Chapter 2

Noises

I stayed in the Danger Room for all morning. When I finally got out, the clock said it was about fifteen till five. I was all bruised and cut up, so much that it hurt to move and breath. Somehow I managed to get to the locker room and start the shower, there was no way in hell that I was going up to my room after that. I went back to my locker and grabbed my shirt and pants, along with a towel. After that, I striped down and went to the showerhead that I turned on.

I was in there for about ten minutes before someone came into the locker room. They came right into the shower room and went to another showerhead on the opposite side of the room, then left again. When he came back in and went to the shower, I was just about done. I turned off the shower, grabbed my towel, and went to the locker room.

I dried off and cleaned up my wounds on my legs, and then I put on my pants, socks, and shoes. I started patching up my cuts on my front, when the guy came in from the shower and went to his locker to change. When I was done with my front, I went to try and get my back. "Hey kid, you may be able to reach back there, but I don't think you can see what the hell your doing." Asked the man.

"Ya, well, I do what I can, Logan." I said back to him while still trying to bet my back.

Logan wasn't that big, probably about 5'5" or 5'6", no bigger than that. He was really muscular; at least for a man his size and age. The only problem was, that nobody knew his true age. All I know is that he is 80 plus years old. But he still looks like he is in his upper thirties, or lower forties. His mutant power enables him to live a long time while hardly even showing it on his body.

After awhile, I had to try and get the cuts on my middle of my back. "Hey, you know what? I don't do this often but, how 'bout I help ya with your back wounds?" he asked.

"I don't mean to sound desperate, but could you, please?" I asked.

He didn't answer me; he just came right over, grabbed the dressings out of my hands and started working on them. When he was done, I said my thanks and got up. But that didn't last long, I sat right back down. Something in my sides were killing me, making it hard to breath. Logan must have noticed because he was right behind me, "What's wrong, kid?"

"I…can't…stand…up." I said, in between gasps, "My…chest…hurts.. and I…can't…breath."

"Let me take a look at it, kid."

He came over to my front. He bent over to get a better look, "Ya, it looks like you bruised up a couple ribs. Let me know if this hurts." He reached out before I could stop him. He touched right at my left side; as soon as he touched it my hand went down then out to his face before I could stop myself. Logan got knocked off his feet and went backwards into the lockers. He looked like he was trying to move his jaw and arm but couldn't. After a couple minutes, he could at least move his jaw. "Damn kid, that was one powerful swing. You broke my jaw and my damn arm. It's a good thing that my adimantium skeleton keeps the bones in the same place, as they should be."

He got up and looked at his arm, it was as limp as a noodle. "Well, I guess that's two more things were going to have to wrap up."

I grabbed the bandages and wrapped up his arm first, then turned to myself. I started to wrap the bandage all around my chest and waist. I put on a couple layers before I cut it off and clipped it to stay. When I was done, I grabbed my shirt and put it on. I turned around and saw that Logan was gone. I shrugged my shoulders and grabbed the rest off my stuff and left.

I went back up to my room and dropped off the crap on the bed. Then I went back downstairs to the kitchen. I made a couple of eggs and a few strips of bacon, and then went into the dinning room. There, I sat down and started to eat. A few seconds after I started, Logan came walking in with his own plate of eggs and bacon. He sat down across from me and we ate in silence. When we were done, we sat there and relaxed for a bit.

"How's your arm?" I asked after a while.

"Oh, it's healed. But I've got to hand it to you, not that many people can catch me off guard, and break two bones in me. Where did you learn to move that…"

He stopped short, when he noticed my face and the sound upstairs. The kids were starting to get up. "Oh crap." I said.

I grabbed my plate and made my way to the kitchen. I was washing my plate when Logan walked in behind me. "Hey, I know you somehow heard it too, I don't know how you did, especially before me, but you did. Anyways how did you learn to move that fast?"

"I don't know," I said as I went on to dry my plate. "I just went on instinct, I really didn't think I was moving that fast."

"You were, I couldn't even see you when you shot out. All I knew was that I had a sharp pain in my arm then I couldn't talk and I was laying against the lockers."

I was putting away my stuff when he finished talking, "I don't know what to tell you. But I need to get out of here before the nesciences start to come downstairs."

I started to walk to the front door, when Logan called out to me, "You know, you better not do anything that could hurt you or anybody else. If you do, it will be my head."

"So you state of mind rests in my hands. I'll keep that in mind when I'm enjoying a sweet kill."

"Hey, kid…" then he stopped, noticing the smile on my face, "Why you little, well just be careful."

"Don't worry, I will." With that I left and started walking down the front lawn onto the road.

I was walking on the side street to the main road, when I started to hear some weird noises. There were four in total. One was a loud, slow beating; the second was a steady beat, light and rhythmic. The third one was a beat for every five or ten of the steady beats; the last was a really weird one. It was very, very fast beats, then just stop and start back up again after a while.

I had no clue what the noises were. All I knew was that they were getting louder and only one thing happened when things got louder; they got closer. So I did the only thing I could, I turned the other way and found another way back to where I needed to get without running into the four owners of the sound.

After I got what I needed, coffee, I started heading to school. It didn't take me all that long; it never did from the café. When I got there I noticed that I was there was nobody there, well there was a few but it seemed that there was nobody. I stood by the steps until I saw Scott's red corvette came into the parking lot. I got up and started walking towards them after they parked and looked like they were not getting out of the car.

As I was getting closer, I started hearing those sounds again. I stopped and looked around but couldn't place it. After they went away, I started walking to the car again. I got to the right back side of the car, then started to shake the car. I knew it probably wouldn't work, especially with Jean in the car. But as soon as the rocking started, everyone jumped, and I mean everybody.

BAMF

"Jeez, what the…" Scott yelled

"Who the…" Jean screamed

"Like, what happened?" Kitty asked from behind me, which she and Kurt were just in the car.

"Ja, what was that all about, Alorin?" Kurt asked, poking me in the shoulder.

"I don't know, I just wanted to scare everybody, but I never would've guessed that I'd scare all of you. That was funny Kurt, your tail lashed out to grab Kitty as soon as I started." I said, trying to look innocent.

"Well, I was scared. Nobody has ever snuck up on me before without me knowing." Kurt laughed.

"Ya, I didn't even sense your mind. You must have improved you mind walls?" Jean stated, not meaning it to be a question, while scratching her head.

"Nope, I haven't practiced it at all. I guess I've just that good with stealth." I said laughing still.

"Ja, you are getting good at it. Just don't try and do it again. Okay?" Kurt asked, looking at me with an oddball look.

That was it; that sent me over. I burst out laughing so hard I couldn't breath. Just the look on his face after all that and what he said, it was priceless. "What? What did I do?" Kurt asked, looking around at the others.

"Your face was…so serious. When your…usually…the one that…is being…out-of-hand." I said in between laughs.

"Well…" Kurt started.

"Wait, you do have a point. He's got you there Kurt." Scott said.

"Shut up 'fearless leader'." Kurt said, still trying to sound serious, "But, on the other hand, I know he's right."

"You know the bells going to ring pretty soon, so I'm going to get going." I said.

I said my 'goodbye's and 'see you later's. Then went off up the steps and into the school. I grabbed my stuff and made my way to my first period class to start the day. But right before I got there I heard the noises again. I ducked into the classroom before I could be seen by what ever it was that was making the sounds. God, I hope I don't have to run into the things that make those sounds.
