Here's your update!

Ug….no Media Center today….the school's president was having a going away party! No students allowed. We watched a soccer game, but eventually headed in because we were too loud, and it was raining. We sat around for two hours, avoiding the Vice Principal. She scares me….she has PMS all the time or something.

Lady Liliana: I just looked over the stories, and I am sorry for the mistake. I am not a very good typer yet….I'll change my spelling. Thank you for bringing that to my attention. I only used her name three times anyway…. I might change it in the future if I see the need because I'm sure that I have other typos.

Thank you all for the reviews!

Chapter 7: The Arrival

Xavier Institute:

Professor Xavier was in his office busying himself with the mystery that was the new group coming. He was searching through all their records for any information that they may use. Meanwhile downstairs, Kurt and Kitty were busy with the preparations for the new recruits. The rooms were almost all finished. Scott was making sure that everything outside was ok. All the others were also cleaning.

The Professor decided to call their parents. After thinking about it for a while, he decided to call Gohan's parents first. He dialed the number and waited until someone answered. It didn't take too long, though.

"Son residence, Goten speaking," came a childish voice on the other end.

"Oh, hello, my name's Charles Xavier. May I ask you a few questions about Gohan?"

"What do you want to know about my brother? Mom said to never talk to strangers because they might kidnap me or something."

"Well, you don't have to worry about that. See, I'm the director of the school your brother is going to."

"Ooooooh. Now I get it. But, why do you want to talk to me?"

"I need some information about your brother."

"Ok…. ummmm… ask away."

"Has he shown any special abilities?"

"Mom said to not say anything about that."

"I'll take that as a yes. Anyway, what does he do in his spare time?"

"He does homework and trains."

"Trains for what?"

"Oh, he's one of the best fighters in the world!…. Did I just say that… ummm…. I didn't say that…" said Goten after he realized his mistake.

"I'll ask him bout that later. It's been nice talking to you. Goodbye."

"Bye!" and with that, the two hung up.

Xavier was confused as to what had just transpired. 'That was different. I might as well wait until I call any other parents.'

X-Jet:

The jet full of people started slowing down as it begun to land, catching the attention of the six new recruits.

"We're here," said Logan. "So, don't forget your manners, or you will have to deal with me, and that wouldn't be a pretty sight."

"Whatever, Claw-Boy," said Yusuke sarcastically, "I'll be nice to the people here."

"I don't appreciate the sarcasm, Yusuke. Just don't show that in front of the Professor, or he may punish you, and that would mean training with me, and even you wouldn't like that."

"There's nothing you can do that would compare with Grandma's Evil Boot Camp," replied Yusuke, shuddering slightly at the mention of her training.

"Grandma?" asked Logan, about to laugh hysterically.

"Hey, Genkai would have you begging for your Mommy within the first day! That is, unless you like pain and cruel, unusual punishment. She is pure evil when it comes to training!"

"I would have to agree with him there," added Kurama.

"Wasn't Genkai that old lady with the pink hair at the meeting point?" asked a clearly confused Gohan. He was sure the woman was strong, now. She had to be in order to train Yusuke.

"I still say she's pure evil!"

"Whatever, bub," said Logan, still holding back a laugh.

"Will you guys stop arguing? We're here!" said Jean, bringing the attention back to the Institute.

Institute:

Xavier instructed all of the students to assemble at the basketball court ((isn't that where the jet lands? Correct me if I'm wrong. If you know the proper place, then review it to me, and just pretend that they are there. It has to relevance to the story.))

Kurt pushed the button on his inducer so that the newbies wouldn't be overwhelmed. Also to keep the new recruits from being overwhelmed, Hank/Beast stayed down in the lab, and watched the festivities from a camera.

Rogue was the last to assemble. She had just awoken from a nice nap, and was in no hurry to get up. Everyone could tell that she was still tired.

They watched as the jet landed. The air blew out from under it, causing many particles of dust and dirt to fly at the X-men. Many had to shield their eyes.

They all watched as Logan walked off the jet, followed by the six students. The first was a boy of about 16 with fiery red hair. It reached his shoulders. He looked content with the area, and showed no signs of fatigue that usually ensued from long jet rides.

The second was a short boy with hair that defied gravity. It was about the same length as the first boy's, but there was no way to truly tell. His disposition was bored and annoyed.

The third was a girl with black hair that went almost down to her mid back. She looked fatigued, but not too tired.

