Pyro-Babe: You kick ass your self and to answer your question she might be a little old for me but it isn't a crime to dream^_^
RedLion2: Thanks for the review. My moms an English major to and so is my bro's gf so should know better, but what can I say, I'm a slacker. Jk. Thanx for bringing it to my attention. Please please please right another chapter in "Shadows of Confusion"
Everyone else thanx for your reviews this chappie will be mostly at Duncan's party. Ok to the chapter
P.S. thought I would be awesome if I did I don't own any of the x-men. Just the plot
"Kurt ah told you tah watch that tail, it's whipping around the whole backseat." Rogue gave her brother a smack on the arm.
"Sorry sis it has a mind of it's own." As it to prove Kurt's point, his tail began repeatedly poking Rogue in the shoulder before finally settling back to its favorite spot around Kitty's waist.
The X-teens were heading over to Duncan Matthews party and since Scott refused to take the X-van everyone was piled into his little convertible. He was driving and Jean was sitting in the passengers' seat, which was normal. In the backseat however it was utter chaos. Rogue and Bobby were jammed against the car doors, fighting to regain their seats, while Evan, Kurt and Kitty (Kitty was in Kurt's lap) were fighting just as hard to keep their own seats in the middle.
"Guys cool it your gonna trash my car." Scott yelled from the front seat. "Look we're here everyone out before we have no ride to get home with."
The car can to an abrupt stop and everyone jumped out and ran up to the door to Duncan's house. The sound of the party going on inside was almost deafening. Scott made to ring the doorbell before he could the door swung open and Duncan was standing in front of them.
"Yo dudes what's happening? There's food over by the table, beer in the fridge, and bedrooms throughout the house, so have fun." He burped and the smell of alcohol wafted through the air.
"Beer?" Kitty asked timidly.
"Well you don't have to drink it pretty Kitty." He said making a pouting face. He turned to jean. "Hey Jean, Meet me in my room later."
"Get over yourself Duncan." She pushed passed him into the house followed closely by Scott and the rest of the X-men.
They found the house packed with people (except freshman of course.) Most were dancing in the living room, some were out on the balcony, and occasionally two people could be seen slipping off to the many bedrooms. When the entered the living room Liz Phair's song "Why Can't I" was playing.
"I love this song." Kitty squealed and pulled Kurt onto the dance floor.
"But ze food." Kurt made one last grab for the snack table before finally allowing Kitty to drag her wherever her heart desired.
"I'm with Kitty." Jean said, and dragged Scott into the crowd.
"Well I think it is time we make a dent in the munchies." Evan sauntered over to the food table.
"Works for me." Bobby followed him, leaving Rogue by herself.
"Well Ah might as well go to." She sighed and walked over to the table where the boys were gorging themselves.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Kurt and Kitty were having the time of their lives, they both loved to dance so they were content to do that for several hours. Kitty laughed as Kurt did his trademark dance. Then the song ended and Brittany Spears' song "I'm Not A Girl Not Yet A Woman" began to play. Kurt pulled Kitty very, very close to him, giving her a quick kiss.
"Finally, a slow song." He whispered into her ear as she laid her head on his shoulder, her arms around his neck. His arms were wrapped around her neck, and unbeknownst to anyone else, so was his tail. Kitty smiled and closed her eyes, enjoying his warmth and the soft touch of his fur. She pulled away from him.
"Something vrong Leib?" Kurt asked, a little surprised by the sudden movement.
"Nothing fuzzy," Kitty blushed a little. "It's just."
"Just vat?"
"I love you." The words came out off her mouth before she knew what she was saying. She looked into his beautiful eyes, wondering how mad he was inside. To her surprise he smiled, and took her hands in his own.
"I love you to Katzchen."
Despite herself Kitty felt a tear streak down her cheek, and she laughed as Kurt brushed it away with a kiss.
"Duncan get the hell off me!"
Their moment was broken as Jean's cry came from across the room. Duncan had her by the wrist and was trying to drag her into an empty bedroom. Scott was on the ground unconscious.
