I don't own Kingdom Hearts or X-Men Evolution. They belong to Disney and Square Enix. Hey, I'm back with another chapter. To be fair I actually started this one the same time as the pervious chapter. It didn't take as long to finish up. Anyways, let's reply to some reviews in this chapter...
ajjr12: There's actually a good explanation for that. It'll be explained later on in the season.
NinjaFang1331: Thank you! I'm glad you liked the twist with Peitro.
God of the Challenge: We'll see. She might in future chapters but his main mentor figure for this season and part of the second season will be Ben Kenobi. Or better known as Obi-Wan Kenobi. But I'll see if I can get some of that in there.
Well, with that out of the way, time to start the next chapter...
Chapter 8: Middleverse
The school bell ring, indicating that lunch break had started. Sora, Scott, Jean, Kurt, Evan, and Kitty all got a table together. They talked about how the day had been going so far, and then Jean brought up a topic Scott wasn't too happy about, "Go to Duncan Matthews' party? I don't think so." Evan asked, "You gonna finish that moo juice?"
"You can have mine." Jean replied as she gave her's to Evan. As he had a ship, she replied to Scott, "Come on. It might be fun."
"Matthews is a jerk." Scott replied. Kitty shook her head, "No he's not. I'd go." Scott then informed her, "No freshmen allowed."
"Oh, Matthews is a jerk." Kitty crossed her arms in annoyance. Sora offered, "Maybe, I can ask Riku if he can find a way for all of us to go."
"Thanks for the offer, Sora." Kitty smiled. Scott added, "Half of the school will be there. Suppose somebody gets too close to Kurt? That holo-projector won't stop them from feeling his fur."
"Hey! Chicks dig the fuzzy dude! Right?" Kurt asked Kitty. Instead of answering she replied, "I am, like, so out of here. Later!" With that she left as Sora waved goodbye, "See ya later, Kitty!"
"Oh, yeah. She can't resist." Kurt smirked. Scott replied, "I'm trying to be serious here. Look, we go to Matthews' party. Suppose Dukes or Maximoff try to start something?"
"Petrio's outta jail already...and at our school?" Sora asked in shock. Evan nodded, "Yeah, he's over there. Someone must of bailed your brother out and send him to our school." Sora was puzzled, "Weird."
"Look, my point is, we're not the only mutants in the school." Scott told them. Evan smirked, "Yeah, just the cool ones." He then high-fived Sora and Kurt. Jean then added, "Hey, come on, Scott. What's wrong with a little socializing?"
"I'm sorry, but I just don't think it's a good idea." Scott concluded. Kurt then jumped his seat and began to dance, "Dude, it's just a party! Time to shake that tail! Party! Party! Party!" Kurt's tail then showed thankfully none of the normal humans saw. Scott quickly grabbed his tail and pulled him down, "Hey, watch the tail! Now see? That's exactly what I'm talking about!" Scott explained. Kurt complained, "You pulled my tail, man!"
"Grow up, Kurt." Scott told him. Kurt then replied, "Hey, lighten up, dude!"
"You're always goofing around." Scott pointed out. Kurt argued, "And you're seriously cramping my style!"
"Listen..." Scott began before Kurt cut him off, "No! You listen! There's a sound I want you to hear. And it's..." He then telported away from the group. Scott coughed as he swung his hand move the smoke away. He then asked his friend, "Blew it, didn't I?"
"Oh, yeah." Jean nodded. Evan agreed, "Totally." Sora nodded as he got up from his seat, "Probably not the best way you handled that situation. I try to find him and talk to him but you owe him an apology." He waved his friends goodbye as he went to search for Kurt...
Meanwhile, Rogue was reading a book to herself when she smelled something. She followed the smell to a door down some out door stairs to the school where Kurt had telported and landed on some cardboard boxes. He groaned, "I have got to work on my re-entries." He then looked at his holo-watch as it broke when he re-entired as hie true form was shown, "Oh, weak, man." He then saw someone heading his way, he could her girl ask, "Who's there?" He began to panic quietly. If anyone found him like this than it was goodbye to the secert about mutants. He looked around for a way out and saw a door that had a sign that said keep out. After a brief debate with himself, he ran to the door and telported inside.
