This story is a little different than most and I hope you enjoy it. Please
be kind and review and you can flame if you want because that really
doesn't bother me that much. However, I would prefer constructive
criticism. It is rate PG-13 for some mild language but nothing too bad.
I'm not planning on having any romance in my story just to warn everyone
that is expecting my OC to fall in love with another one of the characters.
The story is a bit AU but not to much. I hope you enjoy it.

Prologue
"Come on Tabitha, we are going to miss curfew again. I can't take any more extra sessions in the Danger Room for being late," cried Amara.
"Relax; the Professor knew that we had a lot of work to do tonight at the library. He knows that we had this huge report to complete next week. Relax; he'll let us slide this one time. I mean, we were at the library."
"I hope your right," Amara huffed. The girls walked to the institute in a rushed manner but it took them longer because of their heavy book load. The girls were trying to make it back in time for their 9 o'clock curfew but it was already beginning to get dark because of the cool and cloudy fall weather. As they rushed through the streets, the cool wind blew in a harsh manner.
"It is sure getting cold quickly this year." Tabitha puffed in the air. "Hey, I know a short cut home. You wanna take it?"
"I don't know Tabitha. No offense but I don't always trust your short cuts," Amara replied sheepishly.
"Come on, what is the worst that can happen?"
"I don't know about." but before Amara could finish her sentence, Tabitha pulled her through an alleyway.
"Will be back in time, I promise." Amara just stared at her companion and prayed for the best. Tabitha quickly dragged Amara through the back streets. As they began to see the gate of the institute in the distance, Amara felt extremely relieved.
"I'm surprised Tabitha, I can't believe that you actually didn't get us lost."
"See, I told you everything would be all right." Tabitha just stared at her friend with a confident smirk.
"Are you sure about that?" Tabitha and Amara both turned around to see a where the voice had come from. As they looked, someone stepped out of the shadows.
"What do you want, Pyro?" Tabitha narrowed her eyes and was prepared to throw a bomb at him. "Amara," Tabitha whispered, "don't use your power."
"Ok," the shaken Amara quietly whispered back.
"Go away. Come on Amara." However, before they got to the exit of the alleyway, another figure landed in front of them blocking their path.
"Shit. What do you losers want?" Tabitha was furious about their sudden appearance. While Tabitha was ready to fight, Amara was too terrified to react. Tabitha took off her backpack and prepared to battle.
Before she got her answer, the second figure stepped out of the shadows. Pyro nodded to Gambit, the second figure, and they slowly advanced toward the two girls. Amara was too shaken to move but Tabitha was prepared to fight. She created a handful of bombs and threw them at the enemy. They both were able to dodge the explosions before they cause much problem. Gambit casually tossed a charged card at the pair of girls, which blasted them backward. Amara flew into the air and hit her head against the brick wall, which knocked her unconscious. Tabitha, however, landed hard but was able to stand up. However, before any of them were able to make a move, a dagger flew down and struck Pyro in the back, which effectively disable his flamethrower machine. The three looked up to see a young women standing on the roof. Before the two could strike at their new enemy, the new player jumped down to enter the alleyway. She had slightly pointed ears, yellow eyes, and midnight blue hair. All of the teenagers knew she was a mutant because of the fact she had three midnight blue fox tails with white tips. The fox mutant wore black, loose pants, which she tucked into her black boots. Her shirt was fitted and matched the color of her hair. Her dark blue hair that reached down to her mid-back was tied back into a thick braid. Her hands were covered in black gloves that had the fingers cut off, which revealed her claws. The only noticeable item she had were the silver earring cuff on her left ear and a holster on her right leg for the dagger that she had cast at Pyro. She charged a light blue flame in her hands and dashed forward. The mystery women grabbed her dagger and blasted Pyro with the prepared attack in the face. The blue flame did not burn his skin, which surprised him. Pyro then received a quick kick to the head and hit the ground with a thud. She then moved swiftly to Gambit. Her speed was amazing and she was quickly upon the Cajun. He raised his staff to block her out stretched claws. She crashed into his defense and but was able to blast him with the same flame attack as well. Gambit quickly fell back after the attack and prepared his next attack. However, she was soon gaining the offensive and was able to deliver a devastating blow to his stomach. Afterward, she picked him up and threw him away from the battleground, which effectively left him stuck among the garbage in the alley. She smirked at the ease of her prey.
