*Kitty kept her eyes on the ground for a few more moments before she looked up at him. Her eyes stared into his, practically boring into his soul. Her look was intense, as if pleading with her eyes for him to understand because she did not think she could explain it herself. Not knowing if he understood, she perced her lips, trying to hold in the tears that were coming.*
"I..."
*Kitty was about to burst, the words almost escaping her lips. But a slam from a door down the hallway made her jump and she lost it.*
"I have to go."
*She phased through the floor and hit the lower level hard. She didn't break her legs, but they would be sore. She stood and ran to the Danger Room. She needed to hit something.*

He gave her a curious look when she looked up at him. He could tell something was bothering her as their eyes met. When she started to speak, he wasn't sure what would be coming out, but the slam of the door caused his attention to look in that direction. He then looked back as Kitty said she had to go.
"Huh? Kat wait!"
He tried to reach for her when she sunk through the floor, but he was too late. She was acting really weird today, and he couldn't help but wonder what was up. After a couple seconds he sighed and shook his head, turning to head to his room and get it set up for his return.

*As Kitty entered the Danger Room, she noticed that no one was using it to train. This made her feel a little better. She ran up to the operating room up top and put the setting on Shadowcat8, the hardest setting Kitty had yet to beat. She stared at the console and thought, "What the hell." She plunged her hand into the system, her hand phasing inside. She didn't damage the system, but set the training session to Logan's highest setting. His of course was completely impossible for anyone, but it was especially worse because it would not hesitate to kill her. And right now, Kitty wasn't thinking straight or cared if it killed her. She punched the start button and phased through the floor into the giant training room.
*As soon as her head was out of the floor, she was attacked. Armored tentacles attacked her and Kitty barely had enough time to think as they almost didn't phase through her. She landed on the floor of the room and was hit in the back with something hard. She landed a few feet away, face down. But before she could stand up, a tentacle clamped itself around her stomach and lifted her up. It started to squeeze as flying metal razors shot at her. Kitty's mind was thinking as fast as it could, but air wasn't getting to her brain and everything started to darken. Razors cut her cheeks, arms, and legs but the pain didn't bring Kitty out of her daze. One thought, and she phased through the tentacle, razors flying through her, and hit the ground. She was now unconscious. All the mechanics of the room started at her, prepared to kill her.*

Suddenly, everything in the room froze. Vin stood in the control room and had turned it off right before it killed her. She sighed and walked into the Danger Room. She placed her hand on Kitty's forehead and used her empathy to wake her up. Before Kitty could even sit up straight or say anything, Vin spoke first.
"What exactly were you thinking?" her expression was emotionless, but her tone sounded more concerned than angry at her. She couldn't tell why she'd done this from Kitty's emotions, but she'd known she'd been angry at something and made her to not think straight. "You almost got yourself killed."

*Kitty opened her eyes to see Vin. Behind her she saw the mechanics that were about to kill her. Kitty heard what Vin said, but it didn't register totally. She had just about killed herself and why? Because of a silly boy who didn't like her back? She was acting so childish, but she couldn't help it. She had acted rashly without realizing what she was doing. Instead of sitting up or speaking, Kitty started to cry. The tears flowed down her face quickly and Kitty's crying started getting louder and louder. There was nothing she could do, but let it out. It had been so long since she let it out. But then, as she was crying and her eyes closed tight, images of her nightmares started creaping up. Her crying turned to fearful whimpering to full out screams. She could not open her eyes at these terrible images.*

Vin just gave her a blank look until she started crying. She knew it had been over a boy, but now as she sensed Kitty's emotions she knew it was over Bobby. But then she saw the same images of the nightmares, but only glimpses. She was no telepath, but she could tell Bobby hadn't been the only thing on her mind when she'd put it on to Logan's highest setting.
She didn't know Kitty that well, but really didn't want someone running in on her while she was in this state. Especially Bobby... So, she pulled Kitty up to her and hugged her. "Shh," she muttered, but had a feeling it wouldn't do any good. Through her empathy, she tried to calm Kitty down, but she didn't know how well that would work, either. She felt the pain Kitty did, and knew that she was probably the only one who could because of her empathy. And people wonder why I'm emotionless, she thought to herself.

