Thanks to BlackWido13 for the info on the newbies, but I don't think I'm
going to have that much of them anyway. I STILL do not own X-men.

Everyone glared at Evan for a few minutes before the Professor got everyone to clean up the mess.
"Well Evan, there goes our phone lines for the next week or so," grumbled Rogue.
"Oh yeah? Well, it's not like you ever talk to people anyway!"
"Could we, like, just get this over with?"
"Yeah, c'mon, we have to get this cleaned up before we go to the Danger Room."
"SHUT UP SCOTT!!" said everyone.
"Man, I was in the middle of a conversation with my friends back home."
"Don't worry Daniel, maybe we can get it fixed faster."
"Maybe"
After everyone cleaned up, a car pulled up in the driveway and out came about 5 other kids. "Who are they?" Daniel asked.
"Those are the rest of the students, and they're late," said the Professor.
After a 10 minute lecture from the professor, the students went upstairs to unpack. Daniel didn't see them much after that, he was too busy trying to remember where he put his cell phone. He doubted it would work out here, but he had to try. He was right about one thing, it didn't work. **Oh well, at least I tried** He ended up just sitting around for most of the day, thinking about what school would be like. He imagined it would be like his old school, except with girls. He had gone to an all boys school before, mostly because he got a scholarship there. It would probably be bigger too. He just hoped he wouldn't make an idiot of himself the first day.
The rest of the day went by normally, or as normally as a mutant school can get. They ate dinner, with the "new" students asking him questions. Kurt and Evan decided to start a food fight, but quickly stopped when nobody else joined in. They got to clean the dishes all by themselves for that. Daniel went to bed still wondering what the other 2 surprises where. **Hopefully they're good surprises** he thought to himself. Bobby listened to headphones so loudly that Daniel could hear them all the way across the hall. He didn't know how Gambit put up with it. He fell asleep after what seemed like forever, and was lost in a world of darkness.
```````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` ````````````````````````````````
Daniel woke up at six o'clock, though he never really gets up and does anything. He showered last night so that he wouldn't have to worry about the line this morning, and he didn't have any homework to do. He decided to go up on the roof and watch the sunrise. He went up to the roof as quiet as he could. He didn't know how thick the roof was, and he didn't want to take the chance of disturbing anyone. When he got up there he found Gambit and Rogue already occupying a ledge facing east, their backs facing him. He smiled and thought about leaving them alone, but decided he felt like being annoying today. Using a little energy, he made a ball that glowed like the sun. They turned, expecting to see the sun defying the laws of nature when they saw Daniel holding the sphere. "Morning you guys. I didn't know there was anybody up here."
"Well, now ya know. What'd you do that for anyways? Ah thought I was going to see the sun rise from the west for a moment."
"Oui, Gambit think so too."
"I dunno, just felt like being annoying this morning."
"Well ya passed and ruined the moment."
"Yeah, why don't you go to some other rooftop to watch de sunrise?"
"Oh I don't know. I like this rooftop. Besides, I don't want to leave you two with out a chaperone."
Daniel ducked a card that flew at his head, "But then again."
"OH JUST SIT DOWN!! IF YOU KEEP TALKING WE'RE GONNA MISS IT," yelled Rogue, though it was only a whispered yell.
They watched the sunrise without any other events. Daniel perched on the ledge about 5 feet from where Rogue and Gambit were. He absorbed some of the day's first energy and went downstairs. The line was already forming, with Kurt inside that shower and Kitty yelling at him to hurry up.
"C'mon Kurt, like, there are other people who want to use the bathroom!!"
"Ja, but they don't have thes fur to deal vith."
"ARGH!!"
Breakfast was already being served, so he began to get something to eat. Gambit, **Remy!! In public his name is Remy** Daniel corrected himself, and Rogue came in. They ate while the others joined them. "So.. How do we get to school," Daniel asked.
"Well, usually Scott drives us but now we don't have much room left."
"Ja, ve need a bigger car. Perhaps a van or something."
"Actually Kurt, I've already gotten that taken care of."
"Good morning Professor," said everyone.
"I saw this little problem and I have purchased two vans. If you go in your usual groups there will be one seat left in Scott's van. You can have that seat if you want Daniel."
