Okay, timne to be polite...Nah, I like talking to you people, it's fun.

Mareo and Anime: Okay fluffy is good, so must do more fluffy. ill be more after the next chapter. (Kale goes against BH and Duncan...I'm evil, huh?) Yes, that's the signature review thiny you do...it's so you.

iamhollywood: If you like the fight scenes, then you'll like this and the next chapter; lots a violence. The diologue parts are easy as long as i rememeber to stay in charater and not change them too much. Kale and Rahne will have more primal issuse when the date comes around but you'll see. The whole animal thing has big part to do with Kale's judgement and acions with the Genesi Squad. Now where is that chapter you sent; coulda sworn i told you to POST IT!

Lecheecopae: Just consider me a Author Buddy. Glad you like the chapter and don't kill yourslef with the eyes, jeez. And as to where the hell i am, look up Bermuda.

Okay, this chapter is like a scene filler and something to help me figure where i'm going to go with the story; Kale talks, fights, cracks jokes and sings; sounds like a fun night.


Preparing for the Date

Kale walked into his room and, sliding across the floor happily, opened his CD case and plopped some random CD in to his X-Box; it turned out to be Sevendust CD and instantly the song "Corrected" was starting to roar from his speakers attached to the X-Box. He pulled on a red shirt with random Japanese symbols all over it.

Then something hit Kale like a ton of bricks; what the hell were he and Rahne going to do on this date. He hadn't given it any pre-thought before he went and asked her out and he didn't really have any idea of what kind of restaurants there were; money wasn't a problem for Kale since he had money kept in separate banks in America, Sweden Germany and Japan, so he was fine there.

Kale sighed as he sat on his chair and leaned back on two legs of the chair; he then fell forward with a determination in his eyes few knew he could carry as an idea came to him making him feel kind of stupid at the same time. Unknown to him, Kale also began to sing the song, his voice matching the lead singer nearly; Kale was little softer and deeper but it was still good.

"Sun went down, it seen your life

It was over

Discuss, disgusted, with ruthless

No particular reason

It's over

Seems like you're hanging on

To something that's always been gone"

Kale flicked on his laptop, his fingers dancing across the keyboard and the glowing screen danced as he went from website to website with blinding speed. He was looking for movies that were playing in Bayville and was soon connected to movie database based in Los Angeles, hacking into the systems mainframe easily; no one became a world class assassin without some computer or hacking knowledge.

Kale smirked as he watched all the upcoming moves that were arriving tomorrow filter onto his screen and saw two tittles that interested him, Constantine and Hero. He thought about Van Helsing but was dubious; technically he was taking a werewolf out and he didn't really think she would want to see a werewolf movie.

"Can't you see what I can't be? Let me show you

Feelin' so corrected

Bleeding here in silence

You say that I'm evicted

One thing that real to me

What does it mean to you?"

Kale leaned back in his chair and let his shoulders pop and clicks, all along his spinal cord following suit. Kale let out a happy growl and dropped back down in his seat, swinging off of his seat. At least now he had some idea of what he was going to do, instead of blindly winging it; well, technically he was still winging it after the movies and before but that would be decided later.

Standing up, Kale pulled his sketch book out from under a pile of completed school work and began doodling with a nearby pencil; he didn't really pay attention to what he was drawing as he crossed his legs and sat at the foot of his bed. The schoolwork proved to easy enough for Kale and he even held back in some classes like Todd had suggested so they didn't attract much attention to themselves. His pencil was soon flying all over the page, the song still strong on his lips.

"You make me feel so left behind I can't wait to get there

What's it like for you, it's a dream

You have everything I want and all you do-"

Kale jumped up as his door was slammed open, raising his pencil to throw at the intruders if necessary and felt his body flop down when he saw it was just Jubilee, Amara, Kurt, Kitty and Rogue. They were all jabbering insistently to him that Kale had to put his hand and his drawing pad over his ears; putting his finger in his mouth, Kale gave a loud ear splitting whistle that silenced everyone. Kale loved having enhanced hearing, but it was immensely annoying at times when his mind got a sensory overload.

