*Groan* I have no idea why I'm doing this. Oh well, some people obviously
want me to continue with this and I aim to please so *meh*
*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*
"Come on Chrissa! We have to keep moving!" Kurt cried
"But it hurts!" Chrissa moaned
"I know it does but if we don't get out of here the mean man with white hair will catch up with us"
Chrissa went even paler than she already was; she remembered the pain she had suffered in that machine.
Her quickened pace didn't last though and within a few minutes Chrissa collapsed from exhaustion
"I'm sorry" she sobbed "I'm sorry"
"I know" Kurt whispered and stroked her hair gently. she looked confused and frightened, he knew that this world scared her a little, the heat, the walking, the clean air. Everything she had never experienced before. He felt very sorry for her.
"I'm stupid" she carried on sadly
"You're not that Chrissa, just uneducated" Kurt sighed, Chrissa looked at him strangely, not understanding the word he'd just used. "I'm going to carry you for a bit Okay?"
Chrissa nodded quietly and Kurt lifted her up into his arms.
"Why don't I do that thing again?" Chrissa asked
"You're too weak, another port would take more energy than you have" He explained
"What's energy?" she asked
"Energy is an invisible thing that makes everything move" Kurt smiled quietly "When you're tired that's because you don't have much of it"
"Oh" Chrissa went into deep thought and tried to make sense of what he'd said.
Kurt carried her along the river, stopping so that they could both drink every now and then. He guessed that it was midday because the sun was very high up in the sky which meant it was even harder for Chrissa to adapt. Sweating was another thing that had never happened to her before and she asked Kurt why she was leaking.
"Your body's letting out water through your skin to cool it down, it's called sweating" Kurt explained calmly, constantly having to explain things should have annoyed him but Kurt felt proud that he was teaching his new friend things she needed to know.
"Ah" Chrissa added 'Sweating' to her growing vocabulary, to her Kurt was an angel. He'd taken her out of the little room and although the outside world hurt her skin and made her feel ill she was eternally grateful.
"Look!!" Kurt cried as he saw a small village on the distance.
"What's that?" Chrissa asked
"It's a town, it's when lots of people live closely together is different buildings" Kurt explained before she asked him to.
"But its so far away" Chrissa moaned
Kurt bit his lip and sat her down by the river they were still walking beside
"You remember when I told you about energy a while ago?" he asked
"Yes" Chrissa replied
"Do you think you have enough to teleport us over to those trees?"
Chrissa looked at them, they were far away and she didn't have as much of that energy stuff as she'd had before. She looked behind them at the factory she'd called home since she was born and shuddered. Getting away from there was now her first priority, she had to try.
In a shaky cloudy of smoke they were there. Chrissa instantly threw up on the ground and asked Kurt what had just happened. He sat down beside her and held her close as she sobbed
"It's perfectly normal" he said calmly "Your body didn't understand what was happening and decided to empty your stomach"
"Kurt, I don't feel good" Chrissa said sadly
Kurt put his hand to her forehead and began to look worried
"You're hot, I think you've got sunstroke"
"What's that?" Chrissa muttered
"Not good, stay here in the shade, I'll be back in a minute"
Kurt walked off and saw a telephone booth not to far away. Unfortunately there were lots of people walking around and Kurt couldn't just teleport there anymore.
'Wait' he thought 'I've got an idea'
*_*_*_*_*_*_*
*Ten minutes later* (Yes, I'm lazy, so what?)
"Hello, I'd like to make a collect call please" Kurt said pleasantly "To the Xavier institute"
"[One moment please]"
"KURT?!?" Evan's voice cried down the line "Is that you???"
"Yes, now I don't have a lot of time. Magneto put me in this machine and I don't have any powers anymore" Kurt explained quickly
"Heck! Where are you? We'll come as soon as we can"
"Uhhh, I have no idea" Kurt said "Wait! I can see a sign over there. Cumbria."
There was a short silence
"Is that even a place?" Evan asked
"Wait!" Kurt cried noticing something on the wall of the booth "BT??? As in the BRITISH TELEPHONE COMPANY!?!"
"You're in ENGLAND????" Evan exclaimed "Okay Kurt, I've got the name of the place, just sit tight"
*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*
"They're on their way" Kurt said to Chrissa
"Kurt, I'm tired" Chrissa sighed
"That's okay, you have a rest, I'll stay awake" Kurt smiled at her.
He knew that they didn't have much time. Magneto would start looking for them the minute he knew they were gone. Kurt just had to pray that he didn't know yet.
