Ok, I've had this idea all weekend and I've been DYING to write it! My insperation was 10 things I hate about you. I will add things from the movie, maybe the really good lines, but mostly some of the plot. I'll try my best to make sure it seems different from the movie. Well, here goes nothing.
Anna glared at the fields going past them in the car. Her mother, Raven, was driving her pick up truck all the way from Mississippi to New York. Joan Jett's bad reputation filled the car.
"Turn that crap off." Raven turned the radio channel to Opera.
"Like this is any better, Mama." Anna said rudely.
Raven's eyes softened. "Honey, please don't be-"
"What, mom? Upset? Oh, I'm past that point, mother. Believe me." Anna glared.
Raven sighed. "Anna, please, sweetie. You know-"
"Why you're doin' this? Uh, no. I don't." She turned away.
"It's because me and Victor are engaged and I know that you don't like him, so I thought it'd be best if you stayed with Uncle Logan until you decided...to, uh, cool off."
Anna rolled her eyes. "Yeah, like that'll happen. You're sendin' meh to a school where I don't know anyone. An' at Uncle Logan's? It's uncle Logan, mom."
"I know how he is, but he's just overprotective."
"I'm surprised you even know what that word means." Anna mutters.
"Don't talk to me that way, young lady. You are the 14 year old and I am still your mother and I will be until the day you die. Now, you won't be there alone. Your brother, Kurt, is there and your cousin Jean, too."
Anna groaned. "Not Jean. Mom, you know how much we dispise each other."
"Anna! Be nice to that poor girl. She just lost her parents in that fire."
"Fahne."
"And please don't embarass your family. Try to act civil and more nicer."
Anna laughed. "Oh, yes that will work out smoothingly."
"I'm serious, Anna. Remember when you hurt Billy from across the street? They shuned us for a week!"
Anna had mock sympathy on her face. "Oh, you poor, poor thing, you. I still say he had it coming and I still say he kicked himself in the cojones."
"Anna! For once be serious and stop with all the sarcastic remarks. Y'know you don't have to be so hostile and critical of every thing."
"Me the critical and hostile one? Mother, you are the most uptight person I have ever met. I lost a lot of respect for you when you got engaged to Victor." Anna glares and blows at the white bangs framing her face.
"Can we please leave Victor out of this! He hasn't even done anything to you!"
Anna seethed with anger. "You are very hypicritical. Has anyone ever told you that?"
"No, because some people actually respect and appreciate me."
"Oh, who. Your li'l sabertooth, Vicky?" Anna said mocking peppiness.
"You know, I don't want our last converstion for God knows how long, to end in a fight."
"That brings a good point, mama. How long am I gonna be here?"
"I don't know...Maybe, 24 months, at the least. That's not a lot-"
"Mother! That's 2 years!"
Raven becomes silent before she smiles. "Oh, look, we're here."
Logan's house is a 2 story house with a pool in the back and a cool basement.
"Perfect." Anna rolls here eyes and gets out of the car.
"Stripes! I missed ya." Logan comes up and hugs her. She hugs him back, both careful of her skin.
"Hiya, uncle Logan." Anna smiles at her uncle and the moment is ruined when they hear a whiny, shrilly voice.
"ANNNNNNNNNNNNNAAAA BANANA!" Jean runs to her and Anna groans.
She really wants to change her name.
Jean hugs her and Anna pats her back.
"Hello, Jeannie." Anna says flatly.
"ZOMG! It's been, like, so boring here! Yay! We can do each other's hair and make up. We can go to the mall-"
"Stop. Right there. As exciting as that all sounds, I am usually too busy slaturing and butchering young animals." Anna drawls out. You should've seen Jeans face.
"Th-that's not creepy at all." She laughs nervously and backs away.
"Anna tell your mother good bye." Raven says by the car.
Anna rolls her eyes and walks to her. Raven has her arms out wide, but Anna just takes her bags and walks away. She doesn't even look at Raven when she says, "Bye."
Raven sighs and gets in the car and wasn't seen there again.
"Will you slauter me too if I show you to your room?" Jean asks.
"No, I only kill animals. But I'm still willing to experiment with humans." Anna threatens.
They walk around and Anna's room is on the top floor and there's a huge balcony.
"Wow, this is mah room?" Anna asks. Jean smiles and nods.