*As the images flashed through her mind, she suddenly felt something strange, and the images blurred. She couldn't tell exactly what, but soon the real world came back to her. Kitty was still crying hard, but was able to open her eyes slowly. The light from above blinded her, but something seemed to be covering her. A body? She suddenly thought it might be a dead body from her nightmares, but then realized it was not cold to the touch, but warm like a soft blanket. As her eyes focused, Kitty saw a woman holding her. The tears slowed and her whimpering slowed to short, sporadic breathes. Kitty looked in the woman's eyes, not knowing exactly who it was, and hugged her. She didn't know what this woman had done, but somehow she had brought Kitty out of her nightmare-state. Quietly, Kitty whispered.*
"Thank you... I think you saved me from something..."

Vin just looked at her and nodded. Her blank expression was back and she pulled the hair out of Kitty's face. "Are you okay now?" she asked. She was to relieved that her empathy had worked. She didn't hear anyone coming so she must've relaxed Kitty before anyone heard her. "Why would you set it on Logan's highest setting?" she spoke softly. Of course, Vin already knew the answer, but thought it would be better for Kitty if she actually talked about it. "It almsot killed you."

*Kitty looked away, seeing the equipment still frozen in place. For the first time, they scared her. Something that shouldn't have been able to kill her was a few seconds from killing her. How stupid...*
"I didn't care about what I was doing. I thought... I thought I would be able to handle it. I thought I was stronger..."
*Kitty felt as if she had cried out the very last tear in her body, but felt if she could, she would pour out every last drop of liquid in her body if it meant letting her emotions out as well.*

Vin watched her gaze at the equipment and sensed her fear for a moment. "You may be stronger, but the state you were in destroyed whatever strength you had. Even if you were stronger, you wouldn't last any more a chance on Logan's setting as you did a few minutes ago. Neither could anyone else, including me," she admitted, although that wasn't entirely true. Vin was a level five, and would definitely last at least a little while on Logan's setting, but she'd never tried it.
She knew Bobby's return must've been hard for her, and had been keeping an eye on their relationship for a while, empathetically of course. If Kitty would trust her with her secrets, then she knew that Kitty would feel better. But maybe right now isn't the best time to share secrets, Vin thought.

*Rogue was paying little mind to anything or anyone while she wandered the grounds. Since she had dyed her hair, she was attracting many more stares. Some of the students didn't even recognize her, which whe found quite comicial. She exhaled sharply as a small cluster of people caught her eye. She squinted, hoping to see them better, suprised to find that Bobby was among them. She smiled and almost started dashing for him, but she stopped herself and gazed down at the folders clenched between her fingers and sighed. It had been far too long since thier last reunion. She wouldn't be suprised if he didn't even recognize her so she decided to do something very female.*
*She tossed her hair over her shoulder and began to read the contents of the folder and continued to walk past them*

He was heading back from his group of friends who had come to visit him. Rogue was too slow in moving to hide herself, and even though she had died her hair, he still noticed her. He smiled and walked up to her, or rather sneaking up behind her. He moved up, sliding his arms around her midsection and holding her, making sure his skin didn't touch hers, but he did manage to kiss her hair on the back of her head.
"You look great Rogue, I've missed you."

*She merely arched a brow at this. Just because she was now blonde that didn't mean she was stupid. Part of her was tempted to relax into his embraced, but she wouldn't let herself do that. She exhaled a slightly irritated sigh.*
"Yeah, I'm sure you did."
She pulled out of his embrace, turned, and glared at him.
"So I guess they don't have phones or a post office where you went to."

His hold loosened when she she spoke. Was she mad at him? He looked to her strangely when she spoke. He had important stuff to do, had been dealing with his family and fighting Pyro, and the only one who seemed to welcome him when he came back was Kat. He sighed.
"I'm sorry I didn't call or write, but I was busy while I was away. It was a tough time trying to reason with my family and dealing with that hot headed ex friend of mind. By the way, nice to see you to."

*She exhaled an experated sigh and shook her head.*
"I'm sorry. That was uncalled for. I'm just really flustered right now and everything is explodin' and I can't to nothin' 'bout it and you not stayin' in touch sort of just...broke the camel's back. I'm sorry. Speakin' of which, how did your family reunion go?"
Rogue wasn't very fond of Bobby's family, to be blunt, and she was sure the feeling was mutual.
