-Anjie-Kun Out!

Chapter 1:

It was just another ordinary day at the Xavier institute. It was the middle of the day, and Outside on the front lawn of the manor, Hank and Logan were training the younger members while the Professor and Storm watched. "Come on kids! Stay focused!" Shouted Logan, instructing Cannon Ball and Bobby as they both tried to avoid lasers and saws being thrown their way, Magma attempted to melt her share of the onslaught, but only ducked and tried to cover her head. Every saw missed her, so she looked back for a second and sighed, only to be struck by a metal ball that was hurdling towards her way. 'BANG!' "Ow." She said weakly and casually as she lied face -down on the ground like a rag doll. "You're out Kid!" Logan said as he pointed a thumb backwards. Hank got a puzzled look on his face as the kids continued their training. He leaned over towards the Professor and held up a hand to his mouth to whisper.

"Charles, have you noticed that the kids are a little- off today? I mean, they're usually rowdier and more focused than this." He was right. Some of the students seemed more- distracted today. Even when training the X-Men, it appeared as though some people weren't exactly on their game. Jean and Scott were pretty distracted [by each other], Kurt was a little flawed, but more focused than the couple, Then there was; Kitty who was the worst of them all, she was the first person out. Rogue was the only one who seemed to be totally on point.

So it was a bit strange that everyone was so preoccupied, nothing a telepath like Charles Xavier couldn't solve, Although he didn't need his mind reading abilities to understand this epidemic, just his calendar.

He chuckled a little and did his signature hand-folding-of-wise-contemplation, and nudged toward Hank's direction, "Well Hank, what else would you expect when it is eve of Valentine's day?" Hank gave a long and comprehending 'aaaah' as he looked back to the students, "Young love, I see, that would explain it." he said. "Yes, they must be anxiously awaiting the big day, and anticipating what get for their potential sweethearts." Said Storm.

Logan sneered a rolled his eye towards the other three instructor's direction without turning his head, "Well if that's the case, then it's a pretty stupid reason. Almost lett'n themselves get killed in a combat exercise just cuz' their heads have turned to mush over some crummy holiday?" Logan was quite irritated by this, but it did make sense. The young ones were all caught up in the wonders of love and a lot of them were as light as a feather, but dopier than weed.

After clenching his eyebrows and sighing in shame, Logan decided to shut off the equipment and stop the exercise, especially when the explosions and screaming started. "Alright Ya' guys trainin' session's over!" The young ones simultaneously looked up with surprised faces as if to say 'We were training?' Even so they were all dismissed.

As the kids were walking back towards the mansion someone was coming out… It was Gambit. Yes; the same Gambit who was once one of Magneto's Acolytes, the same Gambit who kidnapped Rogue, was now an X-man and was now looking forward to seeing some action only to find a group of singed and weirdly excited kids walking by.

"I guess, I missed the show." He said to the instructors as he did his signature wall-lean beside the door. Logan would normally be appalled by the ex-thief's presence but he's been an X-man for over a month and proved his loyalty enough not to experience Wolverine's 'Adimantium Rage' [Not that Logan wasn't tempted]. "Trust me Bub, Ya' didn't miss anything. Just a butt-load of failure and disappointment." The Cajun got a confused look on his face as he pondered the children's chatty and happy behavior, verses Logan's talk of a big-fat-letdown. Storm put a hand on Gambit's shoulder and smiled comfortably, "The kids were a little 'Love-Struck' today, so Logan decided to cut the session short. She said.

Gambit got a wide, enthusiastic smile on his face as chuckled out of amusement. "Ah-ha-ha, L'amore, It is Valentine's eve, Now I see what all dat gigglin' and fumblin' was all 'bout." He said. "So Gambit, who are you planning to romance into being your Valentine?" Storm asked sarcastically, yet some how seriously. The charming gentleman just smiled with confidence and gave a swift, honorable bow, and put a finger to his lips as he walked back into the mansion silently.

