Last Time: Kurt's answer was simple and direct. He *KISSED* Kitty. Right there in front of everyone!

SUNDAY MORNING AT THE BROTHERHOOD HOUSE

Lance woke to feel Mystique snuggling up closer into his embrace. Relishing his wondrous fortune, Lance Alvers, AKA: Avalanche, luxuriated in the morning joy of a beautiful, naked woman in his arms. His lust was mostly sated from last night. #Wow! Raven sure is a wildcat in bed! I have never had SIX orgasms in one night! Why the heck didn't I try for her in the first place? Oh well. I have her now, and I am NEVER giving up this awesome and sexy woman. Especially not for some prissy little girl, who never even let me use my tongue in a kiss! This is no silly girl. This is a woman. Wow! This is MY woman! Lance, my man, you have won the love lottery!# *Grinning* to himself, Lance kept Mystique, AKA: Raven Darkholme, in his embrace.

Looking at the sleeping woman in his arms, Lance began to wonder about their relationship. #I hope that she isn't just using me for sex. I really like being nice to her. Is this what adult love is like? Is this love? Can there BE love between us, given our age difference, and the fact that she is The Boss? I certainly hope so! This is too good to give up on, SHE's too good to give up on!#

Unaware of Lance's inner dialog, Raven Darkholme began to stir. Lance looked down at his lover, and gently caressed her hair from her face. A face, that to Lance, was beautiful exactly as it was. Reacting to the very gentle re-arranging of her hair, Raven awoke in a very good mood. The sweet sensation of her hair being played with, and her face being softly stroked was blissful to the mutant woman.

Quietly whispering to his lady love, Lance welcomed Raven back to waking world with a soft *kiss* on her ear. "G'mornin', beautiful. Do you like being woken up like this, my love?" Lance held his breath. This was a deliberate test to see how she would react to being call 'my love'. #If she objects, or makes fun of it, it's gonna be over, real fast!# Raven *smiled* and answered "Yes, my handsome Avalanche! My love, could you please rub my shoulders for a bit?"

Lance was only too happy to comply with his lovers wishes! In mere minutes, Lance went from joyous, to nervous, and back to joyous. His massage certainly made Raven fall back to sleep on this lazy, rainy Sunday morning. Deciding that his breakfast could wait, Lance simply continued the massage, to include her neck, scalp, pretty face, and arms, as well as her shoulders and back. Raven was soon out like a light. Once finished, Lance simply dozed in place, holding Mystique as a good man should.

MEANWHILE, AT XAVIER'S INSTITUTE FOR THE GIFTED

Kurt woke up to a vaguely familiar feeling, a warm, and wonderful one. Opening one eye, he saw the cause of his joy. Kitty Pryde was sleeping in his arms, albeit with her nightgown on. #Still, zis is such a good feeling! I luff zis girl! Oh, Amanda vas nice, but ze problems from her parents were zo much! Zen she vould not even believe me, ven I explained about my Mutter! Oh, vell. Kitty truly iz ze right girl for ze Fuzzy Dude!# *Grinning* Kurt gently pulled the blanket over Kitty to keep her warm.

#I am zo glad zat zere iz no training for zis veek. Boy, zat Ray Crisp really did a number on ze Danger Room. He fried every single circuit! It vill take Wolverine and Beast at least anozzer four, or five days to re-wire it all.#

Looking back down at Kitty, peacefully asleep, Kurt felt a pang of love in his heart for the sweet petite mutant girl. His best friend, and his first real lover. #Mein Gott! She iz zo beautiful. Like an Engel she iz!# Kitty had no way of knowing Kurt's thoughts, but seemed to respond anyway by *snuggling* into his arms a bit deeper. #Funny, I don't remember her coming into ze room last night. She must haf snuck in ven I vas sleeping. My naughty Kitty.#

Kitty's eyes fluttered open, as she realized that she had stay in Kurt's room a lot longer than she'd intended to. "Oh my gosh. Kurt? What time is it?" Kurt gently soothed Kitty with a warm snuggle. "It iz seven twenty two, Katzchen. Ve haf until eight before ve vill be missed."

Kitty said "OK, but we should, like, get up now to totally avoid suspicion, OK?" Kurt nodded "Ja, Katzchen. Ve vill. Just let me hold you a bit more, please?" Kitty felt so good. So warm and secure in Kurt arms. #Loved. That's how I feel!# She thought to herself. After five minutes, Kitty reluctantly moaned "Kurt, we, like, really gotta get up." Kurt had been falling back asleep, until then. "Ja, Katzchen. I vill be getting up, now." When Kitty got up, she noticed Kurt's 'morning stiffness' and was entranced. "Wow, Kurt, you really are a big boy, aren't you?" Kurt *blushed* "Zat is a naughty Kitty!" Kitty laughed and teased "Does that mean that I, like, get a spanking….?" Kitty wiggled her bottom at Kurt who almost had simply grabbed her, when his door opened!

Scott was standing there about to ask, or perhaps say something. His voice died in a little *squeek* as he saw the two young teenagers in a rather compromising position. Seeing Kitty had been deliberately shaking her pretty bottom, wearing only rather small and lacy panties, (and a sheer lacy nightgown) at Kurt. Kurt was only in his undershorts with 'morning stiffness' very evident, looking like he was about to spank Kitty's bottom! Scott stared at the two lovers. The two lovers stared at Scott. Kitty *BLUSHED* big time! Kurt *Blushed* Both teens tried to get decent, by covering up any way they could. Scott was as embarrassed, as they were.

