X-Men:Evolution
Visits from the Past
Chapter 1


Evan, Scott, Jean, Kurt, Kitty, and Rogue were running late to class, again. They had been increasingly late during the last few weeks, Kurt had been having nightmares that woke everyone in the mansion up. The X-Men had been woken up four times that night, and had been too tired to do their homework. The group soon split up in the empty hallway as they each made their way to their classrooms.
Scott and Jean hurried to their class, "we so need to get some sleep..." Scott complained as they walked to class.
"Hopefully we will soon," Jean told Scott as she entered her classroom. Jean entered her classroom and took her seat. Her teacher put a detention slip on her desk and she filled it out without any arguing. The teacher started to start class and asked for everyonr to take out their homeowrk. Jean Grey took out her notebook and opened it to her homework that was not finished, yet.
"Miss Grey, I wil want to discuss your homework with you after class." The teacher seemed extemely disapointed in Jean and surprised that her homework was again not finished.
Soon class was over, Jean approached the teacher's desk. Her teacher looked up at her, clearly not happy with her current academic achievements. "Miss Grey, would you like to tell me what is going on?"
"Going on?" she asked pretending not to know what was talking about.
"You've been late everyday all this week and your homework hasn't been finished either."
"I'm sorry, I'll have my homework tommorrow." Jean promised her teacher.
"If I do not recieve all of your homework completed by tommorrow then I will be forced to call your guardian. I also expect you to be on time."
"Yes, Ms. Devins," Jean told her and then left the classroom to find Scott Summers waiting for her. "You're going to be late, Scott."
"It's okay, I just made it to first period. We can serve detention together," Scott told her smiling at her. She smiled back at him, "so? Devins giving you a hard time?"
"Yeah, how's your first period teacher taking all this?" Jean asked.
"Okay, she thinks that I'm just turning into a typical jock," Scott told her as they seperated to go to their classes.

Ororo Munroe was waiting for the X-Men after school in front of Bayville High. "Hey Auntie O," Evan called.
"Where are the other?" Ororo asked as she only saw Kurt approaching.
"Vay have detention," Kurt explained.
"You two must have gotten to class quickly then," Ororo told them signaling for them to get into the car. As they started to drive away Ororo decided to give them news the professor had asked her to pass along. "EVan's parents called and wanted to come by, so the professor decided to call Kurt's and Kitty's parents too. Hopefully we can make a party out of it."
"That's cool!" Evan exclaimed.
'Vay man! Vay cool."
"So, where are we going?" Evan asked his aunt.
"The professor believes that everyone could use some new nice clothes. So, we're going shopping," Ororo told them.
"Alright! Kitty's going to be so mad that she has detention," Kurt told them.
"Yeah," Evan agreed laughing alittle, "Jean, too. They love to shop!"
"I'm taking them later," Ororo told the boys.
"Ahhh!" they said together.
"Vut I vanted to tease them," Kurt told Ororo.
"Yeah, come on Auntie O be cool about this," Evan pleaded. "
"Five minutes," Ororo told them.
"Yes!"Kurt and Evan said in unison.
"This is going to be so much fun!" Evan told Kurt.
"Which part?" Ororo asked, "the shopping or the teasing?"
"Both," Evan told her.
"Vut teasing is vay more fun!" Kurt explained.

Jean, Scott, Rogue, and Kitty were sitting in detention. Mr. Mackenzie was in charge of detention, he was sleeping in his chair with his feet on his desk. At 4:30pm Principal Darkholme walked into detention to find Mr. Mackenzie still asleep. "Wake Up!" Prinicpal Darkholme yelled, which startled Mr. Mackenzie to falling off of his chair. "Detention is dismissed with the exception of Miss Grey." Darkholme stared at Jean with dismay, she watched as Scott, Rogue, Kitty, and Mr. Mackenzie left one by one. Darkholme closed the door and approached Jean, "why have you all been late?" Darkholme asked Jean.
"We've been having trouble sleeping, that's all," Jean tried to explain.
"Do not lie to me child!" Darkholme yelled at her.
"I am not," Jean told her. Darkholme shifted into Mystique. Standing over Jean, Jean stared in shock that she would confront her as Mystique at school. Jean was surprised that Mystique would take the chance of being seen by another student or falculty member.
"Tell me the truth. Is Xavier planning against me?" Mystique asked her, her temper rising.
"I truthfully don't know," Jean told her again. Mystique grabbed Jean and forced a device on the side of Jean's forehead. Jean screamed in pain and collapsed to the ground. Scott and the other X-Men ran in after hearing Jean scream, they watched as Mystique turned back into Principal Darkholme. Scott rushed to Jean's side, while the others kept their distance from Darkholme.
"What is this?" Scott asked her when he found the device on Jean's head.
"It's like a lie detector or it could be a memory eraser," Darkholme told them as she walked out of the detention room.
Scott and Kitty helped Jean to her feet. The X-Men left school, Scott drove everyone home in his red car. Jean was still disorientated and could not remove the device from her forehead. They had decided that it would be safer if they did not try to remove the device themselves. They arrived at the mansion and noticed that Ororo's car was missing.
Scott and Kitty helped Jean to the couch in the mansion. Xavier and Logan found the kids concerned with Jean, which began to worry Xavier. "Jean? Is something wrong?" Xavier asked.
"Mystique turned into her true form in front of Jean and put this thing on her," Scott told Xavier pointing to the device on Jean's head. "Then Jean screamed and we rushed in to find Jean on the floor. Mystique turned back into Principal Darkholme and just left and said that the device was either a lie detector or a memory eraser."
"What was she thinking?" Kitty asked, "we don't attack her at school."
She has a reason for it. She always does," Xavier told them.
"But what did she put on me?" Jean asked.
"I'm not sure," Xavier said examining the device. "We'll have to examine the device and you."
