JD: FOR RECORD: I am not going to jump in on the X-Men lifestyle all at once. They slowly start to join everything including their 'love lives' when it gets there. Kurt OC doesn't show up for a while and same with Iceman's OC! Of course Bobby Fans might kill me after they find out HOW Bobby's OC shows up . . *Hides* I AM PRO ROGUE/WOLVERINE! ALSO this story is after X2 before X3! I know that's between 2003 to 2006 so that means by time 2014 comes along everything will be different? No just means that they are older but look younger! Plus Amma graduated at age of 15, that's 2010. Not that far off in truth. Most of the Mechies are already older than Amma, Sage, and Micky (when she shows up).
I DIDN'T DO IT!
I roll over in my bed and yawn. That wasn't the best sleep in the world but wasn't expecting it be either. We are in a new place with people we don't know. Somehow Ray, who is staying across the hall with Rogue, ended up in my bed. In the bed across from mine is Amber. She looks so innocent now, but she always do. Her hair thrown in her face and she looks so peaceful. I smiled at this as I climb carefully over Ray. I don't want to wake her up, she probably couldn't sleep which is how she ended up in here and in my bed. Amber kicks, a lot, in her sleep.
I went to the private bathroom and brush my teeth and hair. I looked out saw they were still asleep figure I got enough time to take a quick shower just can't wash my hair this time around. I grab a change of clothes and hurry with a shower. I really don't like making people wait if I can help it. After I got in and start to scrub I heard one of them wake up and sigh. Rinsing off I am happy I decide to take a quick one.
Jumping out I dried off and got dress fast. As I turn looking to the mirror I smile slightly. My hair is a slight mess but not horrible. I grab the brush running out as I look down at my clothes. My black Alabama shirt was an old one that used to belong to Sir. I started to wear it after a painting job I had to do and paint got over my shirt. I needed a new one to wear for rest of the day so the Lady gave me this one. I never got around to giving it back.
I walked out and put on my shoes, just plain running shoes. They are black with a blue streak on the sides. I pull the lip of them over my black jeans and tied them tightly. "We have to 'explore' don't we?" Amber asked grumbling about getting up. She like me hate mornings but I'm a better sport than she is over it. Just don't wake me up, let me wake up on my own.
"Yes we do." I answer her and smiled. She laid back till Ray came out wearing one of my shirts, little thief, and her own off black pants with a rip in one knee. It made when we were building something for the orphanage. Amber then got up and did her morning thing.
"Come here." Ray said motioning to the chair in front of a desk and I went sitting down in it. She brush my hair and smiled after she fix my bangs. I hate bangs in truth but kept them, but they are long, because of Ray. She loves hair. I swear if this girl really wanted be she could be a hairdresser.
After she fix my bangs and hair wouldn't fall in my face or annoy me to badly she smiled at her handy-work. "Thank you, Ray." I smiled to the slightly younger girl.
"You very welcome, Harp." She said softly pushing me. I got up and she hand me the brush. I brush her hair and she told me what I needed to do. In the end it was just a simple bun but it has braids on the side of her hair too, her bangs are longer than mine but not as long as her hair, though it's shorter than mine. My hair is shoulder length.
She can do just about anything, including putting short hair into a bun. She is just that talented. She slip on her plain black boots and tied them all the way up to the tip and smiled jumping up and around me. "I'm hungry." Amber said stepping out of the bathroom. She was wearing a white shirt with black looking tie-dye all over it. It goes from black, to light gray. I remember when we did that too. Mine came out looking pink when I wanted red.
"Well then, lets ask Rogue where we eat at?" Ray suggest shrugging. We walked out laughing and softly pushing each other. Rogue was already awake and waiting for us.
"I am supposed to show ya three around with Kitty but she ain't coming." She stated in a slight foul mood. She has a city accent with a country one mixed into it. Maybe she hangs out with someone who have a country accent and it mixed with her city one? Or she could be a country girl who being around city people mixed with it. Not going to try to figure it out.
" Well then, first can we stop to get food?" Ray asked smoothly. Amber is being shy and trying to use me as a human shield, no surprise, and Ray is relax, laid back, and enjoying the moment.
"Lets, please." Amber mumble but loud enough for Rogue to hear her. Rogue nod and we walked downstairs.
"Kitchen this way." She told us leading us down a hallway and we saw a din area where a kid was watching T.V. "Some of the kids go to school here, others to the public school." She said as she look to the boy. She then lead us forward.
