Past 19
N/A: Finally, here we go. This story is coming to an ending. YEAH. I like to end my stories. So, here we go.
After Amanda´s bombastic declarations about Kitty and her former teacher things went haywire, more or less, first Ororo and Jean asked if Kitty did have a relationship with her former teacher- she denied ever having a crush on the older man, but, as Jean was giving such uncanny glare...she confessed. An innocent crush that never went anywhere- and well, Kitty can´t back out nor she wants to.
Once Ororo and Jean got confirmation nothing ever happened with Kitty and her older teacher- She´s acutely aware that Kurt Wagner wanted to know this man´s full name and address if he really had overpast any boundaries. That wasn´t really necessary but is sweet of him- more questions arrive.
"What you´ll do?" and Kurt is the one to apologize-as if he´s to blame about his ex being insane. And Kitty tells him such. No, Kurt, you have nothing to apologize here- and Kitty could let this die out. She could...but she now wants to beat Amanda up.
"Guess I have no choice...time to beat Amanda up!"
Yana is the one giddy with this news. Even though Kitty is not a witch or affiliated of any form, and she explained this to Maddy of all people, has no qualms in talking about the rituals of combat among witches.
"Brutal...the weak perish. The strongest wins!" Yana states happily. And once the others are looking at her disconcerted - minus Kitty. She´s used by now- she explained herself again. "death matches are a big no for witches...it sort defeats the whole purpose of a magic community. The matches are just to show who is the strongest and who is the weakest...as Kitty said before, she´s no witch so in terms of magic community...there´re no stakes here" and this seems to enlight some people.
Kurt has a sorrowful expression on his face. "I know Amanda...she follow the wind ways, as she once called" Yana snorted and told how low on the totem she is now. "still, she has magic...will she be able to hurt Kitty?"
Yana shakes her head. "She´s really weak, Kurt. A civilian can defeat her..." then she stops and looks at Kitty. "then again, arrogance is never wise...Kitty, do you have a plan?"
And Kitty´s head inclines up. Resting on the back of her chair. "If I killed her...will I face charges?" and Yana now is pondering. Kurt is worried for Kitty´s sake and Ororo is looking at Jean as if this murderous idea is all linked to Jean.
To be fair, Jean is never shy to blame Emma Frost nor to how she could handle the Emma problem. Right now, Jean is doing just that.

Emma Frost´s bodyguard is on her side as a new video from the X-men is updated. Emma is hesitating to open as the face of Kitty Pryde is evident. Her blue eyes land on Kitty and she asks to her bodyguard-Elektra, the Grecian woman likes to use weapons linked to ninjas- "What you think of Kitty Pryde?"
No response.
Emma rolls her eyes. "I´ll not fire you or take your payment...I´m curious about it"
"I have no thought about Kitty. She seems the typical girl-next-door the Americans love...I´ve got no opinion so far about her" Elektra replied thoughtfully.
Is enough for Emma. Now, she clicks on the video.
"I´m aware that Amanda Szardos has challenged me to combat. I was thinking of saying no. I have no desire to follow through...or that what I thought until she sends her last video. I never slept with my teacher and I don´t like defamation...so, Amanda Szardos, I´m coming to win this combat and make you eat your words" her eyes land to the right. The camera isn´t showing what she´s seeing. "by the way, don´t call your ex-dog...Amanda, it makes you look like a bitch"
Emma is now pondering. "Elektra, I´d not want to be here...let´s book a trip to any place"
Elektra is mute for a few minutes. "You have a business to attend in London...why not go now and do what you must quickly this year?"
"I´ll give you a raise"

Amanda has a big grin. She knows about Kitty´s power. Phasing isn´t amazing. And Amanda has magic- she can throw small lasers- and she´ll claim Kurt and will have a place in the X-men once and for all.
Amanda is wearing little to accentuate her body. In contrast to Kitty Pryde-she´s wearing a blue dress for reasons beyond her understanding or anyone else-and Amanda can laugh at Kitty Pryde´s face. And can taste victory.
"Dog, I´ll get you in a minute...I have to take care of looses ends" Amanda said and this makes Kitty frowns. No signal of the big names witches and Amanda knows victory will be sweet.
If people were expecting an epic battle among two ladies, well, it will have to wait another day. Before Amanda could cast a spell, and she knows a few for this situation- Kitty punches her face hard enough and block her arms.
"Listen, bitch, I couldn´t care less what you say about me, frankly...people like you I did eat in my breakfast in High School...but, Kurt is my friend and I hate when you call him a dog. He´s not a dog, he´s a person and he´s free from you. Got it?" Kitty hissed the final words.
Amanda is feeling pain and she knows no spell for that. "I love him" a nice lie that could render Kitty to be more forgiving or so Amanda hope.
And Kitty still remains to block her arm. Twisting it. And now immobilizing Amanda in the ground. "No, you abuse him. What he told me. What the media show and what you are showing now...is abuse, not love...but, I know you can´t understand this"
And in the end, the big names witches did show up. To arrest Amanda.
"Curse you, Kitty Pryde!" Amanda said wincing, moreover, Kitty gives her back to Amanda not bothering with anything else.

Kurt meets Kitty. The combat lasted a few minutes and it was shared by the entire world. Her brown eyes look in concern at him. "Hey, are you ok?"
"You ask me that...you´re the one" and chuckles amused. "I´m fine...I know Amanda is ...a terrible person...and thank you, for you know"
Kitty smiles now. "Silly elf, that´s what friends are for"
