Toad: The Crow: Salvation lost.

Todd was sitting on the floor with his chest bare; slowly, he picked up the dagger and dragged it across his chest. Spilling crimson down his chest, as Todd watched the blood flow as a new memory came out.

Todd was sitting in Professor X's study with a bandage over his shoulder from where Logan had clawed him. Todd looked at Logan and Prof X nervously, as that all that sat between him and them was an oak desk.

''Now Todd, you know your not in any trouble. I've actually known of your's and Betsy's relationship for sometime.''

As the Professor finished saying this, Logan let out a growl. ''You know about stink boy?''

A quick glances from prof x stopped him dead ''Now Logan, Todd didn't kneed to go throw what you did to Lances when he started dating Kitty properly''.

Turn back to Todd "We both know you in love with Betsy and that your relationship will only work if one of you changes sides. So I would like to offer you a places here.''

Toad at hearing this, spat up a small bit of slime. ''Why I don't agree with what you ideas yo''.

A small smile came to prof x faces "well why not tell me what yours are?"

Todd looked at the floor "were the next step yo, the earth going to be ours one day. Till then the norms leave us alone, we leave them alone yo but if they don't and start hurting us well you know."

"Well then Todd it looks like I am going to have a couple of happy students and few, what's the word ticked of ones" the prof said with a smile.

Todd smiled back "I think the word was pis"

Prof X quickly cut him off "that kind of langue doesn't benefit any one. Now Todd your answer?"

Todd closed his eyes "yes"

"Then welcome to the x-men".

As the blood slow stopped to flow, the memory faded away. Taken the blade Todd took the knife to his bicep musle and started to make shallow cuts across his arms. Like rain drops the blood splattered on the floor. As the memory of the meeting were prof x was to tell every one his answer.

Todd sat on the book self hiding in the shadows. He could here the all the conversations going on between Lances and kitty.

"I cant believe you just said that!" Lances nearly shouted.

Kitty looked at Lances shocked at his tone "well he all ways acts like a creep and I don't want nicking my stuff."

Lances looked at kitty hurt "listen Todd is like a little brother to me and when you get to know him your see his not as creepy as he seems. Also he only stole so we at the hood house food" .

"Well once a hood all ways a hood" said Jean as she entered the room. Before any think else could be said, Betsy got up from her chair in the corner and into Jeans faces. As this the other students gathered around.

"What did you say?" Spat an irate Betsy.

"I said his nothing but a dirty" but before Jean could finish, Betsy slapped her across the faces.

At this Jean step back out of shock and Scot moved forward like he was going to hurt Betsy.

But before he could do any thing Todd came flying from his hiding spot, knocking Scot flat on chest, pinning him. "Don't you dare touch's her" he shouted.

At hearing the nosie Logan stormed into the libbary and shouted "STOP!"

As Logan looked around the room and saw Todd pinned Scot to the ground. "You, I knew it, come here stink boy".

As Logan went to grab Todd, Jamie blocked him. "It wasn't his fault".

Seeing Jamie in front of him stop Logan and made him grow "move kid".

Jamie just looked at him "No, Scot went for Betsy, after she hit Jean. Todd was only protecting Betsy".

Hearing this Logan let out a sigh "ok all four of you to the prof offices now and no talking."

Todd snapped out of the memory as the crow called to him to resume the hunt and to bring about his vengeances.
