Bayville Cemetery Midnight...

Bats swooped down from the dark cloudy sky to the tall old oak trees hunting for mosquitoes. The full moon was out covering the night with gleams of bright light brightening up the cemetery a bit. A fast blowing wind with the speed of light had come to be appearing from a very distance. Of course you'd know what it was.

"Welcome to Bayville Cemetery." Pietro read the entrance sign.

"So this is what a cemetery looks like?" Pep stared at the black rusty gate that had the sign on top. Never in her whole life has she been to a cemetery before. She knew about it through horror movies, which never spooked her. She enjoyed watching those freaky stuff.

Pietro looked around the place hoping no one was watching them. He looked pretty scared and wished they never came here at night. He read another sign that was chained to the main gate.

"Closed. What luck Pep I guess we better turn back and maybe we can check it out tomorrow morning." The so-called fearless speed demon pushed the lil explosive away from the gates.

"But you promised!" Pep pushed him to the main gate but he dodged her.

"Of course I promised squirt. Its just that..."

"Your scared of this place admit it!" the girl finished his sentence.

"Me scared? Ha who would think that. Only Pietro is the bravest, the most fearless being in the planet." He fibbed.

"Then if you say so." She was thin enough to go through the bars of the gates. "You comin or are you just chicken."

"Hhhhey listeeeen...." He stammered. "I think it would be better in the morning ok? Ok? Pep don't leave me!" He ran through the bars and grabbed on to the fearless young mutant's body.

"Oh for pities sake what's wrong with you. You know there's no such thing as ghosts." Pep slipped out of his trembling arms.

"Yeah your right there isn't...right?"

"Um ya of course not. Its just your um....imagination." Pep had to come up with something to let Pietro snap out of it and was pretty annoyed.

"Um.....Ok its this way! This way! Follow me!" he imitated Dory's voice, grabbed on to Pep and disappeared deeper into the place.

_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_

"Buzzzzzzt!"

"Ok I rang it for the seventh time and why is no one answering the freakin door!" Ray complained.

"Problem solved Crispy the freakin door bell doesn't work." Lance explained.

"Its Crisp, Alvers! The problem will be solved! I'll make it work! Just watch me!" Volts of electricity came out of his hands and went through the broken doorbell.

_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_

Inside....

"Bing Bong!"

"Get the door!" Fred yelled from the kitchen.

"Yo you get it! I'm watching here!"

"I said get the freakin door!"

"Bing Bong!"

"You get it!"

"No you get it!"

"Lets play a game of poker. Loser answers the door!" Todd grabbed his deck of cards.

"Deal!"

"Cool!"

"Bing Bong!"

"Sick you got slime all over the cards!"

"So!"

"I'm not playing!"

"Well then you get the door!"

"No there's got to be away to settle this!"

"Bing Bong!"

"I know rock, paper and scissors!"

"Fine!"

"1, 2, 3, GO!"

"Ha paper beats rock!"

"No way man you cheated!"

"You cant cheat in this game!"

"Well you went to fast!"

"Bing Bong!"

_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_

"Problem solved yeah right!" Bobby complained.

"Like you can fix it ice cube!" Ray rolled his eyes.

"Well there was a Bing Bong." Amara said.

"Nah its just takes time for those jerks to answer it." Lance explained.

"Well then we'll just have to bust through the door the hard way!" Scott aimed his visor.

"Hello are you guys stupid! I can like phrase through it remember!" Kitty interrupted.

"Ja I knew zat. I just zidn't vunt to zay it." Kurt fibbed.

"Shuddup!"

"Yeah Kitty Pie is right."

"Then why don't yah phrase in the freakin door!" Rogue yelled.

"Well I was but you guys wont quit it will you!"

"You want me tah put yah in ah comma raht now!" Rogue pulled a glove off.

"Why cant you just quit it!"

"It's just a freakin door!"

"Yeah so..."

"So go in!"

"But...."

"Go in!" Everyone yelled in unison even Lance.

"This is gonna be a long night!" Jean complained who felt like having a headache.

_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_

"7, 8, 9, ooh community chest!" Todd used his turn.

"What did ya get?"

"Um lets see? Go to jail! Go directly to jail! Do not pass..."

Blob moved the horse piece to its place. Then he threw the dice. "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, Boardwalk!"

"Noooooo!"

"Oh yeah baby!"

"Your not gonna buy it are ya?" Todd pleaded.

