Rogue was dreaming. She was currently in a completely normal psychotic dream, where she was on a roller coaster. It was stuck in a loop.

'God this is boring,' She said? But the words echoed, sending ripples through everything. She turned in her seat, shadows sat completely still in the other seats. There was one seat that was empty though, and she wondered whom it was reserved for.

'What the?' Everything went silent except for her heartbeat, and then she heard a noise. It was a drum. It had a slow tempo, only sounding once in a seemed eternity. It began to quicken. Snow started to fall as the beat increased. It was cold, strangely cold, she suddenly found herself shivering uncontrollably. Then it wasn't cold any more, it wasn't anything. The beat matched her racing heartbeat, seeming to merge with her. The snow stopped. Two drums played on. And the shadows changed. They pulsed as they grew in size. The roller coaster was- were trees, in a grassy plain. The sky was dark; the shadows stood in front of her as frenzied beasts. She knew that if she didn't stop them then they'd kill her. They growled. She growled back.

******************

"There's like nothing on!" Kitty said, her eyes firmly attached to the TV as she changed the channels like a sugar crazed monkey in matting season (*grinning* so any bad images yet? no? well. don't be disappointed, there will be more.) on that blessed invention known simply as The Remote.

"There has to be something on!" Jamie exclaimed from down on the floor. "125 channels and you cannae (A.N., I tried, I really did) find anything to watch?"

"I know, it's like such a crock!"

"See what's on CN!" Jamie suggested raising his hands and falling backwards.

"I didn't know you watched the news." Jubilee sounded incredulous.

"Wro-oo-ong cha-nnel!" Jamie said in a singsong voice.

"That's CNN right?"
"No, it's CBS," Bobby said and grabbed the chips.

"Hey those are mine!" Jamie said sitting up and pointing at him.

"Not any mor-urf!" Bobby taunted up until Jamie tackled him. Six Jamies suddenly fell upon Bobby, pulling his hair, twisting his arms, forcing him to pick his own nose, and other childhood fighting. But one fought with a vengeance. He punched him repeatedly before being pulled off by a deranged looking Amara.

"Break it up before I go molten on your asses!" A muffled "She said a naughty!" came from somewhere under her arm.

"Ya Amara, like why all the, um, hostility?" Amara dropped Jamie (three more!) and slowly turned to Kitty, a slight maniacal look to her eyes.

"I don't know, maybe it's the lack of quality television. Or maybe I. just.need. to get.some.fresh air." Amara twitchily walked out the door. Her hand spasmed and a flame sprung from her fingers. She looked down at it, cracking into a huge grin. She bairly made it out of the mansion before she burst into flames.

"Whoa! What was all that about?" A slightly frightened and disheveled Bobby asked, fighting off the remaining Jamies. Rahne shrugged.

"Pyromaniac build-up, it'll happen from time ta time."

"Huh-OWW! Stupid little piece o- GET BACK HERE! "He crawled out from under the Jamies then chased after the one who had kicked him in the ribs. The remaining eight ( I hope I calculated that right. lessee, 2 divided by 31.7 times.) grinned at each other and reabsorbed into the punching one. He plopped down in Bobby's couch spot.

"It's just too easy, you want these?" He held the chips out to the nearest person. Jubilee just shook her head and turned back to the tube.

"Like YES!" Kitty screamed and turned up the volume.

"What is this?" Jubilee asked after several minutes.

"It's like the best show ever!"

"Um, but what is it?"

"JAG," Rahne said and looked at the clock. "and it's almost over." Kitty's eyes nearly popped.

"Like what day is it?!"

"Um Friday."

"NOO!!! And it's a new episode!" She fell down onto her knees, not looking away from her precious. It ended.

"NOOOOOOOOO!!!!" Kitty sobbed, curling into the fetal position.

"It's ok, they'll show it again sometime," Jubilee comforted, patting her shoulder, it didn't help. Kitty sat up; with an insane look she began rocking and in a singsong voice.uh.sang.

"You will be tainted, a re-run, but I will except you none-the-less. Till next time, next time. Tune in next time, later yes later." Rahne scooted away from her, but not before grabbing the remote.

