I do not own X-men: Evolution.
Chapter 5
"C'mon! We gotta get a move out if we want to get to Hershey in time." Rogue yelled up the stairs to the remaining people. Lance tiredly stumbled down the stairs. Kurt bamfed in and yawned.
"Is this everybody?" Lance asked tiredly.
"Yeah, like John is allergic to Chocolate, and Wanda refused to get up this early. Pietro said that him and Tabby had some sort of business in town." Rogue looked at Kitty in shock.
"Business?" Kitty shrugged.
The group piled into Lance's jeep. Lance and Kitty sat in front, with Rogue, Kurt, and Remy in the back. Kitty hummed along happily with the radio, while Rogue watched the things on the high way pass. She soon drifted off to sleep.
About to hours later the group pulled up to the factory they were going to tour, before seeing the rest of the town. They piled out of the car. The main doors opened and a man that looked remarkably like Scott minus the visor.
"Welcome, are you ready for the tour?"
"Yeah, but where is everyone else?" Kurt asked happily. Rogue looked at the tour guide cautiously.
"Does anyone else think that this is a bit weird?" Rogue asked looking up at the colorful building.
"Dis looks like fun, chere." Remy said putting an arm around her shoulders, which she made no move remove.
"Ah'm tellin' y'all there's somethin' freaky goin' on here."
"C'mon, just enjoy the fun." Kitty said, turning her head to the side slightly. "This place looks magical." She finished as she took a few steps and a skip to catch up with Lance. Rogue and Remy followed behind her.
"My name is William Wigglesworth, and I will be your tour guide for the first half of the tour and my partner Miranda Macclesfield will conduct the second half of the tour." The Scott looking man said turning around and walking backwards across the parking lot to address them.
"Kit, do you see how he looks lahk Scott?" Rogue whispered. Kitty looked the guide up and down.
"He, like, looks nothing like Scott." Rogue's mouth gaped. The resemblance was uncanny. In fact, if she didn't know any better, she would say that it was Scott.
"This building was is fairly new." William said opening the door. Inside the walls were bright colors and everything was decorated in plastic candy decals.
"This is fucking ridiculous."
"There is no swearing in the happy zone." William said with a bright smile, not unlike a Stefford wife. He breathed in deep and moved his arms in an almost yoga move and closed his eyes. He released the breathe. "You must respect the rules of the happy zone." He said. Then his eyes popped back open and he smiled again. The strange thing, though, according to Rogue was the fact that non of her companions seemed to think his behavior was strange, when she wanted to take off running.
"What is with this place?" She asked herself under her breath.
"If you respect all the rules and if you are good the whole tour, Miranda will give you a nice chocolate-e treat." Everyone yelled in a simultaneous, "Yay" and jumped up and down and clapped, even Remy. William walked across the room to a big set of double doors that Rogue could swear wasn't there before. He opened them both, and behind him was a room with the sunlight shining in on what appeared to be candy everything.
"That has got ta be breakin' like hundreds of health codes." Rogue said to Kurt, before she saw the glazed look on his face. She saw him take a running leap into some type of marshmallow candy.
"Lance, look sour straws." Kitty said, putting one end in her mouth and holding the other end of for Lance who then put his mouth on the other. They ate until they met in the middle and kissed. "Let's, like, do that again." She said taking his hand as they both ran to the sour straws. Rogue looked on with disgust. What the hell was going on? She took a deep breath and turned to look at Remy.
"Please tell me, ya see somethin' wrong with this picture." She pleaded with him, but was shocked to see his face. His eyes looked like they were going to tear up.
"Remy love dis place, chere." He grabbed her hand and tried to drag her to a giant gobstopper. He licked one side. Rogue moved her eyes to all her friends. Kitty was making out with Lance in a bed of sour straws, and Kurt was eating himself out of some type of yellow marsh mallow. "Remy needs help. He wants another flavor." He told her quickly, before returning to lick the gobstopper furiously. Rogue walked away from Remy and towards William.
"Uhhh.. Excuse me, but I thought that the Hershey factory was known for chocolate."
"Why that is an excellent question, Rogue? We will see the chocolate next." William said with a huge smile, ignoring Rogue's look of shock.
