A tanned girl with wavy brown hair sat inside the back of a cab. Her green eyes looked at the Jean Grey School for Higher Learning. She wore a pair of jean daisy dukes and a flowy tank top that is yellow and red striped. A pair of cloth flowers are on the back of the tank top by the spaghetti straps. The tank top had a name tag that read Courtney Hara. A line was visible on her midriff that was the line to a flesh pouch. Sticking out of the pouch was a baby human. It was only a few weeks to a couple of months old with the same tanned skin as it's assumed mother. Only it had tuffs of brown hair while it's eyes were closed. The baby's head was a few times smaller than the average human baby.
The baby yawned as it crawled up with it's two hands. It pulled it's upper half of the body under her shirt where it began to feed. Courtney seemed slightly uncomfortable with this, but she was getting used to it. Her powers had always been odd to her. On her 17th birthday her powers had manifested in the form of enhanced climbing and enhanced leaping. She also had enhanced senses and healed faster from a bruise from her abusive brother. But, when she had sex with her boyfriend who looked at her with acceptance, she got pregnant. About three weeks later she had developed a bulge like pouch on her midriff. She had discovered at she had a baby human now that treated her like a kangaroo. That's when Courtney truly realized her situation and told her ex-boyfriend. Who ran out on her on their son because he wasn't ready to be a dad. Not wanting to live in a house with absent minded parents and an abusive brother, she had to make a choice.
Courtney had limited options left to her as she then decided to call the Jean Grey School for Higher Learning. She packed up after a talk with Ms. Pryde and got onto a greyhound bus. When she got to Salem Center she called a cab to get to the school. Where she'd be taught proper use of her powers and hopefully to live at. She opened the door as the cabbie said to her expecting his fare, "That'll be $67.85."
Did someone pay the fare for her or does she pay it?