Chrissa had curled up into a small ball and was sleeping peacefully. She had so much faith in him and the last thing Kurt wanted to do was let her down but unless the X-jet turned up soon they were as good as dead.
*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*
Kitty was sitting in the X-jet
"So he's okay?" She said in an over joyed tone
"He was when he called us, that doesn't mean a thing" Logan said gruffly "Magneto could still catch up to him"
"Especially if he doesn't have his powers" Jean sighed "How did magneto manage that anyway?"
"And why" Scott added "Taking away a mutants powers isn't magnetos style, he's got something planned"
Kitty looked worriedly out of the x-jet's windows. Their mode of transport would get them to the lake district in two hours but would that be soon enough? Kitty prayed so and tried not to kill herself with worry.
*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*
Kurt had moved himself and Chrissa into a stable in the hope of making things a little bit more difficult for magneto when he came looking for them.
A large brown mare seemed to have taken a shine to him and nuzzled the elf's face a few times before eating her hay.
Chrissa was still asleep and looked even more angelic than usual, she was laid out across Kurt's lap so that she wouldn't have to lay on the floor. Kurt pressed his back against the wall and sighed. A few days ago he'd had no idea that this was going to happen to him. He remembered the video he'd left for Kitty and winced at the pain she must have felt knowing that he was missing.
Where were they anyway? He knew that they had to travel across the Atlantics ocean but the suspense was killing him.
"Heya Princess" came a kindly, male voice; Kurt froze as it approached. He didn't want to think about how shocked the man would be if he saw an elf in his stable.
"I'll do it dad" Came a girls voice and she ran over to the horse. Kurt moved as far back as possible and all he could see was a bob of brown hair. The girl couldn't have been older than ten.
"Hey Princess, Dad says tha' we'll be able to take you ou' la'er but a' the mo i's swel'ering hot and in 'ere i's go' much more shade. Wanna' sugar lump?"
Kurt smiled at the accent. Like many rural Britain's this girl had the inability to pronounce T's in the middle of or at the end of words. (I am also inflicted with this sad disease 'Ohh arrh'!)
Princess accepted the sweet treat and whinneyd
"Le's hav a look a' your hay then" The girl giggled and opened the front of the stable, she turned and instantly saw Kurt and Chrissa
"Please don't scream!" Kurt hissed "I'm not going to hurt you!"
"Wow" The girl gasped "A real Cornish elf"
Kurt was dumbfounded for a moment and then shook his head "What?"
"Aren' you a Cornish elf? We come from Cornwall and I' was real nice ou' there too. I wan'ed to see some fairies or some elves 'fore I left but I di'n't see any. What are you doin' here anyway?"
"There are some people trying to catch me and my friend" Kurt explained quickly "Please don't tell anyone else we're here. I've got friends coming to help us but they won't be here for a few hours"
The girl thought this over
"You wan' sum food?" she asked "You looks 'ungry"
"Your parent won't notice?" Kurt asked
"Nah, I'll pretend I had a picnic with the other kids. I do tha' all the time"
"Thank you! We'll eat anything" Kurt sighed
"Do elves like white bread or brown bread better?" she asked "Brown!" and ran off
*_*_*_*_*_*
"I can't thank you enough" Kurt sighed "We were so hungry"
"I dun' mind" The girl (Katie) shrugged "I go' chores to do bu' I'll be back 'n a few minutes"
"Your chores take a few minutes?" Kurt asked
"No but Sam next door fancies me and he'll do 'em for me in a jiffy" Katie ran off quickly.
Chrissa had woken up and was eating from the basket Katie had brought out. They were all organic fruits and a few chocolate bars at the bottom.
Kurt was chewing on a Cadburys dairy milk bar and noted the extra 5% cocoa beans in the chocolate than there was in Hershey's. Even then it was a poor resemblance to the flavour in the Belgian chocolates he'd eaten in Germany.
"What's an elf Kurt?" Chrissa asked
"They're creatures that have pointed ears like me. There not actually real but lots of people believe in them" Kurt shrugged
"How can people believe in something that's not real?" Chrissa asked
"That's called faith, Chrissa and it can help lots of people through difficult times" Kurt sighed
*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*
Just to tell you all, I copied that girls accent from mine. It's depressing me how badly I talk. Why do you all think we have posh accents?? Damn those stupid British stereotypes you're practically force fed. American accents are posher than most of the English ones!!
*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*
