CHAPTER 1: A Fresh Start

"Rogue…" Bobby said.

"I couldn't do it. I just couldn't," Rogue replied holding out a gloved hand, which Bobby took.

A girl barged in, took one look at the two of them in the room, and turned around heading back out, "Oh, I'm so sorry. I thought this was room 302. Sorry for interrupting…whatever you were doin'… sorry," she said as she trudged out the door, closing it behind her. She had dark brown hair, dark blood-red eyes, was about 5'4, has a nice bass tan, was holding a crazy amount of things in her hands, and had nothing else, but a heavy backpack and the clothes she was wearing.

She walked around quickly looking for her destination. Not seeing that there was a guy walking the opposite direction and crashed right into him, all of her papers and books falling to the ground.

"You idiot!" she exclaimed, frustrated. They both bent down and started picking up all of her junk, "What the hell is wrong with-," she stopped when she took one look at him. He had great white wings, blonde hair, blue eyes, was about 5'7, and had very hot features.

"You were saying," he prodded cautiously.

"Just watch where you're going," she said picking up the last of her things and leaving.

Soon enough she found her true destination, the room she was going to be staying in when she was in "Mutant High."

The room was empty except for a window looking out across the courtyard, a small desk and a chair in the corner, a bed that was pushed against the wall, and a dresser that faced it. There was a large mirror atop the dresser and nothing on the desk but an old phone and a small clock.

"Cozy," the girl commented unenthusiastically. She took a quick at the clock, there was about 10 minutes before her first class of the entire year. She dumped her stuff onto the bed sat down in the chair and picked up the phone listening to the dial tone for a few seconds before dialing a familiar phone number.

"Hello?" a man's voice answered.

"Hey Lucas, it's me," the girl responded.

"Cerenity, are you ever coming home? Dad's going crazy without you here."

"No. Not until he gets over his alcoholic addiction, so stop asking me that," Cerenity said irritably.

"You know I won't do that until you're safe at home," Lucas replied.

"Since mom's death, I was never safe at home. It's not like you live there anymore."

"Well I do visit-"

"Once a month, you have college as your holy sanctuary."

A moment of silence passed.

"Loser," Cerenity said to her brother.

"Runaway."

"Wimp."

"Bitch."

"I've got to go," Cerenity pronounced breaking their brotherly/sisterly chatter.

She hung up the phone and leaned back into the hard chair, thinking about the guy she crashed into for a few minutes before getting up, grabbing the things she was going to need for her classes, and walking out the door to hunt for the right classrooms.

By lunchtime Cerenity was already sick of the day. She had learned that she wouldn't be able to start training to be an actual X until her second year rolled around, but she could fix that. Not to mention, her classes so far had been extremely boring, and she couldn't find her journal.

When she finally got her lunch, more than half of the lunch tables were crowded by hundreds of mutants that attended the school. It took awhile before she found an empty table.

After a few minutes Rogue and Bobby sat down at the table Cerenity was sitting at.

"Hey," Rogue said.

"Hey," replied Cerenity, "sorry about this morning."

"It's okay, really. It happens all the time."

"Seriously?"

"No," Rogue said making them both laugh.

"I'm Cerenity Lasser," Cerenity said.

"I'm Marie, but everyone calls me Rogue. This is my boyfriend Bobby, some people call him Iceman," Rogue said gesturing at Bobby.

"Nice to meet you," Bobby said.

"You too," Cerenity replied.

"So how'd you hear about this place?" Rogue asked Cerenity.

"I saw it on TV. You?"

"I was brought here by Ororo and Scott a.k.a. Storm and Cyclops."

"That's cool, code names," Cerenity remarked.

"Well yeah, we're special people." Bobby said causing stares from Rogue and Cerenity. "What?"

Just then the guy she crashed into came to their table, "Hey, you dropped this, this morning," he said putting her journal down onto the table.

She glanced at the journal, glanced at him, then glanced back at the journal, and looked questionably at him.

"I didn't look through it," he said.

Cerenity took at few more glances, then nodded and grabbed the journal.

"I'm Warren by the way. Some call me Angel," the guy said.

"Nice," Cerenity said, trying to ignore the mutual attraction between the two of them. "I have to go," she said turning her attention to Rogue and Bobby, "see ya around."

She got all of her stuff and was leaving in a matter of seconds when she heard Angel's voice. She turned.

"I didn't get your name," he said.

"That's because I didn't give it," she replied, turning back around and heading back to her room before going to her next class. This day had just gotten a lot better.
