"MILITARY SCHOOL?" Marie shrieked as she sat in the danger room with Logan and Rita. "How could you agree mom?"

"Now Marie, we haven't decided yet, but Logan and myself believe that military school would be good for you, at least until the mansion is fixed. That shouldn't be more then a few months." Rita calmly told Marie.

"Dad?" Marie turned to look at Logan.

"Your mother's right, we haven't decided yet, it's just a possibility, and maybe a month or so there will teach you something about breaking your curfew." Logan's face was set in stone, there was no use in arguing.

"This is so not fair." Marie mumbled as she got up and walked towards the elevator.

"Oh it's very fair Marie." Logan shouted after her.

"Ugh!" Marie yelled in return as she went up to ground level and saw Tyler, Remy, and Rogue talking.

~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~

"Come on mom! This isn't fair, it's murder!" Tyler crossed his arms over this chest.

"Logan has already agreed to train with you for an hour each day for the next month as punishment for running away." Rogue told Tyler as she walked back towards the mansion, seeing Marie there.

"I wasn't running away mother!" Tyler yelled after her.

"Don't mind your mother Tyler, I'll try to work on her about your punishment, maybe I can get her to lessen it to an hour every weekend for the next month." Remy smiled to Tyler and walked after Rogue as Marie stopped in front of Tyler.

"What did you get?" Marie leaned against one of the trees nearby and watched Tyler.

"An hour every day training with Logan for a month, but dad's trying to lessen it to an hour every weekend for the next month." Tyler leaned against the tree next to the one Marie was leaning against.

"I hate you Tyler."

"Why? What did you get?" Tyler picked a leaf off the tree and charged it up for no reason, then let it cool down.

"They wanna send me to military school." Marie sighed, looking down.

"What? How can they do that? What did Shawn say?" Tyler was shocked, he didn't think that Logan and Rita would actually send her away.

"I haven't told Shawn yet, I'm kinda scared of what he'll say." Marie looked at the tree and ran her nail along the bark, leaving a deep gash in the tree.

"Tell me what?" Shawn walked up to Tyler and Marie.

"That mom and dad want me to go to military school until the mansion is fixed." Marie hated the look that Shawn gave her, he looked so sad.

"Dam, I never thought they would do something like that, good thing they never found out about the party you took Lynx and Tyler to." Shawn picked up a pile of leaves and lit them on fire

"And they wont ever find out, cause no one here is going to tell them, right?" Marie glared at Shawn and Tyler.

"Well, did you get pregnant?" Shawn watched the leave disappear into ashes and fly out of his hands from the wind.

"No."

"Then you don't have to worry." Shawn smiled to his sister as she smiled back.

"Thanks Shawn, Tyler. You guys are the best." Marie hugged Shawn then turned and hugged Tyler.

"You are a genius my dear, a pure genius." Magneto said to Lynx as the Brotherhood relished in the fact that the plan worked.

"I know I am Erik, I know." Lynx smiled as Piotr walked into the room.

"Come on Lynx, lets go." Piotr smiled as Lynx stood up and followed him to Magneto's orbs, they were going down to earth to have some fun together.

"See ya Erik, Raven, St. John, dad." Lynx waved goodbye to the Brotherhood members and left the base with Piotr.

~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~

Lynx and Piotr stepped out of the orbs and looked around Westchester, they felt like causing a little trouble. "Come on Piotr, lets go find something fun to do." Lynx started walking towards down town Westchester, Piotr at her side.

Somehow Lynx and Piotr ended up at Josh Matthews's house, the teenage son of Duncan Matthews. Josh was just like his father, and loved to tease Lynx when she was walking past Bayville High and he had football practice that day, she decided that it was only fair to give him something back. Not long after Lynx rang the bell, Josh opened the door and gasped when he saw Lynx and a huge guy behind her. "Wh…wh…what do want Lynx?"

"Well Josh, I thought that I would give you a gift, and a few words of wisdom to show that there's no hard feelings between us, ok?" the corners of Josh's mouth turned up at the word 'gift'.

"Sure, what is it?"

"First the words of wisdom." Lynx paused a second before smiling to him. "Payback's a bitch Josh, and so am I, then the gift." Lynx balled up her fist behind her back and punched Josh in the face, sending him backwards into a shelf in the dining room, breaking every piece of china that was on the shelf.

"You bitch, that was my mother's best china! She'll kill me!" Josh freaked, looking at the broken piece's of china all around his body.

"Good, then maybe I can help her out a little by doing the job myself." Lynx smiled as she stepped into the house, Piotr right behind her.

"What the hell is going on here Josh?" Lynx turned around and watched Duncan and his wife Amber (it's the same Amber that was friend's with Holly and hated Rita when she was a teen)  step into the house.

"They're mutants dad! The girl is Rita's daughter!" Josh yelled, standing up and backing into a wall.

"Thank you for the wonderful introduction Josh, but you didn't finish it, I'm Lynx and his is my boyfriend Piotr." Lynx offered her hand to Duncan, "it's so nice to finally meet you Mr. Matthews."

"Your Rita's daughter? Are you just as much of a bitch as she is?" Amber stepped towards Lynx and Piotr.

