a light complexion.

Unlike Alvara, Hudson is a sensitive teenager and a bit if a loner, who keeps himself locked up in his room rather than associating with people.

His slim build makes him an easy target for bullies but this time around he wasn't shying away anymore.

Making up his mind to face whatever is in-store, he headed to the club.

• *. *

Meanwhile, Alvara also headed to the same club.

She sneaked out without informing her mom.

Just like Hudson, Alvara prefers staying alone than having a bunch of trouble called friends.

Stepping into the club, the music buzzing loud from the speaker hit her ear.

Looking around, she could see teenagers swinging their butt and waist to the beat of the music, others getting themselves drunk and smoking. Other bunch of student making out at the other extreme.

A faint smile creep up her lips as she made her way to the counter.

She hit her hand slightly on the counter but loud enough for the bartender to raise a brow at her.

" One shot of Brandy" Alvara said, sitting down.

On the other hand, Hudson headed to the counter to grab a drink too when he couldn't bear how disgusting the club felt to him.

This is his first time of entering a club and yet he wasn't pleased a bit.

" One bottle of vodka" He said to the bartender, looking around to see whether he could see anything interesting.

The bartender passed him his order and he grabbed it, taking a gulp.

His eyes drifted to a guy and a girl kissing like they would devour each other soon and he couldn't help but scoff.

" They got no shame do they?" He thought as his eyes shifted to another group of teenagers puffing smokes of cigarettes to the air.

He was still staring at them when 3 figure appeared before him.

Looking up and seeing the last people he wanted to cross part with, Hudson grunted under his breath.

" Oh, look who we have here. Isn't it the baby" One of the guys mocked.

" Finally he decided to come check out the club, huh?" Another said, placing his palm on Hudson's shoulder, which he shrugged off, glaring angrily at him.

" Listen baby, since you're here already, how about you join us" The third said.

" Some drugs to make you high" He added, bringing out a of wrapped cocaine and portrayed it before Hudson.

Hudson glared at the cocaine, then back to the guy.

" I am not interested" He replied simply.

" Com'on it's just one stick of it, it will do you no harm" The first boy said.

" Oh else if...you're still a chicken" The second mocked and they all bursted into laughter.

Hudson tightened his fist, his blood boiling.

He kept the bottle of vodka on the counter and left, heading to the bathroom.

Alvara was busy enjoying the Brandy when a hand slip through her back, grabbing her stomach.

A hot breath hit her neck and she jerked up.

She turned and saw a black haired boy before her and she totally don't know who he is.

The guy approached gently, a smirk plastered on his face.

Alvara stood where she was, a single trace of fear not seen on her face.

The guy got closer and lowered his face and Alvara pinched her nose close as the scent of alcohol and cigarette filled her nose.

" Come on baby, we can enjoy ourselves till whenever you want" The guy whispered and Alvara scoffed angrily.

" I can't wait to have my d**k inside your pu......

Alvara didn't let him finish the word and she sent him a hard punch sending the guy rolling to the floor

The guy made to stand up as he spit out some blood but Alvara pinned him back to the ground with her leg on top of his chest.

She grabbed her shot of Brandy and slowly let it pour directly into the guys eyes.

The guy yelled and groaned in pain as his eyes turned bloody red.

" Next time you see a girl in a baggy pant, avoid her" Alvara spat before heading to the bathroom.

Unknown to her, 3 dudes trailed behind her.

After calming her nerves down, she twisted the door open and was about stepping out when a hand pushed her back inside, making her fall with her butt.

" What the.." She groaned and looked up.

Standing before her was 3 muscular built dudes, each with an evil grin on his face.

Alvara stood on her feet, glaring angrily at them.

They stroke their palms together, approaching.

" Since you don't wanna enjoy one d**k, how about 3, huh?" One of them grinned.

Alvara stepped back slowly and at the same time scanning to see if there are any useful weapons around.

She saw a rod lying on the floor and she smirked inwardly.

Grabbing the rod, she sent a hit to one of the dude who advanced towards her, sending him rolling to the floor.

She adjusted the rod on her hand, ready to attack any minute.

Meanwhile, Hudson was facing the same problem as Alvara.

The same boys from earlier circled him in the restroom, each with a grin on their faces.

" For the umpteenth time, what the fuck do you guys want from me?" Hudson yelled angrily at them.

" Oh, looks like the baby finally gathered the courage to speak up, huh?" One of them mocked.

" Listen dickhead, don't think because you're 19 means you're no longer the weakling we all know. You're still the gullible Hudson, you're nothing but a chicken,a wassock, a popsicle, you're.......

