I do not own anything. I made a few changes in this story from last time

Out in the country there was a party going on at a small fast food restaurant. Staying away from the party and being on the deck of the restaurant was a two haired girl wearing green and black. She looked at the party then turned around leaning on the railing. She sighed and closed her eyes. "Body-snatchers that is the only explanation man." The dark haired jock said to his blond haired friend. The blond guy saw the girl leaning on the ledge and stared at her. "My good buddy Cody is now a pod person. Gone in an evening from bad to sad, flame to lame. Nurse, he's coded! Personality Paddles, stat!"

The blond guy moves out of his friend's grip and says, "Oh, come on. I'm just, you know, pickin my moment. Taking it slow."

"Cody, I've seen glaciers move faster than you. There she is. The girl you've been staring at all week. Please tell me you at least know her name." He turns to look at the girl then moves his eyes back at Cody. Cody shrugs. The black haired guy hits his head saying, "You lame-o! This ends now! Come on!"

The girl hears them then turns around asking, "Can ah help you?"

"Uh...dance. I mean, would you like to? With me that is together..." Cody asked nervously.

"Ah'm really just hanging out here and..." She noticed Cody getting upset. She sighs, "Aw, hey, why not? After all where is the harm in one dance?" Cody high fives his best friend and follows her into the restaurant.

Meanwhile at the house where the girl lives at. A woman named Destiny had a vision. "No! Don't touch him! Oh my dear child!"

Back at the party the girl was having a good time dancing with Cody. Cody's friend whispers, "Get closer. Make your move." Cody gets pushed and falls right on top of her.

Cody get up and says, "Hey, I'm sorry." He grabs her wrist and feels something going on.

She rubs her head as Cody faints to the floor. She starts seeing images in her head. "My head. All these images." She gets up and sees Cody passed out on the floor with his eyes opened. "What's happening to me? What am I? Who am I?" She asked no one in particular.

Cody's friend leans down and starts shaking him. "Cody? Cody! What's wrong?" He turns to the girl asking, "What did you do to him?"

She starts running away. A guy blocks her way only to get pushed by her. "Whoa, I thought only Cody had moves like that."

Back at the house Destiny was talking to someone. "That's not what I said. I see pathways, probabilities. I predicted what form her mutant powers would take, not when they would manifest. Yeah, I did take procautions. The phony skin condition, the way she dressed. But she's a teenage girl. I couldn't keep her in isolation." She sighs, "Of course you're coming. I know. And the others? Xavier's team? They're coming too."

At the institute Logan was crawling through the vents and landed on his feet while Storm said, "Impressive, you got past the automated defenses by using the air vents, but you won't get past me." She wind it blow hard through the window. He gets back into the vent making Storm smile. "Testing me, Hmm? Alright then, it's time to remember why they call me Storm!" She made a storm appear and made water go through the vents pushing him into the danger room. "You looked a little flushed." He jumped to get sprayed with foam.

"Now that was cold." He told her.

"I'm just warming up." She told him pressing a button making a gun appear.

He jumped and brought out his claws. He destroyed the machine and landed back on his feet. "Gonna connect first. Got any more party favors?" He asked then saw a three claw machine come out of the ground. He ducked when it started spinning and jumped over the next one. He started to claw the machine's main part.

The machine started to slow down when Xavier said, "Stop! It is, at the moment, as much as we can afford, Wolverine."

Wolverine takes off his mask saying, "Hey, when I give a demo, I give a demo."

Scott looked out at the machines. "Is that demo as in demolish or demonstration? What was the point?"

"The point, young cyclops, was to teach you about finding weak points in sophisticated security systems." Storm said walking up to him.

"Heh, you have to get the memo Scott. I figured that out just by watching Logan do that." Danny said crossing his arms.

"Well that's right bub, and I say ours need a little work." Wolverine said coming into the control room with them.

"Dat was tight. I give it two dumbs up." Kurt said hanging upside down pointing his finger up or in this case down.

"The vents were easily breached. Gonna need to fix that. Maybe electrify them or install poisonous gas sprayers."

"Wolverine..." Storm said calmly.

