Spindash chapter 2
So I'll reply to the reviews since it's only fair!
Scarletnightcrawler- Yeah, the brotherhood will be living with Kurt. He does look like he usually does but he also can change into human form ( either at will or with the holo-watch, I don't know yet).
Let's start this chapter and remember to review!
Another long first day at school. Honestly, it could have been better. But it could have gone a lot worse than I thought. Where should I start? This morning would be the best place...
So I woke up around 7 to hear my alarm clock blaring. Jesus Christ, it was so loud. I pushed the snooze button and got out of bed. I took a shower and then changed my clothes.
I thought " Hmm...what should I wear for the first day? I don't really care about making a good impression unless it's with the dames."
So I just put on a long-sleeved blue T-shirt, a short-sleeved red collared shirt over that and a pair of jeans. It wasn't the type of clothes that would make me popular but I didn't care. I then headed downstairs to get breakfast, rubbing my eyes.
I got to the bottom of the stairs when I saw some skinny, pale skinned boy sitting in the dining room. I didn't know who he was but he sure wasn't here last night.
I muttered " The hell are you?"
The kid replied " Name's Toad. Toad Tolansky. Just who are you?"
I replied " Kurt Wagner. I live here. Raven didn't say anything about another kid."
Then again, Raven doesn't say much about anything. Plus, she's not even here. Why am I not surprised?
I grabbed a bowl, a spoon and a box of cereal before I poured some cereal into the bowl and added some milk in. I tried not to eat so fast because then I might puke. That's the last thing I needed.
It was like 7:35 am so I had to head out to school. Since Raven left us, I didn't want to show my power off to Toad right now and walking would take too long, I did the most reasonable thing. I grabbed a car key and headed outside with Toad hopping behind me.
Toad asked " What are you doing, yo?"
I answered " Just trying to find our ride to school." as I pressed the button on the car key. The car beeped as it was down the street. It was a sleek, good-looking, red Ferrari. Figures Raven would have a car like that. I got into the driver's seat, putting on my seatbelt and the key into the ignition. I then realized that Toad was still on the sidewalk, gaping at the Ferrari.
I honked the horn, bringing him back to reality.
I shouted " Come on, it's a quarter to eight!" as Toad jumped into the passenger seat.
Toad and I managed to get to school on time and we didn't even run through a red light. Here it is. Bayville High, the latest of many schools I've been to. At least there are some good-looking girls here. But I'll have time for flirting and fantasy later. Right now, I have to go to Rav-I mean, Principal Darkholme's office.
I already knew where the place was so all I had to do was just walk inside.
Raven was there in her disguise, brown hair, glasses and all. She looked up at me and then at the brown manila folder on her desk.
Raven said " Ah, Kurt Wagner. 15 years old from Munich, Bavaria, Germany. Is fluent in English and has German as his native language. Very good student at your last school, although some teachers referred to you as shy and closeted while others said that you were a bit of the class clown."
She continued " Here's your schedule and your lock for your locker. Your first class is in 5 minutes, so I'd hurry if I were you." before I left her office.
OK, my locker's on the first floor along with my last class of the day. Thank god that means I could get out of here quicker. I headed to my locker and shoved most of my books inside, except for the ones that I needed for the day. My first class is English with a Mrs. Radoni.
I thought " Third floor, room 348. Great, the bell's gonna ring any minute. I'd better hurry." as I closed my locker and ran to English.
I stopped and slowed down as I heard a loud, high-pitched sound and kids started heading to their first class. I'm already late so there's no point in rushing it. Five minutes later, I walk into English with my calm and cool attitude in place.
Mrs. Radoni said " You're late."
I smiled shyly and replied " I'm sorry. It's my first day."
She checked a folder before she turned to me and asked " What's your name?"
I answered " Kurt Wagner."
Mrs. Radoni put me down as late and said " Sit next to Kristen." as she pointed to a seat in the back of the room.
I nodded as I headed over to my new desk in the back. Good enough for me since being in the back would get me little, if any attention from the teacher. I sat down in my new seat and took out a notebook.
Mrs. Radoni went back to the board and said " Now, we're going to be continuing our lesson on Romeo and Juliet. Today, we're going to read and act out a scene from Act One. Turn to Act One, Scene Five and act out the parts. You'll be doing this with the person next to you."
Kristen turned towards me. She looked lovely from her hazel eyes to her blond locks to her nice body...I really need to focus on something else.
Kristen said " So you know anything about Romeo and Juliet?"
I shrugged and replied " Some people say it's a love story. Others say it's a tragedy. I say it's both but you gotta give Romeo credit."
Kristen looked at me, confused and asked " What do you mean?"
I answered "I mean he actually loved Juliet so much that he wanted to be with her, even in false death."
Kristen asked " Heard you're new. Where're you from, anyway?"
I answered " Munich in Germany. I'm on a foreign exchange program."
Kristen smiled and asked " Do you have a girlfriend, Mister Wagner?"
I smirked confidently and answered with mock innocence "No. Unless you're interested, that is."
She blushed deeply, laughed and said " Hmm...maybe I am." before she wrote something on a piece of paper and tore it off.
Our conversation was interrupted by Mrs. Radoni who said " Mister Wagner, since you're so interested in talking, why don't you tell the class your interpretation of Romeo and Juliet?"
Great. I've only been in the class for twenty minutes and I've already pissed off the teacher. That has to be a record. Normally, it's shorter.
I stood up and said " Romeo and Juliet is both a tragedy and a love story, both genres equally balanced. The moral of Romeo and Juliet is that love is a beautiful thing and it shouldn't be inferred or played with. Otherwise, people may suffer the consequences. Take Romeo for example. He's so deep in love that he's willing to break boundaries and tradition to be with her. He even kills himself to be with her in death when he thinks Juliet is dead."
I was again interrupted by a smiling Mrs. Radoni who said "That's good enough, Mister Wagner. Please sit down and could you and Miss Shelton actually act out the scene?"
Of course, we did no such thing. We talked to each other for the rest of the period. The bell rang and everybody began to leave. Kristen handed me the piece of paper, which has her name and phone number on it.
She whispered in my ear " Call me after school. You might be surprised at how I can be." before she left the room.
Ah, the day isn't even halfway over and it is going good...
I might be doing a series of these. I'll probably do four, one for each season. If you're wondering what else is going to happen in this story, you're going to have to keep reading to find out.
Before anyone asks, no, Kurt won't be with the X-Men. He might talk to or flirt with a few of them but as far as he is concerned, they're on opposite sides. The X-Men don't know that Kurt is Nightcrawler so to them, Kurt is just the new kid from Germany that they don't know.
