I do not own X-men. I own Tiffani and Lexi.

Story Start

Fear was the only feeling Tiffani had as she slept last night with her room across from Lexi's room. She had pushed almost all of the room's furniture to keep the door closed. Pepper spray and a tazer were sitting peacefully on her nightstand that was still the closest piece of furniture to the bed.

She woke up and looked around thanking that she was not sleeping on clouds with a little halo above her head. She left on her pajamas, which Ororo had been nice enough to give her. A quick peak at the barricaded door and she shook her head. "Window," she muttered before rushing over and opening the window.

Nerves tried to force her back into the room as she crept out onto the edge of the building outside her window. She was two stories above the ground. Fear from what her friend could do to her if she did not put her plan into action soon enough made her get on the ledge and out of her room. She scanned the building parts she could see and she smirked when she saw another open window.

A shift took over her and she realized her cat instincts had taken over for right now. She was thankful for her power as she walked on the ledge towards the open window. Her smirk grew when she reached the window and saw that it was Scott's room. Jean was nowhere in sight.

"I could be mean now or later," she thought and then remembered Lexi. "Later," she thought and rushed through his room without waking him. She opened his bedroom door, closed it, and then hightailed herself to the kitchen.

"Make waffles with smiley faces," she cheered and quickly went to work.

A little while later, she was carrying a tray with the waffles, silverware, and a glass of juice. "Hot guy, hot guy," she muttered looking around for an unsuspecting victim.

A yawning Logan was what her eyes landed on when she reached a hallway close to Lexi's room. "Perfect," she internally thought in delight before rushing towards the man.

"Logan, I need your help. I just got a call from the Professor about wanting to teach me how to control my powers and I have to go right now. I promised Lexi I'd make her breakfast though, so can you please take this to her?" Tiffani asked quickly all but shoving the tray of food into Logan's hands. "He's not shirtless but he'll do," she thought.

"Wait, what," he yelled after taking the tray and Tiffani disappeared back the way she came. He cursed to himself before walking towards Lexi's room.

Logan silently grumbled to himself about why he had to take one of the new women her breakfast. "Should have left it in the kitchen," he growled before knocking on Lexi's door. He grew curious when he heard growling, cursing, and then the door was pulled open in a rush. An angry glare made him almost jump back, but since he is whom he is, he stayed in place.

"What?" Lexi growled before the wonderful smell of waffles hit her senses.

"Your friend wants you to eat these," Logan growled and shoved the tray into Lexi's arms.

"Waffles," Lexi said happily before glaring back at Logan. "You didn't have to shove it into my arms and next time do not wake me up this early," she yelled before slamming her door shut in his face. "Waffles, maybe I won't kill her, just pull a prank on her," she muttered going back to her bed to eat the wonderful breakfast.

"Oh hello, are you new here?" an accented voice asked from somewhere behind Tiffani as she was sneaking around the mansion.

A loud scream tore out of her throat before she turned around in attack mode. Her eyes grew wide when she a kind looking blue man that had interesting designs all over his skin. She and the man stared each other down before she hugged him.

"You're so cute," she said hugging the surprised man who did not know to hug back or disappear and reappear at a safe distance. She looked down and said, "And you have a tail! You keep getting more awesome by the minute. Hi, my name is Tiffani."

"Ah, Tiffani, thank you, but you should go around hugging people like that?" the man asked in an embarrassed tone.

"Well I like giving people that seem like great people hugs, but if you don't want my hug," she started to say as she pulled away, but she was surprised when his tail wrapped around one of her legs. "I think your tail wants me to keep hugging you," she said with a small laugh when she saw his cheeks darken.

"Yes, sorry, my name is Kurt Wagner, but the others also call me Nightcrawler," he said as the two let go of each other from the hug.

"Everyone here has such cool nicknames. Anyways, nice to meet you," she said and gave him a wink.

He smiled back and asked, "What is your power? If you do not mind me asking."

She smiled at the little bit of nervousness that he displayed. "I don't know the full extent but so far I know I can take on different animal attributes and abilities," she explained and thought of a snake. She smiled when she felt fangs, saw the area differently, and saw small red scales on her arms and hands. She looked up at Kurt, who was giving her a surprised but happy look.

"That is amazing," he said happily and Tiffani kept staring at his tail. She felt herself want to be cat like but she restrained herself.

"Well you are the cool dude with the tail. I'm jealous," she said with a fake pout. He laughed before disappearing in a black smoke and then reappearing behind her. She spun around and had excitement shining in her eyes. "Totally jealous, now that was amazing," she said and she giggled internally when she saw him puff out his chest at the praise.

"Tiffani, there you are. Hello Kurt," Scott's voice rang through the hall and Tiffani frowned at him ruining her bonding moment with Kurt. "The professor wants to test your powers," he said walking closer to the pair.

"Fine," she said with a sigh before kissing Kurt on the cheek. "See you later," she said to Kurt before following Scott.

Lexi was in the training room that Scott led Tiffani into and the Professor was waiting there as well. "The waffles helped but I will eventually get you back," Lexi said and smiled when her friend cringed.

"Now girls, let us test your powers," Professor Xavier said calmly with a kind smile.

Lexi went first and tried to use the water under her command, but a bunch of water just appeared out of nowhere and hit everyone. She sighed before trying to concentrate a few more times. She was finally able to control the water enough to shoot some water in one direction, which was at Tiffani, instead of hitting everyone without control.

"That's good, now it is your turn," Professor Xavier said with a chuckle to Tiffani.

"Alright," Tiffani said moving her wet hair out of her face. She thought of an animal that enjoyed water and she smiled as her features started to turn into that of a bear. She had to focus on being a bear so much that something else was happening. At first, she was not sure of the extra activity but a smile crossed her face when she realized she had made contact with a real bear somewhere. She sent it a message before turning back to her normal self.

"That was good for the first day, you two have a good night and we will do this again tomorrow," Professor Xavier said before leaving the room. Scott followed him and soon Tiffani let Lexi into what she had done.

The two friends were in the hallway outside of Scott's room waiting for the explosion. Jean and Scott were holding hands walking down the hallway while giggling to each other. "Good night," Jean whispered to Scott before they gave each other a good night kiss. The two friends held their breath when Jean left and Scott entered his bedroom. They counted to five before Scott turned on the lights and let out a girlish scream of terror. They ran to the room, pulled open the door, and took a picture of Scott's scared expression.

A large bear was sleeping in Scott's bed. Scott was shaking in terror at the sight of the animal. "I hope you enjoy your new teddy bear," Tiffani yelled happily before the friends ran out of the room before Scott could catch them.
