A change in the air

Disclaimer: "Oh good, my dog's found the chainsaw".
Okay, i want to thank everyone for not flaming me for that last chapter.I think i have been very fair to Todd and Sid, ths is their first big fight really. I'm too much of..well...a Todd fan to make him TOO miserable. I really hope i haven't lost any readers you're still reading this right?
I was going to put this all in one chapter. But then i saw how long it was and decided to spread it between two. Also, i wanted to make you people suffer a little bit more, 'cause i happen to be evil.
Chapter 12 - Mixed emotions.
Sidney pulled away from Lance and sighed. She then gave a squeak of shock and backed away.
"That can't be good", she said, putting her head in her hands, "what have i done to deserve all this?".
"Oh....thanks", said Lance saracsitically, but then sighed, "but you're right...I can't do this to Todd. I think i might have eaten a bit too much cookie dough or something. I'm sorry Sid".
"Oh don't blame yourself", said Sidney, sitting down, "i'm a mess at the moment. Heck, i lost my job, everyone at school thinks i'm a freak, my boyfriend has a crush on my roomate..need i go on?".
"I guess were both screwed up at the moment huh?", said Lance, sitting down next to her.
"You got that right", said Sidney, then gave a slight chuckle, "i think we'd better get rid of that cookie dough".
"Yeah", said Lance with a laugh, "God knows what would happen if Pietro got his hands on it".
They both laughed and then sighed.
"Can we just agree that it was a over-emotional comfort thing?", asked Sidney.
"I think that's what i'd call it", said Lance, "and may we never speak of it again".
"Agreed", said Sidney.
"Ha!. Thats what you think!".
Lance and Sidney spun around to see Pietro leaning on the kitchen doorway.
"Pietro", warned Sidney with a growl.
"Don't you even think about it Speedy", warened Lance, a slight tremor begining to start in the ground.
"You know, as seen as neither of you are my favorite people right now", said Pietro, "i think i may just go and inform Todd about this. Bye bye".
With that, he sped upstairs, doging the grab Sidney made for him easily. About a minute later, a very loud "WHAT!!!!", echoed throughout the house. Before Lance and Sidney knew it, Todd was in the kitchen, staring angrily at them. He turned to Lance.
"Some friend you are!", he said, narrowing his eyes, "the very second there's trouble between me an' Sid, ya swoop in like a vulture!".
"But...", started Lance.
"No 'buts' about it buddy", snarled Todd, "how would you like it if i went and did that to Kitty huh?. You know i'd NEVER do anythin' like that to ya".
"Todd...don't blame Lance", said Sidney with a sigh, "i mean, were both a little on the emotional side at the.....".
"Oh i blame Lance", said Todd, crossing his arms, "and what are you doin'?. Tryin' ta get back at me 'cause'a Wanda?".
"No!", said Sidney, standing up, "it was just a.....slip up. We don't have any feelings for one another, i swear".
"Yeah right", said Todd, "so what happened?. You guys tripped and just HAPPENED to fall onto each others faces?".
"She was upset", said Lance, "all i was doing was comforting her".
"Thats how you comfort people?", said Todd wide-eyed, "well remind me never ta come ta YOU when i'm down and out!".
"Hey i wouldn't NEED comforting if it wasn't for you", said Sidney, getting between Lance and Todd, staring at the frog-like mutant, "you like Wanda so much have her!. I'm going for a walk!".
With that, she charged out of the house, slamming the door behind her. Todd turned back coldly on Lance.
"Thanks alot", he said, narrowing his eyes, "i really hope ya pleased wit' yaself".
"Hey, YOU'RE the one acting like an idiot", said Lance, "if you would open your eyes for five seconds, you'd see how much Sidney cares about you. I can't believe you're willing to throw it all away to chase after Wanda. And she doesn't even LIKE you".
"I don't want to throw it all away!", shouted Todd, "i love Sid. Not that it matters now. Heck, i've been tryin' ta apppologise to her fer ages, i don't think she'll want ta listen ta me now".
"You want a tip Toad?", asked Lance, crossing his arms.
"Not from you", said Todd, narrowing his eyes, "you've wrecked everything!. I don't even want ta stay in the same room as you right now!".
