Woo hoo! The sixth chapter! I sure have been on a writing spree lately.
My fingers are all cramped up. Anyways, since I can't think one anything
else to say, on with the story!!
Disclaimer: -A brunette walks out.- She doesn't own anything but Denise. Although she would like to own a certain fuzzy blue dude. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Kurt teleported into the kitchen and grabbed a bowl out of the cabinet. He grabbed the Cocoa Puffs and poured some into his bowl. He quickly grabbed the milk out of the fridge. After pouring some on his cereal, he handed it to Evan. Scott and Jean walked in and stopped dead in their tracks.
"Uh, what's the occasion?" Both boys turned to give Scott a quizzical look. "You're a little early."
"Dee has my skateboard, man. I need to get it back first thing."
"I offered to be Dee's tour guide. Show her to her classes and everything."
Scott's eyes widened behind his shades. "I almost forgot! We gotta go pick her up, and I forgot to get her address!"
He was about to rush out of the room, but everyone else decided to come in at that moment. Professor Xavier wheeled in and smiled. He held a sheet of paper out to Scott.
"I figured Denies forgot to mention where she lived, so I took the liberty of finding out. Here is her address."
"Thanks Professor," Scott said, taking the piece of paper.
"Scott!" Jean exclaimed after the Professor left. "How could you offer her a ride?!"
"Oh come on. She's not that bad, Jean. Besides, Kurt, Kitty, and Evan like her."
Jean just glared as she sat down. In a few minutes, Kurt and Evan were sitting in the back of Scott's car. Kitty was going to ride with Jean, who had just got a brand new Taurus, so that Denise would have a place to sit. Scott took off as soon as Rogue got in the front. They pulled up at Denise's house. Scott honked and a few minutes later, Denise ran outside, followed by her mother. She sighed when she reached the car, handing Evan his skateboard.
"Guys, this is my mom. Mom, this is Scott, Rogue, Evan, and Kurt. Can I go now?"
Her mother smiled. "My name's Michelle," She said, holding her hand out for everyone to shake it. Scott, Evan, and Rogue did with no problem. Denise noticed it was Kurt's turn. Before her mother could do anything, she hopped in between Kurt and Evan.
"Sorry, Mom, but we gotta run. Shake Kurt's hand later."
As Scott drove off, her mother waved. Kurt let out a relieved sigh and was about to thank her when she held up her hands.
"Don't worry about it Fuzzy. She'd flip if she knew what I could do." She noticed Rogue was rather quiet, but she kept glancing behind Scott, where Evan sat. She leaned forward. "Whatcha lookin' at?"
Rogue turned to glare at her before turnin' back around, but a small smile tugged at her lips. Denise shrugged and leaned back. Her book bag was down by her feet. The rest of the ride was remotely quiet. When they arrived at school, Scott parked beside a familiar beat up jeep.
"When did the Brotherhood get permission to come back?" Scott asked no one in particular.
"Well, my dad found out about them bein' expelled, so he got them back in. Please just try and get along with them."
Scott thought about this for a minute and sighed, nodding his head. "Okay, we'll try."
"Hey Daniels! You're no longer the fastest in the school. If you ever were, that is," Pietro said a bit cockily as he sped over to them.
"Shush 'Tro. We're gonna try to get along, got it?"
"And what if I don't want to try?"
He realized he'd made a mistake when Denise's eyes changed colors and the ground beneath his feet began to grow quite warm.
"Alright! I'll try!"
She grinned and her eyes returned to normal and the ground cooled down. "Good."
She turned to look at the rest of the Brotherhood members. She noticed that Adolf wasn't there. She frowned when she remembered that she had forgotten to mention him. Lance must've read her expression.
"It's okay, Dee. The Professor said he was going to arrange it when he called this mornin'."
She sighed. "Okay." She saw Wanda standing in the back of the group. "Hey Wanda, how's it goin'?"
Wanda looked over at Denise and glared. She soon dropped the glare when she realized Denise wasn't fazed by it. "Fine."
