As darkness and light

Chapter II: Xavier's students

When he woke up, Kurt realized someone was looking at him. He jumped from his bed, ready to fight.

And as he saw who was in front of him, he lowered his fists... A young teenage girl was standing in the middle of the room. She had brown hair that she had tied up in a poneytail. She was barely taller then him.

-Like Hi! My name's Kitty, like the cat, she said, with a wide smile. Professor X told me to announce to the students dinner was ready. And here I am so if you're hungry, come on!

Kurt suddenly realized how foolish he had been to alarm himself and noded.

-Ok let's go!

And kitty took his hand and dragged him out of the room.

-Vait! I've got an Idea, said Kurt as he thought we'd impress the beautiful brunette that was standing next to him in the hallway.

He then took he other hand and they disappeared....-

....to reappear down the stairs, in front of the kitchen.

-Wow! she was actually impressed. And looking in Kitty's eyes, e realized she was really beautiful.

And then coming back to earth, he realized they were standing in he front of the kitchen, both holding each other's hands. They shuddered and went in the room in at their right.

As they entered, everyone was seated around a big wooden table. Kurt sat next o the dark-skined blond boy that had asked him about his powers a few hours ago, when Kurt had introduced himself. As Kitty an Kurt sat everyone started eating.

After a few minute, the boy next to him talked to him.

-Hi! I'm Evan I'm new too. I can grow spikes on my body and even throw 'em. Wow...I saw you power earlier. It's cool!

-Vel zank you... But you know it has some inconveniences. I can only teleport myself in a place I know. And my appearance isn't good neither.

-Come on! I guess it's ok. And plus, that Kitty girl's not getting her eyes off you, he whispered.

Kurt looked around, and actually, she was looking at him. But as he looked back, she quickly lowered her face, pretending to be deeply interested in what was in her plate.

Kurt swallowed a laugh. And so did Evan. And they continued speaking.

-How did you react first time you realized you had powers? asked Evan

-Vel, I alvays had this appearance so I suspected it all my childhood. And you?

-Well, of course it blowed the hell outta me. My parents were so desperate at the time. And then they saw there was an institute for kids like me, so they brought me here.

-I see... Oh! Can you tell me who everyone is please? I don't think I'll have the guts to ask them myself.

-Well ok...! Let's start with professor X. You know who he is right?

-Ja, but... Does he have powers?

-Of course. He's got mind powers. You know, reading mind, moving objects in the air, just y thinking.

-Oh, ja. I see... As Evan had said so, Kurt found out it had been Professor X who had dragged his hood off his head, earlier, while he was introducing himself.

-So...the women on his left's Ororo. Also known as Storm. from what I understood, she can control the weather.

The feroce looking guy opposite her's logan. His nickname's Wolverine. He's got instant healing powers and has an adamantium squeleton, and also claws with the same material as his squeleton.

-Vat is adamantium?

-It's supposed to be the hardest metal in the world.

-Ja?

-Ya. Ok, the girl next to him's Jean. Full name's Jean Grey. She's got the same powers as professor X. Then the guy next to you's Scott.

-I know him

-He can throw lazer beams with his eyes. But the problem's that the lazer comes out each time he opens his eyes. That's why he's obliged to wear those sunglasses.

-...

-But don't worry, it's safe, Evan laughed and continued.

The girl facing you's Rogue. I dont' really know what powers she's got. But it's gotta do something with her hands since their covered almost entirely with those gloves.

Then there's Kitty. You probably know her already. She can walk through solid stuffs.

-Cool!

-Ya, it is! Then the guy next to me's Bobby. He can control ice.

As if Bobby wanted to demonstrate his skills, he touched his glass and suddenly, frost was floating at he surface of his glass.

-Vow! He must be lucky in the summers. I usually die cause of the heat on summers. Damn fur!

Evan laughed and they continued talking.

-And who's zat girl next to Kitty?

-Oh...she's Ashley. I have no idea what she can do. She came right before you did, but she just told us her name.

-Oh vel, some do like to stay mysterious...

-Ya, I guess.

And as they continued talking, they slowly finished their meat and went to their rooms.

During the night, while Kurt was deeply sleeping when a sound woke him up.

He jumped from bed and found a head coming out from th floor. He gasped and prepared himself, ready to pounce.

But then, realizing what Evan had told him about the student's powers, he calmed down. Kitty's head, they body and finally her entire self came out of the floor.

-Hello! Sorry if I'm bothering you but I couldn't sleep and I remembered you were upstairs, so I just came to visit you.

And as she said so, there was a knock at the door and Evan came in, joined by Bobby and Ashley.

Kitty spoke first.

-You couldn't sleep too?

-Yeah! Must be the new environment or something, said Bobby.

-Don't mind if we settle in do ya? asked politely Ashley.

-Vel no... Anyway, I don't think I'll really return to sleep tonight after all.

-Cool! hey Ashley, said Evan, as he sat down on the edge of the bed, what're your powers?

-Well, I can fly or turn actually into a bird. But I really can't take'em out cause they're too big. I wouldn't be able to walk in a room!

-I see, toned everyone in unison.

And as the chatting began, Kurt could get a good look at everyone in the room.

Kitty had brown hair, a beautiful face accentuated by beatiful eyes.

Evan had blond hair, a dark skin and deep green eyes.

Bobby was, Kut thought, the typical human boy. With dark head, brown eyes and a good smile printed on his face, he sure looked normal...Well like everyone else in the room...

Ashley was, like Bobby. No one would suspect, by looking at her, that she was mutant. She was blond with blue eyes, pointed nose and a long body.

Although she was cute, Kurt had this uneasy feeling about her... But then, he was sleepy and all...so...

As they talked, Kurt started to get dizzy. Looking one last time at the teenagers siting in a circle on the floor, he realized how much chance he had to have found this place...

And he fell asleep...
