Ororo pitied the boy. Strangers had taken him and his mutant abilities had been discovered.
" Look, kid. We want you to come with us. We can help you use your powers." Logan said, frustration in his voice. This seemed to anger the boy.
" Non!" Remy shouted. In one swift movement, the boy had grabbed his sunglasses and had leapt down out the open window and down the fire escape.
" That went well." Ororo said feeling slightly saddened at the sudden disappearance of the boy. Logan rubbed his temples.
" It's going to take a lot of convincing to get him. So much for a vacation. Something tells me, that Chuck had this planned the whole time." Ororo nodded. Charles most likely did.
" So like, where is he?" Kitty said as Logan and Ororo walked out of the room.
" Not there. He leapt out the window as soon as I told him we knew he was a mutant." Everyone paled. " There was a fire escape under the window." Logan added. Everyone let out a sigh of relief.
" This is all my fault. He probably thinks we are some kind of murderers or something." Rogue exclaimed.
" He probably wouldn't be too scared, even if we were murders. He appears to be a thief for a living, so he can't be scared of much." Jean said, trying to comfort Rogue.
" Well, maybe we should look for him when we are around the city." Scott suggested.
" That's not a bad idea." Logan said. " Does anybody want to finish the zombie movie?" Everyone cheered and got dressed. Soon the X-men were walking to the movie theater.
Remy LeBeau sat in an alley. He didn't feel like going back to the guild or stealing any wallets. Logan's words get replaying in his head. " We can help you use your powers." Remy had believed someone who said that once. Yes he did gain control of his powers, but the person betrayed him. He took a card out of his pocket and charged it. He watched it glow a faint pink then the color got brighter and brighter. He tossed it and it hit the ground. Where the card hit, there was a large hole. Jumping down from the trashcan he was sitting on, Remy walked into the crowd. Time to do what he did best. Thievery.
Kitty screamed a drooling zombie walked over to a girl and said something about brains. She hugged Jean's arm and screamed again.
" SHHHHHH!" Hissed Rogue. She was in a bad mood ever since she found out the boy ran away. She didn't even know his name. After the movie ended, Logan herded the group outside.
" Okay. Now let's start lookin' for that kid. Split up into groups and look. And I don't want to have to make groups." There was a great scuffle as people partnered together. Logan nodded and head off down the street with Ororo. The rest if the group went in opposite directions.
Remy had stolen five wallets. He decided to stop in a diner and get a drink. He walked in and sat down at the counter.
" Hello. How may I help you?" Said a chirpy voiced waitress. Remy rolled his eyes.
" Do ya have any soda?" Remy asked.
" Yes! Only one kind. It'll be a minute." The waitress skipped off. Remy rolled his eyes again.
Scott and Jean walked into the same diner. Remy was looking around when he spotted them. He recognized them. Then he realized that he had seen them hanging out with Rogue and her friends. Remy put his coat collar up and walked out the back door. Scott spotted Remy just as he walked out the back door.
" That's him!" Scott exclaimed to Jean. The two ran after him. Remy could here foorsteps behind him. He looked ahead and reaized it was a dead end. Scott and Jean were getting closer. Remy grabbed a nearby trashcan and threw it at them. It seemed to stop in mid air. Remy gasped and dashed up a fire escape.
" Wait!" Scott shouted. " We just want to talk to you!" Remy stopped.
" Fine. But if Remy sees anyt'ing he don't like then Ah leave. No arguments." Scott sighed.
" Good. C'mon then." Remy leapt down and followed "Monsieur Shades" Remy actually called Scott that for quite a while until he said to stop. Remy snickered. Finally after a few minutes they arrived at the hotel. Scott and Jean lead him up to there room. Scott picked up the phone and called Logan.
" Logan? Yeah, we found him. You'll get the others? Yes, I'll make sure he doesn't leave the room. Okay. Okay. Okaaaayyyy. Yeah. Bye." Scott hung up the phone and sat down in a chair.
" You don't have to keep your sunglasses on, Remy." Jean said
" Did Logan tell my name to everyone?" Remy said, a little angry.
" Well, Rogue doesn't know. She was in here with you when he told everyone what your name is." Suddenly Logan walked in the room with the rest of the X-men.
" Good job, One eye." Logan said as he sat down. There was an awkward silence for a few minutes. Everyone seemed to be staring at Remy and smiling nervously.
Remy cleared his throat and said.
" So, you want Remy to come wit you to dis school?"
" Yeah. We'll help you control your powers." Logan replied.
" Remy can control his powers!" He snapped without thinking. Logan had a lopsided grin on his face.
" Alright. Still, we think it would be the best for you." Ororo said quickly.
" You won't be the only new person. We have a bunch of new students." Kitty exclaimed, trying to make him feel comfortable. The idea of a school full of mutants wasn't exactly Remy's idea of a good home, but he could give it a try.
" Fine, but if Remy doesn't like it dere, Ah up and leave." Logan shrugged and agreed.
The next day the X-men and Remy boarded the Blackbird. Remy sat next to Rogue. The entire ride, they talked and got to know each other. When the plane landed a bald man in a wheelchair met Remy. He held out his hand.
" Hello. I am Professor Charles Xavier and welcome to the X-men." Remy shook his hand. His red on black eyes covered by the sunglasses staring into the cool grey ones of the Professor.
