Chapter 5 - The laughter ends

Piotr was happy. Piotr had managed to avoid any and all contact with the more....insane residents of the Xavier mansion for quite some time....but you know what they say about too much of a good thing...
"HI!!".
Piotr jumped a few feet in the air as something shouted in his ear suddenly, an action that was quite tough for someone of his stature, and thus resulted in him falling on the floor. He turned his head slowly to see Kurt grinning at him.
"Err....hello", said Piotr, getting to his feet and glancing around in case this was an attack.
"Piotr, my good friend", said Kurt, grinning, "as seen as you vere so helpfull in carrying the boxes of weedol into the house, i vanted to give you a position of general in my fight against ze killer Audrey. Vill you fight?!".
Piotr blinked twice.
"You are a very odd little ...thing", he said, "you worry me".
Kurt rolled his eyes, his tail swishing.
"Awwww you don't mean that", he said, "plllleeeaaaase, i really, REALLY need your help. You vould be an excelent addition to my team. Someone so strong and vell trained like you...".
"...Or you are just needing someone to carry the heavy stuff around", said Piotr flatly, crossing his arms.
"...Ja...that too", said Kurt, "come on, you and me, ve are very much alike!".
Piotr paused at that thought....was he blue? No. Did he have a tail? No. Did he teleport randomly around, scaring the heck out of people? No.
"How are we alike?", he finally asked.
Kurt obviously hadn't seen this question coming, he cleared his throat.
"Vell.....ve're both mutants....ve're both..um..foreign", he said, thinking hard, "....ve both have...eerrrr....feet?".
Piotr sighed, shaking his head at Kurt.
"I am feeling very sorry for you, you strange little thing you", he said, before starting to walk off.
*BAMF*
Kurt appeared in front of him.
"PLEASE!", said Kurt, "just help me kill this one plant. PRETTY please?".
Piotr raised an eyebrow before giving a defeated sigh.
"Then will you be leaving me alone?".
"Ja, ja", said Kurt, "you von't hear a sound from me! Danke! Eet's in Storm's attic all ve have to...".
Piotr held up a hand, silencing him.
"Storm's attic?".
"Ja", replied Kurt, cocking his head to the side, "you afraid of heights or something?".
"No", said Piotr, "i am being afraid of having lightning bolts shot at me while i am in metal form. Metal CONDUCTS electricity, you know".
"Vell....just don't be in metal form vhen you're near her", tried Kurt.
"She will remember", said Piotr darkly, "she will be waiting. I know that a woman scorned.....".
He stepped away from Kurt, then walked off, not wanting to have ANYTHING to do with this plot so he could claim complete inocence when Ororo saw whatever Kurt was planning to do to her garden. Kurt sighed sadly, well, he'd just have to find someone else.

"I don't think we should be here".
Jamie glanced nervously around from where he and Pyro were stood outside of the Brotherhood Boarding house.
"Oh, don't worry, i'm tight with these guys", said Pyro, knocking on the door, it being answered by Lance a few seconds later, "hey there brovah!".
Lance blinked a few times.
"Pietro, the fire-starting freak is here again", he shouted into the house, "you want me to set the hose pipe on him again?".
Pyro laughed, slapping Lance on the shoulder.
"Heh heh heh", said Pyro, "don't you just LOVE this guy?!".
"Don't touch me".
"Hey, is Toad around?", asked Pyro, "me and my comerade here have a proposition for him".
Lance arched an eyebrow at Jamie, then put his head into the house.
"TOAD!", he shouted, "that manic Austrailian wants to speak to you".
Todd appeared by the door a few minutes later, Lance taking the opportunity to escape inside.
"Toad, my brovah!", said Pyro, holding his hand in the air for a high five.
Todd stared at Pyro's hand and blinked, not returning the gesture.
"What do you want?".
Pyro looked a little dejected, putting his hand down.
"Me and Jamie have a proposition for you", he said.
He and Jamie proceeded to excitedly tell Todd about YAMS. After they were done, Todd arched an eyebrow.
"Ya want me to join a group because i'm the youngest?".
"Yeah!", said Jamie, jumping up and down, "i mean, you're an abused younger member, we KNOW you are!".
Todd considered this, before pulling a face, shaking his head.
"Sorry, that'd cut inta my 'Wanda time'", he said, "if i joined, i wouldn't have time to flirt with her and tell her how much i...".
"He'll join!", shouted Wanda, suddenly pushing to the door, "sign him up, NOW".
"But Cuddlebumps...", said Todd, "will you be okay?...i mean, i won't have the time to pamper you"
"I'll survive!", said Wanda, "go, go now, join right now".
Before Todd could argue anymore, Wanda pushed him out of the house, slamming the door behind him.