In the kitchen…

Jean and Scott were in the standing across from each other at the counter talking about their training exercise this morning. Jean was giggling, and teasing about Scott's loss of focus when he got hit by a car in the simulation. [He was too busy staring at her].

While they were chatting and somewhat flirting, Kitty was making Valentine cookies for everyone, or at least attempting to; [She wasn't exactly the best cook]. She looked back and pouted in playful annoyance, "Hey! don't get all mushy just yet guys, Valentine's day isn't till like, tomorrow!" Kitty said. "Don't worry Kitty, our brains haven't turned to goo just yet." Scott said with a smile. It was obvious that he and Jean were dating, and with the most lovey-dovey holiday only a day away, it was hard for them to not be all coupley and romantic.

Kitty's Valentine was unknown, but it was obvious she had someone in mind sense she was probably the worst one in the simulation today. As she began stirring a bowl of cookie doe she asked, "So, what are you guys doing for Valentine's Day? Are you going out on a date?" She mocked. By this time Rogue was walking into the Kitchen. "As a matter of fact yeah Kitty, we are. We're going to the 'Lounge' de Romancer' for dinner."

Rogue got a crabby look that almost resembled jealousy. She at one point had romantic feelings for Scott that were obviously unrequited, although she managed to keep her infatuation hidden. However, that wasn't the source of her jealousy now, it was the fact that she didn't really have any one that she could honestly say she wanted to be her Valentine. "That sounds fancy!" Kitty said with glee. "And expensive. Ya' sure You can afford it?" said an edgy, yet concerned Rogue. "Don't worry, I have a enough saved up, it'll be great." Scott said as he was smiling and gazing at Jean as he held her romantically by the hands as they walked out of the kitchen. Rogue just rolled her eyes while looking into the fridge. Kitty walked over and leaned into her.

"So Rogue, what are you and Gambit doing?" Rogue jolted a little and slightly blushed. She had almost forgotten about Gambit being a new resident to the institute. Apparently because of the fact that Rogue was so 'friendly' with Gambit ever since their little 'Adventure in New Orleans', Kitty started making assumptions and hints that Rogue and Gambit might have a thing for each other, especially when he's practically always hitting on her.

" I'm, not plannin' to do anythin' for Valentine's Day, accept readin' up on a news series of 'Gothic Romance: Tales of the Black Rose '." Rogue responded as she pulled out a personal sized bottle of apple juice. Kitty had her arms crossed with a concerned and childish pout. "Oh my gosh, you're gonna just spend, the most romantic day of the year, sitting in bed reading a book, that's like so lame Rogue."

"I agree." Said a smooth sly, and sexy voice from the entrance of the Kitchen, which almost made Rogue choke on her drink.

It was Gambit doing his wall-lean, and shuffling playing cards. He had his gaze locked on Rogue as she turned her head while wiping her mouth. He finally broke from his lean and stood up to face the girls with a fist on his hip.

"A lovely lady like you shouldn' be spendin' Valentine's Day readin' 'bout romance Cherie, you should be experience'n it." He said pointing in Rouge's direction.

Rogue was starting to get use to the Cajun's constant 'pick-up' tactics. He's been going at it since he first joined the team. She wasn't phased by his suave and charismatic demeanor, [at least not out loud]. So she would always counteract his smooth-talk with a witty and heated remark.

"Thanks, but I'd rather not experience anythin'. I don' want too much of an eventful day tommor'a." Kitty's hopeful smile that wanted Rogue to change her mind, turned into another childish pout. She nudged the taller southern girl in the stomach as she tried to take another swig of juice.

"Ow! What?" Rogue said as she started rubbing the side of her stomach, only to have Kitty answer with a bratty arm-crossing and a broad angry face that practically told her

'You better change your mind'. However, she wouldn't be doing that any longer since Gambit was walking toward their direction. At this point Jean decided to return to the kitchen to make sure Rogue wouldn't strangle Kitty.

