Hey everyone, a break from the drama for some fun times at the institute. I originally wrote these in a notebook as comic strips, but I want to share.

I call it "One Week At the Institute: Mutant Antics."

………………….

(Scott walks into the kitchen, sees Kurt sitting on the floor with his tail embedded in the wall via phasing.)

Scott: How long have you been stuck here?

Kurt: A little more than three hours.

(Scott gets a sandwich from the fridge and leaves.)

Kurt: Thanks for all the help!!

…………………………..

(Kurt, Scott, Jean, Evan, and Rogue are seated at the dinner table, staring at the food, while Kitty stands over them)

Evan: Who… who COOKED this?

Kitty: I did! The Professor said in order to improve my concentration, I have to cook more often. (Leaves)

Kurt: OOOkay, I'm pretty sure this is his cover-up for forgetting to send us to survival camp this year.

Jean: Me, too.

……………………….

Scott: (Walks into office) Hey, prof.?

Professor: Yes?

Scott: Uh, my car…

Prof: Yes, we're on it.

Scott: Okay. (starts to leave)

Prof: Wait, Scott. For next time, do you want to go for a blue, or stick with the red?

………………………………….

(Kurt and Rogue in Xavier's office)

Kurt: You're getting Scott a new car?!

Rogue: That IS unfair, Professor. You don't buy US cars.

Kurt: Yeah, and how come we have to CLEAN his car?

Rogue: And what's the deal with—

Prof: You will leave and continue cleaning Scott's car.

(They leave, mind wiped. Professor Xavier winks.)

…………………………………….

(The X-Men save Kurt storm through the kitchen while a strange boy eats at the table.)

Jean: Where IS that good-for-nothing fuzzy creep?!

Kitty: I don't know, but we totally gotta find him.

Evan: Yeah, he is so going down this time. He's gunna PAY.

(When they exit the opposite door, the strange boy looks exasperated as he turns off the image inducer.)

Kurt: I thought I got rid of the mobs when I left Germany.

………………………………………

(Scott and Rogue search for Kurt in the garage.)

Rogue: Man, where IS he?

Scott: Not in here. Come on, let's go.

(They leave. Kurt's head pops up; he's in the passenger seat of Scott's car.)

Kurt: Sometimes, I really love Scott.

…………………….

(They are all still looking for Kurt.)

Professor: (telepathically) OH for God's sake, children, he's in here, hiding under my desk.

…………………………

(They get to the office door when the "Professor" walks out. Walks.)

'Prof': He went THAT way! (Points down stairs. They all run down the stairs.)

'Prof': (Turns off image inducer. It's Kurt.) Wow, I didn't think they were that stupid.

………………………

("Magneto" knocks on the front door. The door opens and the Professor looks out.)

"Mags": Cookies?

Prof: (narrowed eyes) Very funny, Kurt.

………………………….

(Kitty is walking by the front window. Kurt's face is pressed against it.)

Kitty: We're not letting you in. Oh, and the honor of making your dinner is all mine, Smarty-Pants. (leaves)

Kurt: (howling) Isn't locking me out here ENOUGH?!

………………………………

(Pietro knocks on the front door and Kurt answers it.)

Kurt: What are YOU doing here?!
Pietro: What are YOU doing here?!

Kurt: I LIVE here!

Pietro: I LIVE here!

Kurt: No you don't!

Pietro: No you don't!

Kurt: Cut it out!

Pietro: Cut it out! Hee hee hee (runs off)

Kurt: Yeesh.

…………………………..

Pietro: (runs into Magneto's office.) Guess what, father? I messed with one of the X-Men! And I got on to Institute grounds, UNDETECTED!

Mags: I have a question, oh great Pietro.

Pietro: What's that?

Mags: Would the great Pietro like his bottle warm or cold?

…………………………….

(Magneto knocks on the door. Scott opens it.)

Mags: We're, erm, short on milk. Can we borrow a glass?

Scott: Okay, where are your lackeys to ambush me once I bring the milk out?

Mags: No, really. We actually need milk.

…………………………..

Scott: (walks into kitchen) Magneto is at our front door asking to borrow a glass of milk.

Kurt: BORROW a glass of milk? What's he gonna do? Give it BACK?

Scott: You are SO missing the point here.

……………………………

Townsperson: Aaaaa, help. A monster is attacking Bayville. (Knocks on the front door) Please. Help us. Aaaaaa.

