Chapter One
"Rogue! Rogue!" Kitty ran into her room.
"Have you ever heard of knocking?" Rogue asked.
"It's my room too, you know." Kitty sat on her own bed.
"Okay, well what do you want? I'm busy." Rogue tried to rush Kitty out of the room.
"Busy? Doing what?" Kitty walked over to Rogue's side of the room.
Rogue glared at her. "Just tell me what you came in here for. Unless all you needed was to get something, shut up, get it and go."
"No, I have to tell you something."
"Which is what?"
"I thought of the most fantastic idea." Kitty smiled.
Rogue stared at her with a blank expression. "Okay, now can you go?"
"Well, don't you want to hear it?"
"Your not going to give me a chioce so just tell me and go."
"Let's have a karaoke night." Kitty jumped up and down.
Rogue stared at her with the same blank expression she had before again. "You want to have a what?"
"A karaoke night."
"Where did this come from?"
"Lance. He has a karaoke machine and let me borrow it." Kitty explained.
"Why did you want to borrow it and why does the freak even have one?" Rogue asked.
"He's not a freak. He's exactly like you and me." Kitty defended him.
"Okay, whatever. Go have fun." Rogue turned her music back on.
"Please?" Kitty shut it off.
Rogue sighed. "Kitty, I don't want to discuss this anymore. We have a Danger Room session soon and I want to finish--"
"Come on, ladies," Logan walked past the door. "Time to go to the Danger Room. Suit up."
"We are." Rogue left the room.
Kitty followed her. "Please, Rogue? Lance is doing it."
"Oh, wow, I really want to do it now." Rogue rolled her eyes.
"No," Kitty tripped over her foot trying to keep up with Rogue. "I mean, Lance and I are doing it and it'll be boring with just two people."
Rogue stopped. "And you think just one more person is going to make it a blast?"
Kitty stopped and stood beside her. "No, we're going to get more people to do it. Please? We'll have it after the Danger Room session and then you can continue working on whatever is was that you were just working on after the karaoke night is all over. Please? It'll be really fun with you."
"So, what you just said is that it'll be fun with me. But will it be fun for me?" Rogue asked.
"It all depends on how many and who we have to do it." Kitty answered.
Kurt ran past the girls. "Come on, Rogue! Pick up the pace!"
"Shut up, Kurt!" Rogue started running after him.
"Rogue!" Kitty ran. "Are you going to answer me or not?"
"Good work, kids. That was a nice prctice today." Scott praised.
Kitty panted from running so much. "Rogue--"
Rogue cut her off. "If I say yes, will you leave me alone for the rest of the week?"
"Yes."
"Actually, no," Rogue thought about it some more. "For the rest of the month?"
Kitty shook her head. "No."
Rogue nodded. "Yeah, well...I'll take the week as an advantage."
"Thanks...A lot..." Kitty still gasped for breath.
Rogue panted a little too. "Who else is doing it?"
Lance, Scott, Tabitha, Beast, Bobby, Jubilee, Kurt, Spyke, Storm, Logan, Jean and Professor X were sitting down in the living room.
"Did they all actually agree to do this without a fight?" Rogue asked.
"Um," Kitty lowered her voice to a whisper. "Logan had some trouble agreeing right away."
Rogue's voice turned to a whisper. "Oh...Why are we whispering?"
Kitty made a weird face. "Okay, guys," She motioned for Rogue to sit down and she got up in front of everyone. "As you all know, this is karaoke night. Lance and I thought of this and we're using Lance's karaoke machine. We were bored, so that's why we decided to do this crazy thing. So, we can get started now. Who wants to go first?"
No one offered.
"Professor X?" Kitty asked.
"Oh, um, sure." Professor X didn't really want to do the karaoke night.
Lance went over to the karaoke machine. "I'll work this baby."
"Okay. I think we're all set. We can go." Kitty nodded to Lance and sat down.
"Okay, X--" Lance began.
"Professor X, if you don't mind." Professor X gave him a little glare.
"Right, sorry...Ready?"
"Yes."
"Here we go..."
Liquid
courage The
masquerade has How do you know?
Pouring down
Sober surface
Hits the ground
Started now
And you have faded
Into the
crowd
How do you know just who your
friends are?
How do you know when you've gone too far
To get
high again?
"You had Professor X sing this song?" Rogue asked.
Kitty shrugged. "Go talk to the man who's controlling the songs."
You
always feel so alone
The real you is never shown
Whose
influence?, Whose influence
Are you under??
Now
So much
pressure to fit in
You never know where to begin
Whose
influence?, Whose influence
Are you under??
Now
"Who sings this crap?" Logan asked.
"It's not crap!" Bobby disagreed.
"Compared to rap it is, but no, this is not crap." Spyke added.
Bobby nodded. "Yeah."
Logan sighed. "I need to get away from all of these kids..."
Liquid
courage There's
no denial How do you know?
Pouring down
Sober surface
Can't be found
You can't drown
When nothings final
So turn
around
How do you know just who your
friends are?
How do you know when you've gone too far
To get
high again?
"Is something bothering Kitty?" Storm asked.
"I don't think so...Why?" Jean wondered.
"I don't know. Kitty's the party girl, but I never expected this to happen..."
You
always feel so alone (I want
this, do I want this) I want this (I want this)
The real you is never shown
Whose
influence?, Whose influence