"Let's see what's on the movie channels."

"Try HBO, they have some good stuff," Jubilee suggested. Rahne changed the channel; they all sat in silence wide eyed. Kitty stopped muttering and turned to Jubilee looking shocked.

"NOT! What I was planning on!" Kitty just raised an eyebrow and turned back to the TV.

"I didn't know we even got this stuff!" Jamie said entrapped by what he was seeing. They all turned to him.

"What? I'm not that much of a kid; I do have a clue about these things. Kind of, I'm learning."

"No you're not!" Rahne punched in a number on the remote.nothing happened.

"Come on, change it already!"

"Um, I think the batteries went dead."

"Of all times!"

Wanda quietly ran out of the room, grinning. Sometimes I love this power. Something appeared in front of her, she ran into it.

"Hey vat are you doing here?" Kurt asked when he saw who it was.

"I'm not supposed to be here, I got lost in the plot line-".
PLOT LINE?! HOW DARE YOU!! I ALLOW YOU IN THIS SCENE, YOUR VERY DEBUT AND YOU GO AND INSULT ME THUS?! WELL I WILL STAND FOR NO MORE!! A disembodied voice.um.boomed. GET HER MY MINIONS! IT'S BACK TO YOUR CAGE YOU GO! A vortex of doom appeared and a murderous looking dragon creature flew out, it latched onto her shoulders and flew/dragged her into it. As a million squirrels swarmed around her feet. They all disappeared into the void. Kurt just shrugged and headed outside.

WAIT, KITTY IS IN IMMEDIAT DANGER, IN THE REC ROOM, THAT'D BE BOBBY BRING HIM TOO! Kurt nodded vigorously and walked towards the rec. room.

"Get back here now!" Bobby yelled as he past him, running after Jamie, running towards the rec. room. Jamie dived into Jamie, but not before grinning lopsidedly at the TV.

"I'm not getting up," Jubilee stated very end of discutionly.

"Me too it's like totally being beaten by technology."

"Stupid little midget!" Bobby advanced on Jamie who wasn't paying the least bit of attention to him. Bobby looked at what he was looking at and froze. (A.N. BAD sticky pun!) He slowly lowered his outstretched hands from Jamie's throat and sat down on the floor.

"I vill save you Keety!" Kurt shouted and burst into the room, to find the five of them hypnotized by the television. He saw what they were watching and and sat down in front of the couch.

"Keety I didn't know you ver (?) into these kind of things!"

"I like wasn- am totally not!"

******************

"Mwahahahaha! AhahahaHA HA HA!!" Amara cackled insanely as she danced around a pillar of flame in the back yard. Debris was quickly turning to ash; thus a fifty-foot radius scorch mark was born.

******************

"Ting, ting, ting," Pyro said sulkily as he kicked a pop can. He was bored, at the very least. "Ting." He kicked it into the road.

"Now look what you gone and did! Oh who am I badinaging?" He sniggered, then sighed. "This place just isn't any fun." He suddenly became alert.

"My conflagration senses are tingling!" Pyro looked into the distance and smiled.

******************

"Stupid bloody wall! Nothing will keep me from my beloved!" Pyro neatly climbed the wall and dropped onto the other side (yes it is possible, he just didn't land well), and got up running. He had to get to it, it would be his! Pyro all but drooled when he saw the pillar, and then he noticed her. She was beautiful, the very essence of the flame. The fire dissipated, the goddess reverted to human form, and without a word she walked into the mansion. He stood agape.

"I think It's love, I really do."

******************

"You get up and change it," Rahne said to Kitty.

"You, like, get up and change it," Kitty said to Jubilee.

"You get up and change it," Jubilee said to Bobby.

"You get up and change it," Bobby said to Kurt.

"You get up and change it," Kurt said to Jamie.

"You people are so incredibly lazy!"

"Am not," They all said simultaneously.

"I know you are but what am I?" Bobby asked, he really did think it was a good come back.

"Lazy."

"I know you are but what am I?"

"Lazy."

"I know you are but what am I?"

"Lazy."

