The News

Pietro ran from Wanda at light speed. As he ran he muttered to himself "C'Mon Scotty, warp factor 10, and make the engines hold!" She was mad. Mainly because he had told Todd about the Jello incident when they were three. But it WAS her own fault! She should have known she was to young to cook! And the jello was about as out of contole as she was! He quickly turned a corner to see that McCoy freak posting something on a wall. Sign-up lists for a play, huh? He quickly signed the names of the entire brotherhood, not bothering to see what the play was first. He was way too busy running.

Next to come upon the list was Jean. She signed up, with as much false hope in her eyes as she could muster. Scott came up next, signing up as well (only after he saw Jean's name on the list), then Kurt and Kitty, and eventually, the whole team had signed up, including Rogue, which surprised everyone so much, Kitty was still chattering about it over lunch at McDonalds. Little did she know, she was being listened to by a certain cajun.

Gambit went to sign up, "who knows it could be fun" running through his mind. Pyro followed him out, and they both signed up. Pyro smiled. He hadn't signed up for the play itself, he had signed up for special effects. "This should prove most intresting" was more along the lines of what he was thinking.

Toad was watching TV, Freddy was Eating (A/N: Of course) and Lance was listening to his CDs when Pietro walked in followed by Wanda. "Sweetums!" Toad exclaimed, jumping up. Wanda looked at him in disgust and Pietro laughed. "Pietro, what the heck are you laughing about?" Lance asked him, as now he was rolling on the floor in a fit of giggles. "Wanda, what kind of sugar was it this time?" He asked her, like that was the obvious answer.

Pietro stopped laughing, got up and smiled. "We've beened signed up to audition for a play!" He giggled, and grinned. Everyone looked at him. Wanda suddenly asked "What's the play,dear brother?" In an evil tone. And he stopped laughing. "Romeo and Juliet." He muttered and everyone looked at him. Pietro gulped and ran for his life.

The next day everyone went back to the site of the audition lists to see when and where the auditions would be as it said to do on the list. Beast, Jamie and Rahne came out onto the porch. Beast spoke to break the tension in the crowd.

"As you know, once you're on the audition list, you can't get off it, you've made a commitment" At this the Brotherhood Groan. "And so, since a few did not want to make that commitment, I made them backstage helpers. Meet the assistant stage managers, Jamie and Rahne." They walked to the front of the porch and smiled, and waved then Jamie backed up and Rahne took the speech. "And there are also other things that need done backstage like special effects." She picks up the list. "Forge and John are in charge of special effects. Jamie, you're turn." She said turning around and letting him take the speech. "Now for the information, we're going to hold the auditions here tomorrow at noon and--" He was cut off by a crashing sound.

Down in the audiance, Rogue had been standing right where the statue had fallen, and if it weren't for Gambit pushing her out of the way, she would have been killed. She didn't move, nor did anyone else, they just stood there, in shock of the disaster that had just been avoided.
