A/N: Sorry I haven't updated lately. At my school, it's time for exams so my free time is limited. Stupid exams… -grumble- -grumble- The worst is over though! :) Thanks for the reviews. I intended for it to be a filler chapter and get the basic format of the room established :) Monday, luckily, is my last exam Does anyone else have exams?

I do not X-Men or the Britney Spears lyrics...as if you didn't know

I don't wanna dream about
All the things that never were
Maybe I can live without
When I'm out from under
I don't wanna feel the pain
What good would it do me now
I'll get it all figured out
When I'm out from under

"All of these hallways look the same!" A feminine voice cried out in an evident fit of confusion. Frantically, Andrea rushed about the multiple halls of the mansion, searching for the physics classroom. Her eyes were overshadowed with confusion and anxiety. Frozen in place, she shot all the doors a similar questioning gaze and opened multiple, only to be faced with a vacant room or some sort of cleaning closet.

'Last time I checked, institutes don't have this many rooms,' She thought with a hint of anger in her mind. Slowing down her pace to a fairly quick walk, she slightly glanced at the identical oak doors and cream-colored walls. Inwardly, she scolded herself for becoming lost so quickly.

'Who was the author of that note anyway? They could've at least given me some simple directions.'

She ran a hand throughout her bangs, as she came to, once again, another intersection of hallways. Sighing, she glanced left and right before she started down another hallway.

"I am so screwed," she muttered to herself and leaned up against the creamy wall. Sliding down the wall, she sighed, her body slightly relaxing. Putting her head between her legs, she stared at the beige carpet with a radiating stare of frustration. Her vision became slightly hazy as a few tears of frustration (maybe even fear) welled up in her eyes. Shaking her head slightly, the tears remained frozen in place.

Bamf!

Suddenly, Andrea furrowed her eyebrows in confusion, thinking,' what was that? It sounded oddly familiar.'

A slight migraine was beginning to form in her head, a distant throbbing. Lifting her head up slightly, she hazily averted her eyes to the left and slowly to the right, before slightly jumping and fixing her eyes firmly onto Kurt.

"Kurt? What the- When did you get here?" Pausing slightly between each word, her tone of voice gave away her sense of slight fear and cautiousness as did her facial expression. Turning around, he looked down and his eyebrows rose slightly.

"Andrea," He started with a surprised yet confused tone," Vait, vhat are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be vith Professor?"

A look of slight embarrassment crossed her face, her cheeks slightly darkening and she said," I am, but how did you do that?"

He stared down at her, pondering the question, his eyebrows barely furrowed and his jaw set firmly.

"How did I do- Oh!" He began with a slight murmuring before coming upon realization," You mean this?"

A devilish grin crossed his features before he suddenly disappeared in a cloud of blackish-blue smoke and a scent of brimstone filled the room. Scrunching her nose, Andrea coughed softly and stared at the spot where Kurt had once been and she sent a confused look around the room. Suddenly reappearing next to her left shoulder, crouching, he reappeared, giving her a wave. Stifling a cry of surprise from the sudden movement, she jumped away from the blue mutant, stumbling slightly and gave him a look as though he were crazy.

"Yes that!" She nearly shouted, placing her hand over her heart, feeling the racing organ.

'Give me a heart attack,' she thought.

Shrugging his shoulders, he lowered his head looking like he'd been reprimanded in some sort of way by her actions and said, "Well, obviously, I'm a mutant, and I can teleport."

'No duh.'

"Well," Andrea started, searching for the right words," That's..erm..interesting." She paused for a moment and shook her head briefly.

"I should really get to the Physics class before he doesn't want me here anymore. Any chance of you helping me out?"

Swiftly, she pushed herself from the ground and brushed herself free of any dirt or dust. She turned and with an attempted grace, she strut towards Kurt and held out her hand.

His golden eyes lingered on her hand momentarily. Once she realized the blank stare, she asked," Help you up?"

Slightly embarrassed, he muttered a brief 'Oh' and grabbed her hand.

Pulling him up, she asked," So what were you doing here anyways?"

He looked down the hallway. "Oh, Ororo's room is down there," He said, pointing his finger down the hallway.

Andrea stared at him and asked him, "So are you two dating or something?"

Flustered, Kurt stared at her with a baffled look. Inwardly, she smirked at the light blush that made its way across his cheeks.

"Vhat? No!"

Slightly smirking, she said slyly, "Really? Are you positive? You two are awfully close."

His cheeks darkened even further and she decided to give the poor guy a break. A silence began to settle until Andrea laughed at Kurt's speechless expression and softly patted his arm.

