A/N: Sorry this took so long so come out; I'll try to speed things up a bit. ^.^ I'm trying to get December 193 finished- I have BIG plans for that! Thanks to everyone who has reviewed, esp. demon lover!

"What is this place? It's some sort of a mansion."
A figure walked over to the gates and read the plaque to the right of the gates,
"'A school for gifted youngsters.' Well, why don't I have a little fun? I always loved kids." Laughed the shadow now entering the Xavier school.
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!
Ororo rushed down to the control room and quickly turned off the alarm. She scanned the perimeter and found a tall, dark form flying over the south gate. She contacted everyone of the situation and ran to the approximate location of the invader.

Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep.
Piccolo heard a sound coming from Wolverine and turned over in his bed.
"What is it Storm?"
"Logan, we have an intruder coming over the south gate."
"I'll be right there."
"Storm out."
"I'm going too."
Logan looked up from his communicator and almost laughed.
"You can't come. What do you know? You'll just be in the way bub."
Piccolo suppressed the urge to punch the man's lights out.
"You would be surprised what I know old man. I'm going. This might be connected to me. I recognize this power."
"Yeah sure whatever kid. You can come, but stay out of my way."
"Hmph."
Logan got up from his chair, smiling the whole way.
/I'll show him what I can do. I gotta make sure he doesn't get hurt though. I don't think he's fully recovered. /
Piccolo got up from his bed and almost fell when he tried to put his full weight on his legs. Logan ran over and grabbed him before he fell to the floor. At first neither of them knew what to do, or say. Piccolo finally got frustrated at being helped.
"I can take care of myself. I was just a little worn out from being in the bed, that's all."
Piccolo pushed Logan's arms away and started taking steps towards the door.
Logan almost laughed again.
/Well, he's persistent, I'll give 'em that. /
He walked out of the room and watched Piccolo wobble down the hallway.