"Okay, now what in the bloody problem?" Kale asked, a smirk dancing on his lips.

"You're taking Rahne on a date?" Kitty asked excitedly, literally bouncing were she stood.

"Uh….yeah." Kale answered a little hesitantly at the wide eyed and eccentric looks. "Why does it matter?"

"Um hello, you would be her first date here." Jubilee said, rolling her eyes at Kale shocked expression.

"I thought someone as beautiful as her would have been on at least ten different odd dates." Kale said, leaning against the bed frame.

"Nah, she had a crush on Roberto and for a while had one on Sam, but she just can't seem to find anyone who matches her animal soul." Amara said from his desk chair, making Kale smile broadly.

He had always wondered why someone as beautiful and kind was single, but he had just been too happy to care about it. And he hadn't thought that anyone would go for him since he had basically just been a new guy and had one of the more extreme powers

"Okay, I'm a happy little lizard now!" Kale said, standing up but dropping his drawing pad.

Kale started to reach down for the pad when as black boot rested itself perfectly on top of it and he rose up to look Rogue in the eyes, red eyes meeting green fires; he watched as her face hardened at his last comment and his cocked his head in slight confusion.

"Kale, you had better not be trying to take advantage of Rahne, cause I'll hand you your spine." Rogue said threateningly and narrowed her eyes when he raised an eyebrow with an amused smirk. "I serious Kale, lay a finger on her the wrong way, I'll kill you."

Kale's face hardened and he walked right up to Rogue so he was looking her square in the eye, a growl emitting from his throat. Rogue's face trembled slightly and Kale chuckled darkly, his red eyes flickering with a unknown fire; Rogue could see that the threat didn't scare him and that he might have seen worse than what she had threatened.

Kale watched as Rogue tore her face away, but he grabbed her shirt covered arm and made her stay in place. He didn't have to feel the shaking from her body to know she was scared; he could smell it reeking from her. Snorting, Kale took a few steps back and shook his head.

"You wouldn't; it's not in your body, mind or soul to do something like that. Not yet." Kale said ominously; he then gestured to the book. "Can I have that back now?"

Rogue forced her body to move and eventually her foot left the book, taking a few steps back from it. But before he could get it, Kurt picked it up for him and Kale felt himself go red all over as the blue mutants jaw dropped. Kale hesitantly reached out for it but the girls had stepped beside him and were mimicking the stunned expression. When Rogue saw it, she smiled and shook her head.

"Ya really got something for Rahne, don't ya?" She asked smirking.

Kale felt his face heating up because he knew what picture they were talking about; he had drawn Rahne sitting on a rock by the pond, with the moonlight washing down around her. Super imposing above her was a wolf howling, looking as though it was floating above the trees. He had kept the drawing black and white, the moonlight enhancing the effect of the shadows; he made the wolf image look like it was made from clouds ands winds, giving a magical like feeling.

"Yeah, he's got it bad." Jubilee said wickedly, making Kale glare at her.

"Oh, Jubilee," Kale said in a slight sing song voice. "Have you talked to the farmer's boy about your mad crush?"

Jubilee's jaw dropped and she went beat red while everyone in the room gaped at her; Kale managed to duck under the shower of fireworks the embarrassed Asian teen sent at him.

Rolling on the ground, Kale sprang out of his room as fast as he could with Jubilee in hot pursuit and had to leap over Sam and Bobby, stopping when he heard that Jubilee had crashed into the two. Kale looked back and laughed when he saw that Jubilee had landed on top of Sam, making the both of them go red and in her case even redder.

"Well, Jubilee you don't waste anytime to pounce on your crush do you?" Kale asked leaning against the wall. "At least get a room when you two start getting rowdy and racy."

Sam's jaw dropped open as his hands were under her arms and she was literally sitting on his lap in the most provocative position. But that wasn't even in his mind; he was more blown away by the fact that Jubilee was interest in him than anything else and his brain was going into information overload with her perched on his lap.

"She l-likes m-me?" Sam stuttered with a dazed look.

"Yeah, you like him?" Bobby asked, a huge grin plastered on his face. "I told ya so, Sammy boy!"