Kurt: Opens a window on the second floor and looks down at him.) Then SHOOT it already! God! You don't need OUR help! (slams the window shut)

…………………………

Townsperson: Mutants are great. Ra, ra, ra. NOW will you help the town?

Rogue: (out the same window) You're not getting ANYONE'S attention, pal.

……………………………………

Townsperson: Yipee for mutants. Hooray. Three cheers.

Kitty: (From the same window) GO AWAY!!!

…………………………….

Townsperson: The monster is still attacking Bayville.

Prof: (From the same window) Listen, the children are taking a math test. Please come back later.

Townsperson: But the monster is attacking…

Prof: I—

Kurt: (Shouting from inside) Just SHOOT it! I can't concentrate with all the explosions!

………………………………

(Students sitting at the table)

Evan: (Reading from newspaper) "Bayville destroyed. Mutants are evil monsters that won't save us."

Kurt: Well, damned if we do and damned if we don't. Jeeze.

………………………………..

Jean: Look at this. (passes Scott the newspaper)

Scott: (reading) "Garage sale next week. Mutants are evil monsters." Wow, that has nothing to do with us!

Jean: I KNOW!

………………………………………..

(Kurt running into the kitchen, eyes wide and newspaper in hand.)

Kurt: Price for burgers went up three cents!

Evan: Wow. Anything else?

Kurt: Well, yeah, later in the same article, they blame US for it. But three cents, come on!!

……………………………..

(Kitty and Lance are on the phone)

Lance: What can I do to make you go out with me? I've tried everything! Please, Kitty, tell me what you want!

Kitty: Well… I've always loved guys who could… TAP DANCE… (hangs up, turns to Kurt.) This is gunna be fun!

Kurt: Oh yeah.

……………………………

(Pietro eating a sandwich walks into the kitchen to see Lance tap dancing.)

Pietro: What… uh, what are you doing?

Lance: Winning a girl's heart. Leave me alone.

Pietro: This is why I swore off women.

………………………………

(On the phone)

Lance: Okay, I learned to tap dance. What else?

Kitty: I've always loved guys who were brave enough to do three laps in the mall… in their PAJAMAS. (Hangs up, gives Kurt a high five)

Kurt: Good one!

…………………………….

(At the mall, Tabitha, Pietro and Todd are sitting on a bench laughing and talking when Lance runs by in boxer shorts and a T-shirt.)

Pietro: Ummm…. What's he doing?

Tabitha: I don't know, but that just made my day.

Todd: What's the matter with you guys? He's obviously in love!

…………………………….

(In the phone)

Kitty: Okay, Lance, one final test. At the football game tonight, I want you to bring a microphone and shout your love for me to the whole school!

Lance: WHAT?! No way!!

Kitty: Ahem…

Lance: Grrrr… fine, but this is it, got that?

Kitty: Okey dokey! (hangs up)

Kurt: Woah. This just got serious, didn't it?

Kitty: If he loves me…

……………………………..

(At the football game)

Lance: Attention, everyone, I have an announcement. Um…

Kurt: Oh my God.

Lance: I… um…

Kitty: He's gunna do it.

Lance: I…

Kurt: That idiot's actually gunna do it.

Kitty: (hearts for eyes) He loves me! He really loves me! Professor, could you tell him he doesn't have to do it…?

Lance: I am in love with Kitty Pryde!

Prof: Whoops.

Kitty: PROFESSOR!

Prof: He was stupid enough to go along with it in the first place…

Kurt: Got that right.

……………………………

(At Lance's locker)

Kitty: Um, Lance?

Lance: WHAT?! You ruined my rep, you stomped on my pride, and you tore my manliness to shreds! WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT FROM ME?!

Kitty: Kitty: Wanna go to the movies on Saturday?

Lance. Sure.

……………………………

Kurt: I'm FAMISHED!

Kitty: Here, have a cookie.

Kurt: Thanks! (Takes a bite, pauses, and gapes as his teeth fall out.) …

Kitty: Okay, too much brown sugar. Got it.

………………………….

Kitty: (startled by Kurt) EW!

Kurt: "Ew"? That's what you say? Not "hello", or, "nice to see you"? You say "ew"?

Kitty:… EW!

…………………………..

Okay, that's all I have so far. Tell me what you think. If I get good reviews I might do a Mission X version.