"How the HELL did you know mah name?" William's bright smile faded as everyone gasped.
"Chere, you're not supposed ta swear in da happy zone." Rogue started laughing.
"Happy zone...? HAPPY ZONE? This place is completely fuck..." She trailed off when she heard another collective gasp.
"Schwester, if you don't calm down, you won't get a chocolate-e treat." Kurt said still covered in marshmallow goo. "This place is a dream come true."
"Give me a break, Kurt. This place is Pietro's wet dream." She jumped, when she heard William clap.
"Well, righty-o, how about we see the chocolate." William skipped as he lead the group to the next stop on the tour. Rogue took a deep breath and followed. He pushed some fruit roll-up plants out of the way and there was a river of chocolate. Kurt's eyes went humongous. He walked to the river as if in a trance.
"Must have chocolate." He said in a hushed voice as he dove for the bank of the river. William caught him.
"I'm sorry, dude, but we can't have you contaminating the chocolate." Kurt whimpered still staring at the river. "Ok now we will go to the next stage of the tour." William said letting go of Kurt, who instantly dove into the river.
"Kurt, like, you need to get out of there." Kitty said tipping her head to one side.
"Yeah, you won't get a chocolate-e treat at the end of the tour." Lance said with his arm around Kitty's shoulder.
"Do not vorry, Lance and Katchen, I have all the chocolate-e goodness I need." Kurt said diving again.
"Sir, Sir, you need to get out of there." William said with a smile. Kurt dived down again drinking the chocolate as he went.
"Kurt, get outa there!" Rogue yelled at him, when Kurt didn't come back up. Rogue started to get worried. "Kurt! Kurt!" She heard a knocking. She glanced up to a thick clear plastic tube. Kurt smiled and waved, and then was sucked up the tube and dissappeared. William clapped his hands once.
"The next stop on our tour." Rogue looked at him like he were crazy.
"What?!?!? Where's mah brother?" William smiled and tipped his head to one side.
"He is either being made into chocolate bars, or he is at the lost and found. Miranda will take you there at the end of the tour."
"Chocolate bars...? I want to find Kurt now."
"Pish-posh, he is fine. Now the next stop."
"Ah have no idea what Ah ever saw in him." Rogue mumbled under her breath. "Kitty, you're not worried about Kurt? He is your best friend."
"Aw, c'mon, Rogue, we can trust William... he wouldn't let Kurt get hurt."
"Argh!" Rogue screamed slightly, everybody looked at her.
"I think someone needs to turn her frown upside down." William said cheerily. He stepped up to Rogue. "Hit it." A Disco ball came down from he ceiling and the lights went out. Rogue watched as the colorful lights danced around the room. A pair of doors burst open, and a guy who looked remarkably like Toad came out dressed in eighties rapper dreads and began to rap into a microphone. Remy, Kitty, and Lance ran right to the stage and started dancing. Kitty and Lance hit hips while Remy booty danced.
"Oh mah Gawd!" Rogue said, lip quivering. What the hell was the matter with this place? She watched as the rapper took the microphone away from his mouth and pointed it towards his "Audience" the three mutants began to sing.
"Thank you guys have been an excellent crowd, yo." The rapper said before disappearing.
"Chere, dat was awesome." Remy said passing Rogue on the way to follow William.
"Ah'm in hell." She said to herself running to catch up.
There next stop they ended up in a room were various machines dropped spurts of candy to be wrapped up by the next brightly colored machine. "This room is a our secret lab." Rogue heard the remaining three mutants "ooooohhh". "Here we are developing special chocolate that gives you the nutiritional value as your favorite five course meal."
"This seems awfully familiar." Rogue whispered to Remy.
"SHHHHHHH! Can Remy try William?"
"It hasn't been tested yet.... we have no idea what it might do." Remy's eyes got downcast. "C'mon, it's time for you to meet Miranda." The mutants began to leave, but Rogue turned around to see Remy looking at the machine. He hit the button titled Cajun, and a piece of chocolate came out.
"Remy don't." Rogue warned.
"Shhh... Chere, Remy don't wanna get in trouble." He said with a devilish smile before popping the piece of chocolate in his mouth.
