"Are you a mutant?" Kitty asked.
I hesitated, unsure if I was a mutant or not. "I don't know." I finially said.
"What do you mean you don't know?" Jean asked calmly.
"I don't remember anything." I said.
"Well... what do you know?" Jean asked.
I sat up and hugged my knees. "I... I only remember that I escaped from somewhere. And that after I did, some people who call themselves, The Military, started chasing me. That's all I remember." I said.
"Better get Kurt and Spyke back here, looks like we found her." Scott said.
"I'll call them." Jean said.
She put her hands to her head and contacted them. In a second they appeared in a puff of blue smoke, which, to be honest, made me jump a little.
"Is that her?" Kurt asked.
"No, it's the wife of the president." Spyke said with sarcasm.
"One more snap like that and you won't get an allowance next month." Scott said sternly.
"Alright, break it up you two, let's just go home before we scare her anymore." Kitty said.
I wondered what she meant by that, but then I realized, I kinda scooched myself into a corner.

The Ship (Flying)
Kitty walked back to where I was sitting and sat down beside me.
"Are you okay? I mean, like, you fainted when we found you, are you okay now?" Kitty asked.
"Yeah." I said blankly.
Why did I faint? Was I running away too long to realize I needed to rest? Did I get hit with a tranquilizer dart? I don't know maybe-
*Rrrrr-rumble* My stomache rumbled.
I blushed. Kitty laughed.
"Let me guess, you're hungry?" Kitty asked
"I guess..." I said.
"Well when we get home we can get you something to eat." Kitty said.
"Where is 'Home'?" I asked curiously.
"It's the Xavier Institute. Didn't anybody tell you? There are a bunch of other mutants there who are learning to control their powers." Kitty said.
"But I don't know what my powers are, or even if I have any." I said.
"Don't worry you most likely do have powers and we'll figure them out together." Kitty said.
"Thanks." I said.

The Mansion (Xaviers office)
So this is home? Pretty big place to call home.
"Hello Kristin." Mr. McCoy (Beast) said coming in the office.
I jumped a little cause I didn't know anyone was coming in. "Uh, hi." I said.
"Kitty told me you were hungry so I brought you some snacks and tea." he said putting the tray down on the coffee table in front of me.
There was one turkey sandwich, one ham sandwich, and some jasmine tea. "Are you going to eat anything?" I asked.
"No, and besides you probably haven't eaten in a while so eat up." he said.
"Thanks." I said.
I picked up the ham sandwich and started to eat.
"The professer isn't going to be back for about a week so after your done eating I'll show you to your room." He said
I took a sip of tea and said, "Why isn't he going to be back for a week?" then I took another bite of my sandwich.
"Because he's visiting an old friend of his." He said.
"Oh." I said between bites, than finished the sandwich off. Then I took a sip of tea and said, "I'm done."
"You sure? You only had one sandwich." He said.
"Ya, I'm not that hungry." I said.
"Okay then, follow me and I'll show you your new room." He said.

My New Room
"Uhh.. It's kinda big." I said.
"Everyones room is this big." Mr McCoy said. " Anyway, Kitty put some clothes in the drawers for you until you can buy some clothes."
Hmm, I'll have to thank her.
"If you want to, you can look around the mansion." He said.
"Thanks." I said.
He leaves so I go over to the dresser and look through the clothes Kitty gave me. I look through the drawers and find a purple t-shirt, with just plain jeans, and change into them. Then I walk over to my mirror. My long red hair's a mess, and it's covering my blue-green eyes, so I spend ten minutes looking for the brush in my room. Turns out it was on the dresser. Then I spend five minutes fixing my room.
I open my door and look into the hallway and no one is there. So I leave my room to do a little exploring. I walk down the hall and walk around the corner and just as I do I run into someone.
"Oh! I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bump into you." I said quickly.
"It's okay. Hey, you're that new mutant. You might not remember me, but my name is Kurt, I was one of the people on the ship you were on." he said.
"Oh, umm hi." I said.
"What are you up to?" he asked.
"I'm exploring the mansion so I'll be able to find my way around." I said.
"I can show you around if you want." He said.
"Well if your not busy, that would be nice." I said.
"Don't worry I'm not busy so let's go." He said.
"Okay." I said.
"So, what do you want to see?" He asked.
"Huh?" I responded.
"You know, do you want to see the kitchen, the dining room, the rec room?" he asked.
"Umm how about the grand tour?" I asked.
"Okay, Let's start in the kitchen." he said.
He grabs my wrist and the next thing I know I'm in the kitchen surrounded by blue smoke.
"What the?!" I said confused and dazed.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you I'm a teleporter. I can teleport anywhere!" he said.
"That's... that's... freaky. No offense or anything." I said.
"None taken?" he said, "I'm just surprised that you don't think I look freaky."
"Nah, you look cool." I said.
"Thanks." he said with a huge grin.
After Le Grande tour we ended up at the elevator.
"Where's this lead to?" I asked curiously.
"You'll see." he said
