A/N: My first X-Men fic. I don't really know enough to write but still… I seriously hope I don't mess up. Comments are greatly welcomed and I'm really sorry if I got anything wrong.
1. Introductions
"… And I hope all of you will put all past misunderstandings behind you and welcome our new students."
The new students were apparently the members from the Brotherhood. The Brotherhood House burnt down and since Mystique has as usual, disappeared; the brotherhood boys were left with no choice but to move in to the Xavier Institute.
Rogue mentally scanned the newcomers, she knew the brotherhood guys, – Lance, Pietro, Freddy, Toad – in fact they were her closest friends back then. That was, until she decided to move to the Institute.
"So Scott shall show you rooms now and if you have any problems, please don't hesitate to look for me," With that, the Professor was done with the introductions. "Rogue and Tabitha, I would like a word with you, the rest of you are dismissed"
The rest of the students obeyed and silently left the room as Scott led the boys to their rooms, leaving Rogue to be alone with the Professor.
"Rogue, Tabitha, I know you used to be with the Brotherhood, so I would like to know if either of you are uncomfortable with the current arrangement"
Rogue looked at Tabitha; she could see that they were thinking the same thing. "No Professor, in fact, we would be more than glad to make them accustomed to living here." Tabitha replied him almost instantaneously with a wide grin on her face. She was glad that the boys were here, really glad. The X-men were fun but they can be real boring at times, with the boys around, this party called life is finally getting started.
"Lance and Fred will be together while Todd, you'll get your own room. As for you Pietro, you'll be sharing a room with one of our newer students."
"What?-Why-must-I-share-a-room-with-some-freak?-Why-not-Toad?-Or-Lance-or-Freddy?" Pietro spat out. He didn't want to be stuck in some room with some unknown X-geek.
"Oh. Don't worry. Besides, you know him too! He's quite safe." Scott reassured him. "But that is, until you light a fire or something." He murmured under his breath. Just days at the institute and that guy was already wreaking up a storm. A firestorm.
"Hey, Johnny boy! Your dorm-mate's arrived. Open up!" Scott bellowed outside the door. Pietro leaned beside the door and smirked. He looked on with amusement at how annoyed Cyclopes was due to his roomie's reluctance to open up. He didn't like waiting, but if waiting meant getting Scott aggravated, he was willing to wait.
'Johnny. I'm sharing a room with some kid?' Pietro was quite bothered by the thought of sharing a room with some pesky child; hence he started thinking of ways to change roommates. Or even better, convince the Professor to put him in a room all by himself.
Just then, his chain of thoughts was broken by a blast of flames from the room, forcing Cyclopes to back off against the wall. "Scott dearest, didn't I ever warn you NOT to call me that!" venom dripped from his words as a boy in his late teens stepped out into full view.
'Pyro!' Pietro's eyes opened wider as he saw the former Acolyte before him. His eyes a cold steel blue, blonde hair dripping wet and he was naked safe for a towel around his waist.
"Allerdyce! What was that for?" Scott stood in front of the young Australian and pushed a finger accusingly on him.
"Respect my dear Scott. I don't go around calling you 'Scotty Boy' do I?" He returned Cyclopes the accusing look, only thing was, unlike Pyro just now, Scott had a flushed look on his face. "Anyway, so he's my roommate?" Pyro shrugged a look in Pietro's direction, water still dripping off him.
'It's 5 degrees Celsius outside, doesn't he feel cold?' Pietro thought with a frown. He didn't like the fact that he's going to be sharing a room with one of his Dad's ex-henchmen but then, it was way better than some of the other annoying youngsters around.
A/N: Okay, comments people? I serious hope you guys like it. Any suggestions received will be really welcomed. Please please review. /
I know the cartoon shows him with brownish-orange coloured hair but well, I still prefer Johnny with blonde hair. A piece of Fanart I once saw made me bias. So sue me.