"Man, somebody should fire the custodian." He coughed. He then saw he was in an old lab that hadn't been used in years. As he looked around he tripped on a red laser that activated the computers. An image of a boy appeared, "January 22, 1978. Hi there. If you're hearing this, you've got 10 seconds before this lab self-destructs. Have a nice day. What's left of it."
"Uh-oh! I should have paid attention in computer lab!" Kurt began to panic as the countdown began. He began pressing random buttons in hopes to stop the countdown. As Rogue walked closer to doors, the lab exploded send both her and Kurt flying. Rogue was the first to get up and check on Kurt, "Hey! Hey! Are you okay? What happened?"
"Lab... Booby-trapped..." Kurt groaned as he got up. Rogue rasied an eyebrow as she turned to the destroyed lab, "Lab?"
"Whatever this stuff was, it's thrashed now." Rogue coughed when she noticed a device that surived the explosion, "Except for this." As the she picked up the device, Kurt asked, "What are you doing here?"
"Look who's talking! At least I didn't blow the place up." Rogue replied. Kurt then noticed the device, "Hey, let go of that!" They began to fight over it, "Back off, blue boy!"
"Who says you're in charge here?" Kurt replied when Rogue accidentally pressed a button which shot a beam at Kurt and with a flash of light, it disappeared. Rogue gasped in shocked as she dropped the device, "He's gone!"
When the light show was over, Kurt realized he was now in a different part of the school, "What happened? Where am I? The Twilight Zone?" Kurt noticed faint images of other students walking by before disappearing again. He could see his friends Kitty and Evan talking to eachother, "Man, Scott's gotta lighten up."
"Yeah, but Kurt's gotta, like, know when to quit." Kitty replied. Kurt called out to her, "Kitty? Kitty!" But when he tried to reach out for her he just phased right through her, "No! Wait! No!" Just then he saw an faint image of Sora and the girl he liked, "Hey, Kairi, have you seen Kurt anywhere?"
"Sorry, Sora. Last I seen him, he was with you and your friends at the Institute." She replied. Kurt called out, "Sora! I'm right here!" Sora turned in shock, "Did you hear something?"
"No...what is it?" Kairi asked as Kurt phased through them as well. Sora shook his head, "It was probably nothing..." As there images dispeared, Kurt couldn't help up wonder, "What's happening to me?"
"Hey!" Toad smirked as he saw the bug on the road. He licked his lips and prepared to eat it when a car honked, "Out of the way!" Toad moved as Raven Darkhölme parked her car. Toad complained, "My lunch!"
"You are to stay away from this area, Mr. Tolansky. If I see one drop of slime on my new car, it's detention for life. Are we clear?" Mystique threatened. Toad nodded but when she looked away Toad's eyes narrowed, "Oh, yes. We're very clear." He then stuck his togue out at her...
Meanwhile with Rogue, she used a broom to carry the device that she believed she killed Kurt with in the dumpster. However, she missed causing to fall, Rogue paniced as she hoped it wouldn't fire. Thankfully, it didn't but that's when Toad noticed the device, "What's this?"
"Don't touch it!" Rogue warned him. Toad asked, "Why not?"
"It's... Never you mind! Just leave it alone!" Rogue told him as she carefully picked it up. He smirked, "What's the matter? Little Rogue get into some trouble? Trouble?"
"No. There's just one less X-Man to push us around." She explained as she threw it in the dumpster. Toad was amazed, "Say what? You mean, you toasted one of them goody-goods with that thing? Wicked." He went to get it but Rogue stopped him, "Hey! Just leave it alone! You got it, swamp breath?"
"Jeez, what is this, Abuse the Toad Day?" He asked himself as Rogue left. He then picked up the device from the dumpster to examin it. He then tried pushing a random button turning it on. He paniced as he hoped away as it fired at the dumpster. He hung to a tree as was he witnessed it, "Cool."
