Yayayay!!! Back by popular demand.iiiit's TROUBLED TEENS!!! Okay, so maybe popular demand isn't the right term for it, but thanks to the reviews sent in by gothic-rogue13, meskup, and digifreaks, Troubled Teens is back on the main burner. Thanks!

Disclaimer: I do not own the X-Men series or any of the characters, saddly. The only thing I hold rights to is Dawn Morbid. She is my own creation. Don't take her.







Dawn woke up early that morning. Today she would be starting her first day at Bayville High. She wasn't all that nervous; she'd been to plenty of new schools before and had had a preceding reputation each time. This time, however, she had no doubt in her mind that the other students at the Institute had been spreading rumours about her sanity.

'Oh well.' Dawn thought, smiling inwardly. 'It'll only further our little prank.'



At school, it became evident that the others had indeed been talking about her, judging from the looks she was receiving from her peers. She was quick to discover the social standings, which were prett obvious to any teenager.

Scott was with the group of 'not-quite-popular, not-quite-dorky guys'.

Jean was with the 'preps/cheerleaders/jocks' squad. Evan was with the 'punks and skaters' group.

Kurt was an evident 'floater', moving from B sqaud to B squad.

Kitty was with the valley girls of course, and Rogue with the outcasts/rebels.

Yep, Bayville High was just like every other school Dawn had ever been at. Well, except for the fact that this school was overun with mutants.

Dawn noticed another group of guys that seemed to have a gang of their own. One of them, who was so obviously their leader, was wearing a worn leather vest, and cutt-off gloves. The others were dressed in equally shabby clothes.

Dawn couldn't help but stare at them. The tall one with the white hair wasn't half bad looking, but the leader was cuter. The other two members were certainly head-turners, but for entirely different reasons. The small one was crouched almost abnormally, and hopped about like a frog. His skin was a sickly pale green. The other was at least five times his size, and had a hideous mowhawk.

Just then, the tall one noticed her staring and sped over to her. Literally.

"What's your problem?" He taunted playfully. "Lost your straightjacket?"

By this time the others had worked their way over.

"You the new student?" asked the boy Dawn had dubbed as the leader. "The one everyone says is a psycho?"

"Yeah.That would be me." Dawn shrugged her shoulders and made as if to walk past hem, but the short one blocked her way.

"Wassamatter? Don't like us, yo?" he asked, sounding almost hurt. "We won't hurt or nuthin. We're real civilized an' everything. I'm Todd. An' this is Lance an' Fred an' Pietro. We're the Brotherhood."

"I'm Dawn Morbid." She flashed them a smile, and turned to Lance. "So you're Lance. Kitty boyfriend? At least that's what she calls you."

Lance blushed a deep red as his friends broke out into fits of laughter. Just then, the bell rang.

"I gotta go. It was nice talking to you guys." Dawn hurried away.

"She's not bad, for a psycho, y'know." Remarked Todd.

"Yeah, too bad she's one of the X-Geeks" Said Pietro as he watched her scurry away. "Anyway, she's not as big of a psycho as Tabby was."

There was a simultanious murmur of agreement as the Brotherhood walked away. None of them even noticed the person hiding in the shadows, scowelling at them as they sauntered to class.

Okay, I know that kinda sucked, but my muse has gone on Thanksgiving Holiday until further notice, so we'll just have to stick with that. Plus it was necissary to have Dawn meet the Brotherhood for the next part of my plan.

Please Read and Review.yadda yadda yadda.