"I'm really glad you're staying here, Rogue. I always wanted a sister."
"Rogue?" Anna asks.
"You seem to keep to yourself and you strike me as a loner. Rogue." Jean smiles and leaves.
"Huh, I like it." She says as she unpacks her bags. Grandmothers quilt, picture of her and Kurt, picture of her and Irene, all of her Rick Riordan and Gregory Maquire books, movie copy of The Ring, all of her green, purple, and black clothes.
Yeah, that was about it.
XXXXXXXLater the next dayXXXXXXX
Anna, who won't let herself be called anything but Rogue now, and Jean were walking down the halls of Xavier High.
"Well, I'll give y'all this. Y'all yankees sure know how ta make 'em." Rogue says.
Jean smiles. "What's a yankee?"
"Um, it's a,uh, song. Y'know Yankee Doodle went to town..." Rogue lied.
"Oooooh! I still don't get it. Ah, must be a southern thing, huh?" Jean asked.
Rogue started laughing. "Yep, yer totally right, Jeannie."
Wow, was this chick blonde.
"JEEEEEEEAAAAAAN!"
Jean turned around and they saw some Japanese girl, "TAAAARRRRYYYYNNNN!"
"Jean, who's the newkid?" Taryn asked when she came by them.
"Oh this is An-OW! MY TOE!" Jean yelped when Rogue stomped on her foot.
"Ah'm Rogue. Nahce ta meetcha." Rogue said, her accent thicker.
"Um, why do you speak like that?" Taryn asked.
"Oh, what? Y'all notherners don't lahke tha way Ah tahlk?" Rogue asked.
"No, it's not that. It's just unique."
"Oh, well in that case. Well, I got my accent from Mississippi." Rogue said proudly.
"How nice. Jean, you coming? Brad and Brock are in a fight again." Taryn said.
"ZOMG! I am, like, so there!" Jean skipped off and waved goodbye.
Rogue rolled her eyes and looked at her scheduel. Crap, it looked real hard. Some chick in red and black, with red and black hair came by.
"Um, hi. I'm new here, my name's Rogue." Rogue smiled at her. The girl smiled back.
"I'm Wanda, and don't worry. This institute may look big and bad, but once you get the jist of everything, it's just like home. Lemme show you around." Wanda said and Rogue followed.
They got to talking. Rogue liked The Killers, Wanda liked Avril Lavigne. Rogue and Wanda both enjoyed the play Wicked. Rogue wanted to become a writer, Wanda wanted to be a professional musician. But Wanda had a well known obsession. She was obsessed with Joker and Harley Quinn.
They were in a deep discussion about the teachers.
"There's Ms. Munroe, she's a real sweetheart. There's Coach Logan, the P.E./Health teacher. Watch out for him-"
"He's my uncle, Wands. I live with him now." Rogue interupted.
Wanda looked surprised. "So that means you're related to-"
"Jean Grey? Yep." Rogue sighed. Wanda put a hand on her shoulder.
"Dude, that sucks! Well, back on topic, there's Mr. McCoy. He's blue."
"Why's he sad?" Rogue asked.
Wanda laughed. "No, I mean he is literatly blue. He's got fur and everything. A really beastly figure. But real sweet and kind. He teaches Math, Science, and also English."
"Wow, real smart guy, huh?"
"The smartest man I know. There's his opposite, 'Principle' Kelly."
"I though Professor Xavier was principle."
Wanda nodded. "He is. Kelly just has this thing in his head where he thinks that he's the principle or something. And he's a real biggot. He hates mutants, which I think is just horrible. It's not our-I mean their fault they were born that way."
"Wanda, are you a mutant?" Rogue asked.
Wanda was silent for a moment before sighing, "Yes."
"Good. Because I am too."
Wanda got excited. "Really? What's your mutation."
"My mutation is more like a curse. I can't touch anyone without killing them."
"Wow, that sucks. I'm a witch. Watch!" Wanda started hex bolting a trash can where all the popular kids were hanging out.
"HEY!" They yelled.
"Whoops. My bad." Wanda and Rogue snickered.
Ok, Rogue is fourteen for the next few chapters then she is back to 17 or 18. Remy will eventually come in and this story will get alot more interesting once a few boring things are put in place, promise. If you could give me a few ideas, I wouldn't mind at all. Point out a few errors, anything.
