Chapter 6 - next day?

Jin woke up after training most of the day yesterday, having lost himself in the thrill of fighting and trying to control his powers, he even had X-23 ask him to spar with her after she saw how good he was at fighting, so they spared until jin noticed it was past midnight, so he called it quits and went back to his room.

"Man, we went hard yesterday...well, she did, even when holding back, she still couldn't touch me, but man, it was fun," Jin said as he stood up and started getting dressed. Then there was a knock on the door.

"Come in," Jin said, and Colossus walked in.

Good morning, I heard rumors you had a fun night with X-23," Colossus said 

"Don't... say it like that, it sounds weird, but yeah, we spared for most of the night," Jin said as he threw a uniform shirt on

Colossus laughed and patted Jin on the back.

"Right, anyway, I wanted to know if you'd be interested in joining any of today's classes?" Colossus asked

"Hmm, I mean, sure, but I'm not the smartest," Jin said as Colossus handed Jin a piece of paper.

"This has all the classes we offer on it, you can sit in on any that interest you, the professors already know you might drop by, as it's the X-Men themselves that teach here," Colossus said 

"Hmm. Alright." Jin said as he read over the paper, "So, any fun classes? Or are they all boring?" Jin asked 

"Well, some of the teachers put in effort to keep things interesting, like Hank, who tries to put a fun spin on his mutant physiology class," Colossus said, causing Jin to nod. 

"Alright. I'll head over and check his class out," Jin said as Colossus walked him to Hank's class.

-------------------------------

"Hank, Jin decided to come sit in on one of your classes," Colossus said as Jin and he entered the room, as it seemed he was between classes right now.

"Ah, well, that's fantastic, it's always a wonderful thing to see new mutants eager to know more about themselves," Hank said as he put a hand on Jin's shoulder. 

"I'll try to keep up. But obviously I'm probably not up to the knowledge as your usual class is." Jin said 

"All that matters is you're willing to try to learn, take whatever seat you like. There are no assigned seats in my class, make it quick, students are going to flood in fast, don't want to miss out on the good seats," Hank said with a chuckle as Jin nodded and went and sat in the back of the class.

True to Hank's word, students started flooding into the class. Jin saw some familiar faces that he recognized from the comics, and even a few he had already met, like Rogue, who decided to sit next to Jin as she had questions for the man who was seemingly unaffected by her powers. 

But she never got to ask any questions, as Jin focused on the lesson. Due to Sung Jin Woo's mind, he was able to intake all of the information that Hank was teaching with ease, and before he knew it, the class was over, and Hank walked up to Jin before Rogue could try to speak to him. 

"So, how did you like the lesson> Hopefully not too boring for you," Hank said with a chuckle

"NO, not at all, I was actually able to follow along pretty easily, you're a really good professor," Jin said 

"Well, thank you, you're always welcome to sit in for another class," Hank said

"I'll definitely do so, it's really interesting to know what separates mutants and humans," Jin said as he stood up. 

"I'll hold you to it," Hank said with a laugh as Jin walked out, to where he was descended upon by Rogue with Questions 

"What are your powers? How were ya able to touch me?" Rogue said in her southern accent, leading Jin to chuckle 

"Well, hello to you too, and I don't know fully what my powers are," Jin said with a shrug. 

" You don't even know what y'er powers are, and you decided to touch someone who could have killed you!" Rogue said as she walked next to Jin, who started walking away 

"Pretty much, I knew I wouldn't get hurt," Jin said, causing Rogue to groan. 

"Blown straight out stupid-town are-n'tcha?" Rogue said with a reluctant sigh

"Well, I'd never, you kiss yo' momma with that mouth?" Jin said, playfully mocking her southern accent 

"Just cause you're immune to my powers doesn't mean I won't slap ya," Rogue said, causing Jin to laugh. 

"So, what class are you going to? Anything interesting?" Jin asked as he had no destination

"Mutant history 101," Rogue said 

"Mind if I tag along? I ain't got shit else to do." Jin said bored 

"Free country." Rogue shrugged, causing Jin to follow her to all the classes she attended for the rest of the day, and he found it surprisingly easy to learn everything being taught.

"Welp, guess this is where we split, Imma go train," Jin said to Rogue in the hallway.

"Yep. I'll probably be in there later, so I might see ya," Rogue said as she gave a little wave and left Jin to go train, who eagerly went to the Danger room, only this time it's packed full of students, so he tried his best to train away from them all.

After a few hours of training, he snapped out of his training to Rogue, who walked up to him. 

"Still here? Tryna work yourself to death so soon after getting here?" Rogue said with a smile 

"Huh? Oh, umm, I just get really caught up in training and everything kind fades away, ya know?" Jin said as he absentmindedly balanced his daggers on his fingers 

"Well. Need a dance partner? I need a good training session." Rogue said 

"Sure, just let me know if I'm moving too fast for ya," Jin said with a smirk 

"Oh you little shit, we'll see who's to fast for who," Rogue said as they trained for the next few hours
