Notes: Holy crap, did I ever love "Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl." It was great. And tomorrow I'm going to see "The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen." I'm on the fence about this one. Great comic book (graphic novel), but where did Tom Sawyer come from? Oh well, here's to hoping it's good. Anyhow, on to the important stuff. I lied and said that Marie would be in the chapter that preceded this one, but she wasn't. She's in this one though. And to those people who are still confused as to what "fookie dust" is, I can't really explain it any better than Remy did. Haven't you ever had one of those days/weeks/months/years when it seems like every female or male (depending on your sex or sexuality) is suddenly interested in you? It's happened to me a couple of times, so I know it happens to others. It's just one of those unsolved mysteries. Anyhow, on to the story. . .
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------
Kitty phased back through the door. Or rather, she phased as far through the door as Jean allowed her to go.
"Hey! Kurt! We've got to talk about some things! I think I. . .Kurt? KURT?!?" she said, looking around the room and realizing that Kurt wasn't there. She noticed the open window, and then was savagely pulled back through the door.
Jean fell backwards, then Kitty fell on top of her. The two laid there for a moment, before Jean pushed Kitty up and away from her. Standing up, Jean shot Kitty a dirty look. Kitty returned it.
"What was that all about?" Kitty demanded.
"I told you, you shouldn't play games with his head, or his heart."
"And why do you care?" Kitty asked.
"Because. . .Kurt's my friend!" Jean said.
"You've already got a boyfriend! Why don't you leave Kurt and I alone?"
"There is NO "Kurt and you," Kitty! There's you, and then there's Kurt!"
"You're just jealous!" Kitty said, and with that she walked down the hall towards the stairs.
"Kurt is not your boyfriend!" Jean called after her.
"Yeah, well, we'll see about that." Kitty thought as she walked down the stairs. When she was two stairs from the bottom, she felt an invisible force push her. It was gentle, so she didn't fall, but it was hard enough to make her stumble down the last two steps. When she got to the bottom of the stairs, she looked up and saw Jean standing there with a smirk on her face. Kitty gave her another dirty look, and walked off towards the rec room.
When she got there, she looked around for Kurt, but the only person there was Amara.
"Hey, Amara. Have you seen Kurt?" Kitty asked.
"Oh, yeah! He was here just a couple of seconds ago. But then he teleported away." Amara said.
"He did?" Kitty asked, disappointed.
"Yeah, like he was scared of me or something."
"That's weird, usually its him who scares other people with his teleporting." Kitty joked.
"Oh, I don't think he's scary at all. As a matter of fact, I wouldn't mind if I saw more of him." Amara said, smiling as if she was sharing a secret with Kitty.
Kitty looked at Amara with a combination of disgust and amazement. Was everyone after her man? And besides that, Amara was, like, fourteen years old. She was just a little girl. Kurt needed a woman. A woman who knew how to make him happy. He needed a woman who he had liked for years. He needed a woman named Kitty. Or at least, that's what Kitty believed. And since she was the only Kitty that Kurt had liked for years, she figured that she fit the bill.
"Yeah, well, if you see him, can you tell him I'm looking for him?"
"Why?" Amara asked, suddenly suspicious.
"Because I. . ." Kitty began, and suddenly there was a knock at the door. Kitty turned around and ran towards the foyer, thinking that it may have been Kurt, although she couldn't figure out why he would be knocking. She reached the door and threw it open, with a huge smile on her face. Her smile fell when she saw that it was just Tabby. Tabby shoved past her and walked inside, chewing bubble-gum and smiling.
"Hey, where's Blue?" Tabby asked.
"Why?" Kitty almost growled.
"Oh, I just wanted to see him."
"This is becoming serious." Kitty thought. "Every hussy in the world wants to get her hands on my Elf."
"He's not here, so why don't you go?" Kitty said, pushing her towards the door, rather roughly.
"No, that's okay." Tabby said, pushing past Kitty again, and slipping something into her hand. "I'll just wait here."
And with that, Tabby walked into the rec room, sitting next to Amara. Kitty glowered in her general direction before looking at whatever it was that Tabby had given her. She shrieked suddenly, realizing it was one of Tabby's bombs. Kitty phased outside through the door and threw the bomb onto the lawn, where it exploded, leaving a hole a couple of feet deep.