"So you and Sora think I should apologize to Kurt?" Scott asked Jean. She replied, "Well, what matters is what you think." Scott scowled, "You gotta admit he jerks around way too much."
You can argue Sora does too but he means well just like him. Is that worth losing a friend over?" Jean pointed out. Just then they say two teenage run out of the boys restroom, "A ghost! We just saw a ghost!"
"Yeah! A blue and hairy demon!"
"I'm out of here!"
"I warned him!" Scott exclaimed. He then marched in the restroom, "Kurt?" He then saw no one was there, Jean asked, "Not there?"
"No. You'd better contact him. Tell him to knock it off." Scott told her. Jean handed him her book then began to scan the school but much to her shock, there was no sign of him. She tried scan for him in the Institute and beyond but he wasn't there either, "Scott, I can't pick up a trace of Kurt anywhere. It's like he doesn't exist."
"Try again. He's gotta be somewhere." Scott told her. Jean replied, "I am. I'm not getting anything. He's just completely gone.
"Or somebody did something to him." As he glared towards Lance and Fred. Lance glared at him, "What are you looking at, Summers?"
"Where's Kurt?" Scott demanded. Fred crossed his arms, "Yeah, like we'd tell you!" That was enough for Scott to think they did something to him. He charged at Lance, Jean tried to stop him, "Scott, no!"
Scott grabbed Lance by the shirt and slammed him into the lockers, "Hey!" Scott repeated his question, "I said, where is he?"
"Get off of me!" Lance demanded. Scott woundn't let up, "What have you done with Kurt?" Fred the grabbed Scott and pulled him away from Lance and into the air, "Get lost, slim!"
"Put him down!" Jean demaned. Lance then stood in her way, "Back off, red, or I'll rock you! " The lockers shook at Lance's power. It look like a fight was going to begin to the four of them. The other students chanted, "Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!"
Rogue looked away with guilty in her eyes, just then Principal Darkhölme made her way through the crowd, "What is going on here?!"
"We weren't doing nothing." Fred replied. Lance nodded, "Yeah! Summers here just went ballistic on us for no reason!" As Fred put him down, Scott glared at them, "Oh, I've got a reason." Jean stopped him before he made things worse for them, "Scott..."
"Quiet! You two in my office now." Raven told them. Lance smirked as they did as they told. The brotherhood member gave the an L figure with his fingers as the two X-Men went to the Principal's office. Rogue pretended to search through her locker as they past her...
Sora signed as he sat down, he looked for the past hour and he couldn't find him anywhere. Just then a voice spoke out to him, "Is something troubling you?" Sora turned to see Ben Kenobi walk up to him, "Oh, hey, Ben... You wouldn't have seen Kurt anywhere?"
"Hmmm...I'm afraid not." He replied. Sora signed, as Ben asked, "What happened?"
"Scott and Kurt got into an argument and he marched off, I wanted to talk to him but I can't seem to find him anywhere. No one has seen him since." Sora explained. Ben thought, "Sora, you have a special ability to connect to those around, you could sense him..."
"I wish I could...it's more like Jean or the Professor's thing." Sora replied. Ben shook his head, "Nonsense. They can only read there mind and control their actions. You can sense where they are and what their doing even if there not on this world...so close your eyes and trust your instincts." Sora gave it a moment before he closed his eyes. After a moment, he said, "I can feel him...it's like he's here but not..."
"Very good...what else do you feel?" The old man asked. Sora replied, "I feel like he's in the school and yet...no one can see him... How does that make any sense?"
"Hmm...it seems to me, instead of trying to find Kurt you should find a friend who might know what happened to him..." Ben suggested. Sora nodded as he searched out when he opened his eyes, "Rogue... Rogue knows what happened to him..."
"Very good. Find her and you'll find Kurt." Ben told him. Sora nodded as he rushed off to find her...