He crossed his arms. "All right, all right, knock out gas, then."

Kitty shivered, "Is it just me or is anyone else seriously creeped by all this?" everyone stares at her minus Danny who decided not to comment on what she said. "Oh, right. It's just me? Great." She crossed her arms.

Kurt waved at Kitty saying, "Relax Kitty. You'll be fine." He teleported himself right next to her. "We're right beside." He teleported again holding the popcorn with his tail. "Popcorn?" She grunted in frustration. "Whoops. heh heh sorry." He jumped off the table. "Next time I'll honk before I 'port."

"Whatever." She crossed her arms looking away from him. "Uh guys if it is no biggie to you, I'm going to like drop out." She went through the floor leaving them in the room."

"And Kurt strikes out again." Danny said making everyone look at him. "What? He keeps on trying to get her to notice him in a different way."

"She just isn't in to me like she is wid you Danny." Kurt said shaking his head.

Danny raised an eyebrow, "What's that suppose to mean?"

"She just needs time Kurt. She'll come around eventually." Jean said putting a hand on his shoulder.

"X men we have an emergency. Scott get the Blackbird ready to launch and since it's a weekend assemble the whole team." Xavier said.

"Yes sir, what's the mission?" Scott asked.

"Cerebro has detected a new mutant in Caldecot County, Mississippi. My mental impressions from the scene indicate a highly disturbed individual. Our mutant is a danger to herself and possibly others as well." Xavier explained as the girl was running through the city onto the street.

She stopped when a car was coming and saw it hit a lamp post. "Hey! What are you nuts? Crazy kid!" The car driver yelled at her while she ran away.

"X men, we have a Rogue." She kept on running while the X men got onto the Blackbird.

Kurt starts the Blackbird and drives out of the hanger and flies it towards their destination. "Stealth mode stable. Leveling off at 10,000 feet." Kurt said holding the steering wheel.

"Steady. Now hold it right there and...you've got it." Scott said then gave Kurt a thumbs up. "Nice job Kurt. You'll make a pilot yet"

"Danks." Kurt said then leaned back in his chair grabbing it with his feet.

"Or maybe not." Scott muttered. He shook his head, "I logged our flight plan with the FAA. We're clear through to Jackson. We'll take the van from there." He turned to everyone while saying that.

Xavier smiled, "Good. You're picking up logistics quickly, Scott."

Kitty leaned in her chair and said, "Scott seems so, like together. So cool, and he's kinda cute." She leaned on her hand staring at Scott.

"Cute? Uh, stiff maybe. Exactly definitely, but..." Jean looked at Scott curiously. "Hmm, you know from a certain angle."

"Plus Danny has a way with danger. It's like he'll risk his life to do anything even if it kills him." Kitty looked at Danny who was just looking out the window trying to listen to what they were saying.

"Now I haven't seen him do much battle in real life yet. Sure we seen him fight in the danger room, but why do you say that?"

"He told me to go and not worry about him. I didn't know what powers he had. He was going to fight Lance and told me to get out of there when the building was collapsing. Now it's like he's going further with his business. He still acts like himself, but he feels like more of a protector than anything else."

"Kitty, he isn't a risk taker. Sure he'll go fight, but he wouldn't risk his life for someone he doesn't know yet unless he has a reason."

Kurt however heard all of that and raised an eyebrow about the comment Danny got. "He's a risk taker? I never thought of that, but I got to get Kitty's attention." He told himself then teleported out of the chair and onto the top of the plane. He smiled at everyone who was looking at him in disbelief. He started to lose his balance and came flying towards the front.

He teleported back into the Blackbird and crashed into Kitty. "Kurt, the Blackbird is not a place to be fooling around. You frightened Kitty." Xavier said.

Kitty pushed him off. He got up and apologized. "Just like stay away from me." Kitty got up and left Kurt back there.

Logan watched her walk towards Scott. "Kids."

A jet landed at the airport and stopped right next to the limo. Bayville's principle or known as Mystique walks off the plane when the door is open for her. She walks down the steps and into the limo. "You made good time Raven." Destiny said to her.

