Chapter 6: Problem at Prom
As soon as Cyrus and Rose heard the scream come from outside, they hurried on out the front door and stood on the front porch, only to see Angelo pinned on the ground by another BrotherHood mutant, by the name of Sabertooth. Rose looked at Cyrus, "Cy, it's him!" Cyrus looked at Jubilee, who is only a few feet away from Angelo and Sabertooth, then looks back at Rose.
"Rose, go get Logan! Now!" He said.
Rose gulped, nodded her head and ran inside to find Logan.
Cyrus then flies straight towards Sabertooth to hit him, but Sabertooth sees him, jumps off Angelo, leaving him a bloody mess on the ground, and caught Cyrus in mid-air. Sabertooth lands on him, and punches his face. Logan then runs out the mansion and jumps towards Sabertooth. Logan brings out his claws and stabs Sabertooth in the chest and they roll away from Cyrus and Angelo. While Sabertooth is distracted, Rose runs to Angelo and Cyrus to try and heal them. 'C'mon, guys, don't fail on us' she thought, waiting for them to stand up. Jubilee kneels down next to Rose. "What was that thing?" she asked.
Rose looked at her. "It's a long story, could you help me get these two in the mansion?"
"Yeah, of course." Jubilee replied.
Rose and Jubilee bring Angelo and Cyrus in the mansion and lay them on the couches in the living room. Rose looks at the open door to see how Logan is doing. Bobby runs into the living room, sees Angelo and Cyrus on the couch, and then starts to talk to Rose. "What the heck is happening??" He asked.
"It's Sabertooth!" Rose exclaimed.
Bobby looked out the open door and sees him. Bobby's jaw drops when he sees what is happening; and that is Logan getting thrown around like an old rag doll.
"Logan, let this be ANOTHER lesson to your stupid X-Men." Sabertooth said while holding up Logan by his throat. Logan couldn't say anything, he was a few feet from the ground, he was just trying to breathe. Sabertooth sees Bobby running towards them, so he drops Logan and leaves. Bobby runs to Logan.
"Logan, are you OK?" He asked. Logan said nothing and tried to stand. "Look, kid, I'm fine, just worry 'bout the others."

Later that day, after everyone knew what happened, they just got down telling Jubilee that they are all mutants. Jubilee is with Angelo, at the front gates by the entrance.
"Hey, thanks for inviting me over, Ange. And sorry about what happened with that other mutant." Jubilee said. "You sure you're gonna be alright?"
He smiled. "Of course I will be alright." He paused and looked at her, deeply into her eyes. "Jubes…" he started then cut off.
She just stared at him. "What is it? What'd I do?"
"Nothing, the question is what didn't you do?" He said. "OK, I'm just going to come out with it; I like you, Jubes." He looked at her, thinking 'I don't believe I just said that.'
She looked at him, and then smiled. "I knew you did, sweety. And I like you too." She said and then kissed him. She then started to walk home; she stopped and looked back at him, "call me tomorrow."
He looked at her walk away, until he couldn't see her anymore. He smiled and thought 'she kissed me, she actually kissed me.'

The day is finally here; prom is here. Bobby is waiting in the living room for Rogue. He paces back and forth. He hears a sound coming down the stairs. He walks over to the stairs and looks up, only to see Rogue. He thought 'Oh my God! Look at her, she is so beautiful, how can I get any luckier?'
She looked at him and smiled. "What do yah think, sugar?" She asked.
"What do I think? I think you look great, Rogue." He said and then held out his hand to help her down the steps. "We better hurry, Rogue. Everyone else is down at the school at the dance.
**
Bobby and Rogue arrive at the school and walk inside. They find the rest of their friends and sit with them at a table. Cyrus pouted. "Do they always have to play rap at all the dances? I mean this is prom, not like homecoming or anything…"
Rose looked at Cyrus. "Oh, hush, let the DJ do the job that he's paid for."
Scott laughed and looked off to the side, but what he sees is Jean. "It's her… she's here…"
"Who's here?" Cyrus asked and then turned around to see Jean. "Isn't she the one who attacked us?"
"Yeah… yeah she is." Bobby said.
Later on that night Scott is getting punch for Kitty, but then Bobby walks up to the punch bowl. Scott looks at Bobby.
