The Craziness Continues
More weeks passed. And still the Brotherhood continued their prank campaign. The Joes were having trouble keeping them under watch all the time. Falcon thought it would be a good idea to have an in depth background check on all the mutants.
"So you got all their files huh?" Falcon asked as he returned to their apartment base of operations.
"Yeah," Jinx nodded. "Boy there are some real doozies here. Interesting reading."
"Look at Rogue's," Alpine said. "Oh so that's her real name. Hey look at this where it says mother! But this says…Oh wow! We'd better get this info back to headquarters!"
"Well I just got some info from headquarters," Falcon sighed. "It seems we have another operative in the building. And it's not Cobra folks."
"Who is it?" Jinx asked.
"One of Trask's personal aides," Falcon told her. "SHEILD just gave us the info today. They've been trying to track Trask down after that Sentinel debacle."
"Oh goody," Alpine groaned. "Just what we need. It's not enough we have Joes and Cobras and X-Men and Brotherhood….Now we have a fifth organization to deal with at school!" He looked at the file. "And the winner is…Henry Guyrich our vice principal! Wonderful!"
"Oh great," Gung Ho rolled his eyes. "Just what we need. Now how are we supposed to take down a vice principal who technically hasn't done anything against the law yet?"
"I just hope he doesn't know about us," Jinx sighed.
"You think he does?" Mainframe asked.
"Nah," Falcon shook his head. "I'm pretty sure even Cobra won't blow their cover for him. We'd better check the files over. Tomorrow's going to be another wonderful day."
"Yeah well just try not to get into another war with Zarana tomorrow okay?" Jinx told him. "We want to keep the kids alive, remember?"
"Hey I can't help it! She annoys me!"
"Annoys you?" Jinx's eyes narrowed into a deadly look. "You don't know the meaning of annoyance! Did you forget who her brother is and what he did to my clan? If I can tolerate the man who murdered my clan's leader and framed my cousin for murder, you can put up with Zarana!" She stormed out.
"You always know just what to say don't you?" Alpine said to Falcon.
"Oh shut up," Falcon grumbled.

Mr. Pine walked around the corridors, keeping a careful eye on Guyrich when he saw him. "Pine here," He spoke to Breaker on his communicator. "Nothing here so far. Of course it's only first period…"
"HELP!" A voice screamed from one of the classrooms.
"What did I tell you?" He grumbled as he went inside. "What the?"
Mr. Rafael was glued to the blackboard. "Get me down from here!" He shouted. "Those maniacs glued me up here!"
"Awww," Mr. Pine drawled. "Well, well, well…look at this. You know I never could get performance art before. I have to hand it to you kids, the glitter is a nice touch!"
"Just get me down from here," He snarled.
"Don't worry I'm sure the janitor has something that will peel you off. I'll get it from him and help you down," He walked out. "Eventually."
"No!" Mr. Rafael screamed. "Wait you can't leave me up here with those lunatics on the loose! Tabitha Smith don't you dare! No! No! NOOOOOOOOO!"
Alpine chuckled. "Hey Breaker guess what, the New Mutants glued Zandar to the blackboard again! Remind me never to get on those kids' bad side."
"Well at least that takes care of one Cobra for now," Breaker told him.
"Yeah it's the others I'm worried about," Alpine nodded. "Let's see what else these knuckleheads have planned for the day." He decided to peek into the Baroness's room. "What's this snake up to?"
The Baroness was banging her head on the desk repeatedly. "Shut up all of you! Just shut up!" She said over and over as paper airplanes were thrown around.
Alpine beat a hasty retreat. "No way I am going in there without a machine gun," He muttered.
KABOOOM! An explosion rocked another classroom. "Okay," Mr. Tanzar's voice filtered out of the smoke filled room. "Who put the ink cartridges over the Bunsen Burners?"
"Maybe we don't have to worry about Cobra," Alpine said. "Maybe the kids will take Cobra down for us!"
"One two three la conga!" The school nurse danced out of her room. She reeked of alcohol. "One two three la conga!"
"Oh great," Alpine sighed. "The school nurse is drunk again. I gotta get her before she does another striptease on the lawn." He chased after her just as Principal Kelly rounded the corner.
"Oh goody," Kelly sighed. "The Nutty Nurse is at it again!" He decided to walk very quickly away from the scene. Unfortunately he came a little too fast just as the bell rang.
"AAAAAGH!" Kelly screamed as he slipped on the wet floor. He slid down the hall, knocking several students and teachers over.
"Oops," Bazooka Dave gulped. "That's not good." He walked away whistling.
"Medic…" One student groaned weakly.
"I hate Mondays," Kelly groaned before he passed into unconsciousness.
Guyrich walked by him with disgust on his face. "This is a disgrace," He muttered angrily. "The stupid freaks have turned this place into a madhouse! Of course having a buffoon like Kelly running things isn't much of a help either."
He bumped into Lance who was hanging around the hallways with the Brotherhood. "Hey how's it going Vice Principal?" Lance joked.
"Get to class you trash!" Guyrich snarled at Lance and the others. He walked off.
"Trash?" Lance's eyebrows raised higher. "Gentlemen and Lady…Are we going to take that?"
"No way," Pietro sneered.
"Them's fighting words," Fred grunted.
"Down right un-neighborly," John nodded.
"I've got it," Wanda snickered, using her hex powers to have the trophy case crash down on Guyrich's head.
"Good one," Pietro high fived his sister.
"Mommy I want pancakes for breakfast," Guyrich moaned before he passed out.

