*gasp* A non-LotR story? Amazing! Ah well…I'll try not to have the Ring magically fall into the story *somehow*…
P.S. This is not Evolution!! Nightcrawler in X-Men: Evolution is a LOT different than comic Kurt! *ahem* Onto the story…
"Kurt…" Wolverine said, strolling down the street, "I was wondering if your image inducer runs out of batteries ever…"
"Why?" The fuzzy blue demon like mutant asked, curiously.
"'cause a moment ago you looked like Errol Flynn, and now you look like…Kurt Wagner…" Wolverine said, nonchalantly.
"Mein gott!!" Kurt screaming, jumping three feet into the air, and of course, people started staring. "What do I do? It's too far to 'port back to the mansion!" he said, as people began to stare at him, wide-eyed.
Wolverine shrugged. "Pretend it's a costume?" he suggested, taking out a cigar.
"Ach…thanks for the help…" Kurt muttered, looking very uncomfortable. "Maybe I could just walk into a store and ask for batteries…." But he was interrupted at that moment by a little boy, who walked up to Kurt, and tapped him.
"That's a funny costume you have there, mister." He said, smiling. "It's neat. Where did you buy it."
Logan chuckled, as Kurt searched for an answer. "Do you like it? I'm just testing it out for Halloween." He added loudly, so all the people staring at him heard. Good, he thought, they just think I'm wearing a costume…I hope.
"Hold on, Wolvie, I'll be right—" Kurt stopped midsentence. "Uh oh…do you have any money?"
Logan shook his head.
"Ho no…how far away are we from the mansion?"
"Twenty miles, I'd say…"
"And when is Scott coming back with the car?"
"In another hour…"
"Oi vey…" he said, even though Kurt isn't the type of person who generally says "oi vey". People were beginning to stare. Fine, Kurt thought, let them…and take advantage of it…he wanted to do something fun anyhow.
Kurt began to grin evilly, and strutted down the street, yelling like a demon, while Logan followed behind, crouched over laughing.
People began to laugh too. Finally, a little girl approached Nightcrawler.
"You're a moo-tant, aren't you?" she asked, innocently.
Kurt looked surprised.
"Yes…" he said hesitantly.
"I thought so," she said, hugging him. "I want to be a moo-tant too! I want to have pretty fur like your, 'cept purple!" she said, running off, leaving Kurt with a smile on his face. Then not everybody hated mutants after all…that was nice…
Fin.
