Part 3
Meanwhile Back at School...
Rogue was alone at her locker getting, her books for her next class after skipping last period for lunch with her friend Misty. "Oh, there you're girlie! I got loads to tell you,"said Misty. "What is it Misty?,"said Rogue as she turned her head towards, her friend. "Stupid damn principal gave me freaking, a detention after school today,for skipping because I wasn't in class at all today!"said Misty. "He did?! That sucks!"said Rogue. "Yeah, it is...but that's not all girlie your friend Scott wanted me to tell you, that Mr. Andrews wants to have a word with you,"said Misty.
"Oh crap, I'm probably in trouble for skipping just like you are,"said Rogue. "Calm down girlie, he didn't say that. Maybe it's got to do with an assignment or something? I don't know?" said Misty. Rogue then closed up her locker with books in her hands to her chest. "Misty, I just hope that he doesn't end up calling, the Professor X about me skipping class today,"said Rogue. "Look, like I said before it's probably just nothing,"said Misty as she tried once again to reassure her friend that everything was going to be alright. Rogue then took a deep breath and then out, just to calm herself down a little bit.
Things were starting to run through her head skipping school with her friend and so on. Rogue then pushed it all aside and then said,"Okay, let's hope for both oursakes I don't get in trouble,"said Rogue. "At least you don't, have to worry about after school detention. The principal probably already called my parents, at work for skipping class today,"said Misty. "Sorry you had gotten in trouble, Misty I wish I could have been there, to defend you,"said Rogue trying to lighten the mood. "I know..."said Misty as she nodded her head. "But I'm seventeen, I think I can handle the principal,"said Misty with a smile and a wink. "I know, I just hate seeing my friend in trouble that's all,"said Rogue.
"Tell you what how about me and you after school, both of us deal with what we have to do. How about me and you hang out or something?"said Misty. "Yeah sounds like a great idea,"said Rogue. "If anything changes, I'll text you after school okay?"said Rogue. "Okay girlie sounds like a plan to me and I'll do the same if anything comes up,"said Misty. "Okay, talk to you later Misty,"said Rogue. So, in the mean time both Rogue and Misty left onto their next class.
Meanwhile back At the Xavier Institute.
"Still thinking about that new, mutant aren't you?" said Logan. "Perhaps,"said Charles. As the elevator closed behind both Logan and Charles as they went up. "Well, don't over think yourself there Charles. I still think that there's something, wrong with that thing I'm telling you,"said Logan. "All my years when I first created Cerebro, it's never acted like this before. I've had plenty of success being able to track and locate new mutants,"said Charles.
"Charles it's probably about time you invest in getting that thing, fix or getting a whole new program,"said Logan. "Cerebro works just as fine as it ever did,"said Charles as he used his eclectic wheelchair and wheeled himself out of the elevator and right into the main hallway. Logan then walked the floor next right out of the elevator after Charles.
"Ah there you're just the person, I'm looking for,"said Storm. "Charles you have a phone call." "Thank you Storm," said Charles. As he nodded his head and wheeled away into the next room to take the phone call. Leaving both Storm and Logan in the hallway.
"You two have been down in there, for quite awhile,"said Storm. "Yeah, well Charles thinks he's located some new mutant but Cerebro has been acting up,"said Logan. "Oh? How so?"said Storm. "Not quite sure, but I kept on telling him that maybe there is something, wrong with it and that he should invest in getting a whole new program or something,"said Logan. "A whole new program? but I thought Cerebro was working well and I mean just the other day Charles located a new mutant somewhere, I believe it was in Mississippi or Ohio?"said Storm.
"Yeah, well, things tend to change or in some cases' act up when it comes to Cerebro it's unpredictable,"said Logan. "Well Storm like I said I think that there is something, wrong with it 'cause the next minute it locates a new mutant the next the signal goes off. Charles thinks, that this new mutant can easily turn on and off their powers without being detected,"said Logan. "That to me sounds rather strange,"said Storm. "Yes,"said Logan."Now, if you excuse me I'd got, some business to take care of,"said Logan. "Okay then. We'll chat about this with the Professor later,"said Storm. Logan then nodded his head. So, both Storm and Logan went their separate ways.
Later after School..
Rogue and Misty left school that day. And Misty was glad, that detention was over and done with. But Misty knew she was about to face the music at home with her parents. "I'm so going to be grounded,"said Misty. "You? I got a write up from Mr. Andrews and that's not all he's already called Professor X, about me skipping class. I got detention as well.. And there goes my Saturday,"said Rogue. "At least we still have each other,"said Misty trying to lighten the mood. Rogue then laughed. "Yeah, I know,"said Rogue. "I'll see you around call me if you can okay?"said Misty. "Yeah...if the Professor let's me,"mumbled Rogue. Rogue and Misty both walked off separately home.
On the way home Rogue walked by herself, she knew unlike Misty she too was about, to face the music herself another day of a life of a teenager being grounded. Rogue thought to herself what could possibly lie ahead, of her? She had a gut feeling it wasn't going to be good. When Rogue arrived at home back at the institute the Professor and stood there in his wheel chair along with Hank. "You have alot of explaining, to do Rogue,"said Charles.
"I got a phone call today from a teacher that you skipped class today! I am very disappointed in you Rogue! There will be no phone calls between you and Misty, and you will go to and from school, and any where else you have to go through me,"said the Professor. "Do, I make myself clear?"said Charles. "Yes, Prof..."said Rogue. "That's not all, you have to make up today's homework for Mr. Andrews class and write a 1,000 word essay,"said Hank. Rogue cursed in her head thinking how stupid, it all was. First her friend gets in trouble and now this. "Whatever...I'm going to my room,"said Rogue. So, then Rogue left and went straight to her room.
