Disclaimer: I don't own X-Men:Evolution! There, glad that's over with, I hate writing disclaimers, they make me realize how badly I want the rights to this. But as always, I own Ghost, The High School and it's students, the plot, and last but not least the whole fanfic!

A/N: Ok I left off at a very dull spot for the last chapter. But enough from me, now a word from my fans! Ok, they're probably not my "fans" but they reviewed, and I would like to say something in regards to those reviews. "Lockport? I am from Deerfield which is right near Northbrook(where Kitty and Lance are from). Lockport is around Joilet, right?"-Candary. Yes, yes it is, but keep in mind I don't live in Lockport, I don't need any stalkers, but you're free to pressure me into writing more of both my big fics, I believe that's Stacey Lofton's job, but she may need help because I have finals. "*taps fingers in Mr. burns' fashion* excellent... i like this story... cuz the evil football player/cheerleaders are just like the ones in my school...but what's going on with Rogue and Kitty? they are barely even in the fic so far... but i like the competition with melissa and jean... good stuff"-roguepheonix. Wow. I got a 'Mr. Burns excellent' which is awesome, because I'm the only one I know who does that, and usually scares others, but thanks! Next, I'm trying to make each chapter revolve mainly around a character, with Jamie and Ghost in the mix because Ghost is my own character, and Jamie is the one I LOVE, so Kitty's going to be the focus of this next chapter, as is a certain other, but that's enough of that, don't want to give away any valued info.

Chapter 4-It's not Illinois's Fault

"Oh, and mahne are?" a familiar goth said as she sat next to Scott.

"No, it's just that you don't need an inducer to cover it up." Scott said a bit surprised that she had interrupted his lecture.

"But Ah have ta wear gloves."

"Look, I think all of us have to keep our 'abilities' under wraps and try to control them." Jean broke in, trying to settle it before an argument broke out, she was stressed enough as it is.

(A little bit earlier-Kitty's Honors Geometry class)

"And then your homework for tonight is page 361 problems 1 through 36" The teacher announced to her class as she adjusted the glasses on the brim of her nose. "Any questions?" No one wanted to raise their hand, as usual, not wanting to make class any longer than it already was.

Kitty sighed, she missed Bayville, all her friends, her teachers, even the Brotherhood of Mutants. She stared at the clock wishing she could make it ring so she could go to lunch. Out of the corner of her eye she could have sworn she saw Lance Alvers. She looked out the door quickly to see if he was in the hallway, she didn't see anyone.

The sound of the bell scared her and brought her back to reality. "Must like, just be wishful thinking I guess," she thought to herself as she rushed out of the room and down the stairs to the cafeteria. She couldn't help thinking that he could be at the school, watching over her, making sure that she was safe. Kitty was in a dreamland thinking of all the reasons he'd be there for her, just hoping that it might be true.

(Present-Cafeteria)

"Hi guys, what's up?" Kitty said cheerfully shrugging off the dreamy thoughts as she sat down with her vegetarian salad. The others related the events of their day as they ate their lunches hungrily. Kitty tried her hardest to listen to their stories, but she kept thinking back to what she thought she saw. After lunch the next few hours dragged on, but eventually the end of school bell rang.

Kitty hurried outside to get a ride from one of the other X-Men. The ground shook slightly. It's Illinois fault line probably. She rushed out to Scott's car when she saw him rev it up.

(The Hotel De La Grande-Breakfast Area)

All of the X-Men again sat around a long table. Evan brought up the topic of the small earthquake. Kitty said that they were just on a fault line. "Kitty, Illinois doesn't have a fault line up here." Jean said correcting her. "Alvers is here." Ghost said solemnly. "What?" Scott said anxiously. "Yeah the brotherhood is here, I thought ya'll knew." "No. We didn't know that, why didn't you tell us?" Scott said a bit annoyed. "Because I thought you knew, at least Kitty, I think she saw Lance." "Well I thought I was just like daydreaming that's all." Kitty said surprised. "Oh, well they're at the school and in this hotel actually." Ghost said.

A/N: Ok, I think I'll stop here, if you didn't figure it out first I'm a Lancitty fan. Second, the title is about Kitty and Lance, because Illinois doesn't have a fault there. So please Read and Review I'd love to hear all your comments.
