Foul Plans?

"I see no reason why you can't come back." Professor Xavier smiled at Adema who stood before a desk. Storm and Logan sat on the sofa behind Adema nodding and smiling. "You are an information seeker, you've always aced your tests and never slacked in class. As long as you keep your anger in check, I know you never had an anger problem,"
Adema nodded. "As long as they don't insult my honor,"
The door swung open and Scott barged in. "NO! No professor! This." he bit his tongue quickly and rethought. "Kid! Cannot come back to this school! His attitude is horrible and his temper is as faulty as Logan's!"
Adema coughed. "Teacher's included."
Scott looked over at Adema and shook his head with a sneer. "Get out of here."
Adema looked over at the professor who shook his head no.
"Scott," Professor Xavier started. "Adema is coming back to school and he is going to stay in school whether you like it or not."
"But Professor, you saw what he did to Jubilee."
"After she spat on him, you wouldn't put up with someone spitting on you now would you?"
Scott was flaring, yet he said nothing.
"It's settled then, Storm will show you to your room, if you have any problems with any of the students come and talk to me." If you have any problems with Scott some talk to me Adema, don't take matters into your own hand like you did with Jubilee. You scared her nearly to death-literally.
She was asking for it professor, but all right. Adema nodded and followed Storm out of the room.
Logan stood, glared at Scott and left after them.
"Professor-"
"Scott, I shall not hear any of it, Adema is a good kid when his honor isn't being treaded on, besides, Jubilee is Adema's cousin, leave it alone."
Scott protested but he knew he lost.

Adema leaned against the oak tree at lunch the next day. He browsed the garden and backyard before he sat down and pulled a small book out of his back pocket and began to read.
"Whatcha' reading?" a voice asked softy.
Adema lowered his book and looked up to see Rogue standing there with a tray.
"Moonchildren." Adema answered. "Uh, it's about werewolves."
Rogue nodded. "Cool."
"Hey, why aren't you with your boyfriend?"
Rogue shrugged. "We aren't joined at the hip."
Adema smiled. "I suppose your right," he slid his book back into his back pocket and sighed. "I mean, I'd love to have a girlfriend, I'd always be by her side and the only time I would leave her is to use the bathroom and go to sleep-take it that I couldn't sleep with her," he lowered his head. "But I suppose it wouldn't be any use, I couldn't do anything with her." he looked down studying his hands again. "So, you and Bobby."
She sighed. "Yeah, does it bother you?"
"No, why would it?"
She shrugged. "I don't know, you didn't seem thrilled when you found out the other day."
Adema shrugged. "I suppose," he pouted. "I was a little jealous."
"Why?" Rogue asked, though she already knew.
"Ever since we first talked, ever since I first saw you," he looked up at her. "I wanted to ask you out, I just never got around to it, all with them acting toward you the way they did, then I left, I got so pissed, I couldn't stand it anymore.
"But I kept close tabs with a friend here, they told me everything that went on. Everything that happened to you, I'm glad Logan was there to protect you."
"Who was your friend that you talk to?"
"All the way up until you all went to Alkali Lake, then I lost contact."
Rogue nodded. "Jean Grey."
"Yeah, she was my only friend here for a while, and everywhere I went I always sent her mail, postcards, letters, trinkets. you see, Jubilee is my only known family, but they want nothing to do with me because I can't prove I am their flesh and blood, but Jean Grey, she took me under her wing when I first arrived. She stitched together clothes for me that would snugly fit every inch of my body. so when I left, I left with the promise to write to her at least once a week, but I wrote every chance I could, sometimes every day. never less then three times a week.
"I think that is the main reason Scott hates me, because I was close to her, and he thinks I was closer to her then he was. But in every letter she talked about him, she would talk about how much she loved him and how much she liked Logan, how her heart was torn two ways but she knew she would marry Scott if he asked. 'Girl's flirt with the dangerous kind, but they marry the good guy.' She wrote that in one letter I received back in Hawaii." Adema sighed. "Jean Grey." he shook his head. "I think of her like my mother, because she would take care of me like a mother would, when I was sick, she would stay up at night to make me comfortable," he wiped away a tear. "God I miss her." Scott leaned against the other side of the oak tree and shook his head. He had totally mistreated Adema- all because of his ego. he stifled a cry and walked away hurriedly.

