Chapter 1: Sunrise
Kurt Wagner sat on his balcony staring out at the sunrise. It was a beautiful sight and one that he tried to get up for every morning, just as he tried to get back in the evening for every sunset. Perhaps being so fascinated by the sun would have seemed odd to anyone who knew the boy's codename, Nightcrawler, but Kurt was a gentle soul who tried to find beauty in anything he came across. Of course Kurt was an expert when it came to trying to find beauty beyond what one could see. He sighed and turned away from the view and walked back into his room. He caught the smell of bacon frying downstairs and smiled to himself. He was hungry but not really in the mood to talk to anyone. He concentrated for a moment and 'ported out of his room.
Logan was the only one up and doing things at this time of morning. He often got up this early to eat breakfast alone, as he preferred. He sipped his coffee as he waited for his bacon to fry. Suddenly, he heard a dull thud at the front door. Mumbling something about visitors at this hour, he left the kitchen. As soon as he had gone, Kurt ported into the room, grabbed a plate and the frying pan and left with a muffled bamf.
Logan walked back into the kitchen, clearly annoyed that no one was at the door, and was shocked to find his breakfast gone. He sniffed the air and mixed in with the smells of breakfast, he caught a whiff of sulphur. Shaking his head, he sat down at the table and began to read the newspaper. "Damn Elf."
Kitty woke a little earlier than normal and her room mate, Rogue, was still asleep. She looked out the window at the sunrise and her thoughts turned to Kurt. He seemed to be becoming more withdrawn lately and his usually successful attempts to cover up his true feelings with good humor and a positive attitude were becoming, well, less successful. You could see the pain in his eyes, hear the hurt in his voice. She could only imagine what it had been like for Kurt growing up looking the way he did or always having to hide behind a hologram. Perhaps this was why she could never really talk to him about his feelings. She had always been practically perfect, never having to hide. Perhaps the best friend that Kurt could really talk to was Scott. Scott knew what it was like to hide, in his case behind glasses. Of course it was not hiding to the same extent as Kurt but the connection was there between them. Perhaps that was why they got on so well, almost like brothers.
She smiled to herself and walked from the window, phasing through the door so she would not wake her room mate. She walked down the hall and phased through another door.
