Sorry this took me so long but I'm writing all of these at the same time.
If there are any people (specifically Americans) who are incredibly
Patriotic I suggest to you that you leave this fic alone and never return
to it.
Thank you!
I do own Helen and Mary but no one else

Mary opened her eyes slowly. She was tired but began to focus on the tree people around her.
"Nightcrawler?" she asked
"Yes?" he didn't seem nearly as distant as before
"At least I know one of your names" she sighed
"Well...actually it's Kurt" Mary looked hurt
"Why did you lie to me?"
"I didn't, it's my codename but I was pretty mad at how you reacted to me"
Mary blushed
"Very sorry about that" she apologised
"It's okay" Kurt shrugged
Mary's interest switched to the man in a wheelchair by her bed.
"Who are you? Where am I?" she asked
"I am Professor Charles Xavier. You're in the infirmary in my institute for the gifted" Mary stared at him
"Okaaaaaay" she didn't mean to sound ungrateful but she was still groggy
"Your in the united state of America" Mary sat up
"What?! Why?? Why did you bring me here?! You could have just taken me to a hospital" she cried
"We thought it best if you laid low while that terrorist group is still after you" Xavier explained
"I'm not Helen" Mary said
"Yes but," Xavier paused "Weren't they after you?" he looked confused
"No, I pretended to be Helen so that she'd be safe" Xavier still looked confused
"But, I thought"
"I'm not a mutant sir," she said simply. Kurt looked surprised, Logan (who was behind the other two leaning against the wall) perked up and Xavier looked shocked
"You mean Helen is?" Kurt asked
"Yes" she agreed. Mary suddenly remembered something "I was shot, wasn't I?"
"Um, yes. In the left shoulder blade" Mary gasped
"Then they'll know that I'm not Helen! I have to get back to England"
Logan moved forwards as she tried to struggle out of the many wires in her arms
"Hold it Kid, you aint goin' no where" He spoke with a lot of authority and Mary didn't fancy her chances of getting past him so she calmed herself down
Mary turned to Xavier
"Please sir, Helen's my friend, I don't want her to get hurt"
"I thought you were her cook" Kurt said
"True, but she's also my friend" there was a knock at the door
"Our little limy up yet?" Evan asked Cheerfully
"Yes I am, my dear little Yankee" Mary replied sharply
"Woah! Stressy!" Evan laughed. Only Kurt was close enough to hear her sigh
"I'm surrounded by Americans, God save me!"
"Mary, this is Evan Daniels" Xavier introduced "Evan, this is Mary"
Evan looked at her with definite appreciation
"You're hotter than I expected" he grinned as Mary's face twisted into a fake smiled
"Oh, are we looking at the brain capacity of, what, a ten year old?" Mary defiantly had a sharp tongue and a very quick wit
"What's Helen's power?" Kurt asked trying to stop those two arguing
"She has super strong skin, nothing can pierce it. That's why they'll know I'm not her, I got hurt when they shot me" Mary put her hand on the bandage
"I wouldn't do that," Xavier said. Mary smiled and brought her hand back onto lap
"I have to go back to England," She begged
"I'm sorry Mary but you will have to recuperate"
"So. Why can't I recuperate at MY home!!??" Mary cried, "I don't want to be here! Helen is going to be in terrible trouble!"
Logan walked out for a moment then returned with a phone
"Then warn her" he threw it onto the bed. Mary thanked him and turned to the Professor
"Sir? Could I make a very short but relatively long distance call?"
"My name is Charles Xavier and yes you may considering this girl may be in danger."
Mary looked at the phone for a second "Anyone know how I can phone England?"
*
Helen was incredibly worried, Mary had been missing for nearly three days. What if they tried to prove that she was a mutant and shot her?
The phone rang and Helen picked it up without thinking
"Hello?"
"Helen?" she nearly fell off the sofa
"MARY?!? Oh my goodness are you okay?!"
"I'm fine, you'll never guess where I am right now"
"Where?" 'She could be anywhere in the country right now!' Helen thought
"America"
"......."
"Helen?"
"..."
"Hello?"
Helen finally found her voice again
"YOU LUCKY COW!!! I would give anything to go to America right now! How did you get there? No wait, I know that! Did the kidnappers take you there? Have you got accommodation?"
"Why are you saying I'm lucky?"
"Helloooooo? America is so very very sophisticated!" Helen was practically jumping around the room now "Do you have accommodation?"
"What? Yes, but I want to come home!" Mary sounded upset
"WHY? Britain is dull as ditchwater at the mo! Have you escaped from the kidnappers?" Helen was confused, who in their right mind would favour this small, wet and dreary country over the bright lights and sass of America?
"Yes, but that's why I called. They know that I'm a fake and I'm sure they're gonna be after you soon"
Helen thought for a second
"I'll tell daddy that you're okay and well come to get you asap" she was certain that Mary sighed in relief on the other end of the line.
"That's good, I'm injured for the moment but please come, I want to make sure you're a-okay"
"All right Mary, hope what ever has happened to you heals quick as a flash. Byee!"

Mary looked relatively cheered as she hung up.
"Thank you Professor" she grinned and handed him the phone
"Looks like your friend thinks that America's kinda' cool" Evan smiled slyly
"That's because she is suffering from a chronic case of insanity" Mary sniped.
"This is going to be a difficult transferral, I can tell" Xavier sighed
