A.N. I've decided that this is going to mainly be Kietro, but there will be certain chapters dedicated to Romy. Other couples may enter. If there are certain couples that you would like or don't like, then please tell me. I hope that you enjoy the chapter. Oh yah, if you have any requests on anything else, I'm open for them. More to come soon!

Beep, beep, beep, beep! Kitty reached over and phased her hand through her alarmclock, short circuiting the loud machine.

"Wha' time is it?" Rogue asked groggily from the other side of the room.

"Whatever time it is, it's, like way too early," Kitty grumbled back, turning on her side to see the red glowing numbers were flashing twelve. ~~ Oh man! I was trying to turn off the alarm, not kill another alarmclock. Now I can't tell what time it is. Stupid phasing powers. ~~ She leaned over her bed to look under it. "I know that my watch is, like under here somewhere," she grumbled to herself. "Aha! Found it!" she yelled in triumph. Kitty pressed the glow button to see what time it was, her head still under the bed. "Oh my god! It's eight o'clock!" Suddenly she lost her balance and fell out of bed. She didn't seem to care. "We like only have twenty minutes to like get ready!"

Rogue scrambled out of bed as Kitty jumped up off the floor. Kitty snagged her outfit and ran out of the room toward the bathroom. Rogue just shut the door and got changed in their room.

Once Kitty was in the bathroom, she phased out of her nightclothes and hurriedly pulled on her school outfit for the day. She ran a brush through her hair a few times before she pulled it up into her usual high ponytail, letting her bangs cascade down to frame her face. She spared one last glance at her reflection in the mirror before grabbing her pj's from the floor and phasing out of the unlocked bathroom, sprinting towards her bedroom. She almost ran into Rogue as she skidded to a halt in front of her bedroom door.

"Woah! Watch it," Rogue said angrily. Kitty obviously wasn't listening as she started getting her stuff ready. "Ugh. Hopeless," Rogue mumbled as she headed down the stairs so she could grab a quick breakfast. This was going to be a long, long day.

Over at the Brotherhood's house, things were just as hectic.

"Todd, Freddy, Pietro! Get up now!" Lance hollered up the stairs. He didn't have to worry too much about Pietro, what with his super speed, but he had to give Todd and Freddy a lift to school. Suddenly the house stared shaking, but it wasn't his doing. Freddy came bounding down the stairs, every step another loud thump.

"Is breakfast ready yet?" Freddy questioned excitedly.

"Yah. It's on the table already," Lance answered. ~~ One down, two to go. ~~ He thought as Freddy headed into the kitchen. "I'm warning you! If you don't get down here right now, I'm bringing the whole house down!" he threatened. "One...two...." Just then Todd came hopping down the stairs.

"Okay, okay, yo. I heard ya," Todd said as he groggily bounced into the kitchen to see if Freddy had left him some food. This left only Pietro.

"Pietro, hurry it up," Lance yelled. ~~ He should be down soon. ~~ He waited patiently, or at least as patiently as he could, for the young speed demon to come zooming past him. After about three seconds he gave up. "Ugh. Never mind. Pietro, we're leaving for school," Lance sighed. "Todd, Freddy! We're leaving!" He yelled, grabbing his backpack and heading toward his truck. Todd followed, hopping quickly. Freddy grabbed on last piece of toast and headed out the door. As they were heading out the driveway in Lance's truck a silver flash zoomed by. It suddenly stopped in front of the still moving car, showing Pietro. Lance slammed on the breaks, sending everyone in the vehicle lurching forward.

"Pietro! What do you think you're doing?!" Lance yelled angrily. ~~ At this rate we're never going to make it to school! ~~

"Last one to school is a rotten egg, or in our case, a rotten mutant," Pietro said waving. "See ya!" With those last words, he zoomed out of there. Lance shook his head, pressing his foot down on the gas petal, sending the truck forward again.

~~ He's probably already there. ~~ Lance sighed heading down the road toward school. And this was a normal morning for the Brotherhood of mutants.

Scott pulled into the Bayville High parking lot at the same time as Lance. (A.N. Coincidence? I think not! This helps me with the plot! Teehee. I rhymed.) Pietro sat on one of the steps into the school, waiting impatiently for the rest of the Brotherhood.

"Took you long enough," Pietro said, annoyed.

"Well some of us don't have supperspeed, yo," Todd complained as he hopped out of the truck.

"Yah, yah. Excuses, excuses," Pietro said wagging his finger at them. Just then he noticed the X-Men climb out of their car. ~~ This is either going to be awkward or very interesting. I think I like the later one better. ~~ Pietro thought. Scott and the others just tried to ignore them, but Pietro wasn't going to let them get away without stirring things up a bit.

"Soooo," he drawled out," What are you guys getting me for Christmas?"

"Why are you guys, like, coming anyway?" Kitty asked angrily.

"No reason, Pretty Kitty," Lance said, leaning against the side of his truck. "We just felt like it."

"Besides. It would have been rude of us not to accept such a gracious invitation," Pietro said smirking.

"Don't show up!" Scott said, letting his temper get the best of him. "The professor may have invited you, but you are not welcome by us."

"We're coming. Want to make something of it?" Lance said threateningly, clenching his fists.

"Come on, Scott. Let's just go or we'll be late," Jean said, putting a hand on his shoulder to calm him. It had the desired effect.

"You're right," Scott said to Jean. Then to Lance, "You're not worth it." Before Lance could react, the X-Men filled into the school.

"Yo, calm down. Don't listen to them," Todd said trying to calm Lance down. He knew that if Lance's temper got the better of him, the school would probably go down in rubble. Lance backed down. School was about to start, and he didn't need another detention for the weekend. The Brotherhood headed into the school, Pietro walking fast in the lead.

~~ I'll get you Summers! ~~ Lance thought angrily. ~~ This isn't over yet. ~~