"NO!" Rogue screamed. The other people turned around.
"Chere, this is wonderful. It tastes like Gumbo."
"Ew! Gumbo flavored chocolate." Remy kept chewing the candy.
"It's so good."
"Remy what's happenin' to you." Rogue said upon noticing, Remy gaining what and turning a red color.
"Remy don' know." William looked slightly nervous, when Remy's transformation was done and he looked like a giant red ball. Rogue turned to him.
"What's wrong with him?" Rogue demanded. She turned back towards Remy. "Remy, ya can't leave me alone here with Lance and Kitty. Ah'll lose mah damn mind." Lance and Kitty gasped. "Oh shut up!" She yelled at them. She walked up to Lance and smacked him. "You're Lance. You're a smart ass, you yell, you get angry." Rogue heard an alarm go off.
"If you don't calm down. You will get a time out." William said letting go of the button that sounded the alarm. His smile returned to his face. All of a sudden five 12 year old boys, who all looked like Jamie, an into the room. Rogue jumped in front of Remy.
"Ya can't have him!" She turned back around. "We'll take you to the institute, Remy. Maybe the Professor can help ya." One of boys stepped up beside Remy and gave him a slight push. Remy went rolling across the room to another boy, who repeated this treatment, until Remy rolled out the doors. "Where are you takin' him?" Rogue yelled.
"He's going to get juiced. Then.... You can pick him up at lost and found." William said with a huge smile. Rogue jumped for him, but Lance caught her.
"Rogue, don't you want your chocolate-e treat?" Lance asked with a smile. Rogue felt like she could cry. This was a nightmare. Kurt was gone. Remy was gone. Lance and Kitty were acting like idiots.
"Ah don't want ta eat chocolate ever again." Rogue mumbled following Kitty and Lance out of the room. Maybe Remy and Kurt were really OK and she'd see them at the end of the tour.
"This is Miranda, and she will conduct the rest of the tour." The red head whipped around, and the woman smiled brightly.
"That's it. Ah'm gettin' the hell outa here." Rogue said turning around to leave.
"You can't get out that way. You have to finish the tour." Rogue scowled at the woman.
"Fahne." Rogue said stepping up beside Kitty. "Don't ya think she looks lahk Jean?"
"No, silly. Jean is, like, at the institute. Are you sure you're feeling ok?"
"Am Ah feeling OK...? Kurt and Remy have disappeared. And we are stuck in some freaky candy dimension... and you're askin' me if Ah'm ok."
"Yeah." She said tipping her head. Rogue rolled her eyes.
"Let's just finish this so that we can get outa here."
"Why do you want to leave? This place is amazing." Lance asked her. Rogue just shook her head. William disappeared, and Miranda continued the tour.
"This is our special Easter department, where we make all our Easter candies." Miranda said.
"Cool." Kitty replied looking at the rabbits that were laying Chocolate eggs. Rogue looked at Miranda.
"Ah didn't know the Cadbury bunny worked for Hershey company." Miranda gave Rogue a slight cold glare, but soon her smile returned.
"These aren't Cadbury bunnies. They are Hershey Bunnies."
"Isn't that like plagiarism or somethin'?" Miranda's smile faltered once more.
"No." She said coldly. Then she smiled again.
"Oh Lance, I want one of those bunnies. Will you get me one of those bunnies?"
"Of course, sweetie." Lance told Kitty, kissing her forehead.
"Oh shit," rogue mumbled, glad that no one could hear her a gasp. "Kit, you don't want one of those. Trust me."
"Yes, I do, Rogue." Kitty said with a pout. She climbed up the wall with all the bunnies. "I want this one Lance." She called out when the trap door underneath the bunny went lose sucking Kitty down the floor."
"Kitty!" Rogue yelled. Lance look faltered for a minute before his usual expression donned on his face. "Where did she go?"
"You will see her again at the lost and found at the end of the tour, after she goes through the caramel process."
"Caramel Process...?"
"All chocolate from the bunnies goes directly to the caramel machine." Rogue's mouth dropped open.
"Lance, aren't you worried about Kitty?"
"We'll just get her at the lost and found, when we get our chocolate-e treats." Rogue's eyes bulged out.
