Hi guys! :) Thanks for all of the review, LOVE the feedback! :) As to answer Sarah's questions, I was NOT going to give them different backstories, and I was going to see if I could change the fact I called him a "cat-elf" after some thought. I thought that since he is deeply religious (although I haven't shown that in the previous chapters), he wouldn't want to be called a demon. I called him a cat because of his eyes, fur, and tail. I called him an elf because of his ears and personality; playful and carefree. :) If it annoys you that much, I will GLADLY change it. I don't want any of my readers to be disappointed with anything. :) And yes, I know the characters aren't EXACTLY like they normally are, I just thought it would be nice to see a softer side of some of them (*cough cough* Logan *cough*). Also, in regard to the thought my story would be okay for children to read, I just thought that since Melody is somewhat, seductive, with Kurt, and the fact that I was going to add some curse words and huge, mega, awesome fight scenes with plenty of action in them, I counted this story as T for Teens. Once more, thanks for all of you for taking time out of your days to write a review. It makes me happy to know that people are actually reading what I write… :')

Kurt and Melody sat next to each other on the Blackbird while Logan dorve the big black jet. As the three flew towards the institute on the other side of the world, it was odd watching the morning sun go DOWN. Logan turned on the radio and tuned it to some country music.

"Hope you don't mind my taste in music, little missy. I spent a lot of time around country people, and grew to like this type of music. Half-Pint always begins to complain about it…" Logan chuckled and Melody joined him, even though she wasn't completely sure who "Half-Pint" was.

"No, I'm fine with it. I grew up around all kinds of music, so I'm good with anything." Logan smiled and nodded. Soon the song Ol' Red by Blake Shelton came on. After the first few notes, Logan started humming along, having forgotten the quiet, tired teens in the back. Melody smiled at Logan and waited for him to start belting it out. Well, he did. And it was LOUD. His deep, gravelly voice was well suited for country music, and his gruff attitude was perfect for singing songs with a lot of meaning. Melody smiled at this, and started to materialize an acoustic guitar in her lap. When the guitar was fully formed, the song was over, and some Lady Antebellum song was playing. Logan snorted at the song and turned off the radio, obviously not a fan of the band. Melody picked up the instrument she made and walked up to Logan.

"Maybe we could play some songs together, would you mind that?" Logan jumped and blushed slightly, thinking about how he was singing his rough heart out. Melody noted this and smiled at the older man. "It's fine Logan, you can trust me, I'm not going to tell Kurt." Logan was confused, so he looked back and saw that hi Elf was asleep. Logan sighted in relief and smiled.

"That may be nice kid, but I don't really have time for that stuff."

"Well, maybe you could make time?" she begged. Melody didn't realize it, but to Logan, that sounded like her asking for a date. Blushing madly, Logan suddenly became quiet and simply nodded, looking out of the window of the jet. Melody laughed at the man's shyness and sat in the cockpit. She turned the seat around to face Logan and began to tune the instrument she held in her hands. After it was tuned, she began to strum, humming a song that was on the radio before Ol' Red. Logan smiled at the girl and hummed along, knowing the song very well. This went on for about five minutes, until Logan asked,

"First off, where'd ya get that thing? And second off, where'd ya learn to play it?" Melody was about to respond, when a siren and red lights came on throughout the jet. Kurt jumped awake at the sudden noise, and asked,

"Die Hölle ist das?" Logan knew enough German to answer the question as he fiddled with some nobs and dials.

"Those are the sirens Elf; someone's coming on our tail, and fast. Looks like the Brotherhood." Melody made the instrument disappear as she started going around the jet, making sure everything was held down.

"Anything I can do?" she called to the pilot.

"Not right now Miss Music, I've got this for now." Melody pouted at this answer.

"I've faced more battles than you think old man. I can handle this. Just tell me what to do." Logan smiled at her smart-mouth attitude.

