Disclaimer: " Well, Neal's head comes to a point." Anyone who thinks I own
the x-men characters also have heads that come to points. I'm simply
borrowing the acolytes for a little while, they will be returned to Marvel
in one piece when I'm done with them.
Here's the next chapter, enjoy!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Nothing was more satisfying to Pyro than watching the fire department rescue Colossus from his play equipment prison. What would he have told Magneto if they hadn't come? He would have never been trusted with them ever again! Oooh, that wouldn't be good for his wallet; no extra babysitting money? "Let's not perish at the thought," Pyro told himself. He started thinking to himself when one of the firemen walked up beside him.
"How did you say this happened?"
"What happened," Pyro asked.
"How did your friend manage to get stuck in this slide? He's a little old to be going down a slide."
"Gambit told him not to go," the Cajun wailed, coming to Pyro's other side, " But," Pyro clamped his arm around Remy as he butted in.
" But he wanted to save a kitten," Pyro told him, " Right, Remy?"
Gambit gave Pyro a confused look before asking, " What kitten? Gambit doesn't remember any kitten. Piotr wanted," Pyro elbowed him, shutting Gambit up.
"I'm confused," the fireman told him, " Was there a kitten or wasn't there?"
"There was," Pyro exclaimed, giving Remy a dirty look before continuing. "His niece just got a kitten for her birthday and decided to take it for a walk.the cat escaped and, and um, ran up the slide. Piotr, good uncle that he is, followed the kitten but unfortunately got stuck."
"So, where's his niece and the cat," the fireman asked.
" Well, after trapping the kitten, his niece was able to retrieve it and went home," Pyro replied. 'Please let him buy it,' Pyro silently prayed. The fireman looked at him for a while, unsure of how to respond. He then shrugged and went to check on how the others were doing freeing the man.
They did eventually get Colossus out, not too much the worse for the wear. " Next time you go chasing a kitten make sure you can fit," the fireman told him.
The Russian stared at him, " What kitten," he asked.
"The one you tried to rescue."
" I didn't rescue any kitten. I wanted to go down."
"Colossus," Pyro exclaimed, " I'm so glad you're all right!"
"What kitten is he talking about," Colossus asked.
"Oh dear, you must have bumped your head; jogged your memory. We'd better get you home." He turned toward the firemen. "Thank you so much."
"What are you talking about, Pyro," Colossus asked. "Don't you want to find your muse?"
"Ix-nay on the use-may," John told him.
"But."
"I'll talk to you about it later. Now let's get going. Gambit, are you coming?"
"Oui," Gambit exclaimed, running after them. "Wait for Gambit!" They stopped walking in order to let the Cajun catch up. "Now are we going to the mall?"
"Yes, Gambit," Pyro told him, starting to walk again.
"Can we stop at Bath and Body," Gambit asked. Pyro stopped dead in his tracks and turned to face the Cajun, "Where?"
"Bath and Body. Gambit wants to pick up some lotion for his poor hands."
"We are NOT going to Bath and Body to pick up some smelly lotion for your girly hands! We are going to find me a muse!"
"How come you get everything," Gambit pouted.
" 'Cause Magneto likes me best," Pyro stuck out his tongue.
"You lie," Gambit exclaimed.
"Wanna bet? Now let's get going, I wanna get home before dinner."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
What do ya think? Will Pyro find his muse? Will Gambit buy his lotion? What does Colossus want? Maybe some of these answers will be revealed in the next chapter. I'll try to get it out soon. Don't forget to review. Until next time, Bye!
