Hey there again! I decided to start on the third chapter again. I'm planning on making this one SUPER long. So don't expect it to be done like on chapter 17 or something. Well, here it is!

Chapter Three: Love at First Sight

Belle rushed home as fast as her wings could take her. She ran into the house and saw Warren staring off at the city on the balcony. Belle sighed, hoping not to break his sudden moment of peace into something as strange as her having another ability. She walked over and tapped on the balcony's glass door, catching Warren's attention.

"Belle? What's wrong? You look tired." He asked concernly.

He walked closer to her as she continued to pant.

"Warren, there's something happening to me. I think I have another ability. But I'm not sure."

Warren led her back inside from the balcony and quietly closed the balcony. Belle sat on the couch, watching Warren think for a moment.

"How'd you find out?"

Belle grew nervous. "I was at the water fountain cleaning my paper cut when I saw this little boy sliding to me. I was going to stop him so I moved my hand to him when suddenly this, this burst of water shot out, wetting the floor. He started to cry so when I caught him, I left right after his mother came. I-I didn't know what to do so I came back."

Warren could tell she was truly afraid of herself. He walked over and sat in front of her as she unbuttoned her coat.
"Belle, I think that you can control water too. But I'm not too sure. Should we experiment?"

Belle nodded as Warren went to grab a cup of water. He came back and handed Belle the cup. He sat back in his chair in front of her, trying not to make her even more nervous as she was now.
"Okay Belle, now try and make the water into something."

Belle nodded and closed her eyes tight. She placed her hands over the cup and concentrated. Warren grew nervous, thinking she would wear herself out even more. Suddenly, as Belle raised her hands, the water spun up into a mini water tornado. She gritted her teeth, making herself concentrate even more. Warren stood up and grabbed her hands to stop.
"Belle, it's alright. Calm down."
Belle suddenly sighed and shot her eyes open making the water splash back down into the cup. They both glimsped down at it then smiled at each other.

"Warren? Do I really have water controlling powers?"
Suddenly, a knock came to the door. Warren nodded and went to answer it. When he opened it, there stood Logan and Kitty. Warren nodded to them both with a smile.
"It's nice to see you all again."

"You too Warren." Said Logan.

Kitty looked around and saw Belle with her head down in her hands, panting. She looked to Warren and seemed concerned.
"What's wrong with Belle?"

"Please, come inside." He asked gently.

Logan and Kitty walked inside. Kitty went over to Belle and sat down next to her. She lifted her head and turned to her left to see.
"Kitty.? What are you doing here?" asked Belle, trying to relax.

"Oh, Mr. Logan and I came to see you!" said Kitty happily.

Belle glanced behind her and saw Warren talking to Logan. She arched her eyebrow and stood up.

"That's Mr. Logan?"

Logan saw Belle and turned to her.

"You must be Belle."

Belle nodded. Still confused about her new powers and what Kitty and this Mr. Logan was doing at Warren and her new home. "I'm sorry Logan, but Belle's just not ready yet."

"The institute will take good care of her Warren." Logan replied.

Kitty hopped up a bit. "I have an idea! How about Belle comes for one night and sees how it is?"

Warren looked to Belle, with a gentle smile that made her calmer.

"It's your choice Belle. I won't stop you."

Belle glanced off to the side. "Won't you be lonely?"

Warren shook his head. "I won't mind. I've been alone before you came anyway."

Belle didn't know what to say. She wanted to go with her new friend to see this Xavier Institute but she didn't want to leave Warren alone. Things just were so mixed up to her.

"Can I think about it?" she asked.

Kitty nodded. "Of course. You like, know my number right?"

Belle nodded. Kitty and Logan headed for the door as Warren followed them.

"You can call us anytime Belle, Warren." Said Logan nodding to them both.

"Thanks for coming Kitty! Remember tomorrow!"

"I will!"

Warren closed the door and saw something on the ground. He picked it up and skimmed through it. Belle went behind him and scanned through it also. Warren turned to Belle and handed it to her. "Belle, can you pick up this package for me? I have to do one more document."

She nodded happily, admiring the night's winds. "Of course!"

~*~ On the rooftop ~*~

Belle admired the night so much, she wished she could fly every second it held. She placed the paper in her pocket and removed her coat. She held it in her arms and raced off the building, gliding along with the wind. Belle looked down, gazing at the Christmas lights that glowed below until she saw the post office. Belle flew a little more and landed in the park again. She slipped back on her coat and started for the sidewalk.