"So how many kids here?" I asked curious now. I am a teacher, in training. Rogue looked back at me and smiled lightly.
"I believe-" She was cut off by a scream. It was a guy but he sounded pissed. The next thing I know is I smell sulfur? It came from a blue smoke that from around close to us.
"Rogue!" An thick German, or maybe Russian, accent came from the smoke.
"Kurt! What you do?" She screamed at him but before he could answer he poof in another cloud of smoke and a man made of ice, or so it looks, came sliding down the hall and looking around.
"Kurt!" He screamed for the other man. "Damnit, you blue elf!" He scream again but nothing so he went running past us as he looked for the 'blue elf' as he called the man I didn't have time to see. The look the man in Ice and Rogue shared was one of love and hate. He looks like he loves her but she hates him. I wonder what he do.
I shrug it off, not my business. I'm curious but not my business in truth. I follow her as we got to a kitchen, it was good size and look really nice to cook in. Amber and Ray eyes brighten up seeing it and look to me. I knew without my so call gift what they wanted. They want me to cook.
"Do I have to?" I asked slightly whining. I love cooking but I don't like doing it on demand.
"Please." Both of them said at the same time with these huge eyes rocking on their feet like little kids wanting something. I just sigh and look to Rogue.
"Is anyone allowed to cook?" I asked and she nod. She leaned against counter as she watch me start to work. I made with in the hour, enough food to feed a small army, that what I see those two as. Rogue even sat down and eat with us. A poof of blue smoke showed up with the sulfur smell and this time when it cleared out I saw yellow cat-like eyes with thin pupils. He's blue with these designs all over his skin. He moved and a tail, devil's tail, wrap itself around a chair pulling it out as he flop down.
"May I join vou?" he asked with his accent. Though I should be scared. He looked like a beaten up puppy. How can you say no to those big innocent eyes? Wait, I can but won't.
"Sure." I said shrugging. "I made enough, maybe. Depends on how much the two bottomless pits will eat before their jaws start to hurt." I stated which got a fork being stab in my direction by Amber. I laugh moving out of her reach and stuck my tongue out at her. Ray open her mouth to say something but I stuck a roll in it. "No talking with your mouthful!" I fussed at her and she laugh silently and ate her food.
"You three sure do know each other." Rogue laugh at our sister like actions.
"Yeah, well years of living with Amber and over the year Ray kinda just merge with our craziness." I stated shrugging off whatever that was meant to be.
She smiled and nod her head. "Kurt, what you do to Bobby this morning?" Rogue asked the blue man as I notice his hands are different. Where five fingers should be only three and they are bigger than regular fingers.
"Put him on the roof in nothing but his boxers." Kurt grin. Rogue laugh and cheer up a lot.
"Thank you, Kurt!" She said. It looked like she wanted to hug him but didn't. He nod his head and smiled out. His sharp shiny teeth look so cool. So does Rogue hair style, a white streak of hair in her brown.
"Rogue, how did you do the white in your hair?" Ray asked after she finish eating her eggs, bacon, and two rolls.
"Actually I didn't do it. I was kidnap and my kidnapper's plan backfire, this was what was left of it." She answer in her own little world.
"Oh. Sorry." Ray said slouching some which got a pop from Amber for. Ray sat straight up and glare at the other one of us. "Not funny."
"Rude." Amber said back then started on the 'I can sit how I want to fight' I so kindly tune out talking to Rogue and Kurt.
"So why you put him on the roof in his boxers?" I asked Kurt as he finish off his plate. He smiled a sad one.
"He hurt someone I care about." He admitted his accept seems to get thicker when he doesn't concentrate on speaking English.
"Oh." I said and I look to Rogue who was still in her own little world. I smiled weakly and then tap my hands on the counter. "I should clean up the mess I made. If you please, pile the empty plates with silverware on top I will was them after pots!" I said changing subjects. They did as I said, Kurt and Rogue actually looked interested in what I am doing. After I wash the pots and pans I went straight to the other dishes and finish them off and put them away.
"Okay, you do know we have a dishwasher and besides that it's not your turn to wash dishes. If I remember right it's Spike's which where is Evan?" Rogue asked turning to Kurt.
"He said something about vanting to see a certain girl." He said with a shrug. I smiled to them and shrugs.
"We had a schedule at the orphanage but I always clean up my own messes. It was something that I guess you can call OCD or whatever." I laugh slightly. Amber and Ray both stop arguing to listen in to us.
