While Jean and Scott had taken the day off,
The other students had not been so lucky. However the students at school had
gotten the message telepathically from Professor Xaviare, just so they wouldn't
be alarmed. Cade was still nervous about the whole idea over other people being
near, she wasn't used to being around a whole lot of people.
Pacing around her room to pass the time Cade sometimes
forgetting to walk every coupled steps about to fall on her face teleported
with a pink flash to fall safely on her bed.
There where really many things to worry
about, so many that made her mind swim in countless situations. Cade her again
this day a knock at the door. She ported (teleported) to the door and quickly
said, "Come in" Cade glanced over at the clock which in red letters
read: 2:10.
Expecting Jean or Scott what she saw was
someone in slight resemblance to Storm.
"I heard you new here," he said
casually
And again Cade's words failed her
"I'm Evan well also called Spyke"
Cade
called upon her courage and mustered out
"I'm Cade" very shyly
Spyke decided not to pull a joke from the
fear in her eyes so he just said, "I guess I'll see you later then"
and headed off down the hall.
Spyke headed over down to hall to Kurt he had
a great urge to tell Kurt to teleport behind Cade and scare her and then we he
got a good look at her, it would be his turn to laugh.
"Hey Kurt was'up?" Evan said
"Ja seem in an unusually good mood"
Kurt commented
"Have you heard we have a new recruit
with, she's down that hall" Evan said beginning his plot.
"I think I heard 'bout this" Kurt
said glancing down the hall.
"So wanna give her a good scare".
Evan said grinning he wasn't trying to be mean but Kurt would take away some of
her shyness.
Kurt's face lit up he was always good for a
particle joke and this one seemed good. "Consider this one done" Kurt
said and-BAMF!
Cade heard a noise a tap on the shoulder. Now
most people would have jumped, but Cade quickly teleport to her room, leaving a
very confused Kurt behind her. Kurt turned to Evan and Evan said "There's
something I have to tell you about Cade"
Kurt wanted to believe Evan but some how he
had to her for real, I mean seeing someone like your self wasn't normal for
Kurt. He'd have to wait for dinner.
Cade had to admit she wasn't as nervous about
neither the Professor Xaiaver nor the students but maybe a little more nervous
about herself. When dinnertime was drawing near and Cade was forced to leave
the safety of her room she had second thoughts but drew herself to the hall
anyway.
The table in the middle of the room was
lovely and the plates where being set, not by people but Cade thought by
telekinesis, by Jean of course. Cade though this might have been a tiny bit
more shock except for the fact she knew Jean.
A few more people entered one girl came
through the door while Scott, Evan Storm, and a man she didn't know, and Cade's
stomach did flip flops as well as the person she had been staring at her mouth
all most fell out of her jaw. Shock, amazement, confusion, and other things
raced through her mind and she felt her legs grow weak.
Until a poke in the back brought her back to
earth and she sat down.
"Now I'm honored to welcome Cade,"
the professor said. While everyone gave her a smile all expect who she
suspected was Kurt. Cade felt a familiar shyness creep through her body.
"Monkey man you got your tongue tied up
you haven't even bugged Kitty yet" Evan slapped Kurt on the shoulder.
"Don't encourage him", Kitty said
glowering dubiously at Evan
Kitty commented on the pop quiz she had today
and Cade ate in silence.
"So Cade was your old school like?"
asked Scott Cade thought of this as forced conversation.
"I didn't really get to go to school a
lot, I was homed school when I was ten and then I learned off the street at a
secret C.F.M.C" Cade said as she continued to stare at her plate.
"C.F.M.C?" asked Jean
"Care for mutant centers, not many
people know of them", she said
Kurt sensed the heavy mood that came over
everyone.
Kurt
picked up a bowl of peas he was about to stick some on his plate but an idea
crossed his mind he took a pea and flicked it at Kitty. And then another and
another until a pea passed through Kitty and she took the pea bowl and dumped
it over Kurt's head. Cade stifled a giggle Jean with telekinesis moved a swarm
of peas towards Scott. He ducked and the swarm followed him and bounced off his
head and then before Cade knew it was a pea fight.
With a poof Cade ducked incoming peas and
landed on the table. After ten minutes or so the pea fight had ended and for
the first time Cade smiled. After dinner she felt like and early bedtime maybe
being here would be good.
