Disclaimer: Surprise, surprise... I don't own X-Men


An unexpected Arrival

"Eric?" Mystique asked, turning to Magneto.

"Yes?" Magneto turned to look at his best friend.

"I'd like to fight next, if that's okay." Magneto nodded his agreement, and Mystique walked towards, the Jean. "Will you be fighting next?"

Jean looked at Rogue, who nodded. "Yes, I will."

Mystique nodded, before punching Jean in the face. A red mark appeared on her cheek, where she had gotten hit. Jumping into the air, Jean kicked Mystique in the chest who stumbled back a few steps.

"What is it with you guys not following rules?!" Jean muttered.

"I don't play by rules." Mystique answered, changing appearances to look like Jean. She smirked.

"Which one is Jean?" Yuriko asked Rogue.

"I don't know." Rogue answered, looking just as confused as Yuriko. Suddenly an orange flow engulfed Jean. "The one who's glowing orange." Rogue answered sitting down in the snow, grinning.

"So, tell me more about the Brotherhood and the X-Men." Yuriko said, turning to Rogue and sitting in the snow as well.

Rogue told her about Xavier's school and his dream for peace between mutants and humans. She told Yuriko about Magneto and the Brotherhood and how he despised humans. Then she told the story of how her powers manifested and the incident on the statue of liberty. Then told her how Jean died.

"Wow." Yuriko said when Rogue finished her story. "Do you think this Xavier guy will let me stay with you?"

"I'm positive." Rogue said turning back tot he fight.

Jean was using her telekinetic powers to hurl rocks at Mystique, who was doing flips and dodges avoiding all the rocks. Jean was looking frustrated while Mystique just smiled.

"I've had enough of this!" Jean yelled.

Suddenly Mystique sunk to her knees, clutching her head. She was screaming in pain, while Jean just stared at Mystique not blinking. Jean was using her telepathic ability to put Mystique in pain. After a while Mystique collapsed to the ground not moving. Jean fell to her knees, putting her hand to the side of her head.

"Jean!" Rogue yelled running over to the X-Woman. "Are you alright?"

"Jean looked at Rogue. "Yah." She smiled. "Just a bit of a headache. I'll be fine in a minute.

"Impressive." Magneto called out to Jean. "You win this round." He was smiling.

Rogue turned back to Jean. "You don't have to fight anymore." Rogue said.

Jean looked surprised. "You can't fight five times in a row!" Jean said as calmly as possible. "We don't even know there powers. Trust me, I can still fight."

"Alright." Rogue was about to say something when the sound of a jet was heard flying over the lake.

Jean and Rogue recognized it as soon as they saw it. "The Blackbird!"

Magneto looked annoyed. "I thought I told you no contacting the others!"

"We didn't!" Rogue defended themselves. "They must have tracked me using Cerebro!"

Magneto was about to say something when a look of confusion crossed his face. "Did they know you were coming here?"

Rogue shook her head.

"Well you still can't leave until we finish this tournament." Rogue was about to ask something when he continued speaking. "And they can't help. Only you and Miss Grey can fight."
Just then the whole X-Men team came running over.

"What the Hell were you thinking kid?!" Logan yelled.

"We were like, so worried!" Kitty screamed as her and Jubilee hugged her.

Scott began to lecture her about leaving the mansion without telling anyone. Bobby and Kurt just looked relieved to see her.

Rogue looked at Jean and Yuriko. The team still hadn't noticed them. Rogue, Jean and Yuriko burst out laughing.

"What's so funny, Jean?" Scott asked. Then he looked back at Jean a look of shock on his face.

"Jean?"

"Jean?" Logan repeated.

"My Goddess." Storm breathed.

"Hello everyone." Jean smiled and waved at them. Everyone ran over to Jean and started screaming and hugging her. They all thought she had died.

"Jean, how-" Scott began to ask.

"I promise I'll tell you later. Right now me and Rogue are in the middle of something." Jean said. Giving Scott a quick kiss on his cheek. She turned and looked at Rogue.

"I'll go next." Rogue said to Jean. Jean nodded.

"Next for what, Chica?" Jubilee asked the question for everyone.

Magneto answered. "We're having a tournament. Yuriko, Rogue and Jean against us. So far they've taken out Pyro, Arclight, Multiple Man and Mystique. Yuriko fought Sabretooth but she lost." Magneto smiled menacingly. "Rogue you will face Callisto."

Rogue walked over to Scott. "I might need your powers later." She told him. She touched his neck briefly with her hand, then walked away. He wasn't knocked out, but breathing heavily. "Now, I'm ready to fight."

"No way as Hell your fighting, Marie!" Logan growled walking towards Rogue.

Jean made a shield around the X-Men. Logan hit the shield and he went flying back. "Just wait!" Jean told the X-Men. "Watch!"
