Disclaimer- I don't own the X-Men, Marvel does. I only own August.
Response to reviews-
Dark Jaded Rose- Glad you liked the Rahne/Warlock fluff. There's more fluff to come soon!
Quote of the day- 'Twinkle-twinkle little elf, screwing with Mary is bad for your health!'
Xavier's school for higher learning-
August is presently showering in preparation for her date with Kurt. She scrubs herself with cinnamon scented soap and washes the lather off under the spray. After she has finished, she turns off the shower and steps out of the cubicle. Still with soap in her eyes, she feels about for a towel.
'Here you go.' A woman's voice says, handing her a towel'
'Thanks.' Augusts says, not realising that someone is in the bathroom with her. She begins to dry herself off. Then she realises that someone is in there with her!
'Get out Mother!' She hisses at Selene, Black Queen of the Hellfire Club. 'You're not welcome here!'
Selene shakes her head and tuts.
'There's no need for that kind of behaviour Augusta.' Selene says. 'I just wanted to pop by and say hello.'
'Of course you did.' August says sarcastically. 'Just like when you came and said hello when I was having a pee! And when I was eating a sandwich! And when I was shopping! I'm not going to tell you again so, tell me what you want or get out!'
'I want you to join me!' Selene says.
August snorts in derision. 'What? Join the Hellfire Club? And become one of your demonic lackeys? Like Blackheart and the rest of those losers? I don't think so!'
'Pity!' Selene sighs. 'Come the day, you would have ruled at my side.'
Selene's gaze suddenly turns ominous.
'You will ruin the day that you ever disobeyed Selene, immortal Black Queen of the Hellfire Club!'
And with that, Selene disappears. August just throws her towel in the corner and goes to get dressed.
Outside Xavier's: Later-
The fuzzy blue teleporter known as Kurt Wagner is waiting nervously in the car. He has his image-inducer switched on. Presently it is projecting an image of a handsome man dressed in a red turtleneck sweater and black pants. He checks his hair in the rear view mirror nervously, the fifth time in as many minutes. He turns as he hears August step out the door. She looks resplendent in leather pants and black shirt, tied around her chest as a makeshift bra.
'You're looking fine tonight Kurt!' She smiles, kissing him on the cheek.
Kurt gets up and lets her in.
'You don't look so bad yourself Fraulein!' he answers, looking her up and down. 'Not bad at all!'
'You don't think it's a little much do you?' August asks. 'Y'know, slutty?'
Kurt pats August on the shoulder comfortably.
'Of course not!' he says. 'Nothing on you makes you look like a slut!'
August smiles at the compliment.
'Right answer Fuzzy!' where are we going anyway?'
'They're showing 'Pirates of the Caribbean again.' Kurt answers. 'I thought we could go and see that!'
'Ooh!' August coos. 'Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom! I can't wait!'
'And then I thought we could go for dinner.'
'It sounds lovely Kurt!' August smiles again. 'I'm sure it's going to be a wonderful night!'
*That's what you think! * A voice says in her head.
August looks into the rear-view mirror and her eyes open wide at the image in the mirror. Selene is sitting behind her. August looks behind her, nothing! She then looks back at the rear-view mirror, Selene's gone!
'Is anything the matter?' Kurt asks.
'Oh sorry Kurt.' August answers him. 'I'm fine.'
Kurt just shrugs as he starts up the car and drives down the driveway.
Later Still-
Kurt and August are now sitting in the movie theatre, watching 'Pirates of the Caribbean.' Kurt has his arm around August's shoulders and August has her head laid on Kurt's shoulder. The movie has just reached the part when the army of undead pirates are walking under the sea.
'Kurt?' August asks. 'Are those zombie pirates supposed to walk out of the screen like that?'
'I don't think this is 3-D.' Kurt answers. He looks behind him and sees that the other moviegoers have noticed this and are starting to flee. Kurt and August look back to the movie screen as the zombie pirates walk out of the screen and approach them.
'Looks like our dates over.' Augusts sighs.
'And dinner's out of the question!' August also sighs.
Suddenly, the zombie pirates stop. There is a burst of flame and Selene appears.
'Mother!' August gasps.
Kurt turns to August and stares at her.
'Did you say Mother?' He asks.
'Now's not the time, Kurt.' August tells him.
Selene steps towards them.
'I'm giving you one last chance to join me Augusta.' She says. 'Or I will set my little undead pirate pets onto you!'
'I would never join you!' August spits.
'Very well!' Selene sighs. She then claps her hands and the zombie pirates rush towards them. Selene takes a seat, picks up a discarded bag of popcorn, sits back and enjoys the show.
'I always did enjoy a good pirate film!' She quips.
No sooner has the first pirate reached him then Kurt BAMFs behind him, snatches his sword away and cuts off it's head. He then swings the sword backwards, cutting an approaching pirate in half.
August, meanwhile is alternating blasting the pirates with fireballs and tearing them to pieces with her bare hands!
It is a short, but brutal battle and a bloody and bruised Kurt and August stand victorious.
Selene throws down her popcorn in fury.
'Very well!' She hisses. 'It seems that I'll have to resort to my old tricks!'
She then motions with her hands, chanting something in Latin.
Outside-
BLAMMO!
Passers-by are knocked of their feet as the movie theatre erupts in a ball of flame.
