Kitty was sitting on the step as Logan slept, waiting for Magneto to come and help her move him. She looked up when the doorbell rang and stood up to go answer it. "He's asleep so...he won't be going anywhere." Kitty said to herself as she went down the stairs to get the door.
Unknown to Kitty, as she reached the door Kurt teleported onto the steps with a soft *BAMF*. He laughed to himself and stared at Logan for a few minutes, poking the sleeping Canuck. "Heeeey...you wakey?" The boy put a blue finger to his chin in thought, then put his hand on Logan's shoulder and 'ported from the stairs.
Kitty opened the door to find Gambit sitting on the step, rocking back and forth. She furrowed her brows, then decided on calling the Professor. She didn't feel like using her radio, so she just tried contacting him telepathically. *-Professor?-*
*-Yes Kitty.-* he replied kindly.
*-Um...Gambit uh..he's on the doorstep.*- she just watched the Cajun rock back and forth silently, not even sure if he acknowledged her presence.
*-Oh yes, Remy LeBeau, I forgot he was coming today. Take him inside, I've set up a room for him on the east wing.-*
Kitty nodded to herself. *-Alright, but um..what's uh...what's his condition?-*
It took a few seconds for Xavier to respond. *-Seperation anxiety to a very high degree, that's why it took so long to get him moved here. He also thinks he's a child. Just be very kind with him so he can get used to someone.-*
Kitty sighed to herself, "This may be dificult." she mumbled, then broke her connection with Xavier and approached Remy slowly.

Magneto was about to meet Kitty at the stairs when he heard something that sounded like crying in the bathroom. He sighed and cautiously stepped to the door, knocking lightly. "Hello?"
"Go away!" the voice from the bathroom yelled back.
Erik sighed. "Come on Jean, I know it's you." There was no answer in return. "I'm coming in." He walked right in, yanking the bathroom door open by the doorknob, using his control over metal.
Jean sat on the floor, huddled infront of the sink with her arms wrapped around her knees.
Erik sighed and looked to the shiny metal razors on the floor beside the teen's feet. He raised them into the air, then crushed them into a little metal sphere and tossed it in the trash. "And I'm sure you were not going to kill yourself Jean dear." he said with a hint of sarcasm.
Jean glared at him and stood up. "It just figures that someone would show up and stop me!"
Erik rolled his eyes and pointed to the door, watching as Jean marched out with her head bowed.
"I know, I know, 'go to your room now.' " she said, mimicking Magneto's deep, authorative voice.

Ororo was checking the mansion's lower levels when she heard two voices down the hall.
"We should eat his brain! mwahahahaha!"
"Spin you little monkey, spiiiiiiiin!!!!"
The weather Goddess sighed, quickening her pace as she turned the corner. She found Todd and Kurt, spinning a sleeping Logan around in a wheeling desk chair that he was strapped to with duct tape. "What on Earth are you boys doing?!"
Todd turned to Ororo, his eyes wide. "Ahhhhh!!! We busted yo!"
Kurt just smiled innocently as if nothing was wrong. He waved to Ororo and leapt to the back of the chair, spinning it with a flick of his tail. The boy grinned again, then he and Logan were gone with a signature *BAMF*, the only thing left in their place among the smoke and scent of brimstone.
Ororo tapped her foot with her hands on her hips, watching Toad intently as he looked about to bolt. "Don't even think about it Toad."
The boy wavered a smile, then yelped and hopped along down the hall. "I ain't goin' back yo! You'll never take me alive! mwahahahahaha!!!"
Lightning sparked around Storm, her eyes turning an almost glowing white. Thunder boomed from outside, shaking the entire mansion. "Get back here." she said firmly.
Toad stopped dead in his tracks, turning around with his hands in the air like he was about to be arrested. "Ok, ok, jus' don't do the zappy thing!"
Ororo took the boy's hand as he approached her tentatively, and she began leading him to the elevator.
