(A/N: Yes, I know I shouldn't be starting another multi-chapter with An Unexpected Visitor still in progress-albeit slow progress. This story is dedicated to Meryl because she inspired this and helped co-write. She also inspired Poom. Just a sidenote: Poom and Lara are my OC's. The X-men will be in this story, just not entirely at first.)

Disclaimer: I don't own X-men: Evolution, kurt, or his awesome accent. I do however own Lara, Poom, and her currently-remaining-nameless cousin.


"Augh!" Poom screamed once outside the high school building. "It's almost the end of the year! You'd think the teachers would lay off homework!"

Lara shrugged. "I probably have more than you. AP Latin is torture this year."

Poom raised an eyebrow. "But it was your choice to take it…"

Lara sighed "I know. But…. Isn't that your cousin over there?"

Poom looked where Lara was pointing. She nodded. "Yeah. Why?"

Lara grimaced. "Then I'm going the long way home."

Poom grabbed Lara's shoulder as she turned to leave. "Laarrrraaaa! Don't do that!" Lara raised an eyebrow but didn't say anything. Both of them jumped as the doors to the high school flew open a good ten minutes after everyone had left.

"Daiya!" Poom grimaced at the use of her dreaded first name. "Call me Poom!" She screamed as she whirled around. Like always, it was Mike. "Mike, stop stalking me. It's not cool and you have no right to do that." Poom trailed off when she noticed the dazed look in his eyes focused on Poom's chest area. Lara, seeing Poom confused as ever, walked over and waved a hand in front of Mike's face. He was unfazed. She nodded. "Yup. Out cold." Lara laughed "you have to stop doing that to boys, Poom." Poom was still confused. "Do what? This is Mike we're talking about here. He'll look at any girl providing they're even remotely pretty." Lara rolled her eyes. "Poom, you're very pretty. Stop being in denial. If you don't learn how to harness this power the government will come and take you away and then I'll have to call you Agent Poom. And we'd never see each other again."

Poom rolled her eyes. "Come on, Lara. You know that would never happen. The aliens would get me first. Duh. Let's go home."

As they turned a corner there was a flash of light behind them and they heard footsteps. "Hey, Gabor!" Someone called from behind. Within seconds the person was right next to them. Lara turned around first. "Oh. Hey Kurt. What's up?" Kurt smirked. "The sky, of course." Poom was very confused. "Who are you?" She asked him. "Um…. I'm… uh…" Kurt's eyes were starting to look dazed too, focused around Poom's chest. Lara rolled her eyes and stepped in front of him. "This is Kurt. He's in a few of my classes." Poom nodded and then raised an eyebrow. "Did I….. do to him what I did to Mike?" Lara grinned and nodded. Suddenly, she ducked down and swept Kurt's feet out from under him. Kurt screamed ad fell. Once on the ground he shouted "Gabor! Not cool!" Poom giggled.

"What?" He demanded. "Your accent is sexy." Poom replied. Kurt blushed and leapt to his feet again. "What was that for, Lara?" He turned to Poom. "And my accent is sexy? Never heard that before." Poom smiled. Lara replied "Well, for one you were starting to remind me of Mike." Kurt snorted. "You mean the dork that always spends his time watching either girls or the computer?" Lara nodded "The one and only. The second reason is that every other person in this school has no problem calling me Lara yet you persistently call me by my last name." Kurt grinned. "Chill, Gabor. It's a cool last name. Sounds… Italian?" Lara rolled her eyes. "It's Romanian. Means gypsy". Kurt shrugged. "I was close."


(A/N: End chapter one. My apologies about the rather abrupt ending. So... what did you think? Reviews make me update quicker!)