Scott found his voice, after a moment. "Um, Kurt. Kitty. I'm NOT gonna say a thing to anyone, but Logan will likely smell you on each other, unless you two shower. Seperately. Be much more careful. And Kitty? Try not to tease boys. You'll wind up a mommy before you're a High School Junior, nevermind having Graduated. Come on. Get ready. Logan wants us to be ready to go by nine o'clock, latest. He's taking us on a 'Survival Training' trip."

MEANWHILE, AT A REMOTE SPOT IN THE WOODS

A feral presence was noticed by the animals, and they all fell silent as it shadow of this beastial figure was large and shaggy. Sniffing for it's prey, it hunted tirelessly. Scanning the forest around it with hearing that no mere human could match, the figure prowled onwards…

BACK AT THE BROTHERHOOD HOUSE

Raven Darkholme awoke to the delicious smell of bacon! Opening her eyes, Mystique saw her strong, handsome, and thoughtful lover bringing in a tray of food for both of them. Sitting up, Raven covered up her nakedness with the sheets, and smiled at the much younger mutant. "Here you go, Raven. Breakfast in bed. I thought you could use a bit of pampering on a rainy, yucky day like today."

Raven was almost beyond words. #I really have gotten to Lance, haven't I?# Aloud she exclaimed "Bacon! Oh, and a ham and cheese omelette! Lance, this is my favorite breakfast! Thank you."

Lance was filled with pride and joy as his beautiful and sophisticated lover praised him and his efforts! "I, um, washed out your favorite coffee mug, and used it again. Black, two sugars." Lance indicated the Freddie Mercury Coffee Mug, that was a particular prize of Raven's.

Raven thought #Someday I'll tell him just how I got that mug, and why. Oh Freddie, Baby! You were here for too short a time. I'll silently toast to you, and always remember that morning on the Thames.#

Lance was carefully climbing back into bed with his lady-love, when there was a *knock* *knock* *knock* at the door. Lance and Raven looked at one another. Lance quietly grumbled "I told them not to bother us!" Getting up, as he still had on his shorts, Lance answered the door. "What do you want?" He angrily snapped.

Standing there, with his mouth hanging open, was Magneto, the Master of Magnetism. "My. Um…*ahem* My dear Raven. I shall await you down stairs. Try not to take too long." Magneto was *blushing* underneath his Helmet, hard enough for Mystique to see it. Lance was also in a bit of shock, as he too *blushed*. Closing the door, he turned to Raven and asked "OK. Now what?"

Raven Darkholme had only one answer "Now, my dear Avalanche, we get dressed and take our breakfast down with us." Lance nodded and the two lovers helped each other get ready in only fifteen minutes, including the quick shower.

Once downstairs, with Lance putting the breakfast tray on the table, Raven and Lance sat down. Magneto looked uncomfortable, but was not blushing any longer. Toad had a *smirk* on his face, from the show that the lovers must have put on. Wanda looked embarrassed. Blob was too busy eating to notice much of anything. Perhaps that was done on purpose. Pietro also had a nasty *smirk*, which he hid every time his Father looked in his direction.

Magneto took a moment to allow everyone there to collect themselves and opened with "Greetings, Brotherhood. I and my Acolytes are ready to deal a blow against the oppressive Human Regime with still holds this world in thrall. A world that rightfully belongs to us! I have discovered a Government Lab that is experimenting on captured mutants. We will destroy the lab, free the mutants and kill every single human there. Understood?"

Nobody was going to tell the Master of Magnetism 'No'. Instead the group got ready to go into combat. Raven and Lance finished their breakfast, with Raven politely offering coffee to Magneto. "Are you sure you don't want some, Erik? Lance has become very good at coffee…"

Magneto's appraising look said it all without words; He obviously was thinking 'What else has Avalanche 'become good' at?' Mystique had the decency to *blush* under that gaze, whereas Lance set his jaw and and looked protective of Mystique. This did not go unnoticed by the Master of Magnetism.

Magneto surprised them by *smiling* and said "I do not disapprove, Mystique. Just the opposite. I hope that you two make each other very happy. After all, I am hoping to make the Brotherhood even more like a family. If Avalanche makes as good a good Father figure for the rest, as he has shown in the past, then you, my Dear, will make a good Mother to this family."

Lance surprised everyone by taking one of Mystique's hands in his own, and declaring "Damn right she will. I will be by her side from now on! As long as she wants me, I'll follow her into Hell itself!" Magneto was only mildly surprised. Only at the declaration, not the fierceness of it. He was more than familiar with such passions.

Mystique was surprised by both the declaration and the passionate fire behind his words! "Oh, my Avalanche! You really mean it, don't you?"

His reply was a deep, passionate *KISS* that shocked everyone else there! Even Magneto was not expecting this. Lance ended the kiss gently, and asked "Does that answer your question, my Raven?"

Wanda, being more clear headed, at the moment, asked "Father? What about the X-Men?"

Magneto *grinned* and said "I have accounted for them. They are going out on a trip of some sort. From all the camping gear they are packing, it looks like one of Wolverine's 'Survival Courses'. To keep them busy, I have sent someone to keep them busy. Also I have sent a new Acolyte, to sabotage their mechanical transports. This will keep them from getting to the base in time to interfere. By the time they get there, we, and our new recruits will be long gone! This time I have planned for everything. I even have a lovely method of keeping dear Charles from bothering us."
