Ira smiled at jean but the bell required her to start her class before she got the chance to speak. it didnt take her telepathy to notice that the class was already on edge. since the school was a public safe haven for mutants some didnt feel quite safe. which honestly was a fair feeling. 

"As most of you seem to be aware the government is making a law that says we "should" register our names. but this isnt a politics class, this isnt a history class so i wont speak much of the issue. but i would like to remind each and every one of you" Ira motioned for Jean to come and join her at the front of the room "the reason this school was opened many years ago by Professor charles Xavier was to teach gifted children like yourselves, like us that we are not cursed. year after year we kept our doors open to anyone one the quest of self discovery. and over the years some have chosen become heroes, some have chosen to become villians. each one of you, each one of us will have to make a choice. this school will not make that choice for you. we will guide you and hope for you and even pray for you but the choice was and always will be yours."

a girl in the third row raises her hand "but ms Psi what if we make the wrong choice?"

ira smiled "I'm glad you asked. if you stand by your choice it will never be the wrong choice. others may not agree, some may try to stop you, good or other. but if its what you believe in you fight for it. now then. squad up. groups of four. 3 on 1's. no powers " 

Ira hasnt forgotton about Jean "anything you would like to say to the class?"