" Enough!!!" Hudson roared angrily at them and the ground shook violently.

He couldn't contain the mockery anymore.

His anger has already reached its peak and he couldn't control it.

Inside, he felt a new rush of power, it was as if a specific force ran through his whole body, coupled with the anger in him, he felt hot heat run down him.

He shot his eyes close and tightened his fist and immediately the walls of the restroom started cracking as the ground shook violently.

" What's going on?" The three bullies asked in fear.

Meanwhile the same thing was happening to Alvara.

When she couldn't contain the 3 dudes trying to force themselves on her, her anger reached its peak and she felt the same rush of power run through her.

Everywhere shook as the walls of the restroom started cracking.

Soon the walls of the whole building started cracking as the ceiling started falling.

A loud scream covered the whole building as everyone started evacuating, a great havoc was created as everyone was trying to run for his or her life.

Unfortunately the broken ceiling fell on most of them, crushing their head to pieces.

" Stay....away.....from...me!!" Alvara and Hudson yelled at the same time and the wave which followed their scream sent the bullies flying and crashing to the wall.

The pipe of the bathroom bursted and water started flowing uncontrollably.

The ground cracked and swallowed most of the people and everything made of glass; the windows, the bottles all shattered to pieces and pinned most people to the wall.

Alvara and Hudson didn't understand what was happening and they couldn't control themselves either.

Soon the whole building collapsed burying most people.

The rush of power and anger which ran through Hudson and Alvara left them and they both slumped to the floor and......black out.........

Chapter 2 ANOTHER POWER DISCOVERED

šŸŒŠšŸ”„ CHAPTER 02 šŸ”„šŸŒŠ

Hudson and Alvara slowly opened their eyes.

Looking around, Alvara couldn't recognize where she was but Hudson on the other hand, knew where they were.

" You're awake" A thick muscular said and they both looked over to where the voice came from.

Standing there was a man with a curled black hair and a chiseled angular face, resting his back on the wall, his hand folded before his chest and leg crossed.

" Dad" Hudson called jerking up from the bed.

" Dad?" Alvara muttered in disbelief.

" Ok, wait a minute. Who are the both of you and why am I here? What am I doing in the same bed with this guy and who brought me here?" Alvara asked all at once.

" Calm down young lady, I don't bite. One question at a time" Bernard replied, his hand raised up in a surrender.

" Fine, the first question; Who are the both of you?" Alvara asked.

" Let's just say, we're strangers and I saved your life" Bernard replied plainly.

" Saved my life, from what?" Alvara asked.

" Don't you remember what happened after you got to the club yesterday?" Bernard asked.

Hudson and Alvara shot their eyes close and everything came flooding, starting from when they entered the club and what they encounter, their outburst of rage and they both flung their eyes open, panting heavily.

" It's all over the news. The building collapse and everyone present......died" Bernard said.

The two teenagers turned to him, their lips parted in shock.

" The CCTV caught the both of you but I was able to drive you guys out before the cops came" Bernard added.

" Dad" Hudson called faintly as tears pricked his eyes.

" We...killed...everybody" Alvara mounted, staring blankly at space.

Guilt filled their hearts.

" How did it happen....I mean, how is it even possible?" Hudson asked.

Bernard let out a sad sigh. He knew exactly what happened to the both of them.

" Tell me Hudson, what happened?" He asked.

" I don't know dad. When those boys were giving me a hard time, I didn't know how it happened but I felt a rush of anger and power through and....and....that happened?" Hudson tried explaining but the last sentence came out as a question.

" Same for me, that rush of rage and power made me lost it" Alvara said.

" Listen to what I want to tell you both now but first promise you won't be shocked" Bernard said and the two shot him a suspicious look.

" We're all ears" They both said.

" Am sorry to say this but the both of you are.......

The two stared patiently at him, waiting to hear the last word.

" The both of you are.........MUTANTS" Bernard finally let the word roll off his tongue.

" What?!!" The two exclaimed in shock, having different facial expressions.

Hudson was shocked with the mention of mutants but Alvara was confused. She haven't heard of the word before.

" We're mutants?" Hudson asked not wanting to believe what his father just said.

" Ok, sorry but this young lady here is totally lost" Alvara said.

" What is mutant?" She asked with a raised eyebrow and Hudson glared at her in disbelief.

" We're in the 21st century and you don't know who mutants are, seriously?" He asked.

" Oh sorry if it is a shock to you. You might as well start explaining instead of asking some stupid questions" Alvara snapped making Hudson scoff.

