"What do you mean we're not going?" yelled Bobby angrily. Logan had run into them in the hall and told them to come along, but as they were on there way to pack some things when the professor had stopped them. Xavier shook his head. "This is too dangerous for you to come! We don't want you getting hurt." Rogue pointed to the other X-Men who were watching by the jet. "Kurt's going! I've been here a year longer than him, and Bobby's been here two years longer than me!" she whined. "It's not a matter of how many years you've been here," the professor said holding up his hands to quiet here, "we're looking for experience in dangerous situations."
"Oh, and I suppose everything I went through in my first year meant nothing in the 'experience' category?" she said heavily. The professor sighed. "You're too young…" he said massaging his temples. Rogue huffed loudly as Bobby grabbed her by the wrist and pulled her out of the room. Rogue saw Logan mouthing, "Sorry kid," as the professor approached the jet. "You know what?" Rogue yelled at Bobby, "This is EXACTLY the same thing they did last year that Jon called 'little kid stuff'!" Bobby sighed. "I know, I know, but I mean we're not going to pull a Pyro, are we? I mean, when he got sick of it and left Magneto took him." "But Pyro was a big headed bully!" Rogue shouted. Bobby shrugged in agreement but then tilted his head looking behind Rogue who was standing in front of him.
"Kitty?" he asked seeing Kitty stumbling over a bag. She looked up an expression of fear on her face. "Please don't tell! Please oh please don't tell! The professor would never let me. "No kidding, considering he didn't let us…" Rogue muttered. Kitty looked at her. "Well, that just might be a good thing." Bobby looked at her. "Wait, we can't-." "Oh yes we can!" interrupted Rogue. "We'll help you if you help us!" "We will?" Bobby asked timidly. "Shut up, Bobby," said Rogue grabbing him by the shirt and pulling him back into the landing room.
Kitty's head submerged from the floor and looked around. They were all in the jet, that's good. She pulled the rest of her body, along with Rogue and Bobby who were holding onto her wrists. "Okay, so Kite will just faze us through the jet and-." started Rogue, but Kitty interrupted. "Err, no Kitty won't. My powers, like, make electronic things go 'Boom'…" Rogue sighed. "Okay, then…" she looked around trying to think of a way to get them in the jet. "What about objects touching electronic things?" she asked. "Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's okay." She said trying to figure out what Rogue was planning, but Rogue didn't wait to tell her.
"Bobby, I need you to make a pillar of ice under us and raise us up to the window in the back. Bobby nodded and held out his hands. Within seconds a large pillar of ice was boosting them up to the window. "Kitty, do your thing." Kitty nodded and jumped in the window, no breaking a piece of glass. Bobby made a bridge over to the window where Kitty was holding out her hands in attempt to pull them through. Bobby went in first, and then Rogue jumped in after. "Okay," said Rogue looking at the uniforms, "Logan said our new uniforms came in a week ago… so Kitty, you can have one of my spares." She said opening the case and taking out three outfits, but just three seconds before Rogue had a chance to go into the far back to change the door opened.
Rogue froze and she could here Bobby wince and Kitty gasp. We've been caught! It's all over, they'll send us back… she thought angrily. But then she heard someone laugh. "I knew you wouldn't take no for an answer. That's what I like about you kid." Rogue only knew one person who called her "kid". She turned around. "Please don't tell the professor, Logan." she begged turning around to face him. Again, Logan laughed. "Nah, I won't tell. I was against you not going from the start… who's the girl?" he asked his attention falling to Kitty. "I'm Kitty Pryde, I helped Rogue and Bobby in." she said, smiling shyly. Logan nodded. "Just stay quiet and I'll warn ya if anyone tries to come back here. If I do, duck into the changing rooms. Hurry up and get into your uniform." Rogue smiled at him. "Thanks Logan…" she said walking into the changing room.