"I'm not that stupid Frog Boy!" he put the fake cash in the bank cause he was the banker.

"Psst Junior do ya think his cheatin?" Todd grabbed his Kermit doll and started talking to it.

"You know I think this will take too long?"

"I told ya we should have stuck ta poker!"

"Man I would have played if you didn't slime the cards!"

"Did not!"

"Did too!"

"Me and Junior says I'm innocent so majority wins!"

"Stupid Kermit frog doll!"

"He's not Kermit! And how dare you call Junior a frog!"

"Like guys what the hell s taking you so long!" Kitty's head appeared through the door.

"Hey what are you doin here?" Fred freaked.

"Hey yo Kitty what do you think of Toad Junior?" Todd hopped in front of her showing off the Kermit doll.

_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_

"Eeeeeek!" Kitty's scream was heard from inside.

"Man what are those morons up to now!" Lance gritted his teeth.

"Stand back guys! I'm putting this baby in full blast!"

"How come we never get to do those things!" Amara folded her arms.

"Will you just leave Scott alone!" Jean defended.

"Ooh Scott and Jean sitting on a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G! First comes love then comes marriage!" Ray sang.

"Then comes a baby in a baby carriage! Whoo!" Bobby finished.

"Shuddup!" Rogue roared.

They all stared at her. "What?"

"I could just teleport in there ja know." Kurt suggested. Everyone slapped her faces.

Scott ignored him and shot the door down.

"Oh my gosh! I didn't know you liked Kermit! Where did you get those pjs?" Kitty stared at the doll with aw.

"None of your business and his name is not Kermit !" Todd answered backing away.

"Ok...." Scott felt like fainting.

"Nice pj's Tolensky." Bobby laughed.

"Really?"

"Kitty I'm so glad your ok! What have they been doing to you?" Lance hugged her.

"Back from Bali so early?" Todd asked.

"Shuddup Frog Boy!"

"I'm a toad!"

"Where's that Jerk!" Amara interrupted.

"Who me?" Todd asked.

"No Pietro!" Rogue corrected.

"What about him?" Fred asked.

"He kidnapped Pepper!" Ray said.

"Oh her."

"Where is she?" Jean asked.

"I dunno?"

"Vat zu you mean you zon't know man!" Kurt pounced on Fred. "Do you know vat it feels to lose a kid like zat!"

"Tab's right. Kurt does go ballistic over kids." Bobby whispered to Amara.

"Hey no one does that to the Blob!" he tried to punch Night Crawler but he quickly teleported. "Huh werd he go?"

"Right here!" he reappeared on the ceiling and tackled Fred.

'Fight! Fight! Fight!" Amara yelled. Everyone stopped and stared at her. "Was I suppose to say that?"

"Jean can you please use your telepathy and find her!" Scott begged.

Jean put her hands to her and head and concentrated. "Wait I think I know where she is?"

_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_

Somewhere deep inside the cemetery....

Pep had gotten dizzy from all the running with Pietro and decided to walk instead.

"Man aren't you freezing cold!" Pietro shivered trying to warm himself.

"Ever since I got my powers my body temp is use to any kind of weather. I feel warm most of the time." She answered looking down.

"Do you have a fever or somethin?" he joked. Pep forced a smile and looked as if see was choking herself in the neck.

"You ok?"

"Huh?"

"Whasat?" he asked pointing to a golden locket that appeared in her neck and was hidden by her bloody red hair.

"Oh this." She unchained it and held it for him to see. "Its my parents?" She opened the lock and picture of a woman wearing a white gown and a man wearing a tux was seen.

"Man your mom looks hot- I mean nice. Ooh cool tux your dads wearing." He hoped he didn't hurt her feelings.

"Yeah it was their wedding." Pep explained sadly closing it.

"Can I see it again?" Pietro looked kinda curious.

"Sure, scratch it or I'll burn ya." She sounded serious and tossed it to him.

Pep was concentrating hard again to get the memories out of her head. She wished she never even mentioned to him about the locket or better yet hadn't touched it.

"So your dad is dead too?" He wished he hadn't asked her that.

Flames grew in her bright red eyes followed by tears. "He was murdered when I was two." She said a bit angry.

"How?"

"I dunno!"

"Oh I'm so sorry." Pietro had his hands in his pockets.

"No I'm sorry for acting like this. I hate myself. I wish this never happened to me."

