[One minute, Kurt was in the middle of hanging out in his room in the evening, literally upside down, reading through a book. The next, he suddenly found himself wondering why he was wasting time with books. Landing on the ground, he tosses the book aside and regards himself in a nearby mirror. He's in the same ragged clothing he's used to. He ( Read more... )

[That evening, Kitty's on her way back from some quiet "me" time at the library. Everything in their little family of mutants seems to be toning down. At least Kurt isn't four inches tall and giving her heart attacks anymore. And so far, she's come out of this unscathed. She can't really say much for the rest of the town, since it's really starting to feel like she lives in one big TV sitcom meets circus sideshow act, but she's trying her best to count her blessings.

She's alone, walking down the path toward home by the glow of the streetlights when she sees a familiar figure out the corner of her eye. It's his walk, more than anything, that catches her attention. But it's odd. This person is shaped like Kurt and walks like Kurt, but carries himself in a completely unnerving way.

When she sees him duck into the bar, she can't resist her curiosity. That couldn't be Kurt, right? She just has to check.

So she jogs off after him and enters the bar, standing hesitantly in the doorway. She's sixteen. She shouldn't be in a bar. And he's ( ... )

What, is my caring threatening you? Would you really attack me because I'm trying to help?

I don't need your help. Especially not from you Xavier kids. None of us do. We're mutants. We want something, we can take it. [His tail goes back to the bottle, wrapping around it. He turns from her, taking it in hand so he can walk away.]

Kurt, please. [She walks up to him cautiously, gently placing a hand on his shoulder. If he lashes out at her, she's ready to phase.] You have to believe me. Whatever they did to you, you can fight it.

[He pulls his shoulder way, glaring back at her.]

You call me that one more time, I can't be held accountable for what happens next.

[She pulls her hand away.]

Why are you so angry?

Gee, I wonder. Maybe because I just wanted a drink alone.

No, it's something else. Everything about you is angry. You're like, even worse than Rogue.

[She can't let him leave. Not like this. She'll just keep analyzing him if that's enough to make him stay.]

[She wanted angry? Now she's getting angry, his eyes flare up again at that.]

I am nothing like her! Don't even compare the two of us!

[That is the creepiest thing she's ever seen. She has a hard time not reacting this time, but refuses to back off. Kurt is somewhere under there. She has to get him to snap out of it somehow.]

Then why are you acting just like her? I'm trying to help you and you're just pushing me away.

[Kurt? Kurt is nowhere to be found. Just an increasingly agitated teenager who is one moment away from attacking.]

Keep it up and I'll show you pushing.

[Well she was able to make him snap out of it the last time with a kiss. She even helped him when he was hallucinating. She's too stubborn to give up after all of that.]

Just quit the tough guy act, will you? What are you so scared of, that I might be right?

I fear nothing!.

[And with that, he vanishes in a puff of smoke, reappearing behind her in mid air, his tail already swinging towards her head. It's his goal to simply knock her out before she starts phasing.]

[At first, she thinks he ran from her, and she stares at that residual puff of smoke, feeling numb. She doesn't realizes what's really happening until it's too late, starts the phase but doesn't avoid it completely. The impact knocks her off her feet, and she lands on her butt on the floor. Stunned, all she can do is stare up at him like a kicked puppy, clutching the side of her head.]

[He reappears, back on top of the bar, crouching and glaring down at her. Does he look apologetic? No. Not even concerned. He's just waiting for her next move.]

[She's too angry and hurt to say anything more. She doesn't want to give up on him, but her throat tightens too much to speak without the threat of tears. So she gets up, backs up slowly away from him, then turns and runs, phasing through the nearest wall and back into the dark winter cold. She has to get home. She has to get help. Somehow, they have to snap him out of this, or at least stop him from hurting anyone else.]
