Aaron: Man haven't heard from you in a while. As for who gets along
with who, you'll just have to see, and as for the love triangle I got
going, I knew I would have to deal with the Rouge/Remy thing sooner or
later.
Ldypebsaby: Well don't worry about Creed I will get to that. As for Paige/Jamie & Kitty/Piotr you'll just have to wait and see. As for Illyana, well things might go as you expected for her.
Witch-Uk: Nice to hear from you but I hope you've read the other stories first since this is the 6th in a series, cause if you didn't you'll lose out on a lot of backstory.
Supergirlhv: Well you'll have to see if Rogue and Wanda can get alone especially if her mind is on two guys.
The Uncanny R-Man: Unfortunately the Hellions might not make an appearance just yet, I haven't decided on that. A little later on yes I want to get all the new guys into the flow of things first before I add any more people, I got a lot as it is.
DemonRogue13: Thanks, it will only get better. (I hope)
Red Witch: Glad you do, and I hope you enjoy it.
BlackRoseApocalyps: Yay you're back! Or at least you got some spare time between exams.
fire inu: Yes, yes the hellions are going to cause trouble later on. (But not in this fic sorry)

CHAPTER 2: FIRST DAY TROUBLES
The next day things were getting back to normal as they ever get around the Institute. Vincent however had spent the last few hours waiting for Hank to come in and tell him he was fine.
It was times like this he hated the fact he usually only needed six hours of sleep. For the past few hours he tried to meditate but it only worked for about an hour. Finally to his relief Hank walked in, he must have just gotten up since all his fur was slightly ruffled.
He walked over to the hear monitor and looked through the date compiled through the night. "So what's the verdict?" Vincent said hopefully.
"Hmm, I don't like this right here. It seemed to have happened about two in the morning." Hank said looking at the results of his heart rate.
"Oh that." Vincent said quietly and his good mode had faded. "I...had a nightmare."
Hank looked at the data and from it, he knew it must have been a major one. "Well that explains that, and it seems Gale did great work you're heart is in perfect working order so you can leave." He noticed a strong breeze after that and the monitor had gone flat lined.
When he jerked his head to look at Vincent he was gone. He smiled to himself. "I guess I should have expected that."
Upstairs everyone was getting up. Well mostly. Wanda was actually sleeping quite until an annoying and loud buzzing sound woke her up. It took her a moment to remember where she was while looking at the unfamiliar room, and then it all came rushing back to her.
She looked over at the digital alarm clock which was the source of the noise. "Rogue, turn that damn thing off before I hex it!" She said to her roommate. She still couldn't believe it, back at the Brotherhood she had her own room and she liked it, even thought her old room was a dump compared to this it was still her room.
Wanda turned over putting a pillow on her head thinking it would block out some of the noise, until the buzzing was cut of by a smashing sound. "Ah damn it!" She heard Rogue yell out. When she looked over she saw Rogue glaring at what used to be her alarm, now it was a pile of crushed junk.
"Well I guess it's time to get up any way." Wanda mumbled she got dressed in the only clothing she still had from the Brotherhood place burning down. She sure as hell wasn't going to ask Rogue for any hand me downs, she had her pride.
She made it down there with Rogue not far behind, who was still angry about the clock thing. When she got down she made her way to the dinning room where the large table had plenty of food on it. It was also crowded too.
She grabbed what she could and took a seat. She looked around and it struck her as so different from her old life. She could see Kurt and Amanda sitting together eating playfully with each other. Tabitha and Sam were nearly as bad and Sam's little sister was giggling the entire time at them.
She could see Remy across the table and he seemed to be given Rogue certain looks. She tried her best to avoid them. Then she heard some clapping and a few cheers and she turned to see Vincent enter the room. He was surprised by the show of support and she could see he was a little embarrassed.
"So did Mr. McCoy give you a clean bill of health or did you bust out of the medical ward?" Gale said. She was joking but everyone could hear the threat at the end if he had left prematurely.
"Clean bill of health." He said and tapped his heart. "You do good work."
Rogue smiled at that and everyone noticed her relief. "Ah'm glad you're all right." She said to him. He bent down and kissed her on the cheek.
"I know, and I promise I'll try not to scare you like that again." He said silently to her, and she knew he meant it.
Wanda also noticed Remy raising an eyebrow at how close those two seemed. Wanda had known from Lance who was told from Kitty that those two had been dating for over two months now. She guessed this was the first he heard of it.
Vincent looked to Ororo. "Sorry I couldn't help out today." He said sheepishly.
Ororo smiled and waved it off. "It is alright besides Clarice had helped me this morning."
