An: You guys are great. The reviewers that is.
Title: Meeting the Brotherhood.
"Okay finally...why do girls take such a long time getting ready for absoluty nothing?" Marie heard some guy say but when she looked in the direction she heard the voice there wasn't anyone there. "Down here Yo." Someone called in the same voice and she looked down and saw a guy with almost pearl green skin and faded hair and yellow teeth.
"These are the Brotherhood boys." Mystique said.
Marie was staring," What's-your-name?"
Some fast talking person said appearing out of nowhere. Marie realized she was being rude and looked away. She also realized she had been asked a question," Rogue-mah name is Rogue." She didn't know why she said it, she didn't even remember what the word meant but it simply popped out.
"We know your name and power so it's time you know ours," Some guy with an obvious attitude problem said. "I'm Lance Alvers but my other name is Avalanche."
"Why Avalanche?" Marie now known as Rogue asked.
He smirked and suddenly his eyes rolled in the back of his head and the ground began to shake. An empty picture frame fell and for the first time Rogue noticed how gross this house was. "That's why."
"I-Pietro-Maximoff-or-Quicksilver," he said quickly and was gone again and there was a gust of wind," Super speed," he said at a normal speed.
"Todd Tolansky or Toad," The guy sitting on the ground replied.
"The names self explanatory," Mystique rolled her eyes.
Rogue looked at everybody more closely. Lance was taller then her and wore a black short sleeved shirt with a brown vest over it and black fingerless gloves. His jeans were blue with rips in the knee's and he wore brown shoes.
Pietro the fast talking guy was skinny and tall. His hair was at white as her bands and it was slicked back. He was just as tan as Lance and wore a tight shirt and blue pants.
Todd was simply gross with a green shirt with a white one under and faded gray pants also with rips in the knee and spiked bracelets.
"Okay so you've met and know each other good. I have to go recruit another mutant if you don't mind," Mystique said and was gone not even a moment later.
Rogue looked at her team. "She's gone thank god," Todd said and looked at Rogue with fake pleading eyes," Please say you have money?"
"No ah don't why?" Rogue asked.
"We're a house full of guys and no one of us can seem to cook," Lance replied.
Rogue held back a laugh and simply walked to the refrigerator and looked inside. They had fresh meat to cook. She looked in the cabinet's and they had spices and clean dishes. She turned around and sighed," Kay boys whatever you do keep out the kitchen or else," she threatened.
"What are you gonna do!" Pietro said normally and suspiciously.
"Calm down speedy ah, being the only woman in the house, actually can cook." She said it harshly but even they knew she meant good, at least for them.
They went into the living room and Rogue took out some hamburger meat. She spent a little over an hour making lasagna. She made that and kool-aid. When she was done she took out four plates," Anybody want some?"
What a stupid question Rogue She thought as she rolled her eyes at herself.
The first plate was gone with a gust of wind and some food went with it.
That's gonna get annoying She sighed.
Rogue put some on a plate for the other two members of the team. Lance came and grabbed a plate then sat at the untrustworthy looking table. It looked almost ready to fall. the wood it was made out of was old and strips were chipping off. She grabbed her plate filled it with food and sat at the table as well feeling a bit awkward since it was new, also she was sure the table would simply fall without warning, and she was sitting at a table with other mutants and all are boys.
"Ahh hot hot hot hot," Todd said as he tried to use his tongue as his fork.
Lance and Pietro laughed and Rogue held her laughter back glaring instead.
What an idiot, it just came out the oven of course it's gonna be hot. She was still glaring.
"Where do you store it all?" Pietro asked Rogue after she finished eating.
"Huh?" she asked.
"That was a lot of food you ate...your so skinny," he replied.
"Look who's talkin'," Rogue said making Lance and Todd laugh.
"What's-that-supposed-to-mean?" he said quickly and almost angered.
"Ah think you know," Rogue got up washed her plate and went to her room.
Hours later she still couldn't sleep and she went downstairs and grabbed something to drink. "Couldn't sleep?"
She yelped and jumped," Lance!" she warned.
"Sorry I thought I was loud," he said.
He grabbed something to drink as well and they finished at the same time. They went upstairs to their separate rooms and as Rogue was steeling in her bed Lance came through the door. "Uh...just wanted to let you know your cooking was good...uh thanks."
Rogue was almost flattered but she huffed," Well don't get use t' it only reason ah made it was because ah was hungry mahself."
She saw Lance smile and heard him laugh as he went to his room. She smiled knowing that she was going to fit in better than she planned. Then she frowned because she remembered about her powers. She was never to touch another living person again. It was too bad that the last person she touched without hurting them was Remy. She couldn't hold back the tears. She might as well be dead if she couldn't get close to anybody without hurting them. She couldn't have a boyfriend, best friend, or even pet. She reached in her pocket and saw the device that the redhead Jean had gave her. She put it under her pillow and went to sleep.
And ah thought ah hated mah life back home. She thought just before she went to sleep.
