Firsthand History- Monday- 1st period

The students had received an email to meet at the Danger Shop, which looked and felt like a windy day on a North Carolina beach in December.

"Sorry if it's a little chilly," Kitty greeted them. "Welcome to Firsthand History. I'm your teacher, Kitty Pryde-Barton, and I don't really care what you call me since I'm still getting used to one of those names a little. In this class, we're going to visit certain times in history, where you'll get to see what it was actually like to be there. And since there are a lot of different timelines and universes represented at this school, I'm basing this class off of this particular world's timeline. Depending on the situation, we may be in here, or we may portal off to wherever it is. I'll let you know ahead of time. And because this is what we're doing, I want to know what kinds of things you want to see. Whether it's seeing a world event or just visiting a specific time period, I'd like to make sure you can see what you're actually interested in seeing. So since you're going to be doing introductions all week, let's start there. Tell me your name, when and where you're from, and what you want to see."

And then once the last student had introduced themselves, Kitty stepped aside, where the students should see a very old plane in the background. "By the way, if you're wondering where we are, welcome to Kitty Hawk, North Carolina in 1903. Enjoy the flight."

"Yeah. It's from a song I like," she replied. "Fit me better than my old name."

Negasonic paused a moment as she wasn't clear on how this kind of thing worked here on an island that's a nexus and all that other crap.

"So... Back home there's another you. Younger. And no hyphenated last name."

That actually broke her usual sullen facade.

"Wait. What?" She asked before regaining some composure. "What's she like?"

That seemed to work for Negasonic as she paused to think about it and shrugged.

"Sounds about right."

"Um. Teaching?"

To her credit, Negasonic did not say "duh" aloud but it certainly was implied.

"Yeah. But Douchepool teaches here too. Not sure I'd call this a qualified institution."