Blink looked up and beamed with some pride. "Yeah and I learn a lot from her, it was kind of fun, not as fun as gardening but it was nice." Ororo smiled who shared the sentiments with the younger girl. Even thought she was Blink's legal guardian she felt like over the past couple of weeks that they had formed almost a mother-daughter bond and she enjoyed it.
"Now that everyone is here I have a few things to say." Xavier said over the noise. It soon quieted down and everyone had their ears open to him. "With everyone here and who know how many more students we will get the adults and I have decided to expand the mansion."
There were a few groans from those that were there the last time that had happened. "You mean we got to put up with that again?" Ray said to him.
"Unfortunately yes, but for some of you after the preliminary work is done I felt it better if we finished the inside yourselves because with the current level of mistrust humans tend to have of us, it was the only way I could convince the local construction company to build the needed expansions."
Everyone was silent after that. "So does this mean we'll get our own rooms?" Bobby asked. "And if so how long will it take?"
Xavier smirked at his enthusiasm "That all depends if you want them, but you can if you do and we will still have room to spare, as for how long. The construction should be done at the end of the month just a week before the new school season."
"There are a few other details also." Xavier looked around the table. "X23, Illyana, Piotr and Wanda since you al will be attending Bayville high we need to teat you out for now to see if any of you need to have some tutoring before you go."
There were a few groans. Then Wanda spoke up. "Hey how come Remy doesn't have to do that?" She demanded.
"Remy is a little old then most high schoolers [AN he's 21 in the fic] so he will be going for a GED instead." Xavier said to her, he just smiled at her and Wanda glared at him. "Also you and the others need supplies such as clothing since you don't have any of your own."
Kitty and Jubilee shot up immediately. "You mean a shopping trip right?" Both girls said excitedly at once, while the others rolled their eyes at the display by the two major Mallrats of the Institute.
"Why do I need to?" X23 said. "I got my clothing, do I really need more then that?"
"Well you like only have one outfit, you totally need more then just that, I mean what if it gets ruined?" Kitty said to the young clone.
"Ah need ta go too and pick up a new clock there." Rogue told him.
"Why what happened to yours?" Jean asked her. Rogue looked a little embarrassed by it while Wanda let out a small snort of laughter.
Vincent saw this and had a guess. "You smashed the clock didn't you?"
Rogue with a surprised look on her face turned to him. "How did ya know that?"
Vincent blushes a little and scratches the back of his head slightly. "Well, I uh...kind of...well...I smashed at least eight different clocks...and blasted one."
There are a few chuckles at this revelation. "Blasted one?" Rogue asked.
"Ya, you see I thought if I placed it away from my bead I wouldn't smash it, but then one time I sort of shot an energy beam at it, that is after I hit the lamp next to it." He says still slightly embarrassed from the event. He sure had a hell of a time explaining that one to Father Michaels.
"Well after breakfast all those that NEED to go to the mall." Ororo said eyeing Kitty and Jubilee specifically. "Should meet me out front after breakfast."
"But we can help." Jubilee said. "I mean X23 has never gone shopping before, and I bet Illyana hasn't either."
"Yeah you could like use all the help you can get." Kitty chimed in. It took five minutes but the two of them actually managed to wear Ororo down, but they were there only to help, not to window shop for themselves.
TWO HOURS LATER
Several of the students were in the Rec. Room. Jamie and Paige were playing a video game while Amara and Tabitha were playing against Sam and Ray in pool. It was going well when Kitty and Jubilee walked in and each crashed down on a chair.
Normally a trip to the mall left those two happy for a few hours, this was something new and everyone took notice. "What happened to you two?" Ray said looking at them.
"Do you have ANY idea how impossible X23 was while shopping?" Jubilee stated wearily.
"That bad?" Amara asked.
"Let me put it to you this way, that girl really takes after Logan in every way." Kitty muttered. The others got a picture of Logan and when he had to chaperone the kids there, then they pictured X23 doing that.
"You poor, poor girls." Tabitha said seriously to them.
"At least Illyana liked it." Jubilee said. "Although Wanda only went to the same shops as Rogue does."
"At least Piotr wasn't bad either." Kitty said with a ghost of a smile on her face. "He was the perfect gentleman, and carried all the bags for us, plus he was like all embarrassed at that one point where he had to wait outside while he helped the girls get some...uh...undergarments."
Jubilee let out a laugh. "You should have seen his face, it went all pale then several shades of red, when he walked in with us and realized where we were going, he stormed out of there and said he would meet us outside."
"Yeah it was so like cute when he was looking like that." Kitty said with a laugh of her own.
The others shook their heads at it all and laughed themselves with the image of the big Russian boy and what he went through.