Gambit took Rogue's gloved hand and kissed the back of it gently. Rogue smiled a little as she turned her head to the opposite direction of Kitty trying not to look so love struck by the southern Gentleman. "Ma' Cherie, let me take you out tommor'a evenin'." Rogue just continued to keep her head turned away face flushed and eyes big and embarrassed. When Gambit had finally let go of her hand she stepped back slightly and used the same hand to fiddle with her hair, as she turned all the way around.

The red-eyed man smiled triumphantly and leaned in for the kill,… But then-, "Uh, guys, I hate to interrupt but, we have a problem." Everyone looked back with concern.

In the living room…

*SOOOOOOOOB*… Kurt was on the couch crying continuously with Boom-Boom trying to comfort him. [and she wasn't doing a very good job at it]. "Don't cry fuzz ball, you'll get through this, I'll hook you up with one of my friends." This only made Kurt cry even louder. *SOOOOOOOOB*!- "Boom-Boom you're not helping. Kurt what's the matter?" asked Jean who was giving a slight and gentle touch to the poor, sad mutant's shoulder as he continued to Sob. He finally lifted his head and turn toward Jean,

"Oh Jean, It's awful,…*sniff*- I was in a chat room with-with Amanda, and- she says…*sniff, that she's with someone else now!" *SOOOOOOOOB*! All the girls: Kitty, Rogue, Magma, Boom-Boom, and Jean looked so sad for the little blue elf. He looked like crap, he couldn't stop crying, and it was all because of an unfortunate heartbreak. Gambit also looked a bit sorry for the guy, but Scott looked more annoyed than sorry. "Kurt, you and Amanda broke up months ago." He said as everyone else made glares at him for being so insensitive. "I Know Scott,- *Hoooonk*…" He blew his nose into a tissue. "…*sniff*, but I didn't think she'd move on so soon,…*sniff* I'm gonna spend Valentine's day all alone, *sniff*- It's so not fair!" At this point there was no reasoning with the little monkey, so Scott just turned and left, "*sighs*, I'll go get the ice cream. He said turning back. "I'd like vanilla please.-*sniff*. Kurt responded before blowing his nose into another tissue.

In Cerebro…

The Professor was consulting his mutant tracking device to locate any mutants that might be in need. He had been at this for quite a while but there wasn't a mutant that seemed to require the aide of the good Professor X and his X-Men. Just then, Hank walked in hoping that there was something he could do to help out. "So Charles, any one out there?" He asked with a great deal of concern. "Not yet, So far Cerebro has not picked up on anyone we can help at the moment." Hank gave reassuring smile to his dear friend. "Don't worry Charles, I'm sure that…-" Cerebro started making the alarm, which signaled the revelation of a new mutant. "Well that was convenient." A new mutant was finally revealed, and like every mutant being revealed the X-Men must go to help them and recruit them, if they wish to be.

Upstairs in Rogue's and Kitty's room…

Kitty was busy signing a Valentine's card for her parents while Rogue was starting up on her new book. "Come on Rogue, like seriously, why don't you want to go out with Gambit tomorrow? He's totally into you." Rogue just rolled her eyes and turned the little half-pint, "Look, first of all; that flirting thing is just how Gambit and I communicate, okay? Second, I don't want to end up puttin' him into a coma by accident if things really do get all romantic, I can't risk it."

Rogue said as she turned back to her book with a discouraged look in her eyes. Kitty's signature pout turned into a sad frown. Two of her dear friends were gonna be all alone on the day of love, and she wished there was something she could do about it.

Suddenly there was a knock at the door before Kitty said, "Come in!" It was Jean, "You guys! The Professor wants us all to meet in the living room, Cerebro just picked up on a new mutant." The girls got there game faces on, and soon; Rogue was getting up from the bed and Kitty had already phased through the floor.

Jean had already made it halfway down the hall by the time Rogue had made it out the door only to end up run into the chest of-…You guessed it; Gambit.

