Chapter One
Nine years later (18 year olds)
"Now,'' Magneto said, as he, Sabretooth, Pyro, Gambit, Toad, and Mystique walked down the road.'' How did the helicopter blow up?"
"Well,'' Toad said,'' There wos this fire.''
"And Pyro wanted to make it bigger,'' Gambit added.
"And part of the helicopter caught on fire,'' Pyro said, not noticing that they were blaming him.
"I tryed to put it out with slime,'' Toad said.
"But it didn't work,'' Gambit said.
"Then it just blew up,'' Pyro said.
A normal person would not of believed that, but with the brotherhoods three youngest members anything could of happened.
"We can stay in this small town,'' Magneto said.
"This place looks abandon,'' Mystique said.
Everything was silent, but there were people closing windows and doors.
"We can stay in this building,'' Magneto said.
Sabretooth kicked down the old door and they went in. They walked down a hall that had holes in the walls. Mystique pushed opened a door and they walked into what looked like a common room.
"What is this place?" Pyro asked.
Toad looked at some of the old toys on the floor. He saw some card and picked them up. He looked at the front of them. They had the letters K.B on them.
"We are in an orphanage,'' Toad said.
"How do you know?" Gambit asked.
"These,'' Toad said, showing them the cards.'' Were Kathy Blacks. An old friend. I lived here.''
"This is where you were?" Magneto asked,'' I wonder what happened to the place?"
"What happened to Kathy?" Gambit asked.
"She died,'' Toad said,'' Over nine years ago.''
"How?" Pyro asked.
Toad didn't answer. He walked into another room, which had lots of beds.
"She was killed by the x-men,'' Magneto said.
"The x-men,'' Pyro said,'' Killed a little girl. I never knew that.''
They went into the room, that Toad went into. He was sitting on one of the beds. He was holding a locket in his hands.
"What's that?" Gambit asked.
"Used to be hers,'' Toad said,'' But she gave it to me as a birthday present.''
"I wonder what will happen now,'' Mystique whispered.
X-mansion
The x-men were in the middle of training.
"Move team,'' Scott yelled.
They were fighting a big robot, that could shock you.
"That's enough for today,'' Charles said, turning off the machine.
Everyone left the danger room.
"Hey, Kathy,'' Scott said running over to a girl with blue skin and eyes, with black hair.'' Good team work today.''
"Thanks,'' Kathy said,'' So, when do I get to go on a mission?"
"Be patient,'' Scott smiled.
Just them Charles wheeled over to them.
"Scott,'' Charles said,'' The brotherhood are broken down and need help. Take Jean, Logan, Kathy, and Kurt with you and go pick them up.''
"Yes, sir,'' Scott said.
Charles wheeled away. Scott looked at Kathy, who was smiling.
"Come on,'' Scott said.
They got the others, went to the jet and took off. Scott and Jean were flying. Logan sat behind them, while Kathy sat on Kurts lap.
"Why are we taking two eighteen year olds?" Logan asked.
"The professor said to,'' Scott said,'' And they need to go on a mission anyway.''
"This is going to be cool,'' Kathy said.
"Ja,'' Kurt said,'' Our first mission together.''
"We are just helping them,'' Jean said,'' We are not fighting them.''
"Who are we up against?'' Kathy asked.
"Were up against no one,'' Jean said,'' But I'll tell you anyway. There is Magneto, Mystique, Sabretooth, Pyro, Gambit, and Toad.''
They were silent the rest of the trip. Well Jean, Scott, and Logan were silent. Kathy and Kurt were talking about how cool the mission was going to be. Scott landed the jet in a field and they got out. They walked into a town, that looked abandon.
"Odd,'' Kathy said,'' It's so quiet, but there are people here.''
"There in that building,'' Jean said.
"Okay,'' Scott said as they walked to the doors.'' Kurt, Kathy stay here. Jean will call you if we need any help.''
Kurt and Kathy nodded and the others went inside. They walked down a hall, into the common room and into the dorm room.
"Heard you needed some help,'' Logan said.
"Not from you,'' Sabertooth growled.
"You are planning something,'' Jean said, reading their minds.
"ATTACK,'' Magneto shouted.
Logan took Sabretooth, Scott took Mystique, and Jean took Gambit.
"There are not enough of you,'' Magneto said.
Jean called for Kurt and Kathy, who were there in a few seconds.
"You take Pyro,'' Kathy said.
Kurt nodded and attacked Pyro, who was helping Gambit.
"Take the girl,'' Magneto told Toad.
Toad grabed Kathy with his tongue and through her against the wall. She fell to the ground, but got up in less then a second.
"I'm sorry,'' Kathy said, teleporting behind him.'' I don't kiss on the first date.''
Kathy kicked him the back. He quickly got up. He jumped on her and pinned her to the ground. Toad smiled.' That was easy,' Toad thought. He meet her eyes. They stared at each other for awhile. He stood up and helped her up.
"Kathy,'' Toad said.
"Do I know you?" Kathy asked.
"Mortimer,'' Toad said,'' Don't you remember?"
Kathy thought for a second, before jumping up and kicking Toad acrossed the room.
"Come on Kathy,'' Kurt yelled.
Kathy quickly ran out of the room with the others. Toad stood up and looked at the others.
"What happened?" Magneto asked,'' You had her and you let her go. Why?"
"Tha' wos Kathy,'' Toad said.
"You mean your old friend?" Pyro asked,'' The one that died?"
"Ya,'' Toad said.
"I know her,'' Pyro said,'' Jean, Storm, and Cyclops said that a building fell on her and they found her. She was stil alive.''
"I don't get it,'' Toad said.
"Don't get what?" Mystique asked,'' Why she kicked you acrossed the room.''
X-jet
"I thought you said we were not going to fight, dad,'' Kathy said.
"I'm sorry,'' Scott said,'' It's not my fault. What did you find out about there plan Jean?"
"I didn't get much,'' Jean said,'' But we need to tell the professor. Kathy, are you alright?"
"I'm fine, mom,'' Kathy said,'' Just something that Toad guy said to me.''
"Vhat vas that?" Kurt asked.
"He said he knew me,'' Kathy said.
They were silent the rest of the trip. Jean and Scott looked a little worried about something. Kathy just sat on Kurts lap, trying to think if she ever met him in her past.
