With very little information, she read a portion of Martin's memory, which was where Martin found himself from the beginning.
"No...my parents..." Under the protection mechanism of her body, Jean had temporarily forgotten what happened today, but the scene in Martin's mind just now made her remember everything. Martin was not Charles, who can only seal other people's memories and powers. Martin held the crying Jean in his arms, controlling her out-of-control power so that she would not be hurt by the power again, and allowing her to vent her sorrow.
"Don't worry, I will stay with you. This will be your home from now on." That was all Martin could say to comfort her. People who can awaken their spiritual powers were destined to be stronger from inside than ordinary people. Jean cried for a long time before she slowly calmed down. Of course she was still very sad inside, and it will take time to heal.
"I didn't find my parents' bodies in your memory." Jean whispered.
"I didn't find anyone else," Martin said, stroking her hair.
"What is my power?"
"Phoenix Force..." Martin explained to her, then put a hand in front of her eyes, "Look."
As Martin spoke, a flaming phoenix made of pure energy appeared in the palm of his hand.
"We have the same power."
"I hate this power..." Jean said dejectedly. It was the explosion of this power that led to the destruction of her family and the death of many people.
"Jean, it has nothing to do with strength, you just... no one taught you how to use this power. In this world, some people are born with great powers. Some of them are lucky, and someone will tell them how to use their power from the beginning. Some of them are unlucky and don't know how to control it, which eventually causes destruction or even disaster. Even worse, they themselves will suffer great harm. The Phoenix force in your body is like a newborn beast. It is her instinct to release the power. What you need is to learn how to use it."
"I'm scared..." Jean said softly.
"Don't be afraid. Have you forgotten? I have the same power. I will teach you. With me here, you won't hurt anyone. I will protect you, forever." Martin lifted her face, looked into her eyes and said, "I promise."
"Yeah..." Jean looked at Martin's doting eyes and nodded.
"Okay, wash your face and come with me to eat. After dinner, I will teach you how to control the Phoenix Force in a preliminary way to prevent you from releasing it again."
"Okay." Jean was a little dirty, but Martin was worried that she would be scared if she woke up and found that someone had touched her clothes, so he didn't let Wendy help her bathe.
"There's a bathroom in your bedroom. Go take a shower. It's right there." Martin pointed to the bathroom and said, "I'll have someone bring you clothes in a while."
"Thanks."
Martin left the room and went downstairs to the living room, where Wendy had already prepared dinner.
"Wendy, go give Jean a clean dress. Once she's changed, bring her down for dinner."
"Okay, I washed the new clothes, and they are dry now."
"Okay, thank you Wendy... Muah~." Martin kissed Wendy and then let her go up. Sitting at the dining table, Martin waited patiently. Because of the constant connection with Jean, he could sense her emotions. Of course Jean could also sense Martin's, but she couldn't yet. Martin felt sorry for Jean because she was so sad. He could only take good care of her and help her get over it as soon as possible.
After more than ten minutes, Wendy came down with Jean. The unfamiliar environment made her feel a little uneasy. It was not until she saw Martin that she breathed a sigh of relief and walked quickly to Martin.
"Sit down." Martin took her hand and asked her to sit next to him, "Come and try it. Wendy is a gourmet master. She can cook any kind of food. Just tell her what you want to eat."
"Okay." Jean picked up the cutlery and started eating slowly.
"Wendy, you can eat to." Martin said to Wendy.
"Okay." Wendy was actually a little shy about the new member. She was worried that she would fall out of favor if she did something wrong. Noticing her emotion, Martin smiled at her. It was not that Martin was snooping on purpose, but his mental power was so strong that he could always detect any subtle emotions revealed by the people around him.
"Are you full?" Martin asked with concern when he saw Jean put down her cutlery.
"Um." Jean ate very little, probably because she had no appetite.
Martin touched her head distressedly and said, "Okay, it's good as long as you are full."
While eating, Martin chatted with Jean about some of his past interactions with mutants, which gradually made her mood better. Jean was very sensible and tried her best to cooperate with Martin.
"Come on, I'll take you to practice." Martin said to Jean. Jean also wanted to take control as soon as possible, at least to control her power. Arriving at the door of Jean's bedroom, Martin asked, "This is my bedroom next to your. Call me if you need anything."
"Um."
The sheets and quilt covers in the bedroom had been changed by Wendy while Jean was taking a shower. The two sat on the bed facing each other, Martin held Jean's hand, "Follow my power and try..."
They stayed there for two hours, and with Martin comforting her, Jean quickly established a weak communication with the Phoenix Force. At the same time, she could also directly felt the connection between herself and Martin. Jean secretly opened her eyes, glanced at Martin who had his eyes closed, then smiled slightly and closed her eyes again.
"You're so smart, Jean." Martin sensed Jean's progress and began to praise her.
"Thank you." Jean was also very happy to be praised.
"Okay, I'm going to withdraw my power, you try it yourself." Martin said, opening his eyes.
"Okay." The moment Martin's power was withdrawn, Jean's expression became much more serious. However, the imagined riot did not come, and Jean was still able to control it.
Just as a divine weapon will recognize its master, so does the power of the Phoenix. Jean no longer rejected the power of the Phoenix. As long as she establishes a connection with the power of the Phoenix, she can naturally control it.
"It's working." Jean opened her eyes and smiled, while trying to cast a fire phoenix in her palm like Martin did at night, "Ah..."
"It's okay, it's okay, relax, don't be nervous."
Because it was her first cast, Jean didn't control the strength well and the power of the Phoenix almost exploded, with a passive explosion. Fortunately, Martin was there.
"Relax...yes...that's it...I succeeded." Jean was very happy as she looked at the vivid flaming Phoenix in her palm.
"Yes, you succeeded." Martin said and Jean's eyes began to turn red again.
"It's okay..." Martin comforted Jean.
"Um..."
"Jean, how about trying another power?" Martin tried to divert her attention.
