Me: Chapter3 is here now! This part also has some humor in it. I just can't
seem to stay serious no matter how how hard I try... Hmm I can't decide if
Wanda is OOC in this or not... Tell me if you think so!
And I'd like to thank Rogue14, Maria Christina, Sarkywoman(), Denielle, anarchylust, and Suraka-chan for Reviewing!
Rest of my goofy A/N found at my message board link in my profile since the link seems to be what's screwing up the chapter.
Re-uploaded. I don't know what went wrong with that last up-load. Sorry guys!!

Pietro POV
I open my door a crack and peek around to see if anyones lurking in the hall. When I don't see anyone I open it fully and run down to the kitchen at super speed.
I quickly dump my dishes from yesterday in the sink then grab some salad, a apple, a banana, a bowl of cereal, and a large glass of orange juice and run back to my room.
I fall against my door gasping the room spinning wildly as I struggle not to black out.
"Damn blood loss..." I mumble under my breath after the room stops spinning and I sit down on my bed to eat my breakfast.
When I'm done I sit back on my bed and think. "I have to do something about this. If I can't use my powers I'll be really screwed if we get sent on a mission or get in a fight. So I have to go back to only cutting once in a while or maybe just really shallow cuts that don't bleed a lot. Maybe vitamins or something would help too." I mumble as I think out loud.
I jump slightly when someone knocks on my door. "Yeah what?"
"It's Mystique. Open up I want to talk to you."
I moan under my breath. This is the last thing I need right now! I climb off my bed and walk to the door and open it. "Yeah Mystique? What's up?"
She pushes by me and walks into my room. I shut the door and lean against it raising an eye brow at her.
"What was all the screaming about last night?" She said pinning me with a glare.
"How would I know? Wanda and the guys were being weird and claiming I'm the one being weird." I say nonchalantly.
She narrows her eyes at me trying to tell if my lying or not. I smirk and shift my weight. "You really have no idea what they were screaming about?"
"Nope. None. You know how they are. Total weirdos." I say shrugging and swaggering over to by bed and plopping down.
"Mm-hmm. Well I don't want it happening again do you understand me? I don't like hearing screaming when I'm trying to relax. Now I'm going out but when I get back tonight I was quiet!" She said with a growl and stalks out of my room slamming the door after her.
I sigh and rub my hands over my face. Great. Just great. Now I'm gonna have to pull out my bossy jerk act and order them to stay quiet and they'll hate me ever more. Just wonderful.
Normal POV
Lance was the first up. Well at least the first up to not lock him self back in his room.
He stumbled down the stairs and started making the coffee. He leaned against the counter yawning as he waited for his morning fix of caffeine.
Monday. He hated school days. He didn't get why Mystique and Magneto wanted them in school but they did so they were.
Once he had his first cup of coffee in him he went about making breakfast for him self then went to wake everyone up.
After he was done eating and they were done showering and getting dressed he went up and showered and dressed while they ate.
He stopped in front of Pietro's door and gave it a bang. "Pietro! School time! You riding with us or running?"
He heard Pietro's voice from inside the room. "I'll walk."
"Fine. just don't be late or Mystique will blow a fuse if you have detention again." Lance said walking away.
It was funny. Even though Magneto had put Pietro in charge Lance still acted like the leader. Or rather like the parent.
Lance, Freddy, Todd, and Wanda headed out to school leaving Pietro alone in the house.
Pietro POV
When the other's were gone I left my room.
I ran down the stairs and stopped at the bottom to stop my head from spinning. "Argh! This is getting on my nerves! I can't do anything any more! What was I thinking doing this to my self?!" I snarl as I walk to the kitchen to grab a last minute energy boost so I can hopefully make it to school with out passing out.
I use my super speed to to drink a few cups of coffee extra sweet, down a couple Jolts from the fridge, make my self a weight gain shake, and check to make sure a had a large supply of Pixie Sticks on my pockets.
Once I'm buzzing from the caffeine I feel more like my self and race to school beating the guys there as usual.
I'm just getting some books from my locker when I see them walking down the hall. Time to confuse the hell out of them and keep them from thinking any things wrong with me.
"Heyslowpokes! Tookyoulongenoughtogethere! What'dyoudocrawl?" I asked bouncing around them grinning like a maniac.
Wanda narrowed her eyes at me.
"OhyeahbeforeIforgettotellyouMystiquewantsyouguystokeepquietwhenshegetshomet onight!" I tell them slipping on my snotty 'Boss' face.
"Why did she just tell us her self?" Lance asked also giving me a look.
"HowshouldIknow? Shejusttoldmetotellyou! Sodoit!"
I don't understand why the guys are giving me these weird looks. They don't look pissed that I'm even near them like normal they're just staring at me weirdly.
I grab my books then race to my homeroom forgetting about the guys for now.
Normal POV
"Did you see him?! He was actin' totally normal, yo! Maybe we were all wrong about him, yo." Todd said hopping down the hall with the others.
"It wasn't him. I mean the hyperness wasn't natural. It was caffeine and sugar." Wanda told them.
"How do you know?" Lance asked her.
"He's my twin. I know him. There's a difference between his natural hyperness and fake hyperness. I'm the only one who can tell. No one else has ever been able to." Wanda said as she stuffed some books into her locker and grabbed others.
"So it's like one of those Psychic twin things?" Freddy asked.
