Chapter Two
{Thoughts}

::Telepathy::
As the group of X-men arrived at Bayeville High School, they had no idea of the persons within. That those ruthless in their efficiency lay in wait, for the time to run its course. The purpose is known too soon or too late; the one or the other being more than the stage could support. Opportunity being a fickle thing some would seize that moment.
Cristof watched in rapt apprehension as the small reconnoiter of the mutant group known affectionately as the X-men approached the main entrance of Bayeville high school, and still the moment was too far away as he saw it.
{ Damn-it they are walking right into a trap.}
[bamf-pop]
The bleak and dismal odor of a coal-fire filled the air as Cristof ceased to be where he once was and was at once clinging to the ceiling of the main school hallway next to the Principal's office.

"Kätzen, maybe you should ztay outzhide until ve know zhat it is safe inside"
"Kurt, shut up. I do NOT need a bodyguard"
…and what other body would need guarding around here? Kurt said under his breath
"What did you just say blue boy?"
" nothing important Kätzen."
"No, I know you said something you furry elf, now spit it out!"
With the final word, Kitty lunged at Kurt and threw him to the ground. Scott seeing this pulled Kitty off of the extremely blue young man. Scott and Jean looked cautiously at each other, and eye the young girl with a certain degree of confusion. Finally Scott spoke in his usual leader-like tone of condescending superiority.
"Kitty what is wrong with you. We are on a mission. If you want to have a fight with Kurt, do it. But do it when we get back and this is all resolved."
"Alright but keep but keep blue boy quiet, and I don't want him to call me Kätzen, whatever the hell that means. AND my name is Kitty."
"Kitty, calm down. We need to be focused here we don't know what this guy's intentions are." Jean chimed in.
Kitty turned toward the double doors of the school, a rather resolute expression upon her face. Scott and Jean just looked at her from their respective vantage points. Kurt stood up and brushed himself off.
{What is up with her? I didn't do anything. Maybe she hates me more than I thought}
--Inside the Principal's Office--
Destiny sat in the large leather chair in Principal Darkholm's office her head solemnly bowed forward with her gun resting on her forehead as if it were an idol of worship. Her powers were still unable to show her any possible alternative to the threat that the X-men posed. A single possible moment again and again. Too much for anyone person to endure.. infinite wrong choice and not a single right one. A single tear trailed down her left eye originating from her beautiful but unseeing eyes, as she pulled the chamber back and locked a single bullet into position. Her form began to rock back and forth, gibbering and broken.
"The childe of brimstone comes to destroy the formless one…. He knows and will prevent.… he brings the pain of eternal torment…. The childe…."
Destiny sat rocking and gibbering. Her gun pointed at the ceiling forced to endure her torment alone-- her only comfort that she could not see how much the present resembled the future that she feared.

The X-men split up into two groups , Kitty and Jean on one team and Scott and Kurt on the other. Scott's reasoning had been that far more would be accomplished if they ( Scott and Jean) could keep Kitty from killing Kurt in some unseemly manner. The two teams split up with Kitty and Jean heading for the gymnasium, and Scott and Kurt heading off toward the cafeteria, but it was Cristof who had to be on the move so to speak. Destiny still had knowledge that she shouldn't and it was going to cost his family dearly…