"Behind you" the blonde girl cried as she attempted to help her fallen friend. The woman quickly turned around and was faced with her first challenger. While she had destroyed the contraption on his back, which she figured he depended on, he appeared to hold a lighter.
"You can't stop me that easily," he smirked in an Australian accent. However, the strange fox women just smirked. Pyro quickly ignited the lighter but found her was unable to control the fire. "What!? This isn't over bitch. You shouldn't have interfered." He ran and grabbed his ally and ran into the night. The strange women approached the two girls and appeared to be friendly.
"Are you alright?" she asked the young blonde.
"Yeah, I'll be fine but Amara isn't waking up," the panicked girl cried.
"Don't worry. Let me see." She did a quick physical examination of the girl by looking in her eyes, checking her pulse and for other damages. "She should be fine but she should see a doctor."
"If I can get her to the institute, Amara can see someone." Tabitha cried without thinking of the danger of bringing someone foreign to the mansion.
"Lead the way to the building and I will carry the girl." She picked up the tiny girl and her backpack and began to follow Tabitha. The foreign woman seemed motherly although see appeared to be in her twenties. However, her fighting skills were extremely smooth and calculated. Tabitha just stared at her with amazement.
"Here we are and, by the way, thanks for saving are asses back there," but as Tabitha turned around Amara was laid down gently and beginning to stir. The fox woman was gone into the night. Tabitha ran inside and called out for help for her teammate and friend. Amara was treated for her concussion and other injuries but was going to be fine. Tabitha was just too freaked out about the incident and all she could remember was the kind words of the fox mutant and her mysterious entrance and exit.
Chapter 1
The poetry class continually talked as they came into class that morning and as they came to their seats. "Class, pay attention, now," called Mrs. Edwins as she tried to get their attention. "I have a surprise for all of you today. For the next marking period, we are going to have a student teacher from Barnard College. So I would like to introduce, Corina Silvanus." The young woman stood up from her seat next to the teacher's desk and moved to the front of the class as Mrs. Edwins walked about to her desk. "Why don't you tell us something about yourself Ms. Silvanus?"
The young student teacher was of a medium height and build with dark brown, curly hair and blue eyes. She wore a black suit pants with a purple sweater top that was fitted. Corina held herself with extreme grace and poise. "Ok, well, my name is Corina Silvanus and I'm 22 years old and a senior at Barnard with a major in English and Biology. I'm currently living with my grandmother, who lives in Bayville, and I will be responsible for being your teacher over the course of my internship here at Bayville High School. I will also be available if any student needs help or tutoring in English." The student teacher then took her seat next to the teacher's desk and Mrs. Edwins returned to the front to the class.
"Oh, Tabitha, could you please give Amara her homework assignments; I know she has been out the last two days so I wouldn't want her to get behind."
"Thanks. I'll be sure to get the stuff to her. She should be back in a few days," Tabitha replied in her nonchalant manner.
"Ok class, for the next week I'm going to be teaching with Ms. Silvanus but after that she will be on her own for the next few weeks. Pietro and Todd will you please stop talking when I'm talking." The two boys just looked at the teacher and ignored her. Ms. Edwins just shook her head and just continued on with the lesson. As Tabitha was leaving and packing up Amara's homework from the class, Pietro approached her.
"How's Amara?" he said in a fake sympathetic tone "I heard she had a little accident. What happened?"
"You know what happened to her. I promise you, it will not happen the next time. Back off, Pietro or I'll blast you right here."
"You wouldn't dare do that."
Before Tabitha could charge her attack, another figure stepped into the argument. "Pietro, move on to your next class."
Both of the teens looked up to see the new addition to their class looking sternly. "Now." Corina's eyes changed from their normal warm expression to a cold, demanding expression.
