****Special note MUST read***

For those that do not understand what is going on…The X-Men do not have mutant powers. They have other problems, illness if you will. So Xavier is a money hungry man and he recruits the 'X-Men'. He talks like the Institute is a wonderful place but it's not. The recruits parents are giving him money to take care of the students. And Xavier is EVIL. He's not like the usual dull, boring, 'peace and harmony' Xavier you're used to.

The X-Men's illnesses

Scott- blind, rambling, idiot.
Jean- obsessive compulsive to the extreme.
Ororo- claustrophobic to the extreme.
Logan- psychopathic.
Kurt- There's a term for it but I'm not searching the web for it so…Kurt freaks out whenever anyone looks at him.

Do us a favor and try not to think to hard while reading this. This is one of those fics. where it's off the wall and stupid. Trying to think will definitely confuse you so on with the story.

Okay enough of the babbling.

Chapter 3 The Continued Kurt Encounter

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^



Professor Xavier exchanged handshakes with Kurt's parents as they graciously thanked him for taking their adopted son from them. Kurt's father pulled a bag out from the closet nearest to the door.

"What's that?" Xavier asked, looking from the bag to the man that held it.

"It's Kurt's clothing and personal belongings. I've been waiting for this day for a very long time. You don't know how much this means to me….us," he said, taking a quick glance around. "Thanks again. I'll send you some money to help pay for Kurt," he said.

"No," Xavier started holding up his hands, "no, that won't be necessary."

"But I insist," Kurt's father declared.

"W…e...l...l, if you're sure," Xavier said, holding back a grin. "Come along Kurt it's time to meet your new home."

Kurt leaped for joy, though making sure no one was looking at him. Once he was inside the X-Jet Storm was immediately at Xavier's side.

"Professor, the air, another person will be wasting the precious air inside. I'll…we'll all suffocate…and…and."

Before she could finish Xavier patted her on the arm and said, "There, there. It will be all right. There is plenty of air for all of us."

At first a sort of suspicious looked covered Storm's face, then she smiled, adoring the attention he was giving her. "If you say so, Professor." Then slowly boarded the Blackbird.

"Wow. You sure know how to help people with problems don't you," Kurt's mother praised.

Xavier smiled warmly, "Well I have four students at my institute and I love helping them cope with their problems. It's the most rewarding thing for me to reach out and help someone so unfortunate."

The three said their goodbyes and went their ways.


Once Xavier had taken off he started hearing Kurt talk. "Stop…stop it. Stop, stop looking at me," Kurt demanded.

Xavier put the auto-pilot on and went to Kurt's side to see what was the matter. "What is it Kurt? Who's looking at you," Xavier asked, making sure he wasn't looking at Kurt.

Kurt pointed and Xavier turned his head to look. There he saw Kurt's reflection.

"STOP! I said stop looking at me," Kurt screamed, and started hitting the window and it's reflection.

Xavier sighed and went back to the controls when he heard Storm begin to speak.

"Wasting…wasting the air," she said, huddled in the corner staring at Kurt as he screamed and continuously hit the window.

Charles looked from one student to the other and flipped open a latch. Beneath it was a red button that said around it, 'I am annoyed'. He pushed the button and the Blackbird soared at extremely high speeds as it reached the mansion in less then a minute.

He landed the Blackbird, then began to reach into his pocket. Ororo saw this and screamed, running out of the X-Jet. "Not the sock puppet!" Storm screamed.

Kurt sat there wide eyed not sure what the sock puppet was or what he should do.

"Shall we get you settled into your new home," Xavier said, an evil smile crept
across his face.
