The next day Kurt slept in as the kids left for school.

Kitty had filled Kurt's bowl as she normally did before she left for him when he got up.

Hank walked into Kitty and Rouges room seeing the young nightcrawler fast asleep on the bed of Kitty's.

Hank grinned to himself and put a huge furry hand on the little guy rubbing his back waking him up.

"Come on young Kurt…its check up day." Kurt stretched out purring as he awoke.

"That's a good boy." Hank smiled taking Kurt into his arms. Walking out of the room Hank bumped into Storm.

"Oh, sorry." She looked at Kurt in Beast's arms. "What are you doing with Kurt?"

Hank adjusted his hold on the teleporter so to not drop him, "He needs his mouthy vet check." He answered plainly.

"Aw, well let's just hope he stays this clam every time you give him a check up." Storm laughed sweetly.

"Yes. Indeed." Hank agreed. Kurt was licking his free paw in a none caring state as the two talked.

"What if he tries to teleport during the exam?" Storm questioned knowing that could be a problem.

Hank again adjusted his hold, Kurt was just too big, it was like holding a teenager.

"Surely you don't think I'd attempt the check up with out a way to keep a teleporter grounded, do you?"

"Yes, we wouldn't want you ending up in the fountain like Logan." Storm replied with a chuckle stroking nightcrawlers head.

Hank smiled in response and walked passed Storm to the med lab.

Dr. McCoy put Kurt down on the vet table he had fixed up and petted him keeping him clam, he wasn't sure just how Kurt would take his first vet visit.

Kurt looked around the room then began to lick his three toed paw again.

Dr. McCoy grabbed a vest with wires attached to it and gently put it on nightcrawler. The cat like mutant didn't like it much and started to fight to get it on but Hank soon won happy Kurt wasn't scared enough to port away.

"Now just hold still Kurt, I'm going to take a look into your mouth."

Kurt scratched his pointed ear with a back leg. Hank smiled and gently opened Kurt's mouth. The nightcrawler didn't seem to mind and just opened wider showing his fangs in all there glory.

Hank was pleased with what he saw and began to check his heart beat. After all the test were done Hank felt a since of happiness in Kurt's results and his positive attitude. But now he knew the last bit was going to be the unpleasant part. Kurt needed his second shot.

Filling a syringe Hank became startled as he heard Logan enter the room. The big man's feet made a lot of nose even when he was trying to be silent.

"Logan, what beings you in here?"

Logan looked over at the vested nightcrawler then back at the doctor.

"Charles fells I should be in here to help." He grunted.

Hank's eyes got wide, if Logan was sent in there that could only mean one thing….Kurt was going to fight.

"Very well. Here's the shot…"

"I didn't say I'd give him the shot, I said I'd help." Logan remarked.

Hank understood and walked passed Logan over to Kurt.

The young mutant cat was watching them as they came closer. Hank gently pushed Kurt to lay and began to insert the needle into Kurt's back.

At the feeling Kurt tried to port but couldn't and began to struggle.

"Logan hold him still." Wolverine did just that. He did his best to hold Kurt down with out hurting him. Within minutes the needle was out and Kurt was unvested. But he didn't port like they thought he would…no, Kurt instead planted his two front paws on Logan's chest and sniffed his face as if he had just eaten something he wanted.

"Get off before I stick you again." Logan threatened. But Kurt didn't move.

Hank started to laugh, it was such a funny sight. Logan pushed Kurt off of him and watched as the blue cat sniffed the table he was on then jumped on Hanks head kneeing his back.

"I helped, I'm out of here." With that Logan raised a hand up leaving.

***

The house was quite with out the kids, Kurt roamed the house noticing Logan had left the place altogether and Hank well, Kurt wasn't interested in finding Hank at the moment so it didn't matter.

Walking the hall way down stairs Kurt whipped his tail and ported. He ended up in the study and saw the professor reading a book.

"Well hello there Kurt." He said not looking away from his book.

"Meow"

"Yes, meow indeed." Xavier smiled now putting the book down to look at him.

"Come here boy." Professor said tapping his chair. "I haven't spent time with you ever since I brought you home."

Kurt looked around the room before porting right on to Xavier's lap.

Charles put his hands to Kurt temple. "How do you like it here?" he asked as he began to read the young mutants mind.

'meow…Kitty's nice, I like her, is she my mom? I think she's mom, she takes care of me…Rouge is mom's sister. I like her too…just can't touch her, she no like that-it hurts. Shades wears glasses…why I never see him take them off? Butterfly…I miss playing with the butterflies. Jean is mommy too, she take care of me…she gave me milk. Logan's nice but rough and mean-he must be dad…daddy's are mean and caring.'

Kurt sat on his tail and looked up at the ceiling.

