"So, Camille." Jean started, making said girl turn her head to look at Jean. "Do you think that you'll like it here?"

"I hope so." Camille nodded, a large grin forming on her lips as she looked to her newly formed friends. "I've never really been anywhere outside of my house, so this is a first."

"What?!" Jubilee screeched, making Camille flinch at the noise as she looked to Camille with a look of horror. "Are you saying you've never been to the mall? Or out camping?!"

"No, no I've been to the mall." Camille shook her head as a pink hue dusted her cheeks. "But camping, no. I wasn't aloud to."

"Vhy not?" Kurt asked, grasping his hands behind his back as he turned his head to look at Camille. "Did your parents not let you?"

"Well... sort of." Camille shrugged in response, her tail flicking curiously behind her as she looked around at the mansion, taking in its large windows and doors. "It was also my choice. Hey, so how do you guys not get lost all of the time?"

"You get used to it after a while." Was Scotts reply, tossing a friendly grin Camille's way as he did so. "I'm pretty sure we've all gotten lost a few times."

"I haven't!" Kurt exclaimed as a proud look appeared on his face. "Zough, I did teleport into someone's room once... it vasn't a very pleasant experience."

"Camille, can I ask you a question?" Jean asked as she stopped walking, making everyone follow suit as she turned to Camille.

"Well, you kind of just did." Came Camille's laughter, earning her a few snickers in amusement, but she still nodded. "Sure, yeah."

"Would you mind demonstrating your abilities to us?" Jean questioned, pointing to an open field that was a few yards away. "I mean your communication abilities."

"Oh, uh... sure." Camille shrugged, looking around at the small fields for animals, but not spotting any. "How though? There are no animals."

"There's birds nest up in that tree." Warren suddenly stated, his finger pointing towards a tall tree in the distance.

Everyone, expect for Camille, turned to the boy with looks of confusion and shock. "How would you know that?" Scott asked, raising an eyebrow.

"That, is none of your business." Was Warrens sharp reply, grabbing Camille's arm as he walked towards the tree. "It's on the fifth branch to the top."

"Do you vant me to teleport you?" Kurt asked, hurrying to Camille's side as she was led closer to the tree. "I vouldn't mind."

"No, it's okay." Camille shook her head as she smiled, turning to the tree as she stopped a few feet in front of it. "Danke."

"Willkommen." Kurt replied quickly as he nodded, but his eyes suddenly widened. "Vait, you speak German?!"

"More or less." Camille shrugged as she looked away from the tree and to her group of friends. "Most of my family is from Munich, so I know a bit."
