I do not own X-men.Duh.

"Where are my shoes," called Daniel.
"Where they always are, your room," replied Bobby.
"Found them!"
"Good, now can we get going yet? Ah don't like being late for these things."
"Hold on, I'm still getting ready."
Everyone groaned, "Like, c'mon Daniel!! You've been waiting for this all week and now you're taking forever!"
"Alright I'm done. Gee whiz for someone who takes a full hour and a half getting ready to go to the mall you think you'd learn some patience."
"C'mon Daniel!! Ve don't vant your girlfriend to be kept waiting."
"Shut up!!" he called as he came downstairs.
"Finally, let's go," said Scott.
They climbed aboard the Bblackbird. Daniel was dressed in black slacks and dark shoes. He also wore the shirt that Amanda liked. It took a while to find a smaller one to fit his new form, but he did. They took off and flew towards Daniel's old home. Daniel got to sit at copilot, while Scott piloted. The stereo was playing whatever CD Kurt had put in for the moment, and everyone was already dancing as the plane entered autopilot. Daniel didn't feel much like dancing, though. He was just glad he was going to see his friends again. Daniel couldn't help smiling to himself. He never really minded not seeing them between dances and football games until that option was taken from him. Also with the phone lines down, he was unable to talk to them except by e-mailing them using the school's computers. They all couldn't wait to see him and his new friends. Kellie just wanted to see something blow up. They mentioned the two "surprises", but they didn't tell him. Daniel figured that they were going to do something special. Hopefully they wouldn't have the DJ announce that he was back.
The Blackbird soared over his home, and he was glad to be home. All the familiar buildings and lights stood out at him, and he felt a grin spread on his face. There was a slight fog, and that would be just perfect for him. They landed about 10 blocks from the dance. They were in a valley that nobody had been in for a very long time, and it was well concealed. They walked up the hill and took the bus. Everyone wanted Kurt to teleport them closer, but Daniel felt like walking, and it wasn't that far. He had the bus stop about a block from the dance. They walked through the front part of the school and picked up the tickets from the designated hiding spot. He didn't want the others to meet them at the gate. He wanted to make an entrance.
"Okay guys. I need a favor."
"Like, what is it now?"
"Well we are representing the product of the Professor's hard work aren't we? I'd like to make somewhat of an entrance."
"Making entrances is no good. Too many people see Remy, then Remy cannot steal."
"There isn't going to be any stealing! It would be to easy for someone like you Remy, not worth your time."
This seemed to satisfy him.
"Well what do you want to do then. Ah really don't feel like making much of an entrance myself, but what the hell. It's not like we're going to be here forever right?" Rogue had chosen not to where her makeup tonight, and Remy had not let go of her hand yet.
Daniel outlined his planned. Kitty and Jubilee rolled their eyes. Evan and Kurt liked it. Rogue and Gambit seemed cool with it. And the rest didn't complain. Daniel grinned again. This was going to be cool.
He peered in through the glass doors of the gym from across the street. The dance had started about 15 minutes and people were gradually moving away from the doors now that they had met their friends. Daniel spotted them. He could not help but laugh inwardly at how they looked through the entire crowd, waiting for him. The fog machine inside seemed to be producing a bit much, and it spilled lightly out the doors. He glanced up at the building tops, and saw Storm concentrating. He nodded his thanks to her. "Let's go."
The group moved across the street as one. They were in a slightly angled line, forming a very wide V. Daniel was in front, with Rogue, Gambit, Kurt, Kitty, and Bobby on his left, and Scott, Jean, Evan, and Jubilee on his right. They moved through the fog, almost ghost like. He smiled again and was amazed at how happy he was feeling. He gave his old teacher a nod as he handed him the tickets. He was back!!
They didn't notice them at first. They were talking about something and had their heads turned. Then Mandi glanced back and saw him. He grinned. Everyone else turned to see what Mandi was looking at and they all smiled as they saw him. They ran up and gave him a hug, with the exception of a handshake from Ryan and Matt. "Took you guys long enough. You were acting like you'd never seen me before."
He was immediately rewarded with a kick in the shin from Kellie for that one. **So much for the heroic entrance**
"Ow."
"Oh shut up you big baby. Are these the friends you told us about?"
Scott seemed puzzled, "You told them about us?"
Kellie smiled "Well of course we know about you."
"Daniel, do they know?"
"Uh.."
"DANIEL!!"
"What? Jeez I found out when they were with me."
"You should've told the Professor. Now what are-"
He was cut off as Jean kissed him. "Shut up Scott."
"Thanks Jean. God I hate when he gets all leader like on us. Where's Amanda?"
Mandi pointed, "She went to go get some drinks."
"I think I'll go say hi," Daniel said mishceiviously.
Everyone moved inside the gym so they weren't blocking up the doors. "I'll introduce everyone in a sec okay?"
He caught sight of Amanda, paying for the drinks and began to walk back. He slipped silently through the crowd until he was just behind and to the left of her. He signaled for everyone to be quiet.
"Hey Mandi, has he gotten here yet? Who are they? Hi, I'm Amanda."
Daniel smiled. **Same cheerful Amanda.**
He moved slightly into view, just enough for her to know someone was there. She turned and visibly jumped. "AAAHH!"
"Well, that's some homecoming you guys are giving. First a kick in the shin from Kellie and now this? I must really be missed around here."
She kicked him, then hugged him. "YOU KNOW I HATE IT WHEN YOU DO THAT!!"
"Of course, why else would I do it?"
Everyone laughed.
"Well, I guess it's time for the introductions."
Kellie was already jumping "ALRIGHT!"
"Calm down Kellie. This is Scott, Jean, Kurt, Kitty, Evan, Jubilee, Bobby, Gambit and.M," he glanced at Rogue, wondering what name she was going by. She shook her head no. "Rogue. This is Rogue."
After a round of handshakes, Jean began to hold her temples.
"Jean? You okay?"
"Not really. Kellie is practically screaming to know our powers."
"Kellie!! Cut it out."
"Sorry."
Each of the X-men gave brief description of their powers, and Kellie seemed satisfied. As they were talking, a slow dance came up. Daniel held out his hand to Amanda, who accepted and they walked off to the dance floor. Tabitha and Ryan also went, As did Mandi and Matt. Scott and Jean followed them, along with Rogue and Gambit. The dance began, and now Daniel truly felt home.