The night's breezes blew fierce, making the lights ring against their poles as Belle pushed open the post office's doors. She walked up behind a guy with a dark colored trench coat, almost like Warren's. Belle listened carefully as the guy talked to the post editor.

"How much will dis package to New Orleans cost?"

"Twenty dollars sir."

"Twenty!? Remy knows some otha place where it's cheapa!"

The guy grumbled and handed over a twenty dollar bill and started for the door until he bumped into Belle. She gazed back and saw the guy smile.

"Oh sorry mademoiselle."

Belle nodded and turned back to the post editor, handing him the slip of paper. The guy kept walking until he noticed something about Belle. A white feather slipped out of her coat. The guy smirked and walked out.

~*~ Somewhere nearby ~*~

"'Bout time ya' got back." Said a blonde reddish haired guy in a red Pontiac Thunderbird.

The other guy mumbled something and slipped into the passenger side. He kicked his feet up on the dashboard and turned to his partner.

"Remy had ta' pay twenty dollars for a package to New Orleans!"

The other guy shrugged. "Sorry mate, guess that's how it is here."

The guy started the car and drove onto the road.

"Y' know, Remy saw a belle in dere."

"Yeah? Whadda 'bout 'er?"

"Remy tinks Magz will like her. Remy tinks she's one of us."

~*~ Back over to Belle ~*~

Belle walked out of the post office with a medium sized box. She raced back into the park and removed her coat. Her wings flapped for a quick moment until she started to rise from the ground. Belle flew towards the clouds and flew back to the rooftop to see Warren.
She landed on the rooftop, slipped her coat back on, and raced back to see Warren again. Belle opened the door and saw Warren sitting on his chair by his desk, moving his pen around, trying to think. Belle walked over and placed the box at the corner of his desk. Warren looked up at Belle and smiled.

"Go ahead and open it. It's addressed to you, you know." Belle glimsped at the package and saw her full name and her new last name written in black ink on the top. She cut open the box and saw a large photo album inside. Her eyes brightened as she snatched it into her arms. "It's my photo album! How? How'd they find it Warren?" she asked excitedly.

"I think it was the only thing of yours that survived the fire." He
replied.

Suddenly, a knock came to the door. Warren sighed and chuckled.
"Geez, tonight's really busy."

He walked over and answered it. Belle happily walked into her room and placed the photo album on her shelf. She came back out and turned to Warren as he glared at a man in a black trench coat with two young men beside him. One of them was the one she saw at the post office. "Warren? Do you know them?" The blonde reddish haired guy turned and froze for a moment. He had never seen any girl as beautiful as her. When Belle's eyes met his, he turned away immediately, focusing his attention on Warren. Belle walked up beside Warren and looked at the three men.

"Ah, this must be Belle Worthington." Said the man. He tipped his hat to her. "I'm Erik Lenscherr. And this is-"

"Look Magneto, I know exactly what you're trying to do. And it's not going to happen."

"Oh really Angel? Let Belle decide for herself."

The red-blonde haired guy swallowed, trying to think of why he's thinking of her so much. Belle crossed her arms, making her hair bounce a bit.

"No. If Warren says it's not safe, then I'm not. I've already gone through enough danger in my life."

Magneto scuffed and turned to his men. "Pyro, Gambit, let's go." The two men left as Magneto looked back at Belle and Warren. "Think about it. We'll be back soon."

~*~ 5 minutes later ~*~

"Warren? Are you alright?" asked Belle as she waited outside of her room.

Warren looked to her and sighed.

"Belle, I don't want you going to the wrong group. I just want-"

Belle giggled and leaned against the doorway.

"Warren, don't worry! I'll be fine."

Warren smiled and sat down in a chair. "Well, you do know you're going to school tomorrow right?"

"School?" Belle seemed excited already. "Tomorrow? What school?"

"From what I've heard, it's different from your old one. You're going to Bayville High. Kitty's going to pick you up tomorrow in the morning to take you."

"Really?! Oh gawd, I can't wait! I have to get ready!"

Warren laughed at her excitement. "You're new school stuff is in your new backpack."

Belle ran over and hugged Warren happily. "Oh thank you, thank you, thank you!"

There you have it everyone! Belle's going to Bayville High with the rest of the X-Men! Oh yeah, and I should tell you, the Acolytes except Piotr, Sabertooth, Magz, and Mastermind go to Bayville. Meaning, Pyro and Remy go to Bayville High!! Woo hoo! Reviews and comments please!
