*Whistling to some Christmas tune* Well, I think that the last chappy was the best I've ever done. Don't you agree? I hope the rest of the chappies are just as good. Bon apetit!

When Logan drove up to the mansion, the troop got out.
"Professor," Jean began. "Kitty wants you to clear her head. She says that she needs some help."
Professor Xavier looked toward Kitty, and she nodded.
"Well, Kitty. Let's head up to my study. I'll see what I can do." He wheeled around and headed inside.
Kitty, Jean, Rogue, Kurt, and Scott followed.
When they got in the hall, the boys continued on to their rooms.
The girls headed inside the study with the Professor.
Xavier sat Kitty down on a large chair, while Jean and Rogue sat on the couch.
"Kitty. You know there are no easy answers. I cannot just simply make what happened go away. If I do that, you'll never fully heal. But I will help you to try and overcome what's happened."
"Okay," Kitty said weakly.
He put his hands to his temples, and began to concentrate. He gave Kitty the mental energy to wipe Duncan from her mind.
Kitty began to see Duncan in her mind's eye. Suddenly, everything was fast, as if life were going fast- forward. She saw the rape, but from the outside.
_Oh, god!_ she thought. _It looks even worse from the outside!_
^Concentrate, Kitty!^ she heard.
She put forth a lot of energy, and suddenly, she was pulled from the trance.
Rogue looked at her. "Well, how does it feel?" she asked.
"I still feel...depressed." Kitty said sadly. "But I feel like I can deal with it now. I know I can live past this. I can!"
Kitty stood up. She was so relieved! She leaned over and kissed the Professor on the forehead. "Thank so much, Professor!" she called.
The girls ran out of the study.
Professor Xavier chuckled to himself. _Girls._ he thought, rolling his eyes.

KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK!
Kurt looked toward his door. He sighed wearily. "Who is it?"
"It's me, Kurt. Kitty."
Kurt jumped up and opened the door for her. "Kitty, how are you?" They sat on his bed. She smiled. "I feel a lot better, Kurt. Professor helped me with my problems, and now...it's not so overwhelming."
She seemed genuinely happy. "That's great, Katzchen." He kissed he lightly on the cheek.
She thought for a moment, and then scowled.
"Kurt, did you fight Duncan?"
He looked down. "Yes, I did. I'm sorry, Katz, but-."
"It's alright," Kitty interrupted him. "He's had it coming for a long time. So, how bad did you beat him?" She smiled.
"He had to go to the hospital. I think I broke his nose, and sprained a wrist or two of his, not to mention a black eye. And tons of bruises and scratches." he said, smiling.
Kitty laughed. "You broke his nose? Can you imagine pretty boy Duncan Matthews walking around with a bandage around his huge, swollen, nose?" They laughed together.
"Hey," Kurt said. "Wanna go to the library?"
"The one in the institute?" Kitty asked. Kurt blushed bright purple. "Ya," he said. "I'm a wee bit grounded."
Kitty laughed at this. "Really? For how long?" He groaned and said, "One month. And Scott and I have to take extra sessions with Logan, AND clean the Blackbird."
"Ouch," Kitty said. "Sure, let's go to the library. I'll go get my stuff."
They headed down the hall and Kitty phased through her door. She picked up her book bag, and her hair fell in her face. "Ug," she groaned. She headed to the bathroom for a scrunchie.
She saw one on the floor, and bent over to pick it up. Suddenly, and huge pain swelled across her side and abdomen.
She cried aloud and fell to the ground. Clutching her abdomen, she sobbed and gasped for air.

Kurt was waiting in the hall, when he heard Kitty cry. "Kitty?" he asked. He teleported into the room. She wasn't in there, but he heard gasping in the bathroom.
He ran in, and saw Kitty on the floor, against a wall, sobbing.
"Kitty!" he cried and ran to her.
"Help me," she gasped. "It hurts."
* * * * * *grins evilly.* Sorry for the cliffy, AGAIN! LOL. Okay, what do you think? And no, what happened to Kitty was not a result of the mental probing, just in case you were thinking it. Okay, so, what are you waiting for? Review! Go on! Shoo!
