A/N: Wow, I just realized I never did the disclaimer on the last chapter... Wow. Okay, um, I own NOTHING except the man who dragged Toad and Pyro out in the prologue. I also own one OC who's name is pending and then Jinx is owned by Blackrose197666. Now, Pyro's a bit OOC in this chapter(And the rest of the fic, but more so right now), because I wanted to show his relationship with Toad. I find it funny. XD

John stood next to Todd, slightly behind him. The amphibian mutant knocked on the door in front of them and soon it opened, revealing Storm. The woman looked surprised to see them.

"Uh, May I help you two?" She asked. John zoned out as Todd started explaining their situation, why they need to stay here, etc. He was brought out of it by Todd nudging him, telling him to come on. John heard muttering among the newer students and he saw some who he went to school with glare at him.

"John, your room is still open for you. And since there is a spare bed in there, Toad can share with you." Storm said. John nodded blankly.

"Yeah... Sure..." He said. Storm walked off to go do God knows what, and John and Todd entered John's old room. Todd raised an eyebrow at the lighters littering the floor.

"Okay, I did not do that! I swear! I kept my lighters in the dresser!" John snapped before Todd could make any comment. Todd snorted.

"So what happened? A tornado come through here?" The older mutant asked as John dropped onto one of the beds. John scowled.

"Drake... The little fucker's been in here." He said. Todd shook his head, forcing back a grin. John looked at Todd.

"So... What's up with the necklace? I mean, he could've just left us, but he dragged us out and left the necklace. Why?" The pyrokinetic asked. His 'older brother' shrugged.

"Beats me... Guess he wanted me to know we're even, I guess. I saved his ass once when we were kids." Todd replied, "I really don't know." John nodded slowly in understanding. If anything, it'd explain why he left the necklace. There was a knock on the door.

"John. We need to talk." John frowned at the familiar voice of the Iceman.

"Care to explain why to threw my lighters all over the place?" He hissed. He heard Bobby sigh.

"I'm sorry about that... Look, we really have to talk." Bobby said again.

"No thanks. You did enough talking when you split my head open!" John replied, his hand going to his recently bandaged forehead. It still amazed him how frikkin' amazing Todd was with medical supplies.

"John!"

"Fuck off Drake! I don't want to talk to you!" John snapped. Todd rolled his eyes and went to the door, opening it.

"Ignore'm. He's been a bitch since I told him we were comin' here." The amphibian said to the ice mutant. He went back over to his bed. John threw his pillow at Todd.

"Bastard!"

"Hey! This bastard bandaged your head, you could a bit more grateful!"

"I'll be grateful when I'm dead!" Todd rolled his eyes and threw the pillow back at John.

"I can't really do anything about that. Blame Nicholas for that." John flipped his friend off.

"You two know Mr. Asinawa?" Bobby asked. They looked at him.

"How do you know Nicholas?" Todd frowned.

"He's a new teacher here..." Bobby said.

"Hey Todd, bet you he'll flip out once he sees you." John grinned evilly.

"Don't even think about it!" Todd said. John laughed and ran out the door, looking for the human who saved them.

"Pyro get your ass back here!" Todd ran after him. Bobby, not wanting them to get in trouble, chased them.

"Guys!" He shouted. Pyro ignored them, looking for the human he's seen only one picture of. He ran into Logan and fell to the ground unceremoniously.

"Watch it Pyro." Logan glared. Todd came over and grabbed the boy.

"You are seriously annoying, you know that?" He hissed at the boy.

"Todd?" A human walked over. John laughed.

"Leggo!" He forced Todd to let go as the stunned mutant looked at the human.

"Uhh..."

"Wow! Even a pissed off Sabretooth can't make him stay still like that!" John said, now standing to the side. His know-it-all grin was plastered to his face. After a few more minutes of silence, Logan snorted and walked off. John's grin turned slightly evil looking and he kicked Todd's leg. He grabbed Bobby and hid behind the corner, watching.

'I wonder if Todd's ever gonna admit he likes the fucker...'
