CHAPTER 7
Revelation of Crushes and Karaoke
Kitty slowly woke up, her eyes were blurry and everything she could see was covered mostly in darkness.
She was in a small room of some sort. There were windows all around her and shadowy figures in the room with her but she wasn't sure if they were people or not because they hadn't moved sense she'd opened her eyes.
She could faintly smell gasoline and her arm brushed up against cold metal that felt like a buckle.
She put the pieces together and realized that she must be in a car.
"Huh? What's going on?" She asked sleepily. She rubbed the back of her neck when she felt a pain in it like she had been sleeping on it wrong.
She was squinting her eyes to adjust them to the darkness and knew that the figures in the car with her that were huddled up and not moving all flinched when they heard her voice.
She sat up in front of the window and rubbed her neck again.
"Where is every." She was cut off by someone tackling her down to the floor of the car, which was missing all its seats and the buckles were piled on the floor where she was laying before.
She let out a scream and struggled against who ever it was that was holding her down to the ground.
"Put a sock in it Pryde. They'll hear you!" The person on top of her said harshly. She could tell it was a male because of his voice but she didn't know who.
She then realized that he was lying on top of her.
"Hey, get off of me you-" Her insult was muffled by the boy putting his hand over her mouth and not moving it so she couldn't talk.
"Look Pryde, Its me, Pietro alright. So just calm down. We're hiding from the anti-mutant people that are after us at the moment and are most likely right outside the car so if you'd just SHUT UP maybe they'll leave and go look somewhere else." The boy hissed.
"It looks as if they've gone. There aren't any men in sight and the cars have all left." Colossus announced in a normal volume.
"Finally." Rogue said, relieved that she could finally breathe. Ya'll were startin ta crush meh." Rogue told the boys as she sat up from her small, crouched hiding place.
"Bout time." John groaned, getting up from under the drivers seat, which besides the passengers seat next to it, was the only chair left in the car they were in.
They pushed a button in the front of the car and the lights came on in the back.
Kitty squinted, adjusting her eyes to the light when she noticed a silver haired boy practically laying
"Mrmphlm" She mumbled through his hand.
"What?" He asked, even though she couldn't answer.
She bit down hard on his hand until he jerked his palm away from her face.
"OW! That hurt!" Pietro exclaimed.
Kitty stuck out her tongue as if she were spitting out the horrible taste of Pietro.
"Pleh! Ugh! That was like so disgusting." She grimaced.
"What the hell were you trying to say anyways?" The speed demon asked, nursing his hand.
"I was trying to say if your don't move your hand I'm going to bite it." She shot back.
"Alright Kiddies, lets not start anymore fights. We've got enough of them as it is." Pyro said, stepping in between the two of them.
Colossus stared at the other three mutants. Things were getting desperate when Pyro was being the level headed one.
"Rogue like what's going on?" Kitty asked her roommate, who was fiddling with the channels on the car radio.
"We're just hidin out here until Gambit gets back with some working transportation and a place we can hold up in until we can get in contact with the Prof." Rogue explained.
"That is if that damn Cajun decides to grace us with his presence. It's been two hours and he said he'd be back in one and a half." Rogue grumbled.
"What could be taking him? You don't think he was caught by one of those men with the guns do you?" Kitty asked the closest person to her, which happened to be Pietro.
"Hm.could be. But hey better him then us right?" Quick Silver replied.
She elbowed him in the ribs harshly.
"Hey! What was that for?" He asked, annoyed at the bruises that were going to show up because of some dumb little Valley girl. Of all the giant metal mutants in the world his father had to go and blackmail the one that didn't allow men to hit girls. Just his luck.
"For being a jerk. You don't even care about Gambit!" Kitty yelled at him.
"Sure I do. I just care about me more." He said arrogantly. It wasn't exactly true but he just loved ticking her off, and if he couldn't hit her back then annoying her would have to do.
"See? This is what I'm talking about!" Kitty told him.
"Relax Sheila. Remy's your man when it comes to stealth and sneakiness and all that. I'm sure the mate's just getting us a ride and he got caught up in traffic or something." John assured her, climbing into the front seat with Rogue.
"Stay on your side. I'll stay on mine." She said in a commanding fashion. Rogue was in the drivers seat, still messing with the radio, trying to get a clear station.
"That is unless he comes in contact with his one weakness." John continued to Kitty, ignoring Rogue.
"And that would be?" Kitty asked.
"What else? Shielas of course." John answered with a grin on his face.
"I hate to say it but the fire freak's got a point. Gambit can be really good at what he does.but once he sees a girl his mission is her, not whatever it is he was supposed to be doing." Pietro commented.
"But as long as Remy doesn't see a single Sheila on his way then we're fine." John added.