"Look at what the cat dragged in," Jubilee sneered. "Now this looks familiar, hmmm, where I have I seen this before-"
Adema stood up and Jubilee backed off a few steps. "To hell with it," he shook his head. "I don't have to tolerate you Jubilee." He said and walked off.
"Pussy!" Jubilee shouted after him.
Rogue stood up, slapped Jubilee and walked after Adema who headed down a hill toward a little stream.
Adema stood by the stream and looked around. He seemed to be waiting for someone. Rogue ducked behind some bushes as three fellow students crept out from the trees and greeted Adema.
They talked and pointed at the school. Adema nodded with an evil grin and pointed to his watch. Then he pulled some papers out of his back pocket and handed them to the others then he left.
The other three sulked a little while then they too left. Rogue crept back up the hill and headed for class.

During choir class, their professor, Professor Herald, introduced their new classmate, returning from a long vacation.
Adema walked in and smiled at everyone. Rogue and Bobby where in this class, he noticed, he smiled at them and took a seat by one of the guys he met at the stream.
Rogue watched him intently as he leaned over ad started to whisper in his friend's ear.
"Bobby," Rogue leaned over.
"Yes?"
"Who's that guy Adema is talking to?"
"That's Elias, he's what you'd call gothic."
Rogue studied Elias, he looked about as tall as Adema with short- cropped hair and black eyeliner. He wore a black mesh shirt and baggy black jeans. The hair above his right eye was longer then the rest of is hair and it come down in five gelled spikes over his eye.
Adema pointed to the teacher then to an electric piano in the back of the room. Elias nodded with a smile and then Adema leaned back in his chair with a satisfying sigh.
After class everyone filed out quickly, Rogue stayed buy the door in the hallway listening to Elias and Adema talking to the teacher. She could barely hear them, but there were words she caught.
"Killer." Elias said.
"Yeah, it needs to kill-" Adema chuckled.
"Who?"
". Xavier. at the gym."
"Missionary. three nights from now."
". Full moon."
Rogue gasped and ran off.
Adema walked out with Elias and met with the other two boys who were also gothic. They pulled out their papers and scratched something off.

After afternoon classes were over Rogue made a dash for Logan but skidded to a halt when she saw Adema was talking to him. Logan was nodding then the shrugged and Adema left.
"Logan," Rogue whispered and motioned for him to come to her.
Logan looked around and trotted toward Rogue. "Hey kid, how was classes.
"Good, but listen, I think Adema is planning on killing Professor Xavier."
"What?" Logan laughed.
Rogue nodded. "I heard him!"
Logan stopped laughing. "Okay kid," he said seriously when he saw her expression. "I'll talk to him."
"What were you two talking about a moment ago?"
"Nothing." Logan said. "I'll go talk to him right now." And Logan strode off.

At dinner Rogue watched as Adema and the other goths pulled Kurt into a corner where no one could hear them and talked to him. Kurt looked scared at first then after a while he smiled and nodded. Adema patted him on the shoulder and they moved out of the dining room and into the main foyer.
Kurt looked over his shoulder at the food, grabbed a dinner roll and trotted out after them.
Rogue hit Logan's shoulder and pointed over at Adema who was staring at Logan. "Aren't you going to talk to him?"
Logan sighed, took a bit of his lasagna and trotted after Adema who smiled at him. They went into the main foyer then Kurt took them all and teleported away.
Rogue ran into the foyer just as they disappeared. She heard the bamf of imploding air and she spun around and ran back inside heading for Scott Summers.
He smiled at her. "Hi Rogue."
"I think Adema is planning to kill Professor Xavier and his friends and Logan and Kurt are in on it."
Scott's eyebrows furrowed. "I knew that kid was a menace."