"Our organization's mysterious founder has certain resources, Irene." Mystique said then transformed herself to original form. "What happened? I left the girl in what I thought was your safekeeping."

"At the school dance, her mutant powers manifested, and she accidentally made physical contact with a local boy." Destiny closed her eyes behind her glasses.

"Absorbing his memories and physical abilities. Wonderful. We keep her hidden away in this backwater for the better part of five years, and in five minutes it all falls apart." She looks at Destiny. "We cannot lose her, especially not to Xavier. She possesses the potential for limitless power." She backs away from her. "You can see the future, Irene. Where would she go?"

"Home...or what she thinks is home."

The girl walks up to the house where Cody was living since her memories were from him. She grabs the key from the top of the house and unlocks the door.

"This really necessary?" Logan asked waiting in the van in front of the hospital where Cody was put in.

"Yes Logan." Xavier put his hands to his head and says, "The boy Cody is the key to finding our Rogue, but he's unconscious, and his mind is elusive. To isolate his memory patterns, I need someone on the inside."

Jean walks into the room wearing a nurse's outfit. "He'll be okay right? You'll help him?" Cody's friend asked her.

She put her hand on his head and said, "Yes we will." She connected her mind with Xavier, and they found something out.

The limo pulled up and Destiny asked, "Now what? You won't hurt her, will you?" She put a hand on Mystique's shoulder. "After all Raven she's your..."

"I know, Irene. I know." Mystique said making her back away a bit with her arm. "Trust me, whe will come to us willingly, given the right insentive." She transforms into Wolverine.

The girl looks at the picture in the yearbook. She flips a page. "All this is, uhh, me...mine." She closes the book and walks up to the mirror and doesn't see the person in the memories she just got but sees her ordinary self. "Which me am ah?" She pushes the pictures and trophies over and sees 'Wolverine' at the door. "Who-who are you, and what do you want?"

"You girlie...I want you." The claws came out, and 'he' went after the girl. She dodges the kick coming at her and watches the closet door get busted down. "Stand still, and I'll make it quick." Mystique says coming out of the closet still as Wolverine. "You're dealing with the X-men now, and you ain't got a chance."

The girl picks up a board and asks, "X-men? Ah don't understand. Ah just want yah to leave me alone." She hits 'him' with the board and runs out of the room. 'He' gets up and goes after her.

She runs down the stairs and hears a howl. 'Wolverine' got to the top of the stairs and said, "One more turn of the screw," Mystique jumps off the stairs and turns herself into Storm, "and you'll come running into my arms."

Meanwhile in an alleyway Wolverine, Nightcrawler, and Shadowcat were looking around trying to find the rogue mutant. "So does this, like, bite or what?" Kitty asked.

"The prof says the girl's mind is confused and difficult to pinpoint." Wolverine says then looks behind a dumpster. "So keep looking." He looks inside the dumpster while the other two are just staring at him a little scared.

"Now I wish someone would have gone with Danny. He's lucky to work by himself." Kitty whispered to Nightcrawler.

"I totally agree wid you..." He started to agree then he saw Logan sniffing. "Was? Got a scent?"

Logan looked at Kurt and said, "Yeah, I smell fear."

The girl starts running down the backyard with 'Storm' following her. "One well-placed lightning bolt...one ex mutant." The girl jumped over the fence and yelled in fear.

The girl lands on the ground and faces Irene. "Rogue, it's me Irene. Try and remember."

"Uh, who? Wait..Irene. Yes, but...I'm so confused." Rogue put her hand to her head trying to put her memories together. She starts shaking her head. "Strange thoughts in my head...people chasing me."

"Easy, easy honey. The police are coming. The X-men will not risk a confrontation." Danny stayed invisible in the air and saw the commotion.

"Oh man, Rogue is in trouble, and I don't have time to warn the others." He whispered to himself.

"The X-men?"

Irene stretched out her hand. "Yes. Mutant hunters, now hurry! I have a friend who can help you. I'll take you to her."