Kurt then telported to another part of of the building, where ever he was he was still there, "Okay. Wherever this is, I can't teleport out! This is just way too freaky!" Just then a desk telported in nearly crushing him. He dodged out of the way as he exclaimed, "It's raining furniture!"
Back in the real world, Toad was using the device to rid Mystique of furniture from her office, "See the desk. Don't see the desk. See the chair. Don't see the chair." He chuckled to himself, "So, Miss Big Shot, let's see how you like my new clean office policy."
"Inside, both of you." He heard the principal's quickly jumped out the window as she lead Scott and Jean to his office, "I don't care what influence Xavier has with the school board. I am going to get..." She then noticed her room was empty, "What?! What happened here? Who took my furniture?!" As she left the room, Scott and Jean looked out the opened window and saw Toad using a device to make the principal's new car dissapear. Sora muttered, "Bet I know what happened to Kurt."
"Scott, look!" Jean gasped. A faint image of Kurt appeared before disappearing again. Scott muttered, "It's Kurt! Or his ghost."
"No. I got a brief mental reading. It's like he's trapped somewhere." Jean replied. Scott turned to her, "I think we better have a talk with the Toad."
Meanwhile, Rogue walked to herself to the next class, when she heard, "Hey, Rogue? Can we talk for a sec?"
She turned to see Sora, she signed, "Sure, what do you need?" He replied, "First, I wanted to thank you again about warning me about Pietro."
"It's no problem, so what was his deal with you?" Rogue asked. Sora frowned, "Turns out, he's my adpoted older brother." Rogue winced, "Yikes! Sorry to hear that." Sora shook his head, "It's alright...it's just sinks the only family I met in God only knows how long hates me."
"I'm sure, you have other family who loves ya." Rogue replied. Sora then asked, "Anyways, have you seen Kurt anywhere? I have a feeling he was last seen with you?"
Rogue frowned with guilt. Sora asked with concern, "What happened?" Rogue confessed as tears fell, "Sora...I've done something aweful...I didn't mean for it to happen but..."
"Rogue...tell me what happened?" Sora sat down and offered to do the same. Rogue sat beside and asked, "You promise you won't get mad..." Sora smiled and nodded. Rogue signed as she explained, "It started this afternoon, I was reading a book when I smelt something..."
Kurt contenuied do dodge cars and furniture but when they stopped, he entered the gym he looked around for anything else the came his way when some touched his shoulder, causing Kurt to gasp telport away. Kurt stuck to the wall as the teenager coughed, "Whoa! Where'd you come from?" Kurt hopped back to the ground, causing the other teen to gasp in shock. Kurt rasied his arms, "Relax."
"What are you, man?" He asked. Kurt replied, "Don't let my looks fool you. I'm a harmless blue fuzz ball. Really." He then remembered that he seen his face before, "Hey, I know you. You're the one I saw on the computer screen just before it blew."
"Yeah. The name's Forge. You found my lab, huh? What's with the Halloween getup?" Forge asked. Kurt shook his head, "No costume. I'm human. But I'm a mutant. I know I look strange, but..." He then telported closer, "There are some fringe benefits."
"Trippy! I thought I was the only one." Forge smiled as he made his hand mechanical much to Kurt's amazement...
Back in the real world, the X-Men minus Sora, we're currently chasing Toad. Cyclops told the team, "There he goes!" Scott fired an optic blast at him as Toad barley dodged it. He then aimed the machine at them, "Take that!" He then fired it at them as Jean warned Kitty, "Shadowcat, down!" She yelped as she phased to the ground as it made the water fountain behind her dissapear...
Meanwhile, Forge was working with what he had as the water fountain landed next to them. Kurt muttered, "Man! Somebody's really giving that gizmo of yours a workout." Back with the real world, the X-Men contenuied pursuit of toad as Scott gave the order, "Get him!"
"That gizmo is a trans-dimensional projector. My science fair project back in '78. And when I fired it up it created this pocket dimension that I call 'Middleverse.' I got caught in the ray myself and I've been here ever since." Forge explained while he worked. Kurt was even more shocked, "78? But you still look...
