Completely depressed by his inability to get more than two or three lyrics out, Pietro went back to the Brotherhood house to watch some TV. He sped into the living room, screamed girlishly at the sight that was Toad and Kitty canoodling on the couch and ran back towards the Institute. What the rest of his family and friends were up to was bad, but some sights were just too much.

As he approached the mansion, he noticed Rogue wandering up to the gates. He stopped running and strolled nonchalantly towards her. "Hi Rogue!"

"Uh…hi Pietro." Rogue looked around shiftily. "Well, gotta go!"

"Wait!" Pietro didn't see anyone around to interrupt him. "I've got something to say – uh, sing to you!"

"Can it wait…?"

Pietro: I walked along the avenue

I never thought I'd meet a girl like you

Meet a girl like you…

"Actually…"

Pietro: With auburn hair and tawny eyes…

"I don't think my hair's…"

Pietro: The kind of eyes that hypnotize me through

Hypnotize me through

And I ran

I ran so far away

I just ran

I ran all night and day…

"You do that anyway."

Pietro: I couldn't get away

Reached out a hand to touch your face…

"No don't! I need to tell you…"

Pietro: You're slowly disappearing from my view

Disappearing from my view…

"Look Pietro," said Rogue nervously. "There's something you should know…"

Pietro: Reached out a hand to try again

I'm floating in a beam of light with you

A beam of light with you…

"I have to tell you something! Will you stop singing at me!"

Pietro: And I ran

I ran so far away

I just ran

I ran all night and day

I couldn't get away…

"WILL YOU STOP SINGING AND LISTEN TO ME!"

"Uh…sorry?" Pietro looked hurt. "It's just, I've been trying to tell you about how I feel all day…"

"For Gods sake, you pathetic fool! I'm not Rogue!"

Rogue began to change, growing taller, her skin turning blue…

"GAAAAAAH! MYSTIQUE!"

"Obviously. I just disguised myself as Rogue to find out why every mutant in town's started singing at the slightest provocation! I must say I'm surprised at you little crush. What would your father say?"

"Not much at the moment, he's got a mouth full of werewolf!"

Pietro took advantage of Mystiques confusion to flee into the Institute, cursing his luck. He managed to sing a love song to the Goth of his dreams and it wasn't even her!

Deciding that she couldn't possibly be known as the singing terrorist – it gave her away too easily for one thing – Mystique followed Pietro into the mansion.

Song is 'I Ran' by A Flock of Seagulls
