Disclaimer: I do not own any of the characters of X-Men Evolution, they belong to Marvel and Kids WB; this story is making me no money.

This fic takes place after Ascension in the period that would have been Season 5, so Piotr, Warren, Remy all those guys are X-Men now and so is Forge. Magneto is still teaching with Xavier at the school at this point. This takes place several months later.

DAYS OF INFAMY

It was a normal day at the Institute, when four of the X-Men had come home from a long day at school. Kurt's car pulled into the garage and out of it poured Kitty, Bobby, Piotr and of course Kurt, wearing his image inducer.

"Well this is going to be a lot of fun" Kitty sighed as she carried her books. "Doing this report all weekend is such a drag."

"Not to mention its on World War II, and Mr. Weinberg is always talking about how important it is to him so you know that means that the report is going to have to be extra good" Bobby added.

"Remind me again why I go back to school Robert" Piotr asked.

"Because you wanted to finish your education silly" Kitty reminded him.

"Besides that having you around keeps the bigots at bay" Bobby smirked. "They aren't giving any of us trouble with the giant Russian at our side."

"Anyway that I could be of service" Piotr nodded as they headed up the walkway.

Kitty noticed Kurt lagging behind. "Kurt hurry up, and why so quiet" she asked.

"Oh sorry mein friends it's just that, never mind" Kurt muttered and continued to walk.

"Oh come on Blue if you can't talk to us who can you talk to" Bobby asked. "Just spill trust me you'll feel better" he said as he patted him on the back.

"Vell it's just that the whole World War II subject makes me uncomfortable and vell" he paused. "Nein I'm sorry I just rather not talk" he said and teleported away.

"Well that was strange" Bobby scratched his head. "Kurt's never acts like that" he said as Piotr shook his head, noting his agreement.

"Well guys think about it, considering how Kurt is and the fact that he's German it's understandable he doesn't like the whole period. Even I have to admit what went on back then gives me the chills, as it should you Bobby."

Bobby put his hands up in defense. "Hey come on no need to give me the Jewish heritage lecture Kit," he said. "You know I don't like thinking about it, heck my grandmother almost didn't make it of one of those places."

"I also can sympathize with Kurt" Piotr spoke up. "What happened to my people in that war was horrible, waves after waves of men slaughtered" he shook his head.

"Well like then maybe we shouldn't talk about anymore" Kitty spoke up. "Besides we should really go find Kurt," she said and both boys agreed.

Kurt had teleported himself down into one of the many metal corridors of the Xavier mansion sub-basement. He felt bad about leaving his friends but he just needed some time to clear his thoughts, otherwise he'd never be able to get through this report.

He walked down the hallway when suddenly he felt a yank. "Vhat" he exclaimed when he saw it was Forge pulling him into his laboratory. "Oh Forge vhat's up" Kurt asked as he looked around.

"You got to check out my latest invention" Forge said with great excitement in his voice. He pulled Kurt over to large machine with a doorway that was glowing with electrical charges. "Can you guess what it is?"

"A door vay of some kind" Kurt asked then froze. "Vait a minute Forge, this device doesn't go to that dimension I teleport to does it. Cause last time you wanted to show me an invention ve had lava creatures storming the school dance" he frowned.

"No way man" Forge assured him. "I'm so done obsessing over parallel dimensions and all that jazz, this machine is even better it's a time transporter. It allows you to go back in time."

"Really amazing" Kurt said with surprise. "So it lets you go back to anytime you vant to?"

"Well not exactly" Forge admitted as he started fiddling with the control panel. "You see I can open a portal up but it can end up going to any time, and any place on Earth."

"How do you know it even vorks" Kurt asked. "Have you tested it."

"I sent a camera in a couple of times" he said showing him a small mobile camera device that seemed to have several arrows sticking into it.

"Vhat happened to it" Kurt asked with confusion as he picked it up and examined it.

"Well without proper armor a camera has no place in the Battle of Bull Run. But at least I got to see exactly how General Custer met his maker" Forge said. "Can you imagine what other historical debates and questions this device may answer."

"Like vhether the Vikings really did discover America first, or seeing Christ perform his miracles, or even."

"If Elvis really died," Forge grinned. "Sorry couldn't resist. Anyway I wanted to show you first since considering your ability you might be the best person to first test it," he explained.

"And vhy vould that be" Kurt rose an eyebrow indicating his suspicion.

"Well I know you remember the equipment I used to track you in the other dimension last time, well I modified it so that it would keep you tied to our time even as you went to another. It creates a signal that serves as a tether through the portal so when you teleport you could teleport through the portal without going through it" he explained.

"Vell that vas a mouth full" Kurt said. "And I'm not sure I vant to do this, I mean the last time I used one of your devices, vell you know."

"But come on Kurt" Forge sighed. "Without you I have no way of testing it."

"Testing what" Kitty's voice rang out as she strolled in, followed by Bobby and Piotr.

"Hey Forge you got some sort of new invention," Bobby asked as he got a closer look at what seemed to be Forge's latest contraption.

"Watch it Bobby" Forge said as he got in front of Bobby and extended his arms.

"Now what does it do" Piotr inquired as he looked at it.

"Oh vait do you get a load of this one" Kurt grumbled.

"It's a time machine, and now with the proper audience I can now turn it on" Forge grinned with excitement. "And maybe Kurt will help me."

"I don't think this is that good of an idea" Bobby said and everyone kind of stared at him. "What?"

"Well Bobby that just doesn't sound like you" Kitty explained. "You're the fun one."

"Thank you Bobby" Kurt nodded. "Finally someone else who sees...."

"I'm afraid the temporal prime directive of Star Trek, strictly forbids interference with the timeline" he interrupted Kurt who proceeded to just shake his head and mutter to himself.