Jubilee felt as though she had died of embarrassment and had gone to hell, her face burning brightly and her jaw dropping at Kale's last comment

"Kale you are so dead!" Jubilee screamed as she leaped off of Sam and chased him down the hallway, Kale's laughter echoing all the way, leaving a very confused and embarrassed Sam.


Kale whistled as he walked down the stairs to the danger room, dressed in his X-Men uniform that he had made from spare uniforms that Xavier didn't use anymore. He had found a collection of them when he was wondering around the lower compartments of the X Mansion and had decided to make his own outfit; he most certainly didn't want to be wearing spandex.

After having diner and making sure Jubilee wouldn't tear his throat out, Kale had been called down to Danger Room for his session by the Professor and he had to change from what he had been wearing so that he could test out his new uniform.

His upper body was covered by a tight fitting leather vest and had three X's design onto the outfit, two on the shoulder and one on the centre so it was bisected by the zipper. Since he was transformed, the clothing gave a perfect image of what he looked like minus the scars.

He also had long camouflage pants with military style boots and rigging gloves covering his hands and wrists with the finger tips cut off. Kale glanced down at his claws as they glistened brightly, despite being an ebony color; reaching back, Kale felt the handle of his katana sticking out from the scabbard from where it was strapped to his back.

As the elevator went down to the Danger Room, Kale pulled his sword out and looked at the blade; his red eyes narrowed as he read the Japanese writing. Having spent so long on one of the Japanese islands, Kale learned how to speak and write in Japanese, Cantonese and other Asian languages. So the swords meaning wasn't unknown to him, the words flashing in his mind.

私の本当の強さは中心及び精神にある

My true strength lies in the heart and soul

Sighing, Kale sheathed his sword as the doors opened and he made his way to the Danger Room; the elders of the Japanese village he had stayed in told him that the physical strength he had was finite but the power he personally possessed in his soul was greater than anything in the world.

Kale thought it was just hypocritical bullshit, until he had to try and use the ultimate powers of Kimaguare, the main and true element in white magic, bring one of his friends back from death. Kale closed his eyes as he remembered the amount of faith Yukiko had in him and how he was just barely able to bring her back, paying a price for it.

When the doors open Kale walked down hall and into the Danger Room. Logan was waiting for as he walked into the room, his arms cross of his massive chest and his ever gruff face showing mere amusement.

"Ready to train, Scales?" Logan asked unsheathing his claws as he unfolded his arms.

"Bring it, Claws." Kale said, pulling his sword out. "I was bone ready to fight."

They walked around each other, faking a few blows to find opening in their chosen stances. It didn't help that Kale was being distract by Logan talking to him.

"So you and swamp breath are brothers? I haven't ever seen much skill from him." Logan said, swiping at Kale with his claws.

"Never had a reason to fight at his full strength is what I was told." Kale said as he blocked the claws and returned the blow with a swift slice. "The kids he aren't exactly the most highly trained fighters I've seen."

"Uh huh." Logan grunted as he crossed his claws the block the attack. "And you were looking real hard at the fighting techniques of Furtop".

Kale stumbled and Logan kicked his feet out from under him, making him fall smack on his face; rolling onto his stomach, Kale pushed off the ground with hand and rose up onto his feet with lethal hook to Logan face.

Kale winced as his fist smacked against the indestructible skull which sent the older man stumbling away and using the blow as a distraction, Kale sliced open his chest with his katana.

"She…is…an extremely…good fighter." Kale panted as he blocked Logan's claws, first the right set, then the left and the right again.

"I was referring as how you were practically drooling over her tonight at dinner." Logan said, grunting as he blocked the singled handed overhead slash Kale gave him but was gut punched by him with the other hand.

Logan knocked away Kale's sword and lunged with both of his claws at the Irish teen's face, unprepared for what happened next; Kale grabbed the Canadian's wrists and twisted them outwards, his superhuman strength giving him the advantage. Slamming his knee into Logan's chest so hard the he lifted him off the ground, Kale threw him over his shoulder and kicked him square in the chest in mid-flight, while he was facing the other way.

