At first she tried to wriggle out of it, but she soon melted against his lips. Little did the both of them know that Rogue, Bobby and Kitty were watching from a window.

"Oh my god!" Rogue squealed, and started jumping up and down. "I knew that they liked each other!" Kitty and Bobby looked at her. "Well I did!"

Back in the Danger Room, Ororo and Logan were still in a lip lock. They both broke the kiss to catch their breaths.

"Wow." Ororo said, panting. "Does... this mean-"

Logan shrugged, smiling. "I guess so, 'Ro."

Ororo heard a loud squeal, and looked at the window to see Rogue jumping up and down, smiling, while Bobby and Kitty just looked at her. "Looks like we've got some spies."

Logan looked over to where she was staring at, and he smiled once again.

She received a telepathic message from the Professor. Ororo, you and Logan are needed in my office.


"I don't think we should bring the kids." Jean said to the Professor and Scott.

The three were sitting in the Professor's office. Logan and Ororo walked into the room. "Ah, Logan, Ororo... you're just in time."

Jean pressed a button, causing a picture of a woman pop up on the screen. "This mutant has been on the run for about five months now from the government."

"What are her abilities?" Logan asked.

"She can generate bright bursts of energy plasmoids from her fingertips." Scott explained. "It's a very dangerous power... if she blasted a human, she could kill them."

"Well, thankfully, we're not human... so she can't kill us." Logan told them.

Ororo shook her head. "She may not be able to kill us, Logan, but she could kill you. With the metal in your body, just a little shock could kill you." She turned to the Professor. "Maybe only Me, Jean and Scott should go."

"No." Logan objected.

Ororo glared at him, anger and concern in her eyes. "Logan, if she even touches you, she could kill you in an instant."

"I'll be okay, 'Ro." Logan told her softly.

Scott, the Professor and Jean watched this interaction in amazement, as they knew that Ororo and Logan usually argued for hours.

Logan never gave up that easily.

Jean and Scott knew that something was up. And they were determined to find out what.


The jet landed right near a peaceful, flowing river in a deep green forest. Exiting the jet, Logan, Ororo, Scott and Jean began searching for the mysterious mutant.

"How are we supposed to find her in this huge forest? It must go on for miles." Jean said.

Scott sighed. "Well, she has to be around here somewhere, the Professor sensed her at this exact spot."

Suddenly, a swift movement behind Jean caught Logan's eye. "Everyone be quiet, and don't move." They all stopped what they were doing. "There's someone in the bushes."

Jean rolled her eyes. "It's probably just an animal or something-"

"Jean, look out!" Ororo pushed Jean, sending them both to the ground.

"What the hell?!" Jean shrieked, but then noticed a mysterious teenager standing right in front of them, a bright swirling ball of energy floating at the tips of her fingers.

Ororo took in the girl's appearance. She looked Asian to Ororo, from the jet black hair and her unique brown eyes. Sporting a yellow trench-coat, the pink gloves that she was wearing stood out with her fashion choices.

The teenager girl was glaring at them. "What do you want? What are you doing here?"

Slowly getting up, Ororo backed away slightly from the angered teen. "Look... we didn't come here to fight, we just wanted to talk."

"How the hell am I supposed to believe you?" The girl snapped, and the energy ball in her hand began to get bigger. "How do I know that you're not lying to me?"

"If we wanted to kill you, kid, we would've done it by now." Logan said, and the others nodded in agreement. "We were just wonderin' of you wanted to go to a mutant school."

The anger that was in the teen's eyes suddenly softened, and the energy ball in her hand disappeared. "Oh."

"I know its kind of sudden, but we believe that its for the best. You would be able to develop your gift alot more easier at the institute." Ororo said to her.

The girl nodded. "I'm Jubilee." She held out her hand, and shook it. "Are you guys mutants too?"

Scott nodded. "Yeah... we learned to develop our powers at the institute as well."

"Let's see your powers, kid." Logan said.

Jubilee held out her hand, and it soon formed another blue energy ball the size of a baseball. Flinging it at a piece of wood, it burst into flames in seconds. Logan stepped back from Jubilee, knowing that she could kill him in seconds.

Jean sighed. "I guess we should be heading back now."

"So, are you coming?" Logan asked Jubilee, who nodded her head.

Ororo smiled. "Alright, lets go."


"Everyone, I would like you all to meet Jubilee... she's new here, so I expect you to treat her with respect." Ororo announced to her class, who all greeted Jubilee with a simple 'hello'.

As Jubilee walked over to the desks, she realized that the only seat left was in the middle of the room right next to a brown-haired girl with white streaks in the front. Sitting down, she smiled at the girl, who offered her hand. "Hi, I'm Rogue."

"Jubilee... nice to meet you." She replied, shaking her hand lightly. "I love your hair."

Rogue smiled. "Thanks."


As class ended, everyone exited the room, and Ororo walked over to her desk, cleaning up papers that were cluttered around on the top. She heard a soft knock, and looked up to see Logan standing in the doorway. "Logan, what a nice surprise."

He walked into the room, peering around for a second before looking back at Ororo. "Hey Ro'. How's the new kid holdin' up?"

"She's doing very well." Ororo answered. "She's adjusting quite well." Ororo, you and Logan are needed at Cerebro. The message echoed in her mind as it was sent to her from Jean. "We have to go... the Professor needs us at Cerebro."