"Forget Star Fleet and their regulations" Forge snapped back. "Besides Kirk violated it in Star Trek 4."

Kurt continued to shake his head while Piotr found the whole conversation relatively confusing since he had never seen Star Trek.

"And Picard violated it in Star Trek 8" Kitty mentioned and everyone stared at her. "Like can't a girl like Star Trek" she frowned as she folded her arms.

"Anyway with that being said I retract my objection" Bobby said. "Fire that puppy up Forge," he said as both he and Kitty looked on eagerly and even Piotr seemed quite interested, while Kurt continued to shake his head.

"Okay boys and girl get ready to be amazed" he said and proceeded to turn on the device. The door way expanded and began to glow and the entire room also was engulfed with a similar glow.

"So do you just step in?" Bobby asked as he reached out and stuck a hand quickly in and out.

"Hey watch it, the one problem is I'm not sure if it's safe for a human to go through, my probes tell me another portal appears on the other side, except it only lasts like 4 hours before it disappears, lost a probe back in 17th century Salem. I think I might have got some ladies in trouble" he shrugged.

Piotr looked around at the glow that had filled the room. "May I ask what has happened around the room?"

Forge looked around. "Oh don't worry about that. It just an additional force field that the portal admits to keep itself from expanding out and tearing the fabric of time" he said casually.

Bobby, Kitty and Piotr all stared at him seeming quite alarmed. "The fabric of time" Kitty gulped.

"Don't worry everything is completely under control, I planned through every detail" Forge assured them.

"Vhere have I heard that before" Kurt spoke up. He noticed the portal getting slightly bigger behind Forge. "Forge vhat's happening" he asked.

Forge turned around, as the portal seemed to draw closer to him. "I don't know I better turn it off" he said as he tried to run back to the control panel.

"Forge it's too dangerous" Kitty pleaded but it was too late.

As Forge reached for the panel, something caused him to slip and fall through the encroaching portal, disappearing.

"I don't like the looks of this" Bobby said, as the portal seemed to actually stop. "What do we do?"

"I knew this vas a bad idea" Kurt shook his head. "Vait here and vatch this thing, I'll go looking

Meanwhile upstairs Jean Grey had been having her own problems as she showed a new student around the Institute, by the name of Brian Braddock. The charming Brit had continued to hit on her, and though she found him quite nice she was very much taken.

"And this is the upper balcony" she said. "It has a great view of the surrounding area including Bayville" she explained.

"Personally darling I find the view right here much more lovely" Brian responded with a grin.

"Look your sweet Brian it's just that I already have a boyfriend" she explained once again.

Outside the sky quickly darkened and thunder and lighting began to be heard.

"Oh I see" he sighed when something else caught his eye. "Jean may I ask you a question" he asked as he saw what seemed to be several swirling Tornados forming all over the landscape, headed in every direction including the mansion.

"Look Brian this better not be about..." she began to say when Brian tackled her just before a tornado blew right into the balcony. "What was that for" she began to say when she realized what had

"Sorry I know it's completely ungentlemanly" he said as he pulled her up.

"Forget it" She yelled as she flew them down the hallway as the Tornado's started to swirl into the mansion. Jean noticed that they weren't destroying anything but everything they touched vanished and changed. "What is going on here" she thought.

Suddenly Kurt teleported in her way. "Jean I must find the Professor, there vas an accident down in Forge's lab" he explained.

"No time now Kurt" Jean explained as she added Kurt to her TK bubble. "Something strange is going on and we need to find the Professor.

She headed to Xavier's study but on the way found more tornadoes. "Damn it" She frowned. "Where do we go."

"Follow me children" a voice said and they saw Magneto also being chased. "There isn't much time, we must return to the laboratory" he explained before using his metal powers to tear through the several metal floors and flew down into it. Jean quickly followed after him.

The 4 mutants headed back into the laboratory and within the temporal field around the portal. Bobby, Kitty and Piotr had been observing the increasing winds surrounding the room as the walls vanished.

"What's going on?" Kitty asked as soon nothing but winds could be seen outside the protection of the forcefield.

"It is a temporal storm" Magneto explained. "At least that's what I expect it to be, if this is a time portal."

Bobby nodded. "Yeah Forge got sucked into it then all this stuff started to happen."

"So this must mean" Jean began to say.

"Yes that the young inventor must of changed the timeline. When he did it and How he did it, hopefully will come evident when the new timeline is firmly established" Magneto explained as the winds began to disperse and soon a whole new landscape could be seen outside the portal.

The Institute was completely gone and in its place was a dark regular basement. "Is it safe" Kitty asked.

"That is yet to be determined" Magneto said simply. "We must go outside and investigate" he explained and proceeded to walk out of the confines of the forcefield. He turned back. "Well are you coming?"

The students nodded and followed him out. Using Kitty, they teleported out to the alley so not to draw any attention to themselves. Many large buildings now stood where the Mansions lush grounds once stood.

The sky was dark and the streets almost empty as the small group of mutants emerged from the alley.

"Wow this place is real cozy ain't it" Bobby said as he took a look around. "What happened to Bayville?"

They all were looking around when something caught Kitty's eye. Up on every street light hung a banner. But this banner had a red background surrounding a very familiar symbol, the swastika. Kitty gasped in horror. "We are so not in Bayville anymore."

Okay this is my introductory chapter. Please give me feedback. It's a WWII time travel fic and I'm welcome to any ideas but these characters are generally the stars but I'm open to adding a few. Anyway please let me know what you think. As for couples since I know this tends to be an issue, I haven't got anything firm yet but I have a few ideas. Please give a chance and criticism is always welcome.
