Kaitou Marie, however, was someone I thought up so she is mine.
Ch. 2 Pryde Goeth Before a Fall
Beep Beep Beep Smack!
Kitty slapped the snooze button on her alarm clock, and sleepily rolled over.
"Why does school have to start so early? Don't they know we need sleep?"
She yawned, stretched, and checked the time. "Crap! How long was it beeping!"
The clock read 7:30am and school started at 8. She lunged out of bed and tripped on the bed sheet as she tried to get to the bathroom.
"Damn!, Why can't I be more coordinated? Some X-men I am. Maybe I can trip Mystique during our next battle."
Throwing her clothes on, she ran out the door and down the stairs, and promptly ran into Kurt and Evan who were talking by the front door. Kurt grinned at Evan. "Look, now I have beautiful girls throwing themselves at me." Kitty glared at Kurt. "Sorry for running into you, Kurt. Hey, could you port us to school? We are gonna be so late for class if we walk!"
Kurt bowed, "Fair maiden I am at your service." Before she could protest, Kurt swept her off her feet into his arms. "Kurt, put me down! What are you doing?" Ignoring Kitty's protests, he turned to Evan. "Hang on to my shoulder." And the next instant al three of them had appeared behind a tree near the school. "See ya at lunch!", Evan called as he ran to the school door. "Kurt, if I wasn't so late I'd, I'd...rrrrgh!" "I love you too, my lady!", Kurt yelled as he ran off laughing and dodging an eraser from Kitty. "Why does he have to be so annoying!" *But it was kind of fun.* Kitty thought to herself as she walked quickly to the gym building.
*Great, P.E. for first period. I really hate Thursdays. Maybe no one will notice me sneaking in, maybe the teacher is sick and we have a free period.*
"Ms. Pryde, so glad you could join us."
*Maybe not*
"We're practicing the gymnastics techniques I lectured on last class. First event is the hurdle. Since you're late, you can jump it first."
*Damn! Why the hurdle! Why today! Why me?!*
Kitty walked to the starting mark on the floor, and took a few deep breaths. *Ok, Kitty. No sweat. All you do is run and jump and you'll be over it. No problem.*
All the rest of the girl's P.E. class had gathered around to watch and some were already snickering, waiting to see her make a fool of herself. P.E. was Kitty's worst subject, and she already had a reputation of failing every activity so far. Kitty tried to block the girls out of her mind and focused only on jumping over the hurdle. She sprinted towards it, hit the springboard, lept, and hit the hurdle smack in her middle and lay folded over the top trying to get her breath back and fight back tears as she heard the rest of the class erupt in laughter.
"I'll give you points for tying, Miss Pryde, but next time bounce off the board a second later and pull those knees up higher."
*********************************
Ring!!!
*Finally, the lunch bell*, thought Kitty, *Classes have been brutal.* She scanned the lunch room looking for her friends and spotted Jean's head. Jean looked up and waved Kitty over to their table. The guys were still getting food when she sat down. "How's your day going Kitty?", asked Jean.
"Oh the usual, making a fool of myself in P.E., trying not to sleep through Economics.", she replied.
"That bad huh? Hey, if you want a happy ending, why don't you come with me and Scott to New York tonight. We can do some shopping, while Scott does some errands for the professor."
"That would be sooo rockin! Thank you Jean!" Kitty grabbed Jean in a bear hug, beaming. Maybe the day wouldn't be so crappy after all.
"Hey!", shouted Kurt, "I want a hug too!" But all he got was a face full of pudding as the cafeteria erupted into a food fight.
******************************************
Finn sat on a streetlight, invisibly surveying the crowds passing below her. She had resumed her good angel form. This way she could only be seen by pure-hearted people, and even then, only when she allowed them. She sighed. There were definitely lots of demons in New York, but not too many pure-hearted people. There WERE some, but not all were girls, or had families or friends which would make collecting demons difficult to hide. Basically, she needed a pure-hearted, solitary girl.Suddenly, she felt a prickling sensation between her wings. She turned and saw a red-haired woman and brown-haired girl walking by a store window. Something about the girl held her attention. She took a look at the soulstone and noticed it was glowing brightly. "Well, if that's not a sign, I don't know what is." And she flew after the girl.
By the time they arrived back at the mansion, everyone was tired, happy, and many shopping bags richer. And Finn had learned a good bit about the X-men and the girl Kitty. Kitty ran up the stairs to her room so she could go through her latest acquisitions. She was admiring a third blouse in her mirror when she noticed a small green light outside her window. "What the..." She turned and watched as a glowing green bubble flew into the room and popped over her bed, leaving in its place a little winged angel with short green hair. "Ohayo, Kitty! My name is Finn and I am an angel sent to help," THUD "...you capture demons." Finn stared at the collapsed body of Kitty by the bed. "Well, seeing as how you're so tired, we can talk tomorrow." Finn levitated Kitty onto her bed, turned out the lights and settled down to sleep on the nightstand.
