LATER!!!

"Gimme my lighter!!!" St. John whined like a little baby as he chased after Scott.  The two teams were getting off the plane after landing in Spain.

"Bienvinedos a España!" said some crazy Spanish people.

"Don't worry guys, I am fluent in many languages!" said Kurt.

"Spanish being one of them?" asked Scott.

"No!" Kurt said.

"I take Spanish in school!" said Evan.  "HO-la!  Mi llamo es Juan!  Y tu?"

"Oh!" said the Spanish men.  "Hola Juan!  (insert long paragraph composed entirely in Spanish)"

"Um…" said Evan slowly.

"What did he say?" asked Lance.

"Uh…Bueno!" said Evan, giving the Spanish people the thumbs up.  "Donde esta Maria?"

"Maria esta en la biblioteca!" the Spanish people answered at the exact same time.

"Come on…" said Evan.

"What?" asked everyone else.

"Evan, you should ask them where the checkpoint is." Said Todd.

"Oh…of course…" said Evan.  "Um…donde esta el…checkpointo?"

"No way!" said St. John.  "Checkpoint is 'checkpointo' in Spanish?!  That's nuts!  I can't believe that?"

"Que es el checkpointo?" asked the Spanish men.

"He said to ask someone who speaks English." Said Evan.

"OKAY!!" said all the people who weren't Spanish.

MEANWHILE!!!

"Sí, sí, gracias muchachos." Said Pietro as he turned away from a group of old Spanish people.

"Wow, Pietro, I thought it was only your name that was Spanish!" said Jean.

"Thanks but it's Italian." Said Pietro.  "But I've been taking Spanish since the fourth grade and Evan's only been taking it since last year." Pietro sighed pompously.  "It just goes to show that anything he can do, I can do better."

"So, did they say where the checkpoint is?" asked Rogue.

"No." said Pietro.  "They had no idea what I was talking about.  And I doubt anyone will."

"Are we just supposed to wander aimlessly all around Spain until we find this checkpoint?" Rogue said in an annoyed tone.

"We could look at this map." Said Remy, pulling out the map that Professor X had given all of them.  "It has a big X where the checkpoint should be and there's even directions on how to get there."

"Fine, I'll go there now!" said Pietro.

"No, we all have to go together!!" said Jean.

"I'll go and wait for you there!" Pietro said in a whiney voice.

"No you won't!" said Jean.  "We're a team!  We're the Green Team!  Besides we're winning!"

All of a sudden, Kurt came out of nowhere and looked around.

"This isn't the checkpoint!" he said with an exasperated sigh as he pulled out his map.

"See?" Pietro said.  "THEY'RE cheating!"

"What?" Kurt said nervously.  "This isn't the bathroom?"  Then he teleported away.

"Besides, me running to the checkpoint isn't cheating!" Pietro continued.  "We're ALLOWED to use our powers!"

"Not on this team!" Jean declared.

"Hey, muchachos," came a voice from the shadows.  They turned around to see a scary shadowy man in the corner.  "You say you looking for a checkpoint?"

"How did you know?" asked Rogue.

"You were practically screaming it." The creepy man answered.  "Not to mention the fact that I'm a clue on how to get there.  If you can answer my riddle then I will give you a hint."

"All right." Said the green team.

"Here's your riddle," said the creepy man.  "HOW do you make a boogie dance?!" he said dramatically.  Then he paused.  "I mean!  How do you make a tissue dance?!  Oh man, I messed that up completely." Then the creepy man took off his trench coat to reveal that he was actually Bobby AKA Iceman!!  ARGH!!!

"What are you doing here?!" asked Jean.

"I'm the clue!" Bobby answered.  At that exact moment, both the Blue Team and the Red Team were walking by and they heard that and ran over as well.  "Okay, the first checkpoint is over there on that mountain!!" said Bobby, dramatically pointing at a mountain that was off in the distance of the little town.

"All right, all alliances are diminished!" said Scott.

"What?!" said Kitty angrily.  "We swore on it!"

"Here," said Scott, tossing the lighter to St. John.  "I think it's about our turn to cheat."

"YEAH!" said St. John excitedly.  "HA HA!!"  Then lit it and formed a wall of fire around the other teams.

"We better go before Kurt remembers that he can teleport!" said Todd as he started foolishly jumping away at super slow speed.  The other three shrugged and joined him and they all sprinted as fast as they could towards the mountain until they realized that it was way too far away to just run too, especially at the pace they were currently going at, so they stopped a taxi.

"Adónde ustedes van?" asked the taxi man.

"What?" asked the incompetent Red Team.

"Adónde ustedes van?" repeated the crazy Spanish taxi driver.

"Um…can you take us to that mountain?" asked Scott, getting in.

"A la montaña?" asked the taxi driver.

"Uh…Sí!!" said Scott as he gestured for everyone else to get in.  They all squeezed in the back and the taxi driver man started driving a la montaña.  After about fifteen minutes of driving, they arrived at the foot of the mountain since the driver was a really fast driver.

"Ése será cincuenta dólares americanos." Said the taxi driving man.

"Um…" said the Red Team.  Then Wanda decided that she was fed up with his inability to speak English so she used one of her magical projectile powers and shot him into orbit.

"That works too." Said St. John.

They all turned around to see that both the Green Team AND The Blue Team were already there looking as though they had been there for a long time.

"How did you get here so fast?!" demanded Todd.

"We decided that your cheating was dirty so we all teleported here." Said no one in particular.

"Except for Jean." Said Rogue.  "She insisted on not using any powers."

"And me." Said Pietro.  "I ran.  But only because it's fun."

Then they all turned around to see someone standing there with a cloak on.

"Welcome to the First Checkpoint," said the cloaked man.  Then he flung the cloak off to reveal that he was…FORGE!!!  He was Hip Forge, meaning that he was the cool one in the future and not that crazy seventies Forge when you first meet him.  He was that one in the dance episode.

"Are you the person at the checkpoint that the professor told us about?" asked Kitty.

"Why else would I be in Spain?" asked Forge.  "All right, this is the challenge.  All teams must take different paths up the mountain.  Each path has been personalized for each team.  When you come to each challenge on the mountain, there will be a sign explaining the rules to complete that particular challenge to continue going on the path.  If you come to a sign that is not the color of your team then you have gone the wrong way.  If anyone cheats and does not follow the rules then you will have to come back and start all over again.  I will know if you cheat because I have set up hidden cameras everywhere because I am Forge and you guys took a really long time to get here so I had lots of free time so…there are a LOT of cameras."

"I have one question." Said Pietro.  "What's the point of racing to get here if you just had us start at the same time?"

"That's YOUR fault for all showing up at the same time!" Forge answered.  "En sus marcas... consiga el sistema... VAN!!"
