First
of all I'd need to thank my friend Ricki she helped a
lot with her insanity and good ideas. Adam-bat and That
Swedish Guy for your absolutely wonderful ideas. They will all be in the
story. 'Specially the moose and the flaming marshmallow.
lol. Hope you all enjoy and
that it's as good as Mallrats(or better). :D
X-Men Camping Trip
By Nari and Ricki
Chapter One
"First of all, thank you all for coming, I know that this is a rather
sudden meeting," Cyclops spoke to the people who were currently gathered
in the war room.
"Stop with the pleasantries, Cyke and tell us
why the hell we're here?" Wolverine growled, angry at being pulled away
from his pool game with the Cajun. He was just about to wipe the table with him
and now Remy would find every excuse imaginable not to continue.
"I have come up with a new way for us to learn to be a family again."
The room filled with groans and mutters of disbelief. "And you can all
shut up now because no one is getting out of this!" Eight sets of glares
were directed at him.
"Would you get on with it, Cyke?"
"We are all going on a camping trip!" Cyclops said enthusiastically.
*THUD* "BOBBY! Get up, it's not that bad!" Bobby struggled unhappily
to his feet.
"You have got to be kidding us?"
"Did y' get dropped on y' head a lot when y' were a child den?"
"That's it! He's finally lost it!"
"I told you all to be quiet! You are all going to go on this trip and you
are all going to like it dammit!! This will give us a
chance to spend some quality time together. Now go and get packed we leave
tomorrow!! Morning!!" With that he stalked out of
the room, leaving behind a room of shocked X-men.
The next morning, very very early....
"Okay let's do a check to make sure that everybody's here. Bobby?" He
looked around to see Bobby sleeping in the back seat of the van.
"BOBBY!" Bobby startled out of sleep, quickly sitting up. *bang*
"Owwww." Bobby rubbed the front of his head
where he had hit the door frame.
"Good. Logan?" Wolverine
grunted in reply. "Rogue?"
"Ready and raring, sugah."
"Jean is here, of course. Sam?"
"Ah'm here."
"Warren?" Warren flipped him off and
walked away grumbling."Storm?"
"Of course, Cyclops."
"Remy?" Silence. "Remy?" Still nothing. "Where the hell is Gambit?" He
looked around at all the half asleep people. "And Jubilee?"
"Ah guess they're still sleepin'."
"How is this supposed to be a fun trip if you people do not cooperate!?!
I'll go and wake them up!" Cyclops stalked off.
#
Cyclops stalked up the stairs and into Remy's room, an empty bucket by his
side. He growled to himself when he saw Remy snuggled on the bed, happily
asleep.
"REMY! GET YOUR LAZY ASS OUT OF BED!!!"
"..."
"GAMBIT!! I'M WARNING YOU."
"...go t' hell..."
"Okay, fine, but don't say that I didn't warn you." Cyclops walked
out of the room and into Remy's bathroom. He filled the bucket with cold water
and went back into the room. "This is your last warning. I suggest you get
up."
"...die alien scum..." *SPLASH* "AHHH. Merde! What de hell?!" Remy
jerked up and glared at Cyclops. Cyclops grabbed his wrists and pulled. *THUD*
He smiled down at Remy sweetly.
"Time to get up."
"Damn sadist," Remy grumbled but got up off the floor and went
into the bathroom.
"YOU HAVE TEN MINUTES!!" He walked out of Remy's room and over to Jubilee's.
A few minutes went by before Remy heard a thud and then Jubilee cursing
Cyclops.

Fifteen minutes later and everyone was finally accounted for. No one was going
to be skipping out on this trip.
"Now, we need to figure out who's going to ride in which car."
"I think that it would be a good idea for you boys to take the van. We
girls will take the car," Jean suggested. "It will give you a chance
to bond."
"You're kidding. Please, tell me you're kidding. Jean, there is no way I
am riding in the car with them!"
"Now Scott, this trip was your idea after all. You're the one who said we
needed to bond."
"No, I said *they* needed to bond not me."
"Scott," Jean said in warning.
"Fine, you guys all get in the van." Everybody grumbled but complied,
climbing sluggishly into the van. Scott turned to Jean and the girls.
"Why don't we make this more interesting, Scott?"
"What do you mean?"
"A race. First one to the camping site
wins."
"No way are you girls going to beat us!" Wolverine said from the passenger
side of the van.
"Care to make a bet on that?" Jean asked.
"You're on!"
"The losers have to do all the work when we get there."
"You got yourself a bet, Jeannie." Jean and Wolverine shook hands,
sealing the deal. Scott and the girls then quickly climbed into their
respective vehicles and the two vehicles took off towards the woods.
Two hours later with the boys...
"Dammit, Cyke.
Yer driving too slow! Those
girls are gonna beat us if you keep driving like an
old lady!"
"I know how to drive, Wolverine."
"Are ya sure about that? Let me drive. I'll win
this bet!"
"If I let you drive we'd get there in pieces!"
"At least with me driving we *would* get there! We'll all be old men by
the time you get there!"
"Are we there yet?" Bobby asked from the backseat.
"NO! WE WERE NOT THERE FIVE MINUTES AGO AND WE ARE NOT THERE NOW!!"
"How 'bout now?" Sam asked.
"NO!!!!"
"Now?" Bobby asked.
"NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!"
"Are we there now?" Sam asked.
"ARGH!!!"
"'Kay, y' ready?"
"Ready."
"1, 2, 3. HAH. Rock! I win again!"
"You must be cheating!"
"It's rock, paper, scissors Warren! How c'n y' cheat at rock, paper, scissors?!"
"I don't know but I'm sure you could find a way!"
"You stupid flyboy! y' can't cheat at rock,
paper, scissors! It's impossible!"
"I don't trust you!"
"Cycke, tell him y' can't cheat at rock, paper,
scissors!"
"Yes, you can! Tell him Cyke!!"
"Dammit, Cyke. Go
faster!!"
"Are we there yet?"
"Oh God, I'm not going to survive this trip. What was I thinking?"
Same time with the girls...
"Oh come on Jubes, what's the big deal?"
"Oh, I don't know. Maybe I don't want to!"
"But he would be so perfect for yah, sugah."
"No way!"
"Did you notice that we are ahead of the boys?" Storm asked
suddenly.
"Hey, that's right!"
"I have an idea," Jean whispered.
One hour later...
"Sooo, are we there yet?" Bobby asked
quickly.
"Grrrrrrrrrrrrr," Cyclops growled.
"Hey! Ain't dat de girls car?"
"Yeah. Looks like they broke down. Should we
help?" Warren asked.
"Of course we should. We all're gentlemen here
aren't we?"
The others agreed with Sam and they pulled the van over behind the girls car. Scott got out and walked up to the girls, who
were still sitting in the car seemingly enjoying the air conditioning.
"Did you guys break down?"
Jean looked up at him from behind her sunglasses. She smiled. "No,"
she said simply and then slammed on the breaks, screeching away and leaving
Cyclops behind joking on the dust.
"CYCLOPS!! GET IN THE VAN!! I'M DRIVING!!"
Wolverine yelled to him. Scott stumbled back and jumped into the passengers seat.
"I don't care how you do it, make sure you beat
those girls!"
Wolverine grinned at him. "Now that's what I like to hear!" They tore
out after the girls in a cloud of dust.

If anyone has anymore ideas or requests I'd be happy
to hear them and find a way to fit them in. Good-bye till the next chapter...:D;D
