Chapter One
A new girl walked up to Bayville High School. She was about 5' 5 with long black hair pulled back into a braid. She had light blue eyes with a nervous look on her face. She took a few deep breaths before taking a step forward, but than she found herself on the ground. She didn't even know what had hit her.
"Pietro, you jerk," someone yelled from behind her.
She looked behind her to see a boy on a skate board. He rode up next to her and helped her off the ground.
"Sorry," he said, "Pietro can be a real pain. You must be new here. I'm Evan, though, my friends call me Spyke."
"Hi, I'm Kathy," She said with a smile.
"Nice to meet you," Evan said, than the bell rang, "oh man, late again."
Evan skated off, while Kathy headed into the school. She went into the office to check in, and the principal came out to greet her.
"Good day," he said with no sign of being happy at all, "I'm the principal, Kelly, and I would just like to talk."
"Okay," Kathy said.
Kelly gave a smile, before handing her a small paper book.
"This book will tell you all the mutants in the school," Kelly said, "you flip through it so you know who is dangerous."
Kathy didn't say anything. Kelly just smiled and went back into his office. Kathy finished up with checking in and got her class schedule. She headed to her first class, which was math. She sat down in the back of the class. She looked down at the book Kelly gave her and started flipping through it. The first person she noticed was Evan. She read down the list and saw that three people in the book were in her class.
There was Kitty, sitting just three seats in front of her. Than there was Rogue in the very back corner. Than there was Kurt, who was actually sitting right across from her. There were two pictures of him in the book, one looking normal and the other with blue skin and a tail. She looked at Kurt, than looked back to see if she could see his tail, but she couldn't. Kurt did seem to notice that she was staring at him.
"Can I help you?" Kurt whispered.
Kathy just looked at him before turning back to look at the front of the class. Kurt noticed the book on her desk and was shocked to see a picture of him and his friends. Kathy noticed him looking at the book, and closed it before he could see anymore.
Soon the bell rang and everyone started to leave. The rest of Kathy's classes seemed to go by fine and soon it was lunch. She got her food and sat down at an empty table. She started to eat when Evan sat down by her.
"Have you had a good first day?" Evan asked.
"Oh ya, it's been very good," Kathy said.
Than Kitty and Rogue sat dwon, followed by Jean and Scott.
"Hello," Jean said with a friendly smile, "I saw you in Chemisty, pretty advanced class for your grade."
"Ya," Kathy said, "I noticed only Seniors in there."
"It's a Senior class," Scott said, "they do have another Chemisty class that you could take."
"It's okay," Kathy said, just as Kurt sat down looking a bit sad.
"What's wrong, Kurt?" Kitty asked.
"Amanda broke up vith me," Kurt said, "she vouldn't even tell me why, she just did it."
"I'm sure she had a good reason," Scott said.
Kurt gave a sigh, before he noticed that Kathy was sitting at their table.
"Why is she sitting here?" Kurt asked, "you know she has a book about us?"
Everyone just stared at Kathy, who pulled the book out of her bag.
"Ya, Kelly gave it to me," Kathy said, "he said something about it will help protect me."
"He can't do this," Jean complained, taking the book and looking through it.
"He seriously just gave it to you?" Scott asked.
"Ya," Kathy said, nodding her head.
Over at the brotherhood table, they had been watching everything the x-men were doing.
"That new girl is cute," Todd said.
"She's way out of your league," Pietro said.
"No she ain't," Todd whined.
"I'm gonn kill her," Steve said. He was the newest member of the brotherhood, he had red skin with spiked black hair.
"Why do you say that?" Lance asked, looking over at Kathy.
"Cause she is hiding and it's time that everyone knows who she is," Steve growled.
"Than lets do it now," Pietro gave an evil grin.
"He don't have the right to do this," Jean said.
"Than you should talk to the school board," Kathy said, "they could-"
Kathy never got to finish her sentence. Pietro came and grabbed Kathy's braid and sped off, pulling her by the hair out of the lunch room. The x-men quickly got up and ran after them. Pietro dragged her all the way to the football field.
"What the hell," Kathy yelled, quickly standing up.
"I'm sure you would like to know," Steve grinned, folding his arms.
"I should of known you would be here," Kathy said, rolling her eyes.
"Lets settle this," Steve said.
"If you want to embarrass yourself," Kathy grinned, "bring it on."