"I'm just messin' with you," Once again, she reached down, grabbing his hand and asked," So are you going to teleport me to the Professor or not?"

He paused for a moment, before saying," That may not be such a good idea, Fraulein."

"And why not?"

"Vell, for starters, teleporting may make you throw up."

She put her free hand to her stomach and reassured him that she had a strong stomach and she could handle it. Roller coasters nor any of the other mostrous rides at the amusement parks were a problem

"Besides I'm sure it's faster than walking and I think I've held you're Professor up for too long."

Slightly groaning, he murmured, "If you say so."

And like that, Andrea suddenly felt an urge to vomit pull at her stomach. It reminded her somewhat of flying, but flying gave her a nice, airy feeling contrary to a repulsive effect. After a few seconds, she truly feared she would puke. Luckily, the feeling only lasted a maximum five seconds When she felt her feet come into contact with hard, solid ground, her legs gave out, as though they were Jell-O, and she fell over. A slight pain shot through her hip but no damage was done.

Taking a deep sigh, she looked up at Kurt's face and gently laughed.

"Let's not do that again."

When he gave her a brief nod, she looked around the room and realized that the floors were tiled but the walls remained the same, beige color.

"Andrea, Kurt, nice of you to join us." The voice held an old-fashioned English accent to it that could soothe the devil himself. Andrea swung her head around and noticed the two other men in the room. One of them sat behind a desk, the other standing. She raised her hand and gave them a short wave, before quickly jumping to her feet. She gave a brief overlook of the two men. The one that sat behind the chair was bald with brown eyes that seemed to welcome her in. From what she could see, he was clad in a suit and tie, very classy.

'Must be the Professor,' She thought inwardly.

The other man, standing, had a rough appearance contrary to the one sitting. He had brown hair with matching brown eyes. His eyes, from what Andrea could tell, showed he had a tortured past which probably extended to unknown horrors she couldn't even imagine. He wore a pair of jeans with a white tank, completed with a dog tag necklace.

'Army?'

"Andrea, my name is Professor Charles Xavier," The man sitting in the chair started, backing away from the desk. To her upmost surprise, he was disabled and in a wheel chair. A wave of pity washed over her and she looked upon him with eyes of concern as he wheeled to where Andrea stood. Extending his hand, they shook hands and she looked over to where the other man was.

"And he is?"

"Logan," He answered for himself with a rough voice. Spinning around in his wheelchair, he said," Come, Andrea, Kurt. Have a seat. We have a lot to discuss."

Walking to a row chairs, she grabbed one and drug it until it was in front of the desk as did Kurt. The Professor held an inviting smile while Logan wore a grimace.

"Logan, this is who I told you about. She's the one who helped Kurt at the church."

Rolling his eyes, Logan muttered," Oh, Jesus, not another damn Catholic. One was enough."

'Jackass.'

In a flat tone, Andrea retorted," Bite me."

"Gladly," Logan said, shrugging his shoulders.

"Logan," The professor said in a warning tone," Andrea, I apologize for Logan's behavior. He is usually not this disruptive."

Inwardly, Andrea laughed at the comment.

"So, Professor, why exactly am I here?" She asked cautiously.

The Professor sighed and told her of Cerebro and how it detected her the night of when her family perished and the next night of when she was nearly raped, when she learned of her mutation.

"You see, this is a school mainly based on helping mutants learn control over their powers and I thought that maybe you'd like to join us. We can provide you with the rest of your high school education. Its okay if you reject-"

"I accept," Andrea interrupted.

"Now, Andrea, are you sure you don't want time to think about it?"

"I'm positive, Professor. I have no local family, no home, plus add the fact that I'm officially a mutant, I'm pretty sure I'd like to live here. But, oh, wait, I can't."

The three men stared at her, as she drifted off into a deep thought and she muttered," I'm broke."

Charles' smile widened as he told her tuition was free. Grinning widely, she jumped up from her seat and reached across the desk, hugging Xavier.

"Thank you so much!" She squealed with joy.

'I have a home!' She cheered on in her head.

"You're very welcome. Logan, why don't you show Andrea the kitchen? I'm sure she's starving by now," He said, giving Andrea a smile to which she blushed from embarrassment from her rumbling stomach.

Giving a deep sigh, the older man pushed himself from the wall and started towards the door.

"Come on kid," He muttered lowly.

Oh, God, she inwardly thought. This would be hell.

A/N: Voila! Here it is :) Sorry for how long it took! Blame the exams! Review please?