"We're doomed." Rogue said, looking out the window and seeing a marching band go by with a long line of nice cars that had banners on the sides saying 'Miss Bayville competitors Parade.' And a long line of girls walked by and just kept on going and going and going.
"Sweet!" John remarked, sticking his head out the window to gawk at the girls.
"Move outta the way Pyro, I wanna look." Pietro said, pushing the red- haired boy out of the way and into Rogue's lap.
John looked up at her and smiled sheepishly as she shot daggers at him in her death glare.
"Right. Right. I know Sheila. Stay on your own side." He told her, trying to make the situation seem calmer.
"OFF!" She shouted at him.
He jumped off her and onto his own seat as she continued to move around the dial on the radio.

"Where do you think they are?" Jean asked Hank.
"I don't know. I'm sure Logan is taking precautions to get them both home safely which is why they are late." Hank guessed.
"Yeah, I hope so." The red head said, looking worried.
Logan was supposed to be home with the girls forty minutes ago but his bike was nowhere in site.
Jubilee sat with her leg propped up on a pillow and a chair talking to Bobby about something, Kurt and Evan were playing a video game, Tabby was sitting with Amara by the fireplace reading magazines and Scott was talking with the Professor, facing the window.
"Man, what's taking them so long? It's really starting to poor outside." Tabby asked her friend.
Amara hadn't heard them though. She was too wrapped up in her thoughts. She had been dozing off, staring into the fiery flames in the hearth and her thoughts had wandered to one of the events that day.
~Flash Back~
"Okay this is the last time I offer. The party is gonna be the best." He said.
"I already told you no, now please leave before." Amara trailed off. She couldn't use her powers in public and she couldn't cause a scene because it would attract unwanted attention that she really didn't need right now.
"Before what little girl?" He asked, getting closer.
"Before her boyfriend turns around and gets angry." John said, snaking his arm around Amara's waist and pulling her over to him.
....
Thanks for that." Amara said to her savior quietly.
"No problem Sheila. Just doin my part for society and all that." He said.
"Um.my names Amara. Not Sheila." She corrected him.
He laughed and grinned down at her. "I'm from Australia Amara. Down under we like to call girls sheilas. Its like slang I guess." He explained.
"And my names John by the way." He added.
...
She took a paper towel and wiped off his shirt. She stopped when she got to his chest. He was wet so his body was outlined and his features were more clear.
"Oh.sorry." She said, pulling away from him and turning red in the cheeks.
~END FLASH BACK~
"Amara?.Amara?.AMARA!?"
Amara was pulled out of her line of flashbacks when she heard her name being called out.
She snapped out of her trance and found Tabby in front of her with a curious look.
"Huh?" Amara asked, a little dazed.
"I said, why are you smiling like that? You're blushing too. What's up with you?" Tabby asked.
Amara's hand went to her face and she touched it gently where she was blushing.
"I didn't realize I was." She answered truthfully.
"So what were you thinking about in your little world away from reality?" Tabby asked curiously, tossing aside the magazine in her hands.
"Oh nothing, just.you know. Stuff." Amara answered, sighing without knowing it.
"OH MY GOD!" Tabby screamed, jumping to her feet, her eyes widening. The others in the room looked over at her curiously.
"What? What?" Amara asked frantically.
Tabby's huge eyes now had a huge grin to go with them.
"What is it?" Amara asked again, noticing that the blonde had drawn the attention of all the other mutants in the room.
"YOU MET A GUY!" Tabby exclaimed, the volume of her voice increasing extremely.
Amara's eyes widened when she heard the words come out of her friend's mouth. She was definitely not expecting for her to shout that across the room.
"No.no I didn't." Amara replied quickly, blushing a deep red in her cheeks.
"Ha! I knew it! I knew you met a guy. You're blushing just thinking about it." Tabby shot back, pointing and accusing finger at her friend, her smile reaching from ear to ear.
"Tabbitha please!" Amara pleaded as the other girl blabbed her secret.
"But who could it be? Oh my god, is it one of the X-boys?" Tabby asked, excitedly.
Jubilee stared in shock at Tabby's accusation, her eyes shifting from Bobby to Amara worriedly.
The boys all froze and paled before flushing red and staring at Amara, who they'd always seen as a little sister, and nothing more.
"NO!" Amara almost yelled at the accusation.
"So there is someone then? Just not one of them." Tabby noted.
Amara scowled at the other girl. She'd tricked her into a partial confession.
All the boy's sighed in relief and continued to follow the conversation of the two girls as the others in the room were doing. They'd all forgotten about what they were doing or talking about by now and were watching Amara and Tabby with slight amusement.
"So who is it?" Tabby asked.
"It's no one." Amara said, standing to her feet and brushing off her jeans.
"Now if you'll all excuse me I think I'll go take a shower while I can before someone else grabs it." She said, exiting the room.