"Like I did then? I know. I can't explain it. They shut down and locked my lab after the accident. Everyone was totally freaked when I disappeared." Forge nodded. Nightcrawler frowned, "So there's no way back?"
"Not without help from the other side. And I'm thinking that you may be able to help out on that. And, man, I'm telling you, I'm ready to go home." He replied with hope. Kurt then noticed some faint images beautiful teenage girls pass by, "You are so lucky."
"Oh, isn't he so cute?"
"Totally!"
"I know." Kurt saw them go into the girls locker room. He smirked as he asked, "So just how far does this Middleverse extend?"
"Stops just short of the girls' locker room." Forge answered. Kurt frowned as the other mutant nodded, "Isn't that a burn?"
"Done!" He exclaimed as he showed off the new invention. Kurt wondered, "What is it?"
"This little baby will alter the phase-shift frequency of your teleport power." Forge explained. Kurt shrugged, "My English is a little limited."
"You can teleport back to the real world..." He simplified. Kurt beamed, "All right!" However, Forge then added, "But only for a sec. These batteries don't have much power." Kurt frowned as Forge hooked him up to the machine, "Still, with luck, you can tell somebody how to reset the projector to get us back."
"Oh, I just hope they don't think I'm joking. I kind of have that rep." Kurt worried. Just then monster form from the ground, Forge gasped, "What are those?!" Kurt gasped, "Unversed! Here?!"
"What's an Unversed?" Forge asked. Kurt replied, "Monsters! And the bad thing is...I think they can see us!" An Unvserd chaged in to attack causing them to dodge. Forge exclaimed, "Let's work in a safer environment!" Kurt then telported them away before they could attack agian...
Rogue lead Sora to where she lead the deivice, "Okay, if any luck Kurt's still alive ther might be a way to reverse it to get him back. So, where did you put it last. Rogue nodded, "It's right over...oh no... It's gone!" Sora and Rogue looked to where the dumpster once was, Sora couldn't believe it, "But trash day happened yesterday and they would have left the dumpster..."
"Then where could of it gone?" Rogue wondered. Sora then asked, "Did anyone else know about the device?" Rogue shook her head, "Just me and Kurt..." Her eyes widened as she rememebered, "And Toad! Toad must have took it! Ugh! I told him not to touch it!"
"Alright let's remain calm! Let's just find Toad and hope he hasn't used it to hurt anyone or worse break the one chance of getting Kurt back." Sora told her. Rogue nodded as they sent off to find Toad...
The X-Men cornered Toad to a tree. He threatened them, "Get lost! I'm warning you!" Scott blasted him down while Jean caught the device with her powers, "Got it!" As Jean took the device as Toad turned to leave, "That's it! I'm out of here!" However, Even fire a spike to pin Toad to the tree, "Why don't you stick around for a while?"
"Now, tell us what you did to Kurt." Cyclops threatened him. Toad exclaimed, "I didn't do anything!"
"He didn't." Said a new voice. Everyone turned to see Rogue and Sora ran up to them, she told them, "I did. If you all want to find blue boy, you better let him go." Sora vouched for her, "It's okay you can trust her."
He then turned to Rogue as they let him go, "It's okay. You can tell them what happened." After a moment she did, she even lead them to the lab where it happened, "This is where it happened."
"If you've hurt him, I'm gonna..." Cyclops warned her. Sora stood in the way, "Scott, even if she did hurt him, it was an accident! There is no need for volience." Rogue added, "You start threatening me and you're never gonna find your friend. I'm only helping ya because Sora's my friend too."
"Yeah, take it easy, Cyclops." Jean told them. Forge and Kurt watched as the events happened. Kurt walked to him even though he knew he could hear him, "Yeah. Just like I'm always telling you." Sora then asked, "Kitty, Evan, have you figured out how to work that thing."