" So now, I'm the one asking the stupid question?" He asked.

" Enough the both of you" Bernard half yelled and the two shot each other a glare.

" I'll do the explanation" He added and Alvara nodded.

" Mutants are humans with a genetic mutation know as X-GENE, that causes their bodies to develop abilities that regular homosapiens (humans) can't" Bernard explained.

" Ok, what is mutation?" Alvara asked.

" The alternation in the genetic material like the DNA of a cell of a living organism resulting from either accidents during chemical transaction or from exposure to electromagnetic radiation" Hudson replied.

" Wow. So you're trying to say that we have super powers?" Alvara asked.

" Yeah, if you want to say like a dummy" Hudson hissed.

" But that's great news I mean like wow, we have superpowers, we can do whatever we like" Alvara chuckled happily making Hudson roll his eyes.

" No it is not?" He said and Alvara's face squeezed up in a frown.

" Why?" She asked.

" That is because, in the world we are right now, there is a great racism against mutants. They are viewed as monsters and hated by everyone" Bernard replied.

" But why, what did we do wrong?" Alvara asked.

" That's a long story. Right now, we have to look for a way to get you both on a safe place before.....

Bernard was interrupted by the ringing of the bell.

" Dad, I think they're here" Hudson said in fear.

" Who?" Alvara asked confused.

" The people who are about to arrest us and lock us up!" Hudson snapped angrily.

" Calm down Hudson, I'll go check whose at the door" Bernard said, walking over to the door. He stopped and turned.

" Listen, no matter what, you both shouldn't come downstairs, never" He warned.

" But what if something.....

" I'll be fine. Just do as I said and stay here" Bernard said.

Hudson nodded in agreement and Ben ( Bernard ) headed downstairs.

Alvara rubbed her palms together, trying to ease her tension.

Ben opened the door and standing before him was two cops from the Sentinel service( they are responsible for arresting mutants)

" Oh Liam, Matteo, what brings you guys to my house?" Ben asked, a smile on his lips, trying as much as possible to hide his fear.

" Cut the crap with your formality, Bernard, you know why we're here. We wouldn't want you to waste our time" One of the cops snapped.

" I don't understand what you're talking about, Matteo" Ben replied.

" Where is your son and that monster girlfriend of his?" Matteo asked impatiently.

" Why would you want to see my son?" Ben chuckled lightly.

" Quit the pretense like you're not aware of the havoc your son and his girlfriend created. They killed all those innocent lives and you yourself is familiar with what we do to monsters like them, so step out of the way" The other cop, Liam snapped.

" Am sorry but....

They didn't let Ben finish before the push him off the way with force sending him crashing to the wall and landed with a loud thud on the floor.

They both stepped in, looking around as they slip out their guns.

" Hudson Bernard we know you're in here with your other culprit. We're from the Sentinel and we want you to cooperate with us. Do yourself good by surrendering, we won't bite" Matteo announced loud enough for Hudson and Alvara to hear him.

" Fuck. What am I gonna do?" Hudson cursed under his breath.

" We can't go downstairs, your Dad instructed us not to" Alvara said.

" But what if he's in danger? I'm sure he didn't let them in himself" Hudson said.

" Hudson, we want you to surrender or we do it the hard way" Matteo announced.

" I have to go downstairs" Hudson said rushing to the door.

Alvara went after him and grabbed his wrist.

" You can't do that" She glared sternly but Hudson flung her hand off.

"You don't tell me what to do" He glared angrily at her.

They both heard a gun shot, breaking their glares.

" Dad" Hudson called running out while Alvara trailed after him.

Hudson got downstairs and met the worst shock of his life. Ben was lying on the floor covered with blood.

" Dad" Hudson yelled and tried to move but was stopped when held at gunpoint.

" I won't move an inch if I were you" Liam smirked.

Anger ran through Hudson and he closed his eyes.

He started vibrating in anger and the ground started vibrating too.

Matteo, Liam and Alvara held on to the wall to prevent them from slumping to the floor.

The walls of the building started cracking.

" How dare you?!" Hudson roared and the windows bursted.

" Chill daddy boy, we meant no harm" Liam shuttered in fear.

" Hudson" Alvara called trying to calm him down.

Just when Hudson was about bursting in rage, Alvara held his wrist, stopping him just on time.

Hudson's anger died down immediately and he shot his eyes open.

" Why did you stop me?" He growled in anger.

" You might end up killing all of us. Now instead of letting your anger get the best of you, why don't we focus on getting your father out of here" Alvara replied.

