Chapter 8
Beep Beep Beep Beep...
"Wha-- huh?"
I jumped out of bed startled by the noise. The alarm clocked continued, and I finally realized that was what it was. I gave it a little whap, and sent it into silence.
"6:30? Gimme a break!" I moaned.
While bedridden I woke up at around 10:00- 11:30... And now I had to wake much earlier... The nights memories flooded back into my mind...
"Is there anything we can do to help?" Jean asked
"No I'm afriad this will rely completely on Kitty." The Professor said.
A few moments later Storm announced dinner was prepared in the dining room and herded us there. Dinner held light conversation, I basically kept to myself staring down into my bowl of soup. I wasn't sure what to feel. If I was Kitty, the REAL Kitty, I would probably be in shock, like, totally freaked out, worried. But I couldn't really be shocked by such a trivial thing, I had much bigger things to worry about, just being here for instance. Never having the powers to begin with kind of played a factor, I couldn't really miss something I never had could I? But some how I felt a part of me was missing. Hidden. It was a strange feeling. Plus, having the power to phase might make it easier to be here. Gods know that my fight with Mystique would have went a WHOLE lot better with them. I still wouldn't have been able to beat her, but at least I would have come out without the cuts and bruises. Cuts and bruises? Understatement of the century. Thank god they have such great medical care here at the institute. I was able to heal in three days what might have taken three weeks. Being able to move was a blessing, because so far I have spent most of the time sitting in bed.
"Kitty are you okay?"
"Hmm?" I asked
Kurt was staring at me intensely, like he'd been that way for a while.
"Are you okay?" He repeated, his tail was twitching.
'He's worried about me...' I thought
"Yes, I'm fine..." I replied, I shied away from his stare. When I saw him and I melted, when he looked at me I boiled.
"Alright, but..." He smiled, "I'm here for you."
I then noticed Scott was watching us followed by Jean. I blushed realizing everyone at the table heard us, so I quickly ate my food and got up. Before I reached the kitchen I heard the Professor say,
"Kitty, Tomorrow you will have healed enough to attend school."
School? I thought as I washed my plate. Ugh, I didn't want to go there. On top of that Kitty was a freshmen. I had just become an upper class man this year! I leaned over the sink, I would have 3 more years of high school left. Wait did that mean I have a future here? More questions popped in my head... Would I have to go to college here? Would I die here? I felt myself hyperventilating, I had tried to suppress thoughts of getting home, but now I was freaking out over the possibility of never returning. I braced the counter,
'It's okay you're fine stop freaking yourself out.' I thought
It worked. In a way I should say I was lucky. Most would go insane realizing they were stuck in a TV show. I left the Kitchen, and padded up the stairs, but felt a hand on my shoulder. Kurt? No, there were most definitely five fingers on this hand.
"Kitty?" Jean asked
I turned to face the redhead.
"Yah Jean?" I questioned.
"I know everyone going to ask if you okay because of what you're going through, but I just want to say if you ever need someone to talk to, I'm here. I know we haven't be friends very long, but you're kind of like the little sister I never had." She smiled gently, and left me with my thoughts as she ascended the stairs. I felt guiltly for having her be my least favorite X men. She was the second person tonite to tell me that they were there for me... That night I slept soundly, for once feeling safe.
"Kitty are you awake?" Storm inquired through my door.
"Yes Storm!" I replied, what was I going to wear? First I needed to take a shower... I exited the room clad in pajamas, heading for the bathroom. Once in the hallway I saw Kurt and Scott were there, sitting next to it's door.
"Morning Kitty!" Kurt greeted, waving his three digits.
"What's going on?" I asked, wondering why they were standing there.
"Jean's in there." Scott said as, if that explained everything.
I with a small 'oh' I reentered my room. Fine then I will just pick out some clothes. I rummaged though my drawers seeking some pants and a shirt. I found a black pair of pants and a red tang top that I thought would do nicely. So I put them on and brushed my hair a little. I tied back a ponytail and then grabbed a pair of sandals. I wondered how I was going to get to school, then realized something else... I didn't know where ANY of Kitty's classes were. After a moment I decided I would have to go to the office a get one printed.
I went downstairs noting that Kurt and Scott still sat outside of the bathroom, but now they were pounding on the door yelling about how they would be late.
'How long did it take for that girl to brush her hair?' I laughed to myself.
I found the kitchen was empty save Logan in the corner, holding a newspaper.
"Hey half-pint." He said without looking up. I opened my mouth to correct him on name, but he cut me off with, "You better hurry you only got fifteen minutes before you need to go." A glance at the clock told me that it was 7:15. Damn their school starts early! I made breakfast simple, making some toast and took it on the go munching it while I ran outside. Where was the garage? My question was answered when I heard the sound of a garage door opening. Scott, Jean, and Kurt sat in Scott car, as he pulled it around.
"Hop in Kitty." Scott said, Kurt in the back seat began complaining how he would starve because he had no food. Apparently they finally got Jean out but not without sacrificing breakfast.
We arrived 15 minutes later, I managed to kind of duck out saying I had some work I needed to do.
"If I was the office where would I be?" I wondered aloud. I wandered down the hallway, finally recognizing the front office.
"Hello? Anyone there?" I called, drumming my fingers on the desk, you'd think with a school this big would have a big faculty...
"Yes what is it?" I heard someone snap. Someone familiar. I felt a harsh reality hit me as the owner of the voice came over to the desk I stood in front of. The principal of this school was Darkholme. Mystique.
