Sequel to Snow Day

Preface

In the Two days following the prank war, the house had not settled down as calmly as the adults would have hoped. The repairmen had arrived as soon as the driveway was cleared, and reconstruction was underway. The children however were all on edge. Jean, Rogue,Kitty, Kurt, Wanda, John,Remy, and Piotr were still angry. Bobby, Amara, Tabitha, Jubilee, Ricardo, Sam, and Ray were on edge. Rhane and Jamie were terrified.

Rogue and Wanda were frequently seen together plotting loudly their revenge on Scott for the diary theft. Kitty joined them on several occasions on principle. Bobby,John, and Remy were supportive of the girls feeling that the prank had gone too far . The others were trying to stay out of their way.

Scott had retrieved the chainsaw after everyone had gone to bed that night, and it was now under his bed with in easy reach. He was never far from the tool, much to the dismay of his fellow students, and as yet unnoticed by his teachers. How they managed to miss the power tool when all of the students were well aware of it was a mystery to them all.

The younger children were still frightened and refused to come into the TV room, Dining-room, or Game room if an adult wasn't present. Because they were refusing to enter the common rooms it was quiet downstairs, which is what alerted Logan and Victor.

This was alarming enough, however, when word got back to Logan that Jamie and Rhane refused to enter the kitchen unless there was a crowd, he knew they had a problem.

Jamie practically lived in the kitchen. He was in the middle of a power growth spurt and as such he was never far from food. Since the eating had only started a week ago Logan knew that it couldn't be over yet, but the boy wasn't raiding the kitchen.

Logan immediately decided it was time to take it up with Charles, and went straight to Charles' office. Erik and Victor were already there, having arrived after Victor had discovered the same as Logan about the children moments before Logan.

While they sat in the office trying to think of a way to calm the children's fears, as well as figure out why they were still so upset, Ororo came in. After listening for a few moments she informed them that the reason why the children were so afraid was that Scott had taken to keeping the chainsaw near him at all times.

Logan protested this, reminding everyone that the chainsaw had been safely locked away, but then noticed that it was indeed true when Scott happily walked past the window with the object in question cradled over his shoulder.

As if further confirmation was needed, they children sitting outside all moved away from Scott as he approached, looking very frightened. They all watched as the children skirted Scott while he made his way around the garden. It was hard to say from here if he was unaware of the others' reaction or if he was aware and enjoying the torment of his friends.

After Scott had finally disappeared around the side of the house and out of sight, Charles and Erik quickly agreed that Remy needed to be sent away for a few days to help Scott recover from his breakdown.

This was cemented when they watched as Remy casually walked across the lawn shuffling his cards as Scott came sprinting after him. Scott was nearly on him when he turned the chainsaw back on. Remy then took off in a run with Scott chasing after, not remembering that at the moment the saw was plugged in. He had placed it to charge just before he had finally spotted Remy and had forgotten the cord until it became taunt, suddenly pulling the chainsaw from is arms.

Scott was yanked off his feet by the momentum, and as he landed with the chainsaw far out of reach, Remy returned to check on him. Before he could say more than a word or two though, Scott once again attacked him while screaming loud enough to be heard in the office "You broke Jean Jr!"

Logan shook his head and went outside quickly to break things up, while Wanda and Rogue spotted Scott and jumped on top of him (and Remy) .

Logan returned to the office as the construction supervisor arrived with the invoice. Charles thanked the man before looking at the bill. Upon seeing the rather large amount he nearly fell out of his chair.

Erik seeing Charles' reaction snatched up the invoice as well, before fainting. Worried about an adverse reaction, Ororo gently took the paper from Erik's lifeless hand to read it and quote the number out loud.

In light of the repair bills that had followed the incident, Charles and Erik decided it would be best to give the boys a break from each other. Ororo had been quick to point out that taking one of them from the house would show favoritism in the eyes of the other students, so Logan made a quick list of students that were either involved or would want revenge to be drug along.

This is how Rogue,Kitty,Wanda, Bobby,John as well as Remy found themselves half asleep in the back of the van with Logan and Victor in the front. They were on their way to a cabin owned by Charles in upstate New York, that he had admittedly not been to in a number of years.
