Chapter One: Arrival of Kurt
Disclaimer: I don't own anything in this story except Mouse. At least, not in this chapter.
The premise of this story is "What if the Nightcrawler from Evolution accidentally teleported in to another X-men universe?"
I picked the X-men series that aired sometime in the '90's to be the one he landed in because it is my personal favorite.
Please review the story, but please don't flame me if you don't like it.
I never said you had to read it.
***********************************************************************
It had been a perfectly normal day for Kurt Wagner, otherwise known as Nightcrawler. He had eaten a rather large breakfast, followed by a day at Bayville High School. Everything seemed perfectly normal. Perhaps a little too normal for a mutant such as Kurt. As usual, he had used a holographic image projector to hide his fair cerulean skin from the school. The projector, in form of a watch also disguised his saffron eyes from view. Perhaps it was all the concealment that led to this.
Kurt Wagner was lost beyond his wildest dreams.
It wasn't just a "I-can't-find-5th-street" type of lost; it was much, much more complex than that.
What had started as a teleportation to the kitchen for dinner became the most ludicrous experience of his life.
He was in another dimension.

"Initiating probe now." A scientist commonly known as Mouse clacked on the control panel of her latest invention.
"PROBE ERROR: UNECXPECTED RESISTANCE." The machine chirped, bringing a frown to Mouse's lips.
"Explain error." She adjusted the dark goggles she wore to protect herself, brushing a strand of azure hair from them. Although she kept her hair tightly tied in two buns on each side of her head, strands of hair did tend to come loose now and again.
"UNIDENTIFIED BEING. PROBE UNABLE TO LAUNCH." The machine replied.
"Unidentified being?" She began to type frantically on the control panel.
"BEING IDENTIFIED. WAGNER, KURT. COMMONLY KNOWN AS NIGHTCRAWLER." The computer began to go in to a listing of background information on Nightcrawler as Mouse turned away from the machine to use another computer.
"But... Cerebro says that Nightcrawler is on the other side of the planet." Mouse was at a loss for once.
"RESISTANCE INDENTIFIED AS KURT WAGNER." The machine said again, causing a great swell of emotions in Mouse.
The first was horror. "Was he trying to teleport in to my lab? Has he discovered my plot?"
The second was pure joy, the joy known only to those who make new discoveries. "It's the Nightcrawler from another dimension!"
The third was confusion. "What will happen now?"
She really should have known better than to ask.
The machine began to beep in alarm.
"SYSTEM OVERLOAD. WARNING: SYSTEM OVERLOAD. SLEF-DESTRUCT INITIATED." The machine began to hum dreadfully as smoke began to pour from various places in it.
KABOOM!

When Mouse came to, she was in the infirmary. Beast was standing over a boy that Mouse didn't recognize. When he noticed that she was awake, he came over to her.
"Three explosions in one month, Mouse? Isn't that a tad excessive?" He asked in jocular manner.
"It's only the 2nd." Mouse said defensively, testing her limbs to be sure they moved before she sat up.
"Hm. I suppose it is." Beast said thoughtfully. "Nonetheless, Professor Xavier is not pleased with this particular explosion. You see, the shockwave from your lab was so tremendous that it damaged the hanger for the Blackbird."
"So send me a bill." She smiled cutely. Beast sighed.
"I know that you are officially a member of the X-men Mouse, but please, do try..." Beast was interrupted by the strange boy moaning.
"Where am I?" He asked, sitting up and rubbing his head.
"Please, do not attempt to move yet." Beast said in a calming tone, one he often used with patients.
"Doctor McCoy? What happened to you?" He asked, wide-eyed, staring at Beast.
"What?" Was the only reply Beast could give, along with a confused stare in return.
"Man, I'm starving! I'll be going to the kitchen now, unless you need me for something." He said quickly. He was answered only by gaping stares. "Great. Bye!" He teleported away.
The shock quickly wore off.
"After him, Beast! He's my experiment!" Mouse cried, running up to Beast and tugging on his arm.
"I believe we have a problem." He continued to simply stand there. A moment later, he shook his head, trying to clear the daze in it. "Retain him, you say? Perhaps that would be wise."
"I thought so." Mouse smiled again, practically dragging Beast down the hall with her.
After all, it would be greatly hazardous to the entire world if one of your experiments were to become loose in it. Beast thought as they trampled down the hall.