Denise smiled. She turned her attention to the school when the bell rang. She sighed. Her first day at Bayville. She hoped it went well.
"Do you need help findin' classes Dee?" Lance asked.
"Naw, I recruited a guide last night," she replied, hiking a thumb towards Kurt. "Thanks though. You'd better go. Don't want to be late on your first day back."
Lance and the others waved as they headed for their classes. Pietro waited until he saw a blonde girl enter the school. He grinned and ran after her. Scott and Rogue waved before heading their own ways. Denise turned towards Kurt and Evan.
"Who's gonna be my escort inside?" she asked, smiling widely.
Kurt and Evan just shrugged. Denise sighed and looped her arms through both of theirs, walking in between them. They began towards the school. When they got inside, everyone turned to looked at them.
"There's the girl that blew me off, man," Evan said, pointing to a short red-head.
Denise smirked as she giggled slighty. Evan and Kurt looked at her before apparently catching on. They smiled at each other.
"You know, Dee. I think you'll like it here."
"Well, thanks to you two, I'm sure I will. By the way, Evan, who was that gorgeous girl I saw you chattin' with yesterday?"
"Oh, it was no one," he replied, faking embarrassment.
"I don't zink it vas no one," Kurt said, watching as the girl looked towards the trio.
"Well, she did ask me out on a date," Evan said, grinning.
"You go boy! That's my bleach blonde!" Denise exclaimed, patting Evan on the back.
As they walked away, the girl looked at Evan regretfully. Evan's class came up, so they dropped him off and headed for the office. Denise needed to pick up her schedule and locker. She'd get her books during her classes. When they entered the office, Principal Kelly glared at Kurt.
"I'm here to get my schedule."
He turned to Denise, handing her a sheet of paper. "I would suggest against hanging out with that thing, Miss Saylors. It could harm you in more ways than one."
"And why's that?" she asked, tilting her head to the right.
"He's a mutie. An abomination in the eyes of the Lord!"
"He looks completely normal to me."
"They all look normal, but they aren't."
She smirked. She knew he would say that. "Than how do we know you yourself aren't one?"
"That's preposterous!"
"Is it? You could be afraid of what they'll do to you if you are. You could hide your true identity behind the façade that you hate mutants, but in truth, be one yourself. You're just afraid they'll destroy you. Isn't that right, Principal Barbie?"
"It's Kelly! And that is not the case! Now get to class!"
She waved as she looped her arm through Kurt's once more and walked out. Kurt couldn't help but laugh once they were out.
"Zat vas priceless! Especially ze end!" he exclaimed after he'd halted his laughing fit.
"Glad ya liked it. Now, do you have any of these classes?" she asked, showing him her schedule.
"Ja! In fact, ve have all but two classes togezer."
"Great! Do I know anyone in the classes we don't share?"
Kurt smiled. "Ja. Evan's in one and Rogue's in one.." They made it to first period just before the tardy bell rang. The teacher asked Kurt to take his seat before quieting the class.
"Everyone, I would like you to welcome Denise Saylors to Bayville. She moved here all the way from Los Angeles, California. Denise, why don't you sit in the empty desk beside Kurt seeing as you already know him."
Denise smiled and nodded as she made her way towards her newly assigned desk. As she passed a brown headed boy, he pretended to sneeze while saying freak. She acted as if she hadn't heard him. She sat down and took a spiral out of her bag. She caught him glaring and glared right back, her eyes turning colors before settling back to their original color. He turned away quickly and Denise giggled slightly.
"Dee, don't use your powers in school. You'll get expelled," he whispered.
"Don't worry, Fuzzy. I was just making a point. Besides, he can't prove that my eyes changed colors," she whispered back.
The first few classes went by rather fast and when lunch rolled around, Denise found herself in quite a dilemma. The Brotherhood and the X- Men sat on opposites sides of the lunch room. She looked between each group as she held the lunch her mother had made for her the night before. Finally, Scott smiled at Denise before walking over to the Brotherhood table.
"Hey, you guys. Since this is Denise's first day, can we sit at the same table for once? Just one time, then she can alternate."
