Chapter 1: Discovery
((Authors note: oops sorry, I must have mixed things up while trying to re- vamp my work, sorry, now it should be back to normal...fingers crossed))
A girl was sitting outside of the institute doors, late at night, looking around as if bored. She blended in with the darkness. Her long hair was raven black, she was wearing a black t-shirt and a black school skirt, with knee high black socks and black shoes. Her eyes were pale, just like her skin, she was holding an old worn teddy bear in her right hand, though she was obviously a teenager. Her name is Kimberly, or Kim for short.
There was suddenly a small ~Bamf~ sound, Kurt was standing next to her, his inducer on, he was wearing a white t-shirt and grey shorts. He had woken up from a nightmare and looked outside of his window and spotted Kim.
"'ello, are you alright?" he asked nervously, she looked up at him with her pale blue eyes and nodded. "Are you zure?" he asked again, her response the same. He shrugged and teleported back to his room, the first thing that went though his mind was to tell the professor, but as he glanced at his clock, he saw that it was 1:00am, he'd wait until first thing in the morning, then he'd tell someone. He crawled back into bed, taking off his inducer, then he drifted back off to sleep.
The next morning Kurt woke up, earlier than usual and got dressed straight away. Forgetting to put on his inducer he teleported straight downstairs, hoping to find Jean, Scott or Logan down early. But that wasn't who he found. Kim was standing in the kitchen eating some toast, watching the news, her teddy bear attached to her waist using some string. In the light of the day she looked a lot more human and less gothic. She didn't seem to notice that Kurt was in the kitchen,
"Err 'ello again" Kurt said cheerfully, her head quickly turned to where he was, her expression shocked. "Did you get zome zleep lazt night?" he asked she nodded, before beginning to walk swiftly out of the room.
"Vait!" he called making her halt "I'm zorry but I 'ave to azk, voo are you, and vhy don't you zpeak?" he realised that this was a slightly rude question, considering that the longest he'd seen her for, was for 2 minutes.
A voice cut through Kurt's mind {My name is Kimberly, but you can call me Kim} the voice said {I don't speak because I'm mute and I can't} and with that she left him standing there, s shocked look on his face.
Scott and Jean came into the kitchen a couple of minutes after, "Hey Kurt, what's up?" Scott asked once he'd seen Kurt's face.
"Zhere vas ziz girl, zhe vaz mute, yet zhe could ztill talk" he said slowly,
Scott and Jean exchanged looks, "Are you sure Kurt?" Jean asked.
"Yez, zhe juzt left right now" he said, Jean looked at Scott, "Zcott 'as zhere been any new recruitz?" Kurt asked, Scott shook his head
"Maybe we should ask the professor he'd know who she-" Scott began to say before a voice cut through their conversation
"Nope, I don't think you'll be doing that" it was Logan, "That girl is none of your business elf"
Jean and Scott seemed to except this, Kurt just nodded, before teleporting back to his room.

{But professor, what if he informs everyone of my presence?} Kim asked, as she sat across from the professor, drinking some tea.
"Well, maybe you shouldn't have stayed hidden all these years" Xavier said.
{Yes well they might have got freaked out if I was around} she sighed.
"Are you so sure that have would have been 'freaked out'?" Xavier asked her, she nodded
{Yes, I saw the look on Kurt's face, he was horrified} she sighed, {and if they didn't get frightened, then they might take pity on me} her voice was filled with disgust when she said the last bit.
"Fine, but Kimberly, you've spent most of your teenage years alone in your room, it's not healthy, but if you insist on staying hidden, then I shall let you stay that way" he finished with a sigh.
{Um professor, I'm sorry to ask again, but do you have any idea why I can go through portals?} Kim asked {I thought mutants were limited to one power, or another power to do with their first power}
"I can only tell you what I think happened, your mind opens the portals small enough for you to go through, maybe it is an attachment onto your first power, I'm not sure" he replied, then started to talk about other things. But for the rest of the conversation Kim's mind was some where else, she was thinking about Kurt.
****
Kurt was walking down the hallway to his room, even though Logan had told him to forget about the girl, he couldn't. It was strange to have met someone who is mute yet they can still talk.
"Zen again, zhe'z probably never met someone voo iz blue and furry" he said out loud.
{That's where you'd be wrong blue-boy} a voice cut into his mind.
"Voo'z zhere?" he called out, turning to see Kim standing by the shadows
{Just me} her voice sounded like a sneer.
"'ow do you do zat?" he asked.
{Do what?}
"Juzt appear!" he sounded slightly hysterical
{It's all down to my power blue-boy} she 'said' with a smirk
"And zat vould be?" he asked.
{None of your business} she smirked disappearing again. Leaving him feeling slightly annoyed, he teleported into his room and hung from the chandelier
"Zhe iz zo annoying" he commented to himself
{Am I now?} Kim was standing by his door; she was smiling, not smirking.
"Iv all your goingk to do iz annoy me zen go avay" he said calmly, Kim looked at the floor.
{I didn't mean to annoy you, you're the only person my age who's spoken to me for a long time} her voice suddenly sad and the smile vanishing from her face
"Vhy?" he asked curiously
{Because they get frightened, because they are they only ones who can hear my conversation" she explained a few tears falling down her cheeks.
"'ey don't cry, I'm not frightened of you" Kurt said teleporting down. {Yes, you were, I saw the look of horror on your face}
"Well I'm not zcared any more" he said softly. Kim looked up and smiled at him.
{Thanks blue-bo- Kurt} she said, then with a small ~pop~ sound she was sitting on the edge of his bed, {So you're sure your not scared of me any more?}
"I'm zure" he replied, suddenly realising how she just appeared. He went and sat next to her, and they began talking about the usual teenage junk.
****
After an hour or so, Kim went back to her room, which is hidden by cerebro, and Kurt went down stair to get a drink. Jean and Scott saw him. Logan had told them to make sure that Kurt forgot about the girl, so they were going to try.
"Kurt we realise that you must want to try and find out about this girl but- " Jean started to say before Kurt interrupted.
"Yez I promize to forget about ze girl and get on viv my life" he said quickly, grabbing a can of soda. Logan heard him.
"Out with it elf, what changed your mind?" he growled, stopping Kurt from going into the Rec room, Kurt just shrugged, "Elf, I mean it, you'd better- " he was cut off, as if listening to someone, then growled and let Kurt past.
A few minutes later Kurt teleported back to his room, to find Kim sitting on the edge of his bed again.
{Sorry about Logan, he's a bit protective of me} she said smiling again.
"Vaz it you voo told 'im to let me pazt?" Kurt asked. She nodded the paused as if listening to someone.
{Aww, sorry, but the professor wants to see me, I'll talk to you later blue- boy} she smiled, porting out of his room. He smiled; he was really starting to like her.
****
{Professor, you were right} she said smiling, her thoughts still on Kurt.
"About what?" Xavier asked, though he knew what she was talking about
{About needing to come out of hiding, in a matter of hours me and Kurt have become really good friends, and, well I like being friends with someone my age}
"Well then one question remains, do you want to become open with everyone, or just Kurt?" Xavier asked.
{I think I should try with everyone}
"How about I introduce you to everyone at dinner?" Xavier suggested. Kim got up and hugged him
{Arigato!} she said happerly.