Rogue grabbed her hand saying, "Ah don't know. All this is happening so fast. Ah don't..." She turns her head and sees Wolverine, Nightcrawler, and Kitty running up the alleyway. "It's him!" Rogue gasped in fear. "The one who attacked me. Run Irene run!" She loses one of her gloves to Irene while running away.

The three run after her. "That's got to be her."

"Please let me be." She jumps over the fence. Danny takes his chance and flies down to go after her. He notices Kurt stopping Wolverine and continues flying after her. "I just want to be..." She turns around and sees no one there.

Danny made himself visible behind her and sighs, "You're confused big time huh?"

She turns at him and asks, "What do you want?"

Danny scratches the back of his head. "To be honest we just want to help you make a right decision. You have a powerful gift, and if you keep on running and touch random people you will be more confused than you were. I just want to help you not to be confused."

"Are you a part of the mutant hunters?"

Danny raised an eyebrow. "I never heard of the mutant hunters."

She calmed down a bit. "Why do you care then?"

"I also have special powers." He made a small green ball be created in the palm of his hand. "Just come with me, and I'll show you to the team that I work with to help people like you."

"Ah don't know." Kurt was standing behind them in his disguise to look normal and smiled. "Ah know that ah need help, but ah'm being chased down by some people. They call themselves the X-men."

"Ve only want to help not hunt you down." Kurt said surprising her.

"Half pint, I'll show him." Kitty muttered coming throuugh the fence. She runs and catches Rogue.

"Kitty no!" Kurt yelled then watches her get pushed off by Rogue. He grabs Rogue who starts struggling. She hits his watch then sees him turn to his normal look. She gasps and pushs his face with her bare hand and absorbs some of his energy. She gasps and teleports herself out of the mess.

"Oh great, Kitty, you make sure Kurt's okay. I have to talk to Rogue if she lets me near her again." Danny said and flies after Rogue.

Kurt faints and falls on the ground as Kitty says "Aah, Nightcrawler?" He groans in his state of mind. "Nightcrawler? Danny why did you leave me here?"

Meanwhile Rogue landed on her feet at the cemetery. "What just happened?" She asked herself surprised. "Where am I? And ich verstehen deutscher." She looked around. "I can speak German?" She put her hand to her throat surprised again. "The fuzzy one...Kurt's his name. I'm him. Like I was Cody. I think I'm catching on now." She looked at her hands then looked around. "But how did I?" She teleported herself onto a roof of one of the small buildings in the graveyard. She closed her eyes and teleported again and again for a few times. She starts enjoying it then falls when she is on a bench that broke beneath her. She goes back to being sad. "When is this all going to end?"

Danny walked up to her with sadness in his eyes. "I'm afraid it might not end." He grabbed her bare hand and pulled her up.

"Thanks, ah never got yah name last time before that girl came and grabbed me."

"The name's Danny." He took out his glove hand and was going to shake hands with her.

She looked at his hand and shook it with her non gloved hand. "Why are they after me? Ah didn't do anything wrong."

"I sort of know what it feels like. When I first got my powers, I decided to tell my parents a couple days later. They rejected me. Your mother didn't reject you, but she might know..." He stopped talking when he heard foot steps. 'I don't see my friends, but...' He noticed someone hiding in the shadows. "I hear something. I'll be right back. Please don't get into trouble. The one thing we need is for you to lose control again." She nodded and watched him leave. She sat down and heard people walking towards her.

She looked up when she heard someone say hi. "Do-do ah know you?" She put her hands on her head when it started to look at Kurt's memories. "Uhh, these memories, I'm so confused."

"Yeah I know. I can relate to what you are going through." Jean said to her a little worried.

"Jean. You're Jean Grey. You're like the others!" Rogue got up and backed away.

"Wait. If you know who I am, then you know I won't hurt you. Look. It's tough to go in solo. Hey, zero pressure, but if you want to talk more, you can reach me any time with this communicator." Jean held out the communicator then moved it towards Rogue with her mind.

She grabbed it and said, "Latest fashion accessory huh?"

"We all have one." Storm said which made Rogue see Scott and Storm.