With that, Kitty walked into the rec room, and slapped Tabby in the face before walking off to her room. If she was going to go looking for Kurt, she wanted to put her shoes on.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------
Kurt walked through the forest, feeling pain in his feet. He cursed his luck for not having eaten a larger breakfast or lunch, if only for the simple reason that his stomach was rumbling. However, because he hadn't eaten enough, and had teleported so much earlier, he could not teleport to the edge of town. So he continued his walk, occasionally stopping to rest.
As he made his way to the edge of the woods, he came upon the park at the edge of town. The park was basically a lake with a walkway around it, a couple of gazebos, and a floating stage. A fountain was in the middle of the lake, and at night colored lights would take their turns changing the fountains color. Kurt looked around and noticed that it was a slow day at the park. He could only make out two people. Taking a closer look, he realized that the two people walking around the lake were Evan and Marie. Kurt smiled and began to run towards them. Then he halted in his tracks. Marie was a female. He stood there, frozen for a moment. Neither Evan nor Marie had noticed him yet, even though he was only about twenty feet in front of them. He dived into the bushes on the side of the walkway as they got closer.
"So, Kitty was flirtin' with 'im, too?" Marie asked.
"Yup. It was weird. Anyhow, I just wanted to warn you incase. . ."
"Incase o' what?" Marie teased. "Incase Ah fall in love with mah little brothah?"
"Vell, it could be a real possibility." They both heard from behind the bush.
"Kurt? Is that you?" Marie asked, stopping and beginning to peek behind the bush.
"No! Don't look at me! I'm flying ze fookie dust!" Kurt yelled.
Evan and Marie looked at each other. Had Kurt gone crazy?
"What?" Evan asked.
"I'm. . .flying. . .ze. . .fookie dust!" Kurt said slowly.
"What in the hell are ya talkin' 'bout?" Marie asked.
"Remy. He told me about fookie dust, and about how I must be flying around in it. Or somezing."
"Oh great. You've been taking relationship advice from Remy?" Evan asked.
"Kurt, get out from there." Marie said.
Kurt stood up slowly. Marie took one look at him, and began to scream.
"Kurt! I need you! I want you! I must have you!" She yelled.
"No! You see, Evan! I knew zis vould. . ." he trailed off, seeing Marie fall to the ground laughing, clutching at her stomach.
"Oh ha ha. Very funny, Rogue." Kurt said, before turning tail and walking away.
"No! Come back, Kurt! I'm sorry!" Marie said, Evan helping to lift her up.
"Nein! You two go laugh at me! I'll go back to ze mansion vhere ze ozzer girls are getting violent!"
"Wait! They're getting violent?" Evan asked, catching up with Kurt. Marie wasn't far behind him.
"Jah! It as nuts! Amanda called, and zen Kitty and Jean vere fighting outside of my room, trying to get inside. And vhen I jumped out of ze vindow to get avay from zem, Tabby vas outside, and kept hurling her little bombs at me to try to knock me off of ze vall and back down to her."
"Holy crap, are you serious?" Evan asked.
"Kurt, you might wanna go talk ta Professor Xavier." Marie said.
"Jah, jah! Zat's fine. I'd love to. But he's back at ze mansion. I'm not going back zhere until after I eat." Kurt said.
"Okay, well, how about we go back and talk to the Professor for you? That way, you can go to town, cool off, get something to eat and then come home to a normal household again." Evan said.
"Jah? You vould do zat for me?" Kurt asked, hopeful.
"Sure. Just go out and have fun or something. Stay away from women you know, though." Evan said.
"Okay. Zank you so much." He said, hugging them. He was sure that this long day would be over soon enough.
Two sets of eyes watched him embrace them both. Both sets of eyes narrowed when he hugged Marie.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -----------
Amanda sat there, looking at the phone. He had just hung up on her! For the second time! She couldn't believe it. Then she suddenly switched emotions again, and thought about how sweet he was. He couldn't possibly have hung up on her purposely. It must have been an accident. And who were those girlish voices she had heard on the other end of the phone? She found herself suddenly hating the fact that Kurt lived in a house full of girls. And was that Kitty's voice she had heard telling Kurt that they needed to talk?
