Over the years, Ivy had gotten used to dealing with the problem of her telepathy on her own. She didn't think it was possible to still be annoyed that she couldn't tell anyone about it. Until today.
Trying to research something that technically wasn't supposed to exist was driving her crazy. She read dozens of Y-Men comics without finding any truly helpful information.
Unlike most superheroes, all of the Y-Men had been born with their powers. It wasn't only Doctor Y. With them it was a strange genetic mutation that caused their abilities rather than falling into a vat of toxic waste or whatever else caused people to become superheroes.
What had caused her to be born different? Ivy had never heard of anyone else having powers in real life before. Surely not everyone could be as careful as she was. If there were other people out there like her, wouldn't there have been at least a whisper about it?
