Model au

N/A: Model au. I hate Gold Xmen but the idea of Kitty going to meet a kid who has fire powers and is uncontrollable without a plan and being impulsive as a hack is interesting.

Sweat drips from her body as the air gets more and more difficult to breath- there´s a thick number of clouds which is shadowing the figure. Only partially as one can still see the young boy´s silhouette- and Kitty speaks, not sure of the boy´s name, in hopes to get his attention. "Listen to me, you can control it. I´m with the X-men...You can control it" and the boy looks up to see Kitty- there´s a knot on her throat as she notices how smaller the boy is. She´s so much taller than him- and she continues. "Do you want to be a hero?"

The boy´s eyes look hazy, yet, the boy nods slowly. Kitty offers her hand. "You still can be one" and his hands are on fire - burning so bright. Furthermore is growing and growing- the boy refuses to speak and only looks up to Kitty- with very difficult. His neck is strained. It almost gives the impression he´s one of those dolls with bopping head- and then a cloud of brimstone takes her as a Logan manages to shot the kid.

Nightcrawler took her out of the scene. Kitty is less than thrill with this. "Why did you take me out? I was reaching him" and she coughs a little. Kurt frowns at that- a look she never saw before- and points out to all the destruction.

"You´re reaching out? Kitty, one minute there and you would be gone...dead. Is a miracle you´re alive" Kurt gives her a blanket. He continues. "Look at the destruction around you! How could you think you, going alone and without a plan, is the right thing to do?" and Kitty finally looks at her surroundings to see the burning houses. The burning streets and the people looking at everything with fear.

Some humans are still evacuating the area. And gulps. "I thought...I could talk with him" she begins and ends as she has no other excuses. Kurt guides her to a medical tent-an improvised little hospital. A woman named Dr. Reyes is taking care of Kitty. As Kurt mentioned, it is a miracle she didn´t was affected by the smokey clouds as the others were. It phases out of her body, although, still was a dangerous bet- and Kurt continues. "You thought you could do all alone? Kitty...you could have been killed and that wouldn´t help anyone" Kurt begins. Dr. Reyes´s attention is in a new patient.

Kitty wants to argue. "Isn´t that our mission? Help all mutants?" and Kurt still looks serious at her. "Yes, it is our mission. It is also our mission to make sure no one gets hurt and you dive into the fire is the opposite the mission. I´m...still scared. If I didn´t found in time...he would have burned alive and just because you can phase it didn´t mean you´re invincible" and Kurt now looks down and sits-more like falls on the empty space- "please, don´t throw your life away in the hopes of being a dream hero...those never last in anyone´s mind"

Kitty opens her mouth and closed. Several times. 

"I´m sorry...I thought" she begins and he sent a glare to her.

"I´ll say, next time you have this idea, a big no in all languages so it reaches into your mind, sounds fair?" Kurt asked back.

"Yes, it does" Kitty replies. And their talk is deemed concluded when Storm-wearing her uniform of the X-men-enters in the makeshift tent and hugs Kitty as well gives a serious scowl at the young woman.

What were you think Kitty?

____________________________________________________________________________________________

Kitty is still with the blanket Kurt gave to her-an indigo one that resembles his fur- and finally meet the old man who just finished the talk with Wolverine- she did reconize the uniform. Once the Canadian left, Kitty tries to speak with him again. "Kurt? What happened?" his eyes land on her for a moment and somewhat he looks more relaxed. Only a little.

"Is about the boy. His name is Dan Powell. His mutation awake too soon and well, he was a target of a demonic entity" Kurt waits for judgment or jokes such as ''is he your parent?'' and yet Kitty is just waiting for him to continue-if she knows about his heritage or if she thinks all mutants are related she didn´t voice out this yet nor shows- "Karma used her powers and managed to locate the demon and take out of the kid´s mind"

Kitty nods not forgetting the destruction she saw. "What will happen to everyone?" she bites her lips- still able to taste the smoke or so she thinks. She drinks her water and hopes to never witness this again- "We´ll clean the mess?"

And now Kurt chuckles amused. It is better than see him being too serious with her. "We? Terrible to clean messes. No, it will be Fantastic Four who will do this" and Kitty arches her eyebrows at this and Kurt almost laughs. "Oh, right, you don´t know the four ladies of Doom. Ok, get ready to meet another part of being a heroine...you´ll have to work with the them" and his head points to the 4 ladies-forever stuck in the ´70s - coming towards them.

