A/N: I wrote this fic during the night, when i wasn't very focused, so if it sucks, please tell me, and give me some reviews. P.S This is one of my very first fics, so please, no flaming.
A hooded woman was approaching the gates of Xavier's Institute for Gifted Youngsters. Carly Maverick had a small plan to get in unnoticed by the anyone. She reached the gates of the Manor, and she stood there. One second she was standing there, the next, she was replaced by blue orbs of light, and then, on the other side of the gates, in the same position she had been a moment ago.
"Same old Manor, I guess," Carly said,
She then kept walking to the steps of the Manor.
Meanwhile inside the Manor,
The alarms were blaring all over the mansion. Logan was the first one up and running towards the entrance of the manor. The Professor had told him that there was an intruder heading towards the manor. He ran past Storm who was trying to calm down the scared students that had woken by the alarms. He met Jean on his way to the entrance.
"Hey, Red, do you have any idea who's the guy that decided to wake us all up?" he asked her.
"Not a clue. Whoever this person is, they have experience with telepaths" she answered.
He grumbled at that. Great! they were going into the battlefield blind. He just put that thought aside as he reached the main doors and sprung out, despite Jean's warnings. The cool air hit his face and the next thing he knew, he was slipping out of counsciousness.
Carly was singing the tune from Vanessa Carrtons, "A Thousand Miles," when she reached the steps of the manor. suddenly, a man sprung from the doors, and her first instinct was to raise her hands and release a burst of energy from her hands. The man fell to the ground, hard. She took her hood of the reveal her face to the approaching group.
"I'm back?" she half asked, half stated, as she put her hands in the air, as if she were caught by the police. They surrounded her, ready to take her down when suddenly the Professor came out of the mansion, and wheeled himself in front of her.
Most of the team had seen what this girl had done with Logan, and he was more worried about the professor.
"Professor-"
"Please stand down, all of you, we have a guest," he told them.
The X Men and X Women reluctantly fell back. The woman approached the professor and gave him a hug. The group was astonished & confused at this.
"Carly, how nice to see you in, come in! We have so much to talk about." said the Professor.
"Sure thing Professor, How have you been?" she asked him.
They continued this little chat, until Scott interrupted them.
"Um, Professor? What about, you know, Logan?" Scott asked.
The two immediately looked at the unconscious body that was Logan. The Professor slowly turned his head towards Carly, and gave her a questioning stare. Carly just played with her fingers and moved from one foot to the other, trying to avoid eye contact.
"Carly,"
"You can't blame me for this, the guy burst out of the door, without any warning, and what did you expect me to do? Just stand there and get myself gutted by him?" she protested.
The professor thought about this for a second and answered.
"Good point."
She rolled her eyes at his answer and leaned down to take a look at Logan's body.
"Don't worry, I'll fix him up. Thankfully, I used a repulsing ray. My guess is that he has a broken rib, and he'll feel sore when he wakes up."
She hovered her hand over Logan's broken rib. A second later, her hand started glowing and she left it there a couple seconds. She pulled back and grinned at the old man. They went in to the mansion as everyone else was trying to help Logan stand and take him to his room.
