Chapter 2
"Do you guys still have extra paint from " Lita started to say but got interrupted by Kitty running down the hall screaming. Everyone but Rouge who was already pissed at Kitty looked at the door.
"You Painted the walls Black" Kitty screamed at Wanda and Tabby.
"Well yeah what would you expect, Pink Walls with Flowers" Tabby Questioned.
"Lita you're like my cousin. Why don't you like want to stay in the same room with me?" Kitty asked.
"Well I personally don't want to have Pink walls so you can be by yourself or find someone else to bunk with." Lita said as she motioned Kitty out of their room so they could paint.
Wanda turned on her CD player and started playing Good Charlotte. "Oh my love, please don't cry. I'll wash my bloody hands and we'll start a new life." Rogue, Tabby, Wanda, and Lita were all singing together while they were painting. Jean came back to the room to make sure that Rogue and Kitty weren't fighting again and heard the music. "Hey you guys have to turn off that music Professor X said so." Jean said lying to get her way. "Really we have played this before and he never told us to turn it off." Rogue said. -Jean come to my office- Professor X thought to Jean. "I'm going to go tell Professor X. what you're listening to." Jean said trying to get away without having to tell them she was in trouble. "Bye Jean" Tabby said while turning up the volume. Knock, Knock, Knock "Come In" Lita tried to yell over the music. "Hey can you turn your music down, Who are you?" Scott said. "Lita. You know. The girl you met this morning." "Well you don't look like you did when I met you earlier, you went shopping with Rogue didn't you?" Scott finally realized. "Yeah so why is everyone all of a sudden care what we look like, and WHAT WERE YOU SAYING ABOUT MY SHOPPING!!" Rogue caught on with a glare. "You seen Kitty's face?" Rogue said acting calmly "Yeah looks like y... you won that fight." Scott said trying to suck up "Well...umm...uh maybe we can go for a bite to eat later when Rogue is out with her friends." Scott whispered to Lita trying to stay quite. "Hey were finally done, what time is it?" Wanda asked while yawning. "Its two o'clock in the morning. We'll let the walls dry over night then we can put the second coat on, kay?" Tabby asked hoping to go to bed soon.
*Bamf * Kurt teleported into Scott's room trying not to wake him up. Kurt walked across the ceiling and made his way to the desk right next to Scott's bed. He dropped noiselessly onto the ground and rifled through Scott's many books and binders looking for Scott's English test review. He picked up a particularly heavy, red spiral notebook hoping that it was Mrs. Hudson's English review. What he found was much more interesting than any review could be.
While Kurt was busy looking for the review Scott was dreaming that he and Jean were walking hand in hand in the park. Just as he began to lean in to kiss Jean a tree near by them caught on fire. "I'll save you Jean just stand back," said Scott. He must have said this out loud because Kurt looked over at him and, panicking, teleported out of the room. "My hero," Jean said (back in Scott's dream). Just as Scott was about to save the day he noticed that the smoke smelled like sulfur, He woke up sweating and looked around and remembered his dream he wondered why he had to wake up but left it as a mystery for the morning hoping to go back to the dream. When Kurt arrived in his room he sat on his bed and opened Scott's notebook in amazement. "Wow what is this doing in Scott's English Notebook, I don't think Mrs. Hudson assigned Scott Jean as a project?" Kurt wondered out loud "I better get this back before he notices its gone." Kurt said out loud once again. *Bamf* Kurt was once again in Scott's room, but not before snapping a quick picture, or eight, of the notebook covered with Jean's name and little notes and other things Kurt was sure he wasn't suppose to know about. "Oh man Scott is going to kill me when he finds out but it will be worth it." Kurt said as he teleported into bobby's room. "Hey Bobby, come on man wake up I have to show you this!" Kurt whispered trying not to wake Evan who shared the room with Bobby. "Go away Kurt! What do you want?! It's almost 3 in the morning and I know I don't have to get up for school till six so just...""No man just look it's worth it I swear. Would the fuzzy one lie to you?" Kurt interrupted him "It's a prank involving Scott. Well maybe not a prank more like black mail," he said knowing he had the perfect way to get what he wanted. "Well what do you have in mind? I mean its not like Scott has anything you want right?" "He might not right now, but one of these days I will need a favor and then this," he held up the notebook, "will be helpful." "Yeah I have to agree with you but dude I need to get some sleep. You should get some too." "Yeah your right. Night Bobby. See you in the morning," Kurt said and teleported into his room to get some sleep.
The next morning someone was shaking Lita awake violently. "Lita get up its time for school. You cant be late or your in trouble, and if you plan to take a warm shower then you really need to get up and beat everyone to it. We have already had ours. Lita opened her eyes and saw Wanda, Rogue, and Tabby all in bathrobes. "All right I'm up Tabby, stop shaking me. So are one of you going to show me where the bathroom is?" "Yeah come on Ah'll show ya." Lita followed Rogue down the hall and into the bathroom. When they got within three yards of the door they saw Jean about the same distance on the opposite side of the door. "Jean get out of our way," yelled Rogue. "No I don't think I want to. I will be taking my shower now if you don't mind." Rogue walked closer to the door. "Well Ah do. Lita needs to get ready for school." "Well so do I and do you know how long it takes to get my hair that strait and my makeup that perfect. So get out of my way." Jean used her telekinetic powers to push Rogue away from the door. "That is enough! I am taking my shower and if you don't like it that is your problem. Leave Rogue out of it." Lita had walked into the bathroom while Jean had been arguing with Rogue. "Come back in 15 minutes I should be done by then," Lita said with a smile and closed and locked the door.