"She once gave a stray dog a bath just so it could sleep in the garage till a snow storm passed." Amber conform my OCD suggestion to cleaning up my own messes.
We all got up and Kurt end up showing us around with Rogue. It was fun most of all when he started to speak German to us. Amber loosen up when it was just us, Rogue, and Kurt. She likes them and is comfortable around them. This means she's expanding her circle, even if it's barely so.
When we got outside we stop as a boy with light brown, kind of dirty blond, hair stood in front of us. He shot ice at us and Kurt grab hold of my and Amber's arm cause it was coming straight at us and poofed. When we land I felt dizzy and sick. I saw Amber lean forward on to a tree? Wait we weren't near any trees.
"Sorry about that." Thick accent said and I turn to Kurt. He looked so worried at us. "I didn't have time to varn you and first time people in a jump tend to get sick." he said sadly as he look between us.
"You are fine, Kurt. Was that Bobby?" I asked as Amber straighten up. She was fine now, I think.
"Yes." He looked down at his leg. "I need to go to Dr McCoy." I looked down at his leg too and saw that the ankle to kneecap was frozen solid.
"Can you poof there?" Amber asked looking over him worry. "Truk will be okay?" she asked me and I took a breath. She's worried, very worried.
"Truk?" he asked turning between us.
"You, she tends to say names backwards." I answer him and got down to my knees and tap on his leg. He howl out in pain. "I don't think he can move it very well. Go get Rogue and help." I told Amber and stood up helping Kurt lean against the tree to balance out. He's in pain and I don't know what to do. How can I? I dealt with frost bite but nothing like a limb frozen solid like this.
A few minutes past and Rogue, Bobby, and the girls came running around the back of the building and to us. "I sorry, I am." Amber said out of breath to Kurt and she fell to her knees out of breath. She's not use to running so much. She's a janitor though so she's good with cleaning up messes.
"Don't be. It was my fault. I thought he would dodge it and end up somewhere else." Bobby said helping Kurt to balance. Rogue took a step back.
"I can't touch him. It'll hurt him." She told me when I gave her a confused look. "My touch hurts others, that's my power." She explain and then turn to us. Ray jump in where Rogue couldn't and took Kurt's other side. I was right behind them with Rogue and Amber beside me still whimpering about this being her fault. I tap her on the shoulder and shook my head. "Darling, it's not your fault if anything it's Bobby's." Rogue step in for me and I smiled to the girl.
"Hey, I thought he would dodge it. How could I know that he would take two people with him!?" Bobby yelled back at Rogue. We got to an elevator finally. It felt like forever but probably been a few minutes. Rogue pressed the top button which says 'B' wait B as in basement?
"Why we going to the Basement?" I asked as I help Kurt to lean against the wall with the two that was helping him walk.
"That's where Hank's lab is." Bobby answered for Rogue.
"Beast will patch him up." Rogue said over her shoulder not looking at Bobby.
"Yeah. Beast." Kurt grunts. "Haven't seen him in a while." He stated. A few minutes pass and the door open and we helped Kurt out.
"Hank!" Bobby scream and a big blue man who looks like an animal came out of a closed-door and eyes went wide.
"What happen to Kurt?" he asked in a slight panic and held door open for us as he pull on a lab coat. He seems so professional but he's a big blue furry dude! Amber stop for a moment in stun then shook off whatever daze she was in.
"Um. I kind of iced him." Bobby answered. "He locked me on the roof in my boxers!" He declared as if that fixes everything.
"Listen to me you asshole, he did that because you hurt someone he cares about." I snap at him and I know I was channeling someone else's anger now. "You want to be an ass and not take a joke, a prank if you will so be it but it doesn't mean you get to shoot ice at him and innocent bystanders!" I scream and then I got dizzy. This time Hank, Beast, caught me and place me on the bed next to Kurt. "Ouch." I said under my breath.
A bit later Hank did something to Kurt and his leg was numb completely. I fell asleep, the dizzy spell still over me. I woke up and Hank was hanging upside down on the ceiling watching Amber and Ray carefully. He looks mildly entertain. "I didn't do it! I swear I didn't!" Ray told Amber who was laughing at her. "You are so mean!" Ray pouted and cross her arms like a kid who didn't get what they wanted.
"Yar, will be fine." Amber said softly shoving her and Ray smile leaning back on to Amber.
"Yes. Yar, will be." She stated.
