Well, I really wasn't expecting the demands for a sequel so soon. I'll try
to put something together, but I can't promise it will be good. For the
first couple of chapters, I think I'm just going to do some catching up.
This happens before, during, and after Lance comes to the X-men. I'll try
to keep it close to the storyline as I can without taking away my parts in
it.

After the plane landed and their stuff was unloaded, Tabitha and Kellie wanted the grand tour. Unfortunately, it was 12:30 in the morning. Daniel told them that the tour would be given the next day, and everyone had to practically drag them upstairs to their room. They both lay there thinking and talking of the past, and what the future might hold. They were quickly "asked" to shut up with some banging on the walls from both sides. The lights went out and sleep came to all, except one who sat in his wheel chair at the computer, searching..
```````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` `````````````````````
Daniel was still in a world of blackness when he heard a faint voice, "Daaaanny."
He emerged into a state of half-consciousness and his eyelids opened partly. "Huh?"
He was greeted by the sights and sounds of someone giggling in the background, while two hands were cupped together in front of his face. Daniel groaned, still not comprehending the impending wake up call.
"WAKE UP!!!!" yelled Kellie as a blinding flash emenated from her hands.
Daniel shouted in a mixture of surprise, pain, and protest, "WHATTHEAAAAAAAAHRGGH!"
Kellie and Tabitha raced downstairs laughing as the still blind form of Daniel came stumbling out of his room. They slid down the stair rails, while Daniel tripped and rolled down. "COME BACK HERE YOU TWO!!!"
They went outside and Daniel was following them blindly when he vaguely realized that he was wearing only a pair of shorts. Outside it was raining, and it was a cold rain indeed. Kellie hid the two of them with her powers while they stood behind the door as he went, still stumbling, out into the frigid rain. A shout of surprise, shock, and pain cried out again as he slipped on the slick grass and fell in the mud. Tab and Kellie were already inside eating breakfast calmly, or as calmly as they could manage. Everyone else, including Storm and Logan, were laughing. After he recovered some of his senses, he used a brief flare of thermal heat to dry himself off, then rushed inside.
"WHAT WAS THAT?"
Kellie responded, barely able to speak from giggling so hard, "You know Daniel, if you wanted to take a shower, soap works better than mud. Also, you usually don't take one with your shorts on."
Daniel glanced down at his muddy, damp, half-clothed form and rushed upstairs to change. He came downstairs to find that everyone had already sat down and were now eating their breakfast.
"Getting up late today aren't ya Daniel?" Evan said.
He ducked a small bolt of electricity as Daniel sat down for food. "Well, I see you two have wasted no time in seeing that your tour guide is up." He said.
The only answers he received were giggles and laughs. He glanced at Kellie "I ask again, what was that?"
Kellie smiled, "A highly concentrated flash of light. Not enough to do permanent damage of course, but a very effective means of getting lazy- asses out of bed in the morning."
"That it is, if not a bit.painful. So how come you two have such good control over your powers anyway?"
Tab answered "Oh, we've been practicing for a while. A few days after you left they just came out. It was pretty freaky at first, but everyone else thought that it was cool. Then the professor showed up and we asked if we could play that joke on you. We thought it was hilarious."
"Who is the we?"
Kellie, "Everyone who knew. Our parents, Mandi, Amanda, Ryan, Matt, Teresa, Jennifer, and so forth."
"So that's why nobody else was surprised when you two started fighting."
"Yeah, pretty much."
"Well thanks for the wake up call, though next time you could just yell at me to wake up. Who turned off my alarm?"
Tabitha, "We did. We asked when you usually got up, then I woke up and unplugged your clock and went back to bed for a while."
Daniel calmly finished his food, "So you want the tour now or later."
He had barely finished his sentence when they dragged him out of his chair. "Ok ok, calm down. You're gonna see it later anyway."
He gave them the tour of the above ground levels. Then moved his way into the basement. They both found the electronics much more interesting than the hangar, which is why Daniel delayed there so much. "Don't you want to see the rest of the rooms?"
Tabitha, "No! Show us all the cool stuff. The simulator and holographic stuff."
Daniel groaned. He knew that they would want to see that first. "Fine fine. Jeez you two have gotten more hyper than before. And THAT is pretty damn hyper."
He was rewarded with TWO kicks to the shins for that. He hobbled along, telling them what he knew of each room. They arrived at the Danger Room, and after describing it, they immediately wanted to try it. Daniel tried to get them to change their minds, but they just walked inside. The lights came on automatically, but since the countermeasures were not armed, the defenses did not start shooting. Daniel called the others and asked if they could come start one of the programs for them. He was getting the hang of it, but he didn't want to kill them on their first day. Logan and the others came down, the others coming mainly to watch.
