part one
Takes place the same night as the Halloween incident.
Xavier arranged for the therapist to come in right away, after seeing the three teens sit vacantly on the couch for the better part of an hour. She arrived, and he ushered her into an office,while thanking her for coming right away.
-Kitty-
" Now, Ms Pryde, why don't you tell me what happened tonight." The therapist starts.
" Okay, well, like, it was ,like horrible. First,Rogue,totally tricked me into, like coming with her and the brat squad trick-or-treating. Then she,like, totally abandoned us, to like, go talk to her stalker-boyfriend thing. Which is like,totally uncool, because she was the one that was supposed to be watching them, but instead she's off talking to him. Which is like,totally stupid,or whatever, because like, he totally kidnapped her a few months ago. Or at least I think he did, cause like Logan said he did,but when she got back, she like totally wasn't all traumatized .. I think that if you were kidnapped you'd be like, traumatized, wouldn't you? So maybe she,like just ran away with him,or something. Anyway...ummm, what were we talking about?"
" What happened tonight." The therapist says,while rubbing her temples.
"Oh yeah,right. Like, so anyway. What happened was, I was like,busy trying to keep track of the brat squad,cause like I said, Rogue, totally ditched us, and Like, Rahne was all 'blah,blah,blah,whine,whine' about...something I don't remember. Anyway , and then like,I turned around to like, look for Jamie, and like he was sitting on the curb eating pixie sticks. Do you know what's in pixie sticks? I'm like pretty sure, that it's like completely sugar. And then I like tried to get over to him, and stop him before he could eat anymore. But then,he like found some sort of chocolate, in his bag. "
Kitty then stares off into space for several minutes, before the therapist prompts " and then what happened?"
" Then...then i-it started. There were Jamies everywhere. They were destroying everything,and laughing. It was,like horrible. No one should ever let him have sugar...EVER! "
Kitty now curls herself into a ball, crying openly, while the therapist tries to comfort her. After several minutes of this,Logan calmly walks into the room, states " That's enough now,Half-Pint" and dumps a bucket of ice water on the traumatized teen. He turns to the therapist who is looking rather shocked and appalled. " Ya got ta get her to stop pretty early, or the only thing that'll bring her out of it shopping. And shopping...is just scary with her." Before he calmly walks out of the door.
The therapist returns her attention to the still sputtering girl, who suddenly sits up and says " Did he like,say shopping?! Yay! I'm driving!" Before jumping up and running out of the room. The therapist calmly writes up her notes,as in the distance you can hear, first Kitty excited squeals and Logan's reluctant groans. Followed by the screeching of tires and the sound of metal screeching as she hits the gate. Followed by screams in the distance as pedestrians jump out of her way.
-Rogue-
A few minutes later,the goth slumps in. The angry teen glares daggers at the therapist,who in turn calmly questions " Would you like to talk about it?"
" Would I like to talk about what? The fact that I can never touch another person with out putting them into a coma? How about how I was adopted by a pair of psychopathic bitches that wanted to use me to unleash ultimate evil. Or I know how about the fact that the closest I've come to a real first date was getting kidnapped by my stalker to use me for my powers and my first kiss was while I was under the control of a crazed hypnotist so I don't even remember it."
"Well..um" The therapist starts but is interrupted by Rogue continuing her rant.
" Then there's the fact that my roommates is easily the most annoying, hyperactive girl on. the. planet. or that my best friend/ kind of boyfriend type thing is the same guy who kidnapped me. Who for some crazy reason is completely into me even though he claims to be a ladies' man, and as mentioned, I. can. not. touch. anyone. That kind of limits what we can do you know? How messed up is that?!"
" Well, um, actually, I meant what happened tonight."
" Do you want to tell me what happened?"
"...AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"
The scream continued for another ten minutes, a rather impressive feat... but then Kurt is her brother. Just as Ms. Therapist thought she would loose her mind, or at least her ability to hear, said brother walked into the room and waved a chocolate bar in front of Rogue.
Abruptly, the screaming ended. Then Rogue reached out and snatched the candy from Kurt while hissing " Mine!" and rushing out the door. Kurt shrugs at the startled therapist,and states " Chocolate.. It always works.." Before poofing away.
-Remy-
Gambit casually walks into the room and sits in the chair recently occupied by Rogue. Before the therapist can say anything he begins.
"Okay.. First I'm sure by now,you've heard this 'stalker' rumor. Or this 'kidnapping' story... but if I were a stalker would I really be the only one who knows that her real name is Anna or that she secretly loves babies? Okay so I learned the Anna thing my hacking into the Mississippi DMV... but the baby thing she told me... while we were on VACATION. That's right. It was a vacation. Admittedly it was an unplanned vacation, and I may have drugged her and tied her up to get her to come with me... but it was still a vacation. She could have left at anytime after I untied her. And we had a lot of fun."
" Okay, well"
" Anyway... about tonight. There I was minding my own business, following Rogue looking for a chance to talk to her,just like I do everyday, when she spotted me. She came over and we started talking about what movie to go see when we don't go out on our not-date tomorrow, we do that every week, when all of a sudden, out of no where, this herd of crazed sugar hyped kids descended on us! It was awful, I did my best to hold them back and protect my Roguey. The Mr Claws and Mr Furry showed up, and we wrangled all the kids into a truck that I may or may not have borrowed... which I promise I'll return as soon as I am done here... unless I forget."
" So how did this herd of children make you feel."
" I was terrified. And I was engaged to a psychopathic assassin,worked for Buckethead for a year, and drove a bus into a weird spirit bug thing."
" Well I feel better, I think I'll go give Roguey some more chocolate then head home. Goodnight"
With that Gambit jumped up and walked out of the door the therapist thoroughly confused behind him.
-After-
" As you know, Charles, I can't discuss what is said in session...but those kids need help. Seriously.. I'll be back next week."
" All right. We'll see you then" Said Charles as he leads her to the door , completely ignoring the screaming,fighting, breaking objects coming from the rec room, and Logan chasing Remy off the property. These were far to common for him to note anymore.
