We had gotten around halfway into Bayville when i had to stop. I mean, he didn't stop talking about stupid things like"Hey, did you know this is where the X-Men fought the Brotherhood?" and "Look, this is where my best friend Rosetta Maximoff, or as i call herWhite Lightning found out that she was a mutant." Eventually he shut up about it... Considering we were getting into "Dangerous Territory" or so he says.
"Hey Twinkle Toes, how ya doing so far?"
I said "I think i'm doing good."
"Well, now is not the best time to stop and take a rest."
I said "Why?"
"Because, this is close to Bayville High School..."
I said "And how is that dangerous?"
"The students bully mutants like all hell should break loose."
I said "Really?"
"Yeah"
I heard a bell ring from ahead and knew that trouble was about to brew...
"Um, Twinkle Toes, we should go now..."
I said "No. I want to meet a few people.."
"We really shouldn't..."
I said "Come on. I've been stuck in the Institute, i want to at least meet one normal person other than myself."
"Fine. Come on."
I said "Okay."
I knew he was pissed at me for wanting to meet a normal person, but who could blame me? I never met anyone normal in my life. Ever. Except on occasion when a girl called Laura Kinney came to the institute. She seemed normal, but people were always talking about to not anger her.
I completely bumped into someone and both me and that person fell straight down. I didn't mean to zone out, but i did.
I said "Sorry."
I heard a voice say "Watch where you are going geek."
I said "Excuse Me?"
The voice said "What? Confused geek?"
I looked up to see a largely built guy in a Letterman jacket and almost army style cut hair.
I said "Who are you?"
He said "You don't know who i am? Me? Star Quarter back?"
I said "Nope."
He said "I'm Stewart Mathews. Remember that."
I said "Okay..."
He said "Hey, look at this, it's Steven Madrox. One of those mutant kids."
I heard a "Oh yeah, Steven..." From behind him and realized that a posse was about to gang up on either just Steven, or both of us. I didn't know which yet...
He said "So, are you a mutant, freak?"
I said "No."
He said "Are you sure?"
I said "Yeah.."
He said "Then why are you hanging out with a mutant? And why haven't i seen you around Bayville before?"
I said "I just moved here."
He said "Very unlikely. Guys, get them."
Dang. My first day out of the institute and i'm gonna get into a fight because these idiots hate mutants. There was around 5 or 6 of them in total. Just enough so that half of them could go after Steven, while the other half went after me.
