I stared at the island from the Blackbird, Magneto squeezed my hand, I turned and looked at him worried. He gave me a comforting smile and let me lean into his chest, Toad was jumping around the Blackbird making funny noises causing Rogue to snicker, and Logan to growl. Xavier and Storm were in the front of the jet controlling it.

"Are we there yet?" Toad asked for the seventh time jumping on the back of Logan's seat. Logan grabbed Toads throat, pinned him to the ground and took his claws out.

"We're here" Storm announced, Xavier cleared his throat looking at the two men in the isle. Toad wheezed and Logan shrugged. I smiled at Rogue who had agreed to come with me in exchange for the cure, she smiled back nervously. To say the least we were both nervous, we had packed just about all of our stuff not knowing what we'd need and what we wouldn't.

"Come on you two, you were so hyped up to get here" Magneto said giving me a smile. We stood and stretched, Logan was staring at me, I smiled hopefully and he just looked away.

"Come on, let's unload" the professor said. We unloaded all of our bags, meaning Magneto and Xavier talked with Angel's father while the three of us worked.

"Ally" Logan said when it was just the two of us in the jet. He looked nervous, and he was sweating.

"You okay?" I asked genuinely concerned.

"I just wanted to tell you, if you meet a boy here you like" he started. I heard a deep growl in his throat.

"It's okay, no one can beat you" I said.

"Damn straight, that's what I've been thinking all along" Logan said smiling cockily.

"Unless I meet some tall, blonde, not too muscled blue eyed boy" I said putting on a distant look he frowned at me. "Oh I'm sorry were you saying something?" I said pretending to be surprised.

He huffed and out an arm around me "come on, we're keeping everyone waiting" Logan said putting an arm around my shoulder and tugging me out. I laughed and shoved him back as we came closer to the door.

"You're it" I screamed and ran down to the adults and Rogue, I heard Logan following me. I hid behind Magneto as he approached. "Why aren't you slowing do-OH SHIT" I yelled dodging his hand. I ran over to Rogue we giggled as Logan glared at me.

"Ah you must be Allyson, I'm Warren Worthington. Call me Warren" a man said shaking my hand who, looked like an older Warren.

"Nice to meet you, this is Logan" I said, the two men looked at each other.

"We've met" Logan said shortly and to my surprise he folded his arms like a little girl. I must have snorted because Rogue snickered and elbowed me while Logan frowned at me.

"Come on, let's look around" Magneto said tugging on my arm. He and Rogue weren't getting along, but they weren't fighting which was good.

"Whats the deal between them?" I asked referring to Logan and Warren's father.

"After the battle, Warren brought his father to the mansion. Logan had a bit of a fall out with him as Ororo put it" Magneto explained sounding like he knew very little.

"What would that mean in a more detailed manner?" I asked Rogue.

"Logan punched him dead in the face when Warrens father mentioned how well the cure was working for me" Rogue said grinning a little bit.

"That's our furball" I said walking into the huge door. It became a huge hall filled with lockers and hooks with coats hanging on them.

"I'd better leave before anyone see's me" Magneto said looking around.

I turned and hugged him "be safe, and don't fight with anyone please" I said.

He scold me, "yes mommy dearest" he said, I punched him in the arm and we all chuckled.

"Don't worry I'll keep any eye on her" Rogue said to Magneto shaking his hand.

"Thank you my dear, and I'll be sure to keep that bag of fur and metal sticking around the mansion" Magneto said to us, we smiled.

"Mmm good luck with that bucket head" Logan said walking up to us.

"Looks like someone's got their boxers in a bunch" I said airily as he walked over to us.

In one swift motion he wrapped an arm around me and tilted me back "sorry babe, I'm not wearing any right now."

Magneto gave a gagging noise, Rogue and I laughed and Toad who was hopping behind Logan lost his footing and crashed into us. Logan was still choking Toad and I was still on the ground laughing when Xavier, Storm, and Warren approached.