"What about me and the others?" the professor went on. "What do you think of them?"

'Your dad. You brought me home from streets and the bad people who hurt me…Evan funny…he plays with me…Bobby cold….furry man like me…is he my brother?

Xavier smiled at all he heard in Kurt's head some he found funny and cute. "I'm glad there are no negative remarks to where you live. Go play now."

Kurt jumped off his lap and rolled around on the ground then ported out of the room.

*****************

Kurt watched the clock, it was almost 3:00.

Jumping up on the window seal Kurt waited for the kids to come home.

Slowly each kid appeared into view. Scott's car was first. Kurt smiled and whipped his tail happily as the teens entered the front door.

"Well hi there Kurt, you never fail at waiting for us do you?" Evan remarked patting his head.

"Poor guy must be board here with out us…huh little fella?" Jean said leaning down to peck his head.

Kurt purred and wet back to looking out the window. In no time at all, all the x-kids were home…all except Kitty.

Kurt looked back at the clock it was now 3:31, this worried him. "Meow!" Kurt got Scott's attain.

"What is it Kurt?" he asked seeing the mutant cat in distress. Then he looked up at the clock and out the window. "Your looking for Kitty aren't you?" Scott knelt down to pet Kurt gently. "She walked home, I'm sure she's fine Kurt, probably just went to the brotherhoods house."

Kurt meowed again more forcefully and clawed at the window. Scott sighed. "No Kurt you can't go out there."

"Meow!" he yelled again. at least if he was able to talk Scott would take it as a yell.

"No Kurt!" Scott snapped back. Kurt backed down from the window and laied down in a way that seemed sad.

Scott sighed again putting a hand to the back of his neck. "Hold on. K, Kurt?" the he vanished up stairs.

Kurt just wrapped up in a ball tapping the spade of his tail on the couch as if in thought.

Up stares Scott knocked on the study's door. "Professor?"

"Yes Scott, come in."

"Professor…I have a question-it's about Kurt." Xavier gave Scott his full attain. "I know you told Kitty Kurt couldn't go out side…well what about a holo collar? We could disguise him as a normal house cat…" just then the professor cut him off.

"No Scott I fear that would not work."

"But why professor?"

"Listen Scott, I would love more then any thing for Kurt to go outside and live more free…but that can't happen-and its for his own safety. Besides even if I was to make him a halo collar his size wouldn't work. The hologram would have to be the size a lion or tiger…which would be just as bad if he was to go out there in his normal form."

Kurt was about to fall asleep when something caught his ears. It was a scream….

Kurt shot up and looked out the window, but no one was there.

Looking around then back outside Kurt 'bamf'

Scott put his head down feeling bad for Kurt, the poor guy had to live I hiding more then them.

"Scott." Looking at his professor Scott noticed Xavier's distressed face. "Kurt just ported outside."

Kurt followed the sound it was in the woods near the house. The sound of the voice got louder and soon found it was Kitty!

"Let go of me Tramp!" Kitty yelled as a dark, black haired man grabbed a hold of Kitty's arm.

"Come on baby…give it up no ones going to here you out here, you might as well just hand over all your money…" he laughed.

Kitty screamed again and just as she did a hiss came from above her.

"What the?" the man looked up just in time to see a blue furred like demon land on his face.

"MEOW!" Kurt hissed clawing at the mans face drawing blood. "Get off you little freak!"

Kitty was shocked but not as much as when she saw Logan, Jean, and Scott.

"You okay Half Pint?"

"Yeah I'm alright."

"Red! Get blue ball off that mans face." Jean did just that once Kurt was off she placed him down near Logan keeping him at bay then erased his mind making him believe a normal house cat attacked him.

Logan got Kurt home safely the others following behind.

***

Kitty sat on the bed petting Kurt. "If it wasn't for you I'd be…well…I don't know but I'm so glad you came to my rescue." Kitty snuggled Kurt with thanks.

Kitty then heard a knock on her door, it was the professor. "Kitty. I'm proud of you for not using your powers in front of humans, however maybe next time it wouldn't hurt." He smiled sweetly.

"Sorry Professor, I just, you know…"

"I know Kitty, its lucky Kurt has such great hearing."

"Ya, like I know." She smiled.

Xavier gave a great fake smile and left the room.

***

In his study, Hank saw the worry in the professor's eyes. "You look like something's bothering you. What's wrong?"

Sighing Xavier answered, "Yes Hank, something is bothering me…"

"It's not the attack on Kitty is it?"

"Yes, and no, its not Kitty that's bothering me, it's the fact Kurt went outside. If there was even the slights chance another human say Kurt out there today there is a chance he will be taken away."

Hank went wide eyed.

"I saved Kurt's life….but that only means they could come looking for him…and that's a risk I can't let him take again."
