Disclaimer: Chapter 1 holds the secret. (I no, I'm lazy and don't change this part).

A/N: Okay kiddies, in case you haven't figured it out, what I do when starting to type a new chapter is take the previous one, change the chapter number and name, and delete everything but the author's notes and disclaimer. Just telling you so you don't think I'm a complete idiot when you see how much I repeat myself in these two sections. Thank you all again for your replies!! E-mail with ideas and any other comments at jupitergurl02@hotmail.com are STILL appreciated! (I haven't had anyone respond to this yet. sobs)

Okay, yay! I just thought it would be fun to put in something about the mornings of both houses of mutants. Why not? I can't imagine any of them being morning people and thought it would be a fun idea. So here it is!

Chapter 20, (Not so) Good Morning

Mornings in the 'Hood were always fun. Angela was often the last up and since Pietro was the first, they all had to deal with his obsessive worrying until about noon when Angela finally stepped back into the world of the living. She had a late start this morning, getting up about two p.m., and Pietro had been camping outside her door.
"What are you doing out here?" demanded Fay irritably as she walked out of her own room. "It's 11:00 am!"
"She's not up yet! What's wrong? Is she sick do you think? What's the matter with her, Fay? You're one of her friends! Should I call Lisa?"
"Shut up, Speedy!" Lance growled, a small tremor shaking the house. There was a loud thud, then a crash as something was hurled at the other side of Angela's door. They turned as some strange shouts were heard.
"Amin naa um-kaim! Kela! Sii'!" came Angela's strained, tired voice. Lance had stepped out of his room and looked at Pietro. They exchanged confused glances as Fay stomped downstairs. Pietro suddenly cried out as if in great agony.
"What is you problem!?" demanded Lance angrily, not yet having his coffee. There was another crash from Angela's room and more yelling.
"Au'! Amin naa um-kaim! Kela!! Sii'!" Freddie walked out of his room, blinking toward Angela's door.
"What's going on?" he asked, confused.
"It's Speedy's girlfriend," said Lance irritably.
"She's possessed!" wailed Pietro. Lance hit his head with his hand, groaning as he walked downstairs to make some coffee. Fred shrugged and followed, leaving Pietro to sit and cry in front of Angela's door.
"We're out of coffee!?" came Lance's enraged inquiry from downstairs. There was much scuffling and then the slamming of the door and the starting of the Jeep. Pietro ran out to him just before he pulled out.
"Don't forget crosses! Oh! And holy water! Stop at the church to see if they'll loan us a priest!" he called as Lance pulled away. He returned to his place in front of Angela's door to mourn. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Does Lisa always sleep so late?" asked Kurt.
"Most likely," replied Mikey. Kurt sighed as she walked downstairs in he pajamas. He smiled and hugged her.
"Ack! What- early, need sleep... Or pancakes... Who wants pancakes for breakfast?" she asked. Kurt blinked.
"You know, you're almost as scary as Angela in ze morning," he commented. Lisa smiled.
"Oh, I'm always this bad. I just have more inhibitions than she does. I can control it better. Muwahahahahahaha!!" Kurt eeped, jumping behind Mikey to hide. The phone rang and Lisa answered. "Morning."
"Hey, Lisa? This is so great! You gotta come over!" came Fay's hurried, but hushed voice from the other end.
"Fay? It's early. We were gonna eat breakfast. What do you want?"
"Well, I forgot to tell Pietro that Angela's started to learn Elven and she yelled at him and now he thinks she's possessed! He wants to do an exorcism!"
"What? That's horrible, Fay!" said Lisa. "We'll be right over."
"But what about breakfast?" whined Kurt. Lisa sighed, nodding.
"Oh, I can't I promised I'd make everyone pancakes. Mmm. Pancakes."
"Okay, I'll go," said Fay, sighing.
"Hey, Fay, wait."
"Yeah?"
"Take pictures."
"Oh, definitely." Lisa hung up the phone and smiled. Everyone looked confused.
"Pietro wants to do an exorcism on Angela!" she said happily, laughing.
"What? Why?" asked Ray, confused and a bit worried about his cousin.
"She's learning Elven."
"Vhat does zat haff to do vith anysing?" asked Kurt. "Vait, zat's actually a language zat you can learn?"
