BlackRoseApocalyps: Sorry to hear that, I personally hate the flu with a vengeance and hope you feel better. The Netherlands, where exactly is that? Oh and I know how you feel the only way I see any Spider-Man show (especially the MTV version since I don't get MTV here) is use Kazaa.

Chargone: For the vampire I wanted to bring him in because I liked that character, plus someone said they liked the character so a made him a have a little bigger part.

Red Witch/Shadow-Spider: Glade you like, and here you go!

yae yang: LOL Please tell me you were joking about just figuring out why it's called Enter Daytripper, if not well I can understand I didn't know until I found about her character by accident.

ENTER DAYTRIPPER

CHAPTER 7: The Spider and Daytripper


The Professor had arranged for the Seftons to stay at the Institute as long as they needed. Margali thanked him, and rarely left her husband's side.

Amanda had been worried sick all day about him, Kurt did his best to try and comfort her, and she appreciated everything. They ended up on the couch that night talking away, they tried to steer clear of the resent events, and just talked.

Amada really didn't want to be alone, and there was no way Kurt would leave her side. They continued to talk about things, like their lives before they met each other and soon late at night Amanda who had wrapped herself around Kurt slowly went to sleep.

Kurt didn't notice she was asleep for a few minutes. He just smiled down on her, and decided to just watch her for a while.

When morning came Vincent was up bright and early as usual so he was leaving his room and was about to pass Scott's door when it opened. 'Huh, I guess Mr. Leader is getting up early for today' he thought to himself.

Of course when Jean walked out of his room in front of Scott with only a vary large T-shit on he understood why he was up early. 'Oh I can't pass this up.' He grinned as a plan formed.

"Morning." He stated, they both turned around fast, and Jean went as red as her hair, while Scott did the same.

"Uh, uh..." Scott stumbled, while Jean looked to embarrassed to do anything.

Vincent help up a hand. "Look your both 19 and going into collage, your both consenting adults and have been dating for I don't know how long, so it's really none of my business what you guys do."

They both gave a sigh of relief as he passed them and went on his way. Then he stopped when he passed them. "If it's anyone else's business however, well that's another story."

"You wouldn't." Scott said to him, his face going pale.

Vince looked back with a grin. "Well let's make a deal, I keep my mouth shut, and you two owe me one."

They both looked at each other, then they both said "Deal."

"Oh just out of curiosity how long has this been going on?"

"Not long a few weeks." Jean reluctantly said.

"Oh, well in case you forgotten I'm a morning person, so you might want to try Jean's room in the girl's section if you don't want to be caught by me again."

"Thought of that, but Logan prowls the girl's halls once a night." Scott said with a hint of annoyance.

Vincent nearly laughed but didn't want to wake anyone, so he just shook his head and went downstairs. He was about to enter the kitchen when he saw the top of a blue tail hanging over the couch.

'Damn did Kurt sleep here all night?' He thought to himself, when he walked over he did see Kurt but he also saw Amanda snuggling right against him. 'Is there anyone who didn't sleep alone tonight besides me and Rogue.' At least he hoped she did, then he got the thought of spending the night with her and quickly shook his head.

'Later Vincent, fantasize LATER.' He got another evil grin, he went back to his room at super speed and returned, with a camera he had. It was just one of those cheep automatic kind, but it would do.

'They just look so cute together.' Then suddenly the two of them were awoken by a flash.

Kurt sat straight up, and Amanda was in his lap when they both got up. They noticed that they were a few inches from each other's face and realized that they must have spent the night together.

There was another flash, and to their horror was Vincent with a huge smile on his face and a camera. "It's a Kodac moment." He said before disappearing in a blur.

"I zink I vill have to kill him." Kurt said.

Breakfast time was a little tense for Kurt, Amanda, Jean and Scott. They were all caught by Vincent had it wouldn't have been so bad if he didn't stop grinning the entire time.

Luckily Vincent had come back to Kurt and Amanda and told them he wouldn't say a word to the others, no strings attached, but they were still nervous, especially if the adults, or worse Amanda's parents found out.

They didn't DO anything but fall asleep, but they both had liked it, they felt comfortable and had slept soundly and comfortably. But they weren't stupid either, when Amanda's father woke up and if he heard of it, even though he was beginning to like Kurt, Kurt wouldn't want to be anywhere near him, if he did find out.

Rogue came in later, and sat beside Vincent and across from Amanda and Kurt. "Amanda, Ah'm sorry for what happened to your family."

She forced a small smile. "Thanks Rogue."

"It just ticks meh off that some jerks would do that." She said angrily.

"I think everyone is pissed off at that Rogue, but you should learn to control herself." Vincent said calmly.

