Real World: Bayville
Episode One: Introductions Aren't Necessary
* ~ *
Author's Note: This chapter and all the chapters following it will now be written in my own mix of laziness and script style. ( identifies actions) Everything else will be pretty easy to explain. The following mutants are as follows- Todd, Bobby, Remy, and Jamie for the guys. The girls are Rogue, Tabitha, and dum dum dum the horrible Jean. It was a hard choice, and I wished I could've included every mutant you guys wanted, but I wanted a certain clash of personalities and such. And for anyone disappointed with my choice of mutants: there will be guest stars! On with the fic!

(Zoom in on a boy with brown hair and blue eyes. He ices himself up and laughs while he pours superglue into a bottle labeled shampoo. Female screams are heard. He drops the bottle and quickly rides off on an ice slide as three girls chase after his covered in permanent marker. Caption: Bobby Drake aka Iceman)
This is a story...
(Cut to a lovely girl with red hair and emerald eyes. She is kicking around a soccer ball with Boom Boom. She passes expertly to the blonde, who kicks it back. Unfortunately, she's made a miscalculation of distance and the ball is traveling towards a very expensive sculpture at high speed. A pink glow suddenly surrounds the ball and it floats harmlessly to the ground. She smiles at the camera. Caption: Jean Grey aka... Jean Grey?)
Of seven mutants...
(Cut to a girl with sort blonde hair, sunglasses, and an over-load of make-up. She is dancing around to the music in her Discman and blowing a massive bubble of pink bubblegum. It blows up and sticks to her face. Blue eyes widen. A boy walks by and laughs, but stops when her time bomb depants him. Caption: Tabitha Smith aka Boom Boom)
Picked to live in a house...
(Screen fades to a brown-haired boy who appears no older than twelve. He's playing Nintendo with Bobby and kicking his butt at it too. Bobby "accidentally" elbows him. The boy suddenly splits into four clones of himself. Bobby delivers the finishing blow while he glares. Caption: Jamie Maddox aka Multiple Man)
And have their lives taped...
(Cut to a grunge-looking boy with rustic brown hair, red-on-black demonic eyes, a goatee, and a brown trenchcoat. He's playing poker with the rest of the mutants. He had all the chips but two. When he reveals a royal flush, the others throw down their cards in anger. Caption: Remy LeBeau aka Gambit)
T' see what happens...
( Fade to a gothic girl with chin-length brown hair, a white streak, and an obvious fetish with purple make-up. She is lounging in a leather sofa with The Vampire LeStat in her hand. Jean comes in and asks if she wants to go play pool with the rest of the teenagers. She only glares. Caption: ::blur:: aka Rogue)
When people stop bein' polite...
( The camera moves to the backyard where a poorly hygienic boy is hopping around and trying to dodge Remy's kinetically charged playing cards. He miss times a leap and collides into a tree. He slumps to the ground. A smug Cajun stands above him. His tongue darts out and catches a fly. Caption: Todd Tolanske aka Toad)
And start gettin' real!
(Zoom in on the mansion)
The Real World: Bayville!
(Title spans across the front of the house. Screen fades and the camera is now focused on the driveway, where people are pulling up. Zoom into a black SUV where the first three people are riding.)
Jean: Remember, Xavier asked us to appear on the show to set a good example for mutantkind all over the world. So we should be on our best behavior and show the world that we're just like normal people.
Bobby: Dude, it's Real World! Normal people do eachother and have wild parties!
Jamie: I've never been to a real party before.
Jean: And you won't get the chance now. You're far too young. (turns to Iceman) And Bobby, if you play one more joke on anyone here, I swear you will get payback you've never dreamed of.
Bobby: You're ruining my fun, Jeannie!
Jamie: Well your jokes are just plain mean! You should really treat people better.
Bobby: God, why did you have to get cast?
Jamie: (thinks *Well besides the fact that Free wants torture me and the other mutants...*) Because of my adorableness? (puppy dog eyes)
Jean: He is cute.
Jamie: See, I told you. (shyly looks up at Jean) So does that mean I have a chance with you?
Jean: Don't even try.
Bobby: (snickers) Nice one, Jamie.
(Cut to the inside of a beat up Camero. Gambit is driving and Rogue is in the passenger seat.)
