Author's Notes:

Apologies for the delay and a bit of a boring chapter. I'm going to try to stick with different 'Arks', and, in this case, this is the X-Men Ark.

Night time had arrived in the private school/Mansion of Xavier's school for gifted youngsters. On his wheelchair & in his suit, Xavier, also called Professor X, rolled around, looking over some documents regarding some new students and what the government may be planning. He paused as he sensed someone around. It wasn't one of his students, but... some stranger. He followed it, pondering to himself.

Let's see here... female... not human... but not entirely a mutant either. He thought to himself Hm... young... a three year old? ... Hungry He strolled into the kitchen, seeing only the lights on and relatively clean... but a butter knife with mayonnaise was in the sink. "Whoever you are, you can come out." He said "I am Charles Xavier. I run this school." Silence... followed by something falling onto his bald head. He grumbled, taking off what was a slice of bologna. He looked up to see Lunacy on the ceiling, holding herself up there, silently chewing on a sandwich with a free arm. They stared at each other awkwardly. She swallowed.

"...Don't tell my mom." She said.

"...Can you please get down?" Neaera sighed and landed on the floor, next to the professor... then began to touch his bald head.

"So... shiny! So smoo~th..."

"Please, don't touch my head."

"Sorry!" she stood back a few inches. He turned to her.

"Hm... Are you related to Beta Ray Bill by any chance?"

"Who's that?"

"Nevermind." He rolled around her, examining her, "Hm... I've never seen anyone like you. I heard what happened yesterday."

"Look, whatever you think, I'm-"

"I'm not saying you are. Just by seein you, I knew you were different, and I wanted to talk to you."

"...Why didn't you then?"

"Cerebro is temporarily broken right now. One of my assistants, Hank, is going to be able to fix it tomorrow morning. If it weren't broken, I'd been able to talk with you."

"...Like a cellphone?"

"Almost. I'm a telepathic; I can read minds."

"Really? Like... all the time?"

"I give my students their privacy, but, I'd like to get to know you a bit. May you-" Neaera got a stool and sat on it. "...Excited, are we?"

"Yeah! I wanna see if you can do this!"

"Hm... may you-"

"Take my mask off? Eh, I don't see why not." She took her mask off, moving her jaw a bit & swatted some sweat from her head. "Man, how do they keep their mask on that long?... oh! Sorry, I know, I have a horse head, or, as most viewers would point out, a pony head."

"Can we focus?"

"Sorry." Xavier gently held her head in her hands. She leaned forward. "...So... do we kiss or-?" She paused as she felt the place change.

Neaera found herself in her old room, seeing Deadpool and Luna looking over a crib.

"Ooh! Do I have a sister!? A brohter!?" She asked "Or is this some sort of subconscious fear that-?" Both Deadpool and Luna cringed at the crib.

"Is that OUR baby!?" Deadpool asked

"Mother of my sister!" Luna added "It's... an abomination!"

"Yep." Neaera said "Oh, How original."

"You're unfazed by this?" Xavier asked. Neaera turned to see Xavier, walking next to her. "I'm quite surprised by this."

"Look, I haven't seen any films, but-"

"No, not that, but your family."

"Oh! Them? Yeah... my dad landed in Equestria some years ago and, during that time, he pretty much did... I don't know."

"Considering I know Deadpool, it's not good."

"I beg to differ; he saved Equestria and, before that, he and my mother, Princess Luna, fell in love with each other."

"... A horse?"

"Yeah... I know, it's weird, but, Love is blind."

"And inhumane, in his case."

"...Anyway... yes, they fell in love, and, despite my dad being sterile, I came along; Neaera."

"Neaera? Hm... quite a beautiful name, actually."

"Yeah, and, let's see here... care to travel into the future?"

"This is your mind. I'm just a visitor."

"Ah... well... through here!" She lead him through a door, showing him Equestria. Everything was still, but both can see many details; Derpy, the Doctor, & their kids were at the park, The apples sold their apples, Twilight Sparkle & Spike held a speech, and, topping it all off, Deadpool tossed around a young Neaera with Luna taking a picture of the two.

"Hm... you seem to be a happy family."

"Yeah... my dad was more of the fun type, and my mom was the busy type. When she wasn't busy with her princess duties, she's pretty fun to be with... though, she wasn't too high strung with my choice."

"...And that is?"

"...I chose to become the next superhero rather than become a princess."

"A princess?"

"Yeah... but you see, my mom is the princess of the night and dreams. She's an alicorn. I'm not."

"Yes, I can see that... but you know, not everyone should keep their power."

"And the most good of people can go mad with power. If there's one thing I don't want to do too much, it's be a leader very much. Remember, Deadpool is my father, and he's not... well... perfect."

"Hm... I understand. Your father is a good help, but only in small doses."

"...Why are you so... fine around me?"

"I don't judge anyone. I know there's good in everyone, and you are one of them. Plus, you're not as insane as your father, and I'm sure your mother raised you well."

"...Thanks, prof."

"Your very welcome. And I sense that you wanted to tell me something?"

"Yeah... you know I'm three years old, right?"

"I do, and, though it's strange, that's what makes all of us unique in our own way. I also sense that you're able to gain powers?"

"Almost. It was a one time thing, really; I got a tome and gained a power from it, but, as you can tell, I already have some abilities with me."

"Magic and healing?"

"Magic, not so much, healing... it's more of repairing than replacing, so, yeah, I'm gonna have to be careful and not go in head strong."

"... Wise, young one."

"... Can we get outta here?"

"Very well."

Neaera shook her head as Xavier released her head.

"There we go," Xavier said "Now, I think we should go to bed."

"...Together?" she asked.

"What!?... oh, nonono, I have multiple spare rooms available. You wouldn't believe how many guests like you enter. Follow me, I can show you your room for tonight... unless."

"...Unless what?" He wheeled away. Neaera sighed but followed him. They passed by a couple of room, some other students peeked and got a look at her.

"Don't mind her; go back to bed." The students went back to their rooms "Now, would you like to be a student?"

"...A student, sir?"

"A student. Here, you can learn how to control your powers, have a place to live in, and, in your case, be both part of a team and feel welcomed here."

"...Well... it does sound good... but-" Xavier opened a door for her. The room was relatively small with a bed big enough for her, and it did feel a bit welcoming. He turned to her.

"Why don't you go to sleep? Tomorrow is your free day here; explore around the university, meet some of the teachers and other students here" He placed his right hand to his head. And the code is 1963

"... Uh... why did you-"

"Goodnight, Neaera. Hopefully, you'll want to be here."