"AAAAAA! Avert thine eyes!" Amara screamed and hurled a fireball at the t.v.. . It shot out sparks.. .then melted. Everyone just sat there blinking, then as one turned to Amara.

"How could you? There are children present!"

"Easy, you just push in numb- shutting up."
"Hey! You're only two years older then me!"

"And those years make all the difference. But really, what if the Professor found out, or Logan?" Everyone cringed at the thought.

"He's probably the one that ordered it!" Jamie said smiling; Kitty whacked him upside the head. And then there were three.

"OWW!"

"You know who like I think it was?" Bobby shook his head, and was whacked.

"I think it was like that creepy French guy that just joined. um Remy!" Everyone looked thoughtful.

"I am NOT FRENCH!" A voice yelled from upstairs.

"Are too!" They all shouted.

"Am not!"

"Are too!"

"AM NOT!"

"You are and you know it!"

"Goddamnit! Je ne SUIS pas français! Les gosses stupides de fucking!"(refer to bottom page.)

"See." He slowly faded away, muttering to himself.

"You know, it was just HBO, it could have been a mistake," Rahne pointed out. She froze and sniffed the air, then stared at Kurt, or more precisely the tin in his hand.

"Vat? Are these yours, they veer in the snak pile." She reached out and grabbed the tin from him.

"You could've asked!" She ignored him, and read the label, it said: Gondolier's Hazelnut Cream Wafers. She took out one of the cream filled wafer sticks, sniffed it, nibbled at the end, and wolfed (BAD! BAD STICKY PUN!) the tin down. She twitchily searched in all directions. MORE! THERE HAS TO BE MORE!

"MORE! Do we have any more?" Jubilee slowly shook her head.

"I MUST HAVE MOOOOORRRRREEE!" She all but screamed and ran to the kitchen. Kitty sighed.

"Well that's like it for the t.v." Bobby glared at Amara, who didn't look the least bit ashamed.

"Well why didn't you just change the channel?"

"Because, none of us wanted to admit being beaten by technology," He explained, it was so simple, why didn't she understand?

"Ya, and it was just getting to the good part! OW!" (three more) Jamie said rubbing the back of his head, then muttered. "You just don't want to admit it, and I'm called immature-OW! Stop hitting me! That's child abuse!"

"It is like totally not," Kitty said rolling here eyes.

"Yes it is, I should take you to court!"

"Like you'd have a case."

"I think I have a bruise already."

"Oh I'll give you a bruise!" Kitty advanced on ringleader Jamie.

"CHILD ABUSE! CHILD ABUSE!" Jamies shouted, and started hitting themselves (Oh, around.let's say twenty more? (A.N. My brother actually did this, he failed to realize he's a terrible actor who can't keep a straight face even when he's hitting himself, that and my mom was in the room.)).

"Quit that!"

"No! OW! Kitty, please, I'm sorry!" He yelled (grinning) then all the Jamies jumped into the original multiple.

"What the hell are you damn kids doing?" Logan growled from the doorway. " " Double naughty! Kitty wouldn't stop hitting me! Amara melted the t.v. and Kitty started hitting me!" Logan raised an eyebrow at the t.v.

"I did soo not you little liar!" Kitty tackled Jamie and started strangling him Homer Simpson style.

"Knock it off!" Logan said, pulling her off.

"You, all, outside, now! And you," he turned to Jamie. "nice one, don't lie." He walked out shaking his head.

"Liars go to hell," Bobby muttered.

"Don't push your luck, I will beat you up again!"

"You never did in the first place! Don't pick fights you can't win."

"I can take you anytime! Come on, outside!" He jumped up and ran outside.

"Kids," Bobby muttered and followed.

"Vell, it vas good vhile it lasted!" He stood up and stretched then BAMFED. *cough cough*

"I don't think I should, I'm feeling queezy." Jubilee said holding her stomach, Kitty nodded.

"TV withdrawal, so common, so sad." Amara's evil grin re-appeared.

"You wanna go find another one?" Kitty smiled.

"That is such like a great idea! But who has one?"

"Jean,"

"Fine then, TO JEAN'S ROOM!"
