Reclined back in a battered couch, he continued to flip through the channels. Looking for nothing in particular, he stopped on a news section, to hear about a new group of "super heroes". As the reporter continued to talk about these "Fantastic Four" he made a comment out loud to no one, he snorted, "Will you take a look at that? Accidentally given mutant powers, your a super hero, born with it, your on the black list of every spot."\par \tab\par He continued to stare at the screen, as someone dubbed the "Human Torch" turned into flames and flew away. He glared at the screen envious. He was startled by a voice.\par \tab\par "Now Now, John. No need to get upset. Their accident may be useful to our cause." John turned to the source of the voice as Erik and Mystik walked into the room.\par \par "How so?" Mystik questioned as she plopped down on the couch next to John, causing him to shift over. Erik turns back to the tv and a grin appears on his old face. \par \par "You'll see in due time my dear. Patients."\par \par XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\par \par Else where\par \par There was a crowd of students around the TV in the Xavier Mansion. They were watching the report on these new super heroes in New York City. A few giggles from a small section of girls appeared when the "Human Torch" flashed on the screen followed by some catcalls when the "Invisible Woman" appeared. Behind the students stood another group observing the report. When a commercial finally came on, someone dared to speak.\par \par Bobby scratched his chin before commenting, "Well,... I guess this would be a start towards mutant acceptance." \par \par Next to teen was Professor Xavier who nodded, "Some people tend to accept things that happen by accident and chance over things by nature." \par \tab\par "But look at them. I complain about our outfits but they look like they are from some company promotion. Spandex. They fight in spandex. From what another report said they want to make dolls out of them." Everyone turned to the complainer. Logan made no attempted to look none guilty for being the one to complain. He spoke his mind.\par \tab\par Storm countered Logan's complaint, "You have to look at it this way. They are idolizing mutants. This is a form of acceptance. When they start to accept, it becomes easier to accept all mutants. I know the idea of a doll of a mutant seems degrading but, its a start. Its what needs to be done."\par \par "But will they accept us?" Kitty questioned. "I mean, do you really thing we could be accepted like them? I recognize the guy they call the "Human Torch". Johnny Storm is a model, this may boost his fan population some so its easy for him, whom was already famous prior to the accident. What about us who has had to hide this part of our life?"\par \tab\par Xavier examined the faces of those around him. Rogue, Evi, and Colossus had been the only ones not to say anything about this turn of events. "What do you three think of this?" \par \tab\par Rogue put some consideration into what she was going to say. "Like Storm said. Its acceptance. We have to take what we can get and only hope for the best."\par \tab\par Colossus nodded his head. He couldn't come up with anything that hadn't been pointed out so, he said the one thing that stuck out in his mind. "That Invisible Woman is hot." That caused Bobby and Logan to chuckle a bit.\par \par The report comes back and everyone turns to the screen. The supposed leader of this group was being interviewed. Evi stared at the faces of each Fantastic Four Member. She remembered meeting Reed Richards and Ben Grim a few years back. Though the meeting had been Evief, she was impressed with them. She never met Susan Storm before, however she did know Johnny. Not that he would remember her. Guys like him don\rquote t remember the girls in glasses, going out of their way not to be noticed. Plus he had been drunk when he encountered her. She ran a hand through her dark hair. Her eyes darted away from the screen, away from Johnny's grin then she gave her answer. "But won't their fame attract attention on others?" Everyone turned to her. "Magneto has been trying to find a way to convert homosapiens into mutants these past years. Surely this will attract his attention."\par \par "That is why Hank and I will being going to meet them. Hank arranged it for tomorrow." Xavier explained.\par \par "And what if Magneto shows up? He adds to his group all the time. Who knows whom he has working for him now and what they can do. Is it safe?" Evi enquired.\par \par "Which is why I will be taking Logan, Storm, Bobby, Kitty and Colossus with us. Hank said that Dr. Richards was interested in learning about the different mutants, so Hank told him that he would bring a few. I trust that you and Rogue can watch the kids tomorrow Dr.Chase?" \par \par Evi sighed and Rogue looked a bit crossed. "Now why is it that I get stuck babysitting munchkins and people who are old enough to watch themselves?"\par \par "Because we can trust you not to blow the house apart. Plus we shouldn\rquote t be gone but a few hours right?", Storm replied.\par \par "Always on babysitting duty.I have a PhD for crying out loud. I didn\rquote t go to school for this or I would have been a principle." Evi muttered. Rogue had grunted in agreement.\par \par XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\par \par \par The next day\par \tab\par The X-jet took off from the school heading towards Baxter Building. Inside was a panic and hurried Susan Storm trying to make the apartment presentable or as presentable as a apartment/ lab could get. Reed was making sure all his machines were functioning and Ben sat on the couch watching a movie. From the stairs Johnny Storm watched as his Sister and soon to be brother in law scramble around. Su standing in front of a mirror.\par \tab\par "I don't think these people are going to care how you look Su." Johnny stated from his spot on the stairs. He walked down to the bottom before sitting back down. Su glared at him through the mirror.\par \tab\par "Simply because they are coming here means nothing to you, doesn't mean the rest of us don\rquote t care.", she huffed.\par \par "Speak for your self Suzie", Ben grumbled, "Egg Head gets to experiment and we get to sit and do nothing."\par \par "Now you guys", Reed objected, "this may be of some benefit to us all. We maybe able to figure out why we were effected the way we were and at the same time figure out why we didn\rquote t become mutants naturally as well as be given guidance on our abilities. We can learn---"\par \par "And you guys making yourselves and this place decent has to do with that how? Who cares! What happened happened. It might sound great but its a bit boring if you ask me. We have powers, and I\rquote ve come to terms with them, so why not the rest of you. Anyways are there any hot chicks coming, because if that\rquote s the case, I\rquote ll be more than happy to help with examining---"\par \tab\par Su reached over smacked Johnny over the head. "Won't you grow up and be serious? They, if they are female, aren't here for your sick little pleasures."\par \par "What!? All I was saying was.."\par \par "All you were saying is that if they don\rquote t have an hour glass figure and some boobs that you don\rquote t want to be here or have anything to do with them. Your so shallow."\par \par "Hey! I'm not shallow. I show interest, it just helps if their is something nice around to help with some motivation."\par \par Su throws her hands ups with a frustrated sigh. "I give up on you!"\par \par From his place on the couch Ben pondered out to Su. "I\rquote m surprise you didn't do so sooner."\par \par "Alright Wide load stay out of this!" Johnny shouted.\par \par Ben Stood and his voice raised. "Wide load? Wide load?! This coming from the underwear model who's ego wears the wide load sign. Why i oda.."\par \par "Enough! Our guest have arrived" Reed stated loudly for the two bickering men to hear. A group entered the room. A man in a wheelchair lead them and made his way over to Reed.\par \par "How do you do?