Everyone was quiet for a moment but then went back to doing what they were doing before Tabbitha's outburst.
"I'm gonna find out eventually." Tabbitha called to her friend, picking up a magazine and plopping down in front of the fireplace once more.

".It's my party and I'll cry if I want to."
John sang along to all the switching songs that were on the radio as Rogue switched the station every few seconds, looking for decent song or news report.
*Click*
".And we should be expecting some heavy thunderstorms coming from the Bayville area."
Rogue listened to the weather for a moment, thankful that she had come across a channel that didn't have a song that John knew the lyrics to, which was apparently every song that had come on.
".Don't tell my heart. My achy breaky heart. I just don't think he'd understand..."
Pietro, Rogue and Kitty all groaned when the weather report was over and another song came on that, surprise, surprise, John knew the lyrics to.
"Where the hell is that Swamp Rat?" Rogue asked.
Pietro was banging his head on the back of the drivers seat in an attempt to knock himself out and end the misery.
"Oh no you don't. You'd be leaving us here to deal with him." Kitty scolded.
Rogue clicked the station to a different one a few times and gave up when all she got was static and talk of mutant havoc in the neighboring city of Bayville.
"The radio's all yours Pyro." Rogue said in defeat.
Pyro's eyes lit up as he took control of the car radio.
Rogue turned back to the back of the car and was met by Kitty and Pietro
"Hey why isn't the Metal man going crazy like the rest of us?" Rogue asked.
The other two turned toward Piotr at Rogue's question.
"Hey big guy? Why haven't you cracked like the rest of us?" Pietro asked.
No answer.
"Hello?" Pietro asked.
"Colossus? Earth to Colossus! Come in Colossus!" Pietro said, waving his arms in front of the Russian who was staring straight ahead.
Colossus stared at Pietro as if he were nuts and then held up his index finger as if to say hold on a minute.
Pietro did and the taller mutant reached up to his ears and pulled out two earplugs that were stuffed into his ears.
"Did you say something Quick Silver?" Colossus questioned.
Rogue and Kitty held back their laughter and smirked at the Russian's use of earplugs.
"Never mind." Pietro mumbled grumpily.
Piotr shrugged and looked over at the girls for answers.
"We were like wondering why you hadn't strangled Pyro yet from the singing." Kitty answered without him saying anything.
"Ah, yes. Well when one lives with John then you usually get to know him and what he is capable of and likely to do." He answered.
"Ah don't suppose you'd have any more of those plugs on ya would ya?" Rogue asked hopefully.
"No. Sorry." Piotr apologized.
That's okay. Its not like that bad." Kitty said.
".Hit me baby one more time." John sang out loudly.
Piotr winced at the new song his friend chose on the radio and held up his plugs.
"Sorry girls, its every man for himself." He said, shoving the earplugs back in his ears.
Pietro and Kitty both moaned loudly at the other boy's singing.
Rogue merely sighed in exasperation. "Okay Ah really don't need ya pyromaniac, creepy, psychopath thoughts in mah head but Ah swear if ya sing one more word of that song Ah'll suck ya dry." Rogue threatened, removing her left glove.
Pietro and Kitty both backed up and Piotr raised his eyebrow, not hearing what she had said.
John gulped loudly and turned the radio to a station where a Korn song was playing and sat there quietly.
"Thank ya." Rogue said, putting her glove back on and leaning back in the drivers seat.

"Okay I'm really starting to get worried. Where could they be?" Jean asked Scott.
"Don't worry Jean. I'm sure everything is under control. I mean come on, they're both with Logan and its not like he's about to let anything happen to them." Scott answered.
"But."Jean started but was silenced when Scott kissed her on the lips.
"Don't panic." He said simply, releasing from the kiss.
"Hello? Where the hell is everybody?"
They all turned their heads to the communicator's main radio when they heard Logan's very annoyed voice.
"Professor! Logan's on the radio." Jean called.
Xavier rolled into the room, followed by Hank and Orroro.
"Logan? Logan where are you?" Xavier asked through the radio.
"Hello? Can anyone hear this? Damn transmitter. What a piece of crap." Logan said into the radio.
"Logan? Logan!" Xavier said loudly through the static.
"Its not use Charles. It's raining too heavily." Storm told him. "And I cannot do anything about the weather where he is if I do not know where he is exactly." She added.
"Can you not just contact him telepathically?" Hank asked the older man.
"I've already tried. Where ever he is right now it's too far away for me to reach him that way." Xavier answered.
"Can we panic now?" Jean turned to her boyfriend.
"No. As long as they're all together they'll be fine." Scott said with confidence.