"Well it's not like I've got much of choice."
They drove to school, with Kurt and Evan pushing every button that they saw. Finally, Scott pulled over and made them sit in the back. Daniel sat between them to keep them from starting another shoving war. They got to school and Daniel was immediately worried about fitting in. There were so many people! He had never seen this many people in one school before. Everyone told them not to worry, Rogue and Kurt were assigned to show him around.
They went to the office first. The meeting went smoothly enough, but Daniel thought he saw something on the principal's face when he saw Rogue and Kurt. He didn't pay much attention to it though. His first up was English. He entered the classroom and he saw Rogue sitting near the back, the speed demon was on the opposite side of the room, also near the back. He went over and sat in front of Rogue.
(author's note: I have absolutely NO IDEA on who's got classes with what teacher and with who so just deal with it)
"Hey."
"Hey Daniel. Ah guess you're stuck with this class too huh?
"Yeah, but I like English, so it shouldn't be too bad."
"Right. Wait until you hear this guy talk about poetry"
About 10 minutes into the class, Daniel could see why Rogue complained. This class was SO BORING. The teacher was acting like he was giving a speech in front of a college board. He didn't even seem to know what he was saying. He was discussing Edgar Allan Poe's The Raven and the teacher didn't sound at all interested at the subject. He figured if he slept through ¾ of the class he would still make a B+. He took out some paper and just started doodling. After he covered the entire page, he checked in to see if they were going over anything interesting. Nope. He looked out the windows and began to think about what was happening back home. He thought of his friends, his parents, his siblings, Amanda. He seemed to come back to that one a lot too. Every 5 minutes or so he'd check the class to make sure they were on the right page. The teacher had a very monotone voice as well. He noticed the teacher was glancing at him about every 5 seconds, probably waiting for him to space out again so he could embarrass him. Daniel grinned to himself. He made sure he knew what they were going over and then looked directly out the window. He counted about 30 seconds when.
"Well young sir! I don't believe we've had the pleasure of meeting."
Daniel glanced back at the teacher, looking as bored as he could without laughing. "No I guess we haven't"
"Well to start off, why don't you tell us why you seem to find the window so interesting."
**First day at school and I'm already pushing the limit. Oh well, gotta do it sometime**
"Actually I was watching the dust weave patterns to keep me awake. I wouldn't want to fall asleep during this very interesting class."
You could almost feel the sarcasm in the last statement. The whole class started to laugh.
"If you find this class so interesting, why don't you tell me the plot of The Raven."
"It's a poem about a man who has lost his lover. A raven walks and he asks it if he will ever see her again. The Raven says 'Nevermore' and the man freaks out because he thinks the bird is telling him that he will never see his lover in heaven. Then when he tries to get rid of the bird away his souls is trapped in the birds shadow, to be free..nevermore."
The class quieted at that, and the teacher seemed flustered. Then the bell rang and it was off to Biology. He should have been taking Chemistry with Kurt and Evan but his old school had Environmental Science for Freshman year. It had been boring as hell. In the class he saw Rahne. She was the mutant known as Wolfsbane. He walked over and sat down next to her. "Morning"
She didn't know him that well, and she was not the friendliest person either, so all he got was a mumble. The class went smoothly, though a few spitballs were flying at him from the Toad. He ignored him and got on with the work. It was slightly interesting and he didn't fall asleep. Next was Social Studies. He saw Kurt and walked over. "Hey Kurt."
"Hello Daniel. How have your classes been so far?"
"English was boring, but Biology was ok."
"Das good. Thes class is ok. The teacher is nice and interesting."
"Good."
"OH. Von varning mein fraunde. See the girl in ze back with ze blonde hair.?"
Daniel checked back and found the girl in question. "Yeah. What about her? Do you like her or something?"
"Vell, that's not what I was going to tell you. She is Tabitha and is a mutant. She is vith ze brotherhood."
"Really. I'm surprised she could stand them."
"Ja, me too."
"So why are you telling me?"
"Just wait."
Kurt and Daniel looked back as she cupped her hand and rolled a white ball of paper towards them.
