Instead of replying... I pounced.
I pushed him to the ground and his head hit the floor, but he was still conscious.
"Kristin! What are you doing?!" Kurt yelled. But I couldn't really pay attention to anything except the vein in his neck. I quickly lowered my head to his neck and I sunk my fangs into it, knowing right where to bite, as if by instinct, I sucked a little blood, but then he transported to the other side of the room. He had his hand on his neck where I had bit him and yelled, "Kristin what are you doing?!"
I jumped over to where he teleported to in a second, but this time I pushed him into the shadows, how I did it, I don't know, all I know is now we were in the shadow world. He couldn't teleport anywhere now. I sank my fangs into his neck once again, not really aware of what I was doing. After I sucked about a half pint of blood I started realizing what I was doing. I heard Kurt yelling at me to stop. Then it hit me like a train. I had bit Kurt. I released him as soon as I realized this and covered my mouth with my hands. I looked at him. He was staring at me with shock. He had four holes in his neck, all made by me. I was horrified with myself. I hurt someone. Let alone someone who's been trying to help me. How could I have done that?
"Kristin..." Kurt said blankly, just staring at me with shocked eyes.
I started to cry. "I'm sorry Kurt," I said between sobs, "I couldn't control myself, I couldn't control what I was doing. I'm sorry!"
I looked down and continued to cry, I didn't dare look at him again, afraid that he would hate me. The next thing I knew, Kurt had come over to me and wrapped his arms around me in a hug. He whispered into my ear, "It's alright. I guess it's just your mutant power." Hearing him say that calmed me down a little. "I guess we'll have to help you control them."
"Wait, what do you mean, we?" I asked a little scared.
He looked at me a little confused and said, "Me and the other X-Men."
"Please don't tell the others! I don't want them to know I hurt you!" I started crying again.
"Alright, alright, I won't tell them, just please stop crying." he said. So I did, we just stood there a while. Then he said,"Kristin?"
"Yeah?" I replied
"How do we get out of here?" he said.
I looked around and realized we were somewhere that was kind of in the house but not, kind of like a shadow world. "Uhh... I don't know..." I said nervously.
He put his hand over his eyes and said, "Well you're the one who brought us here."
"I did?" I asked.
"Yeah! Don't you remember?" he asked.
"Not really." I said nervously.
"You're kidding right?" he said.
"No." I replied.
He sighed and said, "I guess we'll have to find a way out of here together." He grabbed my hand and said,"Don't let go, that way if one of us finds a way out we both get out."
We started walking, well, more like swimming, through the shadow realm. It was as though we were the walls of the mansion. Suddenly it seemed like I was being pulled, pulled into the real world. "Kurt!" I said. But before he could reply we were pulled into the real world.
We were in the hall a couple of yards away from the infirmary.
"That was weird." Kurt said.
We stood up and brushed ourselves off then walked back to the infirmary, I not daring to look at Kurt. Once there I got some band-aids out and put four of them on Kurts neck. He sat down on the bed opposite of me and for a while there was complete silence. Finially I said, "Kurt, I'm sorry, I seriously didn't mean to bite you."
"Don't worry about it, it's nothing, just a scratch." Kurt said.
"But how are we gonna explain it to the others?" I said.
"I'll just wear a turtle neck, speaking of which I'll go put one on now." Kurt said. And with that he poofed out of the room.
I waited about a not even five seconds when all the sudden three people in dark cloaks walked through the shadows into the infirmary and walked right in front of me! The one that was only about 7 inches taller than the shortest one, which I estimated was 5 foot 2 inches, said to me, "Hello ______..."
