Aloo all, many of you asked why Xavier said he was bald when, in fact, he has hair. Well, he did have a nasty fall....
Todd: Translation:, Todd Fan forgot. She has the short-term memory of a goldfish.
Oh gee, thanks, Todd, you'll pay for that one! Anyway, this chapter is dedicated to my little brother, who had his 11th birthday yesterday. *Grins* Todd Fan got to ride in a limo....a limo full of screaming kids, but a limo, none-the-less.
Rurouni Tyriel - Mmmm, well, I think X23 should listen to those lovely hormones. Go get Rocky, girl!
The Uncanny R-Man - As with Kelly torture, I NEVER say 'no' to Jean torture. Oooh and biker chick Rahne is SO much fun!
BaronOBeefDip - Yes, I think I can arrange Kurt getting trapped in a window
Dragonic Soul - The Spork is there because Pyro is afraid of them ;D
Draco-luver - Wow, more requests for a stuck Kurt. More senile Warren is yours. *Perks up ears* Did you say the 'V' word? I think you did!
Shanie S - The flaming dancing wombat is back!
Taineyah - Why yes, yes I can do something cruel to Spider-Man

"I SAID I was sorry".
"Harump", replied Forge as he and Storm walked down the street, heading to the nearest hairdresser.
"I would have thought you'd like it", she said, "you know...pink and the seventies stuff?"
"No one, and I repeat, no one touches my hair", said Forge moodily, crossing his arms...at least he'd got his bionic arm back, "let alone make it look stupid by colouring it"
Storm paused.
"And it doesn't look stupid with that hat on it?".
Forge blinked. What was wrong with his gold sequin hat? He'd worn it all the time in the 70's, the chicks dug it.
"This is the only hat I have", he said.
"Then you need a new hat", said Storm as they entered the hairdressers.
"Helooooooooooooooooooo!", said a barber dancing over to them, "how can I help you? Does this beautifull woman want something? We can do lots and lots!"
"Actually, I nee...", started Forge.
"I'll have a mohican!", said Storm suddenly, cutting him off. [1]
"What?", said Forge, blinking at her.
"I always wanted one", said Storm with a shrug as the barber led her off.
"But...", said Forge, sighing defeatedly and sitting down, "what about my hair?"

Pyro sighed sadly as he leaned against the wall of the institute, keeping his flaming wombat alive.
"You're my only friend now, Wommie", he said as the wombat danced around him.
"Pyro, are you goning to help us or not?!", snapped Remy.
Pyro glanced up watching Remy try to pull Kurt out of the kitchen window of the Institute, while Freddy pushed on the other side. Apparently, Kurt had been trying to dispose of all of his milkshakes through the window, leaned out a little too far and managed to get himself trapped.
"I can smoke him out", the Aussie offered.
"NEIN!!", squealed Kurt, trying to struggle out of the door.
"Why don't you just 'port?", asked Freddy...it was a little unnerving pushing someone larger than himself.
"I'm too big", cried Kurt, "it's too much veight to carry!"
"You are SO going on a diet after this, mon ami", muttered Remy.

Meanwhile, many, many miles away, Scott and Jean were in Vegas...okay, so they'd gone to the conviently close casino in the next town, but still..the effect was there.
"It's this the BEST idea, Jean?", asked Scott, leaning over a roulette table....he paused, glancing around when he got no reply, "Jean?...Jean?"
Jean wasn't really all that far away...she was in the kitchens...washing dishes.
"But my boyfriend's here", she protested to the chef, "he'll pay for my meal, honest!"
"Until he comes, you wash dishes", snapped the chef, "wash them 'till they sparkle! SPARKLE!"
"Okay, okay, I got it, sparkle", said Jean, muttering under her breath as she continued to work off her tab. That was the last time SHE'D eat lobster in a fancy resteraunt.

"And then I decided to have my own set of statues, they were really nice".
Kitty sighed happily as Apocalypse drawled on.
"There has GOT to be a way to make Kitty see what a loser he is", said Lance, "what do you think?"
"I think we should get ourselves a hotel room for the night, Hot-Stuff"
Lance blinked...that wasn't what he'd expected Stuart's reply to be. He slowly turned around to see X23 grinning at him.
"....Did you just say....", he stammered, then blinked, "but Kitty..."
"Aww, she's making goo-goo eyes over the mummy-man", said X23, smiling coyly "I bet we could make her REALLY jealous, she'll come crawling back to you".
Lance blinked again.
"And you're not interested in me...emotionally?"
"HELL NO!", said X23, "but I'm up for a good time"
With that, she dragged him past Kitty and Appocalypse's table, giggling slightly. Kitty glanced up frowning as they left.
"Where's he going?"
"To quote the young people of today", said Mesmero from the floor, "they are going to 'Get Jiggy With It'"
"WHAT??!!!", snapped Kitty.

Elsewhere, Rahne had been inspired by Sam's decsion to 'let things go'. And so, using her new 'look' to her advantage, she'd rented herself a morotcycle and some gear, and had taken to tearing along the streets of Bayville.
"Wahoooooo!", she screamed, "out of the way, loooosers!"
She laughed manically, speeding past Warren as he walked along the road....apparently, she didn't notice the fact that she was trailing a familiar webbing, attached to a familiar photographer on her back spoke.
"Help meeeeee", shouted Peter as he was dragged past Warren.
"Damn whipper-snappers!", snapped Warren, shaking his fist, "trying to take over the whole road! Why don't you get yourselves inroled into a youth programe?!!"

[1] - Storm went for a period in the comics when she had her hair in a mohican, ironically, it's what she was wearing when she first met Forge.
And there is another chapter done and dusted! Do send in lots of those lovely requests. Until next time...
