Chapter 4

Researching

            Cissy tossed and turned in her bed. The shadows passed over the room. Cissy didn't know how Tina could sleep. She could not stand the loudness of the silence. Ever since she was a child she slept to the sounds of New York City. She rolled to her side and looked at her roommates in the dark.

            Jubilee body thrashed around her bed, and without her even breathing Cissy would have that she was awake. Even though Cissy had only known her for a day, Jubilee was becoming a fast friend. After joking with her over supper, and then having her couch her at pool, they both realized they had things in common. Which Cissy found amazing since they were from different times.

            Cissy shifted her eyes as she heard a moan sound from the other side of the room. Tina was curled into a ball, dreaming away effortlessly. Her red curls blocked her face, but Cissy knew her blue skin would be shining from happiness. It wasn't often one was able to see their dead brother. But again, Kurt Wagner didn't even know who his mother was at the moment.

            Ice had explained the history of Tina's family to her when Tina first arrived at his door stop. The mutant named Mystique had given birth to Kurt but then abandoned him in the hills of Germany when she was being persecuted because of her baby's blue skin. Years later, long after Mystique teamed up with Magneto, she had given birth to a baby girl. For some reason Mystique found Kurt and told him the truth. Kurt was shocked, especially after his long lost mother handed him his sister. It was lucky for Tina that was raised by her brother since her mother was the leader of the 2011 mutant attack in San Francisco. It was presumed that she was killed under the nuclear blasts, but with a shifter you never knew. Cissy knew Tina loved her brother very much. But finally about 5 years ago he murdered in the home the pair shared in Long Island. Tina found Ice's address from Kurt's computer system. And that is how Cissy ended up with her best friend.

            Cissy noisily turned over in her bed. She stared at the shape under Rogue's blanket. The story of Marie was not one Ice told often. Even after almost twenty years, Ice was still grieving for his lost love. Cissy knew that Ice blamed himself for her death. And now it bothered her that Ice was there in the future grieving all alone.

            2003. Cissy thought. She was in the year 2003. If her memory for history served her right she remembered the Mutant Registration Act was passed in the spring of 2004. So that meant she had four months to prevent that future from happening. To prevent the death of the Professor that happened in 2005. To save Kurt. To save Ice's Rogue. She knew the Professor thought that he could solve it himself, but if he was so sure, how did he end up dead?

            Cissy sat up on her mattress. She could not pretend to rest any longer. She eased her way across the room, wincing at the sound of boards squeaking. Only Jubilee stirred but that wasn't unusual. She sent one last look at Rogue. She needed to save her for Ice.

Cissy sat herself down at the Professor's computer. His office had been open, so she snuck herself in. She looked over the computer and felt odd. Even though at this time the computer was considered spanking brand new, to her it looked too huge to be considered a computer. She figured out how to turn on the computer and waited it to start up. It seemed like hours before the login screen boosted on. She gulped at the thought of having to break the Professor's code. Then she thought about it. She guessed she could probably guess Bobby's password. How many times did Ice say he had been using the same password since he was an X-Man. She began typing.

            ~Login name: Iceman~

            She paused, wishing silently that she had her own account.

            ~Password: *******~

            The screen blinked for a few minutes, processing the information. She hoped that he had already given Rogue the ice rose for the first time. That was one of the few stories he didn't mind telling about his love. About how no matter how bad things got, he created them a ice rose symbolizing how they felt for each other. And every year on the anniversary of Marie's death, he made an ice rose.

            The screen flashed green, and left Cissy staring at Bobby's desktop. It surprised her that it was a picture of his family that was his wallpaper. He stood beside his mother and his father with his brother in front of him. The picture showed a happy family without any problems. It was the same print Ice had hung in his room back home.

            She ignored the emotions churning up inside when she started to go through his files. It bothered her only slightly that she was preening at his private thoughts as she read over his computer diary. She just had to remind herself that this was to protect him in the future. She shuddered at the typed thoughts of a teenager. Some things she just didn't want to know.

            She quickly made it through all his network files, breezing over English papers, history reports, and physic labs. She noticed a blue X icon flashing at the bottom of the screen. She went to click on it when she heard the door open. She ducked behind the desk and cursed silently.

            Footsteps could be heard as the person crossed over to the desk. A click could be heard and Cissy stared at the fireball in shock. John sent her a smile as he pulled the fireball away from her face.

            "What are you doing up and about? Didn't pond wear you out?" He asked, clicking his lighter absently. She watched in amazement as he effortless eased the fire back into his lighter.

            "I couldn't sleep." She mumbled.

            He sent her a disbelieving look. He helped her out from under the desk, and watched her carefully. "So that is why you are under the Prof's desk? And that is why you were looking on the computer under…" He glanced at the screen and let out a chuckle. "Damn. How did you get under Icey's name?"

            The color left her face as she tried to shut off the monitor, but he stood in front of her. "I..uh..I guessed."

            He shook his head. "So we have a computer hacker here." He seemed to think about it. "So what does Bobby have on his computer?" He began browsing through the files, just like she was previously doing.

            "Hey, stop that!" She hit his hand, trying to dislodge it from the mouse.

            He sent her an absent look as he discovered the X icon. "Why does Bobby have access to the X-Men archives?"

            She shrugged, her fingers were itching to continue her research, but she had to get John away. For the life of her, Cissy could not remember Ice telling her about this mutant. "I don't think you should go on."

            "Ah why not? You hacked on to his account." He hit the icon and both of them quiet as the screen glowed blue. "Damn, The Prof has all our information here." He browsed over names and went to click on his own.

            Cissy wanted suddenly to learn all she could about this reckless boy, but she had to stop him. "Oh my God." She shrieked.

            John looked up shocked. "What?"

            She looked at him innocently. "I thought I heard a noise. We better get off."

            He seemed to think about it. "I guess, knowing my luck, Wolverine will be up." He logged out of the system and then out of Bobby's account.

            Cissy let out a sigh of relief as she walked out of the room with John. They both approached the stairs when they almost swallowed their tongues.

            Bobby was walking out of the kitchen holding an ice cream container. He sent the pair an odd look. "What are you to doing up so late?" He licked the spoon.

            Both stood there frozen. "Umm, just some research." Cissy squeaked.

            Bobby looked back at the direction they came from and noticed the door open in the Rec room, and he noticed John's indifference and Cissy's flushed face. He nodded. "Ah, research. Cool." At the word a stream of breezed out of his mouth. His smile lit up. "Well, sorry to kill the…umm researching mood. See you both in the morning." He walked up to his room with his ice cream.

            John and Cissy stared at each other. "He thought we…" Cissy could not finish her sentence.

            John sent her one of his cocky smiles. "Would that be such a bad idea?"

            Cissy took a step back from him. "I am not sure yet." And then she raced up to her room leaving him behind. She doubted she will have trouble sleeping now after the excitement she just had.
