Still not feeling all that well so this chapter is kind of short. It's
better than nothing right?
The entire thing is done in Destiny's POV
"I'd like to stay, sir," I say.
"Excellent!" Xavier spots Bobby and Kurt getting drug over by two girls. Oh boy, I think. "Ah! Kitty, Rogue, I would like you to meet your new roommate," Xavier gestures to me.
The girl holding Bobby's hand in her gloved one speaks first, "Hi, ah'm Rogue. This is-"
"Bobby," I finish. Rogue and the other girl look at me confused. "I set his shirt on fire earlier this morning." I turn to Bobby and give him an apologetic half-smile. "Sorry about that. I hope I didn't burn you."
"Uh no, you didn't burn me," he says scratching his head somewhat baffled. "You seem more, ah what's the word I'm looking for?"
"Tame. In control," I supply.
"Yeah those work I guess."
The other girl has brown hair and wears a pink shirt. She extends her hand and I shake it. "My name is Kitty but I'm sure you already knew that after the professor said our names." She tugs Kurt next to her, "This is my boyfriend, Kurt."
"Hallo Kurt. Wie geht's es Ihnen?" I say suddenly in German. Since when do I speak German? "German is your native tongue correct?"
Kurt just looks at me then at Xavier. Logan starts laughing. Slowly smiles and hidden giggles escape from Rogue, Bobby and Kitty. "I think she's in good company, Chuck," Logan says.
"Indeed," Xavier agrees. "Will you four show our new guest around the grounds and introduce her to some of the other students?"
"Sure, Professor," Kitty answers. Xavier and Logan leave me here with two boys who don't really like me and their girlfriends. Kitty turns to me and asks, "What's your name?"
I shift my weight from foot to foot uncomfortable. "I-I do not remember."
She looks down at her shoes whispering, "Sorry."
"Don't be. It's not your fault I cannot remember some things. Tell me about yourselves like your abilities."
"Well Bobby can freeze things and Kurt teleports. I can walk through solid objects," Kitty says.
"What about you Rogue?" I ask.
"When people touch mah skin, ah absorb their memories and life-force. With mutants, ah temporarily have their powers."
"So how does that work with you and Bobby?"
"Let's just say we're working on that," she smiles. "So what about ya? What can ya do?"
"I can start fires and control them, heal myself and others, and I think I can see the future. I'm not sure how the future-seeing thing works yet," I say shaking my head.
A woman's voice echoes across the grounds via the PA system. "Classes start in ten minutes. There will be no tardiness."
"Classes?" I wonder out loud.
"Haven't you bee assigned any?" Bobby asks me. I shake my head.
Kitty links her arm through mine. "That's okay. You can come to my classes with me and get a feel for what you would like to take. Plus I can show you around the school so you won't get lost."
"I should probably go to the hospital wing. Dr. Grey wanted to run some tests on me," I back out of Kitty's offer.
"Ah'll take ya there," Rogue says. "Mah first class don't start till twelve thirty. Its only eleven now."
"Thanks."

Rogue leads me to the hospital wing and continuously glances at me. A couple of times she has opened her mouth as if to say something but shuts it before any sound can escape.
"Rogue, just say whatever you want to say to me," I tell her stopping in the middle of the corridor. "I won't get angry. Promise."
"Ah keep wondering to mahself if ya could be related to Logan or Scott. Ya look like a female version of Scott except yar hair is black instead of brown. And ya kind of act like Logan." She rubs the spot between her eyes thoughtfully. "Yar powers are even similar."