Lance was about to tell Scott off, but he caught the confused look on Denise's face. He sighed, "Fine. But this is the only time Summers. And don't think I've forgivin' you for what you did."
"Fair's fair," Scott replied before walking back to his table.
The Brotherhood members got up and walked over to a table near the X- Men's. They slid it over, joining the two. Denise smiled gratefully and sat down between Lance and Evan. Beside Evan sat Kurt, Rogue, and Scott. Jena had gone off to sit with someone else. Beside Lance sat, Todd, Wanda, Fred, and Pietro.
"Thanks you guys. I'll work something out, I promise."
"Why don't you alternate?" Lance asked.
Denise's smile brightly. "That's a great idea. How'd you come up with it?"
"I didn't." he muttered. "Summers did."
Denise was about to say something when a blonde haired girl walked up and sat down beside Pietro. "Hey guys, who's the new girl?"
"I'm Denise, but everyone calls me Dee."
"Tabitha," the blonde replied, shaking Denise's outstretched hand. "So, who's new girlfriend is she? She can't be Richter Scale's because she looks too much like him. Little sister, Lance?"
"Cousin. And she's no one's girlfriend," Lance growled.
"Woo hoo!! Then we can go PAR-TAH!!"
"Tabby! What happened to your job?"
"Chill out, Pie Pie. I'm off tonight."
Pietro pouted. He wanted to spend tonight with Tabitha alone. Now he might have to hang out with her and half of Bayville.
"I can't tonight. I have to practice."
"Like, practice what, Dee?" Kitty asked.
"Control. I'ma head over to the abandon warehouse at the edge of town."
"You want me to go? Help ya along?"
Denise smiled at her cousin. "Sure, why not. Now let's eat!"
Everyone watched as she pulled a small, lidded bowl out of her lunch bag. When she opened it, it held a small personal pizza. It was covered in pepperoni and.
"Shrimp?! Who in the world eats shrimp on their pizza?!" Pietro exclaimed as everyone watched Denise take a bit. She looked at Pietro quizzically. "I guess that answers my question."
After swallowing her first bite, Denise looked at Pietro once more. "What? You've never tried somethin' different?"
"Not anything that different."
Denise shrugged and kept eating. Everyone started eating their own lunches after a few more minutes. About halfway through lunch, Denise felt as though her mind was being probed. She knew the Professor would never do that, so she had to find out if anyone else was a telepath.
"So, what's everyone's powers? I know Kurt can teleport, Kitty can walk through solid things, and Pietro is really fast, but what about everyone else?"
"Well, I shoot optic blasts from my eyes, Evan can shoot spikes from his body, which is why he drinks plenty of milk. Rogue can borrow people's powers, memories, and if your human, your life force. And Jena over there is telekinetic and telepathic."
"I create earthquakes, Fred's unmovable, his weight is part of his mutation, Todd's a Toad, just about, except he can't breathe under water, Wanda hexes things and she can immobilize other mutant powers, and Tabitha creates cherry bombs."
She nodded. So it was Jean that was probing her mind. She quickly set up mental defenses, something she'd learned from friend. She thought she heard someone hit a table, but she wasn't sure. She was about to ask why Jean wasn't sitting with them when the bell rang.
"Well, I guess I'll seen you later! Everyone except Rogue, that is."
Everyone nodded and waved as she headed towards her next class with Rogue. They stopped by their lockers and still made it on time. Denise sat two seats behind Rogue, but that didn't stop her from talking. They passed notes back and forth all through class. The teacher didn't seem to notice.
As the last bell rang, Denise jumped out of her chair and bolted out of the school. When she got outside, she noticed some guys were picking on Todd. One was blonde and looked like a jock. Her eyes narrowed. She hated jocks. She walked over to them, her head held high.
"Hey! Leave him alone!"
The blonde turned around. "Oh, look Darren. The little girl thinks she can make us stop hurting the Toad."
"Oh! I'm so scared, Duncan. Maybe we should run!" he exclaimed mockingly.
