Author: Felidae Silvestris
Chapter: Prologue
Disclaimer: I own neither X-Men nor Buffy.
The forest is usually the best place to train the newest of Xavier's recruits. Or should I say, Summers' and Frost's recruits, since Xavier is no longer with us? But anyway, the forest is usually the best place to train the newbies.
Logan and I had a pretty good system worked out. We'd both take the kids by surprise in the trees while Lockheed would distract them. Worked for me. Worked for Logan. We were good at this. None of the kids could take us by surprise. At least, that's what I was thinking at the moment a portal opened behind me.
Lockheed was there an instant before a strange pulling started up. I felt something pulling at me, pulling me toward the open portal. First rule when dealing with portals: Unless you know who made it, don't go near it. Too late for me, apparently.
Next thing I know, I'm in a basement, being pummeled by a blond with hazel eyes.
