Chapter 2
Everyone climbed back into the van and headed back to the X-jet, Leigh mostly being quiet except for when she was asked a question.
"So Leigh, what do you like to do for fun." asked Kitty as they once again left the van and climbed into the x-jet.
"I like to play soccer." Leigh replied.
Kurt chimed in and told about Jean Grey.
"Oh by the way, my name is Kurt." He said extending his hand for a friendly hand shake.
"I'm Leigh." "I know"
Leigh looked out the window with a nervous glare in her eyes.
"Are you okay?" Kitty asked. "You don't look to good."
"Yeah I'm fine just a scared of heights, and air planes. My father was killed in a plane crash."
Leigh tried not to think of flying and turned her attention on Kurt.
"So Kurt, What kind of mutant are you?"
"You really want to know?" He asked.
"Yeah." Replied.
"Okay, but you have to promise you won't get scared."
"I won't."
Kurt turned off his inducer and was his normal furry blue self.
"Wow" was the only word she could manage. She had never been around other mutants except her father, much less one with blue fur.
"Does it hurt?" She asked.
"No" he replied.
Leigh studied him. She reached out and cautiously rubbed the fur on his arm. It was soft like a teddy bear.
"Is that the only thing you do, Change colors I mean?"
"No." he replied.
"Well, what else can" And in the middle of her sentence POOF! He was gone
Leigh looked around and couldn't find him any where.
POOF! There he was again.
"Wow! That was awesome."
"You really think so?" he asked. "Yeah."
All the way home they talked about the school and everyone else's abilities. When they finally arrived at Mutant manor, it was almost dark.
"Come on Leigh, I'll show you to your room." Kitty said as she helped Leigh carry her bags up the stairs. "Oh and Kurt, don't forget you have wakeup duty in the morning."
You could hear Kurt from upstairs "Man I hate wake up duty."
"What is wakeup duty?" Leigh asked curiously.
"Well, we only have two alarm clocks in the place, Professor Xavier has one, and we take turns with the other one. Who ever has it has to come around and wake everyone else up." Kitty explained. "But we don't have to get up early because this is the summer, school isn't in yet."
Kitty showed Leigh where her room was and helped her start unpacking her things. After that Leigh went to bed. It had been a long day for her.
The next morning.....
"Good morning sun shine," Kurt said as he stood right over Kitty head.
"Kurt what are you doing?" She asked
"Hey if I got to get up do you think I'm going to let you sleep?"
Kurt stood there until she got up. Then it was time to wake up Leigh. Kurt walked into her room. All you could hear was snoring. Kurt leaned over her and said, "Leigh time to get up." But she didn't move. "Leigh?" He said again. This time he grabbed her shoulders and shook her. Leigh finally woke up.
"About time." He said
"Kurt why are you waking me up?" She asked. "It's 8:00."
"I wanted to show you around." He replied. "Introduce you to everyone."
Leigh rolled over and gave him the worst go to hell look ever.
"I'll be waiting down stairs." He said.
"I think that would be a good idea." She said as she crawled out of bed and rummaged through her stuff for something to wear. She pulled out a yellow tank top and some baggy jeans.
When she came down stairs, Kurt was waiting in the dinning room with her plate of pan cakes.
"Thanks," she said as she poured a glass of coffee for herself.
Leigh was eating breakfast and she decided she would have a little fun. She threw up her hands and yelled stop.
Suddenly there was a ripple effect (similar to the one you get when throw a pebble into the water) and everything just seemed to stop in thin air. She quickly ate her breakfast and put her plate away. Then she stood next to the door way and yell go. Like a flash, everything was moving regularly again.
"Coming?" She asked a very confused Kurt.
"Wait, what did you, how did you do that?" "Duh, I can stop time. Remember?" she said in a sarcastic way.
Getting over that little episode, Kurt took Leigh around Mutant Manor and introduced her to everyone. Leigh thought this place was great compared to being at home, with her mother and her abusive step father always trying to hurt her and her mother. She didn't want to come because she would be leaving her mother there with him by herself. Her mother gave her this look that told her this was her one chance for happiness, so she better go now.
Leigh shook the thought out of her head.
Authors note: Well what do you think, is it getting better or worse? Please review and tell me what needs to be done. Oh and sorry for such short chapters.