"Well if someone can hear me then I just called to tell you that I'm riding after the Acolytes a few counties away. The army showed up and they had to split with Half Pint and Rogue. I could use a little back up if you know what I mean. I'm in Catonstown now and I've lost them. Just send one group. No more. We've already lost two and." Logan's voice was overcome by static and interference.
All the X-men stared blankly at the radio.
"Scott?" Jean asked.
"Yeah Jean?" He answered.
"Can we panic yet?" She asked.
"Yeah Jean. Now we can panic."
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
"Um.does anyone else like hear that?" Kitty asked.
"Its an engine. Maybe Gambit's here." Rogue mused.
"No do not open the car door. If it is Gambit he will give us the signal." Piotr said, stopping the valley girl from opening the door.
"Well what's thah signal?" Rogue asked impatiently.
as if to answer her, a horn honked five times in the same beat.
"That." Pietro said, lifting Kitty to her feet and she put he arm around his neck.
"Don't get used to this Pryde." He told her.
"Don't worry, I won't." She retorted, staying silent otherwise.
"Come on Brittany Spears." Rogue said, yanking the Aussie by the collar. "Our transportation is here."
After they were all outside they gaped at what was in front of them. There sat Remy with a particularly large smile on his face as he sat in the driver's seat of a rather large bus/trailer.

"Ah, yes. Well when one lives with John then you usually get to know him and what he is capable of and likely to do." He answered.
"Ah don't suppose you'd have any more of those plugs on ya would ya?" Rogue asked hopefully.
"No. Sorry." Piotr apologized.
That's okay. Its not like that bad." Kitty said.
".Hit me baby one more time." John sang out loudly.
Piotr winced at the new song his friend chose on the radio and held up his plugs.
"Sorry girls, its every man for himself." He said, shoving the earplugs back in his ears.
Pietro and Kitty both moaned loudly at the other boy's singing.
Rogue merely sighed in exasperation. "Okay Ah really don't need ya pyromaniac, creepy, psychopath thoughts in mah head but Ah swear if ya sing one more word of that song Ah'll suck ya dry." Rogue threatened, removing her left glove.
Pietro and Kitty both backed up and Piotr raised his eyebrow, not hearing what she had said.
John gulped loudly and turned the radio to a station where a Korn song was playing and sat there quietly.
"Thank ya." Rogue said, putting her glove back on and leaning back in the drivers seat.

"Okay I'm really starting to get worried. Where could they be?" Jean asked Scott.
"Don't worry Jean. I'm sure everything is under control. I mean come on, they're both with Logan and its not like he's about to let anything happen to them." Scott answered.
"But."Jean started but was silenced when Scott kissed her on the lips.
"Don't panic." He said simply, releasing from the kiss.
"Hello? Where the hell is everybody?"
They all turned their heads to the communicator's main radio when they heard Logan's very annoyed voice.
"Professor! Logan's on the radio." Jean called.
Xavier rolled into the room, followed by Hank and Orroro.
"Logan? Logan where are you?" Xavier asked through the radio.
"Hello? Can anyone hear this? Damn transmitter. What a piece of crap." Logan said into the radio.
"Logan? Logan!" Xavier said loudly through the static.
"Its not use Charles. It's raining too heavily." Storm told him. "And I cannot do anything about the weather where he is if I do not know where he is exactly." She added.
"Can you not just contact him telepathically?" Hank asked the older man.
"I've already tried. Where ever he is right now it's too far away for me to reach him that way." Xavier answered.
"Can we panic now?" Jean turned to her boyfriend.
"No. As long as they're all together they'll be fine." Scott said with confidence.
"Well if someone can hear me then I just called to tell you that I'm riding after the Acolytes a few counties away. The army showed up and they had to split with Half Pint and Rogue. I could use a little back up if you know what I mean. I'm in Catonstown now and I've lost them. Just send one group. No more. We've already lost two and." Logan's voice was overcome by static and interference.
All the X-men stared blankly at the radio.
"Scott?" Jean asked.
"Yeah Jean?" He answered.
"Can we panic yet?" She asked.
"Yeah Jean. Now we can panic."

"Um.does anyone else like hear that?" Kitty asked.
"Its an engine. Maybe Gambit's here." Rogue mused.
"No do not open the car door. If it is Gambit he will give us the signal." Piotr said, stopping the valley girl from opening the door.
"Well what's thah signal?" Rogue asked impatiently.
as if to answer her, a horn honked five times in the same beat.
"That." Pietro said, lifting Kitty to her feet and she put he arm around his neck.
"Don't get used to this Pryde." He told her.
"Don't worry, I won't." She retorted, staying silent otherwise.
"Come on Brittany Spears." Rogue said, yanking the Aussie by the collar. "Our transportation is here."
After they were all outside they gaped at what was in front of them. There sat Remy with a particularly large smile on his face as he sat in the driver's seat of a rather large bus/trailer.
