Disclaimer: I own Dan that's about it. Everything else belongs to Marvel and the movie people for X2 X-men United. Some of the quotes you see in the text came from the X2 novel by Chris Claremont.

If you have any questions about Dan that are not answered in this, you can either try reading my X-men Evolution fic, Einstein or just ask me in a review and I'll try to answer them. I know some people do not like reading things where authors add their own characters in to the story but I hope you like this one at least. I would also like to thank Meremew and Clear Shadow for their help in coming up with a title. And thanks to Clear Shadow for proofreading and correcting this and other chapters.

Thanks to Cherry blossomien and thesecretecharmedwriter for their reviews.

It took Dan a moment to realize it was Rahne, she had him pinned on his back to the ground. "Hey get off me you hairball!" he said laughing. Rahne gave her tail a wag then with a growl pushed him back to the ground. "Ok, ok, ok" Dan said putting his hands up "I give, I give!" With a satisfied nod, Rahne jumped off him, but not before giving him one more push to the ground with her paw. While she had her back to him, Dan lifted her up with his TK, she hovered a few inches off the ground when she turned around to look at him he was grinning, he shrugged and lowered her gently back to the ground. "Truce?" Dan asked holding out his hand, Rahne looked at it for a moment then put her paw on his hand and they shook on it. Suddenly Dan was hit with a telepathic blast from the Professor. "Ok, ok" Dan said aloud. "Rahne I gotta go back to the house, the prof. wants to talk to me." Rahne cocked her head and transformed back into a girl.

"About teasin Jamie?" she asked, Dan shook his head

"No I think it's about the museum," he pointed to his lip, which was still tender from earlier.

"Ye, you an' me got to talk about that too." Dan grinned

"It was nothing I swear just some big shots at the museum out to make a quick buck. I can take care of myself." Rahne gave him a look that obviously said 'yeah right.'

"Ok I'm going to go find Tracy see if she's ok." Dan nodded and started to walk back towards the mansion. "Dan wait a second." Rahne said running to him,

"Yeah?" he asked facing her.

"Would you do me a favor?"

"If I can." He replied

"I know you think you can take care of yourself. Jus' please be careful. I don't want anything to 'appen to you."

"Wow morbid much?" Dan asked grinning, Rahne looked at him seriously, her brown eyes wide with fear. "Hey, come on what's wrong, why so scared all of a sudden?" he put his arm around her shoulder and hugged her. "This aint the Rahne I know, she's not scared of nothing."

"I'm jus' worried, you know with everything that 'appening. I 'ave this terrible feeling something's going to 'appen, to us, to the school."

"I think this whole attack on the President is getting to all of us." Dan said thoughtfully. "But don't worry, you and me we'll look out for each other right?" Rahne nodded and rested her head on his shoulders. Dan held her to him staring over her shoulders out into space. He could feel it too. Rahne was right something was going to happen, happen to them, to the school, too the world, something was going to change their lives forever. He just couldn't place what it was. "Hey Rahne?" Dan whispered.

"Ye?"

"Are we officially a couple now?" she looked at him and for a quick moment Dan thought she was going to laugh at him. But instead she leaned close to him and kissed him gently on the cheek. "Does that mean you'll think about it?" she grinned and took his hand.

"Maybe." She said, "I'll see ya later." And with that Rahne transformed back into her wolf form and took off down the path. Dan watched her for a moment then headed the opposite way back to the mansion.
