Chapter 3
I own 4 broken bones in my left hand, that is about it......... that and i type about 15 words a minute BECAUSE I HAVE BUT 12 HAND TO TYPE WITH FROM THIS CAST. It is worth it thought because I have Codeine, but im a little looped, my spelling is a little off and im capitalizing random words, if you can all put up with it i can write it.
The two teenagers stood in the living room, their hands locked, a great heat searing through their hands. They were holding their breath, and Felt dizzy. They realized at the same time due to Ghosts power that they were only dizzy because they were holding their breath. They also found out that the searing heat their hands felt was just the others body heat. Slowly, after a few minutes they let go, each putting their hand back into the gloves.
"Wow, i never knew. Thats what its like to hold hands huh?" Ghost said sheepishly, he could feel the mental link from physical contact fading quickly.
"Yeah, i guess. Never felt body heat from contact before, kidna scary." It was true, in all the times they had ever had contact with someone they had never felt body heat, It was always just a giant flash and a quick knock back for them.
Rouge was the first to speak, "So Ghost, you have any other name?"
"Nope, I picked it myself, hate it too." He gave a wry smil ."
"Any friends?"
"Nope"
"Anyone who calls you by that name?"
"nope"
"Then why don't you change it?"
"Im used to it"
"Nevermind, but you can choose whatever name you want. Just make sure its not one thats taken already. And you can pick a REAL name too. You will be going to school here, and the teachers must have something to call you."
" Cool, that much i can do, my real name will be Duo Maxwell (sorry, coulnd't think of a good name) and my new alias, well, do I have to have one?"
Rouge laughed, this kid had been there for barely an two hours and already he was having an effect on her attitude, a smart person would have compared it to being trapped in a room of idiots, and then albert einstein came in to keep you company. The conversation moved to the kitchen when Rouge heard his stomach growling, it sounded like logan did when he woke up. Duo didn't take the hint that he could help himself, he had to be told. Rouge watched in amazement as he scarfed down dinners elftovers, and emptied the fruitbowl on the counter.
"So, you people eat three times a day here huh?"
Rouge snapped out of her trance, it wasn't every day someone ate six plums, 4 bananas, 5 apples and 2 oranges in a matter of minutes.
"Yeah, but if your late for breakfast theres no promise that there will be anything left."
"K, sounds fair enough, 'sides i can go three days without eating, missing one meal isn't that big a deal"
Rouge sghuddered at the thought of missing one meal, she looked closer at this kid, he looked more like a punk from the 80's that had been frozen in time for ten years, she figured most of the look was just out of the homeless lifestyle, his hair was cropped short to his head, and spiked out in a few directions at differant lengths, but his body was another story, years of living on the streets had left him thin, he looked like he might have grown a good deal more had he been fed right, he was barely five and a half feet tall, and looked to weigh less than a hundred and ten poinds. Rouges thoughts were interupted when she noticed the other teen stare at her when she yawned.
"What time does Dr.Xavier get up?"
Rouge was never quite sure, since the mansion had blown the doctor had taken to sleeping on the chair, she suspected it had something to do with logan flossing with the spokes of his wheelchair, using said wheelchair as a antenna for his radio, or using same long-suffering wheelchair
"Can't be sure, the prof. wants to work with you, so he might be up by five, you should get to bed now, come on, i'll show you your room." Rouge said.
She felt bad to put him to bed, She wanted so badly for someone to talk to, someone who knew what it was like, something she had longed for. This kid must have been it, she wanted nothing more than to spend time with him and talk, he seemed to connect to her on a level no one else did. It was so odd, someone so like her, no one else was. She wondered when she could talk to him next, with school and whatnot it wouldn't be untill tomorrow night, but that was Friday, she would have the whole weekend to be with him. She couldn't wait. Someone who's hand she could hold, someone she could wear short sleeves around, most of all someone like her, finally.
Duo stepped into the new room, he instantly knew someone was in there so he left his headphones on, Rouge stood outside the door looking into the dark room.
"Your roomate is kurt, he is German, he doesn't bite. When you meet him just remember he isn't a tenth as scary as he might seem." Rouge closed the door and walked back to her room.
Duo felt around a little in the room, looking for the empty bed, he hadn't slept in a bed in so long, he had forgotten what it was like. He was startled as the light turned on, after his eyes readgusted he began to consider getting them checked, standing next to the lamp was a blue, furry deamon with a silly grin on his face. Instead of freaking out Dup figured this must be Kurt.
" I'm kurt, the proffesor told me i would be getting a new roomate, whats your name?"
Duo had little time to explain his name, once he had Kurt displayed his ability to teleport, and walk on walls, it was all in all a disturbing experience, and before Duo could stop him Kurt Had teleported behind him rambling on about how his room was your room and whatnot when Kurt padded him on the back of the neck, where his bare skin was.

Rouge had just settled into bed, Carefull not to wake Kitty across from her. Kitty had fallen asleep with another vampire movie on, Rouge had to admitt the whole vampire thing did have alot of sex appeal. Rouge was just drifting to sleep when the distinctive fhoomp sound of a teleport went off above her head, snapping the light on she saw Duo above her, walking around on the ceiling and seeming to have trouble getting down, He looked up (or down) at her, looking rather frazzled, began to babble, waking kitty in the process.
"THE BLUE DUDE TOUCHED ME AND NOW HE IS PASSED OUT"
Rouge reached up to him, grabbing him by the shoulders and pulled down, he fell to the floor with a bang, was quickly up, grabbed Rouge, and teleported back to his room, only to find he had teleported wrong and both of them were sunk into the ceiling up to their thighs, this was about the time Kurt was coming to, who seemed quite confused at the two teenagers who were now stuck in the ceiling. They were both yelling and in the room above them Scott woke up, seeing legs sticking out from his floor, kicking and he too began to shout.
"Duo teleport us again!" Rouge yelled, she had a feeling that he couldn't, usualyl when she "barrowed" kurts power she never got more than two or three teleports out of it, once she got five, but that was the most she had ever gotten. Sighing, and letting her arms hang down she waited for kitty to show up. Kurt was running down the hall towards Kittys room, but on the way encountered Jean, Scott, Logan and Spyke. Before long everyone was in Kurts room watching the dangling teens who had long sicne stopped yelling. Both had decided better to let their arms hang so the blood would go there instead of their heads. Eventually Kurt came back with Kitty, who simply reached up and phased them both out of the ceiling, after which they both fell to the floor in an awkward heap on each other. After a few minutes everyone cleared out, finally letting Duo and Kurt get some needed rest.
Well sorry the chapter is short, it will be longer next time, hand is still in a cast and it takes so long to type, it really sucks, and capitalizing is hard. read, review, and watch trigun..... trigun is cool....