"You'll have to forgive them, they're not exactly top notch mentally" Storm said teasing us.

"O.M.G look at this place" a voice said, we all looked at the end of the hall and saw Jubilee, and Kurt standing there with looks of awe on their faces.

"Jubilee, Kurt" Storm exclaimed as I stood grinning at my friends.

"Yes?" Kurt asked after teleporting behind Storm causing her to shriek and smack him on the arm.

"How did you two get here?" Xavier asked as Jubilee approached.

"We hid in the compartments in the back" Jubilee said hugging Rogue and I way to tight causing us to gasp for air.

"Why didn't you just ask to come with us?" Magneto asked.

"Because, if we had asked you would have said no" Kurt said.

"And If you had said no, we would have snuck on anyway which technically would have been worse because then we would be going against what you said" Jubilee explained.

"Good logic" Warrens' father said earning a big smile from Jubilee and a nod from Kurt who was distracted by his girlfriend who was whispering in his ear.

"Come on you guys, we better leave them alone so they can get settled" Xavier said referring to Rogue and I.

"You mean Kurt and Storm are gonna do it right here?" I asked pretending to be clueless.

Logan snorted, Warren's father chuckled with Xavier, Kurt, Rogue, and Storm blushed, Jubilee had no problem bursting out laughing.

After we had all said our goodbyes Warren's father took us to the girls common room, where he introduced us to the girls that were there. One named Tabitha promised to show us around, she had short blond hair and blue eyes.

"Come on girls I'll take you to the kitchen our chief here is the bomb!" she exclaimed.

"Oh, so what's your power?" I asked her as she led us around the huge buildings we passed a lot of kids who smiled to us and gave looks of distrust to Tabitha.

"Oh, I can do this" she said stopping, she held up her hand and closed it. She opened it and there was a tiny ball of what looked like fire, she threw it out one of the windows. Right before it hit the ground it exploded.

"Woah" Rogue and I said examining the area where the little bomb went off. (A/N look up Boom Boom on Wikipedia, she's one of the X-men)

"Yep, come on we better get to the kitchen fast" Tabitha said and broke out in a run.

"What for?" Rogue asked as we chased after her.

"Well, we can eat in the kitchen with the cook if we hurry" Tabitha said.

"So?" I asked thinking of all the nasty old ladies that were my school cooks. As we burst through the kitchen I realized why.


"Ah Tabitha, you brought friends" a sexy man said. *insert Cajun accent whenever he speaks* He had shoulder length brown hair and red eyes.

"Gambit, this is Rogue, and Allyson, they're new here" Tabitha said to him, I noticed Rogues jaw had dropped.

I cleared my throat and elbowed her "Nice to meet you, where are you from?" I asked trying to figure out his accent.

"Louisiana?" Rogue asked, I noticed how she had made her accent deeper.

"Very good Cherie, where is it you ladies are from?" he asked us.

"I was born in Vermont, but I lived in Ohio mostly" I said.

"Mississippi" Rogue answered smiling at him.

"So whats on the menu?" Tabitha asked looking in the huge pot of something.

"Beef stew, and cheese pizza, and salad for the vegetarians" Gambit said, I walked over and breathed in the soup.

"Mmm I haven't smelled anything this good since I was a little kid" I said remembering how my mom used to cook when we were with my real dad.

"Well, have Tabitha getcha some and dig in, I've got to go serve in the dining hall, but I will be back" he promised and left giving Rogue a wink who was blushing profoundly.

"See, this is why breakfast, lunch, and dinner are so important" Tabitha said to us grabbing a few bowls. Soon enough we were all scarfing down food happily talking.

"I think Hugh Jackman is way better, I mean James Marsden just hasn't ever show he can get as down and dirty as Hugh can" Tabitha said.

"Yeah but James Marsdens humor and sexiness also adds to him" Rogue said.