"I don't know, am I bitch Piotr?" Lynx looked up at Piotr.

"Not that I know of, I'm sure that killing of Jean Grey's children was a pure accident." Piotr smiled as Duncan's mouth dropped at Jean's name.

"Jean had kids? How many? Who's the father? You killed them?" Amber seemed to look pissed that her husband was still interested in Jean, even though she was a mutant.

"Of course she had kids, two of them which yes I did kill them, and the father is or was Scott Summers, they got married a while back." Lynx loved the look of Duncan's face when he heard Scott's name.

"Summers! Is that why you're here? Summers told you to come after my family?" Duncan's teeth were pressed so hard together that they were grinding against each other.

"No, I don't live with them, they all suck, I came for your family because I don't like your son teasing me so I came to repay the favor." Lynx smiled and turned back to Josh, advancing towards him at a slow steady pace.

"Josh! You moron, don't tease the mutants, haven't you heard about the mutants who kill people that tease them?" Duncan yelled at his son.

"Funny, I seem to remember you teasing mutants when you were young as well Duncan." Jean and Scott stood in the doorway behind Duncan and Amber.

"What are you two doing here?" Lynx turned around and saw the two X-Men.

"We came to stop you Lynx, and for the record, you have bad taste in boyfriends." Jean looked at Lynx as she put a hand to her temple and Lynx rose into the air.

Piotr watched Lynx rise into the air as his armor covered his body. "Bad move you two." Piotr looked at Scott and began walking to him as Scott's visor began to glow a bright red, letting out one of his powerful optic blasts, hitting Colossus right in the chest. Colossus looked down at his chest where the red beam was hitting him and continued walking forward as if the beam was nothing but a child's laser pointer.

"Be careful Jean, I'm taking my visor off." Scott yelled to Jean as she stepped back, still holding Lynx in the air. Scott gave one quick glance to his side to make sure Jean was safe before taking his visor off and hitting Colossus with everything he had.

"Is that all you have X-Geek?" Colossus laughed as he continued to head for Cyclops.

Hold on Scott, Jean. we'll be there as fast as we can, we're on our way. Scott took a step back as his head filled with his mentor's voice. Ok Professor Scott mentally answered back.

"Keep it up Scott, he has to weaken sometime." Jean threw Lynx against a wall as she let out a tiny whimper of pain.

"Lynx!" Colossus turned to look at Lynx and made sure she was ok, then turned back to Scott. "You'll get it now." Colossus covered the distance between him and Scott quickly, despite his weight with the armor, as he grabbed Scott's uniform and punched him in the face, splitting his lip and breaking his nose.

"Scott!" Charles, Logan, Rita, Remy, Rogue, Shawn, Marie, and Tyler came into sight at the door as Charles turned to Colossus and sent a multitude of psychic blasts to his head. Colossus put a hand to his head and fell to his knees, trying hard to keep his armor on.

Marie looked around the room and smiled when she saw Lynx, her wings appearing behind her. Marie flew into the air and right up to Lynx's face, punching her. "You bitch! It's because of you that mom and dad want to send me to military school!" Marie drew her fist back and punched Lynx again, watching her slid down the wall when Jean let her go, Marie silently landing in front of Lynx.

"Marie! Calm down!" Tyler ran to Marie's side and put a hand on her shoulder. "Let her go Marie, she doesn't deserve to have the crap beaten out of her."

"Your right Tyler, but I'll do it anyway." Marie glared at Lynx.

"Don't Marie, please don't." Tyler watched Lynx stand up and Marie threw her into the wall again.

"Marie! Stop it!" Shawn ran to Marie's other side. "She wrecked our home and all, but she's still our old friend."

Shawn  grabbed one of Marie's arms and Tyler grabbed the other one as Charles told the boys to take Marie outside where the Matthew's were. "Are you trying to kill Lynx alone? She's stronger then you!" Tyler put an arm around Marie.

"Yes I am, I want her dead, she needs to suffer like everyone else has suffered." Marie looked to the side as Lynx stepped out of the house, facing Marie with Tyler's arm around her.

"Once I leave you fall for this tramp Tyler?" Lynx's eyes filled with anger.

"She's not a tramp Lynx, you are." Tyler took a trading card from his pocket and charged it up, throwing it at Lynx's face.

"Ahh!" Lynx covered her eyes, but not before some of the explosion got in them, forcing her to back off.

"Way to go Tyler, you stood up to Lynx, and you beat her." Shawn put a hand on Tyler's shoulder.

The three watched as Piotr broke through the wall and picked up the temporarily blind Lynx and ran off somewhere. "What happened to Lynx?" Rita came running out after Piotr.

"Tyler blinded her." Marie looked up to her mother as Rogue and Remy stepped out through the hole that Piotr made.

"Then it's time to go." The mutants all looked to Professor Xavier and followed him to the X-Van.

"Bye Duncan." Jean called behind her to the speechless Duncan and his family.

"Marie, we still need to talk about your punishment." Marie sat on one of the tree branches in the woods as her parents walked up to the tree under her.

"And?"