"Yup, I'll explain later. Kurt, why don't you help me with the pancakes?"
"But I've never made-"
"Now." Kurt blinked, then smiled, nodding.
"Okay, bye guyz!" They went into the kitchen together. "So vhat's ze plan?" he asked.
"Hot sauce," said Lisa, smiling. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Pietro sat, sobbing, at the kitchen table. He had a large cross that he had made out of popsicle sticks and a bowl of tap water. Fay was standing against the counter, watching him while trying to contain her laughter.
"Do you really think that tap water will work?" asked Fred. He looked scared.
"It will have to. We can't wait any longer for Lance," said Pietro with finality. There was a groan from upstairs, a thump, then Angela came downstairs, still in her pajamas. Everyone blinked at her and Pietro quickly hid the cross and water. "Uh, good morning?"
"Manie?" she asked tiredly. She glared at Pietro. "Lle Um-cuiva amin," she said angirly. Pietro blinked, backing away. [2]
"F-fay? Save me! What's she saying? She's going to kill me, isn't she? Oh woe is me!" With that, he ran away. Angela went over to the coffee pot. Freddie backed away, nearly knocking the drying dishes over in doing so. Angela grabbed a drinking glass and poured coffee in it.
"Shouldn't you use a mug?" asked Fay.
"Mankoi?" [2] asked Angela, yawning and taking a drink of the luke- warm liquid. She shrugged and drank the rest of it hurriedly. She stretched and Freddie backed away, running back up to his room. "What's with those two?" she asked. Fay grinned.
"Oh, I dunno," she said innocently. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Breakfast is served!" said Lisa with a bow, setting the plates in front of the assembled mutants at the table. She smiled when she handed Evan his.
"Wow, thanks Lees. No hard feelings then?" he said, putting butter and syrup on them. Lisa smiled and continued to distribute the plates. Evan blinked, then shrugged and began cutting his breakfast up.
"Lisayougottahelpme!" exclaimed Pietro, running into her. Luckily she had just given out the last plate.
"Let go of me! What do you want, you speedy freak?" she growled, pushing him away.
"It's Angela! She's gonna kill me!"
"Water!" Evan screamed. He had just eaten a large bite of the pancakes. Lisa smiled and looked at him.
"Vhat's ze matter, don't like hot sauce in your pancakes?" asked Kurt, smiling as well. Pietro blinked, watching.
"Did I interrupt something?" he asked, suddenly forgetting about his life being in danger.
"Yeah," said Logan, smiling at Evan, then glaring at Pietro. "Breakfast."
"Eep! Uh, h-hey Wolvie, how's the claws?" said Pietro nervously.
"Pietro, go home," said Lisa.
"But I like pancakes."
"There ain't enough. Go away ya brotherhood freak!" said Rogue angrily.
"Hey, watch it. You used to be one of us, y'know," said Pietro.
"He can have mine!" said Evan. He was working on pouring his third glass of milk. Rogue hid a laugh by coughing. The others sniggered to themselves.
"Besides, this is fun to watch! What did he do to you guys, anyway?" Snikt. "Uh-oh. On second thought, I better go do that exorcism," said Pietro backing away toward the door.
"Hey, wait a minute!" called Lisa before he could go.
"What?"
"She's not possessed. She's learning Elven," Lisa explained calmly.
"What? Really? Ohcool! Mygirlfriend'snotposessed! Yay! ThanksIoweyouone,bye!" with that, he sped off toward the Brotherhood.
"Why did you tell him?" asked Mikey.
"Yeah, it woulda been funny to hear about later," said Scott, smiling as he ate his breakfast. He continued to watch Evan along with everyone else.
"You guys! That's it, I'm going to my room," he said in mock anger.
"Don't forget your breakfast!" said Mikey, laughing.
"Mos' impo'ant meal o' de day!" Remy called after him. Everyone laughed and finished their meal.

[1] amin naa um-kaim is Elven for I am sleeping. Kela is go and Sii' is now! Hehe, I love Elven! [2] More Elven. Manie is What, Lle Um-cuiva amin is you woke me. Mankoi is why.

A/N: Again, I have no idea why Pietro always jumps to the conclusion that I've been taken over by some supernatural force. Maybe he's just worried about me. Cormamin niuve tenna' ta elea lle au' (which is Elven for 'My heart shall weep until it sees thee again.')