The one with a blue hat begins talking. "Nightcrawler. Newbie" her tone is court. "We get pieces of information. Who was responsible for this mission?"

"Wolverine" Kurt begins but the one with white hair taps her foot and crosses her arms. Kitty may not know who they´re but she knows what they´re referring.

"It was my idea. I didn´t think of anyone when I dashed at Dan. If Kurt didn´t show up...I would have been" she didn´t finish her line. Somehow feeling stupid all of sudden. She notices his hand on her shoulder and his kind expression-she never saw this expression either- "I´m lucky and next time I´ll think of a plan and ask the help of my fellow teammates"

The white hat seems a little appeased by this. A little. "The material damage is easy to repost. Some people lost their houses and cars thanks to today, but, we can do the damage control" and now she winks at her own little jokes.

The one with a blue suit rolls her eyes. "We´re damage control. That´s our name. Anyway. Karma told us the boy was possessed by a demonic entity and while this could help in his case...he´ll still be sent to the Belle institution" and Kitty is outrageous.

"Wait, it was not his fault...why he has to be punished?"

"We should let him be free and let all those humans and mutants to see the person who almost murders them got free? If it was your family who was in the line wouldn´t you want to see justice?" And Kitty feels dumb again. "And yes, we´re aware this is unfair. But the Belle´s institution will help the boy to control his powers and will protect him. This is also for his protection"

And finally, the one with a brown suit speaks. "Nevertheless, we need a statement from someone to explain what just happened. We can´t let the Purity cult use this event to propaganda how mutants are dangerous. So, who will speak?" she speaks while looking straight into Kitty´s eyes.

Kitty sighs and her fingers touch his indigo fingers for a moment. "I´ll. Since I did something stupid. I´ll own it" and it seems the right answer as the 4 ladies nod in agreement.

The white hat, once the situation is slowly coming under control, speaks in a more chipper tone. "Oh, you´re Kitty Pryde, right? My daughter is a fan of your photo. She thinks you would make a great Belle for the sith remake of Beauty and the Beast. Is a classic and Disney have no original ideas"

Kitty blinks and is not sure how to respond to this. "Uhm, I think he would make a better Disney Princess," Kitty said and mentally winced. Call a guy a princess is never good. She was thinking he would be offended, yet, Kurt seems delighted.

"Why yes. I try to give this idea to Disney, but, they rehash their own ideas to Death. I would make a great Belle and you, Katzchen, would have made a great Beast/Prince"

"Yeah...I agree. I never wanted to be a princess"

Alex Summers is a man who lives without shame and no regrets. His relationship with Lorna is one of those relationships that Alex looks fondly but knows is broken beyond repair. Alex Summers wants to look for the future and it seems his family is not getting this part.

"So" Jean is rubbing her eyes looking tired as Scott is counting until 10. "You´re dating Kurt´s ex? The one everyone hates?" Jean asked not wanting to look at Alex. Her brother in law is a handful to put nicely.

"Look, I know about her past, but, have anyone here consider that maybe Amanda and Kurt bring the worst from each other? I mean, Scott, Kurt is not exactly a blameless angel" Alex beings and now Scott speaks.

"Ok, fair point. But, still, why you think you and her are better ...whatever this is?"

"Because we both know what we want! I don´t want to marry or anything like that and she doesn´t either. All I want is go to that party, the famous X-men´s gala, with a nice date and people, will stop looking at me as if I´ll burst into tears for my breaking up with Lorna"

"Alex, you left her in the altar!" Scott grits his teeth here.

"The only reason Magneto didn´t do anything drastic with us is that we help him with the Shiars." Jean states annoyed. "If not for that, Genosha would want all of our heads. Hell, Scarlet Witch looks at us with dirty eyes from time to time and is not like WE left Lorna at the altar. IT WAS YOU!"

"I know...I told I was being mind-controlled" Jean gives him the benefit of doubt in this case. His mind on that day was to haywire to be normal. "Plus, she´s dating someone else. I can do this as well. I want to go to that party and have a great time. Is that too much to ask?"

"Fine" Scott agrees tired. 

"Fine" Jean also agrees.

"Thanks. By the way, will the newbies be invited by the party?"

"Originally no, but, Storm wants to do something different and Jubilee says it will be good for them to meet more mutants"
