Francis was stood in front of his mirror, changing his appearance between his human form, and his father's (his human father, not his birth father). He kept doing this for around 20 minutes, trying to change his height as well. Unfortunately, he was seemingly incapable of doing this, and he always turned out as a 6'4" version of his dad, which would fool nobody, seeing as his dad was actually 5'10". Francis decided to give up on changing his height, and resigned to his bed, shifting back into his human form. After some reading of a book, he heard a knock on his door. [colour=green]"Come in,"[/colour] he called, assuming it was one of his parents, or a sibling. However, when the door opened, it turned out not to be anyone in his family, but a blue skinned person, with only three fingers.

[colour=0054a6]"Hello, Francis,"[/colour] the man said, walking into the room. Francis, however, sat there staring at the man, shocked, until he worked out who it was.

[colour=green]"Y-you're Nightcrawler!"[/colour] he said in shock.

[colour=0054a6]"Yes, and I need your help,"[/colour]

[colour=green]"N-n-no, I can't help you,"[/colour] Francis stuttered, realising what this could be.

Nightcrawler walked up to Francis's bed, [colour=0054a6]"I can help you, too,"[/colour]

[colour=green]"No!"[/colour] Francis shouted, jumping up off of his bed and running out of his room. As he got through the door to the landing, Nightcrawler appeared out of thin air, [colour=0054a6]"What are you so scared of?"[/colour] he asked, but Francis ignored him, running into his parents' bedroom and into their wardrobe, before turning invisible.

[colour=0054a6]"You can't run away from me that easily,"[/colour] Francis heard from the corner. He looked up to see Nightcrawler in the top corner of the wardrobe. Francis shouted out in fear and shock, and due to this, and all of shifting earlier, he involuntarily shifted into his true, red form. [colour=green]"Was this your plan? Make me look like this so I realise what I am? I'm still not going to help him!"[/colour] Francis shouted.

[colour=0054a6]"What are you talking about? Who?"[/colour] Nightcrawler asked, before sighing, [colour=0054a6]"This'll be easier."[/colour]

Suddenly, Nightcrawler jumped down and grabbed Francis, before teleporting them both to the bunker. Francis looked around, still on the ground, and still in his true form, and saw that there were other people around his age, who looked just as innocent. Perhaps this wasn't what he thought it was going to be, and perhaps it wasn't as bad, either.