Todd started to leave, only to have Lance put a hand on his shoulder. Todd turned around and stared at Lance.
"Go find her", said Lance, staring Todd right in the eyes, "'cause if you don't, you're gonna regret it for the rest of your life".
Todd narrowed his eyes then took Lance's hand off his shoulder.
"Like i said, i don't care what you want ta say", said Todd, "so just butt out".
With that, Todd left the kitchen and walked into the front room, only to walk into a smirking Pietro.
"What do YOU want?", asked Todd.
"Hey, chill out frog-dude", said Pietro, holding up his hands, "it wasn't ME who tried to steal your girlfriend. But hey, girls are nothing but trouble, look at me!. I can't keep a steady relationship for more than a week, 'cause i dump 'em before they can dump on me. Trust me, it's too much hard work trying to keep a relationship with one girl".
Todd sighed and closed his eyes.
"You know what Pietro?. You're right", he said, "it IS alot of hard work...but it's worth it. You helped me make an important decision. Thanks".
Without another word, Todd walked out of the house. Pietro blinked and then chuckled.
"Well my work is done", he said, sitting down on a chair, "that was more fun than i thought it would be".
"Your gonna have your legs broken", said Lance, walking up behind the albino mutant, "they're gonna be broken in so many places, you'll never be able to walk again, let alone run".
"Ah ah ah Lancey-boy", said Pietro, waggling a finger at him, "you do and Magento will be on you in a second".
"Who said anything about ME hurting you", said Lance with a smirk, "i'm gonna go see Wanda".
"Wanda!", yelped Pietro, "Lance, you don't want to do that, honest. It was just a joke, no harm in it right?".
"NO harm in it!", shouted Lance, "you just destroyed a loving relationship!. You're a little, wrech, you deserve to be burried alive for what you've done".
"Hey, chill out, i did Toad a favour", said Pietro, "who'd want to be shackled to one girl for the rest of their lives?".
"I would", said Lance sadly, "i would have loved nothing more than to spend the rest of my life with Kitty, but that isn't going to work".
"Well there's more single guys in the house then", said Pietro smugly, "i don't know what Todd saw in Sid anyway, she was very...violent".
"He LOVES her", said Lance, "can't you see that, you idiot?. Oh wait, you seem to be unable to feel that emotion, just like your daddy".
"Quit it", snarled Pietro, "you're forgeting who's in charge here Rocky".
"You can take charge", said Lance, "which means YOU have to sort out your teamates, which means you have to fix what you've just broken".
"Hey, i wasn't the one who kissed her", said Pietro.
The house began to shake violently, causing a good deal of plaster to fall off the walls.
"Listen to me Speed-boy", snarled Lance, "it meant nothing. Both me and Sid agreed on that. Todd wouldn't have found out if it wasn't for you. So 'oh mighty leader', i suggest you sort out your teamates, or your going to lose one or even both of them".
"And what if i don't?", said Pietro.
"I have Wanda on speed dial", said Freddy, walking in with the phone.
The house stopped shaking.
"You're choice Speedy", said Lance smugly.
Sidney was sitting on a bench in Bayville park with her head in her hands. Next to her was a tree that had practically been cut in half by claw marks. She sighed, it had got rid of her pent up agression, but it hadn't calmed the pain in her heart.
"You okay Belle?, or did some other crazy cat-girl rip dat tree apart?".
Sidney looked up to see Remy.
"No....it was me", said Sidney with a sigh, "i kinda screwed up my relationship with Todd".
"Really?", said Remy, sitting down, "how you manage that?. A'h mean, i t'ought you guys were really close".
"I got mad at him for having a crush on Wanda", said Sidney, "and then i kissed Lance".
Remy winced.
"Ouch", he said, "errr...sorry, dat was tactless".
"It's okay", said Sidney with a smile, "it's just that, right now i don't want to think about another guy, i don't want to be NEAR another guy. I HATE guy's right now...no offense".
"None taken", said Remy with a chuckle, "but you know how much he likes you non?".
"Yeah, i know", said Sidney, standing up, "i just need to....to..get my head together".
"Good luck chere", said Remy, as he watched her walk away.
And thats where i leave it until next time. I bet you people really hate me huh?. Please review, and the next chapter will be up soon. Until next time...
