Shout out's: Nightcrawler03- I liked your old name a little bit better, but both still have our favorite blue elf's name so it's all good. Darn, I forgot to mention that there would be more Star Wars movies...hmm..I'll have to get that in there.

Rogue151- Don't worry, Rogue is coming up soon! I think I'm going to have ~Kitty, Kitty, and Rogue go to the mall...hehehe...

Georgia Peach- Thank you!

Sci-fan- I don't think I'm going to do that, but I am going to get ~Kitty to do to their school. Thanks for the ideas.

Auramistealia- I know, I have the shortest chapters ever. I'm sorry! And this one is even shorter then the last one!

hnh- thanks for going outside of what you normally read for this story! And you liked the Danger room part? Good, I was real worried it didn't come out right.

bant- you like the German conversations? :) I like them too, and there will be more!

Chapter 9: Far Out

In the Professor's office Forge was telling Xavier and Ororo about his newest invention, and all the technology used to make it. Ororo's eyes looked like they had glazed over, but she nodded her head every once in awhile to show a polite interest. The Professor was also nodding periodically, but Ororo suspected he had tuned Forge out as soon as he had realized that the invention was nothing he was, or every will be, interested in.

So when ~Kurt, ~Kitty, and Logan finally arrived, Ororo was immensely relieved.

"Forge," Xavier interrupted the technological rumblings, "This is ~Kurt Wagner and ~Katherine Pryde from the other dimension."

Forge smiled at them and said "Far out." Then turning to Logan, "Hi Logan, miss me?"

Logan grunted something, and leaned against the wall, his trade mark stance during any meeting.

"Professor, we've just realized that we're also from the past, 1982." ~Kitty said as she seated herself in one of the expensive chairs.

"Dude, you didn't notice this when you first arrived?" Forge asked.

"Ve veren't exactly looking out for it." ~Kurt said.

"Forge, here, is the someone I thought could help you return to your universe. He spent about thirty years in a different dimension himself."

~Kitty looked Forge over. He had hair down to his shoulders and had a goatee. He looked sixteen or seventeen. "Did time stop there, or something?" she asked.

"Yeah, you see I was working on one of my experiments and it somehow trapped me in this other dimension I named 'Middleverse'. I could see people in our verse, but they couldn't see me. Then Kurt found my lab at the high school and stumbled into Middleverse himself. The X-Men figured out what happened and used my experiment to bring us both back."

"That experiment, could it send us back to our dimension?" ~Kurt asked.

"I wouldn't try zapping you guys with it and just hoping it got you to the right place. I'd have to know where to direct it. Did you bring anything electronic with you?" Forge asked.

~Kurt lifted his arm to show his image inducer.

"Alright! Can I see it?"

~Kurt took of the watch and placed it into Forges out stretched hand.

"You don't mind if I fiddle with it, do you? I think this will help me with directing my experiment."

"As long as I get it back in vorking condition."

"Don't worry, it's safe with me."

"Forge would you like to work on it in the lab, here?" Xavier asked.

"That would be great. I think I brought everything I'll need." he said, as he stood up and lifted a book bag up from the ground. It was bulging with tools and pieces of equipment.

"Hey, would you guys like to hear about my newest invention?" Forge asked ~Kurt and ~Kitty.

Since Forge had his back to Ororo, she felt no hesitation about warning them. She waved her hands frantically while mouthing 'No!'.

~Kurt took the hint and answered Forge. "I'm not very good vith electronics," (which was slightly a lie) "I can fix the X-Jet, but that's about it, I think I'd just get lost."

~Kitty, however, was very interested. As she and Forge walked out the door heading to the lab, Ororo shook her head. "I tried to warn her."

"Don't vorry. She's very good vith computers and other technological things. Do you think he'll really be able to help us get home?" ~Kurt asked the Professor.

"He is your best bet. If he can't, I don't know who can."

~~~READ THIS ANNOUNCEMENT!~~~

My school starts tomorrow. (dum dum dum) I won't be able to update as fast as I have been. Maybe every weekend I'll be able to. Or I'm exaggerating and I'll be able to continue updating the way I have been. I'm not sure yet. I'm just warning everyone. I will NOT abandon this story, unless unforseen events such as my death, or the computer blows up etc. etc. etc. happens. So other then if those said events happen I will try my best to finish the story. I appreciate all the support and the ideas I have received and I will try to live up to all your expectations. I love you guys!