"Kurt we have to help Jean." Kitty cried. Kurt nodded in agreement and they hurried into the group of people now clustering around Duncan and his hostage.
When they reached the center of the group they found Jean, struggling against Duncan's hold. It was simple to tell Duncan was drunk. He was fighting off Evan, Bobby, and Rogue, and was doing a pretty good job of it. Evan already had one black eye and had just received another when a kick to the stomach knocked the wind out of him. Duncan wasn't usually a match for this number of people, especially X-men, but in his drunken rage his brain couldn't register the stain he was putting on his body. A figure flew through air and Rogue landed unconscious next to Scott. Bobby was the only one left.
"That's it." Kurt said, and launched himself at Duncan. He landed on the senior's back and started ripping at the older boys hair. Duncan cried out in rage, releasing Jean's wrist and began clawing at Kurt trying to get a hold of him. Bobby took advantage of Duncan's vulnerable moment and rushed at him; but just as Bobby got near him, Duncan got a hold of Kurt's arm and used him like a baseball bat to knock Bobby away. The two landed on the floor, unconscious, in the small pile of X-men already down.
Kitty looked around at her friends all unconscious except for Jean, who lay crumpled on the floor in shock.
"Hey Ass Hole!!" She stepped forward
"What's wrong Pretty Kitty, you want to play to? Come on give me a kiss."
He puckered his lips and stumbled towards her, trying to get her into a bear hug. Kitty ducked as his armed swung around but grabbed nothing but air. As his arms parted Kitty came up with a palm strike to the chin, which knocked him back a few feet. His drunken featured turned into a scowl and he ran at her. When he got a few feet away from her, Kitty grabbed his arm and twisted it around behind him, using his own momentum to send him flipping to the ground flat on his back. He stayed on the ground for a while and Kitty turned. She walked a few steps forward and heard him stand back up and charge at her one time. She turned on a dime and sent him flying with a spinning back kick to the chest, this time he lay unconscious.
"Where's the phone?" She looked up at the thirty people standing with their mouths hanging open, eyes wide in shock. They pointed as one to the cordless phone on the counter.
"Professor?" She spoke into the phone, losing a bit of her previous adrenaline rush. "Can you come pick us up?"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The X-men had all gathered in the rec room, most sporting ice packs and others sporting bruised egos. The Professor, Logan, Ororo, and Hank were standing in the front of the room, glaring at the students that sat before them.
"I can't tell you how disappointed I am with all of you." The Professor finally spoke. " I was told by each and every one of you that nothing would go wrong. I gave you my trust and you threw it away. What do you have to say for yourselves?"
" It was all Duncan's fault, Professor." Jean chimed in first. " He was drunk and tried to. to." She trailed off
"Tried to what Red." Logan looked at her
"Please Logan don't make me say it."
"What Jean is trying to say," Scott cut in. "Is that we were just protecting a team mate.
"And you did a wonderful job of it." Logan snarled
"Logan." Ororo put a hand on his shoulder, trying to calm him, but he shrugged her off.
"As far as I can see the only one who actually did anything was Kitty (great job by the way half-pint) because it's hard to fight when you're unconscious."
Xavier cut in. "Though your intentions were good, I still will not condone violence when not completely necessary, and especially not with humans. Scott what if your glasses had fallen off and blasted an onlooker or even Mr. Matthews? You have all learned to control your powers quite well but accidents still happen, and the world still has not fully accepted mutants. One wrong move and all we have worked for could be erased. For the time being all of you are grounded. You will go to school, and then come home straight after for extra danger room sessions with Logan for the next two weeks. Am I understood?" Everyone nodded. "Good, now for the rest of the day you are free to relax and rest yourselves. I am sure most of you could use the break."
They all rushed out the door, muttering their thanks. Kitty grabbed Kurt's arm as they left the room.
"Come on Fuzzy," She smiled, a mischievous glint in her eyes. "Lets do 'rest up' in the Hammock."
Well that is the third chapter. I'm not sure if I spelled "Leib" right or not so if I didn't I'm sorry.I don't really have much to say except I hope you like it and please please please review. Have a great life ^_^