"Yo, guys! We've been running a diagnostic on this thing." Kitty nodded. Evan nodded, "Can you believe it? It uses CP/M! I mean, talk about retro, man." Kitty added, "It's putting out some kind of, like, steady low-power pulse wave that just seems to disappear into thin air."
"And that means what exactly?" Scott asked. Evan simplified, "We figure that the pulse has trapped the Crawler in some other dimension." Sora realized, "That's why I could sense as if he was here or not! He's probably in this very room just in another deminsion." Jean turned to him, "You could... Sense him."
"Ben suggested it to me." Sora explained. Evan wondered, "Who's Ben?" Cyclops explained, "He's this old man, who's been helping us out every now and then. He knows about the mutants."
"Yeah...for an old guy, he's like actually tottally helpful." Kitty smiled. Kurt and Forge beamed with hope as Cyclops nodded, "Okay. So let's trash this thing." Forge paniced, "No, no! They've got it all wrong! If they destroy the projector, we'll be trapped here forever!"
"Everyone stand back. I'm gonna use full power. This could get messy." Scott warned his friends as Evan set down the device. Kitty offered, "You know, I could just, like, phase through the gizmo and, like, quietly short it out." Everyone just stared at her, "Right. Forget I mentioned it. Like, what is it with guys and explosions anyway?"
"Forge, hurry! They're gonna nuke the projector any second!" Kurt exclaimed. When all of a shudden he heard Scott said, "Sora move! I don't want you to get hurt!" They turned to see Sora stood between Scott and the machine, "Scott, think for a second. If you destroy it, and your wrong...then Kurt could be stuck where he is forever!"
"Wow! Your spikey hair firend must be the rational one." Forge assumed. Kurt smiled, "No, but he does have his moments."
"Aw, man. Your right. What was I thinking?! I guess I got caught up in the moment." Scott scratched the back of his head. Sora smiled, "Nah, we guys. We like when things explode."
"See?! I swear these guys are, like, obsessed!" Kitty told Jean. Sora and the other began to laugh as Forge finished hooking up the machine, "Done! I think it'll make you visible for a second. But I was so rushed putting it together..."
"Just tell me what to do!" Kurt told him. Forge nodded and explained, "Push that button and teleport. Tell them not to destroy the machine. They have to reset it instead. But you've only got a second before the battery fries."
"Right! I'm gone!" Kurt nodded as he telported back to the real world much to everyone's shock, "Wha?" Kurt quickly said, "Reset! Don't des..." But then he telported away. Sora excalimed, "Wait, Kurt, say that again! You guys saw that, right?"
"He's still alive!" Rogue nodded. Jean wondered, "What was he saying?" Evan assumed, "He said, 'Reset, don't.' You know, don't reset it. He wants you to blow it up! Do it!"
"Wait! It sounded more like a warning to me." Sora spoke up as Kurt was back in the Middleverse. Forge asked, "Do you think they'll get it?"
"I just hope they believe it." Kurt replied.
"A warning? From the goof-man himself? No! Come on, shred that sucker!" Evan encouraged. Kurt groaned as Forge muttered, "Man, you do have a rep."
"No. Nightcrawler's a joker, but even he knows when it's time to get serious." Sora pointed out. Scott nodded, "Your right!"
"Yes!" Kurt beamed. Scott continued, "If he wanted to blow up the projector why didn't he just say, 'Don't reset?' Instead of 'reset' then 'don't.'" Kurt nodded, "Oh, Cyc! You the man!" Sora nodded, "Guys, I think he wants us to reset this thing."
"Score!" They beamed as they gave eachother a high five. Scott observed the machine, "Intensity settings, power regulators, beam width, restart!" Scott pressed the restart button and beam fired again to show Kurt and Forge, Cyclops exclaimed, "Come on! Teleport through!"
"Hang on! Let's go!" Kurt told Forge. However, he replied, "We can't. The battery's tapped out. We need more juice to get us home."
"Look!" Kurt guestered the the shrinking portal. Forge explained, "The portal won't last much longer. It's now or never!"
