A/N: Hope you enjoy and I own only my own character, I decided to throw one in, hehe
"Lance, shut up," I heard Rogue order as Lance continued to talk endlessly, I narrowed my light brown eyes as he talked louder.
"Ava-loser!" I snapped, "I am usually a calm and rational person but, if I hear one more word escape that annoying little mouth of yours you will regret it, do I make myself very clear?!"
Everyone gaped at me, I was generally very quiet and calm, there was just something about Lance that made me snap, he was so goddamned annoying it made me want hurt something very badly, namely him.
"There's no need to be so, like, rude," Kitty cut in as Lance and I glared at each other, I rolled my eyes with a sigh and ignored her, staring out the window of the X-Jet.
"There's no need to be so, like, preppy," Wanda spat at Kitty who looked hurt.
I ignored them and continued staring moodily out the window at the clouds, it's a very long story to why The Brotherhood was with us X-Kids, we had for some strange reason joined forces and were going to a school called Sky High to interact with more people of our age with Super Powers, plus the Principle of the school was Xavier's niece or something or other and they'd come up with this plan to create a bond between the schools.
This was going end up badly, I knew it, anyway, I guess I should introduce myself, I'm Zelena, Wolverine a.k.a Logan's daughter, I have his healing ability and somehow the adamantium skeleton as well as the claws, I usually keep to myself but cut in and try and smooth things over if an argument gets out of hand, never snap at anyone, until today, man, these next two years are going to be long and difficult.
(Their First Day at Sky High)
"Calm down, Rogue," I soothed as my best friend rifled through her closet for something that covered her skin completely in case she accidentally touched someone at Sky High, "wear what you usually wear, that works, just be careful not to let the clothes rip or anything."
She nodded and sighed as she carefully checked every piece of her pale skin was covered, I smoothed my blue mini skirt guiltily and ran a hand through my red hair as I looked down at my bare legs that were an ivory colour like the rest of my body, I wasn't fat or skinny, I was in the middle, I wasn't tall or short, I was in the middle, I was basically average and generally ignored, just how I liked it.
"Lance, like, stop being so totally annoying!" we heard Kitty shout angrily, "and give me back my bag, you, like, butthead!"
"Nice insult," Rogue muttered dryly, rolling her dark eyes, "so very original."
I laughed slightly and slung my blue bag onto my shoulder as Rogue and I headed downstairs, I placed a hand on a frustrated Kitty's shoulder as I stepped off the bottom stair and held my hand out to Lance to give me the bag.
"Look," I sighed, "it's bad enough we have to share this house, go to school together and generally spend all our time together but, at least try and make it easier for all of us, we're going to be here for two years Lance, so give Kitty her bag back, please."
He rolled his onyx eyes before placing the bag in my hand and digging his hands into his jean pockets moodily, I smiled slightly and handed Kitty her bag as Wanda and Toad moved down the stairs, Kitty hugged me quickly before we all left the house and headed for the bus stop to Sky High.
"Hey, baby cakes, wanna sit by me?" Toad grinned at Wanda who grimaced and punched him over the back of the head, he whimpered and trailed behind us gloomily.
"Wanda, you okay?" I asked softly as she glared at the ground, "you seem kind of down."
She looked startled that I'd bothered caring, "I'm fine," she shrugged, running a hand through her short red and black hair, "just nervous, I've never actually been to a proper school before."
"At least these guys are like us," I laughed lightly, "the last high school I was in everyone hated me because of what I could do, even though I never actually did anything wrong, have you heard about this Power Placement thing? Sounds stupid to me personally, what do you think?"
"I, like, totally agree," Kitty cut in as Wanda nodded, "though I think all of us will, like, totally make Hero, except maybe Toad boy over there."
"He probably will make Hero," I replied as Toad looked hurt, "Lance's power won't work in the school though considering he needs to be on earth to activate it."
"What do you mean on earth?" Lance frowned as we came to a stop, "you saying this school is in the sky or something?"
"Yeah, Professor Xavier told me," I answered, "so just tell the teacher what your power is and if they don't believe you then we'll back you up."
Why did the Brotherhood people looked rather shocked that I was going to stick up for one of them? My mom had taught me that everybody deserved a second chance to do right and this was their second chance, I was going to help them if they wanted me to.
"Um, hi," a new voice broke in as Lance opened his mouth, "I'm guessing you're the new students Principle Powers told us about."
"Yeah," I smiled, turning to a red headed girl and a boy with light brown hair, "I'm Zelena, you?"
"Layla, and this is Will," the girl smiled back, "Zelena's an unusual name, never met anyone called that."
"Yeah, it's Greek," I grinned, "my mom loves Greek history and decided to name her daughter with a Greek name."