The fourth was the oddest. He had long hair—longer than the girl's—and it was a bluish shade of white. Also, as Kurt pointed out, he had two doggie ears resting upon the top of his head. He also was carrying an old sword in a sheath. His expression was hard to read.

The fifth was a tall boy with spiky hair, but it was short. He looked confused.

The sixth was a boy with black hair that was slicked back with tons of hair gel. He had a cocky attitude.

After they came off, the X-men saw the familiar faces of Jean and Storm.

Xavier moved his wheelchair closer to the group, where he greeted each of the students. He motioned for he other X-men to come over and meet them. Many inevitable questions came.

"Like, why do you have dog ears?" asked Kitty.

"It must be my mutant powers, wouldn't you think?" came the arrogant answer from Inuyasha. Kagome glared at him for his rudeness, but said nothing.

"Welcome to the Institute. Kitty, show Kagome to the room that you two will be sharing. (I don't care that Kitty and Rogue are roommates…. in this one, Rogue gets her own room.)). Kurt, show Inuyasha and Gohan to their room. Then, show Yusuke to the room which you two will be sharing. Scott, show Hiei and Suuichi to the room that they will be sharing. Everyone, meet at the dining room in an hour for dinner," said Xavier.

Kitty and Kagome:

"So, what's it like living in Japan?" asked Kitty to Kagome as they walked to their room, Kagome carrying her capsule.

"Well, we speak Japanese, and we have different customs. Also, because I live in Tokyo, I'm used to a little different pollution in the air.

"You can tell the difference in the air?"

"A little bit. Inuyasha was the one to really point it out when we arrived. He had super-human senses."

"Like Logan?"

"Much stronger."

"Well, what do you do in your spare time?"

"I study and hang out with friends," said Kagome, not liking where this was going.

"What do you guys do?"

"Ummm…." She didn't want to lie to her new friend, so she made a half-truth. "We travel some and we take care of an orphan boy."

"That's so sweet! What's his name?"

"Shippou."

"Cool, well, here we are at the room. Your bed is over there," she said as she pointed to the bed on the left, "and this door goes to the bathroom that we share with Rogue. I guess you'll find out soon enough, but, don't touch her skin. Her mutation is that if she has skin contact with someone, then she can make them pass out or go into a coma or die, depending on how long the contact was and how strong the person touched is."

"Okay."

With Kurt, Yusuke, Inuyasha, and Gohan

"What do you guys do for fun around here?" asked Yusuke.

"We play mutant ball, swim, play other sports, act like normal teenagers, and train."

"What are your training sessions like?" asked Gohan.

"Depends on your power," answered Kurt, "Professor will tell you about it later."

"Okay."

"Well, here's your room, Inuyasha and Gohan. The door on the right is the room that goes to the bathroom, and the left is a connecting door to mine and Yusuke's.

The two boys walked into the room to unpack their capsules.

"This is out room, Yusuke. The door to the left is the bathroom, which we will be sharing with Kurama and Hiei, and the door on the right is the connecting door to Inuyasha and Gohan.

With Scott, Hiei, and Kurama:

"Do you guys know what your powers are?" asked Scott.

"I have the power over plants, and Hiei can create and manipulate fire," said Kurama.

"That's a new power. The last pyro we had could only manipulate fire."

"Hn. I can only manipulate the fire I create," said Hiei.

"Still, that really comes in handy."

"What is you power?" asked Kurama.

"I have lasers that come out of my eyes. That's why I have to wear these glasses. They keep my power at bay."

"How long do you think it will take for you to control it?"

"Hopefully sometime soon. But, I haven't been training that dedicatedly lately. I really should."

"How much longer until we get to the room?"

"Oh, here it is. See you two later at the dining room. The door on the right is th bathroom that you share with Yusuke and Kurt. You two have no other neighbor because you are on the end of the hallway. See you later!"

"Bye."

With Yusuke and Kurt:

"Can we have a meeting in here?" asked Yusuke as he finished unpacking.

"I don't see why not. I'll go get the other recruits. I'll come get you when it is time for dinner."

"Thanks, dude."

END CHAPTER

Whew….an hour and a half! Sorry for any typos.

I'm almost at the end of the part I have written down. That means that I have to add to the notebook before I can type any more. I should have two more chapters written out in my notebook in a week or two. I found that this chapter was 10 pages of written out stuff in a composition notebook. Six pages typed up, plus Author's Notes, like what I am typing right now.

R&R!
