Follow the Lunatics

"Got your life insurance paid up Pop?" Althea asked. "Cause once Storm realizes that we're following her on her date you are a dead man."

"Just shut up and let me drive!" Shipwreck snapped as he followed the limo with Ororo and her date. "Besides it ain't like we're the only ones checking her out!" He pointed to Jean's SUV that was following them.

"I don't think Jean's gonna be happy you stole her SUV," Kitty remarked. In the vehicle were Forge (Who was driving) Kitty, Kurt, Jubilee, Rogue, Roberto and Thornn.

"We're borrowing it, not stealing," Forge corrected. "Besides I think she'd be happy we took some responsibility in bringing the van back in one piece."

"I think she'd be happier if we brought her vehicle back in one piece," Kurt remarked. "Watch the road!"

"Hey do you want the van back or not?" Forge snapped.

"This isn't about the van," Kitty told him. "This is about your stupid crush on Storm!"

"I do not have a…" Forge began.

"Oh Pul-leez!" Jubilee interrupted. "Everybody in the entire mansion knows about it!"

"Ironically everybody except Storm," Roberto said. "Well she kind of knows about it but she's in denial."

"And that's why you're really doing this," Thornn remarked. "You'd blow up the stupid car just to get the dirt on Ororo and this Vlad guy. I still say he's kind of creepy."

"I thought he was nice," Kitty said.

"No offense Kitty but you're not exactly known for your good taste in guys," Thornn rolled her eyes. "So maybe we should check him out just to be safe."

"WHAT?" Kitty yelled. "DO YOU WANNA START SOMETHING?"

"Hey can we can the cat fights until we at least get through this evening?" Forge snapped. "Although for the record Kitty you have to admit you haven't exactly been batting a thousand lately in that department."

"That's for sure," Rogue groaned.

"Gives me a headache just thinking about it," Kurt moaned.

"Can we forget about my love life for now and focus on Storm's?" Kitty asked in an icy tone. "I still can't believe we're doing this!"

"At least we're getting out of the mansion and away from the adults," Rogue told her.

"Not that far," Roberto pointed out. "Some of them are following us in Scott's car."

Behind them was Scott driving his car. Jean was in the front seat with him. "Those maniacs are so dead!" Jean grumbled. "If they so much as scratch my SUV…"

"I'm more worried about them wrecking Ororo's date," Scott said.

"Oh yeah wouldn't that be a tragedy," Hank drawled sarcastically.

"Hey you got no one to blame but yourself," Roadblock told him. "If you made your move that dude wouldn't have gotten into the groove. You had your chance at romance."

"Do you ever not rhyme?" Hank asked.

"Some of the time," Roadblock answered.

"Aggh!" Hank groaned in exasperation.

"Oh shut up you two and put the petal to the metal!" Cover Girl snapped. She was sitting between the two in the back seat. "We're losing them!"

"I wish we'd lose them," Roadblock jerked a thumb behind him.

Riding on two motorcycles behind Scott's car were Low Light, Logan and John (In the passenger's side car in the second motorcycle.) "So let me get this straight," John shouted. "We're following Hank and his group who are following the X-Kids who are following Shipwreck and the Misfits who are following Ororo and her date."

"Yup," Logan told him.

"And it's pretty obvious why Shipwreck is following Ororo," Low Light said.

"And of course our kids have to follow the Misfits so that they won't cause trouble," John said. "And Scott's following the X-Kids to make sure they don't cause any trouble! Not to mention make sure Jean's ride isn't wrecked. So why are we following them?"

"Beats watching TV," Low Light told him. "I guess Charlie feels the same way!"

Behind them was Xavier's limo. "Why am I even doing this?" Xavier sighed as he rode in the back seat. "Oh yes, in case they all get into real trouble and I have to erase more minds. Or pay the bail money."

"Oh come on Professor!" Tabitha squealed with glee as she drove the limo. "This is gonna be wild!"

"Tabitha please slow down!" Xavier clenched his hands onto the door handle.

"Can't Big Daddy X," Tabitha told him. "There's this jerk on a motorcycle riding my tail!" She honked the horn. "Hey! Watch the road you creep!"

"Why did I let her drive?" Xavier groaned.

Behind them the maniac on the motorcycle passed them and nearly collided with the other vehicles. "What the devil is that guy doing?" Logan growled.

"Hey watch it!" Scott shouted as the motorcycle took off his mirror as it passed. "My car!"

"Geeze some people are so pushy!" Forge grumbled as the motorcycle passed them. He honked the horn.

"Watch it buddy!" Shipwreck honked the horn not letting the motorcycle pass.

"There seems to be a lot of traffic tonight," Dracula mused as he heard the horns from inside his limo.

"A little too much traffic!" Ororo growled as she looked out the window. "I should have known! Well that's a problem that can't be taken care off!" She created a dense fog that nearly caused the vehicles to crash into one another.

"Aw man we lost them!" Forge groaned as the strange motorcycle finally got by Shipwreck. "Well at least we lost that guy on the motorcycle too!"

"Nice trick," Dracula nodded.

"Thank you. It really doesn't bother you that I'm a mutant?" Ororo asked.

"Don't worry," Dracula grinned. "I am a man of the world. Mutants are not a problem for me. Nutcases with wooden stakes are another story…" He realized Ororo had a puzzled look on his face. "Uh, where I come from it's the equivalent of a drive by shooting. Reinfield! Step on it!"