Gambit: So I guess I'm roomin' wit you, p'tite? (He winks)
Rogue: (Rolls her eyes) Whatevah.
Gambit: Cat go yo' tongue, chere? Or are ya too stunned by my handsomeness t' reply?
(Screen fades to a close-up of Rogue. She's wearing a very angry expression and a very low-cut black shirt.)
Rogue: Why the hell did h have t' ride with that idiot? Let alone be on this ridiculous show? Ah mean, "chere" and "petite"? What is he thinkin'?! Why is he even hittin' on me? Who does he think he his?! Ah wish ah woulda rode with Jean instead. Ah know ah'm gonna end up hatin' this guy...
(Fade back to the car. "Big Pimpin'" plays in the background.)
Gambit: So you ya play good cards, chere? Mebbe Gambit'll teach ya so we can play some strip poker...
Rogue: In y'r dreams, creep!
(Camera fades to a close-up of Remy. He's smirking.)
Gambit: Hey, at first I t'ought she was gay. After all, she's a goth and this is de Real World. An if she not int' Gambit den she definitely has t' be gay.
(Cut to Tabitha and Toad.)
Tabitha: So just because I once lived with you, it means I have to drive you to the house and stink up this car in the process?
Toad: What's the deal, yo? The smell'll fade in a couple'a months.
Tabitha: This car needs to be back in the mall parking lot in two hours. I kinda borrowed it.
Toad: Don't ya mean ya jacked it?
Tabitha: I'm gonna give it back!
Toad: -Bleep-, .... Did I just get bleeped, yo? Anyway, I stole all the time an I at least admitted to it. But I guess since you a X-Geek now ya gotta act all goody-goody an whatnot.
Tabitha: (rolls her eyes) Puhlease. (as if to prove her point, she speeds off. Toad is thrust back into his seat as Tabby puts the pedal to the medal.) Wooo hooo! Real World here we come!
Toad: Ahhhhh! Oh God, I'm sorry. If ya get me outta this alive I'll take a shower tomorrow! I swear!
(Screen changes to the inside of the mansion, where the seven mutants are getting acquainted. The cliques have already started forming. The X-Men flock to one side, and the BoM members flock to the other. Gambit is mingling with the women of the house.)
Tabitha: So we don't have any adult supervision? That's so awesome!
(Enter a red-head with blue skin and yellow cat-like eyes. She wears a smirk, and a few mutants jump back in surprise. Caption: Raven Darkholme aka Mystique)
Mystique: As much as I'd love to leave you kids to your own devices, I guess I'm going to have to play baby-sitter. Xavier refuses to leave you children alone to play, so the director added me into the cast.
Toad: Ahhhh! (hides behind Gambit, who just laughs) Why'd they have to pick you?
Mystique: (counts off the reasons using her fingers) Because I'm beautiful and blue and evil... I guess the network just felt like representing the sexy, freaky, and evil mutants.
Rogue: (glares at Mystique) If they wanted some one freaky why didn't they ask Kurt? Besides, Toad's already here.
Toad: Hey!
Mystique: (stiffens) Are you suggesting that anything that came out of my womb is anything near freakish?
Bobby: (snickers) Yeah, well look at Rogue.
Rogue: You -bleep-ing jerk! (charges towards him)
Mystique: (separates the two mutants) I adopted Rogue. (narrows her eyes in Bobby's direction) And don't you think you can insult any of my children without paying, you little twip. (picks up Iceman by the throat)
(A growl is heard and Mystique drops the boy. A funny wing-haired man enters, sniffing the air. He is followed by a silver-haired woman with dark skin. Close up on the man. Caption: Logan aka Wolverine. Camera moves to the woman. Caption: Ororo Munroe aka Storm.)
Wolverine: I thought I smelled something foul.
Kitty: Like, Mr. Logan? Storm? What are you doing here?
Storm: Wolverine was already signed up to be a chaperone, but we both decided Mystique was not the best guardian for you girls. So I was also added.
Bobby: Aw, man, this isn't gonna be any fun! (groans)
Jean: Come on now, at least with Mr. Logan we can train a little.
(Everyone groans.)
