Fire inu: Maybe FF was doing a little upgrade or something, I missed several updates the last time they did something like that.

celtcath74: Yeah I know I'm still unsure of what exactly to do, so I guess I'll just wing it for now and see where my writing takes me.

jadestar123: I didn't Jean is dead in the comics, she was killed by Magneto didn't I say that in an earlier chapter?

qwerty: Well thanks I'm happy you like it so much.

NctrnlBst: Yeah it would, plus I thought of a few other things that could go wrong also.

yae yang: Well you're about to find out what they plan to do.

The Uncanny R-Man: Yeah I know I couldn't remember them all, so I did as many as I could. Yeah I didn't see much of it in the comics, so I decided to put it in.

OKAY SOME PEOPLE APPEARANTY DON'T READ AUTHOR'S NOTES SO I HOPE THEY SEE THIS. FOR THE LAST TIME THIS IS THE COMIC VERION, NOT EVOLUTION OR THE MOVIE.
THE NEW TEACHER

CHAPTER 21: DISCUSSING ROGUE

Later that day at the end of the classes Peter had just finished packing up everything in his suitcase and was ready to call it a day. He left the classroom and was walking down the halls when he heard his name being called.

"Hey Peter wait up." He turned to see Kitty running after him. "Hey I needed to go into the city you want a ride instead of using a bus?"

Peter smiled. "Of course, at least with you I won't have to worry about getting a seat or what's on it."

Kitty smiled and led the way to the car. On the way out and once they passed the gate Kitty's mood changed from happy to very worried. "Peter I lied, I just needed to talk to you where it was safe to talk."

Peter looked at her a little confused. "Why wouldn't it be safe to talk in the mansion?"

Kitty bit her lower lip, Scott had told her that since he was a 'civilian' he wasn't supposed to know, but she guessed it was now or never. "You see Sage has this security system all over the place, there are cameras and stuff everywhere now, especially since the X.S.E. was formed. Also there are a few cameras placed by certain government types that they think we don't know about."

Peter sat there his mouth hanging open. "SINCE WHEN?"

Kitty flinched at his voice. "About a week ago." She said quietly. Peter on the other hand was stunned and scared. If they had talked about any of his Spider-Man stuff at the school every government group would learn about him. He already knew that Nick Fury had a file on him. Thankfully it was classified, although the fact that it existed was still troubling to him.

"Please tell me that's what you needed to tell me?" He groaned.

Kitty gave him an apologizing look. "Let me ask you something...did Rogue ever absorbed you?"

Peter thought about it for a minute, then the curse Kitty ever heard escaped from his lips, in fact she actually served the car, luckily no one else was on the road.
PARKER APARTMENT

Sitting around the kitchen table were MJ, Peter and Kitty. She had just finished filling in the other about Rogue's dream. Peter looked like he was deep in thought and then spoke up. "When she absorbed me and didn't show any knowledge of me I thought maybe it wasn't something I had to worry about."

Then he sighed deeply. "But I guess something must have stayed in her sub- conscious all this time and me being there must have triggered it."

"So what do we do?" MJ asked him. When he didn't answer he turned to Kitty. "Do you think she could be trusted?"

Kitty thought about it. "I think so, but with everything that's been going on lately I'm not too sure. It's been a while since we've seen each other but...I think so."

"But not for sure." Peter said darkly. Kitty saddened by it nodded slightly. "Then I guess there are a few options. First we can let her in and hope for the best, leave it alone and hope her mind lets go of it, or...I could quit."

MJ gave Peter a startled look. She knew he loved teaching and he was just getting to really know his students. Kitty gasped and immediately voiced her thoughts on that particular idea. "Are you nuts? I mean those kids love you, some I think actually look up to you, you can't bail on them!"

Peter sighed. He didn't want to leave but if it came to that he would. He loved teachingbut being Spider-Man came at a cost and one of them were to keep people from knowing who he was to keep those close to him safe.

And with the school under surveillance he couldn't afford to let the X-Men or anyone else there know, it would be too hard to keep it secret from the world. It was hard enough with guys like Norman who knew who he was, if all the other villains he faced through the years found out about his identity, there would be no way to keep his family safe.

"If it comes to that Kitty I'll have to." Peter said solemnly to her.

Kitty frowned deeply, she was really liked have Peter there, he was a good friend and she would miss seeing him on a day-to-day basses. "Can we at least wait this out for a while, you know see if she remembers anything else? If she does then we can explorethe option of letting Rogue in on this, but I want you to safe that last one until it absolutely necessary, got it?"

Peter couldn't help but smiled at her for wanting him to stay. "Alright, I'll safe leaving until I have to, but we should keep an eye on her, well I guess you should be the one keeping an eye on her, since she's a little wary of me."

Kitty nodded. "That sounds good to me."

"Kitty." MJ said and Kitty turned her attention to MJ. "I was wondering, what if we also tried to alleviate her fears or mistrust of Peter and me?" Kitty wasn't sure if she was following. "Well why don't we and the girls ask her and some of the others on the team to go out with us, you know for some quality time. Maybe she would feel a little better around Peter and me if she started to get to know us?"

"It might help...or it might trigger more in her sub-conscious." Peter said.

"Come on Peter she was going to join us girls sometime soon, at least with this MJ and me can see if anything seems to pop into her head or something." Kitty told him.

Peter thought about it. It was reasonable to say that Rogue and MJ would eventually meet on one of these nights out the girls had, so at least now they knew to look for any suspicious activity or questions she might have of Peter. Plus with the two of them there they could cover a few things up just in case. "Alright, it's risky but we have to know how much she can remember."
OFFICE OF OSCORP INDUSTRIES

Norman Osborn unknown to the world he is also called the Green Goblin sits at hisdesk, looking through several files and pictures. "So you're teaching once again eh Parker." He says to himself (like all villains apparently do). For a while he has been studying Parker at his new job, he was going to make a move but with all the new mutant adult there that would be impossible.

So he had to come up with an alternate plan. One to lure Spider-Man away from there and also to ensure that he would come to him and not call in the X-Men for help. He already had it, but he wanted to be sure of victory. So he had pulled up the files on certain individuals that would love to get their hands on him.

He looked over the names and grinned. Maxwell Dillon, Otto Octavius, Quentin Beck, Adrian Toomes, and finally Flint Marko. They would do nicely and they already had agreed to help him out.

"I'm going to hit you where you're the most vulnerable Parker." He said glaring at a picture of Peter. "Soon, very soon you will pay for everything."

NEXT UP CHAPTER 22: STUDENT TROUBLES


Next chapter will focus on certain students on a night out in New York and guess who they run into? And bonus points to those that can guess the other names of those people Norman got go by.
