Prologue- Even if some people don't want to accept it, evolution is a great part about history, from when that fish grew legs and took it's first steps onto land to when giant gorilla's evolved into men and women. Evolution is all around us but it hasn't taken a that great of a step in centuries…until now. This is the story of 8 teenagers who discover they are the next stage of evolution, they are

The New X-Men

Chapter 6- Night

Narrator- Kitty Pryde

The Middle School I go to lets out before the High School does so I saw Bobby, Logan, Jean, and Scott all walk home with bruises and scars.

"The Brotherhood kicked our asses and they recruited a new mutant we could've recruited," Logan explained to me.

"Oh man that sucks," I replied. Even though I had only known them for a month so far, sometimes I think of the older X-men as older siblings, I want to be them but at the same time I'm worried about them. I turned to Bobby, "So Bobby, are you going to show me your powers?"

"Sorry Kitty but I have a huge headache, maybe later," I was disappointed and I decided to head towards my room so I could do my homework when I saw this blue fuzzy thing in the down the wall. At first, I thought it was a cat but then as I got closer I saw it had a jacket and pants on. I remembered one of the teachers at the Academy was blue and furry, his name was Mr. McCoy and he was probably the smartest guy in the school, he also has superhuman strength and durability.

But this other blue thing was much skinnier than Mr. McCoy. I realized it's back was turned to me (it had tail), there was no one else in the hallway. I was pretty scared, "Uh-um h-hello?" I said. Then the creature turned around I saw two huge yellow eyes stare at me. He looked half human-half blue elf demon thing. It had 3 fingers on each hand and 2 toes in front of each foot, one in back. I let out a scream and it did too. And in a second it turned into a cloud of blue smoke and disappeared. It teleported.

Mr. McCoy came running right behind me. "What's wrong Katherine?" he asked. I hate it when people call me Katherine.

"I-I saw a weird blue thing with a tail. He looked like a demon," I was stuttering.

"Oh yes, his name is Kurt Wagner and he is from Germany. The Professor taught him English telepathically. He came to this school a few days before you did, he's even your age,"

"Well why haven't I seen him before?"

"He has been staying in his room, going out only to use the bathroom or get food. He is afraid he will scare the other students with his demon-like appearance. I have been working on a device that will temporally revert his mutation so he can walk amongst a normal crowd without being looking like a mutant,"

"But you are all blue and furry too, don't you want a machine that will do the same?"

"Katherine, everything I want is in this mansion but we want Kurt to have a future after he graduates. And don't think that just because he looks like a monster, it doesn't mean he is. He is a very nice boy. You should probably apologize to him when you get the chance. But, I understand that you have homework to do so I will leave you be. Goodbye Katherine,"

"See you later Mr. McCoy," and we went our separate ways. 2 weeks went by and I didn't see Kurt since the incident. Bobby has settled in to the mansion but has been spending most all of his time in front of the TV. And all of the other Freshman X-men keep complaining about how they couldn't recruit Ororo Munroe.

I couldn't get the mental image of Kurt out of my mind. He scared me but I swear I could see the exact same fear in his eyes when he saw me. I didn't want to talk to him yet I wanted to be around him. And one day I finally got the nerve to enter his room. I knocked on the door.

"Verschwinden Sie," I heard a voice say.

"I don't speak German," I replied.

"Ich spreche Englisch nicht,"

"Ok, I think I heard the word English somewhere in there,"

"Sie sind das Mädchen, das an mir geschreien hat,"

"This is getting old,"

"Jordanien Lurie ist der größte Zuhälter in der Welt,"

"That's it," and I walked through his door.

"Ich denke, dass Chris Claremont in overrated Schreiber ist,"

"You better start speaking English," I said.

"Ok, ok, I give up. What are you doing in my room?" he said.

"I wanted to apologize for screaming at you a few weeks ago,"

"Yeah, I know, I scare a lot of people. Hell, you're probably scared of me right now,"

"Well…"

"Admit it,"

"Yeah, I'm pretty scared, I'm really, really sorry. But Mr. McCoy is working on a machine that will make you look human,"

"What's taking him so long?"

"I don't know,"

"Well it was nice talking to you random girl whose name I don't know but I really want to be alone right now,"

"Oh yeah, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Kitty Pryde,"

"Kätzchen Pryde, nice name,"

"Thanks," I stayed in Kurt's room for about 2 hours. We talked about how we both grew up and our favorite movies and TV shows. But that was kind of useless because everything he liked was German. After a while, the doorbell rang and Jean sent me a message telepathically saying I needed to come downstairs quick. I told Kurt I would be right back.

Ororo Munroe was at the door and she only had one thing to say to us, "The Brotherhood plan to blow up the High School on Friday,"
