LOVE THE REVIEWS! You are all so amazing and patient! Keep them coming! Just to warn you there might be little sour patches through this story. There's this guy who I thought I liked who has been a complete jerk to me. Luckily I have my other guy friends to defend me but I still need to get some of my feelings out through writing. So brace yourself, no couple is safe.
Kitty stood by Lance's locker as the other sleep deprived students of Bayville High passed her by. She was worried, really worried. Not only had Lance not called her but he hadn't picked her up for school and even though she was enraged she was also concerned.
"Hey Kitty," yawned Amanda as she opened her locker, "fun weekend or what?"
"Not exactly," Kitty said not harshly but not as enthusiastic as she usually was.
"Want to talk about it?" Amanda asked, "We could go grab some breakfast."
Kitty smiled half heartedly and said, "No way am I like eating school food. But I think I'll like go sit out front and wait for Lance. He's defiantly not getting the boyfriend of the weekend award."
"Well have fun, I better go find Kurt. See you at lunch."
And with that both girls parted, one happier than she could imagine the other sadder than she could ever imagine. One thing was certain that neither made it to their destination when the entire school began to shake.

"Non cherie dis sucks," Remy grumbled as he walked across the packing lot, his arm wrapped around Rogue's covered shoulders.
"It's not that bad sugah," Rogue tried to assure him. "Ah was expecting mah curfew to be at eight so midnight's not bad at all."
"Not nearly enough time to get anythin started."
"Common Swamp Rat," Rogue teased while nuzzling her head into his shoulder, "what happened to the whole ah can get a girl hot n heavy in a matter of minutes."
Remy smiled but grunted, "Dat wit any other girl cherie, I like to take time with my Roguey."
Rogue was about to snap back, she might have a boyfriend, and she might be head over heels for him, but she still had that fire of independence burning in her. Sadly she was interrupted when she noticed Lance just standing in the middle of he road.
"What's he doin, tryin to get himself run over?" Rogue questioned.
"Don know," Remy replied. He knew this wasn't good but he didn't want to say anything to Rogue.
Rogue was about to say something else when suddenly the ground beneath her began to shake and she fell with Remy to the ground.

Using as little of his power as he could while still fulfilling Mystique's demands, Lance extended his hands and used his powers to crack the schools wall. His target being the main wall that lead up to the Professors office but he couldn't help but inflict more damage than he intended.
He wanted to hate himself for the sake of Kitty, but something about the rush he felt in using his powers in public made him feel as he had never felt before which bot thrilled and scared him.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Professor was sitting in his office when the rumbling began and his wheelchair instantly fell over. It was times like these he hated not having the special chair Hank made him but there was nothing to be done.
Telepathically he called to Ororo for help but she was already trying to protect the students of her class. It was the same with Logan who promised to be there any second, but the Professor could sense his determination to help the students. Then Rogue wasn't in any condition to save him, she was the one that needed to be saved.
"Jean!" the Professor cried both out loud and in his mind. She was near, along with Scott and a few others. They needed to hurry; the Professor could already sense someone's presence coming down the hall.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kurt was quickly teleporting as many people as he could out of the school, they were all too afraid or dumbstruck to question him and Kurt wasn't really concerned about what others thought at the moment. This was his own mother's doing and even though she had ordered him to take hostages he couldn't do it.
He had always known Rogue was smarter than him, especially when it came to reading people, and for so many years he had been angry with her for always protesting against their mother, but now he understood and he wanted to find Rouge and save her. He also wanted to save Amanda, Kitty, Scott, and Jean, but there wasn't enough time.
Though Kurt was sure that Lance didn't mean to he was causing a severe amount of damage and someone was bound to get hurt. All Kurt could do was help those that he could despite the nasty glares he got from Pietro who was bound to tell on him.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Professor!" Jean cried as she ran through the shaking hallway of the top floor. Scott was behind her screaming her name, but Jean was oblivious to anything except the terrible cries pulsing through her head. She could sense something was terribly wrong and she didn't want to lose the only other person in Bayville who understood what she was going through.
As she came to the door of his office it was wide open and without hesitating Jean ran in. Before her she saw the Professor on the ground with a blue woman creator atop him, with one hand she was placing a thick yellow necklace around his neck while the other hand was tightly wrapped around his frail arm.
The blue woman looked almost afraid at first when she looked up and saw Jean, but seconds later it turned into an evil smile and next thing Jean knew she was being pushed with an unbelievable amount of strength against the wall.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lance finally loosened his hands and let them fall to his sides. He had done more than enough damage and watched as his fellow classmates ran out of the school with looks of petrified fear on their face.
He was smiling in triumph before he heard a sweet voice that made his blood run cold.
"Lance!" the voice cried again, only this time with much more anger than before.
When Lance turned around he saw Kitty, her hair a mess and her clothes ripped, stalk toward him.
"This is you isn't it!" she cried once again. "What the hell do you think your doing Lance! Someone's going to get hurt!"
"Kitty, I…" Lance began before he was cut off.
"No it all makes sense now! Your working with those other creeps aren't you? Don't you know they've killed people before Lance? Do you think this is some kind of game?"
Lance honestly had no response but if he had there wouldn't have been time to say anything because next thing he knew she threw a punch with unexpected force right at his face.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rogue's hear was breaking into pieces but there was no time for that. Despite the flood of emotions and memories that were coursing through her from the brief contact she and Remy had from the fall, the screams she heard from her fellow friends compelled her to get up and fight.
Of course one nasty little bug stood in her way.
"Hey there Rogue," said Toad who was perched on a nearby car. "Mommy says she wants you to come home like a good little girl…" Toad was about to continue on when Rogue suddenly turned around and instead of two green eyes peering at him they were blood red on black.
"Sorry dere slimy but I got better dings to do wit my time. Now can't we jus skip de whole moi kickin ya ass so I can actually go help some people," Rogue replied with her normal voice, only a totally different accent.
"Actually sweetie I'm the on here doing the ass kicking, so you better shut your trap or you'll be going home with a black eye!"
Rogue just smirked, "Den I suggest we get dis started."
