If it's suicide you're after Master Bruce, I have the recipe for an old family potion. It's slow working and quite painful, you'd like it."

--Alfred from Batman

^*^*^**^^*^**^*^*^KISSABLE KYRO^^**^*^*^^*^*^*^*^*^**^^*

Kitty: Like, YES!  Another chapter for me!

John: I can't complain much Sheilah.

Lance:….

Kurt: He's moving in on her.  We have to stop him.

^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*

A starry night.  A picnic basket.  Perfection at it's best.

*^*^*^^**^^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*

Juju:  Hmm…..

Evan: What's up little ninja gremlin man?

Juju: Juju believes that he must take great lengths if Beck is to get good luck…

Dexroth:  ….Leave it be.  For your own good.

^**^*^^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*

John Allerydace swiftly spread a cloth across the picnic table.  It was a simple green cloth.

^*^*^*^*^*^*^^*^^*^*^*

Magneto: *looking through reviews and writing notes*  Hmm….I know!  I'll take out the quiet ones first.  SOMEONE2003, You're mine.

Dexroth: Well, you know Mags, the quiet ones are always the most dangerous.

Magneto:  That's why I shall destroy them!

Dexroth:  Oh…uh….LOOK OVER THERE!

Magneto: *turns to where he's pointing*  What?

Dexroth:  *Takes out a match and sets the notes on fire and steals the reviews.*  Victory!

Magneto:  GET BACK HERE I—OWWWWWWWW! *tries to put his put the flames on his hand out.*

^**^^**^^*^*^*^**^^*^*^*^**

He waited for her.  The Shadowcat Sheilah.  Sweet, Beautiful, angelic sheilah.

^**^^**^*^*^^*^**^*^*^**^

Wanda: Oh, gag me.

John:…But…we have a chapter comin' up sheilah.

Wanda:  If you talk to me that way it's fine.  Anyone else is just gross.

*^^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^^*^*

Kitty slipped into the park unnoticed.  She had left the institute at one 'o clock in the morning for the rendezvous.

^*^***^^**^^**^*^^*^*^*

Juju: Black Pheonix said you wanted to rub Juju's head!

Beck: Yeah? Well HoneyBug17 says that she would throw you off a convenient bridge!

^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*

She snuck up behind the handsome pyro. 

"John."

"Yikes!  Shielah!"

His pouting voice made her laugh.

^*^*^*^**^^*^*^*^^*^^*^*^*^*^*

Rogue: Pouting voice?  What a crock!

Amara: You're just upset because it isn't you in this story.

Rogue: Shut-up!

Pietro: Ooh…The rogue is feisty…

Rogue: Do you want a repeat of our first stories? *takes gloves off menacingly*

^**^^*^**^*^**^*^^*^*

"Oh!  A picnic!…Are those candles?"  She asked teasingly.

^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*

Tabitha: Flirt.  Worse than Jean.

Jubes: What do you mean?

Tabitha: She's stringing four guys along!

Mystique: Worse than Rogue, you mean.

Rogue: Why don't you just be quiet, MOM.

^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^^*^*^*

"Of course." He grinned and took out a lighter. He clicked it on, and little fireballs erupted from it, which changed into beautiful dancers which swayed and twirled to their respective places on the candles.

^**^^*^**^^*^*^*^*^*^*

Piotr:  Very artistic.

Beck: Thanks.

John:  Why are you thanking her?  I'm doing all the work!

^*^*^**^^**^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^

Kitty gasped in delight at the beautiful array.

^*^**^^**^^**^*^^**^*^

Jean: Big surprise.

Kitty: Quiet, like, you ice queen!

Jean: Excuse me?!

Kitty:  You won't even let Scott in and you're ragging, like, on me?

Dexroth:*watching the show* *they don't know he's there!*

Jean:  You are such a little Jesebel!

Kitty: Like you're not! What about Duncan?

Dexroth: I wonder if any of the guys are watching this…..

Jean: That's different!

Kitty: *mock masculine voice* Oh Jean, I like, love you even if you have a problem. *normal voice* He's, like, an idiot!

Dexroth:  This is getting interesting…

Jean: Well I—HEY!

Kitty:  DEX!

Dexroth:  Oops…Busted!  *runs off*

*^*^^*^*^*^**^^*^*^*^*^*^*

They sat down and ate their dinner, though it was late, laughing and talking.  The stars above were as bright as if the night had been made just for them.

*^*^^*^*^**^^**^*^

Ray: Bernie and Dot's Custom Made Nights.

Roberto: Open every hour of every night.

Sam: And sometahmes on weekends.

^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^**^^*^*^*^*^**^

"Hey Kit."

"Yes?"

"Have you ever felt tired of fighting?"

"Always, why?"

^*^^*^*^^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^

Dexroth:  Must. Stay. Away. From. Psychopathgirlmutants!

Evan: What's with you man?

Dexroth: I was listening in on a conversation and now Red and Valley are trying to beat me up.

Scott: You deserve it.

Dexroth: Yeah? Well you deserve-

Doggy: WOOF!

^*^*^**^*^^**^*^^*^**^*^*^^^**

"I don't want to fight anymore.  I'm weary, sheilah.  Tired.  I was hinkin about movin off, goin to live my own life."

"But John…What about us?"

*^*^^*^*^*^*^**^^*^*^*^**^

Todd:  What ABOUT us, yo?

Fred: Aww….She's gonna ditch him!  I've seen this movie!

*^*^^*^*^*^**^*^*^**^

"That's why I wanted to have this dinner.  Will you come away with me?"

"You mean, run away together?"

*^^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*

Wanda: No, were going to jump away like little rabbits.  We wouldn't RUN away.  What are you, stupid? That would be too much work.

Dexroth: And the jealous half of Red Witch comes out!

Pietro: HISS!

^***^^*^*^*^*^**^**^*^^*^*

"Yes."

He watched her as she thought.

^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*

Ray: It took a very long time.

Amara: In the beginning, Kitty thought.  This was determined to be a bad and utterly useless idea and was soon taken out and shot.  The idea, not Kitty.

Kitty:  HEY!

Lance: Don't insult Kitty! Beck!

Beck: *choking with laughter* I heehee I'll allow hee it.

^**^^**^^*^*^*^**^^*^**^^*^*^*^*

"I don't want to leave my friends."

His heart fell to his feet.

"But sometimes you have to let important things go if you want to grow."

^^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*

Kurt: So profound….

Beck: *still laughing at Amara's comment.*

Kurt: *glare*

*^^*^**^^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^**^

She cupped his face in her delicate hands.

"I want to grow as a person.  Yes.  I'll go with you."

"I love you, Shielah." His heart soared.

"I love you too," She whispered as she kissed him.

*^^*^*^*^**^^**^^*^*^*^*

Magneto: Drat!  I didn't get any revenge.

Remy: Dat a pity.

*^^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^***^*^*^*^*^*^

Yeah, sorry for the lull in updates, I got caught up in finishing another fic. But I'm back on track!