"Hey you should be glad you got powers like that. Not everyone has them." He tried to cheer her up.

"But that makes me a freak." She tried to scream.

"That makes me one too." He never meant to say that cause he was 100% sure he wasn't (for his opinion).

"Um Pietro."

"Yeah squirt I mean Pep."

"Thanks for being my friend."

"No prob." He blushed. Actually I wasn't expecting the challenge to be like this. I kinda like this kid. He said in his mind and smiled. Well except for her wicked powers. I gotta admit she's kinda like a sister to me even better than Wanda. Wait! What the hell am I saying!

A hand tapped his back and his almost felt like running out of the cemetery for good. "Hello are you deaf or something?" Pep was trying to get his attention for the past few seconds.

"Boy you rrreally scared me girl! Don't do that again!"

"And you said you were the most fearless being in the planet." Pep imitated his voice and movements.

"Dude I am! Its just that..." he choked.

"Aw cmon its nothin to be embarrassed about." Her joyful mood came back.

"Fine you win for once squirt but promise don't you ever tell this to Blob and Todd!" he looked serious.

"Just Blob and Todd." She gave him a devilish smile.

"Oh no your not!" he grabbed hold of the girl making sure she wouldn't get free and gave her a noogie. For the first time Pep seemed to enjoy it.

"Ok I promise!" she let out her cute giggle.

"Not even Lance or the X-geeks!" he laughed then gave her a quick hug. He seemed to be enjoying this.

"Hey is it me or have we just seen those trees before?" they stopped walking and looked around the familiar spot they've passed by before.

"Hey I know where I'm goin!"

"Riiight..."

Another round later....

"Look lets just turn back. I kinda forgot where it was?" he lied. He looked back in surprise and saw that Pep was gone. "Holy crap!" Crazy thoughts zoomed through his head. Oh great I'm stuck here all alone! What if ghosts really existed! No what am I thinking! Man Dad's gonna kill me! His heart started beating faster than a mouse. "Pep where are you! Pep you lil devil this is no time for hide and seek! Crud where the hell did she go!" He dashed to every step they took but still had no clue where she was.

_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_

"A cemetery why the hell would they be in a cemetery at a time like this!" Lance groaned when they arrived. Kitty, Amara, Ray, Todd and Fred rode on his jeep while he drove and the rest of the crew rode with Scott.

"Like ew I'm not going in there!" Kitty looked disgusted by the old looking gate with the entrance sign.

"I gotta agree with Kitty." Amara joined.

"Hey do you think they bury animals here too?" Todd asked.

"You idiot why the hell would they bury frogs here!" Fred rolled his eyes.

"Yo I was referring to toads."

"Next time I'm riding with Scott. I'm sick of you guys arguing about frogs and toads! I mean what's the difference!" Ray mumbled.

"Let's just say toads are bigger and better and frogs are puny and stupid." Todd explained.

"Like you." Fred showed him a fist.

"Heh heh yeah whatever." Todd said frightened hopping away.

"Ok guys lets split into pairs. Me and Jean..." Everyone started oohing and making kissing sounds.

"Scott please get them to shut up!" Jean demanded who had came up with a really bad headache.

"One more word or you're toast!" Everyone kept their mouths shut and tried to control themselves from laughing. "Ok Me and Jean, Bobby and Kitty, Ray and Amara, Rogue and Alvers, and um Dukes and Tolensky got it?"

"No fair Kitty Pie is mine!" Lance pushed Bobby away from her.

"Have it your way lover boy!" Bobby walked away from the couple and stood beside the Rogue.

"Aht least I'm not stuck with that moron!" Rogue folded her arms and walked towards the gate.

"Hey are we forgetting someone?" Ray reminded.

"Oh yeah how bout Kurt? Does he have a partner?" Amara asked.

"Yeah what happened to the blue fuzz ball?" Kitty tried to jerk away from Lance who was holding her too tight.

"Forget him!" Lance yelled.

"Great! Don't tell me he just disappeared looking for Pep without telling us!" Scott slapped his visor. "Ow!"

"Hahaha that's what you get Mr. Bosy Butt!" Todd laughed.

"Shuddup or your toast!"

"Make me!"

"Will all of you please shut up!" Jean broke the fight. She couldn't stand it anymore.

Their eyes turned to her. "What?"

"Jean!" Everyone screamed in unison.

"Fine whatever but will you stop treating me like a robot!"
