Author's Note: Sorry for not updating sooner! Things have settled down, so I should have even more up within the week. That's for sticking around!
"Oh! Here comes the new girl." Jubilee said, quietly down the group.
Nokomis stopped at the end of the hallway, taking in the group. They were very different looking types of people, all for the most part dressed in the same black and yellow uniforms. For a moment she wondered why hers was so different from the rest of the group. "Nokomis! Like come down here so I can introduce you to everyone." Kitty grinned at her. Nokomis walked up and nodded hello. "'Kay, here we go. Everybody this is Nokomis. Since she and Jean are the oldest girls, that's why they don't have roommates." Kitty explained. That got a reaction from most of the girls. "Nokomis," Kitty continued, "This is Jubilee and Amara." Two girls waved. "Then we have Bobby and Sam, and this is Jamie. He doesn't go to school with use cause he's still in middle school." Kitty grinned.
"Hey!"
"Well it's true! And then we have Roberto, Tabitha, and Rahne." They waved and smiled and the girl Rahne even said hello with a strong Scottish accent.
"It's nice to meet all of you...but Kitty, where's Rogue and Kurt?" Nokomis asked.
"Oh, they're up in the observation deck. That's where we're heading. Everyone just wanted to meet you first." she told Nokomis.
Nokomis wrinkled her brow, confused. "Observation deck? What are all of you going to be observing?"
"You silly." The girl named Jubilee laughed, as she hit a button that opened a large metal door Nokomis hadn't noticed before. "Well....you and him."
Nokomis took a step in and the door shut behind her. Right then a short guy in a red and blue costume turned to faced her. "Spider-man." was all her mind could make out.
"Wow. I'm so famous, I don't even have to introduce myself anymore." Peter joked from under his mask. The girl's scowl didn't change.
"Nokomis, I am sorry I have not been able to welcome you to the Institute properly." Professor Xavier's voice came through the intercom. Nokomis looked up to see the Professor, Ororo, and all the kids watching her, including a man and a few kids she hadn't seen before. "We will begin by testing your physical skills to those of Spider-man's." Xavier continued.
"Hmpf. This should be easy." Nokomis said giving Peter a toothy smirk. Peter couldn't help himself, he took a step back away from the girl. His spider senses weren't going off or anything- those teeth just didn't look human and was sort of creepy. "I have read all about you in the papers." Nokomis told him.
Just great, he thought to himself. If she went by what the papers said, she must hate him. "Let's see how you do against the real thing spider boy!" Nokomis shouted as mechanically noises started up.
"That's Spider-man not Spider-boy!" Peter shouted back.