Denise's temper had been rising all this time. These guys were acting really sexist, and that's one thing you don't do. She'd finally had enough, so she drew her fist back and punched him square in the nose. He cried out as his nose broke and quickly clutched his face in his hands. Denise helped Todd up and he hopped over to where he knew Lance's jeep should be.
"Lance!" he cried as he saw the rest of the Brotherhood leaning against the jeep. Kitty, Kurt, and Rogue were there as well.
"What took you so long? And where's Denise?"
"Duncan and his friends were beating me up when Denise found us. I think she's gonna try to fight them, yo!"
Lance's eyes widened. "Show me!" He followed Todd as the younger boy showed him where the fight was being held. They got there in time the see two of Duncan's friends holding Denise while Duncan got ready to lay into her.
"Matthews, leave her alone!" Lance called as soon as they were in earshot. Duncan smirked and drew his fist back. He knew he could get one punch in before they reached him. At least, that's what he thought. Before he could touch Denise, she disappeared in a cloud of orange dust, like Pietro and Todd had when they had first met Adolf. She reappeared beside Lance and the others, who had stopped abruptly when Denise vanished. Adolf stepped into view.
"I believe he asked you to leave her alone. I suggest you do what you are told."
"Vho's zat?" Kurt whispered to Denise.
"The new Brotherhood member. Adolf. He can teleport things," Denise replied quietly.
"Oh."
"What are you goin' to do about it?" Duncan asked, smirking. Adolf raised his hand and pointed it towards Duncan.
"Adolf, don't. Just let me handle this," Lance said, popping his knuckles. He walked over to Duncan and knocked him out before anyone could react. Duncan's friends ran off when they saw that they were outnumbered.
"Hey, thanks man!" Denise said, waving toward Adolf. He merely nodded, turning to walk away. "Where ya goin'? And where ya been?"
"Back to the house. That's where I've been all day. I was training."
She just shrugged as they watched him walk away. Lance walked back over to the group.
"What were you thinkin', Denise? They could of hurt you really bad! Don't do that again, okay?!"
Denise glared at her cousin. "I can handle myself, Lance! I'm not little anymore!" She pushed past him and stormed off. He just looked around and sighed. No one said anything. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ That was the sixth chapter. Did it suck? Did I rush things? Talk to me, man. I need to know if this story sucks or not. Anyways, review response time! Sorry I didn't get to this part last chapter.
To all my reviewers: You guys are the best. -Wipes away a tear.- Thanks for reviewing!
Doctor What - He's got Tabby in the bag. My brother decided Wanda was a good pairing for his OC, so yeah. Congrats!
Im4everagt - Here's an update for ya! Thanks for saying my story was good and interesting. It might take a few chapters before I add the next OC, but they will all be in here soon! I couldn't have Denise going back to school without Lance there for her to terrorize, so I got her daddy to pull a few strings. I don't have writer's block and hopefully I won't get it. On this story, that is. On 'Secrets Revealed' I have terrible writer's block. I should update soon, don't know how soon though.
Satan's Wittle Hellper - Thanks for saying my story was nice. I type it up in Microsoft works before I post it and everything. I hope that helps, if not, I'm terribly sorry I couldn't.

I need to know if this story sucks or not. Anyways, review response time! Sorry I didn't get to this part last chapter.
To all my reviewers: You guys are the best. -Wipes away a tear.- Thanks for reviewing!
Doctor What - He's got Tabby in the bag. My brother decided Wanda was a good pairing for his OC, so yeah. Congrats!
Im4everagt - Here's an update for ya! Thanks for saying my story was good and interesting. It might take a few chapters before I add the next OC, but they will all be in here soon! I couldn't have Denise going back to school without Lance there for her to terrorize, so I got her daddy to pull a few strings. I don't have writer's block and hopefully I won't get it. On this story, that is. On 'Secrets Revealed' I have terrible writer's block. I should update soon, don't know how soon though.
Satan's Wittle Hellper - Thanks for saying my story was nice. I type it up in Microsoft works before I post it and everything. I hope that helps, if not, I'm terribly sorry I couldn't.