Kurt picked it up and gave it to Daniel. "I think that you should see for yourself. If she likes you, you should be okay, but if not."
Daniel opened the paper and a sparkling ball of energy fell out on the paper it said "Greetings from the Brotherhood's cutest member." The ball popped and everyone looked at him. **Crap, what to say**
He took a piece of paper, "Sorry" and acted like he put a piece of gum in it and put it away. This seemed to satisfy the teacher and he went back to teaching.
"You think very quickly."
"Not as quick as I would have liked."
"What does ze paper say?"
Daniel showed him, "Good. She is steel undecided. You von't have to vorry.yet."
"Why does that not comfort me?"
The rest of the class finished and he was off for computer class (this one I do remember). The class was a mixture of Freshmen, Sophomores, and Juniors. Kitty waved him over.
"Hey Daniel, like, do you have this class now?"
"Yep, though have no idea of what I'm doing."
"It's pretty easy. Just don't listen to the teacher and I'll show you the easier way to learn it."
She seemed confident, so he did. He took a few notes though, just in case. Then they were off. The class was very interesting, and the teacher was nice. Kitty showed him what to do. He saw a guy hunched over a computer with a girl that had purple highlights through her dark hair watching him. They seemed to be playing a video game. "Who's the video game wiz?"
"Oh, that's Arcade. He, like, spends almost all of class playing video games."
"I guess that's why he's good at them."
"Yeah. He almost destroyed us too. He broke in to Cerebro and activated the mansion's defenses. We barely made it out of it alive."
"Guess all masters have to lose sometime."
"Well, actually, we didn't really win the 'game' we knocked him out."
"All fair when your life is on the line right?"
"Yeah I guess so."
The period ended and it was time for lunch. He took one look at the food, and was glad that he could survive on a soda. He went and found 2 table that they could use and sat down. After everyone had sat down and begun eating, a glob of mashed potatoes flew by. This immediately called for retaliation, and there was a food fight in a matter of seconds. Daniel could not help laughing as he joined in. "This school is SO COOL!!"
The Brotherhood had started the fight, and as a consequence, the majority of the food was flying at them. Daniel spied some jocks in the corner that were trying to get everyone to throw food at the Brotherhood. He didn't exactly like the Brotherhood, but they were mutants, and the jocks were jocks. Who would you have chosen? He picked up his soda bottle and shook it up as hard as he could. He waited until it wouldn't fizz anymore and he could not squeeze the bottle. "EVAN!"
The blonde looked at him and Daniel pointed at the jocks, then the bottle. Evan grinned and nodded. Daniel waved at the Brotherhood, knowing they would like to see this. He lobbed the red soda up and over the jocks. As it was above them, Evan fired many needle-like spikes. The bottle exploded, and a shower of red foam dropped on the jocks and their letter jackets. The spikes flew through the walls, never to be seen again. The crowd seemed to respond to that and all the food shifted at them. The Brotherhood was rolling around on the ground laughing. Tabitha waved at him and smiled. He nodded and continued throwing food at them. Kitty had left, not wanting to ruin her outfit. Jean was using her telekinesis to stop any of the food that came to close to her. Kurt and Evan were just throwing them around, and Scott was trying to find a way out. The principal came in, and the fighting immediately stopped. Kurt ported everyone out to the football field while behind an upturned table, and they jogged back to class.
The rest of the day went by without events, and they all went home. On the way, to the cars, the Brotherhood tried to pick a fight, but they "had other stuff to do" and left. Daniel decided that they weren't so bad, just misguided. He only hoped that this temporary peace lasted.
When they got home, the Professor gave Daniel permission to go to the dance. Daniel asked if any of the other mutants would like to go, and Kurt, Evan, Kitty, Bobby, and Jubilee immediately said they would. It took a bit more coaxing to get everyone else to come, but they all gave in eventually. He would e-mail everyone tomorrow to tell them that they were coming, and to buy tickets for them. He thought about just having Kurt port them to the roof, and then have Kitty phase them into the stairs next to the bathroom, but the professor heard it and gave Daniel some money for the tickets.
The rest of the week went by okay, with a few fights between the BOM and X- men, but nothing to serious. Then Friday came..
