Sorry for the short break my life has been kind of hectic recently. Again sorry but hope you enjoy it.
Five years later
"Don't worry professor Kurt and I have got this jerk," Cyclops aka Scott said into his comm. He looked over to his blue furred friend, who nodded and smiled.
Kurt ran forward and disappeared into a plumb of red smoke and the smell of brimstone. He reappeared a few yards ahead of Scott sitting on top of the rouge mutant.
The small and weak boy struggled underneath the much stronger Kurt who sniggered at him.
"Ok Kyle…. This doesn't have to get ugly but you have to pay for what you did. You can't just kill someone and not expect a punishment," Scott said running up to cuff the mutant in special handcuffs designed by a Mr. Hank McCoy, however what he didn't realize was how deeply his words had cut his friend.
Kurt hopped off the Mutant and mumbled something about a goodbye and I'll see you later and before Scott could respond Kurt was gone with a BAMF.
LINE BREAK!
The breeze rustled his hair faintly as he sat hunched like a gargoyle on the ledge of the building. He stared down at the people. The people who looked and acted normal.
'I killed someone….. I killed a lot of people. Doesn't that mean I should get punished too?'
Kurt sat back and pondered these thoughts and found that they surprised him.
'I've never thought like this before. I've never thought about any kind of retribution for my actions. Magneto had always told me… Magneto… The Professor. Yeah that has to be it,' he said realizing it for the first time. He had changed drastically in the five years that he had joined the X-men. He had become kinder and more trusting of people, especially non-mutants. He smiled softly, he had even found someone to love him.
He stood up and let the strong wind blow his hair. 'Yes,'he decided, 'The X-men are the best thing to happen to me. Neither Magneto nor my own mother treated me better than those people I call friends,' He sighed and allowed himself to fall over the edge.
LINE BREAK!
Kitty Pride walked onto the roof just to see the man she loved falling off the ledge. Her eyes flew open and she ran to the edge, "KURT!"
LINE BREAK!
The wind whipped through his hair and forced tears to his eyes but despite this he smiled. He loved this exhilarating feeling of motion. He felt at peace at that moment but just then his keen ears picked up someone screaming his name. He flipped so he was facing the sky and saw the slowly fading view of Kitty in the distance. He smiled and disappeared in a puff of red smoke. When he reappeared Kitty was on him in a second. She hugged him and kissed him as if making sure he was still there.
"Kitty? Kitty what's-" But she cut him off, "KURT! Oh my GOD! DON"T YOU DARE EVER DO THAT TO ME AGAIN! DO YOU HEAR ME! NEVER!" She said and she collapsed into him sobbing.
"Oh… Kitty I'm…. I'm so sorry….. I wasn't in any danger," she looked up from his chest, "promise." He smiled a dazzling smile.
"You had better not because if you do I will kill you," she said and Kurt knew without a doubt that she would.
LINE BREAK!
"How is Kurt Logan?" The wheel chair ridden man asked from behind his desk.
The much less cleanly cut man looked at the Professor, "The elf is doing fine why?"
"Well recently I have felt a great unrest within him and he seems worried about something," Xavier said.
"He's probably worried that Kitty will kill him if she ever catches him jumping off buildings again," Wolverine said smirking.
"Logan that was over two weeks ago; no…. it's something else….. something more," the Professor said distantly.
"Well you know I'll just have to keep an eye out for the Elf and see if-," But a startled look from the professor stopped him.
"There is someone in Kurt's room with him," Xavier said urgently.
"Someone! Someone like who?" Logan asked.
"Someone not good," the Professor said cryptically. "Go and…." But Logan was already out the door.
Running down the hall he passed Jean and Scott walking together. Seeing the urgency in the normally stoic man they both ran to follow him.
Finally they got to Kurt's room and burst through the door. Logan entered claws unsheathed but quickly sheathed them when he saw the room was empty.
"Logan what is going on," Scott asked running into the room followed by Jean.
Logan said nothing but held up a small note.
Dear X-men and friends,
I must say that this is goodbye. Watch yourselves and take care of eachother.
Do not follow me
Your friend,
Kurt aka Nightcrawler