Amanda picked up the phone and dialed Kurt's number again. It rang twice. No answer. It rang six times. Still, no answer. It ran a fifteenth time, and she still, and no one answered. She hung up and got out the phone book. She knew that there had to be a main number for the Xavier Institute somewhere in there. Flipping through, she finally found it, and dialed the number. Kitty Pryde picked it up after two rings.
"Kurt?" Kitty asked, offering no greeting.
"No. This is Kurt's close friend Amanda." Amanda said irritably.
"Oh. What do you want?"
"Well, I'm looking for Kurt."
"Well, Kurt's not here." Kitty said, rather rudely.
"Where is he?" Amanda asked.
"I'm not certain."
"You don't know?"
"Well, let's see. . .hey Jean, is that Lojack thing we have installed in Kurt working yet? What're the readings on the radar?" Kitty called.
"Hey, there's no reason to be sarcastic!" Amanda yelled.
"Hold on, Amanda! The satellite is about to give me a reading!" Kitty said. "Beep! Beep! Boop! Beep! Boop!"
"Oh, shut up Pryde!" Amanda screamed into the phone.
"Don't worry, we're about to let the dogs loose! We've tracked his heading somewhere beyond the fortieth parallel! We're sending a chopper over to your place to pick you up! Pack light!"
"Kitty! Stay away from Kurt!" Amanda yelled into the phone. "I heard you earlier, and you won't get rid of me by being rude, and Kurt likes me!"
"Whatever, Amanda. Stay away from MY Kurt, got that?!?" Kitty said, and hung up the phone.
Kitty looked at the phone, and then was tackled by Tabby.
"Whose Kurt is he?" Tabby asked, pulling a "boom" from her palm and waving it in Kitty's face.
"Oh, why don't you just go chase down Alvers?"
"Because I want Kurt!"
"Makes sense. Are you getting used to my table scraps?" Kitty asked, suddenly turning vicious.
"What was that?!?" Tabby asked.
"Hey, you two! Stop this!" Jean yelled, running into the room.
"Tell her to take it back!" Tabby yelled.
"Tell her to leave Kurt alone!" Kitty yelled right back.
Suddenly the phone rang, and all three were silenced. A shriek came out of the next room, and suddenly there was crying. Tabby jumped off of Kitty, and followed Jean into the next room. Kitty was close on their heels. Amara had just hung up the phone, and she was crying.
"What's wrong, Amara?" Jean asked.
"It's. . .it's. . .it's Kurt!" Amara said.
"Oh my God! Is he okay?" Kitty asked. She was expecting the worst because of Amara's current state. Was Kurt in an accident? Was he okay? Was he, God forbid, dead?
"Kurt. . .was. . .he was. . .he made out with Marie at the park!" Amara shouted, and began to sob again.
"What?!?" Tabby asked, and then turned around and ran out of the house.
"That makes no sense." Jean thought, and then turned around and saw Kitty running towards the garage. Kitty grabbed Scott's car keys off of the key holder on the wall, and ran through the door. Jean stood there for a moment, completely confused (and strangely enough, a little jealous of Marie) when she heard a car start. What Kitty was doing finally dawned on her, and she ran after Kitty.
Jean opened the door to the garage in just enough time to see Kitty punch down the gas and take off down the driveway. She flew through the entrance to the school, and took a left towards town. Jean cursed. Kitty had taken Scott's car. Now all she was left with was. . .the S.U.V. An evil smile spread across her face. Wait a minute, she had thought. That's not the only way I can get there. Jean ran to the edge of the woods before taking to the air. Over the forest, no one would see her flying.
Kitty raced down the road, trying to overtake Tabby. Apparently, Tabby had once again stolen Lance's jeep. Kitty tried to pass on Tabby's left, and so Tabby veered left, blocking Kitty. Kitty tried passing her on the shoulder of the road, but that didn't work either. Tabby was driving like a woman possessed, and she planned on getting to Kurt first.
"Fine, Tabby. Have it your way." Kitty said, smiling. With one hand on the wheel, she placed her other hand on the dashboard. She concentrated as hard as she could, and felt the car go intangible with her. She punched the gas again, and she and Scott's car moved straight through Tabby in Lance's jeep. Tabby actually tried hitting Kitty as she went by, her hand swiping through Kitty's smiling face.
