Scott, Jean, Kurt, Kitty, and Evan walked back into the mansion tiredly. They had had a field day trying to explain to the cops that they had no idea what had happened in the mall. The police had persisted though and wanted to know why they hadn't been frightened and hadn't run away. This they couldn't really explain. Finally though, after a lot of attempts to convince the police that they were just another innocent bystander to whatever happened to shake the whole place and cause things crashing to the floor, they had let them go.

It hadn't helped the whole time either that their minds were almost completely distracted by the previous events of the day. Kitty couldn't stop thinking about the two hot guys that worked for Magneto. The third one hadn't been so bad, she just wished one of the other two had been the one to flirt with her though. Jean was so perfect! That cute and sexy accented male had went for her! 'How unfair!'

Jean was lost in thought about much the same thing. The handsome Cajun. His ruffled red tinted dark brown hair and muscular build defiantly had caught her attention. The accent had really finished it off. It was too bad he was working for the enemy. That had been a definite disappointment.

Scott was jealous of the Cajun. He had been flirting with 'his' girl! But then again, he couldn't deny that the Goth girl hadn't caught his attention, for she had. He just had a thing for green eyes he guessed. She was the enemy though.

Kurt was just tired and hungry. Sure he was jealous, but now that the red head pyromaniac turned out to be the enemy, he didn't worry too much about Kitty's romantic thoughts to turn to him. But as he thought about it, Lance was an enemy too.

Evan was dumbfounded basically. They had all just laid there staring as the brother hood and those strangers fight. Somehow that pretty Goth girl had gotten the Brother Hood upset. Upset enough to take her on in the middle of a mall. Her teammates had stuck up for her though and they had all easily taken the brother hood on and beaten them. He wouldn't have suspected them for working with Magneto, but they had.

The five of them walked silently up the steps. Once they got inside, Xavier, Ororo, and Logan were waiting.

"What took you so long?" Logan demanded.

Scott shook his head. "Trouble at the mall."

"Like?" Ororo asked.

They then began to explain everything that had happened. Well, excluding the parts where Kitty and Jean were flirted with.

"So Magneto has a new crew?" Logan asked in a dangerously low voice. "Consisting of Sabertooth!" He finished, his claws coming out of his hands.

"Logan!" Xavier said quickly.

"Professor?" Jean asked suddenly.

"Yes?" He questioned her.

"Wouldn't cerybro have picked up on their mutant signatures?" Jean asked.

Xavier shook his head. "I'm afraid not. There has been so many lately that cerybro cannot detect them all. These few must have evaded me. Of course, Sabertooth not including. I've known he was a mutant for a while of course. I can however, find out about these mutants using cerybro. Even if I cannot trace them. I'm sure Magneto has them well hidden." Xavier replied.

Ororo nodded. "Yes, why don't the five of you get some sleep, you look exhausted."

Jean, Scott, and Evan nodded, but Kurt shook his head. "No vay man! It's only around four-thirty! I need food!"

"We like, were just in the food court. Remember?" Kitty asked annoyed.

Kurt nodded, "Ja, I remember. All zis excitement makes a guy hungry though!"

Scott shook his head and turned to Xavier. "Just make sure you wake us up once you find more information on those mutants. I think we have a right to know."

Xavier nodded. "Of course Scott." He then left the room, heading for cerybro.

At around six thirty the five mutants were called into the rec room to talk to Xavier. Logan, Hank, and ororo were there too.

Once they were all seated, Xavier set down a file. "I have found information on our new enemies." He informed them, opening up one file. He took out a picture of Colossus and handed it to Scott who was the closest to him. "Piotr Rasputin, eighteen. He's originally from Russia. I believe his power to turn himself metal arouse around seven to eight months ago." Xavier explained as the picture was passed around, although they already knew what he looked like.

"Uh, professor." Kitty blushed as she said this. "Could we like, keep the pictures. You know, so we remember next time!" She quickly covered.

Kurt gawked at her and Scott just glared.

Xavier chuckled. "Go ahead Kitty. I have no need for it." Kitty quickly nodded and folded the picture, then placed it in a pocket. Xavier then pulled out another picture and handing it to Scott.

"John Allerdyce, seventeen. Originally from Australia, his powers to control fire arouse around nine months ago." The professor continued. When the picture of the teen made its way to Kitty, she quickly folded this one as well and hid it in her pocket.

Xavier pulled out another picture and handed it to Scott. "I couldn't find out too much about her. She goes by the name Rogue and I haven't found out her real name. I was, however, able to trace her guardian. Apparently Mystique adopted her. Her powers manifested a long time ago. She gained her powers around the same time as you did Kitty. My only explanation as to why cerybro hadn't pick up her mutant signature previously would be that Magneto hid her. But that also must mean that he knew she would become a mutant." Xavier pondered this thought.

"She's my adoptive sister zen?" Kurt asked suddenly. Everyone looked at him as they realized that this was true. Kurt was currently holding Rogue's picture in his three fingered hand with surprise.

"That's right Kurt. She's seventeen and her power makes her incapable of human contact. When her skin touches someone else's she takes their memories, physical abilities, and in the case of a mutant their mutant ability. Though the contact could kill the person she touches." He finished. The room remained quiet as they watched Kurt. He still hadn't passed the picture on to Evan, and it didn't seem as if he would.

"Kurt?" Kitty asked.

