Falling, falling… exactly the same feeling he has when he's a sleep. That same dream, coming back to him… Falling down, down, down… He remembers that in the dream, he could see something chasing him, and whoever was holding him was running away, running for dear life. As Kurt looked around in the dream, an old rickety suspension bridge came into view. As the person holding him began to cross, and then the sensation began. The sensations of being virtually weightless as you fall. He remembered seeing the face of whoever was carrying him crying out for Kurt as he fell, reaching their arms out to him, but the face was blurred to beyond recognition.

Kurt opened his eyes and saw the Earth coming towards him quickly. He was about to pull his 'chute when he remembered,

"Vait a minute… I can teleport! Vhy did I bring zhis along vith me?" he said, referring to the parachute on this back. He suddenly began to teleport closer and closer to the ground, finally stopping in one of the trees. The tree sharply bent under the sudden weight, and snapped, letting Kurt fall to the ground about ten feet away.

"Oof!" he exclaimed, having half of the air in his lungs expelled quickly. After seeing stars for a few seconds, Kurt manages to get up and shake the pain away.

"Ouch… Gott zhat hurt…" said the elf rubbing his head. He looked around his surroundings and tried to make sense of where he was. Trees, trees, trees, trees; that's all he saw, except the occasional break in the massive wall of trees where you would see the massive pile of rocks or the small grassy area, but it's mostly just trees. After standing and stretching, Kurt began to look for the mutant (or thing) in question. Having slightly heightened senses, he could tell if something had been there a while or didn't belong in the surroundings. His nose then leads him to the pile of rocks, where after much searching; Kurt finds a cave at the bottom of the pile, and the smell of a mutant just pouring off the rocks. He then noticed the markings leading to and from the cave's entry, some were human, some were simply various animals that could not be deciphered.

"Hm… obviously what we're looking for is a mutant…" he observed. "Maybe it has the ability to change its shape..?" Kurt asked himself. Having absolutely no idea what kind of mutant he's facing, he has to make all possibilities known, no matter how stupid they sound. But, what he had not realized is that someone was watching him. If the cat-like elf was to turn around, then he would notice the yellow eyes staring at him through the brush. The eyes then suddenly disappeared, and reappearing in the trees high above the unknowing blue teen. A breaking branch brings Kurt to become more aware of his surroundings. Spinning quickly around, Kurt nervously calls out to the unseen.

"Um, hello? I'm not trying to hurt you, I just vould like to talk vhiz you…" and at that, the eyes sprung from their hiding place and became more than just a pair of eyes. "A-a, a snow leopard?" Kurt cried out in fear as the big cat jumped down upon the teen. As Kurt tried to fight it, he knew that he could not kill it, due to the snow leopards being endangered, and if he killed it, it would one; be terrible to kill such a gorgeous creature, and two; he would most likely be put in jail for killing an endangered species. The wild cat scratched at him, pulling large amounts of fur from his body, and littering the ground with the blue covering. Kurt tried to teleport away, but for some reason, he could not. He ended up just jumping around trying franticly to get the large animal away from him. The big cat soon tried to go for his jugular; it was then that Kurt knew that he had to do something to save himself and to finish this mission. Through maybe thirty seconds of fighting, Kurt managed to shake off the big beast and teleport to the trees. The cat looked confused and began to spin in circles trying to find the fighting partner. The cat found him when there was a sudden weight on its back. Bucking like a bronco at a rodeo, the leopard tried to shake off the elf; but to no avail, Kurt wrapped his arms around the cat's neck and squeezed, trying to make the cat have little air, enough to survive, but not enough to enable fighting. This wrestling move worked, and the cat fell to the ground, not moving. Kurt sighed in relief and got off the cat, and then sitting next to the rocks. He began thinking maybe he confused the scent of a mutant with that of a leopard. He looked at the big cat, which was not moving. The blue teen gulped, and crawled slowly over to the cat to see if it was alive.

"Um… here kitty, kitty…? C'mon, vake up; I didn't hurt you zhat much, did I?" He slowly reached his hand out to touch the large animal, and felt that its heart was beating and heard that the cat was breathing. He sighed once more.

"Ug, you sure gave me a heart attack boy-" began Kurt, only to notice that the cat was morphing into human form. Not only was it a human, but a female. "I mean, girl…" he said as the cat finished morphing to a girl. She looked about his age, maybe a little younger, and she was drop-dead gorgeous, and naked. Kurt gulped as he thought back on fighting with the cat, not caring about where he touched… He then blushed thinking about where he would've touched on the girl in her girl form. He blushed even more looking at her, luckily her hair covered her chest, and since she was on her side, her legs covered any other "private" parts. Being the gentleman he is, Kurt then took off his uniform, making sure to leave his underwear on, and covered the girl with his uniform to keep her from being exposed and to make sure she wouldn't get cold. He sat next to the rocks and basked in the sunlight, trying to contact the Professor.

"Professor? You there?" the blue mutant said in his head.

"Yes Nightcrawler, I'm here. What's wrong? Are you in danger?"

"Um, no… I'm fine. But, I zhink I found who ve vere looking for…"

"Oh? Already? Well, describe them to me, what do they look like? What can they do?"

"Vell, I can tell you a little about her, but she's sorta asleep…" Kurt said nervously, not wanting to say he knocked her out.

"Her? Well to be honest, I wasn't expecting it to be a female… But, never mind that. What does she look like?"

"Vell, she's about my age, maybe a little younger-"

"That young? My, we have quite the mutant on our hands…"

"Yeah, and she has curly red hair, reaching half-way down her back. The only other thing I can really tell you about is that I know she can morph into a snow leopard, but I don't know anything else about her. Ve had a little bit of a fight, and I accidentally knocked her out…"

"Well, we'll have to deal with that later Kurt. Contact me as soon as she wakes up." The Professor said to the blue boy.

"Right Professor." And at that, the conversation ended, leaving Kurt at the mercy of the forest and the girl, that is when she wakes up.
