Disclaimer: Don't own them never will!
IF: Hey I am so sorry for this taking forever to get out! I am really trying but with the end of the school year slowly coming my teachers believe that I should have more and more tests!
Wanda: Excuses, excuses!
IF: Well my brother is also on the computer when ever I want to use it!
Wanda: But you have your own computer…
IF: ^.^; Yea well I like using the family computer, since I don't have the internet on mine yet it is easy to post them up on the internet this way! Plus I just realized that I have homework! Crap, my English teacher is evil!
Wanda: Technically he DID say he was a demon spawn.
IF: Ok this is enough babbling, like I said before I know that I am taking forever to get these out but well ya see I have a lot of crap happening right now, this week being my last week in seminary (a morning church class before school) I have like seven things to memorize for it! Crap!
Wanda: Ok what she means is that she has a lot of shit she has to do so if we don't update for a while don't be shocked, summer break it three weeks away so that is the LONGEST that it would take!
IF: Ok you are scaring them! It won't take that long…I hope! Just kidding I should update some more soon but it will take a while since I have my other story I'm working on too! BTW Thank you so much to all the people that take the time to review this story and my other story, it really means a lot to me! It helps us out a lot! (Me and my muse!) But on with the story!
~~~~~ Rec Room ~~~
"I am so glad that Logan got called away on a mission! We would have been so dead if he had found out about are party last night!" Amara sighed, the other new recruits nodded with her. Bobby just smirked from his position on the floor as an idea came to him. Being the master of pranks or at least that was what the voices in his head that he listened called him (j/k) he waited for the flickering light bulb to turn on fully. A weird smile slipped onto his lips as the light bulb began to shine brightly. He grabbed a nearby notebook and started to scribble down notes and points in his plan. Soon he added some diagrams to it and a wicked chuckle erupted from his turned up lips.
"Uh guys he's at it again!" Ray warned, backing up from the new recruits unofficial leader. Jubilee and Jamie both looked at each other then quickly simultaneously dropped their Game Cube controllers and scrammed. Roberto and Ray turned tail in fear and ran for their lives. Sam's eyes grew large and he used his power to propel himself up the stairs and into the male living quarters. Amara fled the scene with speed almost matching Pietro's to the girls' dormitory. Bobby looked up to see the room empty of teammates and groaned.
"Why do they always do this when I come up with great scheme?" he asked himself, after thinking once again another idea came to him, this time on how to fix the fact that he had no one to work with. "Maybe Kurt will help and if he doesn't then Evan definitely will!" Rubbing his hands together, Bobby created an ice slide up the stairs and started up towards the boys' dormitory, an evil cackled could be heard the whole time.
~~~ Danger Room ~~~
Storm's eye's popped open suddenly. 'I could have sworn I heard something!' She shook her head and looked down at her watch, it read 6:59 PM. Ororo stood up quickly from her position on the floor and grinned at the view. Rogue sat cross-legged on a rock in the middle of a slowly trickling stream. Her eyes were closed and body was relaxed. The gothic child was at peace; no frown marred her face with a scrunched up expressions. Seeing how quickly she was progressing put the white haired women in good spirits. Ororo walked over to her pupil and gently shook her shoulder.
"Come child it is almost time for dinner."
Rogue slowly opened her jade eyes, blinking a few times. As her vision cleared she watched as her teacher corrected the room to its normal atmosphere, gray with bulky machinery. Getting up from her position she was a little stiff and stretched her muscles. Yawning she looked over at her rather amused teacher. Raising an eyebrow at Evan's aunt she waited for an answer to the unspoken question she asked. Her eyes pleading for Ororo Monroe to tell her the truth yet not sure if she wanted to know what the response would be to her inquiry.
"No you are doing fine Rogue, better than what was expected of you in fact." Ororo answered gaily, a smirk tugging at her lips. "But it is almost dinner time."
Her eyes widened as she let out a small gasp of surprise. "You mean we've been in here for three hours?"
