Kurt awoke the next morning to the shrill sound of his alarm. He sat up rubbing his eyes, and looked over to the clock. It was only 6AM. He groaned to himself as literally rolled out of bed and onto the floor.
He stood in front of his closet groggily. He grabbed some clothes and went into the bathroom. The day before had really taken a toll on him. He turned to face the mirror. "Maybe I should tone down the 'porting for today..." He said aloud to his refection.
After getting dressed, Kurt felt the all too familiar yet new stomach pains as his body called out for food.
Upon getting downstairs, he was greeted by his mother who was busy making breakfast. She looked up from her work when she heard her son come in and smiled. "Good morning Kurt." She said cheerfully, "Did you seep well?"
"I suppose so, but I feel really tired for some reason still...I think my powers take a lot out of me." He said with a yawn
Mrs. Wagner just frowned, "Maybe you should give them a rest for a while, I don't want my boy to be falling asleep in school! Here, you'll need a big breakfast to fuel your body for the day." She shoveled some eggs into his plate, as Kurt reached for some toast and bacon. "I think it would be a good idea for you to pack a lunch now too, I don't want you to fill up on the junk food I hear you young kids buy now a days. This way you can have a healthy lunch. Plus with your new found appetite, I don't think I can afford giving you lunch money any more!" Mrs. Wagner chucked at her own joke warmheartedly.
"But mother! I'll die if I can't get a nice big burger for lunch, with a side of fries, and a delicious soda..." Kurt began to lick his lips. "Oh now I got my self even more hungry."
"What all the fuss about?" Mr. Wagner asked, sitting down at the table.
"Mother's making me take a lunch for to school! She said she's going to fill it with all healthy snacks and meals." Kurt said with a frown.
"Well I think your mothers right, that nice girl Jean said that your powers have given you an accelerated metabolism. So you'll need the food for energy." His father explained, and Mrs. Wagner smiled in approval. But as soon as she turned around, he whispered, "Don't worry son, I'll spot you some money before I drop you off for school."
Kurt Grinned, "Thanks father."

Mystique huffed as she stomped through the halls. She was looking for any student to give her a reason to take her frustration out on. So far that morning she had given out 3 detentions, one to a girl who was chewing gum, another to a boy who had a baseball hat on, and another to another guy who said a swear
She wanted to confront her son so badly, but she knew any attempt to talk to him would put him in danger. Let alone revealing who she really was. Anger and hate welled up inside her toward Magneto.
A student suddenly ran passed her, attempting to get to class on time, but wasn't watching where he was going, and ran right into Mystique, almost knocking her to her feet.
"You clumsy buffoon!" She screamed in rage, "Watch where you're going!" She quickly turned around to see who it was. She was shocked to see it was in fact.Kurt.
He was now on his hands and kneed scrambling to pick up his books, apologizing and he quickly stood up.
"I'm SO sorry Miss, I should have been looking vere I vas going. You see I vas late for my first class and I vas running because I didn't want to be late! So zen you see-" "Just...get to class." She ordered sternly rubbing her eyes. Kurt decided to do what she said, to avoid any more trouble.
Kurt made a mental note to go as fast as he could to English without really running, not wanting to anger the principal further.
Finally he got to the English room. Checking his watch, he found he was only a few minutes late and hurried inside. He was met with some disapproving looks from the teacher, but she hadn't really started the class yet so Kurt figured he was in the clear. He walked to the back of the classroom and took his regular seat next to Rouge.
Kurt set his bag down next to his desk and pulled out his books. He looked around the class wondering what they had in store for the day. To put it bluntly, anything the teacher could have them do would seem incredibly dull compared to the events of the day before.
The teacher unfortunately for Kurt (not tot mention the rest of the class) decided to lecture them on the different literary styles of different people. He tried his hardest not to let his mind wander, but it was hard.
After the lecture was finally over, she told them to use the rest of the class time to work on their projects. Eager to talk to his friend Rogue again, Kurt quickly scooted his desk over.
"So how far have you gotten with ze book?" Kurt asked attempting to strike up a conversation. In response Rogue just looked up and yawned sleepily. "Ah'm finished." She replied simply, pulling her binder from her backpack.
"Oh..." Kurt said with a laugh. "I'm only about half way through it. My English is still a little shaky so it's kind of hard to get through fast." He continued idly flipping through the book. "At ze rate I'm reading this...ve're not going to have much time to work on ze project."
"Well, don't worry about that. Ah can just fill ya in as we go along." She smiled, something that Rogue rarely did.
"Zat sounds good to me." Kurt said running his fingers through his hair. "So ven shall we get together to work on ze project?"
"Ah don't think today would be good, Ah have too much to do back at the institute, but how about tomorrow?"
"Sounds great!" He informed her, now very eager to show off his newfound friend to his parents.

Mystique sat in her room, the day was now long over, and the brotherhood boys were out of the house. She cherished her time alone, even someone as fierce as herself, needed alone time. Just some time to think.
Often when Mystique had something on her mind, she would call her old friend, Irene, or more commonly known as destiny. This time was no exception, she walked quickly across the room, phone in hand and dialed her number.
The phone began ringing, and Mystique prayed she would be home. Suddenly she heard a voice on the other end.
"Hello?" It was Irene.
"Destiny, its me...I have something I need to ask of you. Its important." She tried to hide the fear and concern in her voice.
"Raven? What is it you need, is this about Rogue?" Irene quickly asked, sounding edgy.
"No...This is about my son, Kurt."
There was a long pause, no one knowing what to say exactly.
"I-Irene, he's back." She said simply, "And I fear he is in danger of falling victim to Eric again. Now I know he said that he would leave him alone, but I've come to find that he is weak with promises. He cannot be trusted." She twirled the phone cord in her fingers. "Destiny, I just don't know what to do."
"Raven...I know you're having a lot go on in your life right now, but worrying about your son isn't something that should be top priority at the time. Remember, we still have Rogue to worry about now that she's joined with the X-men." Irene let out a sigh.
"I know Irene, I know. But Kurt's my son, and I guess...I can't help but worry about him. And you can't tell me you wouldn't do the same for Rogue."
Irene sat in silence for a moment before speaking again. "As of now...Kurt is in no real danger, but Raven...I...I see troubled times for you ahead. Both of you."
"What do you mean!? What's going to happen to my son?" Mystique suddenly snapped, almost dropping the phone from her hand.
"I can't know for sure, but I do know this, something unexpected is going to happen."
"What is it? What is it what you see Irene? I need to know!" Mystique suddenly stood up.
"All I'm saying Mystique, is you...and your son. Better watch your backs."