"Don't worry. There is only one more stop on our tour, and if your good you get a treat."
"Yeah Yeah Yeah..." Rogue said following Miranda and Lance.
"This is another project we are working on. It shrinks down candy that way you can carry more on your way home."
"Really?" Lance asked intrigued.
"Oh great." Rogue said pinching the bridge of her nose. Lance moved closer to the machine.
"Sir you need to get away from there." Miranda said, but not in time for Lance to get shrunk. "Don't worry, Rogue...."
"Yeah yeah yeah.... Lost and found." Rogue said following her to the end of the tour. If her friends weren't at this mysterious lost and found, there would be hell to pay. Miranda turned around and put her hands of her knees and hunch over, as if speaking to a little kid.
"Now, Rogue, we would like to thank you for behaving yourself." Miranda said passing by the box marked lost and found. She gently pushed Rogue along with her, until they reached an office. She looked to see an old man at the desk. He turned around and the old man was William. Rogue looked back at Miranda who had morphed into an elderly woman. "Dear, we are old, and since you behaved. You now get this factory as a reward."
"What the hell is going on?"
"She'll have to clean up her language, dear." William said to Miranda.
"Y'all are gonna torture me in all dimensions, aren't ya?"
"Child, we have no clue what you are talking about." Miranda said leading Rogue to sit in the chair William vacated. "This is all yours, and now you can never leave." Rogue let out a blood curdling scream.
"Rogue.... Rogue. Vake up Schwester." Kurt said shaking her. Her jerked awake, breathing heavily.
"We here, and if we don't hurry we're gonna, like, miss the tour." Kitty said. Rogue scrambled away and leaned against the far door.
"Ah'm not goin' in there."
Pietro and Tabby pulled up to the grocery store, and very quickly made their way inside, well quick to Tabby, but still so slow to Pietro. They walked up and down the aisles.
"Do you really think we should do this? I've been arrested before, and it isn't fun." Pietro turned around to look at her and smirked.
"Yes , I do, and so have I." He said quickly, scouting the cashiers. "Do you know which one it was?"
"I just have a description." She told him looking at each cashier carefully, trying to match up the description to a specific person. "Damn it! Why do there have to be so many brunettes in the world?"
"Really?" Pietro asked, studying her hair. She covered her head and glared at him.
"I'm a natural blonde thank you very much." He got a seductive smirk on his face.
"Prove it." He said arrogantly. She hit him hard across the chest. "Ouch." He glared at her right back before she started laughing at him. "Ok, if you don't know which one it is, we should just hit them all."
"Sure it should be good for a laugh."
"Now for the good part." Pietro said holding out his arms. Tabby grumbled as she jumped in Pietro's arms.
"You better have a good grip on me, because I need my hands."
"God, Tabitha how much do you weigh?" He said adjusting her weight in his arms.
"You're just weak." She said angrily. "You're not gonna drop me or anything?"
"No." he said in a manner that told her he was now bored with the waiting. She rubbed her hands together.
"Let's go."
Pietro took off running he stopped for a millisecond at each register while Tabitha messily tossed a little bomb in. They had to repeat this process a few times before they got all the registers. Tabitha was too slow to get them all the first time. Pietro then ran out the door. At the corner of the building he set her down, and she moved her jaw as if to stretch her face.
"Be-right-back." He said racing back into the store. He rushed to each cashier and pulled each one of their pants down before running back out of the store. He heard tiny explosions behind him. He stopped in front of Tabitha who was laughing hysterically.
"That was great." He picked her back up and raced them to the car. She got in moved and massaging her jaw. "I feel like my face is going to fall off. How on earth do you deal with that?"
"Really? It doesn't bother me." Tabby shrugged and started giggling at the site of some people running out of the store. She turned to look at Pietro.
"We make a good team. We should do this stuff more often."
"Yeah, we should, but you seriously gotta speed up, babe." She let her face wash over with an expression at mock hurt.
"I'll try." She said smiling.
"We should get out of here now." She nodded, but before he could turn the key. She leaned over and kissed him on the lips. She quickly pulled back with a cocky smile. "Wha...?"