"What do you want to do kid?" Logan's voice rang.
"Some easy, shoot and dodge type thing."
Tabitha and Kellie seemed satisfied, but both asked if they could try the intermediate level. Logan agreed with them, after seeing them fight the Sentinels. The program started and the fight began.
Laser cannons popped out on four sides of the room. Daniel mainly stayed out of their way, seeing what they could do. And from what he saw, it was apparent that he had underestimated them by far! Tabitha was firing balls of electricity and Kellie was disappearing and reappearing everywhere, her lasers cutting the cannons. A few energy blasts came his way, but he absorbed them with no trouble at all. Then a few hazards started popping out, spiked balls and floating laser cannons, but neither of them seemed to be having too much trouble. Walls popped up around Tabitha, trapping her inside, a pit opened up and the walls began to push her towards it. Daniel was about to help out when a wind picked up and Tabitha, to the surprise of everyone, floated out of the box, still blasting fire, electricity, and explosive energy at everything that came close. Kellie was easily avoiding the obstacles, mostly because Logan had neglected to program the heat sensors. Daniel tossed a few energy bolts at anything that came his way, but now Tabitha was swooping here and there, dodging the energy blasts. One of the snake tubes popped up and snagged her with a net, bringing her to the ground. It began to reel it in, but was cut in half by a shaft of light that was hovering in the air. Kellie reappeared, and in her hand was a shimmering wand of light.
"What the.." said Tabitha, evidently a surprise for her as well.
"Did you think you were the only one who had a few tricks?"
They continued the fight, and Daniel glanced up to see impressed expressions on everyone, including Logan. Daniel decided that if they impressed him, then it was enough for this session. He waved his hand in a cutting motion, and Logan switched off the simulator.
"Not bad half-pints."
"Yeah, like, you two were great!"
"Ja, you vere really kicking butt!"
"Not bad at all, for a first time." Said Scott.
Daniel laughed, "What's the matter Scott? Afraid they're gonna upstage you?"
"..No, but aren't you?"
"Sure, but give credit where credit is due." He smiled and high-fived Kellie, "You two did great."
Tabitha just tossed her hair, "Of course, what were you expecting?"
Daniel laughed and they went out. "Oh, I have some revenge to plot, so I will talk to you later," he said and dashed off.
Tabitha called after him, "Like you can do better than that!"
The two walked outside to watch the "friendly" game between the other "new" recruits. Berserker, as usual, was losing his cool because his team was losing. On his team was Magma, and Wolfsbane. On the other there was Sunspot, Iceman, and Jubilee. Berserker started to crackle with electricity and the Tabitha and Kellie moved a bit farther back from the field. They sat down and watched the inevitable show.
"YOU ARE SO CHEATING!" yelled Berserker, and electricity bolts flashed out.
The other students responded in kind, and while the hyperactive duo watched, the students were all laying out on the grass from some form of injuries or another.
"They have really short tempers don't they Kell?"
"Yep, far to hyper if you ask me."
The two giggled and were about to walk away when a bucket of hot water splashed on them from above. They looked up only to have an ice-cold bucket dropped on them .The heat of the water from the first bucket made the icy one that much colder. The two yelped and ran around, trying to get out of the way in case of more buckets. They saw Daniel laughing on the roof, and Tabitha was up there before it crossed his mind about her flying ability. He was then suspended above the mansion about 4 stories above the roof.
"You think it's FUNNY to ruin my hair?" she asked.
"Do YOU think it's funny to blind someone and lead them out into an ice cold shower?"
"Actually, I do."
She carried him over the swimming pool and, after dropping to about 20 feet above the water, dropped him. He came up sluttering and paddled over to the side.
"Girl, no sense of humor when jokes are played on them," he muttered.
Tabitha was about to drop a bolt of electricity on him, but thought better of it, and threw a tornado spell that sent him back in. She flew back inside and changed out. There were no more joke incidents for the rest of the day.

Well, here's the sequel, sorry if it's not as good the last story. Just tell me what I need to fix. Also, I need something for the plot. I NEED a villain. Do you want a) Magneto to come back, b) the FOH to start some trouble, c) evil mutants besides magneto. If you got some better ideas, my ears are open. Oh, sorry if the chap is a bit short, I used a lot for explanation.
