Kerri was just a normal teenager with maybe a little worse than normal home life, and an ok but dull school life. That is, until she one day develops an interesting problem. She gains mutant powers, and her appearance starts changing randomly with her emotions. Now she has to try and keep those under a tighter lock than before, because mutant hysteria has hit her town, and she went from an unknown quiet bookworm to the topic on everybody's tongue. Then it really hits the fan at home and she has to leave before it gets worse. Luckily, Professor Charles Xavier finds her and saves her from the streets before something unthinkable can happen to her. Unfortunately it took him a year to find her and she's withdrawn from the world, and isn't used to socializing with humans anymore. And then there's Kurt, code name Nightcrawler. He's a mutant too, and has been treated differently his whole life because of the way he looks. The best day of his life was coming to the institute and getting the hologram that hides the way he really looks so he can finally look like everyone else. But when the newest student comes to the school, he finds himself judging her by looks too. Until she pushes him into showing her his true appearance and marks his life as the first person to ever tell him that he looks better without the hologram. Then, as promised, she shows him what she really looks like and he falls for her. Too bad there's only two trimesters left of his senior year before he graduates. Will Kurt be able to pull Kerri out of her shell before he graduates and has to find what to do next with his life? And what about the pressures of high school and the anti mutant society that are always there at the edge of their life?

Finally, Kurt and Kerri have the chance to be together without anyone getting in the way! Or do they? Everything seems fine at first, but after a mission to save a child from a group calling themselves "the Push" they get a surprise. Kerri's not sure what to do about it, but she knows it's not fair to Kurt, so she hides it for the time being. Meanwhile, "the Push" is larger than they thought, only being the front for an extremely rich benefactor who has their hands in more than a few pies and is intent in getting their way. Only, the consequences of the benefactor's actions may have lasting effects on Kerri, and therefore Kurt, forever. Suddenly Kerri's gone and no one knows where she is. Kurt doesn't believe for a moment what Scott says about her running away to hide, but then, where is she, and who can find her? If the X-Men can manage to find Kerri and to get rid of the benefactor, will they be able to make it back to life as they knew it, or will it be changed forever? And what about the damage left behind? Surely the Professor will be able to clean it up, right?

Their mission: rescue the new mutant they have discovered. Their problem: she's dangerous and has no control over her powers. So what happens when Nightcrawler becomes the only one that can stop her? Will she open up to the X-men? Will she gain control over her powers? Find out what happens when this rebellious and ill-control-powered mutant moves into the Institute.

Last year: Kurt and Kerri have come clean, telling each other 'I love you' and now they're closer than ever, hardly being apart, and another piece of good news came; Kurt was chosen to take over as the new Drama teacher after Professor LeBeau leaves at the end of this year. This year: now Kurt is going to be a teacher and Kerri is still a student. Of course, teacher-student relationships are not allowed, and Scott is determined to make sure that the rules are followed to the letter, so what are they going to do? The solution seems clear; keep quiet and don't kiss. It's going to be hard, but they really love each other, and Kitty and Piotr made it for a year and a half, they can do it for only one. Scott seems to have it in for Kerri, though, and watches them like a hawk, waiting for them to toe a boundry, and Kurt tells Kerri that he thinks it would be better to not be together while they stick it out. Only, what's that Kerri sees in the library? Is Kurt really flirting with another student? Couldn't be, right? But now she's doubting if it's really the rules that made them break up, even though Kurt insists that he still loves her. Then Kerri runs into a boy they met a while ago and he asks her out on a date. At first she refuses, but decides that maybe she should try to get over Kurt... Is Kurt really flirting with another student? Will Kerri's attempts to get over Kurt work, or only make things worse? Can their love survive Scott's watchful eye?
