And the Maniac is back with another installment of Making Friends! Now I know my updates are random and all over the place and that's because I post right after I finish.
Also I don't own X-men Evolution or its characters, because if I did you would see way more ROMY and there would be new episodes

~Next Day 2:10~
Jean, Scott and Evan sat at one of the few tables that seat eight people.
"What do you think they look like?" Evan asked excitement evident on his face. He couldn't wait to meet their new friends in person.
*Ring*
The bell over the door sounded as two people walked in. One was an African American girl wearing red short-sleeve shirt with dark gray jeans and gray chucks. The other one was a man wearing a long sleeved sweatshirt the hood up, grey track pants, and dark blue chucks.
"Uh, Jean?" Scott asked.
"I'm checking right now." Jean paused. "Yeah that's Kurt." Evan stood up and shouted.
"Kurt! Over here, dude!" The man and woman turned and walked over to the table.
"Are you Evan?" Kurt asked in his heavy German accent.
"Yeah man, how'd you guess?" Evan asked
"Vwell, Scott said he has the special glasses, so I assumed you vwere Evan." Kurt looked around. "Is anyone else here?" Kurt said hoping his sister was already here.
"No, just us. I'm Jean, by the way." Jean said holding out her hand for him to shake.
"Uhm, nice to meet you." He said not shaking her hand.
*Ring*
Everyone's attention went to the door. Another young woman came in and she was dragging a young man behind her. "Come on Lance! Oh what do you think they look like?" Her perky voice practically shouted.
"Calm down Kitty." Lance said to his perky brunette companion.
"Yo Lance, Kitty over here!" Evan shouted again.
"Come on Lance!" Kitty shouted dragging Lance over to the table. "Hi! You must be Scott."Kitty said shaking Scott's hand. "Jean?" She asked the redhead. Jean nodded and shook her hand. "Evan?" Evan nodded and shook her hand. "And you two must be Kurt and Amanda."
"Yeah, nice to meet you Kitty. Who's the boy behind you?" Amanda asked.
"Oh this is Lance." Kitty sat next to Amanda and Lance next to her. Kitty opened her mouth and was about to speak when , but was cut off by a shout.
"Pietro I swear to god I will Hex your mouth permanently shut if you don't stop talking like that!" A woman with shoulder length black hair with red streaks shouted at a boy with pure white hair.
"Oh, Wanda, Pietro over here!" Kitty shouted waving them over.
"Hi I'm Wanda that's Pietro." Wanda said pointing to Pietro.
"Nice to meet you in person." Jean said.
*Ring*
A small brunette walked in and toke in a deep breath. She turned and walked towards their table.
"Are you Scott?" The brunette asked. Scott nodded.
"Who are you?" Jean asked.
"Laura. My sister will be here in a few seconds. She ran into some unexpected trouble." Laura said taking a seat.
"Is she okay?" Scott asked.
"Yeah just an annoying problem." Laura said.
*Ring*
A very pale young woman with brown hair and two white stripes entered the pizza parlor. She wore dark almost black jeans, a sports bra with a black mesh top on top, and black gloves. She walked straight over to their group.
"Hey Laura, this them?" She asked her southern accent reached their ears.
"Yeah, did you take care of your problem?" She asked.
"Yeah, but the stupid swamp rat won't take a hint." Rogue huffed. "Hi, Ah'm Rogue." Everyone introduced themselves except for Kurt. Kurt stood up.
"Hello Rogue." Kurt said anxiously. Rogue lifted her hand to shake his hand, but Kurt pulled her into a hug.
"It's good to see ya again, bro." Rogue said pulling away. "Now who's hungry?"
~After Lunch~
After lunch Jean drove Lance, Kitty, Evan, Scott, Kurt, and Amanda to the Institute in the eight-seater van. While Rogue drove her and Laura on her motorcycle. Once at the institute everyone gathered in the Rec. Room.
"So," Evan started. "What should we do?" Evan asked
"We could, like, show off our powers!" Kitty said excitedly.
"Yeah man! We should go down to the danger room." Evan said.
"Danger Room?" Laura asked. "What's the Danger Room?"
"It's where we train our powers." Jean said. "Come on, we'll show you." Jean, Scott, and Evan led the group down to the sub-levels and to the Danger Room. Jean typed in a pass code and led everyone inside.
"Danger Room activate training session one." Jean shouted and waited.
|Training Exercise one activated| A robotic female voice said. The once empty semi-dome turned into a large forest clearing.
"Nice." Pietro said. "So, who's first?"
"ME!" Kitty shouted raising her hand.
"Go right ahead, Kitty." Jean said chuckling at the younger girl's enthusiasm. Kitty walked over to a tree and walked right through it. She then walked through Scott and pulled in through another tree.
"Cool, huh?" Kitty said to Scott.
"Yeah, just please don't walk through me again." Scott said a little queasy.