"Are you sure this is gonna work?" Taryn asked Anya.
"You're not having cold feet are you?" Anya asked. "Remember what she did to you!"
"I know, I know," Taryn sighed. "But this plan thing has been going for weeks now and I don't think it's working!"
"Of course it's working!" Anya said. "Miss Perfect is no longer as popular as she used to be! Just keep giving it time. Scott will dump her soon enough! You'll see!"
"Look out!" Taryn shouted as a tennis ball flew out of the gym window.
"They're at it again," Anya chuckled.
"Don't laugh we have them later on today," Taryn warned her.
"Yes but first we have Algebra," She told her. "That's when the fun begins!"
True enough they sat down in Algebra class. When the teacher turned off the lights immediately people started to snicker. Jean looked around. "What's so funny?" She asked.
"Oh dear," The teacher blinked. "Uh Miss Grey…nice underwear."
Jean looked down at herself. Her underwear shone through her clothing. Everyone hooted and jeered at the glow in the dark peep show. She ran out screaming.
"I told you so," Anya laughed.
"How did you do that?" Wanda nudged her. "I want to learn how to do that!"
"Trade secret," She snickered.

"My arm's still sore," Gambit groaned. They were cooking in home ec class.
"I thought that cast comes off tomorrow?" Rogue asked.
"No it's still sore from the attack of the tennis balls in gym class," He groaned.
"I swear somebody is gonna get killed in that class one of these days," Kitty grumbled as she stirred the pot. "Uh oh…" She held up what used to be a spoon, but the end was burnt away. "That's not a good sign is it?"
"No," Rogue blanched.
"AHHH!" Lance screamed as his project caught on fire.
"Not again!" Mr. LaFitte groaned as he grabbed the extinguisher. Still he couldn't stop the room from filling up with smoke. "How do you do that Alvers? This is the tenth time in a row!"
"Great," Rogue gasped for breath. "If the Gym teachers from Hell don't kill us, Lance and Kitty's cooking will!"

After school the Cobra team gathered in a classroom. "Stupid brats!" Zandar snapped as he removed bits of glue from his forearms. "If that wasn't bad enough that female Joe ninja started a paper airplane war with my class!"
"Well you really shouldn't have used language like that in the first place," Baroness told him. "Monkeywrench, you've been listening in on the Joe's listening devices, what have you found out?"
"Well," Monkeywrench consulted his notes. "Brad is still deciding whether to take Lisa or Rachel to the homecoming dance. But what he doesn't know is that Lisa is interested in taking his best friend Luke. Mindy, the cheerleader Duncan's been seeing has just found out that her best friend Karen had a date with Duncan behind her back! Meanwhile Duncan now has the hots for…."
"I meant any news concerning our mission micro brain!" The Baroness swatted him on the head with a rolled up magazine.
"Oh that," He rubbed his head. "Well…Kurt, the blue fuzzball and Amanda are still going at it like bunnies. Ray and Tabitha had another argument today at fourth period but they made up in the boy's bathroom during sixth period. Jean's popularity took a total downswing today due to the incident with the glow in the dark underwear…"
"My, my," Ms. Baron snickered. "Poor Jean."
"Yes well you must admit she is a fun target," Anya walked into the room. "By the time we're finished with her she'll be easy prey." She instantly her blond hair changed to long green hair.
"Excellent Zanya," Zartan smiled. "Anything else to report?"
"I think the Joes may have discovered who Guyrich is," She said. "Judging by the way they were watching him."
"Good work Zanya," Zartan nodded. "Your observation skills are a great help to us."
"What do you expect?" Zanya smiled. "I am your daughter after all."
Yes in the new comics Zartan has a daughter! I kind of played around with her a bit so she'd be a teenager in this. So now we know who Cobra's two contacts are, but who is the Joe's contact? Who's helping them? The answer may surprise you. But I am getting ahead of myself. That won't happen for a while yet. I have other evil plans in mind.
Next chapter is one of them. Mystique discovers someone knows her secret and enters into a new alliance!