"I think both of them, naked, drunk, and in my room is really good" I said fantasizing of the two men.

"Agreed" Tabitha and Rogue said together we were still comparing guys when Gambit returned.

"Enjoying the food?" he asked seeing how much we had put away.

"Very much, where did you learn to cook?" I asked.

"Most of us learn how to cook in the south, hasn't Miss Rogue ever cooked for you before?" he asked.

"She's doesn't like to show off for some strange reason" I said.

"She'll probably show you something else if you ask real nice" Tabitha said smirking I snorted choking on my stew Rogue blushed and tried to kick Tabitha under the table but hit me.

"Ouch" I screeched.

"Haha" Tabitha said.

"Sorry" Rogue said giving me a sorry look.

"Is this how you ladies act at home? Your poor parents" Gambit said.

"We come from a boarding school" I said.

"But they'll miss us before the end of the week" Rogue said.

"Xaviers Institute for Gifted Youngsters?" Tabitha asked.

"Yeah, have you been there?" I asked.

"My mom enrolled me, I'm going there after the summer" she said.

"Oh no" Rogue groaned and grinned at us, Tabitha threw her napkin at her.


I sat in the lounge with Rogue, and Tabitha, we were all curled up in blankets with hot chocolate after a long day of swimming, and exploring.

"Oh man, tomorrow we should take the ferry and go on the main land for some serious shopping" Tabitha commented brushing her hair.

"What for?" Rogue asked.

"They've got all sorts of cool stuff out there" Tabitha said. "But we need one of the teachers around here to take us, theres no classes on weekends so it should be fine."

"Classes, isn't that what we came here to escape" I asked Rogue who nodded with a look of concern on her face.

"Isn't this place suppose to be fun?" Rogue asked.

"Well, its more like lessons, arts and crafts, drama, filming etcetera" Tabitha said.

"Jeez woman don't scare us like that" I said.

Tabitha stuck her tongue out at me "suckers" she said.

"I wonder how everyone at the mansion is" Rogue wondered aloud.

"They're probably thinking of us" I said Rogue smiled at the thought, Tabitha looked saddened. "When you come to the mansion you're gonna fit right in with us" I said.

"Yeah, this year's definitely gonna be interesting, we've got tons of new students and Ally's brothers having anger management issues" Rogue said.

"Oh great, he's probably cutest" Tabitha said.

"Totally not, and he's taken" I said thinking of how bad Jubilee would hurt Tabitha if she ever heard her hitting on Dimitri.

"Well, maybe tomorrow we can go to the mainland and shop some" Tabitha said standing and stretching.

"We're in an island off Scottland wont it be expensive" I asked her.

"Depends on what you buy" Tabitha said sounding very much like Jubilee wanting to go shopping with only some coins.


"Sorry Tabitha, I can't take you, I've got to make lunch and dinner" I heard Gambit talking with the wild blond sounding sorry as I walked towards the kitchen.

"Its okay, someone else could take us right?" Rogue asked as I entered the kitchen.

"Miss Frost is takin her group to the island, I'm sure she wouldn't mind if you guys went with her" Gambit said, he smiled when he saw me. "Nice hair" he said as I sat next to Tabitha who's nose was wrinkled.

"She hates me" Tabitha said.

"Doesn't help that you tried to blow up her room" Gambit said handing me a plate with pancakes on it.

"I did not, and there was no proof that I blew her room up" Tabitha exclaimed taking a huge bite of pancakes.

"Your laughter hinted it for some reason" Gambit replied.

A tall blond woman in a white suit walked in with an empty plate in her hands. "Good morning Remy, Tabitha. Ah you two must be the new students" she said. "I'm Emma Frost" she said offering a hand to Rogues gloved one.

"I'm Rogue, and this is Allyson Xavier" she said, Emma looked at me and raised an eyebrow.

"Such as Charles Xavier, Xavier?" she asked looking me over.

