Hey everyone!! I am sorry for taking so long on this chapter, there was a lot of stuff going on.


Kitty showed Yukiko "her" way through the mansion. Yukiko was shocked. No one she knew could walk through walls…except ghosts. Maybe Kitty was a real live, um, dead ghost!

Along the way, Kitty was telling her about the mansion and what the X-men (as Yukiko found they called themselves) did in their daily lives.

"Each morning we like wake up early to practice in like the danger room. We practice like controlling our powers and being able to like use them and like how to totally fight with them.

And each of us has like a codename that we like call each other for missions or in the danger room," Kitty explained.

"My name is like Shadowcat," she said. Yukiko thought it was very appropriate. It seemed very ghost-like.

"Do you like have a name that you want to like be called? We could totally come up with some for like you to use." Kitty then asked.

"Kitsune," was the very immediate reply.

"Kitsune…is that like Japanese for like something?"

"Yes. It means fox-spirit," Yukiko answered.

"Oh, that like totally makes sense. So what is your like power exactly?" Kitty asked.

"Well I can create illusions. It's not very strong yet. I can only make people believer in the sight, touch, and sound of the illusion. I'm not able to do taste and smell yet," she said with a note of regret in her voice.

Kitty's eyes widened. "That's like totally amazing! That is like a really awesome power!" she exclaimed.

They got to their room and sat down on the beds.

"So when did you like find out you like had your power?" she asked.

"I knew ever since I was a baby, of course. When did you become a ghost? Were you human once? Or are you some kind of demon?" Yukiko asked excitedly.

Kitty blinked in confusion. 'Ghost? Demon? Oh! It must be some like Japanese thing that she has no idea like how to phrase. Poor girl!'

Yukiko prompted, "You know, how you can walk through walls. Just like a ghost. But you are solid and do not look like you could float away."

"Oh, I'm like not a ghost, or a demon, or any like other weird thing. I'm totally just a human. The walking through walls is like my mutant power. Just like having a tail and creating illusions is like yours!" Kitty explained.

"Hmf. Mutant power. As if I am human and am such a mutant," Yukiko scoffed.

"What! Don't like say that! You're a human just like me and like the rest of us mutants totally are." Kitty exclaimed.

"Well I can understand that you are a human. You don't have a tail or eyes like mine. Or a mother like mine."

"But you are human! Your mother was not right!! Trust me, she doesn't know what you are!" Kitty exclaimed, alarmed. She had never met a mutant that seemed so dead set that they weren't human, let alone a mutant. Even Kurt.

Yukiko sighed. "I'm sorry. It's just that I've never met so many," she hesitated, "mutants, or even people that accepted me for who I am."

"It's like totally fine. No one here will ever reject you for being yourself," Kitty said.

Yukiko looked skeptical. She highly doubted that.

"In fact, you remember Kurt, right? The teleporter?" Kitty asked. Yukiko nodded cautiously. "He like has a tail too, and he doesn't exactly look human in like his real form. And people have totally accepted him, so like, don't worry," Kitty said with a smile.

"Thanks Kitty," Yukiko stated simply. As she said it, Kitty saw something flash across her face that kind of…scared her.

Yukiko looked at the clock. It was 12:07 am. "Oh look, it's past midnight. I think that you should be getting to sleep. It's late."

"Yeah it like is. Good night, Yukiko," Kitty sounded a little nervous.

"Good night, Kitty." And she turned off the light.
