Queen of Random: Hello, everyone! Thanks to all of those who have reviewed,
in particular my friend Ellie. It took you long enough to notice that this
fic was up! But now that it is, it is my solemn duty to continue with it.
I've really enjoyed reading your reviews, and I don't mind the suggestions I have been getting for this one, and for 'Beauty and the Beast'. Thanks if you have, and if you haven't, learn where the review button is!
Somebody mentioned in a review that it sounds as though Pietro and Petra are going to end up in bed, and other people have expressed the same concerns. That just made me laugh. I could just imagine that conversation.
(Petra, to Lana) "Lana. I'm pregnant."
(Lana, as the ground starts to shake) "What? Then, who's the father?"
(Petra, looking down at the ground) "I am."
(Lana, the ground shaking even more) "What? How is that even. . . eww!"
And then it turns out that Petra has twins, a girl and a boy, who look just like Pietro and Petra, both with white hair, and their names are. . . Pietro and Petra!
Anyway, I can neither confirm nor deny whether or not that sort of scenario will occur, although I can tell you that it is highly unlikely. I do, however, want your input. What do you think should happen if the Doppelgangers go out on the town? Who will end up with whom? Will Petra anger Pietro by bringing home more girls than he does? Who knows?
Before this chapter begins, here are the other names.
Charles Xavier / Professor X is also Charlotte Xavier / Doctor X
Logan / Wolverine is also Lois / Wildcat
Hank McCoy is also Henrietta McCoy / Animal
Ororo / Storm is also Orion / Hurricane
That's all. I'll stop blabbing now.
Role Reversal
Chapter Four: Mindless Teenage Chatter
Kurt and Katrin watched in admiration as their super-genius friends sorted through the pieces of their machines.
"And here is the. . . no, it's yours," said Forge. "Nice work on it, though."
"Thanks! Same goes for you. I found your one here," replied Form.
"I'm bored!" announced Petra.
"Me, too!" added Pietro.
"I want to go do something fun!"
"Like what?" asked Lana, exasperated. She knew that Petra was bad enough when she was bored, but add Pietro to the mix, and. . . well, you get the idea.
"Maybe we should go shopping?" suggested Kitty.
"That's a good idea," replied Scarlett. "Just one problem, though," she added, looking down at her uniform.
"I understand," said Scott, who had changed out of his uniform. All of the X-Men had changed back into their civilian clothes upon their arrival at the Institute.
The Brotherhood had, too, because Pietro had run back to their house to grab their clothes. Petra, because she was bored, had gone with him.
"I guess you guys can borrow some of our clothes," replied Kitty. "But, like, would they fit?"
"Well," said Petra, "why don't you and I-"
"PETRA! STOP THAT!"
"I was going to say that, since it appears that she is the one of the few girls closest to my size, that we take a look at her clothes. It would only be a loan, by the way," she added.
"Perhaps we should talk to the Professor about this," said Scott. "Maybe he would let us take you to get some of your own clothes, at the mall."
"All right," said Jean. "I can live with that."
"I can, too," added Grey.

"That is an excellent idea, Scott," said Xavier. He looked at Charlotte. "What do you think, Charlotte?"
"I agree, but I have to warn you, they can be a handful," Charlotte replied. "Oh, and Katrin? Don't forget to wear your image inducer."
"That's right!" exclaimed Kitty. "I want to see what you look like with it on!"
"All right," said Katrin. "As long as Kurt puts his on at the same time."
"Cool. Count from three, then on now?" asked Kurt.
Katrin nodded. "Sure."
"Drei, zwei, eins. Jetzt!"
The crowd of teenagers watched as the illusions that Kurt and Katrin wore when in the outside world. When the images had asserted themselves, Scott, Scarlett, Jean and Grey all started laughing.
"What's so funny?" asked Evan.
Katrin and Kurt turned and faced each other. When they saw each other, they, too, started laughing as well. "You look like I did when the Professor messed with my image inducer to stop me messing with it!"
"I remember that!" interrupted Scarlett. "It was just after I got back from Hawaii where I was visiting Alexandra!"
"And the two of you were caught in a giant storm, and Hurricane and I had to rescue you," reminded Grey.
"Yeah," said Scarlett meekly. "Sorry about that."
"You messed with your inducer, too?" asked Katrin, her voice filled with wonder.
"Yes," interrupted Kitty. "He made himself look all muscular. He was huge! Did you do that?"
Katrin looked down and did not answer. Instead, Carter said, "It was not her muscles that increased, let's just say that."
"Oh!"
"Anyway," said Lana, sensing that the situation way starting to get more than a bit weird. Although it was already weird, because the guys had become girls, and the girls had become guys. "I think we should all just do what they say, and get some normal clothes."
"Yeah, 'cause that fruit bowl is not the most stylish thing around," mocked Petra.
"And what's wrong with her helmet?" asked Lance angrily.
"Nothing," replied Pietro. He and Petra laughed.
"Those two are impossible," said Wanda. She looked around. "Where's Ward and Tonya? And Todd?"
No one knew.
*
Todd sighed as he stared out the window that overlooked the backyard of the Institute. He could see the silhouettes of Ward and Tonya as they walked through the garden. Well, Ward was walking, Tonya was hopping at his side.
"How come he likes her, and she doesn't like me?!" he asked himself angrily. "We're the same person, aren't we?!"
"No, you're not," said a quiet voice behind him.
Todd turned to se Form standing behind him. "Why not, yo?!"
"Because there are some things that are different between all of us. It's because there are just some major differences between males and females. Have you noticed how in our world we use the terms X-Women and Sisterhood? Well, it's because in our world, women have been the dominant gender for millennia. That's why it's acceptable in our world for older girls to date younger guys."
Todd looked at her curiously. "It is?"
"Sure!" said Form. "You'd fit right in! Of course, Wanda would be a guy then, and that wouldn't be so groovy for you."
"Yeah," replied Todd dejectedly.
Form clapped Todd on the back. "Why don't you come back? We're all about to go out to the mall, anyway. We need to get some clothes, because I don't know how long we're going to be stuck here."
Todd hopped down from his perch. "Okay. One thing though."
"Shoot."
"What's up with Petra? She seems, kind of weird, yo."
"Well," began Form, as she started to walk away, "I don't think she's bisexual, if that's what you're getting at. She just hits on girls for kicks."
"Yeah. I saw how she hit on every single one of the X-Men and the Brotherhood in the first five minutes she was here, yo."
"Well, if you think she's bad now, wait until she gets out in public!"