"How the hell can ya be so calm and what do ya mean control myself?" She said angrily towards him, and sent her fist on to the top of the table, causing several cracks and breaks.

"That's why." Vincent said to her. "You have my strength now, so you need to learn control or you could really do some damage. Remember when Kitty helped you up after you fell in the hall from accidentally levitating? You're lucky you didn't crush every bone in her hand."

Rogue looked at the table and then at her hands. Even though she had regained to ability to touch, she still could kill with her hands.

Vincent placed a hand on her shoulder. "Believe me I know what your going through, and I can teach you to control this strength, plus one of they ways I deal with stress like this, when I feel the need to hit something."

Rogue looked at him. "What?"

"I got a few simulations in the Danger Room for this kind of thing, I mean it's the only place I've ever been able to let go, if I did anywhere else I would totally trash the place."

She grimaced slightly at the though of voluntarily going into the Danger Room herself, it just seemed so...wrong to actually WANT to go in there. "So that's why you lahke it so much."

"That and breaking stuff is a great stress release, plus it's kind of fun." He grinned.

She let out a sigh. "Fahne then let's go after ah finished."

"Don't worry you'll feel much better after it." He finished.

After breakfast Amanda checking in on her parents, her father was still out, but Hank said his vitals were better, her and Kurt wondered around for a bit.

"Hey Kurt do you think we could check and see what Rogue and Vincent are doing in the Danger Room?" she asked him.

"Vhy?" he asked.

"Well I'm really curious about the Danger Room, I mean I saw the way you fought in our house, I've never seen that side of you, you were like one of those heroes in these novels I read about."

Kurt would have blushed if it would show up in his fur. "Vell I don't really zink of mayself as a hero, I vas just helping you and your family."

She grabbed his arm and smiled at him. "Well you are to me."

Kurt was at a loss for words, he had been called many things in his short life hero wasn't one of them, though from her lips it didn't sound too bad.

They made their way to the control room of the Danger Room, they found Logan looking over Rogue and Vincent. He noticed them as soon as they came in. "Elf what are you and your girlfriend doing here?"

"I just wanted to watch." Amanda said. Even though Logan seemed like a nice guy she was a little intimidated by him.

He just grunted something and went back to watching over Vincent and Rogue in the Danger Room. Kurt and Amanda moved to the edge, Amanda gasped as she looked in on them.

She heard the stories of this room, mostly from Kurt, but seeing it in action did not do it justice. There were Vincent and Rogue fighting through humanoid robots and battle drones, and tearing them apart like they were made of paper.

She was transfixed on them. They both were in their uniforms which showed signs of a little damage, but they were both going none stop. Rogue was going through them with a vengeance, using a few martial art kicks and blows but mainly just ripping up anything that got in her way.

Amanda thought of the stories of the Valkyries, or of the amazons, when she looked at Rogue fighting.

Vincent however was different. He was seemed both in control and going loose. He used a lot more fancy yet deadly moves then Rogue, and all his moves seemed both elegant and powerful.

He would also use an occasional blast, ball, or these sharp looking energy things at the robots and even a destructive wave of energy, but mostly he kept using his strength and a little speed. She had never really seen him in action, but now knew why his codename was Mayhem.

She stood watching them admiring their abilities, then Logan cut in through the PA. "Alright you two that's enough. You destroyed all the drones we have and I still need some working weapons for tomorrows session."

She looked down and saw that both of them nodded. Vincent was breathing a little hard and sweating a little, while Rogue looked even more exhausted. Then some kind of robots came out and started to collect all the pieces.

"Mr. Logan what are those?" She asked him.

"Those are some maintenance drones Forge came up for us. They can repair the Danger Room and take anything away to a facility next to the Danger Room where all the pieces are either repaired, or recycled. It cuts the cost of building new equipment all the time."

After that Kurt and Amanda left she was thinking about how well those two fought and of Kurt and wished that she had their training, if she did she might have helped her parents more than she did. She didn't know if she could have prevented the fire, but she could have done more.

She was taken out of her thoughts as Jubilee came running up to her. "Amanda! Hank's been wanting to talk to you, your father just woke up!" She said happily.

Amanda didn't waste any words, she just disappeared in a flash of white light.

"Wow I think she's getting good at that." She said to Kurt, he nodded his head and then disappeared too. Leaving Jubilee to wave away the sulfur smoke. "Although I like her way better." She grumbled to herself.

In the infirmary Amanda reappeared and looked around quickly, then noticed she was facing the wall instead of the beads, and spun around to see her parents there. She ran over to her father and hugged him.

Kurt appeared a few seconds after her and stood back and watched with a smile on her face.

