So far I've made about thirteen stories and I still haven't finished a single one. My first couple are just plain awful, so don't read them or they'll make your eyes bleed (except for the Tangled one). Anyway, I decided that it'd be much easier to commit to a series of one-shots than an actual storyline.
Enjoy!
"Does anyone know where all of my movies went?" Kitty asked as she searched under the dining room table for the said objects.
"Why would anyone want to take your chick flicks?" Rogue snickered.
"All of them are totally not chick flicks! I also have some family movies too, you know."
Rogue rolled her eyes. "Wow, seems like you've made a break through!"
"There's no need to be sarcastic!" Kitty snapped. "I just want to know if you've seen them recently!"
"No, I haven't!" Rogue snapped back as she left the dining room.
Kitty sighed. "I guess I'll have to skip out on movie night on the only free night I have this week."
Bobby, who had been strolling by, saw Kitty sighing and looking depressed so he decided to see what was wrong. "What's wrong, Kitty?" he asked.
"Somebody took all my movies!" Kitty complained. "And don't ask if I lost them, because I didn't! I like, totally remember putting them in my closet shelf after the last time I watched them!"
"Who would steal a bunch of chick flicks?" Bobby asked.
Kitty glared ferociously. "They are so not chick flicks!"
"Whatever you say," Booby held up his hands in mock-defense. "Ooh, maybe Jean took them!"
"Jean is out somewhere with Scott."
"Then maybe Amara took them."
"She's at a party," Kitty informed Bobby.
"And she didn't invite me to go with her?" Bobby looked surprised. "So that's where everyone is!"
And with that, Bobby left to go find said party.
Kitty groaned. "Now how am I going to find my movies?" She whined to herself.
Kitty moped around in her room as she painted her fingernails the color of M&M's and listened to pop music like any self-respecting teenage girl does when she has nothing better to do.
She sang along with the song that was on at the moment as loud as she could. Nobody was home so she didn't have to worry about anyone hearing her atrocious singing.
"And we, are never, ever, ever, getting back together! Oh, wee, are never, ever, ever, getting back together! You're friends talk to my friends talk to your friends talk to me! Yeah, weee, are never, ever, ever… getting back togeeettheeerrr." Kitty sang at the top of her lungs as she danced and painted her nails at the same time (multitasking was one of her hidden mutant talents).
All of a sudden, Kitty heard the professor say (er, think) to her through his telepathy, "Kitty, would you quiet down! Ororo, Logan, Hank and I are trying to watch a movie!"
Kitty thought back to him, "Like, sorry Professor. I didn't know I was being that loud."
He didn't reply, which made Kitty wonder what he could be watching that was so interesting. It wasn't often that all the adults shared an interest in movies.
Hank preferred educational films or sci-fi movies. Logan liked action movies and sometimes watched the news, but he preferred reading the newspaper like some old grandpa. Ororo would sometimes watch family movies and the occasional chick flick, but she mostly stuck to watching the news, as did Xavier. Not to mention that the adults didn't usually waste their precious time watching useless TV when they could be spending the last couple decades making the world a better place for mutants, or some crud like that.
"You know what'd really be funny? If they were watching a chick flick." Kitty said to herself. She giggled at the thought of manly Wolverine crying over a romance movie.
Kitty phased through her bedroom door, only to bump into Rogue, who was carrying a camera.
"What are you doing with that camera, Rogue?" Kitty inquired.
"Follow me, and you'll see." Rogue said as she smiled evilly.
Kitty was now more curious than ever. "Like, what is it?"
Rogue shushed Kitty. "C'mere."
Rogue went onto her knees and starting crawling towards the living room with the camera in her mouth. Kitty shrugged and did the same. She was surprised when she heard the Professor's voice say, "Why is she going with that boy when she obviously loves the other one?"
Hank replied, "I really want her to end up with the second guy. He's nicer and treats her better. The first guy she met and instantly 'fell in love'. I think that was just lust. She really loves this guy."
"How could you say that?" Kitty heard a whack as Ororo smacked Hank with a pillow. "A woman will never forget her true love."
Kitty was surprised. She never thought the adults would waste their time analyzing a 'chick flick', but nothing would prepare her for what happened next.
As the first boy jumped in front of the girl to save her from a bullet, Hank guffawed. "Nobody can outrun a bullet."
"Quicksilver could," Xavier argued.
"Well, he's not included. I meant regular people." Hank explained.
"We are regular people." Xavier quarreled.
"I mean people who aren't mutants!" Hank said exasperatedly.
Ororo hit them with more pillows. "Shut up! He's dying!"
Kitty's jaw dropped to the ground when Logan stood up, clutching a pillow. "NO! Don't die! You have so much to live for!" He screamed as tears strolled down his eyes.
Kitty heard soft snickering beside her and saw Rogue videotaping the whole thing. "I didn't even know Mr. Logan had tear ducts," Kitty whispered to her friend.
Rogue just laughed. "Why do you think I don't go out to parties?"
Kitty laughed back, then turned back to Logan.
As the first boy died after making a boring, cliché speech about how much he loved her, Logan lost it. "NO! Why'd they kill him off for?! They can't just do that? She didn't even love the second guy! Now she's doomed to live with him forever!"
Professor sighed. "He's lost it again, Ororo." He snapped his fingers. "Hank, you know what to do."
Hank nodded as he smirked. This was payback for the time Logan had drank all of the coffee. "For Narnia!" He cried as he tackled the screaming Logan and pricked his skin with what he called, 'Super-Duper-Uper-Deduper- Strong-Tranquilzer Formula.'
Logan immediately fell unconscious and Hank unceremoniously threw him over his shoulder and left the room.
By now Kitty and Rogue were rolling on the floor laughing their eyes out. Unfortunately, this also meant that the Professor and Storm heard them.
"What are you doing here, Kitty?" Ororo asked.
"I could ask you the same, Rogue." Professor said, frowning. This was supposed to be the adults' alone time, not girls-spying time.
"I, um, lost my camera." Rogue said quickly. She then pretended to be amazed at the camera in her hand. "And I found it! Thanks, Professor!"
Rogue immediately ran out of the living room to escape the awkward moment, leaving Kitty all alone with two pissed off adults.
Professor and Storm stared at Kitty, who stared back. They all stared at each other for at least ten minutes.
Kitty laughed sheepishly and rubbed her neck awkwardly as she said, "So, I take it you liked the movie?"
Did anyone catch my mistake? Here's a hint: It happened whenever Bobby was around. Anyone who catches my mistake gets to make a choice for another awkward moment.
