This is my first fanfic. I hope you like it.

"Come on, Gambit. Weh fallen behind," Rogue said impatiently.

"That okay, Chere. Gambit in no hurry."

"Well, maybe Ah am."

The x-men were on their way to Old Pete's. Technically Jubilee was too young but Jean and Betsy were going to sneak her in with their powers.

"I hear and smell a baby."

"You in the city, Logan," Gambit told him. "Course you going to smell a son or fille."

"I'm saying I don't smell parents, just the little baby."

"Well, let's go and check it out. We're not in any hurry. We got today and tomorrow—correction: tonight and tomorrow," said Tabitha with a laugh.

"Yes, let's go and check out this child. Logan please lead us to it," Jean Grey said.

"My pleasure," said Logan with a growl aside to Gambit.

Logan led them to an alley, and soon they could all hear the baby. It was crying quite sadly as if it had no strength left to cry louder. Logan looked behind a cardboard box and picked up the little baby that was lying there. It had blue eyes and blonde hair, but it had streaks of red and black hair—not popping out like highlights, just here and there. The baby also appeared as though it might be partly Asian, African, or both from the faint hints of dark pigment in the skin. The baby nestled in Logan's arms was very light though, so it was hard to tell for sure. It looked almost liked it was tanned by the sun, but the baby was obviously still too young to have developed a tan yet.

"It's a she, and she smells liked X-Men," Logan announced. "Hank, bring her home and run some tests on her." (No one seemed to question him, but they were upset about his plans for the baby.)

"We are bring her to the mansion," said Scott, but Hank is not running tests on her."

"Thank goodness!" Hank interrupted.

Ignoring him, Scott continued, "Unless we need to in order to find her parents."

"Of course," Hank agreed. "Let's get her home right now. She is very under-nourished. Oh, I don't have any baby formula or anything!"

"OK," said Jean. "Come on, X-Women! Let's go shopping, and the x-men can take her home. Logan, Jono, behave yourselves! That means no killing the baby! (Sorry,) added Jean into Scott's head. (You're a great leader, but we're talking about a little baby here—this is more of the women's stage.)

"Yeah!" said Jubilee.

Tabitha echoed her excitement by adding, "We have a new X-Men!"

The others smiled (they had too, excitement is addicting)—except for Jono, who said with some reservation, "Wait and see—we don't even know if she's a mutant or a normal yet.