Both blows sent Logan flying across the Danger Room and slammed him against the wall while Kale reared his head back and let out a draconic roar. Logan quickly rose up and charged the back of Kale; his right arm raised the slice Dragon's back open as he darted towards him. Kale glanced at the floor and saw his sword a few feet in front of him, his mind simultaneously thinking of a plan.

Leaping across the floor, Kale rolled on the ground and grabbed his sword as he went over it, coming up on his feet fast. His heightened senses of touch allowed him to feel the footsteps half a pace away from him and Kale whirled around in time to block the raised set of claws and to catch the other set aimed for his gut. He used his tail to ram Logan in the gut, making the man buckle.

"I…ugh…wasn't…argh…drooling" Kale managed to say as the two warriors wrestled each other.

"Please kid…you couldn't….take yer eyes off her." Logan said as Kale pushed his arm back with his katana, bring their faces close. "Ya like her, don't you?"

"Yes, I do." Kale snarled and head butted Logan.

This hurt Kale more than it hurt Logan and Kale let out a long string of curses as he rubbed his forehead. Reversing his grip on his sword, Kale brought the blade up to Logan's face, but it was caught; turning his claws around, Logan caught the sword between the claws and twisted it out of the kid's hands, his right leg kicking across the Kale's face.

Kale didn't even pause; the moment the blade was wrenched from his hands, Kale kicked him in his gut and brought the foot back to kick him in the head. Kale ducked under a slice of claws, the blade cutting his long hair in the back. Logan tried to jab Kale but Kale pushed his hand out to the side and rammed his left elbow into Logan's gut, his right hand still lock on Logan's wrist.

Reaching back and grabbing the Wolverine's hair, Kale knelt down and threw him over his shoulder, slamming him on the ground in front of him. As Kale came up, Logan pulled his claws into his hands and hooked Kale across the face, making him fall down across the floor.

Logan did a handspring up to his feet and tried to give an elbow drop to Kale's back, but a streak of green shot out and wrapped around his chest; Kale whipped his head around and snarled at Logan, who was being held up by the dragons' tail. Kale then slammed Logan on either side of him and tossed him the air, leaping into the air and kicking him in the chest with both feet.

"And what's this about the two of you going on a date?" Logan asked he got up and brushed himself off.

"Bloody buggering hell, gossip here is like a fucking plague here." Kale said walking towards Logan.

Logan's uniform looked like it had been through a shredder and his wounds were healed near perfectly. Kale saw his katana lying in front of him, his foot sliding under it and kicking it up to his waiting had. Twirling it around a bit, Kale sheathed it on his back and cracked his neck joints as he caught his breath.

After watching him go at it with the New Mutants and Wolverine, the Professor had decided that Kale should really only train with Logan because they both possessed a lethal amount of skill in combat. Kale didn't mind, he wasn't endangering anyone's life and he got to sharpen his skills, although a trouble he had thought of when he was first going at it was when he started to memorize Logan's moves.

"Listen Scales, if your taking her out on date, I don't mind. Logan said rest his hand on Kale's shoulder. "I know you'll treat her respectively."

Kale nodded and Logan grabbed the back of his neck, his other hand extending his outer two claws to bracket his face with the middle claw under his throat. Kale glanced at Logan with a raised eyebrow, who gave his a coup du grace smile.

"Cause I will gut you if you lay a finger on her wrong." Logan growled to which Kale nodded, the tip of the claw scratching against the scales.

Suddenly a high pitched siren went off and Logan's eyes narrowed, his hand moving away so his claws could fully extend. Kale gave him a perplexed look and closed his eyes to let his other senses over take; from the air duct off to the side he heard and felt large and heavy foot falls, smeling the same revolting cologne he had in his first class and another scent he knew too well.

"Pietro, Todd." Kale murmured, his eyes blazing.

"Get out there now Dragon, while I get the others!" Logan Barked to Kale, who bolted for the vent leading to the roof. "The Brotherhood is attacking!"


Uh-oh, Kale's first amtch agaisnt the Brotherhood and Todd's first fight with out holding back! This might be fun...

Anyway please review, i miss you people and your insipring comments!
