The Mini Mutant Mob

"It will be good to get back to the mansion," Xavier told Ororo as she drove the car back that night.

"Yes," Ororo nodded. "Hopefully things went well at home. Wait a minute, isn't that Jean's SUV?"

The vehicle in question was swerving wildly down the street, nearly crashing into several cars. As it drove by the limo both Ororo and Xavier could see a small familiar looking brown haired boy driving it. Another carbon copy of the boy stuck his head out the window and made faces as they drove away.

"I did not see that," Xavier moaned. "I did not see that! Please tell me I did not see that!"

"If you mean you didn't see those children stealing Jean's van I'm afraid you did," Ororo said. "Who were they? They looked familiar."

"They should," Xavier sighed. "I got a brief glimpse of their minds. Remember the Avalanche clones back in Mojoworld?"

"You mean…?" Ororo's jaw dropped.

"Yes, somehow they managed to get to our universe," Xavier put his head in his hand. "And I think they have Kitty on board."

"Oh no…" Ororo moaned. "Look!" She pointed and flagged down the X-Van.

"Storm! Professor!" Scott and the others appeared in full costume. "This is gonna sound strange but did you see…?"

"Jean's SUV with several immature Avalanche clones in it?" Xavier finished the question.

"You know huh?" Scott groaned.

There was a rumbling not that far away. "I believe so," Xavier sighed. "Storm, see if you can fly ahead. Gambit and Rogue come with me. The rest of you go ahead in the van."

Gambit took control of the car and started to drive. They told him about Kitty and the Avalanche clones. "And then they swiped Jean's van and high tailed it outta there!" Remy finished. "They're crazy! Kept saying that Kitty was their queen."

"In a way she is," Xavier sighed. "Apparently these clones' mindset is based on the real Avalanche's most basic desires and instincts. Naturally they would fixate on Kitty."

"Not to mention their appetite for destruction," Scott said. He spoke on the two-way radio in the X-Van.

"There's graffiti everywhere!" Kurt pointed to the streets and the buildings. There were red squiggles and several slogans written in tiny letters. MUTANTS ROCK! MUTANTS RULE! DOWN WITH THE X-GEEKS! ALL HAIL QUEEN KITTY! AVALANCHE ROCKS!

"Oh yeah this will really win the public over to our side," Rogue grumbled. "Oh my god! Look!"

Both car and van stopped and looked at the destruction of a familiar building. One side of the walls had crumbled. "It's Bayville High!" Bobby pointed. "What's left of it."

"He did it again," Scott groaned. "Just what is it with Lance and wrecking schools?"

"Lance Alvers always did have a troubled mind," Xavier sighed. "Naturally his clones would retain the hostility he has towards school."

"How much you wanna bet we get blamed for this again?" Rogue grumbled.

"We have to find them before they really do some damage and hurt someone!" Jean remarked. "Good thing this was the weekend and there's no one around that I can sense!"

Ororo flew down. "I found them," She remarked. "Follow me. They're heading down Lakeshore Road."

"Lakeshore Road?" Jean remarked as they drove there. "I know where that is that's…oh no!"

"Hey isn't that…." Scott looked up the road. "Duncan's house?"

"Yeah… and it looks like he's having a party," Kurt said.

"Oh no…" Jean moaned.

"You don't think…?" Kurt asked.

"I know," Jean frowned. "A few of them are in there already. I can sense them."

"Why am I not surprised?" Scott moaned. "It would be just like Alvers to crash a party. Wait, you said a few of them. Where are the rest?"

"I'm sensing that they're scattered but it's hard to pinpoint their minds," Xavier said. "Their thought patters are more erratic than the real Avalanche's. We need to spilt up. Storm and Rogue, you take to the air and search. Cyclops take Jean, Iceman and Gambit up to Duncan's house. Try to keep a low profile."

"Oh yeah right," Scott groaned. "We'll blend."

"The rest of the team will search the surrounding areas," Xavier remarked. "We have to find them."

Suddenly a tremor shook from the inside of Duncan's house. "Something tells me finding them won't be that big a problem," Scott muttered.

As they left however they did not notice that they were being watched. "Comrades I believe we have found what we were looking for," A whispered voice spoke.

So now who's watching these guys? And what will happen next? Stay tuned!