"I'm Kitty Price," Kitty said, smiling away happily.
"Rogue," Rogue nodded.
The others stayed silent.
"This is Wanda, Lance and Toad - wait, where's Toad?" I asked, looking round as the weird little person was nowhere to be seen.
"Maybe he's been run over," Wanda suggested almost hopefully.
"Yo, sweet cheeks!" we heard him cry, we looked up and saw him hanging from a tree by his tongue, how he could still speak I'll never know.
"Toad, get down before you're seen," I hissed, grabbing his foot and yanking him down, he yelped and I saw splinters covering his abnormally long tongue, I grimaced, "that is so gross, anyway, this is Toad."
Layla and Will nodded, trying not to let their disgust show as Toad plucked the splinters out of his tongue, Wanda whacked him over the back of the head as he clung to her leg, I sighed and rolled my eyes then froze as a new guy appeared.
The new guy was so hot!
Wait, bad thoughts, shove bad thoughts away Zelena, not here for relationships and daddy would kill him and you, good Zelena.
"Why is there a toad pulling wood from his tongue?" the new guy inquired, raising one eyebrow as he looked Layla and Will, "and who are the rest of these people?"
"We're, like, Kitty, Zelena, Rogue, Wanda, Lance and Mr Icky," Kitty grinned, she so liked him, tall, dark and handsome, hey, did Lance look jealous?
"Kitty, shut up," he growled, folding his arms over his chest and glaring into space, "we don't even know if he's going to our school."
An argument broke out and the guy, Will and Layla watched with confusion as Kitty and Lance fired insults at each other.
"Guys, cool it," I said, stepping between them, "we have to try not to rip each other's throats out and that'll be one hell of a lot easier if you just try and get along instead of sniping at one another every five seconds, so please, just try and be nice to each other."
"And get of all the sexual tension," Rogue cut in with a smirk, they both blushed and I giggled slightly before turning to the new guy.
"Sorry, they argue all the time," I smiled, running a hand through my hair, "like Kitty said, I'm Zelena, you?"
The new guy looked at me.
And looked.
And he still looked.
"Are you going to answer the question?" I asked slowly, raising an eyebrow, he raised one straight back at me, man, this guy was more annoying than Kurt on a sugar high, "jesus, you're more annoying than Kurt on a sugar high," I muttered, folding my arms over my chest and sighing.
"Is that even, like, possible?" Kitty gasped, "I mean, Kurt is, like, totally annoying on a sugar high, he, like, dances on the table, sometimes, like totally, naked."
Everyone was just looking at her.
"How many times did she just 'like' and 'totally' in one sentence?" the guy said, his dark eyes narrowed in a glare at Kitty.
"Um, I, like totally, don't care," Wanda shot at him, her own eyes glaring at Toad, who was clinging to her leg and 'serenading' her.
"Seconded," Lance nodded.
"Thirded," I added.
"Fourthed," Rogue said.
"I love you baby!!!" Toad screeched in an attempt at singing.
Man, my calmness and rationality was vanishing on the spot, Toad couldn't sing to save his life, I clamped a hand over his mouth.
"That's enough serenading, Toad," I said quietly, "I don't think it's working anyhow, so be quiet and think of another plan to win Wanda's heart, okay?"
He nodded and I released him as the bus pulled up, we all climbed on and Rogue yanked me into a seat next to her while Kitty was forced to sit next to Toad as Wanda sat next to Lance, Will and Layla sat together and in front of Rogue and me and the guy sat behind us.
"What's your name?" Kitty asked him, smiling brightly at him.
Don't think that's going to work, he doesn't seem like the kind of guy to give over when a preppy girl sends him a big smile.
He ignored her.
I was right.
She looked sad and turned to me, Rogue instantly began talking to me and Kitty cut in every so often, we had a lovely conversation when two straps crossed over each of our chests.
"What's going on?" Kitty frowned.
"We're going to fly," I shrugged, "the Professor told me, it's nothing."
Kitty's face paled, what was up with her? She flew in the X-Jet all the time, she didn't mind that.
"It'll be fine," I said soothingly, "I'm sure it'll be like the X-Jet when it's in the middle of a battle admittedly if what Professor Xavier said was true."
"But, I don't like the X-Jet in the middle of battle!" Kitty yelped, we were nearing the end of a bridge, shit, breathe Kitty, breathe, "no, no, no, we're going to, like totally die!!"
"We're not going to die," I assured, thinking of ways to calm her down, "um, Kitty, close your eyes, think of your favourite song and sing it in your mind, that'll distract you, okay?"
She nodded and her blue eyes closed, her lips began mouthing some words and I sighed in relief.