Stuart couldn't belive his luck. Twice to the same house in ONE DAY?!! Someone musn't like him up there. He sighed, hopping out of his van, on the lookout for anyone shooting at trees...or big huge Russian guys. Nothing. He knocked on the door to have a blonde girl answer it.
"Hi", said Stewart, looking at his clipboard, "this is a package for a Mr Roberto DaCosta?".
"Cool, i'll give it to him!", said Tabby, snatching the box away, then smiling at him flirtatiously, "you wan't me to..sign something?".
Stuart gulped, thrusting the clipboard at her. Tabby signed it, handing back the clipboard then running a finger down his chest.
"I never could resist a guy in uniform".
"I have to go now!", said Stuart, backing up quickly, tripping over a ceramic duck......what the Hell?
"Oh, but don't you want to stay?", said Tabby, "i can treat your wounds".
"Nonononononononono", said Stuart, shaking his head violently and leaping itno his van, tearing away.
Tabby watched him go, shrugged and walked inside.
"Robbie, there's a package for you", she said, depositing it on the table.
Roberto walked over, arching an eyebrow before realising it was from Brazil and tore into it. He blinked in suprise, seeing a wrapped parcel with a bow on it. He picked up the card with it and read it out loud.
"To Mildred Happy Birthday, Lots of Love, Nanna".
Tabby managed to keep a straight face for all of five seconds before falling into a laughing heap on the floor.
"MILDRED?!!!".
"She's OLD okay?", said Roberto, "she lives in a nursing home, she forgets things....like my birthday...and my name...and my gender".
He sighed, opening the package to reveal a game box. Dragon Trybe was scrawled over it in gothic writing.
"Oh boy", said Tabby, finally composing herself, "that's that really geeky game...kinda like Dungons and Dragons. There's a club for it in school".
"I know, it's where all the geeks hang out", said Roberto, tossing the box aside, "i hate my family".

Jamie smiled happily as he walked into his room, YAMS had gained another member and the sea monkeys were thriving. He stopped dead when he saw Scott looking at the sea monkeys....oh no.
"Mmmmmmm", said Scott, picking up the tank and looking at it, tilting it to the left, then to the right.
"Be carefull with that", said Jamie from the door.
"I will, calm down", said Scott, "i wonder what they do when you tilt it upside down?"
"NO!", shouted Jamie, but it was too late.
Scott turned to tank upside down, to his shock, the lid wasn't on all that tight, and the thing fell off, tipping the water, along with it's microscopic inhabitants, onto the floor, where it all soaked into the carpet.
"Ooops", said Scott, looking sheepish, "sorry Jamie".
Jamie stared at Scott for a long time, before he clapped his hands together, resulting in a pack of 12 Jamie's. They shook their fists in front of them, and started to march towards Scott. Scott whimper, Jamie was mad, Jamie was going to hurt him.....It couldn't get any worse than this...then they started to chant.
"Doom on you, doom on you", chanted the clones in perfect unison, marching towards Scott.
He whimpered and backed up against the wall as the army of Jamies advanced on him.
"Doom on you, doom on you, doom on you, doom on you".
Jean blinked as she heard a scream of terror echo through the house. Inside, she desperately wanted to go and save the guy she loved.....but her will to keep her own life was that little bit stronger. So instead, she put her headphones on and carried on sculpting with her clay, humming 'Unchained Melody' as she did so.

Another chappy down and done! The fate of Jamie's Sea Monkeys is exactly the fate of what happened to a batch of mine, my friends brother was an idiot....god rest their tiny little souls. Anyway, do review,. Until next time...
