Rogue slowly stood up, a small smirk on her face. She picked up her guitar and walked over to where the rest of the band and equipment was. "About tahme," she muttered under her breath.
Kurt bamfed over next to Roberto and they ran through a last sound check while Tabby adjusted her mike and Jubes positioned herself behind her keyboard.
Scott sat down behind the drum set and noticed that everyone was staring at him. "What? Tabby and Jubilee are the ones who organized this thing, not me," he said, a laugh in his voice.
Slightly fazed by Scott's refusal to take over, Jubes just nodded at Tabby with a shrug.
"Well, um, okay, then. Um, I guess that since this is the first practice we should, uh..." Tabby tried to think of something for them to do, "you know, play a couple of songs everybody knows to, uh, get used to everybody else's style. So, uh, maybe we could do something easy, like, uh, like...." Tabby trailed off, obviously unable to think of a song.
"How about 'Everywhere'? I love Michelle Branch!" suggested Jubilee.
Bobby groaned. "Come on, Jubes. We need real music-Get It Faster. Jimmy Eat World rocks!"
Ray snorted. "I say something by the Offspring-Keep 'Em Separated's a classic. Can't go wrong with that."
"How about Gloria Estefan?" Roberto piped up.
"NO!!" everyone yelled, which started a huge argument among Ray, Tabby, Bobby, Jubilee, and Roberto about what music was best, and why the others sucked.
Rogue and Scott, who had both remained quiet, shared a look, which gave Rogue an idea. She walked over and said something quietly to Scott. He grinned and nodded.
She hurried back to her position and plugged in her guitar, and Scott gave a quiet four-count that was barely audible over the yelling teens. Rogue stared playing the intro to System of a Down's "Toxicity."
All of a sudden, everyone got real quiet. Not because Rogue was playing System, or even because Scott was, but because Storm had wandered into the room.
And was singing along.