"Nice work," Rogue nodded, she had nerves of steel, the bus plunged off the edge of the bridge and Toad screamed, I guess he didn't have nerves of steel.
"Toad, stop screaming!" I heard Wanda snap, Kitty was singing out loud now in order to block out the screams of the guy next to her.
Toad silenced and the occasional whimper escaped his lips, good thing Wanda ordered him to shut up, he only ever listened to her orders, sometimes mine, mainly because I was nice to him.
Everyone was staring at us new kids, Rogue and I rolled our eyes and smiled as the bus landed, we stood and got off, Kitty phasing through everyone in her rush to escape, Toad jumping over everyone and the rest of us calmly exiting the vehicle.
"Just watch it X-Geek!" I heard someone snap, I saw Kitty being shouted at by some blonde, Rogue and I moved toward them and I placed a hand on a furious looking Kitty's shoulder.
"You okay, Kitty?" I asked.
"Tell your little cat here to watch she's going next time!" the blonde spat at me, her blue eyes like ice as she glared at me, there were quite a few people watching now.
"What happened?" I questioned, ignoring the blonde and talking to Kitty, this seemed to infuriate blondie and she leapt at me, scratching my face with her long nails.
My fist slammed into her stomach and she flew away from me, I could feel the scratches on my face healing and Kitty and Rogue looked furious, Wanda, Lance and Toad were now standing with us and were also glaring at the blonde girl who was standing up.
"What the hell is wrong with you?!" I demanded, wiping the blood of my cheek.
"Don't ever ignore me!" she hissed, her hands glowing blue, she threw the ball of blue glow at me and it turned into ice, I made my metal claws come out of my hands and cut it cleanly in two just before my face.
"Watch who you mess with," Lance growled, glaring darkly at the girl, so what if his power wouldn't work here, he looked scary!
"You're like Wolverine," she gasped, her eyes fixed on my claws and I quickly retracted them, everyone had already seen though.
"He's my dad," I sighed, wiggling my fingers as my hand tingled slightly from the claws being there.
"I-I'm sorry," blondie stammered.
My eyebrows raised and I saw she was focusing on something over my shoulder, I turned and saw my dad, a smile graced my lips and I wrapped my arms around him tightly as he hugged me.
"What are you doing here?" I grinned, "please tell me you're living with us, I can't take babysitting them all, except Rogue, she's okay."
"HEY!!" the rest of them protested and I laughed.
"I'm helping teaching gym," my dad shrugged, ruffling my hair, I slapped him on the arm and straightened my hair.
"No, that's bad!" Kitty wailed, "you're teaching methods are, like totally, evil, Mr Logan!"
"Fifty laps around the school!" he barked.
Everyone's jaws dropped and I giggled, "daddy, no, that's mean, we've got to go to this Power Placement thing so no running," I said calmly, "bye daddy, see you later, let's go guys."
They hurriedly followed me so they wouldn't have to run laps, dad shook his head with a scowl, he hated not getting his own way, but I could run rings around him since I was his daughter and he couldn't say no to me, hell yeah, I'm awesome.
"Um, where's the gym?" I laughed weakly as we stopped in the middle of the hallway, they all looked at me incredulously, I spotted Layla and sighed, then made my way over to her, "um, Layla, where's the gym?"
"I'll show you," she smiled happily, taking my arm and pulling me down the corridor.
"Hey, Greek," a voice called, I had a Greek name, was that me?
"You talking about me?" I frowned, turning and facing the hot guy from the bus stop.
"Yeah," he nodded, smirking, "good job on Freeze, you kicked her ass without even trying."
"You going to tell me what your name is, 'cause I can't call you 'the guy from the bus stop' forever?" I grinned, raising an eyebrow, "and the name's Zelena, not Greek."
"Warren," he smirked, "see you round, Greek."
"Zelena!" I shouted after him as he walked away, he simply waved a hand dismissively, I shook my head slightly with a small smile, "he is so dead, the name's Zelena."
Layla had an ecstatic look on her face, "you and Warren seem to click!" she said in almost a squeal, "he never clicks with anyone!"
"Huh?" I said dumbly, realisation dawning on me, "no, no way Layla, you are not going to try and set us up, my father would kill him, and me, dad's really overprotective, and I've only just met him, just no, Layla," I protested weakly, her grin never dropped.
"Okay, you can get to know him first," she said happily, dragging me to the gym, I grabbed Kitty as I was yanked past her and the others and they followed quickly, damn, for such a fragile looking girl Layla was strong.
"I didn't mean that!" I wailed, high school was evil, I didn't like high school, hate was a strong word and I didn't like using it.
Except on special occasions.
So, what do you think? Should I continue with it?
Please tell me in a review!!