" How?" Hudson asked.

" I have a plan" Alvara replied with a smirk.

Matteo and Liam finally stood on their feet after much struggling and they both pointed their guns at the them.

" Freeze and don't move" Liam managed to say.

Alvara stood before them, her hands raised in a surrender and a smirk on her face.

She slowly closed her eyes and felt that same rush of power before she shot her eyes open.

" How about I send you both flying in the air, huh?" She smirked.

Stretching out her hand, her palms wide open, a strong wave emitted from her palm, sending Liam and Matteo flying and crashing into the wall.

The wall covered the both of them, burying them.

" Wow" Hudson muttered.

" Let's go" Alvara said and helped Hudson carry Bernard.

They got to the backyard and entered the bush.

They were running though they couldn't run much far because of how heavy Bernard is.

They ran a good mile and stopped, placing Bernard gently on the floor.

" Dad" Hudson called, tapping Ben's cheek.

" Dad, please open your eyes" Hudson called out again trying hard to fight back his tears.

Alvara started removing the top she was putting on.

" What are you doing?" Hudson asked but Alvara ignored him.

She removed her top, leaving her with only her singlet.

Hudson heaved in relief. For once he thought he was gonna see a lady in only her bra.

Alvara folded her top and squatted before Ben. Placing the folded top on the spot where he was shot, she exerted pressure on it.

" Continue exerting pressure while I try to find a way out of here" She said to Hudson who nodded.

Alvara left, looking for a route out.

Hudson stared at his father who wasn't responding and a tear slip down his face. He closed his eyes to prevent more tears from falling.

" Dad, please be ok" He pleaded.

Soon Alvara was back.

" Any hope?" Hudson asked on seeing her and she nodded negatively.

She squatted before Ben and gestured Hudson to remove the cloth which he complied.

" What are trying to do?" Hudson asked as she strip off Ben's shirt. She placed her hand on the spot where Ben was shot and slowly closed her eyes.

" If I'm really a mutant, then I pray I can heal him" Alvara replied, her eyes still closed.

She let out a deep sigh before focusing her whole mind on the wound. Seeing herself healing Ben, it gave her more morale.

Hudson watched with parted lips as a blue light shone from Alvara's palm on top of Ben's wound.

To his uttermost surprise me, the blood started drying up and a bullet flew out of his stomach, gradually the wound started covering up and soon it was healed completely.

Staring at Ben's stomach, one could hardly believe he was shot...............

" Wow, you healed him" Hudson exclaimed happily.

" How did you do that?" He asked.

" I don't know, maybe part of my mutant powers" Alvara smirked.

" I just hope he opens his eyes" She added.

" Dad" Hudson called gently.

Slowly Ben opened his eyes, looking around.

" What happened?" He asked sitting up.

" Dad" Hudson called happily, hugging him tightly.

" Well, let's just say you got shot and we manage to escape from the Sentinel into this bush. And in no time, they will come after us, which means we're still in danger" Alvara listed.

Hudson broke from the hug, giving Ben the opportunity to stand on his feet.

" I was shot? Where?" Ben asked when he didn't feel any pain nor see any wound on his body.

" Chill, you were healed, by me" Alvara bragged.

" Is that part of your power?" Ben asked, surprised.

" Yep" Alvara replied.

" Ok, enough of the praising. We should leave this place and get to a safer place" Hudson grunted.

" Don't worry I know somewhere we can go" Ben said.

" Really, where?" Alvara asked.

" Follow me" Ben said and led the way. Alvara and Hudson shrugged their shoulders and followed suit.

They trailed behind for what seemed like eternity to both of them and they were already getting exhausted.

Alvara stopped as her knee was already arching. She supported her palm on her laps, her waist half bent, she was painting heavily.

" Ok, that's it. I'm exhausted" She said, crouching to the floor.

" Not to tell a lie, even I'm exhausted" Hudson backed her up, his butt on the floor.

" Giving up already?" Ben asked with a shrug. Hudson and Alvara glared at him but couldn't trace any atom of fatigue on his face. He looked as energized as ever, like he was ready to trek to the end of the world.

" Mr chiseled face, you never told us we were taking a journey to the dead. We've been trekking for hours non-stop" Alvara said.

" My knees are begging my pardon" She added, lying with her back on the ground.

" I don't think you'll say that by the time you hear sounds of guard dogs behind" Ben said.

" They can't find us. We're literally in an unknown" Hudson grunted.

" Never say never. Nothing is impossible for them" Ben said.

