Hello again! Just letting all of you know, this is a sequel to "the purple sky", which was,

really, my best work. So you'll be totally lost unless you read that. Kay, R/R...

PROLOGUE

I found myself thinking of him often. Of Kurt. Wondering if he ever thought of me. If he

even knew I was still alive. Probably not, I convinced myself, after all, it had been a

whole year since we took down the laboratory, the one that performed gruesome

experiments on me for 10 years. I hoped he was happy. I knew I wasn't. I had been alone

ever since. And ever since the explosion I'd found a new cause. It was no longer to take

down William Stryker and his cronies, that had been done. Now it was finding my

parents, and asking "Why? " Although I knew that they may not ever be able to answer.

CHAP 1

"Kurt! I totally told you not to do that!"

"Hmm?" Kurt looked up from the kitchen table at the mansion to find a furious

Kitty Pryde looking back at him.

"vhat?" Kurt asked innocently.

"You know what. EAT SUGAR STRAIGHT FROM THE CONTAINER,

THAT'S WHAT! That's like, sooo gross! You're going to be totally bouncing off the

walls!" She yanked the sugar jar from his hand and replaced it on the shelf. Kurt pouted.

"Keety, you are such the party pooper." He said, standing, and beginning to walk

up the steps to his room.

"Hey Kurt!" she shouted after him.

"hmm?" he turned to her.

"your seventeenth birthday is in a few days, so like, quit being sad, okay?"

"who said I vas sad, Keety?" he asked, puzzled.

"Well.I mean...usually you put up a fight 'bout the whole..sugar thing."

Kitty muttered, smiling a bit at the thought. Kurt smiled at her sadly.

"don't vorry, Keety. I'm fine..really..." with that he returned up the stairs and

into his bedroom. Kitty heaved a sigh. She turned up the steps and stopped at Kurt's door,

her fist raised, as she was about to knock. Her hand was still raised in mid air when she

realized that he was talking to someone. But who? She lowered her hand and leaned her

slender face against the door.

"Please god, I know I ask you every day, but please please vatch over Aurora."

Kitty's eyes widened. He was praying. AGAIN. She turned and walked to her room,

feeling quite bad for her friend. She kneeled near her bed.

"god...you know I'm totally not used to this...but..please take care of

Kurt he's hurting so much...he-...damn it Aurora! Why did you have to die!? Why

like that? Hasn't Kurt lost enough? With Amanda, and...and..." a sob escaped Kitty's

throat. "just...take care of him, okay, god?" she wiped her eyes, and stood. "take care of

him.."