"Oh sure." Kitty said with a smile. Next Lance an earthquake, Pietro picked Jean up and dropped her off at the other end of the clearing came back and then picked her up and brought her back, Wanda used her powers to have the branches picked up Pietro, Laura attacked a tree with her claws and demonstrated her heal abilities by run a claw down her arm, and finally Kurt removed has sweatshirt and gloves to reveal his elf form. He teleported all over the place and hung from branched using his tail.
"Cool, Kurt!" Kitty said. She looked at Rogue who was withdrawn from the group. "Hey Rogue, you gonna go?"
"Well Ah don't-" Rogue started, but was cut off by Kurt.
"Nien, please show us. Here you can borrow my power." Kurt said with a smile. He lifted his hand and held it out for her to grab.
Rogue bit her lip. "Well okay, but only a quick tap." Rogue removed her glove and held his hand for five seconds. She quickly jerked her hand away and watched as Kurt swayed, but stayed awake. Rogue began to feel funny and a little sick. She felt as if someone was poking needles into her skin.
"Rogue, are you okay?" Jean asked watching as Rogue's face showed signs of pain. Rogue felt as if her bones growing and shrinking.
"Wh-what's happ-penin' (happening) to m-meh (me)." Rogue stuttered. "M-make it st-stop."
"Laura, what's happening?" Wanda asked worried for Rogue.
"I don't know this has never happened before." Laura said feeling helpless at the moment.
"Look!" Kitty shouted pointing at Rogue. Rogue's skin went from pale to a dark blue, her eyes turned and glowed yellow, a tail grew, fur grew from her arms and legs, her hair grew to her lower back.
"Whoa." Was all anyone could say. Everyone was watching her and images of mobs, fire, angry villagers, and then images of her own demons of scientists and experiments.
*Bamph*
Rogue disappeared in a blue cloud of smoke.
"Rogue!" Kurt shouted.
~Maniac Productions~
Rogue sat alone with her head resting on her knees. The sound of wheels running over leaves alerted Rogue to someone's approach.
"Who's there?" Rogue asked getting into a defensive position.
"Please don't be alarmed, Miss Howlett." A gentle kind voice said. An elderly man in a wheel chair approached her. "My name is Charles Xavier."
"You own this school, right?" Rogue asked keeping her defensive stance. She strengthened her mental shields and watched him cautiously.
"Yes, did Jean or Scott explain to you about this school?" He asked.
"You already know that, telepath." Rogue said. Charles Xavier raised an eyebrow. "I felt you in my mind." She explained.
"I didn't mean to intrude, but I need to make sure you weren't a danger to my students. All I know is that you are a friend of Jean's. Plus, you have remarkable mental shields."
"No, I wasn't told." Rogue said relaxing slightly.
"Well, this school is a school for mutants. Here we, my colleagues and I, help mutants train their powers. If they decide they can join what my students have named the X-men." Xavier said as casually as if they were discussing the weather.
"X-men? As in a superhero group?" Rogue asked. 'Why can't I be normal?' Rogue thought.
"Yes, we go and we help others and we also stop other mutants from hurting others. You can stay here and we can help you learn control." A flicker of hope passed through Rogue's eyes, but quickly disappeared.
"Sorry Mr. Xavier, but I've been told that before and it came with a price. So, what's the catch?" Rogue asked harshly.
"Just for you and your sister to stay here."
"And my farther? Could he stay?" Rogue asked.
"Yes, I was actually hoping he could teach here." Rogue raised an eyebrow.
"Teach?" She asked incredulously. "Listen, Mr. Xavier, thanks for the offer, but my family we're drifters and we don't spend a lot of time in one place." Rogue said her tail swishing back and forth behind her.
"Please just consider my offer." Xavier said.
"Sure Ah'll talk to Laura and Logan." Rogue said. "If we do stay there are some things about our past that we just don't talk about." Rogue explained.
"I understand not everyone here has the best past, but that's what this place is about second chances." Xavier said kindly.
"Rogue, Rogue you out here?" Kitty's voice said from far away.
"I believe they're searching for you." He said with a slight smile.
"Yeah your right, bye Mr. Xavier." Rogue said.
*Bamph*
Rogue appeared right next to Kitty. "AHH!" Kitty screamed. She glared at Rogue who was chuckling. "Don't, like, do that!" Kitty said.
"Sorry, Kit." She said half-heartedly.
"It's fine. Hey, are you okay?" Kitty asked worried. "You left in a hurry back there."
"I'm fine…Katharine." Rogue said with a smirk.
"Oh that's it!" Kitty declared.
*Bamph*
Kitty looked to see Rogue at the other end of the yard. She ran after Rogue trying to catch her. Soon the others joined their game of mutant tag. Rogue occasionally tapped someone for their powers. Unknown to the teens a figure stood watching them. His focus on the girl with brown hair and white stripes and the girl with black hair and red streaks.