When her teacher nodded she just looked shocked. Her mouth gapping open slightly as she thought of how she had felt as if she had just sat down a few moments ago instead of hours.
"It felt like a couple minutes, it was a lot of fun, thanks Ms. Monroe." Rogue whispered with gratitude.
She grinned back at her, "Any time child, and please call me Ororo. It will make things go more fluidly. Would you like to have another session after dinner possibly?"
"I would love to, thank you Ms.- erm Ororo" Rogue replied with a small grin and a hopeful look in her eye.
~~~ Brotherhood Manor ~~~
"Laughing? What laughing?" Lance tried to cover up, seeing the desperate look on his teammates face. Pietro mouthed thank you towards him as he tried to get out of Mystique's grasp, unsuccessfully. The red haired lady glared at him and turned to see Wanda. Her emotions were unreadable, for once. She was looking at Pietro or at least in his direction, she seemed to be staring off into space. Wanda shook her head as she remembered a situation similar to what was happening right now.
~~~ Wanda's Flash Back ~~~
"OOOOOHHHH Wanda has a crush!" Pietro blurted out as he sped around his sister, circling her in a tight track. He was smirking at the effect it had upon his twin. She only glared at her blur of a twin as a blush rose in her cheeks.
"I do not!" she denied hotly, putting her hands on her hips. 'Is he a telepath too? Oh god I hope not!' Not reveling one thought from her head she slammed on hand out in front of her and successfully stopped her brother, as he tumbled into a nearby wall.
"Yes you do!"
"Do not!"
"Do too!"
"Do not!"
"Do too!"
"Do not!"
"Do too!"
"Do not!"
"Do too!"
Suddenly the door to the room both twins were in slammed open with a great force. They suddenly went quiet in awe as the looked up to see a shadowed figure in the door jam. As he moved further into the room they identified the person as their father, Erik Magnus Lehnsherr, the master of magnetism Magneto. His fluffy white eyebrows blocked some of his sight as he gave both of his children a scrutinizing look.
"What is this about?" Erik asked menacingly, taking his time at giving his offspring smoldering looks.
"Uh I have a-"
"A book I wanted to read. ::Wanda looked questionably over at her brother:: Yeah I um wanted to read something and uh Wanda wouldn't admit to uh having any books. That's all." Pietro tried to lie to his father.
"Don't EVER lie to me!" roared his father, thrusting his hand out he used his power to redirect his son's blood.
"AHHHHHHHHHHH" he screeched in pain, tears came to his eyes.
"Now what were you fighting about." He demanded, letting his son's blood circulation return to normal.
Pietro gasped in pain as he tried to reply. He could only get out a rasp.
"What was that peon?"
"A..::gasp:: book." Magneto glared at his son and once again redirected his son's blood. With that he left the room with a wicked laugh. Smiling at his son's pain. Wanda ran over to her brother's side and shook him. Tears were coursing down her cheeks as she shook her head. Her young little body convulsed with shaking in sadness.
"Why P? Why? You should have just told him! Why didn't you just take the easy way out?" She cried, pounding on the ground.
"Because I love you" he gasped, wheezing in pain from the effort. She collapsed onto of him, giving him a giant hug.
"Oh P, I love you too!"
~~~ End Wanda's Flash Back ~~~
"Wanda for the last time what were you two goons laughing at?" growled Raven, glaring at the black haired goth. Wanda snapped out of her trance and glanced once more towards her brother. He was giving her a pleading look and she simply looked back at the blue skinned lady. Her face showed no emotions but inside her head she was waging a war on what she should do in this situation.
IF: Sorry but that is all for now.
Wanda: Gees don't you think that was short and out of character?
If: Well excuse me! You've only been in three episodes and you've had almost as must screen time as the rest of the brotherhood so I don't exactly have your personalities down pat yet!
Wanda: ya whatever!
IF: Anyways tell me what should happen to Petey, should he get caught or not? ? Some people don't want him caught but I am a bit vindictive so it's up to whatever you vote for people!!!