"What's the matter? Let's go!" Cyclops called out. Kurt thought to himself, "Another power source?" That when it hit him, "I know! Come on!" Kurt then telported them away. Evan wondered, "What are they doing?"
"I don't know. But I hope they hustle!" Scott replied. "There they are!" They turned to see the Brotherhood, as Toad said, "And they still got that vape-ray I was telling you about." Lance told Rogue, "Rogue, Mystique sent us to find you. So you with us or them?"
"Mystique? You working for her?" Scott glared at her. Sora whispered, "Scott, I'm sure there a perfectly good explaintion for this but it'll be exclaimed later. Rogue get a little rough with us then walk away." Rogue gave a little nod without the others noticing, "Hey, you got your friends, I got mine. But this ain't my fight. I'm out of here."
"Okay. Fork it over, losers." Blob told them as Rogue left much to Sora's relief. Avalanche finished, "Or this place is gonna rock." He began to shack the room but the X-Men stayed their ground, Scott replied, "The projector stays with us. X-Men, keep that portal open!"
"Ha! Sounds like a Challege!" Quicksilver smirked. He ran at the portal device as Sora smacked him away just in time. Lance just shrugged, "Your call." He then stomped his foot on the ground shacking the building giving everyone a hard balance as the villains charged at the X-Men...
"Groovy ride! But where's this power source?" Forge asked. Kurt guestered to the car, "Check it!" Forge beamed, "Far out, man!"
"I swear, that homey's lingo is so wack!" Kurt muttered...
"Come on! Hit me with your best shot, slim!" Blob taunted. Scott fired sending him tumpling back but regained balance as he laughed, "Ha! Takes more than that to stop the Blob!"
"Thanks for the tip. Jean!" She nodded as Scott blasted the ground Blob was standing on as Jean used her mind to ripe it out of the ground causing Fred to crash to the ground. Lance walked up to Shadowcat, "You and me got a date, pretty Kitty. How about a ride on the concrete coaster?"
He then sent an avalanche sending her flying towards the wall. She quickly phased through it and came back in a battle stance, "Lousy ride, loser!"
"Come on! Come on! What you got? You ain't got nothing!" Toad taunted Evan, "That's right! You ain't got nothing!" He manged to hop around Evan and hopped his way toward the device but Spyke tree spiked ahead of Toad protecting the device and Toad slammed into it hurting himself. Evan smirked, "You call that nothing, you slimy SuperBall?"
"Ha! You can't hit me, little bro!" Quicksilver taunted as Sora swung his Keyblade at him, but he dodge all of this attacks. Sora then commanded, "Stop!" Just the Pietro as if he was paused. Sora was shock, he could control time too? Sora used the opportunity to knock him away. Pietro groaned as Sora replied with a smirk, "How was that, big bro?"
"You sure this will work?" Kurt wondered. Forge replied honestly, "No." Kurt signed, "Wunderbar." Just then more Unversed appeared, "Uh-oh! They're back! Let's hit it!" With that, they got into the car as Kurt floored it as he teleported them back to the portal with the Unversed after them.
As the X-Men stayed their ground, the Brotherhood got back on their feet as Blob said, "Okay, enough of the warm-ups. Time for some serious smashing!"
Just then they heard honking of the car, Scott turned with his eyes widened, "Look out!" With that everyone jumped of the way as Kurt and Forge drove through the portal and drove directly towards the brotherhood. The members quickly got behind Blob as it crashed into him. Blob signed in relief, "Whoa. Good thing I'm the Blob."
"Yeah, you can say that again." Toad nodded. Kurt quickly exclaimed, "Look out! Unversed!" Sora turned to the closing portal as the Unversed popped out before it closed. Sora quickly destroyed them all with his Keyblade before sealing the portal with his Keyblade. Seeing how the device was destroyed they decided to call it quits. Lance told them, "Come on, guys. This party's over."
"What the heck are these?" Forge wondered about the strange cushions the popped out when the car crashed. Kurt replied as he I unfasten his seatbelt, "Re-entry cushions. Cool, eh?"