Her eyes widened in fear. Danny stood far off and didn't see anyone. He turned around and saw the three trying to talk with Rogue. Rogue starts running away from them. He then notices Mystique at a distance smiling evilly. His eyes widen in fear and flies after Rogue in a hurry. "I got to make sure that Mystique doesn't get what she wants."

Rogue started to shake her head in frustration and heard someone coming into the room where she was. Danny tapped her on the shoulder and shushed her. "We might have a problem." He whispered to her.

"Why are you here? How did you find meh?" She asked him quietly.

"I'm able to walk through walls, disappear, and fly. Right now is not a good time to explain what powers I have."

They heard 'Scott' jump into the room and looked at him. "Thought you could escape us did you? The X-men don't leave loose ends." 'Scott' said to her. He knocked over one of the statues and kept on walking closer. He pushed another down right towards Rogue and Danny.

"Hey man, I say that you need to knock it off." Danny shot one of his ecto blasts at 'Scott.' 'Scott flew back and hit the wall. Danny flew up to him and got kicked right in the chest and fell to the ground. He was grabbed by 'Scott' then got thrown into the wall. He hit the wall hard and said, "Rogue run."

She saw 'Scott' walking closer to her. She ran at Danny asking, "What about you?"

Danny shook his head, "Don't worry about me. Hurry!" She nodded and ran out the front door. He got off the wall and looked at 'Scott.' "So I finally get to meet you face to face for once."

"So you figured it out." Mystique said transforming to her normal self. "I'm surprised the professor finally decided to tell one of his students about me."

Danny dusted the dirt off his shoulders. "Yeah, well when I saw you recruit Lance back where Kitty lived. I knew you were up to something, and I found out that you want to start a group called the 'Brotherhood.'"

"Very good, but you are not going to have her join your team. She will be joining my team soon enough." They heard thunder going on outside.

He growled and ran outside seeing Rogue in the air trying to control the weather. "This is bad." He saw Scott grab Storm and get out of the water by Jean's mmind. "I have to stop her." He flew up towards Rogue hearing her cry.

"Too much power! Ah can't control it! I have to...Ahh!" Danny grabbed her arm as she teleported out of the area.

Jean landed them safely on the ground. Scott and Jean saw the others minus Danny "What do you think happen to the Rogue?" Scott asked Xavier.

"Uhh, she's gone...somewhere. Her mind is a jumble. I can't trace it." Charles said a little upset. "But I strongly suspect the hand at work here.

Logan sniffed, "Mystique. She can change her body but not her scent." He was determined.

"Then we have to go after her." Kitty said getting ready for a fight.

"There's been enough damage done today, and the girl must come of her own free will or not at all. We must first tend to our own. Let's just hope Danny had more luck talking to her than we did." Xavier said when Storm and Nightcrawler were coming back to their senses.

Kurt rubbed his head. He looked around saying, "Looks like I missed quite a party." He notices Kitty getting happy.

"Kurt, you're all right!" She said to him as he was about to faint again. She caught him, saying, "Easy you fuzzy elf, everything is going to be just fine." He looked at Scott who was mouthing something to him but didn't catch it. He was even more surprised when she snuggled into his arm.

Danny landed on the ground with Rogue who went into unconsciousness. He turned invisible right before Mystique and Irene arrived. 'I might as well be going back to the others.'

The next day Rogue arrived at her school and walked into the principle's office. The principle greeted her saying, "Welcome to Bayville High...I'm sure you'll be very happy here...happy and safe."

"Sure, thank you." Rogue said then walked away. She looked at the device that Jean gave her then sighed. She continued on and saw someone she recognized but looked different. She walked up to him asking, "Do I know you from somewhere?"

The guy smiled, "Hey Rogue, it's good to see you again." He shut his locker then looked at her.

"Danny? Why do you look different from before?" She raised an eyebrow.

He looked around then back at her. "It's one of my powers. We should be getting to class so we don't get into trouble. I'll see you later okay." He walked off waving goodbye.

"Okay." She whispered then walked to her new locker.

Just to be clear Danny had gotten his powers when he was sixteen not fourteen. I changed the age for a good reason. I'm not telling you guys why though.