He was suited up in his long coat which had been absently worn the whole day, He had one hand on his hip and his staff in the other, and a craved smile on his face as he looked down at Rogue. "What do you want now Gambit? We have to go-…" He held up a finger a safe distance from her lips, and shushed quietly. "I know Cherie, I was just on my way myself." He looked so charming and attractive, that she briefly got all smitten by him. Jean looked back and said, "Come on guys, lets go!" The moment of going 'Gaga' ended, and soon Rogue snapped back to reality when the Cajun held out a hand and bowed. "Shall we?" Rogue rolled her eyes upwards and gave a playfully angry smile, "Quit all that suckin' up and lets just move." She shoved his face sarcastically and ran on down toward Jean as Remy watched her with a smile on his face before he too began to walk into the same direction.

In the living room…

"This mutant is a young girl named Anya, she has been sighted all around Europe and is now at the verge of being hunted down." Announced Professor X. "That's horrible." Said Jean. "Yes, apparently the locals are under the assumption that she is some kind of- demonic being, and wish to harm her." The older man said as he cuffed his hands together under his chin, leaning forward. "Kinda reminds me of how we found Kurt." Scott added, making Rogue notice something, "Speakin' of which, where is Kurt?" Everyone looked back and forth to see if anyone might have a clue where he might be. "Oh dear, we need Kurt for this mission, he might be able to reason with the girl, considering they both have shared experiences. Does anyone know where he might be?" While everyone was shaking their heads, and saying 'no', Jean began to ponder, and finally got a realization, and said, "I think I know."

In the den…

We find Kurt watching a German Soap opera while sitting on the couch eat his sixth tub of vanilla ice cream, wearing his pajamas under a robe and had a box of tissues next to him. "Kurt! Where are you, we have a mission!-Kurt?" Jean called frantically looking for their final member. "Kurt?" "Look at him he may be a lousy, good-for-nothing jerk-, BUT AT LEAST HIS GIRLFRIEND LOVES HIM!- *SOOOOOOOOB*! Jean rolled her eyes upward realizing that Kurt's heartbreak-depression was getting a little annoying. "Come on Kurt, the Professor is looking for you." She levitated the little fuzzy, sobering mess and led him out of the room.

Back in the living room…

Jean brings Kurt to the Professor and gently places him on the ground. "Oh, Professor; I don't really think- *hic* I'm up-*sniff*- for a mission right now. I think I'd rather just stay behind on this one." The Professor sighed understanding that Kurt was going through a pretty complicated situation. He wanted to honor his wishes and not risk sending out in such a crappy condition and jeopardize their efforts to save this mutant, however unfortunately, he was greatly needed for this.

"Kurt, I understand that you are in a very- difficult state, but this girl is in danger. Everyone; I must inform you all, that not only are mobs of hunters are after young Anya, there are others. Scientists who wish to use her mutation for experiments of some sorts. We must help this girl and I think you might be our best bet to do so Kurt."

The wise older man's words seeped deep into Kurt's mind. He was miserable, but that didn't mean he should risk the harm of an innocent mutant in need just cause he's having a lousy day. "Come on Kurt, this girl is counting on us. She's being hunted down like some animal, and you could be our only chance to persuade her to join the team. Don't you wanna help her?" asked Jean. Kurt looked downward and sniffed again, he thought for a moment and finally wiped his nose and smiled a little.

"O-okay,- Yeah I'll help!" he had finally gotten his mo-jo back and was becoming more ecstatic. "That's the Kurt we know!" cheered Kitty, "Thanks Kurt, trust me you'll feel a lot better afterwards, I know it!" Said Scott as he patted a hand on his back. Kurt's smile began to strengthen, as did the confidence in his eyes as his friends encouraged him. "Thanks guys, I think I'm starting to feel a little better." Kurt said. "I'm very proud of you Kurt. Now everyone; suite up, Storm, Logan; Ready the Jet." The Professor ordered as the team got their game faces on, [including Kurt]. " This is so exciting! So professor, where are is this new mutant now?" The Professor opened his mouth to answer, but soon got an 'Oh Crap' look on his face. "…EEEESH-…uuum…"
