Rhane, Brian, Betsy and Pete are already members. Xavier in this story
will be dark, just a warning a head of time. This will of course be
Kitty/Pete, but I'll try to work in some Kurmanda and Romy too.
Second note- as for Kitty as a hacker, that's something that Evolution hasn't explored yet but Kitty is a VERY good hacker.
Third note- please ignore the totally sucky first chappie, it'll get better, I promise.
Fourth note- Kitty- 17
Rogue- 18
Kurt- 18
Remy- 24
Pete- 26
Rahne- 15
Brian & Betsy- 20
Yet another note- You guys can pick the other pairings, Rhane, Brian, and Betsy.

Prolog
~*~
Everywhere someone's getting over
Everybody cries and sometimes
You can still lose even if you really try
Talking 'bout the dream like the dream is over
Talk like that won't get you nowhere
Everybody's trusting in the heart
Like the heart don't lie
-Matchbox Twenty

Kitty yawned as she typed a little more, working on her hacking abilities. Feeling bored she decided to get into the Institute's files. After a few minutes she gasped. "Rogue!" she called. The goth approached from the other side of the library. "Look at this."
Rogue pulled up a chair. Kitty cleared her throat and began to read out loud. "Today Hank has discovered a way for the mutant gene to be subdued. We have decided to keep it under wraps due to the fact that Rogue would immediately want to use it. I cannot risk losing her from the dream. If she could control her powers she would immediately leave."
"They lahed ta meh," Rogue whispered.
"The device has been installed in a necklace that Hank keeps in his office," Kitty finished.
"They lahed," Rogue repeated. The usually tough Goth looked close to tears.
"I know," Kitty said. "I'm totally sorry, Rogue."
"It's not yer fault, Kit," Rogue said.
BAMF. "Vhat's wrong?" Kurt asked looking from the concerned angry Kitty to the crushed Rogue. Kitty told him what had happened. "Vhy would ze professor do zat?"
"Ah don't know," Rogue said. "But Ah'm gonna fahnd out."
"I'm going too," Kitty said while printing out the papers.
"Ja, Herr Professor has something to answer for," Kurt said. Together the three stormed into the professor's office where Kitty shoved the papers in his face.
"Care to explain this?" Kitty demanded.
"What on Earth is going on?" he demanded.
"Ya lahed!" Rogue exclaimed. "Ya promised that you'd help meh with mah powers but you lahed! Ah could have touched someone. Ah could have had a life!"
"This is a blatant disregard for my privacy, Katherine," the professor said looking severe.
"Screw your privacy!" Kitty exclaimed. Everyone looked at her, surprised at the Valley Girl's harsh words. "Why would you, like, do that to Rogue, or even Scott? I'm sure he'd, like, totally love to look around with his real eyes."
"Ah'm leavin' tanight," Rogue said. "Ah won't stay here with people who would do this ta meh."
"I'm going with her," Kitty said crossing her arms.
"Ja, me too," Kurt nodded.
"You can't just leave, your parents-"
"Watch us," Kurt said grabbing both of the girls' hands and teleporting them to their room before going to his own room.
"Guys, what are you doing?" Jean asked watching Rogue and Kitty throwing their things in a bag.
"We're leaving," Kitty said.
"Why?" Kitty quickly told her about the device. "There had to be a good reason."
"Right," Rogue said.
"You're just leaving?" Scott, who had overheard the conversation asked.
"Yes," Kitty said looking at a postcard she and the others had gotten from Rahne a couple weeks back. "That's exactly what we're doing."