Kurt looked up. "Oh, sorry." He said quickly, folding the picture and putting it quickly in his pocket.

Xavier took out yet another picture and handed it to Scott. "Remy Lebeau, twenty-one. He comes from Louisiana, New Orleans. His ability to kinetically charge any item to explode on impact or to the point it disintegrates the objects appeared about six months ago. Though his powers only appeared about six months ago, he has had those discolored eyes since birth."

"So that's why he wore the sunglasses the whole time." Scott pondered. He hadn't noticed Jean tuck the picture into her jean pocket.

Xavier nodded as he pulled out the last picture and handed it to Scott. "I don't believe I need to explain 'him' to you."

Scott had quickly passed the picture to Jean. She quickly passed it to Kurt, who passed it to Evan, who passed it to Kitty, who quickly passed it to Logan. His response to the picture was simply to rip it up with his claws. "Sabertooth!" Logan muttered venomously.

Xavier nodded. "Mmmm." He replied. "We'll have to watch out for these five. No doubt that Magneto has some scheme for them to complete." Xavier warned them, before dismissing them. They all stood and walked out.

"Hey Kurt, like, how are you doing?" Kitty asked him as they walked out of the room.

"Fine! Why?" He asked.

"Well, you seemed a bit, well, I don't know. Hey, can I see that picture of Rogue? Other then when the Brother Hood was hassling her, I didn't really even like, notice her." Kitty questioned.

Kurt nodded and pulled forth the picture. Kitty looked at it. "So it's your sis then. Or, uh, adopted sis, sorry."

Kurt shook his head. "It's okay." He then laughed slightly. "Vell, at least I know I have even more family. Ze more ze merrier."

Kitty blinked. "And it like, doesn't bug you that they're all psycho maniacs trying to like, totally take over the world?" Kitty asked in amazement.

Kurt shrugged. "If I thought like zat, zen I'd drive myself crazy!" Kurt replied with a small grin.

Kitty shrugged.

"And I see you've kept two pictures." Kurt teased her, though you could tell that he was jealous.

Kitty blushed. "Yeah, and I like, never even got to look at that Gambit guy!" Kitty whined.

Kurt laughed at her. "Does Kitty have a crush on ze enemy?"

Kitty pushed him slightly. "Yeah! Lance." She said dreamily.

"Oh! Get a room!" Kurt said, then 'bamf' he was gone.

Kitty coughed and waved at the air in front of her tying to get rid of the sulfuric smelling mist he left behind.

"Again! Yo, I can't believe she got us again!" Todd complained as he hopped up the door of the BoM.

"Shut up Toad!" Blob said, bending down to quickly snatch the teenager up by the back of his shirt.

"Hey! Let me down!"

"Shegotyou! Notus!" Pietro pointed out, poking Toad in the head. "My dad, hasanewgroup?" Pietro groaned as he zipped over by Lance. "Ican'tbelievethis! AndIdidn'tknowaboutit!" Pietro complained, now zooming up to the door of the brother hood house and opening it quickly.

"Yeah! I can't believe him! The nerve of that guy! He called us a liability!" Lance complained angrily.

"What's a liabilility?" Blob asked confused.

"Grah! Never mind!" Lance replied. He was too upset.

As they walked in, they saw a figure waiting by the stairs, one arm slung on the railing.

"Mystique?!" They all asked in unison as they came to an abrupt stop. Fred dropped Toad and he quickly got to his feet.

"What are you doing here? Is that you?" He asked, jumping toward her and getting awfully close to her face.

Mystique raised her knee into his gut then threw him to the ground by the Blob.

"Yup, it's her." Todd groaned. (A/N: Yes, I stole that idea from the show! I know!)

"What are you doing here?" Lance asked, putting his hands on his hips.

"I'm here to tell you to be prepared! Oh, and CLEAN UP MY HOUSE! You pigs! I can't believe this!" Mystique scolded, looking around.

"Bepreparedforwhat?" Pietro asked.

Mystique began heading for the Brother Hood house door. She stopped at as her hand rested on the knob. She then turned at the waist to look at them. "Revenge!" She replied, and walked out.

^_^ I see most people like the tampons part. I was hesitant about writing that, but decided to anyway. I just thought that it might be a little disturbing, but it was just too great. lol.

CuRsEd: Have no fear! Remy's going to have to try really hard! He might make some slight success, but she'll defiantly make things really difficult for him! *evil grin*

Guidi: Thanx for confirming the whole Remy touching Rogue thing! ^_^ And yes, I did know that Rogue could touch Piotr when he's in metal form (the show got it wrong! That made me SO mad! My friends and family defiantly heard about that! lol) but in a club I joined for a short while, they point out that kissing him in his metal form would be like kissing a refrigerator. lol. And anyway, those two already have a slight relationship. I'm making him the friend type thing. lol. Or. brother/sister type thing I should say. lol.

Yumiko: *Scolds* Yumiko! No hitting innocent bystanders! That's just cruel and evil! ;P

UnknownSource: Yup, the static electricity is valid; it was used in the comics. So was the magnetic field, and so is Rogue being able to touch Colossus in metal form. ^_^ Glad you learned something new! Oh! And you said I have funny parts scattered through them?! Yay! I'm not just being lame! If your wondering why I say that, it's because I am the queen of lame jokes. Just ask anyone who lives with me. lol.
