Fate Will Bring them Together
If only if only the woodpecker signs, the grass were as green as the blue in the sky. But the wolf waits below hungry and lonely. It cries to the moon: If only if only.

Kitty
Kitty repeated the poem again to herself under her breath. She knew it'd be on the test later that day and it would make up for the other things she'd neglected to try and memorize the night before. She had full intentions of course. Originally. But than Lance called at 2am, and talking to him seemed like a nice break. It truly was a flawless plan, until they didn't hang up from each other till like 4, and then a 2½ hour nap made more sense… She could still skip 2nd and study for English then? Yes 2nd wasn't important today. That way she had both 2nd and lunch to study for the Test-that might be more like an exam?...Flawless!
A satisfied smiles spread across her lips as she was glad she'd resolved how to pass her test-turned exam worth a good part of her grade and still make it to 4th to see Lance again.
The professor and the others had no idea how hard high school was! Yes sometimes she chose not to study for things because something better was happening. IE. The first episode of the season for Grey's Anatomy was on last night. So that took up 2 hours. Again, not her fault. But if she didn't have to deal with all the annoying training, she would have SO much more time to study/care. Grade 11 was hard, she wasn't sure what she wanted to be yet, random ass holes still hated them, Lance was picking up his marks to graduate, while working a part-time job so they didn't get to be together as much AND it felt like no one cared! She was really trying here! She was getting 80% - 90% on all her crap! She was one tough chick! And wanted some recognition for her awesomeness. She was sick of hearing about Jean & Scott and their so-called awesomeness! Wow they graduated on the honor roll-or something. And they were teaching the new recruits things. She could show them stuff if she didn't have school & her boyfriend lived with her so it was easier to meet up. AND now she had to either walk to school, or teleport in (secretly) with Kurt and smell like burning hair!...Life was hard!
ROGUE
Rogue covered her eyes as her phone went off. An annoying alarm on her smart phone she couldn't figure out how to make more pleasant, and still manage to wake her up. She was glad to have her own room because she liked to sleep with just a long shirt on. Plus not having 1st meant waking up at 8am, & that meant everyone else was either in school, already up-&-gone, or sleeping-in. So she had the 2nd floor-sleeping corridor to herself. THAT in turn meant she could walk around in her long shirt even longer and just wear it on the way to have a shower. You know, now wanting to kill people or whateva'. Really it just gave her more time to be lazy is what it all boiled down to.
Grabbing her red towel she opened the door just in time to see a shirtless Remy look at her and continue to walk by, back to his room. He clearly checked her out like he always did & she was pretty sure he wanted to jump her bones. 'That's how guys say things right?' Rogue gave him a blank stare as he looked at her. Just like she did every week this shit happened for the last month since school started. She always forgot it was coming & never had a better reaction than that. Remy was built like a freaking Greek God! He'd let his hair grow out a bit so it was now shaggy, & it made him very sexy. Is it wrong that she kinda, and honestly did hate him a lot of the time, but still wanted to stick her tough down his throat?!...Ya, know, without comma tossing him… I mean really-is that TOO much to ask from an 18 year old? It's really not.
The now 5'7 Rogue walked to the bathroom that her, Kitty & Amara all shared-closed the door, turned on the water & looked for her shampoo. While in the shower she tried to remember if she'd finished all her schoolwork. Two classes had test scheduled but she was prepared for them and she had a lab to do in 3rd. Maybe at lunch she'd look into university's to apply for? Uh grade 12 was hard!
REMY
Remy stretched his arms in front of him as he twisted his back both ways after leaving the danger room. He carried his shirt- he had no intention of wearin' it, he was to fuckin' hot. Plus it being Friday meant he'd run into his favorite southern beauty. Sure she always had a 'just woke up 12 seconds ago' look to her this early in the mornin' but he for some reason loved the absolute hell outta it. Before he even got to the top of the steps he heard the faint sound from her alarm. Like clock-work her door open right before he passed it & he always took that chance to look at her. He loved her messy hair & her nice legs! But more importantly he wanted to grab her face & shove his tough down her damn throat…Bur that 3½ second glance was all he'd get of her for the day. He knew she'd be at school, didn't come home till about 6, but he was always gone by 5. Sometimes if dey both got home early by 11 dey'd see each other, but he didn't usually come home 'till the next mornings. And from the few times he did come home, she would be out - till what, 2am?
