Mortimer sighed and knocked on the door to the mansion. He didn't really want to live there, but he couldn't stay at the brotherhood house any longer; not with Wanda and St. John making out nonstop. He had no where else to go.

Kitty walked to the door. She was fully decked out...one of her students saw that it was a Brotherhood member and ran to the nearest X-man. It just so happened the one most likely to kill a Brotherhood member was the first one he came across.
With a growl Kitty phased through the door and crossed her arms. "What do you need Toad?"

Oh crap... He put down the suitcase and put his hands up. "Look, I'm not here to hurt anyone," he said, "I just need a place to stay."

Kitty blinked and stared before she just laughed, "You can't be serious?" She remembered the last time this happened. And Lance lasted three days...Toad wouldn't last one.

"I am," he said, lowering his hands. "I can't stay there any more. I just can't."

"You were the first member...how can you not?" That didn't make sense. It'd be like Scott leaving the X-men...it wouldn't work.

"I just can't," he said. "It's really complicated."

Kitty just glared, "I have time." She really didn't she had to do things but if she was letting this man in her home she was going to make sure that he wasn't here to spy or something.

He sighed. He didn't want to talk about it, but he knew he'd have to. "It's Wanda," he said. The woman I love just took advantage of me and is making out with some stupid crocidile-humping Australian. "She's...I just can't stay in that house with her any more."

Kitty just blinked, "Don't you like love her or something?" He was lucky he looked so meek and pathetic...otherwise she'd have booted him off to property.

He nodded pathetically. "We had this argument," he said. He swallowed the lump that was forming in his throat. "She...look, I thought that we had something, but she was just using me. I can't stay there anymore."

Kitty rolled her eyes Brotherhood boys had more drama than they girls at the mansion. "Ok ok...so why'd you come here...you hate us...passionately."

"I have nowhere else to go," he said. "I don't have a family, I have no money..."

Kitty sighed, "Fine..." she opened the door and said, "Follow me"

"Thanks." He followed Kitty into the house.

Kitty just said, "You're welcome." and began leading him to an empty room.

He followed her, not as aware of his surroundings as he should have been.

Kitty eyed Toad but wouldn't say anything until they were out of the ears of the kids.

Most of the kids were staring at him, probably wondering why in the world a member of the Brotherhood had showed up at the mansion and wasn't trying to blow it up. He ignored them and continued following Kitty.

Kitty was going to take him to the most secluded room in the house...mostly for his own protection...and because of the fact he smells. And one of those smells she wasn't sure about she'd have to ask Jean or Logan to figure out if she was right.

"Where exactly are we going?" he asked, noticing that they were heading deeper and deeper into the mansion, further away from other people and further away from exits.