Lita emerged from the bathroom looking as she did the day before, and went back into her room. All of the girls had gotten ready and were waiting to leave. "Good job of covering your black eye Rogue," Lita said coming into the room. "So are we ready to go to school?" "Yeah come on lets go," Tabby said running through the door.
During lunch the four girls met up. "Lita we have an extra class today back at the institute. The prof. thinks you should see what all of us can really do," Wanda said. "So you mean I get to see what." "Shh!" Tabby hissed. "Not everyone knows. You know about what we can do." "So you mean I have to go through training with you? Even though?" Lita asked. "Yup. The professor thinks that you should be able to handle it. He says that your on the team. Scott wasn't happy to find out that you were on the team and didn't have powers but I think that he is okay with it now," Tabby said with the wink. "Yeah Ah think that he might have takin' a likin' to ya," Rogue said with a devious grin.
The bell rang signaling for the second part of the day to begin. "Well that's our cue to go to class I guess? Lets go then," Lita said standing. "Yeah we know," the rest mumbled grudgingly as they stood.
By the end of the day even Lita, who could hardly contain her excitement the night before about going to an American school, was ready to leave the school. "Damn! And we still have to do the training with Logan," Tabby groaned. "Oh come on guys you make it sound like that training isn't fun," Lita said stretching. "How would you know about what training is like?" Wanda asked. "Uh I don't. I just think that working out is fun and it sounds a lot like that I guess," Lita said (insert not wanting them to know about her past in Tokyo. "Ah guess," Rogue said.
~* In The Danger Room (when they got home from school.)*~
"Scott you and Kurt are sparing pairs. Half-pint you and Evan. Amara, you and Jubs. Rhyne, you can go with Jamie. Tabby you are with Wanda. I want Jean and Rogue together, so that means that Lita, you can just watch for now," Logan said. "Go! Now!"
Everyone did as they were told but were soon interrupted by a flying object, namely Rogue, obstructing their progress. Jean had jus thrown her across the room using her telekinetic power. "Sorry Kurt," Rogue said as he landed on him. "Can Ah borrow a little bit of ya?" she asked removing her glove. "Uh sure, just not to much," he said a little worried. "Course not," she said touching him with only two fingers. Then * Bamf * she was next to Jean. "Hello," she said reaching out. Jean pushed her away with much more powers than she ment too. Rogue continued to come at her until one of Jean's surges threw her to the wall. Jean advanced on her with a somewhat evil glint in her eye. She was laughing slightly under her breath. "Jean stop," Logan said, but Jean continued her advance on Rogue. She used her Telekinesis to lift Rogue up in the air and slammed her into the wall. She did this about two times before someone called out, "Jean stop!" This was not a request as it had been with Logan, this was a demand. Everyone turned behind them. Lita was standing there, but she did not look like the Lita as they knew her. Her eyes were glittering with tiny bolts of electricity. Her hair was alight with the same tiny bolts. "Put her down now!" Jean was still not listening, she had managed to slam Rogue into the wall three more times. "Jean," Lita said as lightning collected in her hand. "Put her down!" Lita emphasized her point by throwing a small hand full of lightning. This seemed to bring Jean back to her senses some because she stopped herself from throwing Rogue into the wall again, but still had her suspended in midair. "Put her down!" This time Lita did not just throw a small bit of lightning, she threw a full bolt, which hit Jean in the back causing her to lose her grip on Rogue who dropped a few feet to the ground. Scott ran over to Jean, picked her up, and carried her to the med bay. Lita walked over to Rogue, lifted her, and with Wanda's help, carried her to the med bay.
When they got there Lita said "thanks a lot Scott for your help." "Um. Uh." Scott stuttered. "Don't even say a word," Wanda said glaring at him.
-Lita I need to have a word with you. Will you please come back into the danger room. Logan, Ororo and I are waiting for you here.-
"Oh no," Lita said holding her forehead. "What is it?" Wanda asked in concern. "The professor wants to talk to me," Lita replied. "I don't think it should be bad. I am really happy that you have powers. I was wondering why the professor wanted you to stay here. I mean. um. I am happy you are here but it was just weird that you didn't have powers and you were here." "Yeah you're tellin me. I didn't know that I." she trailed off and said, "Well I better to go now." Lita walked towards the door.
"Yes professor?" Lita asked as she stepped through the door. "Lita please come in. I wanted to ask you if you knew that you had these powers," the professor said. "Yes I knew. But I didn't think that I could use them out of transformation." "Transformation?" Logan asked. "Yeah. Watch," Lita said. She drew a small green pen with Jupiter's planetary sign on it. Logan, Ororo and Charles watched as Lita shyly raised the pen in the air and said, "Jupiter Power!"
