Who Sleeps At A Sleepover Anyway?
"That was close!" Jamie gasped for breath as he and Hank made it into Hank's bedroom. "Is it me or for some reason those girls seem madder than they were before?"
"Definitely not you," Hank sighed as he put down his stolen supplies. "Thank goodness they were out most of the day so we could eat and relax a little. Now all we have to do is wait for the Professor to return. He and Wolverine just called my cell phone and I explained the situation. Hopefully this mess will be resolved and we can get on with our lives."
"And if they can't calm the girls down?" Jamie asked.
"Then the girls will kill them and we will get on with our lives in Canada," Hank said. "I've already got the spare image inducers and the fake IDs. We will become scientific researchers and take advantage of Canada's wonderful health care plan."
"I like my new name," Jamie smiled. "Jay Rathston. 'J Rath' to my friends! Surfer dude from California."
"And I shall be Henry Hamilton the Fifth in a long line of academic Hamiltons from Boston, Massachusetts," Hank said.
"At least we got snacks while we're waiting," Jamie said. "What's that?"
"Some kind of protein shake I suppose," Hank held up a gray shake. "I found it in the refrigerator." He took a sip and immediately his face turned purple. "Oh my…"
"Beast?" Jamie asked. Hank ran into his private bathroom and threw up. "Oh man! They're trying to poison us!"
Meanwhile downstairs it was getting late and the girls were hanging around watching television, not talking to each other. "Okay we've seen the Simpsons Movie on cable, half of the Deadliest Catch marathon…" Amara sighed. "Somehow I thought that a sleepover would be more fun than this."
"Girls seriously," Tabitha sighed. "After these past two days this female bonding thing is getting a little old."
"I agree," Wanda sighed. "I'm starting to wonder if being here is such a good idea after all!"
"Oh really?" Amanda asked. "I'm having a blast! Running around trying not to get killed! Retrieving drunken friends. Finding out my boyfriend made out with someone else in the study hall closet!"
"Are we going back to that again?" Tabitha gave her a look. "I'm telling you! Kurt had a great time! Just because the Brotherhood and Risty…Okay Mystique was…"
Then Tabitha realized something and began to laugh hysterically. "Do we want to know or should we just call for a straightjacket?" Rogue asked.
"No, no…It's just…" Tabitha snickered. "I've just remembered the conversation we had in the bathroom that day! Oh man…Looking back on it now that was really funny! See I thought Risty had a crush on Kurt and of course it was Mystique so she couldn't really say that she had a crush on her son even though nobody knew he was her son so she had to pick someone to say she had a crush on to get out of it and she picked…You just had to have been there. Trust me. It was funny!"
"Well I'm glad someone found something funny about the past few days here," Wanda grumbled. "You know I thought life here would be easier than at the Brotherhood but all I've seen is that here at the Institute you just have more expensive stuff to wreck!"
"If you have such a problem with us why don't you go back to the Brotherhood?" Kitty folded her arms.
"Maybe I will!" Wanda snapped. "After I kick out your idiot boys! The only reason I came here was that I thought that I would find some sanity here and get into a lot less trouble! So much for that theory!"
"Yeah, yeah we're all idiots except you!" Tabitha rolled her eyes. "Change the record already!"
"Look guys maybe we should go apologize to the boys and have them come back home?" Kitty asked. "Then maybe things can go back to normal around here? Or as close to normal as it is ever gonna get for us."
"I agree," Amara said. "My inner rage is gone now. I think the boys have been punished enough. I mean can you imagine spending a few nights with the Brotherhood? No offense Wanda."
"None taken," Wanda agreed.
"I mean you know they're not having a good time over there," Kitty said.
"Maybe we should let them off the hook?" Rogue agreed. "We made our point."
"All right, we'll go talk to them in the morning," Jean sighed.
"Yeah and I'll definitely talk to Kurt about his past experiences in study hall!" Amanda grumbled.
"Oh please! It's not like it's a big secret! Kurt told Scott all about me and the study hall closet," Tabitha said. "I know that because Pietro spied on them in the locker room where they talked about it."
"Say what?" Amanda gave her a look.
"Wait Scott knew all about it and didn't tell me?" Jean was shocked.
"Well maybe because Scott can keep a secret?" Kitty asked.
"Who do you think told Bobby?" Tabitha gave her a look.
"The guys all knew about this?" Wanda was stunned.
"Of course they did," Tabitha said. "The Brotherhood learned about it from the X-Boys. Just I learned about the first make out session you and Scott had in the laundry room."
"The laundry room!" Everyone shouted.
"You told me it was your bedroom!" Rogue shouted.
"Okay I lied! I was embarrased! Deal with it!" Jean snapped.
"Please tell me it was not on top of dryer number seven," Rogue asked. Jean blushed. "Great! I'll never do my sheets again!"
"That's nothing," Tabitha said. "You wouldn't believe the stuff the guys talk about! I know this because Pietro is an incurable gossip! He'll tell anyone, anything at anytime! And Todd too."
"I don't know why you're shocked," Rogue rolled her eyes. "Guys talk about their girlfriends all the time. Trust me, I've absorbed enough perverts' minds to know!"
"So that means Kurt really was going out with you at the time!" Amanda realized. "Why that lying…"
"He might end up following that stupid cartoon and try and go out with Wanda!" Tabitha remarked.
"Now that I think about it he did say your character looked hot," Kitty looked at Wanda.
"And I know all those guys really liked Wanda's costume as well as that Emma Frost," Rogue growled. "Practically drooling all over the keyboard!"
"You know something? I think we should go and have a talk with the boys," Wanda growled.
"It's almost three in the morning!" Jean said.
"All the better to catch them," Wanda admitted.
"Yeah I've got my inner rage back," Amara said.
"Oh what the hell? I'm wound up and we've got nothing better to do," Rogue agreed. "Drag their butts back here so we can kick them again!"
"Good idea! Let's get 'em!" Kitty shouted. The girls stormed out of the building and drove off in the SUV.
They didn't notice a trio standing outside the door watching them run out and scream for blood. "Go away for a few days and all hell breaks loose," Logan grunted.
"Oh dear," Xavier sighed. "This could be a problem."
"Charles why do I have the feeling this time you're to blame for whatever insanity is going on?" Magneto sighed.
