Sakura: Hey look! Up in the sky! It's a bird, it's a plane! No! It's
an update!!! Wow, that's amazing!
"Okay, this is you guy's room. Come on Kelly, your room is the last stop." Jean and Kelly walk off... well, Jean walked, Kelly short of bounced... Stella and Kaitlyn watched them leave, then got settled. (BTW, the room is the same as everyone else's)
"Well, just in case you forgot, my name is Stella." Stella held out her hand, which Kaitlyn tentatively took.
"Kaitlyn."
"Nice to meet you. It's kind of weird that we have similar powers, isn't it?"
"Hmm? Yes, very weird." Kaitlyn said quietly.
"Well, I'm done packing, so I guess I'll go explore." (wow, you people do this a lot Gets hit with toaster I'll be quiet now... .) Stella left to see what she could see.
Kaitlyn smiled slightly at her randomness, but soon went back to unpacking. She set up her laptop, and check her email. 'I got something from Liz...' She thought to herself. She opened the message:
Dear Kaity, (I don't know if you would be called this or not, so...)
Hi sis! Did you move into that new school yet? Did you meet any boys??? Things are the same here... I wish Mom and Dad would get over the whole 'mutants are evil' thing... Darn, I hate them... I got a bad grade on a math test the other day, and they went ballistic! I swear, as soon as I'm old enough, I'm coming to live with you.
Hey, I've been thinking... if you're a mutant, maybe I'll become one too! That would be soooooooooo cool, then I could come stay with you at this Institute... I really miss you Kaity...
Love always, Liz
Kaitlyn wiped a stray tear from her eye. She really missed her sister; Elizabeth was the only one left in her family who didn't hate her for what she was. Kaitlyn started thinking back to that fateful day...
Flashback (Kaitlyn POV)
"Sh-she's a freak!"
"No, she's a... mutant!"
"Get out, get out!" My 'mother' yelled, and pointed to the door, as if I didn't know where it was.
"Fine! Don't expect me to ever come back!" I walked out the door, slamming it as I left. I can't believe them! After all I've done! I got good grades in school, cleaned my room, and always babysat for free! Then they just kick me out! Sure, I accidentally burned down the kitchen! It's not like I meant to! Hurmph... they'll be sorry...
"Kaitlyn!" I turned to see my little sister Elizabeth running toward me at full speed.
"What? Do you want to yell at me too?"
"No. How could you even think that?" She asked... then I saw the tears in her eyes.
"I'm sorry Liz... I guess I'm just taking my anger out on you... please don't cry..."
"I can't help it Kaitlyn... I don't want you to go!"
"Liz, I'm sorry, but I can't stay here."
"Then... then, I'll come with you!" She suddenly seemed hopeful. It almost killed me to have to crush it.
"Please, don't make this harder for me... you have to stay here. Things in my life are going to be hectic for awhile; it's no place for you to grow up."
"Oh Kaity! I'm going to miss you!" She launched herself at me. I wrapped my arms around her, and held her tight.
"I'm going to miss you too, Liz."
"Promise to write me?"
"I'll email you everyday. Goo-"
"No, don't say that... I don't want to say that..."
"Then I'll just say, until we meet again." She gave me a watery smile.
"That sounds good... until we meet again..." I gave her one more hug, then walked away. When I looked back, she was still standing there. I raised my hand to wave, which she returned. Then I left completely.

Kaitlyn wrote a reply and then logged off. She then grabbed her headphones, and listened to music until dinner.
Meanwhile...
Stella was walking around the mansion. She peeked into a couple of rooms, finding some bedrooms and such. Then she came to one door she couldn't open... which ticked her off. She backed off, then kicked the door open. "EEEEYYYAAHHHH!!!"
"What the-"A very started Bobby exclaimed. He was... in the shower? Uh oh...
"Oops... sorry 'bout that... I hate locked doors..."
"SO YOU ALWAYS BARGE IN ON PEOPLE IN THE BATHROOM???"
"Well, my parents learned to leave a sign on the door..."
"WOULD YOU GET OUT OF HERE!!!!"
"Oh, yeah, sure! See ya!" Stella turned and left, closing the door as best she could after kicking it in. 'Hmm... wonder what I should do now... I guess I'll go practice with my sword'(I don't know what that thing is called, the sword used in fencing, so I'm just callin it a sword) She headed outside with her fencing sword. She started to swing it gracefully, and jabbed and parried and all that stuff. (gosh that stunk... oh well, forgive me!) Soon she was in her own little world. As she turned around, she heard the clank of metal on metal. Snapping out of her stupor, she saw the face of an angry Wolverine, who had just managed to block the sword with his claws.
"Watch where your swinging that thing, would ya?" He growled.
"Oh, sorry, I was in my own little world there."
"So I saw." He replied, retracting his claws. "Suppers ready, and go tell your room mate." She threw over his shoulder as he walked away.
"Oh, thanks!" Stella called after him. She returned the sword to her room, and told Kaitlyn it was time for dinner.
"Okay, this is you guy's room. Come on Kelly, your room is the last stop." Jean and Kelly walk off... well, Jean walked, Kelly short of bounced... Stella and Kaitlyn watched them leave, then got settled. (BTW, the room is the same as everyone else's)