"Alright kid, if you think you can handle it, we may have a fight on our hands. Fit the Elf with some artillery, there should be some in the back. If you need the code, Elf should know it." Logan continued to bark out commands as Melody did them flawlessly, showing her obvious talent at taking and doing orders. Kurt smiled down at her as she tightened his chest covering.

"You're really good at zhis…" Kurt whispered in her ear. "But, tell me, how good are you at taking zhe clothes off?" He said jokingly, knowing she wouldn't consent to doing ANYTHING like that, and if she did, then he wouldn't. Melody blushed slightly and then smiled seductively. She stroked his chest and looked him in the eyes.

"Maybe, but I might want to try it out on someone… Someone, tall, dark, handsome, and blue…" Kurt's face turned a rich purple as Melody laughed and left his side. "C'mon you elf-cat, let's see what Logan needs us to do." Melody ran up to the front of the jet just in time to see Logan freaking out about something. He turned and saw the two teens and yelled,

"What are you waiting for kids? An invitation to the Queen's Ball? We gotta protect the Blackbird; she's the only way home!" Melody nodded and ran to the door of the jet. Forcing it open, she began to climb onto the top of the jet. "The hell does that girl think she's doing? Melody! Get your ass down here!" Logan yelled. Melody then telepathically told him to calm down and that she knew what she was doing. Logan muttered under his breath about kids these days not knowing when to just sit down and wait for orders, and how he was going to give her a good scolding when they were back at the Institute. While that was happening, Kurt was in an absolute panic, just seeing his crush jump out of a jet. He ran to the door and looked for the redhead. She was on top of the Blackbird, waiting for a sign of the enemy. Kurt saw the determined look on her face, and knew it was best just to leave her be. He grabbed a rope and tied it to the inside of the jet, he then teleported up to her and handed her the other end, while trying not to get knocked off himself.

"Here!" he yelled at the top of his lungs. "In case you fall off! Tie zhis around your vaist!" Melody shook her head "no" and Kurt did it for her. "I VILL NOT have you die before I can have a date vith you!" Kurt winked and teleported back into the jet.

"I swear," began Logan, "kids these days are getting wilder and wilder…" he muttered. "Elf! If you go and do that again, I swear, I will force you to clean and wax the Blackbird every day for a month, and have three Danger Room sessions set on level ten every other day, do you hear me?" Kurt nodded meekly as Logan grunted. "Good, now take the controls, they've messed with our radar so we can't see where they are, or what they're doing, the bastards…" Logan waited for Kurt to have his hands on the wheel, and he took off like a gun to the door of the jet. Looking up, he saw Melody standing there, with the rope tied to her waist. Looking behind the tail of the jet, he saw three metal balls flying towards them.

"Crap…" Logan said. "Kurt! They're behind us! I want to see if we can get through this without having to fight them hand to hand." Kurt understood what the older man wanted and began to turn the jet around. "Melody! We're going to turn this thing around, you do the same!" Melody nodded and did as she was told. "Whatever you're planning on doing, it'd better work! I don't want you to die after I just met you! That's going to look bad on my record!" Melody smiled at the joke and started preparing for something grand. "Kurt! Get some of the rockets ready! The same with the lasers!" Kurt prepared the artillery as Logan grabbed the gun that was prepared for Kurt.

Little did he know, Melody had already readied herself for each assailant. She had scanned what was in each metal ball and found that all three of them carried a mutant that she had faced in earlier failed attempts. The first ball contained Sabretooth, the second, Pyro, and the third, Scarlet Witch. She knew everyone of their weaknesses, and planned on getting them out of working condition before they even reached the Blackbird.

She made a small extreme stink bomb that would go off as soon as it was touched for Sabretooth. She made the smell so bad that it would knock him out after two seconds, even if he had a gas-mask on. For Pyro, she made a similar bomb, but it had water instead of stinkiness. The water would make his flame-throwers unusable, therefore, making him unable to fight. And for Scarlet Witch, a simple knockout gas so powerful, it could make an entire factory fall asleep after four seconds. She sent them off, and hoped they would work.