"Sorry, Tabby! Just passing through!" Kitty said, as she took off. Tabby knew that there was no way she could catch up to the sports car in Lance's piece of crap jeep. So she turned and went off road, trying to beat Kitty to the next pass.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------
Amanda had been hung up on! Again! And that time, it HAD been on purpose! That bitch! Amanda jumped off of her bed and grabbed her keys. She didn't live that far from the Institute, and she wanted to set Kitty straight on a few things. One, no one hangs up on Amanda Sefton! And two, Kurt was hers!
Amanda grabbed her keys and ran out to her car. She took off at speeds she didn't usually drive at, and left the downtown area towards the Xavier Institute. She couldn't wait to see Kitty's face when she told her off. More than that, she couldn't wait to see Kitty's face when she saw Kurt dating her. Or any other girl for that matter. Kurt was hers. And she would show everyone.
Just as she was smiling at the thought of making out with Kurt, and Kitty seeing it, another car raced past her. It was Kitty Pryde! She threw Amanda a dirty look and kept driving. Amanda shrieked, and pulled to the side of the road. Now the bitch had almost killed her, she thought. She turned the car around, and followed Kitty back towards town.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------
Kurt sat down at the bookstore. He sighed the sigh of a content man. He sipped from his coffee, took a bite of his pumpkin scone, and sat down in the most comfortable chair that he could find. He had eaten a rather large lunch for himself, and now he couldn't think of a better way to cap it off than to eat something sweet and drink a white mocha. He'd relax now. He opened up a book about pirates, and began to read. Normally, he'd be bouncing off of the walls on a weekend afternoon. But this morning had been enough to tire him. Now he felt nice in the cool book store, and couldn't wait for a couple of hours of rest and relaxation.
Three blocks down the street, Scott's car turned the corner. It was closely followed by two others.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------
I know that Kurt may seem a little OOC in that last paragraph up there, but that's totally what I'd do in his case. Just calm down. Besides, he is reading about pirates. That's totally Kurt. Right? I hope so. Anyhow, I have a question for everyone. What is a "Mary-Sue?" I've seen people talk about them on FF.net, but no one's explained what they are. I gather that they're bad. If so, I hope none of my character's are Mary-Sue's. Anyhow, I'm going to Starbucks.
Later.
Notes: Holy crap, did I ever love "Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl." It was great. And tomorrow I'm going to see "The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen." I'm on the fence about this one. Great comic book (graphic novel), but where did Tom Sawyer come from? Oh well, here's to hoping it's good. Anyhow, on to the important stuff. I lied and said that Marie would be in the chapter that preceded this one, but she wasn't. She's in this one though. And to those people who are still confused as to what "fookie dust" is, I can't really explain it any better than Remy did. Haven't you ever had one of those days/weeks/months/years when it seems like every female or male (depending on your sex or sexuality) is suddenly interested in you? It's happened to me a couple of times, so I know it happens to others. It's just one of those unsolved mysteries. Anyhow, on to the story. . .

And she would show everyone.
Just as she was smiling at the thought of making out with Kurt, and Kitty seeing it, another car raced past her. It was Kitty Pryde! She threw Amanda a dirty look and kept driving. Amanda shrieked, and pulled to the side of the road. Now the bitch had almost killed her, she thought. She turned the car around, and followed Kitty back towards town.

Kurt sat down at the bookstore. He sighed the sigh of a content man. He sipped from his coffee, took a bite of his pumpkin scone, and sat down in the most comfortable chair that he could find. He had eaten a rather large lunch for himself, and now he couldn't think of a better way to cap it off than to eat something sweet and drink a white mocha. He'd relax now. He opened up a book about pirates, and began to read. Normally, he'd be bouncing off of the walls on a weekend afternoon. But this morning had been enough to tire him. Now he felt nice in the cool book store, and couldn't wait for a couple of hours of rest and relaxation.
Three blocks down the street, Scott's car turned the corner. It was closely followed by two others.

I know that Kurt may seem a little OOC in that last paragraph up there, but that's totally what I'd do in his case. Just calm down. Besides, he is reading about pirates. That's totally Kurt. Right? I hope so. Anyhow, I have a question for everyone. What is a "Mary-Sue?" I've seen people talk about them on FF.net, but no one's explained what they are. I gather that they're bad. If so, I hope none of my character's are Mary-Sue's. Anyhow, I'm going to Starbucks.
Later.
