Being an assistant professor was trying. She wasn't use to be around children all the time. Being a bomb technician seemed like a less trying job to Emma now. When Storm had invited her here, she knew it would be hard but at least here she could safely learn to control her power. Looking down to her wrist she rubbed the mental bracelet, the small light on it was green.
She let out a slow sigh. Her worse nightmare was it turning red. She wasn't sure who made it for her, but it kept her from accidental going off and nuking the whole state. Her red hair tied back away from her face she looked out over the lawn. Some of the students were outside but they kept her distance from her. They all knew she was basically a professor. "hm." Shaking her head and retaining a laugh. She had never thought of being here.
Leaning back against the bench, she relaxed. 'It was peaceful at Xavier's I'll give it that.'

Kit flew over the grounds, her body one large flame as she did. Flying with her father was one of her favorite pastimes growing up...once she had her power obviously. A stream of flame trailed behind her as she surveyed the campus, making sure everything was in check. It was a boring job since the kids typically behaved and few thought it wise to mess with the school, but still, someone had to do it.
As she flew she noticed the new teacher and thought now was a good time to be friendly, the poor thing looked kinda lonely. "Don't worry, most of the students are like this around new teachers...They'll open up to you sooner or later." She stated with a smile as she landed close to the Emma, making sure to avoid any trees or anything else flammable. "Emma right? I'm Kit." She said as she held out her hand, turning the flames off to revile a woman in her early twenties, dark tanned skin, brown eyes and hair with red streaks running through the short black. A smile showed on her face as she attempted to welcome the new commer, remembering what it was like all those years ago when she first started going to this school.

When the flaming women landed, Emma tried not to gape in aw. Powers like that seemed more useful and less... 'Deadly.' "Yes, its Emma." She took the hand and shook it, quickly releasing it. She still had some painful memories of what had happen to her. Speaking to hide her dwelling on some memories she said, "I'm sure they will. Its not to bothersome. Its lovely here though, I can't understand why some children turn it down. I wish had been able to attend here when I was younger." She gave a small smile and looked at the pattern on the ground.
"Oh, you can sit if you want?" She may had been brought up in an orphanage but she had been taught strict manners.

Kit shrugged a bit. "Some kids just have too much pride, think they're alright on their own...Or they get turned off by the idea of actually following rules and going to class...I suppose there's not one specific reason, but yes, it is a shame when a promising student turns down the offer." She said as she sat, resting her arm on the back of the bench. "I'm sure if we found you earlier you'd have been welcomed with open arms."

Not looking at Kit directly she continued to watch the ground, following the pattern in the stone ground. "Oh I'm sure I would of been accepted but my power didn't emerge until about a year ago. Storm called it late blooming..." She paused for a minute remembering that day, it had been her first week on the job. "Anyway, it just means I have alot of catching up to do on my training." She pointed to the bracelet. "Only thing really keeping me from going nucular. Lucky thing I guess. It may be a god-awfull power but it gives me a chance to help in something I never thought of. A greater purpose I suppose." She looked back up from the ground, and smiled. It was how she looked at her life now, one life had been taken away from her and she had been given a greater purpose instead. "So Prof. Storm, I hear your parents were part of the fantastic four? Thats not something you hear everyday."

After his conversation with Faye David went looking for his sister. He hadnt seen her in what felt like ages and wanted to spend sometime catching up. Last he had seen her was with Leo in the room, and her finding out about the incident with Carol.
He found her talking to a very attractive red head. Helloooo nurse he said out loud he relized, not loud for them to hear he thought. But then again Kit spent alot of time with Grandpa Logan and no idea if that supper hearing might haveerubbed off on her. He heard the last part of the conversation about there parents.
"thats because she;s no where near as chatty as i am. " he said walking up to the two with his hands in his pockets. " Sis, mind introducing the two of us?" he said with a slight wink.

Kit glanced down to the bracelet and smiled. "Well feel lucky there's something that can contain your powers. There used to be a girl here who literally could not touch another living person without hurting them....Poor girl...I wonder what happened to her..." She stated, hoping it would make Emma feel at least a bit better. As she examined the bracelet she nodded a bit at Emma's question. "Fantastic Five thank you very much...My mom joined in after her and my dad got married. She was only in it for about a year or so before she got pregnant.And please, just call me Kit?"
As she spoke she heard her brother's remarks on the conversation. "David you have no idea how chatty I can be." She stated before seeing the wink. "And stop hitting on everything in sight please?" She added along with a smack on the head and a joking smirk. "Emma this is my brother David, David this is one of our new teachers."
Kit turned back to Emma with a smirk. "I hear by apologize for any offensive remarks he will ever say. He doesn't realize that he's not the laddie's man he thinks he is." She said looking to Emma, but her eyes traveling back to David, the tone in her voice a joking one, obviously just teasing her sibling.

Emma, gave a small smile to Kit's remark about the other girl. She knew who she was, Storm had also told her the story. It did in a way make her feel better but more sorry that anyone was stuck with that ability. Before she could respond to much of anything, a boy looking remarkably similar to Kit walked up. Watching the two of them it was oblivious they were siblings. She couldn't help but laughed at the wink. "Oh its quite alright." She said to Kits apology.
"I do think he won't get anyway, because I'm also quite sure I'm at least five to seven years older then you, kid." Standing up, she sighed. "I should get going Kit. I have some assignments to finish for my class. It was nice to meet, both of you." She began to laugh again as she looked at David. 'Oh that makes me feel old.' "Bye." Walking away still smiling, David may not have realized it but he had given her some odd happiness which made everything seem better to her.

David put his hand up and slowly moved it back and forth in the direction Emma was walking away in. It might be mistaken to he was waving good bye, but he was actually trying to get a reading with his empathic powers without physical contact. Something he had been practice after he left his sister and the school and joined the ULTIMATES.
"well i cant tell what i made he feel but i made her feel something." he said sitting next to Kit and nudging her over. " so i just ran into our old pal Faye, Saw Leo, been hit by you multiple times already. and saw a team member Ronoh sent, attending the school now. Good first couple days. and i still have to teach a class."
he leaned back and looked to the sky. " so when i was talking to Faye i got to thinking, why did you never join up with me anyway? If i made it so could you, or at least Join mom and dad's team? Uncle Reed and Ben would have looked having you back."

Kit watched Emma as she left, waving a good bye as she did. "Was nice meeting you." She called back, not sure if she'd get an answer or not. She then turned to her brother who apparently was using his powers and smiled. "I think we made her feel a bit better about herself." She replied crossing her arms.
"Yeah, Leo wanted me to teach him how to fight...After the first few lessons he's gotten rather dissent from it...Not sure why." She replied with a smirk, knowing exactly why...Kit wasn't exactly light on her students. "And you know David, If you guys need my help I'll be right there...What did you think I meant about you never calling? You really think I want to leave all the fun to you?" She replied as she playfully pushed her brother to the side, with no real force behind it. "And as for Uncle Reed and Ben, with dad back in action do you really think they need me? Besides, Mom spent alot of time here, this is where Grandpa is...And it feels kinda nice to know I'm a hand in shaping a generation."