So much

Now
Do I want
this? (Do i want this?)
I want this (I want this)
Do I want
this?!
"Is this rock and roll? I can not stand rock and roll!" Beast blocked his ears.
"I can't stand to watch or listen to the Professor singing rock and roll." Scott stared at the Professor horrified.

"That's the end of the song." Lance smiled.
"Why'd you pick that song for Professor X?" Kitty went up to Lance.
"Sorry, I'll pick a better song for him when he sings again."
"Okay--When he sings again?"
"Yeah. Didn't we agree to sing duets, too?" Lance asked.
"Yes. But why does the Professor get to sing two solos and a duet?" Kitty replied.
"He's just singing two solos. He's an extra person. Everyone will have a partner for the duets except him."
"So you mean that I didn't have to bug Rogue and that I made a mistake and she didn't have to do this?"
"Yeah." Lance nodded.
"Well, what she doesn't know can't hurt her." Kitty assured herself.
"Right," Lance turned to Professor X. "Okay, X, sorry, Professor X, who do you want to sing next?"
"I guess Kitty since she's already up there." Professor X responded.
Kitty backed at the Professor. "What?"
"Your going next. Hurry up." Rogue wanted to get out of here.
"Oh," Kitty smiled. "Great!"
"Are you ready?" Lance asked.
"Why do you always ask people why their ready? Just go!" Bobby argued.
Lance shook his head.
What's the time?
Well it's gotta be close to midnight
My body's talking to me
It says, "Time for danger"
It says "I wanna commit a crime"
Wanna be the cause of a fight
I wanna put on a tight skirt and flirt
With a stranger"
I've had a knack from way back
At breaking the rules once I learn the games
Get up - life's too quick
I know someplace sick
Where this chick'll dance in the flames
We don't need any money
I always get in for free
You can get in too
If you get in with me
"Kitty's the party girl...This is her alright." Jean stated.
"Who sings this? Is that the stripper person?" Spyke asked.
"You mean the girl with the really hot body in RENT?" Bobby replied.
"Yeah, and she's wiping other girls--"
"Evan!" Storm pushed him against the back of his seat.
Let's go out tonight
I have to go out tonight
You wanna play?
Let's run away
We won't be back before it's New Years' Day
Take me out tonight
Meow- HA!
When I get a wink from the doorman
Do you know how lucky you'll be?
That you're on line with the feline of
Avenue B
"I'm serious." Spyke defended himself.
"Don't talk about that." Storm scolded.
"Ha, ha, you got in trouble..." Bobby laughed.
"I hope your listening, Bobby, because I'm talking to you too." Storm glared at him.
"Oh, she just owned you!" Spyke started laughing at Bobby.
"I just owned Bobby...What?" Storm became confused.
Let's go out tonight
I have to go out tonight
You wanna prowl?
Be my night owl
Well take my hand we're gonna howl
Out tonight
In the evening I've got to roam
Can't sleep in the city of neon and chrome
Feels too damn much like home
When the Spanish babies cry
So let's find a bar
So dark we forget who we are
And all the scars of the
Nevers and maybes die!
Logan stood up and started leaving.
"Where are you going?" Scott asked.
"I have to take a piss." Logan stated and left.
Let's go out tonight
I Have to go out tonight
You're sweet
Wanna hit the street?
Wanna wail at the moon like a cat in heat?
Just take me out tonight
Please take me out tonight
Don't forsake me - out tonight
I'll let you make me - out tonight
Tonight - tonight - tonight!
"Kitty, your done," Lance turned to everyone else. "Please don't get up while people are singing."
Kitty gave Lance a weird look because she didn't know that Logan left.
"Kitty, who's nex?" Lance asked.
Kitty looked around the room. "Kurt."