Steve charged toward her, while Kathy just stood there. He was right in front of her when she just put out her hand and he ran right into it. He fell to the ground, but quickly got up. He tried to punch Kathy but she blocked every move as if she wasn't even trying. The x-men finally got there and Jean used her powers to throw Steve back.
"Now what do you want?" Kathy asked.
"Just go away," Steve muttered.
"Okay little brother," Kathy said, "next time if you want something just come get me yourself."
Kathy turned around and left the football field, but the brotherhood and x-men stayed behind.
"What is wrong with you?" Scott asked, looking at Steve.
"Nothing is wrong with me," Steve said, "there is something wrong with her."
"You stil can't just attack someone," Jean said.
"That wasn't just anyone, it's my sister," Steve said, "she thinks she's so good, just cause she can hide in public, but she won't be able to forever."
The x-men didn't see Kathy the rest of the day. They went to the mansion to talk to Charles.
"Hey, can you see if this girl is a mutant?" Scott asked as they found Charles.
"She is," Charles said, "I have been getting readings all day. She doesn't seem to have much problem using her powers, but just let it be for now."
"Wait, we aren't going to get her on our team?" Jean asked, looking a bit shocked.
"Not yet," Charles said, "this one could be harder than you think, so for now all of you just let it be."
They all agreed to let it go and went on with their day. The next week went by without a single problem, though, Kathy had missed most of it. She was there today, but didn't talk to anyone during class. It was now lunch and Kathy was sitting at a table by herself. Kurt was the first one of the x-men to lunch today. He sat down next to her and she looked up at him with a smile.
"You know you could say something," Kurt said.
"Okay," Kathy said, "hello."
"That's not vhat I meant," Kurt said.
"Ya, but it's what you get," Kathy said.
"Okay, that's a start," Kurt said, nodding his head.
"Really? Me just saying hello is a start," Kathy said, "a start for what?"
"A start of a conversation," Kurt said.
"Why are you even here?" Kathy asked, looking at Kurt.
"It's a free country," Kurt said, "I can sit vhere I vant to."
"Ya, you can," Kathy grinned, "so if it's a free country than why don't you sit by your friends?"
"It's not like I have to," Kurt said.
"So, you just don't want to?" Kathy asked.
"No, that's not it," Kurt said.
"You just said that you don't have to sit by them and if that's not the case than you must not want to," Kathy said.
Kurt didn't say anything else. He finished his lunch and left. He walked down the hall and found Evan.
"She is so veird," Kurt said, "she found away around everything I said."
"That ain't weird, man," Evan said, "hey, next time you see her just say something confusing."
Kurt nodded his head and went to go find Kathy. He found her by her locker. He took a few deep breaths and walked over to her.
"Hello," Kurt said.
"Come back for more?" Kathy asked.
"You're very beautiful," Kurt quickly said.
Kathy froze there and just stared at Kurt for about a minute.
"Are you trying to ask me on a date?" Kathy asked.
"Yes," Kurt quickly said, "so how about it?"
"Sure," Kathy said, her voice sounding a bit sweeter now, "how about tonight?"
"Okay," Kurt said, "see at lets say 6?"
"That will be great," Kathy smiled.
Kathy closed her locker and walked off. Kurt stood there for a bit, before heading to his next class. He sat down by Evan.
"Thanks alot," Kurt muttered.
"For what?" Evan asked, looking confused.
"I did vhat you said and now have a date vith Kathy," Kurt sighed, "I don't know vhat to do."
"Just go and have a good time man," Evan said.
Kurt just nodded his head. They didn't seem to notice one of Amanda's friends had listened to them before pulling out her phone and texting Amanda.
The rest of the day seemed to go by just fine. Soon it was 6. There was a knock on the door of the mansion and Storm answered.
"You must be Kathy," Storm smiled, "come in."
Kurt was stil getting ready in his room. Evan and Scott were in there with him.
"Should I dress natural or go formal?" Kurt asked, pressing buttons on his watch.
"Dress comfortable man," Evan said, "it's just a first date, you don't need to dress all nice."
"You're also just going for a walk in the park," Scott said, "just relax."
"I'm trying to," Kurt sighed, "I'm just not sure how this is gonna turn out."
Kurt took a few deep breaths as he left the room and headed down stairs. Kathy was standing by the door. Kurt walked over to her and gave a nervous smile. Charles wheeled into the room.
"Have fun on your date," Charles smiled, "and keep out of trouble."
Kurt just nodded his head and they left. 'I do hope they don't do anything stupid,' Charles thought.
