Chapter 1
N/A: I love Kurt Waggoner being a genius and Kitty being the normal smart one. Thinking on the boys club genius Marvel created...I can´t help to want to write something with them.
The Hellfire Academy is a place with a complex story, to say the least. The older members did engage themselves in fights with the X-men in the past until the new leader of the Hellfire decides to put a stop on the fights. Emma Frost wanted to starts anew and soon the X-men and Hellfire formed a tense alliance.
When you have to face racist giant robots, any help is welcome. The obscure past of orgies and deprivation is put in the past as now is a school to mutants and a young prodigy to study.
A curious fact, Emma Frost and Scott Summer make some calls to several leaders of each major country (the political ones and the mutants ones) to craft schools and agencies to mutants. To conscientize the people about their own humanity.
Captain Germany and Captain Britain share this idea and soon Europe has agencies and schools to keep those children safe. Of course, nothing is perfect, but, is far better than in the past.
Secretly, each school competes to see which one is the better, so far Emma Frost smiles pleased as her academy is the superior one. Captain Germany is not happy with this fact nor with one of his own mutants preferring to study in such an academy.
At moment, Scott and Emma Frost are talking with their last candidate, this one, according to Emma is an especial case. Kitty Pryde.
“You see, normally the administration would take care of this part” Emma speaks present with Kitty and her parents. Scott is good in many things but talking with parents is not one of them. “But, in your daughter´s case, we make an exception”
Kitty Pryde blinks at that and Teresa Pryde is trying to comprehend the situation. “Are you saying” Teresa gets the word after the shock is finally gone “ my daughter get a full scholarship to Hellfire?”
“Yes, we believe the Hellfire can be a good school for your kid´s ability and ” Emma stated and Kitty is deeply confused. Intellectual? Well, you use your brain to do many things so...does that count?
“I don´t know what to say.” Teresa speaks once again and looks at her daughter “Kitten, do you want to go to this school?”
“Yes”
Kitty´s arrival to the academy did make into the news, at least, is what Kitty think as many other parents are looking at her. She spots dr Hank Pym looking at Kitty displeased then back at his own daughter Hope.
“They really bring this girl here, huh?” Hank looks at Hope with a fierce determination “I want you to be better than her, do you hear me?! his eyes narrow and Hope shivers as she remains silent “No daughter of mine will be less, you carry my name, you must be better than the others, especially this Kitty Pryde…” the or else can be heard and Hope only replied yes, sir.
A kind smile forms on his face as the man pats her shoulder. “And have fun, sweetie”
Kitty is with Emma Frost and by the looks of it, the woman is calling someone. A loud bamf is heard as Kitty is wondering where the brimstone smokes come from. “Kitty, this is one of our best students, this is Kurt Waggoner”
Kitty stops looking at the smoke to look at the blue student and her eyes fill with joy that is matched by her smile. “You´re Nightcrawler” the excitement never leaves her presence “you´re the hero who saved the world against Stryder. Is an honour to meet you”
The blue boy pulls his hood on as now there´s only a hoodie, instead, of his face. “Danke” the words are spoken with a thick accent.
“Kurt, can you be a dear and take Kitty to know the school?” Emma only smirked at his antics “I would do myself but I have business to attend and you´re the best student we have, seems fair Kitty learns from the best”
Kurt Waggoner nods and awkwardly gesture Kitty to follow along. The hoodie remains. Kitty thinks she has made the right decision.