"Whatever," Pietro called over his shoulder to save face from his obvious retreat.
"Tabitha, do you need help with all the books you have to carry?"
Almost too shocked to answer at the student teacher's quick change in attitude, the blonde stuttered a quick "No thank you."
"Ok, I'll see you tomorrow then." Corina turned around and slowly walked out of the classroom. She seemed to walk in a strange manner but it was somewhat familiar.
Later that evening, Tabitha went to the medical bay to visit her injured friend. "Hey Amara, it is nice to see that you are doing better."
"Yeah, the stomach ache and the nausea are finally going away."
"That's good. Oh I brought her homework for you. We have a new student teacher in poetry class and she seems really cool. You'll love her."
"Good." Before the conversation continued, Professor X entered the room.
"Ah good, Tabitha and Amara, I need to talk to you about the attack a few night ago. What happened? Now Tabitha, I know that you will know most of what happened but Amara I need your help if you can."
"Ok," the girls answer in unison.
"Why did Pyro and Gambit attack you? Did they seem to have a mission or a reason to attack you?"
"They just came out of nowhere Professor. We were just walking along and they just fell out of the sky. They didn't even talk but that one time. They just nodded and attacked." The blonde seemed frantic as she tried to retell the story. "Then, as I was trying to protect Amara, a dagger just flew out of nowhere and the fox chick appeared. She used some strange blue fire that messed with Pyro's powers. She blasted him in the face and did the same thing to Gambit. When Pyro recovered, he tried to use a lighter that he carried but he couldn't seem to control the fire. It was totally freaky. Then she came over and looked after Amara. She carried her back but left before anyone could see her like she had never been there."
"This new mutant seems to have escaped Cerebro's detection. Where did she gain that skill?" The Professor continued to think on the matter as he left the two students to discuss other things but before he left something in their conversation gained his interest.
"Oh, you should have seen new student teacher. She is really great and even scared Pietro off when he was bothering me. You should have seen it."
"Tabitha, what did this new teacher look like?" The Professor became suddenly interested in the new addition to the addition to English department.
"Well, she was about medium build and height with dark brown hair and blue eyes. Why?"
"Oh, nothing. Just thinking about something."
"What the hell happened last night? I want to know what disrupted the plan," demanded an infuriated Magneto. "You got me. That chick just came out of nowhere and just blasted us. I don't know why she even cared. The fire she threw is still messing with my powers." The Aussie seemed to be pissed about the fact that he could no longer use his mutant ability but continued his habit of creating fire from his lighter. "Who is she? What did she look like? Do you remember anything about her before she beat your asses?" "Yeah, she looked like a fox. She had pointy ears, three tails, and claws. Her eyes were so eerie. They just shone this yellow that seemed to show no emotion. Talk about weird. She was definitely a mutant if that's what you're after." "Did she look like she was one of Xavier's?" "No, she was older than a teenager. She could have been in her twenties." "Hmm. No one has ever even seen her before this." Before Magneto could continue the questioning of his agents, Pietro and Todd walked by talking about school. "I can't believe that bitch of a student teacher. She doesn't even know who I am." The silver hair teen seemed aggravated about his confrontation with the teacher. "Hehe, you're just annoyed because she freaked you out and you ran away," Todd smirked because of the clear agitation that crossed his allies face. "I did not run from that bitch. I was late for class and just didn't feel like dealing with it." "Yeah right." Todd continued to snicker as he continued down the hall. "Pietro, what is this about a teacher?" Magneto became suddenly interested in his son's academic classes. "What? Oh, well, in English class a new student teacher came in today. What a bitch she was! Just because she went to Barnard or something like she thinks she is so great. When I was "talking" to Tabitha, she came up to me and told me to go. She was really freaky. She was totally emotionless. I should have shown that bitch what she was messing with." "That might not have been the best idea. Tell me, what color were her eyes?" "They were a dark blue. Why?" "I think we might have found out a very important factor. I want you to observer her. See if she shows any signs of a mutant power." "Sure, whatever. I'm going now, ok." The speed demon sped off before any more could be said.