"OK, Bob, if you're mad at me just come out and say it!" He said.
"OK, want me to come out with it? Fine, I will. I'm mad at you, Scottie." Bobby said while pouring punch in a cup.
"Why are you mad at me? I just said how I felt towards someone of the opposite sex as me, no biggie." Scott said.
"Yeah, well it still made me a little upset." He said then walked away, only to return to the table.
**
While prom is taking place, Logan does some searching of his own; and that is to find the BrotherHood.
"Logan," the Professor said in Logan's mind. "Find any of them yet?"
"Nope, sorry Chuck. No such luck yet." Logan said while looking near the high school. Logan then got a scent of a BrotherHood member. He looked at the high school and then sighed.
**
The DJ announces that the last song is being played at prom, and it's a slow one. After the song ends most people had already exited the school. Then Logan came into where the rest of the X-Men are. He sees Jean and runs towards her. He jumps towards her but she stopped him with her powers. She tosses Logan into the wall headfirst and Logan falls. The X-Men notice and they go over to Logan. Bobby stands facing Jean, ready to attack her. "OK, witch, I had up to HERE with you!" Bobby put his arms out, ready to freeze her. Scott slaps Bobby's arm so it's not facing Jean. Bobby just looked at Scott.
"What do you think you're doing, Scottie?" Bobby asked, with anger in his voice.
"Don't hurt her, please don't." Scott said.
"'Don't hurt her'?? This is the chick that took out two of us last time we met. If I have the chance I'm taking her down!" Bobby yelled.
Just then a hole burst in the ceiling, and Magneto comes flying down and stands infront of Jean and looks at the X-Men.
"You fools. You still think you have a chance at defeating the BrotherHood? Ha! I highly doubt that." Magneto said.
While Magneto was talking, distracting the X-Men, Toad was climbing on the wall. Toad sees Scott and whips out his tongue and takes his glasses away and Scott blows a huge hole in the ceiling. He quickly shuts his eyes and Jean picks him up, turns him around to face the others. Magneto only smiled at this.
"Don't try anything on us. If you try, Jean could easily make him open his eyes and blast all you so you will die…" Magneto said with a smile.
The X-Men hated this, being there but not being able to do anything to help anyone.
Bobby looked at Magneto and smiled.
"Why, what are you smiling at, boy?" he asked.
"This!" Bobby said and then covered Scott's eyes with ice, so that Scott can't open them anyway. Angelo then stretched his arm towards Toad, grabbed his ankle and whipped him on the wall. Logan starts to run towards Scott's glasses, but then suddenly stopped.
"That's not all metal in you body, now is it, Logan?" Magneto laughed and then lifted him through the ceiling and making him land outside on the ground. Angelo goes for the glasses, but is pushed back into a wall by Jean. Bobby covers Jean in ice, so she not able to move. Cyrus starts shooting blasts at Magneto, but he easily blocks them. Rogue runs over, grabs his glasses and hands Scott them. Scott quickly puts them on and looks at Jean. Bobby runs and shoulders Jean and she falls on the ground. Magneto leaves and tells Jean to get out of there. Bobby points his arm at her face, ready to cover her breathing holes with ice, but Bobby gets hit with a blast lightly. Jean gets up and flies away. Bobby looked up, seeing that she got away, then he looked at Scott.
"Scott, what are you thinking?!" Bobby yelled.
"I said not to hurt her." Scott said.
"Who on earth died and left you in charge? I'll tell you; no one!" Bobby and Scott went in each other's faces.
Cyrus goes between the two and splits them up. "Hey, both of you, calm down, at least till we get back to the mansion, OK?"
The whole team leaves to check on Logan outside. Rose and Cyrus are standing in the high school, where prom took place, and she looked at him.
"That was pretty brave of you step in the middle of those two." She commented.
He smiled. "Thanks, Rosie." He looked at her, and pulled her closer to him. "But I forgot something at prom…" He said and then kissed her. At first her eyes were widened, but then kissed him back, closed her eyes and felt those fireworks go off in their heads. They stop kissing and she looks at him.
"Wow… I was wondering when you were going to do that, Cy." She said.
Just then Rogue runs back to Cyrus and Rose. "Hey, you two, we have a major problem outside!" They all went outside, to where Logan fell. The only thing there was an imprint of his body and bits of metal surrounding it.
