Kitty glanced up as Lance's jeep passed her by. She glared at Pietro who sat in the back seat with his legs up and arm around Karen. 'Grrr,' she thought. "I hate him," she spoke aloud. As the words left her mouth thunder clapped in the distance and a slight rain started to fall. She stopped and raised her hands at her sides, catching the rain in her hands. "Like this is just what I needed now," she said continuing down the block.

She passed the park and looked around as people hurried to their cars huddling under jackets, umbrellas and blankets.. All couples... All seeming to be very happy. 'Lovely,' she thought.

**CRACK!!**

Kitty whipped around as lightning struck a nearby telephone pole. The pole split taking some wires down with it. Kitty turned and began to run a few feet, then stopped and turned back around. She stopped in a puddle. As the telephone wires hit the ground, she phased. She watched as the wires passed through her feet and her lower legs. She then turned back again and spotted a small pavilion by some trees. Quickly, she rushed over to it, not becoming tangible again until she was in the cover of the pavilion.

She sighed and hoisted herself up onto a table. She pulled her knees to her chest and wrapped her arms around herself. "I'll like just sit here and wait this out. Yea, like, that's it," she said, at least she hoped.

**Meanwhile, back at the X-Mansion** ((A/N: Just to let you know, the brotherhood joined the X-Men and now they both fight Magneto and the Acolytes and Trask.. tankie tankie!))

Kurt and Evan sat in the rec. room watching a tape of the recent monster truck rally that they missed. The lights flickered on and off, then shut off. And the TV blanked out.

"What the--?" Evan asked as the lights turned back on.

"Zheesh, vow am I zupposed to know?" ((A/N: my Kurt accents really sucks)) Kurt replied.

The TV turned back on, but the tape was not playing. Kurt stared at the news anchor who was reporting a down power line by the park. A little bar with the counties on it flashed across the screen reading off the Thunderstorm Warnings and Flash Flood Warnings.

"Here we go," Evan said hitting the play button on the VRC remote control.

Nothing happened.

"Aww come on man!" he said hitting the back of it a few times. He hit the button again. And again, nothing happened.

Kurt bamfed up to the TV and hit a few buttons on the VRC. The tape popped out, but it was semi stuck. Kurt began to pull at it and it wouldn't come out because the tape part was still stuck inside. He continued pulling until the tape flew out and Kurt rolled backward into the bottom of the couch.

The tape hit the wall to the right of the door as Scott walked into the room. "Hey, you guys haven't happen to see Kitty around have you?" he asked trying to keep his cool.

Kurt and Evan looked at each other and then back to Scott. Kurt bamfed to Scott's side and started to pick up the remains of his monster truck rally and replied, "No, I haven't zeen her since school let out zis afternoon."

"Yea, me too man. Why? Is she missing or something?" Evan asked turning to sit sideways on the couch.

"Who's missin' yo?" Toad said as he hoped into the rec. room with Lance and Pietro in tail.

"Kitty," Scott replied, "you guys haven't happened to see her have you? Cause I didn't see her after school."

"Kitty?" Pietro asked with an annoyed tone, "yea I saw her after school she was walking home. And she was being extremely rude to me and my girlfriend, Krista-" Pietro kept rambling on, but everyone stopped paying attention.

"Kitty can't be missing! We have to find her!" Lance said jumping in.

"We'll fine then, we'll go looking," Scott said turning to Lance.

The two of them left the rec. room and started to head towards the garage.

Pietro turned around to finish when no one was there. "Hey, no fair! I listen to you when you're ranting and raving," he paused. "Well maybe i don't but I at least have the courtesy to act like I'm paying attention!" He sped towards the garage and caught up with the other two.

Scott hit the automatic garage door opener on his car as he and Lance began to rev up their engines.

Pietro stood there, brushes his nails off on his shirt and then got into a ready-to-run-cause-I'm-gunna-win stance and waited for the garage door to completely open.

As the door proceeded they could see that the rain had stopped slightly but it was still quite wet out. Finally the door finished and they spend out of the Mansion like bats out of hell.

Tabby couldn't help but giggle to her as she knew the guys would make this a race. Rogue rolled her eyes at her companion and walked out of the garage with a small smile on her face.
