Author's Note: This is a story I wrote after I discovered Fan-fiction. This happens about five years after Accession. Rogue can use a selected few of the others powers. (Kurt's, Jean's, Kitty's, Carol's, and Logan's healing factor.)

*Saturday, April 1*

It was another morning at the Xavier Institute. Though Rogue knew better, she had been at the mansion for over five years. The mansion was never quite, not even at night. /At least Logan didn't schedule a DR session. / Rogue thought getting up. She glanced at her schedule book on the desk. Today was April 1st, meaning April Fool's Day. She knew she'd have to be careful. Members would be on teams trying to get the others to submit. Last year had been horrible because of the New Recruits vs. X-Men. Between Bobby and Tabitha the Recruits won easily. It began as soon as the clocks struck twelve.

Rogue was thankful for her own room and bathroom. She took a quick shower and changed. By then it was 7:30. She opened the door to her room and water began raining down. Years of training with Logan however had sharpened her reflexes, so she easily stopped it with Jean's powers. The water was held in a small bubble and when she looked up she saw a Joker card in it and instantly knew who did this. And we all know this meant war.

Rogue thought for a moment and called up Kurt's psyche, and teleported to the boys' wing. She stood outside the door then carefully peeked in. There wrapped in red covers was a sleeping Remy Lebeau. He was on his back so that made her job easier. She silently let the bubble float over his head and let it drop. The water hit him and he awoke with a start."That's what yah get wit thah Rogue, Swamp Rat!" yelled Rogue before she 'ported out laughing. / Dat's Cherie likes t' play. Today gonna fun/ thought Remy getting up to clean the mess and get ready.

*Xavier Institute Dining Room, 7:30 am.*

By the time Remy got to breakfast he was the last one there. Logan was sitting by the window with his usual coffee and paper, while Jubilee, Rhane, and Amara were giggling over something. Bobby, and Tabitha were whispering together as Ray, Sam, and Roberto eyed the carefully. Kurt was eating like no tomorrow. Jamie was sitting next to Ororo as she helped him with a project that was due on Monday. Lorna and Peter were sitting with Betsy and Warren at one end of the table. Scott and Jean were at the other.

Then Remy finally found her. Rogue was sitting between Lexa and Kitty with a cup of coffee in her hands. He sat down in the empty seat across from the three. Kitty started giggling and spoke," Rogue, like told me what happened earlier". Kurt turned around "Vat happened earlier?" he asked." Nothin'" Remy replied a little too quickly. Lexa coughed but it sounded a lot like "liar".

Logan heard it still and looked up."What happened, Gumbo?" he said in a low voice. Remy knew better than to argue with that tone. "Fine if y' must know Remy gotta rude awakenin' dis monin'. Mon Cherie dumped water all over Remy." he said whining like a child. All heads turned to Rogue for confirmation. "Ah did it only because he tried to dump me first." said Rogue then she turned to face Remy."Don't yah dare turn this on meh, Cajun! Ah only saw fit to return it to sender, not ta mention it helped yah look like the Swamp Rat yah are."

The professor rolled in after sensing distress from Jean. He caught the tail end of the conversation."Remy, what you did was extremely childish and uncalled for, and the same goes for you Rogue. Though seeing as how it is April Fool's Day I will let you both of." he said before rolling away to stay out of the line of fire. He knew today was going to be a long one.

The entire seen had given both Bobby and Tabby ideas. They waited until the adults left before announcing. When Logan and Ororo had finally left the two stood up and called for attention. All the young mutants looked knowing something bad would likely happen if the didn't." As you all know today is April Fools Day. That means we will be picking teams."said Bobby. "We have decided for this year to be an old favorite. Boys vs. Girls! Good luck and may the best ones win." said Tabitha with a grin.

Rogue contacted Jean through telepathy.

/Jean?/
/Yes Rogue?/
/Yah heard wat Bobby and Tabby said?/
/Yes. Do you have a plan?/
/Yeah. Round up all the gals and tell them ta meet in mah room./
/Sure./

With her army complete Rogue waited for breakfast to finish. She finished her coffee and placed the mug in the sink. As she climbed the stairs to her room Rogue only thought one thing. /Those boys won't no whah hit 'em./.