" Now stop being lazy and get up, we're almost there" He added and turned, backing them.

The two let out a loud groan.

" That is what you've been saying all along" Alvara muttered before standing on her feet. Hudson dragged his lazy butt off the ground and they trailed behind Ben.

Ben finally stopped and turned with a smile on his lips

" We're finally here" He announced.

Alvara and Hudson stared blankly at him like he has grown two horns. They both slowly looked around before staring back at Ben.

" Mr chiseled face, where are we?" Alvara asked, blinking.

" We've finally reached our destination" Ben replied.

" Ok, dad, all I could see are bunches of trees all around and a wall covered with grasses. I don't see any house or anything that looks like it" Hudson said.

" Wait for it" Ben smirked placing his palm on the wall. The wall slowly opened like a door, revealing a pass way.

Hudson and Alvara's jaw dropped open.

" Whoa..! " Alvara exclaimed.

" Follow me" Ben said heading inside and they both followed.

Their jaw even dropped the more when they entered a house.

" Wow Mr chiseled face, you never told me you're a secret agent" Alvara said.

" Dad" Hudson called happily.

" I actually built this secret hide out years back and it is finally of use now" Ben said, inhaling the great aurora of the house.

He headed to he kitchen and grabbed two cups, rinsing them and filling it up with water. Hudson and Alvara took a sit on the dinning.

" This place doesn't look like something built years ago. It is still fresh and new plus......not even an atom of dust" Hudson chuckled.

" That's because I made sure I took proper care of it. Once in a while, come around and do some thorough clean up" Ben said passing the two cups to them. They both grabbed the cup, gulping down the water.

"Mehn, water is life" Alvara heaved.

" Anyways dad, what prompted you to building this place?" Hudson asked.

Ben's smiley face suddenly turned to a gloomy one, like he was reminded of something he wanted to forget.

" Another story for another day. Most importantly, they both of you should go take your bath. You haven't done that since last night" Ben replied.

Hudson and Alvara sniffed their armpit and their nose twitched due to the disgusting smell oozing out of there.

" Jeez, I smell horrible" They both said in disgust.

" A more reason you should go take your bath, I need some fresh air " Ben replied.

" And what are we gonna put on after that?"Alvara asked

" Not a problem. You'll find bunches of new clothes in the wardrobe, just make a choice" Ben replied and Alvara ran off before Ben could say anything further but stopped abruptly, tip toeing backward to where Hudson and Ben was staring at her with folded arms

" The bathroom is that way" Ben said pointing to the left.

Alvara chuckled lightly before heading to the left.

" I'll prepare dinner. You should join her" Ben said to Hudson who nodded before leaving.

• *. *

They were all having dinner, some hot baked spaghetti, when something popped up Alvara's head

" Erm.... Mr chiseled face......

" Bernard. That's my name" Ben corrected.

" Whatever. Remember I asked a question earlier, right?" Alvara asked and Ben raised a brow at her.

" Which was?" He asked.

" Why is there a great racism against we mutants...I mean what did we do?" Alvara asked and Hudson looked up.

" Yeah dad, why?" He asked.

" Listen young lady......

" Alvara" Alvara corrected making Hudson scoff.

" Alvara.. seriously? Why will your mom name you an elf warrior, it is not as if you're one" He huffed.

" I might not be but I do act like one" Alvara bragged and Hudson almost hissed.

" Now back to the question" Alvara said.

" Listen, it's a long story" Ben replied.

" Cut it short" Alvara and Hudson snapped impatiently.

" Ok, if you insist" Ben gave in.

" Well, let's just say; the first know mutant were evil one's and they used their powers for their selfish gain" Ben began.

" Who were the first mutants?" Hudson asked.

" Here's the story;

"One million years ago, an alien race called the 'CELESTIALS' came all the way from their planet to earth and performed a genetic experiment proto- humanity, incorporating and altering the DNA in the genetic code of the early species of the genus homo to allow future generations gain superpowers" Ben explained.

" So you're saying, the so called Celestials were the source of all mutants?" Alvara pointed out.

" Exactly" Ben replied.

" Then who was the first recorded mutant on earth after the celestial left?" Hudson asked

" Selena Galileo, who lived as early as in the Hybrian age" Ben replied immediately.

" Her mutant power granted her immortality, making her the first member of the Externals, a group of immortal mutants which includes Gideon, Candra, Apocalypse and many others. But unfortunately, Selena allowed her power get to her head and she eventually turned into a villain, sucking life from every mutant she come across with in other to prolong her own life....
