Once the door of the elevator opened, i knew exactly where we were, in the normal ground level of the institute, next to the stairs, she walked out first, and i followed her. We walked op the stairs, and surprisingly they were longer than i thought they would be, i thought it was just my bad depth perception, but it wasn't. We got to the top of the 120 step stairs, when Emma turned right and stopped in front of a door labed "Targetry class"

She knocked on the door and i heard a voice say "Come in" to me the voice sounded gravely, but not a normal gravely then she opened the door and we entered the classroom.

Right away i saw Jean Summers or Blaster as everyone called her, so i waved to her and she waved back at me, although i could see some confusion on her face (or at least on the parts i could see because she wore sunglasses) for me standing in a class called "Targetry class".

Well, Emma was talking to the teacher of the class who i say looked extremely odd, considering he had wood sticking out of his skin like a porcupine. So, i stepped closer to Blaster to talk to her when i heard something coming towards me, so i ducked down fast.

I looked behind me to see wood sticking into the wall, so i turned my head to see the teacher, and Emma staring at me witch made me feel like i did something wrong, so i said "What?!"

The Teacher of the class said "No distracting my students please. You can talk to them when class is over."

I said "Okay."

Giving attitude to it hoping he would notice my thoughts on it.

But he just said "Oh, and you" he pointed to me, "I would like to talk to you after class." I shuttered because a had a random cold chill and then i heard him yell "Hey, IceBoy no chilling our guests!"

I turned around to see a boy with ice blue eyes and brown hair staring at me, so i turned all the way around, and let only my middle "claw-like thing" out of my knuckles and he screamed like a girl and jumped back out of his chair, and i quickly retracted it. The teacher just chuckled and muttered something about how that happened when they were young, and he seemed not to notice his scared student.

Then he snapped out of his memory and said "Now Iceboy, i told you not to mess with our guest!"

he raised he voice a little with guest, but i guess it was because i was causing trouble in his class. Then the bell rang right before i was about to talk to "IceBoy" about how he shouldn't pick on others. So, i stayed behind to talk to the teacher i guess considering Emma was still in here.

She said "Lillian Marie, meet Evan Daniels or Spike, he's the mutant i was talking about."

I said "Hi."

He said "Do you want to see what i looked like when i was your age?"

I said "Sure." He pulled out pictures, one was of a Skater looking Teenager, and the other was a Skater Teen with few spikes coming out of it. I said "Wow, you looked so different when you were my age. Why's that?"

He replied "My mutation."

I said "Oh,"

He said "My mutation changed my physical attributes to the point where i couldn't go outside"

I said "I'm sorry."

He said "Why, be sorry? I have come to terms that i will never be normal, and sometimes you find love because of it" He rose his hand up and showed me his band.

I said "Who are you married to?"

He said "Rahne Sinclair Evans or Wolfsbane as everyone calls her"

I said "Cool" right as a woman who you could really tell was pregnant walked in and hugged Spike, I guessed it was his wife, considering.

She said "Is this a new student?" as she turned around to look at me.

I mumbled a "Yeah, and what about it.."

she said "Oh, she looks so much like Rogue!"

She walked over to me and was about to hug me when Emma said "Watch out Wolfsbane, she's got the same problem her mom did when she was her age."

Then the woman stopped short "Oh," she replied, "Well, nice to meet you."

Emma then said "It's time to go, class will start in a few minutes."

"Okay" I muttered under my breath.

Once we left the room i smelled something a little out of the ordinary and familiar that somehow sent me on high alert and my claws went out.

Emma, who didn't know what was happening asked "What's wrong Lillian?"

I said "I have no idea"

She said "Then why are your claws out?"

I said "A smell that I've smelt before.."

She said "Well, what is it?"

She started to get impatient with talking.

When all of a sudden, my father ran out of a room, claws unsheathed sniffing the air, I said "Dad, what's wrong?"

He replied "An old friend."

I said "Is he largely built?"

He said "Yes, how'd you know that kid?" through gritted teeth

I said "Lucky guess..." but i was nervous so

he said "How'd you know that kid?!"

I replied "I don't know!"

I ran down the stairs and outside turned a corner into an area where there was an old and forgotten basketball court with cobwebs everywhere and the sound of a basketball bouncing up and down I turned my head to see ShadowWalker playing on the long forgotten court fully enveloped in the game he was playing it seemed, by himself.

I said "Hey Shadow!"

He turned his head and waved, and the ball he was playing with disappeared.

So i said "What happened to the..." and then a boy, at least a year younger than me jumped out with the ball in hand.

I said "Who is this?"

Shadow replied "Toad."

Then i noticed that his eyes were a little buggy and that his skin looked a little green in comparison to others.

I said "What's his real name?"

Shadow replied "Toad is his real name. His father used to be called Toad, so he named his kid Toad."

I said "Oh, nice to meet you." Toad then said "I have to go before my father finds out i was at the institute "

I said "Why is that such a bad thing?"

he said "Well, my father is a part of the Brotherhood."

I said "And, what does that have to do with things?"

he said "The X-men hate the Brotherhood, we are enemies "

I said "Oh, well nice seeing you Toad." and his tongue came out of his mouth, flung at a tree, and he went off. I shuttered at how gross that tree might have tasted and said "So, Shadow are we going to go back inside?"

Shadow said "Sure."

We were about to enter the Institute when i was attacked from behind, I was thrown to the ground, we struggled for a minute, until i was pinned to the ground. I looked up to see who pinned me to the ground, and it was a girl around the same age as me, except longer hair that was dirty blonde, blue eyes, and she had nails that looked like claws.

She said "Where's Wolverine?!"

I said "What do you mean?"

Trying to play it stupid, i don't think it worked because she pulled out a picture and said "This guy!" practically shoving the picture in my face, well i threw her off of me, and she landed with a sickening thud in a tree a few feet away.

She pulled herself off of the tree and propelled herself towards me, and when she hit, she hit me square in the gut. I doubled over in pain as she began slicing me with her claws and i heard a "Poof" that was probably an irrelevant noise that for its distraction, gave the girl the perfect opportunity to throw me, for which she did. I landed on the old basketball court hard, and i felt each bone crack, but i felt no pain. So as soon as i was going to stand she was already over to the court, and began kicking me furiously, so i let my claws go out and i sliced her, it seemed to do nothing other than rip her clothes, and not her skin, so i sliced again, watching her as i did it. That's when i noticed that she was able to heal like me and that man i fought at that bar, and that they both were looking for one person, my father.I don't know why they were looking for him, but they were, and i sure wasn't going to let them take my father away! I kicked her square in the gut, she doubled over as i ricochet off the building, and kicked her right in the face, for which she grabbed my leg and threw me across the field into a tree. I tried to stand up, but i couldn't stand up at all, then when i was about to give up, Shadow appeared with most of the X-men and helped me up. They didn't know what happened, but they saw the wreckage left over from the fight and knew something bad had happened and then they saw the other girl, the one who attacked me, a few feet away and knew that i was probably to blame.

So my father said "What happened here kid?!"

I said (Or rather stuttered) "She started it." and i pointed over to the girl who layed motionless a few feet away.

Emma walked over to her and checked her pulse then said "She's alive, just knocked out."

Everyone except me let out a sigh of relief, and i said "I can explain, she was looking for you dad!"

I pointed over to my dad and i heard several gasps escape the students that had just gotten to the scene and saw the broken tree's around and rock in my hair. So, Shadow picked me up the rest of the way, and Wolverine grabbed the other girl and they took us inside.