Gambit: (leans over to Rogue) Too bad dis ain't survivor. She'd be de first one Remy'd vote off.
(Rogue stifles a laugh.)
Mystique: (looks at Ororo and Logan) They couldn't keep you two apart, could they?
Storm: (raises her chin, as though Mystique is beneath her) Where is Creed, Raven?
Mystique: (growls while Wolverine laughs. Everyone else looks confused.) My, this is going to be a fun experience. (she says this through gritted teeth.)
Storm: Now, children, I expect you to be on your best behavior. I do not want you to misrepresent the mutant race. Is that clear?
(Mumbles are heard)
Mystique: I don't care what you do, kids. Just find your beds and for Christ's sake, if any of you go near my room-
Wolverine: Raven!
Mystique: (turns to glare and folds her arms across her chest) What?
Storm: By the Bright Lady... tell me why have you made me suffer in a house with this woman?
Mystique: I should be asking the same question, Wind Rider.
Bobby: Catfight! (makes hissing noises) Now if only they'll rip off each other's shirts and roll around in the muddy brawl...
(Remy begins to salivate at the image)
Rogue: (punches Remy and kicks Bobby) You perverts! That's mah mom y'r talkin' about! Not t' mention... Storm!
Remy: (shrugs) Dey don' have anyt'ing t' do wit Gambit.
Rogue: (growls) Ah'm gettin' unpacked!!!
Jamie: (shrugs and follows her upstairs) Bye guys!
Tabitha: (bats her eyelashes at Remy) Sooo... you're an Acolyte, huh?
Remy: Oui, Mademoiselle.
Tabitha: (almost swoons) And French, too?
(Bobby, Toad, and Jean exchange glances. For once, they agree on something as they ascend to the rooms upstairs)
(Mystique is just glaring at Wolverine and Storm. They are glaring back. Tabitha and Remy walk off to the pool outside. Silence.)
*cut to pool*
Tabitha: Well, it was nice talking to you, Prince Charming. (giggles) I'll see you later for a swim, cutie!
Remy: (smiles) Uh, an could you do me a lil' favor?
Tabitha: Sure. What?
Remy: Invite a lil' p'tite belle by de name of Rogue t' join us? (winces when he sees her expression)
Tabitha: (throws a bomb at him) YOU JERK!
Remy: (is thrown back a few feet into the pool) I was hopin' t' get a swim in, but I also woulda liked t' change int' my trunks first.
*camera travels upstairs to the boys room*
Jamie: (jumps on the top bed of the bunk bed) I get the top!
Bobby: No way! You're going to make yourselves fall off! (he paused, wondering if he just used the lamest way to describe Multiple's powers). You get the bottom bunk.
Jamie: (sulks) Fine! (He reluctantly climbs down and throws his duffel bag on the bottom bed.)
Toad: (rolls his eyes) I'll take the top bunk over here, yo! (hops up there)
Bobby: (plugs his nose) Couldn't you get your own room? I'm going to smell like Toad all day!
Toad: Oh, that reminds me. I promised da big man upstairs I'd shower tonight. (hops off presumably to bathe. Bobby and Jamie look at each other. They get down on their knees and praise the Lord.)
*cut to the adult's wing*
Mystique: (She actually is taping a line across the room) We stay on our sides. Is that clear?
Storm: (hands on hips) Your side is larger than mine!
Mystique: So?
Storm: I'm claustrophobic!
Mystique: Since when is that my problem?
(thunder cracks in the distance)
Mystique: Fine, fine! But I get the side by the bathroom! (readjusts the tape)
*cut to Wolverine*
(Logan is watching T.V., listening to the chaos all around him and smirking.)

Jean: Next time... on the Real World: Bayville...
(Outside in the swimming pool. Rogue is lounging on a lawn chair, reading in a green bikini. She puts down her book and reluctantly walks over to get an umbrella for shade.)
Remy: (walks by and pinches her butt. Picks up his pace, whistling.
Rogue: Why you!
Jean: (now a bleach blonde) Robert Drake! What did I tell you about your pranks?!

Love it? Hate it? Please review! More coming up believe me! Mystique and Storm were pretty much added for comic relief because I love them bickering. Romy? Babby? - lol or whatever you wanna call it.