Later that evening, Kurt introduced Forge to the others. Scott offered, "You're welcome to crash with us a while, Forge. Xavier's cool. You'd like him." Forge answered, "Thanks, but I better go find my parents. I'm 20 years late for curfew. Thanks for bailing me out."
"Hey, anytime." Kurt nodded and the gave eachother a fist bump. Scott told him, "Hop in. We'll give you a lift."
"No problem. It's just a few blocks." He reassured Scott. He nodded, "Okay." Sora added as he gave them their number, "But if you need any help, just call."
"Sure, I'll do that." Forge nodded as he headed home to his family. Everyone waved him goodbye. As everyone got in Scott's car, he told Kurt, "You're gonna have to duck until we can get you a new holo-watch." Kurt playfully gasped, "So it's true! You really are ashamed of me!" They laughed as Scott told Kurt, "Right, dude. Hey, listen. About what happened before. My bad."
"No. It was on me too." Kurt apologized as well. Scott told him "Maybe... Maybe you're right. I take things too seriously. I need to lighten up some." Everyone was shocked as Sora joked, "Oh, Scott, not you."
"Check his temperature. Mr. Military's going soft." Kitty added causing everyone to laugh. Kurt added, "Yeah. And I could probably dial down the goofing a little."
"Welcome back." He smiled at Kurt. He then told everyone, "Okay. So now what do you say we head home, gear up and run a level-three training sim in the Danger Room?" Everyone groaned except Sora. Jean muttered, "Give us a break."
"Oh, man! See? That's what I'm talking about. Always serious." Kurt added as Sora beamed, "Yes!" Everyone just stared at Sora as he just looked confused, "Oh...er... I mean... Lighten up, Scott."
"Psych!" Scott exclaimed causing everyone to laugh as Kurt commented, "You got us! Very nice. There's hope for you yet." Scott replied, "Yeah, well, tell me about it on the way to Duncan Matthews' party." Everyone smiled except Sora and Kitty, "Oh, we can't go, remember? We're, like, freshmen."
"Hey. You're also both X-Men. Don't worry. We'll make it happen." He reassured them. Kitty smiled as Scott told everyone, "Let's roll!" Sora then noticed something. He told Scott, "You guys go ahead. I'll catch up, there's one more thing I need to take care of."
"Alright... See you there." Scott told Sora as he got out of the car. They drove off as Sora walked back to the school, "You can come out, Rogue." Rogue stepped out behind the bushes, "So, is your friend okay?"
"Yeah, and we even bailed out a mutant that's been in there way longer than Kurt has." Sora replied. Rogue signed in relief, "That's good to hear."
"So, did you get introuble with Mystique?" Sora asked. She shook her head, "Nah, our act conviced your brother as well as the rest of them. In fact she was more mad at Toad than anything. Something about destroying her new car..."
"That's good. Hey, you want to come with us to Duncan Mathew's party?" Sora asked. Rogue replied, "Woundn't your friends worry your hanging out with someone who might be working for Mystique?"
"Maybe...but your my friend too. So, what do you say?" Sora asked. Rogue thought about before saying, "The last time, I went to a party...it didn't end well. You know of my powers."
"Then we'll hang out with smaller normal group away from the crowds of people. Like my friends Riku and Kairi?" Sora offered. Rogue shrugged, "Ah, what the heck! I'm in!" Sora beamed, "Awesome! Hey, look there they are now!" Sora and Rogue then walked to Riku and Kairi's direction. Riku noticed them, "Hey, Sora. We were on our way to Duncan's party. Wanna lift?"
"Yeah, oh, hey, could Rogue join us? She not to comfortable around other people and I thought see could use friends like us." Sora asked as Rogue walked up. Riku and Kairi turned to eachother and smiled, "Sure. Welcome aboard, Rogue. I'm Kairi and this is Riku."
"Nice to meet ya." Rogue shook each of their hands as they got in the car. Sora knew, tonight was going to be a good night...
