Hey~

Hey~

Sorry to everyone who wanted me to post sooner…I have no good excuses and I'm sorry…I just got caught up with other stories…Not a good excuse and I'm sorry…Any way, I promise that I will update much more often…school's out…(no more pencils no more books, no more teachers dirty looks =) ::or teachers giving me detention for pulling down a chair angrily…the bitca! Crazy old bat! Hiding the chalk so no one would write on the board…hmmm…I have an idea for a story…hehehe…) and while I do have exams, I'm lazy and don't actually study so I'll get this story updated much more often…enough of my rambling…people are going to stop reading these AN…as they have in my other stories, I'm sure…LoL Now on with the tale…

Disclaimer…read other chapters…other stories…basically anything on Fanfic.net and substitute whatever the topic of that fic is for X-Men…you'll get the idea…

As two teammates came to the rescue, time began to slow for Kitty…

She watched them rush over to Kurt, bend down and attempt to stop the bleeding. She watched Ororo take off the bandana she was wearing and wrap it around one of Kurt's wrists. She saw all of this as it was happening at regular speed, but her mind did not register it at normal speed. Everything slowed. It wasn't until she heard Wolverine yelling her name did she begin to fully comprehend what had happened.

"Kitty!…KITTY!" Wolverine growled as he tied a rag around Kurt's other wrist.

"Huh?" Kitty tried to shake herself out of her little world and come back to the real one. Only problem was, in the real world, Kurt was dying…fast.

"Move, half-pint!" Logan snarled angrily. His anger was not directed at Kitty, rather the situation, but still it shook her. She stumbled back, allowing Logan a clear path to the mansion. He sprinted there clutching Kurt's limp body to his chest, red stains on his shirt…

Ororo flew back to the mansion, following Wolverine, but Kitty simply stood there. She did not want to believe what had just happened. First Rogue, now Kurt…Neither would ever do something to hurt themselves…or so she thought… She slowly began the seemingly long walk to the front doors, stopping often to think, not caring how long it took…actually hoping to draw it out, because if she wasn't there, she couldn't get any news about Kurt, good or…bad.

Logan burst into the mansion and made a mad dash for the medical ward. There he was met by Professor Xavier and Jean, who were preparing the equipment in Kurt's new room. Logan ran over to the bed and, with a gentleness that seemed not of his nature, laid Kurt down softly onto the starch white sheets. He then stepped back and allowed the Professor and Jean to work on the elf. He listened to the Professor direct Jean to do things that he could not easily do, such as retrieving medical supplies, checking monitors on the other side of the room, getting more blood bags…

Finally, after forty-five minutes and two transfusions, Kurt was stable, his wounds bleeding minimally. The Professor sighed in relief after checking Kurt's now normal vitals. He looked from Logan to Jean, both with a look of relief on their faces, but Logan was mixed with something akin to…guilt?

"Jean, would you please inform the others of Kurt's condition? I told them that they were to wait in the rec room for new and I suspect they are all there." Jean turned to the Professor, nodded and, with one last glance at Kurt, hurried off to find the others.

The Professor quickly turned to Logan, both of the men with visages that reflected relief and guilt…remorse…

"Charles, we have to tell them…" Logan let his voice trail off and his gaze settle on the blue boy who appeared to be sleeping, perfectly healthy…with the exception of his wrapped wrists. Charles nodded and opened his mouth to reply, but both were distracted by someone in the doorway.

"Tell us what?" Kitty asked.

~Hey

Sorry this is a little short…I'll try to make it longer next time, but I wanna give enough detail to each part of the story that if I try to cram it all into one chapter, it will be longer, but not as good and I would get sick of writing it so…the point of that little rambling was to say that I was gonna try for a longer chapter next time, but I think it got lost somewhere lol Thankx to all who reviewed, it really means the world to me and is the perfect pick me up for a crappy day…please, keep reading and keep reviewing…yeah R/R =)
