Scott saw the intruder and immediately lifted his glasses so that the red hot beam was fired at them. The person didn't know what was going to hit them. Momentarily he was blinded by his own power but after a few seconds he replaced his glasses and looked around. The wall had a scorch mark but the person wasn't there. They had jumped aside!

Artemis lunged to the side just as the beam was about to hit her, she fell to the ground with a large thud and after a few moments the light faded and a scorch mark was one the wall behind where she had been standing.

"Jesus…" she said to herself but then got into a full blown rage, "What the hell do you think you're doing! Xavier does not have students or teachers or whatever blasting people on sight!"

"What the hell do you know about Xavier?! The WMGH will never get in here!" the man screamed just as he was about to raise his glasses again when another man charge down the stairs right at Artemis but got hit by the beam instead.

He was flung across the room taking her with him, they finally rested up against a wall.

"Get off me you great lummox!" she screamed as she struggled underneath this strange man who had strange claws extending from his knuckles. Artemis was getting so agitated when she heard her attacker approaching she panicked and lost control. A great beam of white light flooded the room. After some struggling she managed to move him off of her and regain control.

Her attacker looked at her, "you're a mutant?"

"No…I'm a chimpanzee…" she told him not trying to stop the sarcasm in her voice, "of course I'm a god dam mutant"

The man looked her up and down and noticed her ring, it was a silver band that looked like it was covered in something, a liquid he couldn't make out, "so you're not WMHG?"

Artemis's look said it all, 'do I look like someone who is going to charge into a school and kill all the students? On my own?'

"Sorry…for…attacking you like that…my names Scott" he said offering a hand out to shake.

She looked up at him, and tried to see the eyes behind the glasses then lowered her eye level to his hand before raising an eyebrow.

"Oh…" Scott said as he withdrew his arm.

Artemis winked at him just because she wanted to and had to stop herself smiling as small pink circles appeared on his cheeks before growing and spreading down his neck, to save him some embarrassment she turned her attention to the other man laying on the floor, "What's up with your friend?"

"oh…he's not a friend…and he'll be fine" Scott told her but it didn't stop her kneeling down and checking his pulse, she felt it and was about to pull away when all of a sudden the man woke up and grabbed hold of her wrist. He pulled at her as if he was going to throw her across the room but she resisted and pulled back. She caught him off guard and pulled him to his feet as she got up. He let go and they stood there facing each other.

"Logan…" Scott warned.

"Hit her…" he said referring to his beams.

"Logan?" Artemis said raising her fists to her face, "Good I always like to know the name of the person I'm gonna beat to a pulp…"

"You think you can win in a fight against me?" Logan asked extending his claws.

"I know I can beat you…" she told him loosening her ring.

"Logan stop it" Scott said.

"No…" he said raising his fist and pushing it right at Artemis but she managed to dodge quite easily so that he only slashed the air but that meant her ring flew off her finger and landed on the ground.

"Logan! She's not the enemy!" Scott told him.

The man looked her up and down and calmed down, "really? She looks like she knows how to look after herself…"

"Thanks…" Artemis piped up.

"No problem…" he said as she bent over to pick up her ring, examining her tight fitting jeans.

The look didn't go unnoticed by Artemis, she turned around and slapped him full across the face, "if you look at my ass again I'll make sure I dislocate your jaw!"

Logan looked ready to retaliate while Scott stifled a laugh until the Professor arrived.

"Artemis!" he said in amazement, "I didn't think we'd see you again"

" Professor X!" she said with a smile on her face, "to be honest neither did I…but things change and with its not only America where the WMHG are having an impact…"

"I know…I see you have met two of our teachers, Scott Summers and Logan" he told her.

"Yeah…met them…" she said through clenched teeth.