When Piccolo and Wolverine made it out to the south gate what they saw shocked them.
Storm had gotten there first and was fighting off some guy with spiky hair down to his feet, and he had a tail! Cyclops and Jean were helping Storm. Even though this guy was big he wasn't really that strong. They were all out in the field around the mansion so there was plenty of fighting space.
Piccolo couldn't believe his eyes.
/Raditsu? No, it can't be. Goku and I killed him years ago. But that guy sure does look like him./
Cyclops and Jean ran to fight him, and the figure disappeared from in front of them and then reappeared behind them and kicked both at the same time, while horizontal, with his arms crossed.
Piccolo was now convinced it was Raditsu. Raditsu was the only person he had ever fought that used that move.
"Raditsu!" He yelled at the creature, and the fighting stopped, all eyes on Piccolo.
The figure had his back turned, so he couldn't see the Namek's face.
"How do you know that name?", in Japanese.
"Impossible!" in English.
"You can't believe what?" asked Kurt.
"How do you know that name?!" the figure repeated again, this time in English, clenching his fists.
Piccolo nearly sputtered, "How do you know English?" He asked this in Japanese.
"You learn a lot in Hell. Now how do you know that name! I demand to know." The figure turned around, his eyes grew, and his mouth went wide, "It's you."
"I know that name because I killed you once before." said Piccolo as he shifted weight from one leg to the other, arms crossed and grinning/ smirking. (~ I can never tell which one it is!~)
Everyone blinked rapidly and tried to digest the information. All the X-Men had made it out to the fight and that statement shocked even Professor Xavier.
"So nice to know you remembered me, green bean. I never forgot you, or Goku." Raditsu narrowed his eyes, and started walking over towards Piccolo and Wolverine.
"Just answer me this question Raditsu, how did you get here in the first place?" asked Piccolo slowly taking his normal fighting stance.
"Well, as you know, since you and my little brother put me there, I was in Hell." He shrugged at this as though it didn't matter to him, "Actually I met a lot of people that you helped get there: Nappa, Freeza, Andriods 18, 19, and 29, Cell and I even saw the mighty Prince Vegeta for little while. Yes, you've been busy haven't you Piccolo?"
The X-Men looked on in wonder and didn't what to do. They couldn't believe that Piccolo had helped kill all those people. Was he really a good guy?
"You still haven't answered my question."
"You haven't gotten any more patient have you? Well we were all there, plotting ways to get you Z fighters back for what you did to us when this huge bright light ripped a hole in the fabric of Hell, and all of us fell through it into THIS world. It was quite a wild ride. Yup, one minute I was enjoying myself in a nice hot afternoon, and the next I was here in front of this mansion." Raditsu moved to his fighting stance and snickered at the Namek. "You know, I've been training and I think I can get the best of you this time."
Piccolo chuckled, "You just keep thinking that. I'm definitely more powerful than you are, and I don't need one of your scouters to tell me that."
"Yes, that's you green bean, all talk, no action."
"I can defeat you even in my present state."
Wolverine felt his stomach go to knots at the thought of Piccolo fighting that huge brute. Piccolo was weaker that he thought he was, he could barely walk.
Wolverine whispered, "Piccolo, you can't, you're too weak. You're not ready to fight him yet. You'd get clobbered kid."
Piccolo whispered back, "You just watch, I'll mop the floor with this guy."
"Are you just going to stand around all day, or are we going to start?"
"No, I'm quite ready for this. Are you so eager to perish by my hand again?"
"You think to much of yourself, you'll be the one pleading for mercy." (~ Gomen, but this is all they do for half the show so I had to incorporate it into this fic. I mean, they're as bad as the Sailor Senshi's monologes-which is the main reason why I don't watch Salior Moon anymore. On with the Fic! ~)
Raditsu rushed Piccolo. He threw a flurry of punches and kicks, all of which Piccolo easily dodged. Piccolo saw an opening and punched Raditsu in the side, shattering ribs.
Raditsu doubled over and fell to the ground. All of this was done in the space of 5.2 seconds.
"No way. You can't be that fast." Raditz complained gripping his injured side.
Of course, none of the X-Men saw any of the fight. They saw flashes of light then Raditsu on the ground holding his side. Needless to say they were all in the background scratching their heads trying to figure what just happened.
"Now, to send you back to Hell." Piccolo stood over Raditsu and raised a hand to deliver the final blow.
"Stop." Professor X hovered over to Piccolo and touched his arm. "X-Men do not kill."
Piccolo studied Professor Xavier's face trying to read his motives, and slowly lowered his hand. "You're one lucky monkey, Raditsu."
Raditsu coughed and climbed to his knees.
"Rogue, Wolverine, get this man to the infirmary." ordered Professor X as he and Piccolo slowly turned their backs on the defeated warrior and started to walk away.
Rogue and Wolverine started walking over to Raditsu and it all happened in less than a split second.
Raditsu raised his hand and fired a ki blast at Professor X.
Piccolo saw the ball and got in it's path.
The ball struck Piccolo in the shoulder.
"Shimatta! I was going to help you!" yelled Piccolo, "Well I'm not an X-Man, and so I'll see you in Hell." Piccolo raised his uninjured arm and fired the wave that sent Raditsu back to where he came from.
Piccolo was, just as Wolverine feared, far weaker than he thought and fell to his knees clutching his left shoulder.
Wolverine saw the whole thing and was amazed, to say the least, as was everyone else. He quickly shook of the amazement and helped Piccolo up. "You ok, kid?"
"Yeah, I'll be fine."
"Thank you. I wish you hadn't had killed him, but I am eternally grateful for your intrusion. If you need anything please ask." Professor X turned around and made his way back to the mansion, "Another thing, Wolverine."
"Yeah." huffed Wolverine as he put Piccolo's arm around his neck and helped him to his feet.
"Since you and Piccolo have gotten to be such good friends, after Beast dresses his shoulder he will have to bunk with you when he is here. There is another bunk available, in your room and you have a couch that opens to another bed. Besides we already put his cape and turban there. That isn't a problem, is it?"
Wolverine knew that this was the Professor's way of paying him back. He knew that the Professor must have known about how he felt about the Namek, and he would have to remind himself to thank the Professor and tell him to stop digging around in his head, "It's no problem."

Well? What do you think? Review! Review! It took me a while to come to the decision to let Pic go ahead and kill Raditsu. I was going to let him live and then come back later for revenge, and then I realized that i have a lot more villians to incorporate before I'm finished with this lil' thing. Anyway, I think things will start heating up in the next few chapters, so stick around.