"Yeah" I said and blushed as I felt a trail of maple syrup spill from my mouth. "Nice to meet you" she said.

"The same" she said and shook my hand as well, she handed Gambit her plate and sat on the counter.

"So, are you ladies interested in joining my group on a trip to the main land?" Emma asked.

"Actually I can't, I've got a meeting with Warren's father to discuss the cure" Rogue said mainly to me.

"I'll chetcha something pretty" I promised her with a smile noticing how bummed out she looked.

"Alright, we'll go with the snob squad" Tabitha said.

"Tabitha, its most of the students, you really must find a way to get along with them better" Emma said, Tabitha responded by glaring.

"What do you want to do with the cure?" Gambit asked Rogue changing the topic before a fight started, even though it would have been entertaining for sure.

"I can't touch people without it" she said sadly.

"Let me guess, some boy made the decision for you?" Gambit asked.

"No! I chose it because I want to be able to touch someone without killin' them" Rogue exclaimed angrily.

"Easy, just be sure it's what you want and not what someone else wants you to want" Gambit said.

"I'm gonna go get ready" Rogue said and left in a huff.

"Excuse me" I said and followed my friend leaving Tabitha with the two adults.

"Rogue" I yelled chasing her down the hallway.

"What if I am making the wrong decision?" she asked me confused.

"Well sweety, its up to you what you choose" I said, she sat down on one of the benches in the hallway.

"What if I'm makin the wrong choice, I had a weird dream last night, it was about all the people I could be helping with my powers" Rogue said, I sat next to her. "I don't even know if it's what I want anymore" Rogue sighed.

"Rogue I'm not gonna tug you in any direction. It's no one's choice but your own, and if it's what you want you need to go for it" I said hoping to inspire her or something.

"I know, go back to breakfast, I think I'm gonna go for a walk and try to calm down" Rogue said and left before I could object. I ate breakfast quickly and got ready with Tabitha. Soon we were on the ferry headed into main land.


I looked around the candle shop examining every last scent they had. I always loved candles for some reason, they were soothing and relaxing. I really liked the ones meant for magic, they might not work, but they mean something.

"So you're the new one?" a voice asked me, I turned and saw a boy standing behind me with dark hair and dark eyes. "I'm Morph, sorry, I didn't mean to freak you out" he said sounding apologetic.

"Its okay, yeah I'm Allyson nice to meet you" I said and shook his hand.

"Boom Boom sent me to find you" he said.

"Boom Boom?" I asked. I didn't remember anyone named Boom Boom.

"Tabitha, that's what her "superhero name" is" he said quoting superhero name with his fingers.

"Oh, okay, tell her I'll be there in a few minutes" I said, he nodded and transformed into me.

"As you wish" he said in my voice and walked away. It took me a full minute to pull my jaw up and stop watching him leave. I made my purchases and went to find Tabitha and Morph, who had beyond freaked me out.

"Allyson" a voice said, I looked in a jewelry shop and saw Tabitha waving towards me. I saw Morph, who had changed back to himself, was next to her, and Miss. Frost was standing behind them looking pissed.

"Hey" I said walking over.

"Hey, look I'm in trouble, can you help me out here? Miss. Frost thinks I caused the explosion in the food court vending machine" Tabitha said.

"Because you did" Miss. Frost said sternly.

"Did not, anyway, will you do some of my shopping for me?" she asked holding out a list, I examined it and nodded.

"No problem, how much more time do we have?" I asked Miss. Frost.

"As much time as you need" she said.

"Thank you, and I'll be taking your money" I said grabbing Tabithas money from her pocket.

"Hey, she's trying to rape me! Are you gonna do anything about this?" Tabitha said to Miss. Frost.

"What you two do in your free time is none of my business as you so often point out" Miss. Frost said causing Tabitha to huff and cross her arms.

"Don't worry, we only do each other" I said and kissed Tabitha on the cheek before leaving Tabitha who was scratching at her cheeks and screaming something about aids.