"Don't flatter yourself, I kiss everybody. Now we should get Wanda's car back before she knows its missing." She said. He shook his head.
"Whatever." He looked back at her before, throwing the gear in reverse, and kissed her.
"Wha...?"
"Don't flatter yourself, I kiss everybody."

"Yeah yeah yeah.... Lost and found." Rogue said following her to the end of the tour. If her friends weren't at this mysterious lost and found, there would be hell to pay. Miranda turned around and put her hands of her knees and hunch over, as if speaking to a little kid.
"Now, Rogue, we would like to thank you for behaving yourself." Miranda said passing by the box marked lost and found. She gently pushed Rogue along with her, until they reached an office. She looked to see an old man at the desk. He turned around and the old man was William. Rogue looked back at Miranda who had morphed into an elderly woman. "Dear, we are old, and since you behaved. You now get this factory as a reward."
"What the hell is going on?"
"She'll have to clean up her language, dear." William said to Miranda.
"Y'all are gonna torture me in all dimensions, aren't ya?"
"Child, we have no clue what you are talking about." Miranda said leading Rogue to sit in the chair William vacated. "This is all yours, and now you can never leave." Rogue let out a blood curdling scream.
"Rogue.... Rogue. Vake up Schwester." Kurt said shaking her. Her jerked awake, breathing heavily.
"We here, and if we don't hurry we're gonna, like, miss the tour." Kitty said. Rogue scrambled away and leaned against the far door.
"Ah'm not goin' in there."
Pietro and Tabby pulled up to the grocery store, and very quickly made their way inside, well quick to Tabby, but still so slow to Pietro. They walked up and down the aisles.
"Do you really think we should do this? I've been arrested before, and it isn't fun." Pietro turned around to look at her and smirked.
"Yes , I do, and so have I." He said quickly, scouting the cashiers. "Do you know which one it was?"
"I just have a description." She told him looking at each cashier carefully, trying to match up the description to a specific person. "Damn it! Why do there have to be so many brunettes in the world?"
"Really?" Pietro asked, studying her hair. She covered her head and glared at him.
"I'm a natural blonde thank you very much." He got a seductive smirk on his face.
"Prove it." He said arrogantly. She hit him hard across the chest. "Ouch." He glared at her right back before she started laughing at him. "Ok, if you don't know which one it is, we should just hit them all."
"Sure it should be good for a laugh."
"Now for the good part." Pietro said holding out his arms. Tabby grumbled as she jumped in Pietro's arms.
"You better have a good grip on me, because I need my hands."
"God, Tabitha how much do you weigh?" He said adjusting her weight in his arms.
"You're just weak." She said angrily. "You're not gonna drop me or anything?"
"No." he said in a manner that told her he was now bored with the waiting. She rubbed her hands together.
"Let's go."
Pietro took off running he stopped for a millisecond at each register while Tabitha messily tossed a little bomb in. They had to repeat this process a few times before they got all the registers. Tabitha was too slow to get them all the first time. Pietro then ran out the door. At the corner of the building he set her down, and she moved her jaw as if to stretch her face.
"Be-right-back." He said racing back into the store. He rushed to each cashier and pulled each one of their pants down before running back out of the store. He heard tiny explosions behind him. He stopped in front of Tabitha who was laughing hysterically.
"That was great." He picked her back up and raced them to the car. She got in moved and massaging her jaw. "I feel like my face is going to fall off. How on earth do you deal with that?"
"Really? It doesn't bother me." Tabby shrugged and started giggling at the site of some people running out of the store. She turned to look at Pietro.
"We make a good team. We should do this stuff more often."
"Yeah, we should, but you seriously gotta speed up, babe." She let her face wash over with an expression at mock hurt.
"I'll try." She said smiling.
"We should get out of here now." She nodded, but before he could turn the key. She leaned over and kissed him on the lips. She quickly pulled back with a cocky smile. "Wha...?"
"Don't flatter yourself, I kiss everybody. Now we should get Wanda's car back before she knows its missing." She said. He shook his head.
"Whatever." He looked back at her before, throwing the gear in reverse, and kissed her.
"Wha...?"
"Don't flatter yourself, I kiss everybody."
