Chapter 7

Friday finally came around, but school was beginning to be a drag on Kitty. She couldn't forget the words that were said to her last night. She just knew it was Russian, she compared it to Peter's speech over and over, but what did it mean? This question was frustrating her now.

Time flew, but Kitty was having no fun. Scott, Jean and the rest of Kitty's friends knew and had been warned that she wasn't supposed to talk to Peter. She ran into him in the hall that afternoon, trying to get a word out, but Rogue pulled her away to gym class. It was great that she noticed her and everything, but this, this was important to Kitty.

Kitty couldn't wait to get back, she anticipated speaking with Mr. McCoy. "Got trouble down by the warehouse. Magneto's decided to give his boys a tour of the town, suit up and get in the X-Van."

"But I have to talk to Mr. McCoy!" Kitty said panicked.

"Come on Kit, let's move." Scott shoved her toward the locker room.

Logan and Storm raced to the warehouse just as four giant, silver spheres touched down to the ground.

When they all got to the deserted area, everything was quiet. Kurt was sent out to check the spheres. "They're empty. They have to be here somewhere," Kurt teleported back to the others. "What do we do Logan?" The look on Logan's face was contorted. He took in a whiff of the air and immediately, his teeth snarled with a growl.

"Sabertooth," his head jerked around and all of a sudden a huge barrel of gasoline flew over their heads, smashing open over, coincidently, boxes and wooden crates that were labeled with TNT. Everyone else turned their heads and saw four big tough guys jump from the warehouse roof.

A pyromaniac, dressed in the hot colors of fire was the first to make an appearance. He had a small tank on his back, hooked up to two flame throwers on the sleeves of his arms that shot out spurts of fire on the boxes and crates. Then there was Sabertooth. Kurt and Kitty had a brush in with him before and knew he was a loose canon, which was possibly his one and maybe only weakness. The third guy looked familiar to Kurt, that day at school when Peter left with him in that car. That could only mean one thing . . .

The last to appear, jumping from an incredible height was the biggest of them all. As the sun shone down, it glistened against his stern, organic steel armored face. What, did he get himself polished or something?

Anyway, this was it. This was the fight they had all been training for, if only for a short period of time. They gathered up their courage and strength, and went head long into the fight.

Left hook, right hook . . . crossfire, roundhouse kick to the head, and then a body slam. WHAM! WHACK! The two teams were giving it all they had.

"Here kitty, kitty, kitty." Sabertooth hissed.

"Here kitty yourself." Kitty lifted up a long iron rod, looking back she saw Kurt helping, and threw it at him. Upon impact, Sabertooth let out a nasty cry of pain, but they knew it didn't affect him much. "Thanks Kurt," Kitty managed to let out when Sabertooth had fallen to the ground.

"Yeah, well . . . you're welcome." Kurt replied with a smile. She smiled too, then saw Colossus lift up a metal rail all by himself. Kurt had his back turned, but Kitty took him into her arms when the rail was projected into the air. She phased herself and Kurt, letting it pass through them without a scratch.

"Looks like metal head is feeling a bit left out," Kitty smirked and looked over to the warehouse behind them.

Kurt got back on his feet, as did Kitty, and they charged after Colossus.
