The sets of studios five and six had been empty for some time. So it was no surprise to anyone that as the large slidding door was pushed away and sunlight streamed through the opening that the sight met to the mutants using it was one of dusty tables, lights, equipment, costume racks, and even some make up stands. There was a smell of moth balls and well...dust that filled the air and the lungs of the on lookers. It was large enough that's for sure, especially with the second studio stage set right next door to this one, most likely no cleaner or nicer then this one either. For the most part everyone was quiet with the blankest expressions imaginable written across their faces. Once or twice someone blinked, they had to have or else their eyeballs would have dried out, but for the most part that was the extent of their movement. After a minute or two someone finally broke the silence.
"This is it?" Pietro asked turning his head to their director as if this was some sort of practical joke being played on them.
"Shut up." Tabitha ordered not even bothering to look his way. "You agreed to this so stop your complaining." She said as a final note.
"Hey ve agreed because you said vhere'd be food! And I don't see any." Kurt pouted looking around him as if someone was holding out on them with the secret stash of pastries and strudel.
"You'll get food. Okay?" Tabitha said in a less harsh tone then she had with Pietro.
"Hey! How come he gets food?" This earned Lance a stomp on the foot from Kitty. "Gosh doesn't Mystique feed you?" She asked her pony tail swishing past the back of her neck when she turned her head towards him.
"Petite, take i' f'om Gambit. De blue lady nor de Magneto feed any o' us." Gambit said trying to pull off a puppy dog face of sadness in order to obtain some sympathy from Rogue. Didn't work.
"I do to feed you." Magneto said crossing his arms over his chest from his position in the back of the group. Surprising because you'd think he'd want to be up and front.
"I don't." Mystique said shrugging and not able to care less.
"But still, how come -he- gets special treatment? I want food." Jamie whined still focused on what he saw as unfair treatment.
"You all are acting very immature at this moment. Now you will all get food but not at this particular moment. For now let's go inside and set up. Remember Disney is paying us a lot of money to do this using real people and real effects." Jean told them trying too hard to act like a grown up instead of the senior she was.
"Yeah what she said." Scott said nodding his head.
Logan looked down at Scott for a moment before smirking and helped Storm get everyone inside. It wasn't much surprise Magneto and Mystique weren't helping they were there just because they were supposed to be in the movie.
"Ya know, if Disne'h is supposed ta be fundin' this then how come it's dis low budget?" Rogue asked skeptically as she got to work helping set up some of the lights. Of course she didn't have to do much because as soon as Remy saw her starting to set up he stepped in and started doing all her work for her.
"Okay people listen up!" Tabitha said standing on top of one of the long rectangular tables with a bull horn in hand. "We got a lot of work to do so I want you all to come over here and check out these lists I made. The one on the right is the casting sheet and the one on the left is crew jobs. Hop to it we don't got a lot of time!" She yelled her voice being amplified about three times as loud as it normally would be.
"Okay who appointed Boom Boom to be the director anyways?" Lance complained as the large group headed towards the table to see what they would be doing during this production.
"I was put in charge because of my take-charge, go-getter attitude!" Tabitha exclaimed kneeling down to put the bull horn directly beside his ear which caused him to start whining and slightly whimper from the sudden headache he was enduring.
"I heard it was because the guy couldn't get her to shut up unless he made her director." Toad mumbled under his breath. He stopped in front of the table and saw a pair of shoes in front of him looking up he was met with the sight of Tabitha hunched down and over, strands of hair falling in front of her face making her glare look deadly. "You hear too much." She whispered before jumping up suddenly back in her perky state.
"Okay everyone read over either your role in the movie or behind the scenes and get to work!" Ms. Smith directed pulling out a director's chair for her and a little black hat. A smirk found its way to her lips upon hearing the countless groans from her victims.
"Tabitha please there has to be some mistake. I have reviewed this script and I beg of you to reconsider my role." Hank pleaded coming over to her with a look of desperation written across his face.
Tabitha was only able to shrug. "Sorry Beast but you fit the role best. You'll just have to act differently then you normally do." She said and he walked away sadly only to be replaced by Magneto storming over to her.
"Tabitha! I have never been so insulted in my whole life!" His thundered eyes flashing angrily.
"I put you in the movie didn't it?" She asked not even bother to look at him as she continued doing little odd jobs around the area she was in.
"Yes but you see I should be the one on top. I will not settle for acting as a lackey for someone in this room." He stated trying to keep his temper under control.
"Tough luck you already are and will in this movie also." She said. Magneto was too steamed off to even think up a good come back so he just stomped off to "his trailer", which was really only a supply closet that had been empty for some time now.
"Now does anyone else have a complaint or can we get on with this movie?" She asked turning around to face her cast and crew. "By the way, I know some of you who are in the movie have stage jobs too, deal with it." Tabitha added.
"Tabitha, I believe you made a mistake with my part." Jean said trying to sound mature and sophisticated.
"And that would be?" Boom Boom asked raising an eyebrow and crossing her arms over her chest.
"Well just look at it. Surely this isn't the part you intended on giving me. I mean this must be a mistake. I won't have one line in the entire movie and you won't be able to see my face." She complained firmly convinced that Tabitha had given her the wrong role. After all how could anyone not give her a major role?
"Grey, the part I gave you is as real as your die job." Tabitha said sarcastically.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Jean asked accusingly.
"It means, show me that's your real hair color and I'll tell you the role I gave you was a real mistake. Meaning not gonna happen. Next?" She stated. Naturally another red head had to fallow, terrific.
"How could you have assigned this role to me? This is an outrage!" Mystique shouted her eyes ablaze.
"What role? You're the Cave of Wonders. You have only five lines at the most!" Tabitha shot back.
"Exactly! I'm forced to come down here and mingle with all of you and I have this small of a role!" She thundered.
"Keep it up and I'll have Rogue black you out and fill in for you." Tabitha threatened.
"You can't silence me! You live under my roof and need to go by my rules. And the new rule is no one gives me a small role. Understand!" Mystique demanded becoming more and more worked up by the second. At one point she was positively seething with rage.
"That's it I'm getting a headache." Tabitha said massaging her temples with her index and middle fingers. "Rogue shut her up please!" She called out not able to see where the goth was. And like that Mystique hit the ground knocked out.
"Thank you, use her power to get into character. Everyone else, let's get this production started! Let's get the sets set up and everyone in costume!" She said once again speaking into her bull horn so everyone could hear her. "Lights Camera Action!" The blonde exclaimed getting a little too into the excitement and moment of everything.