"Oh daddy I'm so glad your better." Amanda said to him. He smiled down at his daughter and hugged her back.

Peter had just gotten off the bus he used to get from New York to Bayville. He had found a secluded place to change. He put his normal clothes into a travel bag he brought with him. It also had the information he got from Connors' office and a few other things he found out.

He place the strap over his head so it wouldn't fall or lose it and started out towards Xavier's.

He had taken the time yesterday to look the place up, get the address. He stopped on one of the buildings and took out the map of Bayville he purchased from the bus station.

He checked were he was on the map and the place Xavier's place was located, he swung as far as he could, then he saw the place. It was huge. He thought about going in the front door, but what do you say.

High I was just in the neighborhood oh can you guys help me out? Yeah good one Peter.

Well Xavier did want to talk, but I don't think it would look too good if I just went in through the front, I mean with my reputation it wouldn't be good for them, and vise versa.

Then he saw the forest to the rear of the place. Well it's better than nothing.

Amanda and her parents had talked about what had happened she was glad that her father didn't blame her as well, but she also had to tell them a decision she had come to.

"Excuse me, Mr. McCoy, Kurt." She said to get their attention. "I need to talk to my parents alone for a minute."

They weren't sure what about, but they both complied. Then Amanda turned to her parents.

"Okay I need to say this, so please let me finish it." She said to them, when she say that they understood she took a deep breath and went on.

"I'm staying here, no I NEED to stay here, and before you can argue to point let me say I've been thinking about this all day."

"First off you say it wasn't my fault what happened, but the truth is it was in part, because they were there because of me. When you guys get a new home, if I go with you I'll only make you a target again, and I won't have that."

"Another reason is that with all the security here, I'm safer here than anywhere else. Plus I need to train here, I mean my powers are coming along I don't blast anything by accident a lot less, but I need more than that."

"I need to be able to defend myself, because we've all found out yesterday, me most of all just how dangerous this world is, especially for those of us that are...different."

They sat in silence, Amanda was prepared for the argument and it did come, but it wasn't as bad, mostly they were just trying to get her to change her mind, but in the end they saw she wouldn't budge.

After about an hour they finally gave up. "So you really want to do this?" Her mother asked.

"Yes I do, I need to do this." She said.

Her father gave a deep sigh and looked like he was in deep thought for a moment. "I guess we could try this out, I mean it's not like your moving into a new city or anything, but I still worry about you."

She smiled at her father. "I know and thanks, but one of the reasons I want to do this is so I can take care of myself and you don't have to worry about me."

"Yes well you'll always be my little girl no matter what." He said caringly. Her mother placed her good hand on her daughter's shoulders to show that she was giving Amanda her support as well.

Amanda was glad that she got them to agree. And she went off to tell the others and the Professor as well. She was also trying to figure out a code name for herself.

Ever since her powers came to her, she had been thinking about it. She had teleportation like Kurt, but his was dark and smoky, one of the reasons he was codenamed Nightcrawler.

Her teleportation was the opposite, like night and day. Maybe something like that. Nightcrawler, and Day...something. Then it hit her.

Her father loved the Beatles and they had this song that was one of his favorites, that he played a lot. Day Tripper.

It sounded kind of right to her, plus with her teleportation powers, that fit the 'tripper' part and the white light definitely went with the day.

So she decided to make that her codename.

Daytripper.

She was really beginning to like the sound of it, and couldn't wait to tell Kurt and the others, but first she still had to find the Professor, he was most likely in his study or with one of the students.

"Uh excuse me miss?" She heard someone say when she reached one of the hallways in the main level. She looked around to see who it was but saw no one.

"Up here."

She looked up and what, or more exactly WHO was up there and was a completely shocked to see who it was.

"Could you direct me to Professor Xavier?" He said.

Amanda couldn't believe this, up and the ceiling hanging upside down by his feet and hands, completely slapping all the laws of physics in the face, was none other than Spider-Man himself.

"Uh....you okay?" He nervously said cocking his head to the side.

Uh...uh...yeah." She quietly said. 'Nice one Amanda, you meet one of the most famous people in New York and that's what you do?' she thought to herself.

He leaped down in front of her, which startled her a moment. "So..."

"So...what?" she asked.

She wasn't sure but she thought that he cocked an eyebrow under the mask. "Professor Xavier?" He said.

Amanda snapped out of it. "Oh Right! Sorry, I was on my way to see him I can show I can take you there."

"Sounds good to me." He said happily. "Lead the way."

And she did, though in her head he still couldn't believe this day she was having, and it wasn't even noon yet.

She was beginning to wonder what else was going to happen to her that day.