He knew no one knew where he went. He was appreciative of the Professor for not asking, even if he had felt Jean try and find out. He'd been able to block her off and she didn't pry again. He didn't really mind Jean. Dey got along well enough regardless of that small incident that dey both pretended never happened. She was hot, why start a feud with that? It was Scott he couldn't stand. He could be a nice guy, but every time dey talked he acted like he was better. Thought he was more intelligent & knew more in all matters of everything. Now Remy knew he was a smart guy. He'd graduated high school not long after he turned 15, and had skipped both 7th & 10th grade. He'd been on the honors roll & gotten a few awards. He didn't need to boast. He had too much confidence in who he was as a person that he didn't need others to know to make his accomplishments feel good enough. He'd gone to a spiffy private high school on scholarship & learned everythin' they wanted him to know. Sure he still grew up on the street and didn't get along with his dad anymore, but he was thankful for the opportunity's he'd given him…Even the ones he had no idea how to quite. Those are the ones that got him into trouble. Not trouble with the law. He was to good to get caught. But all that free time after high school & an open city it really was only time before he ran into Magneto. Even his time spent under Magneto he found it hard to hate him for it. It had given him the chance to realize that more could be done with his powers. And that there was a life outside of New Orleans and away from littl' miss Bella…
LANCE
Lance grudgingly woke up to his alarm clock after hitting the snooze button every 10 minutes for the last hour. He really didn't wonna get up. He was already late for 1st so decided it was best to skip it all together…If he got up now & left he would even be early for 2nd.
Opening his eyes once again he located his phone & shoved it into his back pocket. He was still wearing his clothes from the night before from work. He worked on cars at a dealership. He wasn't allowed to do anything super important to 'em, but he was allowed to grease 'em up, change the oil, check out & estimate damages, & fix/replace broken windows. He manly did the first & last jobs of that list. He worked that job Tuesday & Wednesdays 5-10 & Thursday & Fridays at a bar/club downtown as the bartender after he got his Safe-Serve over the summer. He was legally allowed to serve drinks, but not make 'em. That was until the original bartender was fired. She was some hot baldmodel who was always showing up late. The place he works at isn't exactly legal, & very underground. So they let him become bartender after teaching him the mane drinks right before firing Nala-the hot bald model. Kitty of course doesn't know about job #2 for that reason. She also doesn't question why he sometimes calls so late on those nights either. It's a good system.
Lance mentally ran over his classes for the day. He's already missed English, but he was at a 70% so it was ok. He'd make it on time for technology, then he had lunch, history & chemistry with Kitty. It was an 11/12 split since there are to many grade 12 for one class.- That legal? Lance made an angry face when he remembered college…He should look into it more. Maybe lunch? 'Why hasn't the government given me money for saving the fucking world?! Because they are all dicks!' a voice reminded him.
Avalanche rolled his neck as he looked down to remember if what he was wearing was ok for high school. At Pulse-the club- he dressed older & more…sexier? It got him better tips from the ladies. He had on black khakis & an open button down white shirt. He did look pretty hot. Still, not for school though. He ripped off his shirt & tossed it on the bed, before realizing he was gonna wear it again that night & straightened it out. He grabbed a dark colorued shirt from a drawer instead. He yawed again as he put on some Old Spice & grabbed his keys & a granola bar from the desk & was gone. Leaving behind his roommates that probably wouldn't get up till he got home.
FUTURE
The noise of an air strike sounded as the alarms grew louder. The sound was defining and their heartbeats continued to beat faster. The chaos only created more panic as everything grew faster, and faster to a-head. Time was running out and their opportunity will had passed forever. There was no way they would ever get another chance to change things. Fix them, make it like it was.
The two long-hair war-harden beauties were in-front of all that was left of their unit. The natural light burned their eyes as they all continued to try and keep running with their heartbeats beating deep in their ears. A constant reminded of what was at stake. This was their opportunity to literally change the world.
