Ten children in total, all of them referred to only by their numbers; Zero through to Nine.  All of them were trained as a unit with each having their own specific specialties.<br/><br/>In Zero's case; it was adaptive, operational target elimination.<br/><br/>Zero was the Prodigy Project's solution for wetwork or assassination.<br/><br/>All ten children were educated but limited to their individual specialities; and in Zero's case he was taught and drilled daily on the use of side arms and hand to hand combat.<br/><br/>While kept under close supervision and very disciplined and regimented schedules, the ten children grew into young adults and over time they had become a family.  In particular, Zero had grown close to Seven.  Seven was a mutant that had been trained for long term, deep cover, infiltration and what Department K had termed "a significant disruption to national infrastructure".  Where Seven appeared to be the most popular amongst then ten, she seemed partial to Zero and his straight forward ways and complete lack of deception or guile.<br/><br/>Seven happened to be the first of the Prodigy Project to disappear.  It was explained to those remaining that she had graduated and it was something they could all look forward to in the future.<br/><br/>Disappointed...heartbroken in a way, Zero continued with his training over the years until he had in turn been brought to a point where he was ready to "graduate".  He was brought to one of the monitoring rooms that they had grown accustomed to and on a large screen he could see a luxurious bedroom and the view on the screen was clearly due to a secret micro-camera that was observing the bedroom.  His "target" was asleep in bed and he was told that the target had proven themselves to be what was deemed a Level 10 threat.  Zero had trained for this and he knew precisely what to do.<br/><br/>Fully geared; Zero was ready for his first operation and to graduate.  It was all he had been taught to look forward to since he could remember.<br/><br/>He was given the go ahead and after nearly a minute of concentration he blinked out of the monitoring room and reappeared in the bedroom he had been observing.<br/><br/>He was standing by the bed and as he drew his side arm to complete the op, he paused as he looked to the target in the bed who up until now had been mostly obscured by the bed sheets.  The target in the bed was a woman and detecting the odd disturbance from his arrival in her room, she slowly opened her eyes and looked up at Zero.<br/><br/>He paused...<br/><br/>The woman in bed...was Seven.<br/><br/>She blinked her eyes as he loomed over her...the light of recognition showing in her eyes and she spoke softly, "Steven?"<br/><br/>He shook his head slightly...taking a step back from the bed.  Seven sat up, holding out a hand to Zero; possibly in defense or as a way to implore him to stop...or stay...but a heartbeat later Zero disappeared.<br/><br/>Zero was lost to Department K after that.<br/><br/>A year later; Zero was found in New York City...recruited by Cyclops and Storm; having been living on the streets of New York as a homeless person who showed remarkable skill at stealing food from grocery stores and bakeries during after hours.<br/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 18pt;"><span class="bbc_u">Mutations and Powers</span></span><br/><strong>Classification:</strong>Delta<br/><br/><strong>Type of mutant:</strong>- Redacted -<br/><br/><strong>Powers:</strong><br/><br/><strong>Teleportation</strong>–  Can move himself and up to two hundred additional pounds up to 100 meters in any direction he has line of sight to.  He needs roughly 1 second between teleportation attempts to “recharge” but straining to greater distances beyond 100 meters or carrying more than just himself along with him can result in greater exhaustion and leave him drained for an extended period. Each instance of teleportation does tire him.  He can currently “rapid-fire” teleport fifteen times over a stretch of fifteen to twenty seconds and that will leave him breathing heavily and in need of a rest for two to three minutes.  Newton’s First Law of Motion still governs this power.  If he is running and leaps into the air, only to the teleport; upon appearing again he will maintain that momentum.  If he is falling, he can indeed teleport out of that fall but depending on how far he has fallen; he will maintain that momentum and downward force upon reappearing elsewhere.  Psychologically he still relies from time to time on a physical stimulus for his teleportation.  Example:  At times; when under stress if he was on a rooftop of a building and needed to teleport to another rooftop; he would need to sprint towards the edge and jump…only to then reappear on the other rooftop.  This physical stimulus is NOT needed and is indeed something he must overcome.  After a teleport and upon reappearing there is a minor shockwave that accompanies this reappearance.  Not a shockwave of a physical nature but more; a wave of silence that radiates out from him; silencing all noise for a second as it moves outward from him until it dissipates at a 15 meter radius from his point of reappearing.<br/><br/><strong><br/>Remote Relocation</strong>– With focus and under the right circumstances; he can use a remote video feed to act as guidance for his teleportation.  This can allow him to teleport far…far beyond what his normal range currently is.<br/><br/><br/><strong>Abilities:</strong><br/><br/>Highly skilled in Krav Maga and Jiu Jitsu<br/>Highly skilled with small arms (semi-automatic pistols)<br/>Covert Ops and Tradecraft Training<br/>* Sleight of hand, palming<br/>* Pick pocketing<br/>* Covert communication and dead drops<br/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 18pt;"><span class="bbc_u">School Information</span></span><br/><strong>Classes Taken:</strong><br/>Mental Resilience<br/>History - Homosapien & Homosuperior<br/>History 101<br/>Power Control<br/>Strategy & Tactics<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><strong>Clubs/Extracurriculars:</strong><br/><br/>Track<br/>Swimming<br/>Volleyball<br/>Tennis<br/>Archery<br/><br/><strong>Student Relations:</strong><br/><br/>None as yet
