It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes.

Lance: NO WAY! I WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE MY OWN CHAPTER!
Kurt:*snicker*
Beck: Don't be angry. I'll give you extra time.
Lance: You will?
Beck: Yep. Totally.
^*^***^^*^*^*^*^*^**^^*^*^**^^*^*
Love was in the air.
^**^^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^
Bobby: Sure it wasn't something they ate?
Jubes: *snorts*
^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^^^**^^*^*^**^^*^*^**
Leaves fell in a beautiful fall day. The wind played with them, sending them hither and thither.
*^^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Dexroth:*Squeaky mocking voice* Oh Mrs. Pigglywiggly, I go hither and thither and do not know whither I go.
Beck:*chokes back laughter* Shut-up Dex.
^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^**^^*^**^*^**^
Lance shielded Kitty from the light bite of the wind. They were walking over to a café, where they could be alone, away from the hustle and bustle of the assorted groups they lived with.
^*^**^*^*^^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Ororo: I heard you were doing a story of me.
Beck: Believe me honey, if you knew what was in the impending for you, you wouldn't be asking me about this one.
Dexroth: Yeah, for once you're going to get some romance—YEEOWCH!
Ororo: Say such things again and I shall hit you with more lightening. GOT IT?!
Beck:…He's gone. He left as soon as you started to speak again.
Ororo: ….BY THE GREAT THUNDER GODS HE WILL LISTEN TO WHAT I HAVE TO SAY!
^*^*^*^**^^**^^*^*^**^*^*^*^*^**^^*^*^**^^*^*
But unbeknowest to them, someone lurked above, watching them.
^**^^**^^**^*^^*^*^*^^*^*^*
Magneto: DDDOOOOOMMMMM!
Dexroth: *not really paying attention* Woah….I can turn on lamps by touching them.
Beck: Err…Isn't that the purpose of those little buttons?
Dexroth: Har-de-har-har-har. No, I mean without using the buttons.
Magneto:……
Beck: Wow, really? I heard when people are hit by electricity, they may become like a battery for a few hours…
Magneto: Excuse me.
Dexroth: A few hours hunh? Think I can get the radio to catch the comedy station?
Magneto: Excuse Me.
Beck: Maybe…
Magneto: HEY! EVIL BAD DUDE BACK TO MAKE YOUR LIVES MISERABLE!
Beck: Hunh? Oh! Uh…Gasp!
^*^*^**^*^*^*^**^*^*^^*^*^*^*^*^*
Magneto floated above the café, contemplating about this turn of events.
"I would not harm them if I were you, Magneto."
He turned to see the beautiful Storm, floating in the air not far away.
^*^**^^**^*^^**^^**^*^^*^*^*^*^*
Kitty: Hey! Like, go back to us!
Lance: Yeah! You said I got more time!
Beck: Keep your pantyhose on.
Magneto: And then I was chased around by this Jaganashi woman with a rope and a chicken! I don't know what she was planning, but it was good I got out of there when I did!
Dexroth: That's…..great. Can you unstick me from the fridge now? *mutters* this is the last time I wear this belt….
Magneto: NO! You have to listen to the pain you've caused me. Why…is your refrigerator in the living room?
Beck: Some of the others trashed my kitchen while you were gone.
Magneto: And I missed it….
^**^*^*^*^*^^**^*^^*^**^*^
Meanwhile, in the café, unaware of what was taking place, Kitty was laughing at something that Lance had said.
^*^*^^**^^**^^*^**^*^*^^*^*^*^*
Scott: There's a shocker.
Lance: Bring it on Red Eye!
Scott: Brotherhood trash!
Kurt: Creep!
Todd: Furball!
Fred: X-geeks!
Wanda: I'm gonna stay out of this.
Jean: You'd better.
Wanda: Excuse ME?!
^^*^*^*^*^*^**^^**^**^^*^*^**^^**^^*^*
"Hey Kitty…"
"Yeah Lance?"
"Do you….love Kurt?"
^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^**^^*
Kurt: GO X-MEN!
Todd: BROTHERHOOD RULES YO!
Tabitha: I'm gonna boom somebody, I don't care whose side they're on!
^**^^*^*^*^**^**^*^*^*^**^^*^*^*
"Well, he was good as a friend….Why are you asking me this?"
^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^***^*^^*^*^*^*^**^*^^^**^
Beck: This potion….what does it do again?
Juju: It makes everyone feel happy. Rub it on Juju's head, it will have luck with it.
Beck: What is the deal with rubbing you head?
Juju: I am good luck!
Beck: Ri-ight.
^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^^**^^*^*^*
Above, Magneto sighed.
"Young love is so Impromptu, don't you agree?"
"Yes." She stood on the building roof with him. Once they had started talking, he hadn't been so bad.
*^^*^**^^*^**^^**^^**^*^^**^*^^**
Beck: *throws potion at quarreling mutants.* Hah! That'll teach you to fight in my house!
Lance: Wow….Now I'm happy to beat you up Summers!
Scott: Me too! I hope you have as much fun as I have!
Dex: Didn't go the way I'd expect.
Juju: Should've rubbed it on Juju's head!
Beck: Quiet. Both of you.
^^**^^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^**^^*^*^**^^**^*^*^*^
"And how is it that our love lives are so bare? Perhaps we are looking in the wrong places."
"What do you mean, Magneto?"
"Please. Call me Eric."
^**^^**^^**^^**^^**^^*^**^*^
Magneto: Wait a minute….This story has me in it!!
Dexroth: You are so very perceptive. I never would have realized if you hadn't pointed it out.
Magneto: This will not go unavenged.
*^*^*^^**^*^^**^*^*^**^*^^*^**^
"I wanted to ask you Kitty. I wanted to ask you….If you would be mine."
"Yours?"
Lance pulled something from his pocket.
"This is a promise ring. A promise to be together forever. You have my promise. May I…have yours?"
*^*^^*^**^^*^*^*^^**^^**^
Beck: Yes officer. These people are causing havoc in my home.
Officer: *takes rest of department and arrests the X-men and brotherhood.*
Todd: We've been framed!
Lance: You idiots! Break the handcuffs!
Scott: That's immoral!
Jean: And wrong!
Beck: I don't care what you guys do outside of my house…wait. Leave the guy with the mullet and the valley girl, please. You guys gotta see how your stories end. And the woman with the white hair.
Ororo: I'd rather leave.
Beck:…..Don't be a spoilsport.
^**^^*^*^**^^***^^*^**^^*^**^*^^*
"Let is put aside out differences and try. I always did admire you, Ms. Monroe."
"I suppose it couldn't hurt….Eric."
He leaned down and kissed her gently.
^**^^**^^**^^**^*^^*^*^*^*^*^^*
Magneto: Come, Storm. Together we can destroy this Authoress!
Ororo: Indeed. We will 'put aside our differences and try'.
Beck: Juju.
Juju: HII-YYAHHH!!!!!!!! *does funky ninja moves with a net and traps Magneto and Storm in it* LIKE A NINJA!
Beck: You are good luck.
Juju: So-
Beck: No. I'm not rubbing your head.
^^**^*^*^^***^^*^**^*^^*^^**^^*^**^*^^*
"Oh….Lance…This. No one has ever been this romantic for me before! Of course! I promise. Forever."
She leaned over the table and kissed him as he slid the ring on her finger.
*^^*^*^*^**^*^*^^*^*^*^^*^*^**^*
Aww….