"Yeah I guess." Wanda said shutting her locker. "I have to get to class now. We'll talk more at lunch."
They all split up and went to their separate classes.
Still Normal POV
At lunch they all met up at their normal table and sat down. "How're we gonna talk about 'Tro if he's sittin' here with us?" Todd asked taking a bite of his lunch.
"We'll get rid of him. Get him to go T.P Kelly's or Summers car or something." Lance said.
"Ok so we need a plan. We have to decide how we're gonna figure out what's wrong with the idiot then how we're gonna fix him." Wanda said.
"Ok well we could search his room?" Freddy suggested
"He's always in it lately!" Lance complained.
"No, no that could work. We might find something that will tell us what's wrong with him. Ok here's what we do. After school we wait till one of the times when he leaves the room then we distract him. Talk to him, argue, anything to keep him out of his room then one of us searches it." Wanda laid out her plan in between bites of, only god knows what, that was for lunch that day.
"Sounds good. So who does what?" Lance asked.
"You, Toad, and Freddy distract him I'll search. I know his obsessive compulsiveness best and I have the best chance of putting his stuff back where he left it so he won't know I was looking. All you have to do is keep him busy for a a few minutes or so."
"Great. So we have a plan. Now all we have to do is wait till school is over so we can put it into action." Lance said with a grin.
Just moments after he said that Pietro zipped up with his tray and sat down a slight bit away from the rest of the group.
They looked over as he started eating.
He looked up to see them staring at him. "I know I'm beautiful and all but why are you guys staring at me?"
Lance pointed to his almost over flowing tray. "We know you eat a lot but you normally spread it out over the day not all at once. What's with all the food. And why is most of it candy?!"
Pietro looked down at his tray. "It's not mostly candy. Just a few candy bars and some Pixie Sticks with my regular cafeteria slop. And what do you care what I eat? What's it to you?" He said defensively.
"Cause we have to live with you when you're hyped up on all the sugar! And you're drinking Jolt with it! You're trying to kill us aren't you?!"
Pietro glared at Lance and stood up taking his tray to a different table across the room.
Wanda slapped Lance up side the head. "Great going! Get him pissed at us! He'll really talk to you guys at home while I'm searching and accept our help now! God! How did you make it to high school if you're this stupid?!"
Lance cringed. "I didn't know he was gonna freak like that! It was a legitimate question when the guy in question is hyper without sugar or caffeine!"
Wanda kept glaring at him. "Go apologize. You'll never keep him away from his room if his pissed at you!"
"Oh please! He has an attention span of two seconds he probably forgot already!"
"GO!" Wanda growled holding her hand up and letting it glow with energy.
"Yes ma'am!" Lance said quickly getting up before Wanda could hex him.
"Uh hey Pietro? I'm uh sorry for pissing you off. And uh the comments about the stuff you're eating. Why don't you uh come back over to the table?" Lance said awkwardly looking over his shoulder at Wanda looking threatening.
Pietro looked at him like he just grew a second head. "You guys are on drugs aren't you. You're taking crack!"
"What?! We are not!"
"Then explain the freaky behavior!"
Lance opened his mouth to answer then closed it when he couldn't think of anything that made sense. He glowered. "Just come back over to the table." He turned and stalked back over and sat down.
"Well?! What happened? I don't see him coming over here!" Wanda snarled.
"He thinks we're on crack." Lance told them going back to eating.
"He what?!" Wanda shrieked.
"Shhh! Keep your voice down! You want the whole school hearing you?! I said he thinks we're on crack. And to tell the truth I don't blame him! We're acting like freaks!"
"Argh! Do I have to do everything my self?!" Wanda stood up and stalked over to Pietro. She stood there glaring at him then physically hauled him to his feet and started dragging him back to the table. Pietro just barely managed to grab his tray as he was dragged off.
By now most of the room was watching this little Soap Opera with amusement.
Wanda gave the room a look that screamed 'Mind your own business or die!' and everyone quickly found their lunches or conversations fascinating..
Pietro sighed sitting down again at the table. "Will someone please tell me why you guys are acting so weird today? Anyone? Even a hint would help!"
"Uh nothin's up Speedy. We uh just want the pleasure of your company, yo." Todd said brightly.
Pietro stared. "Oh you guys are so on drugs."
"We're not on drugs Pietro." Lance said again.
Pietro snorted. "Yeah sure. Right. And Freddy can beat me in a race. Tell me a nether one."
They guys exchanged looks wondering how they'd gotten into this mess.
"Just don't let Mystique or dad catch you while you're high you'll get a ass kicking of the century." Pietro warned as he concentrated on his food.
"Pietro! We are not on drugs! We're just...worried about you ok." Wanda admitted.
Pietro blinked slowly at his sister. "You're worried about me? Did I wake up in the wrong universe or something?" He asked looking completely confused.
"Tro, yo you gotta admit you been actin' pretty psycho lately." Todd said.
"I've been acting weird?! Talk about the pot calling the kettle black!"
"So we're all weird ok! But you've been really out of character the last few weeks or so. You've been hiding in your room, talking normally, not running around at super speed, everything's off with you! And as much as we hate to admit it we're worried!" Wanda hissed trying to keep the whole student body from over hearing.
Pietro stared open mouth in shock. "You...care?"
"Well of course we care you idiot! We're family! I'm your twin and the other morons here still think of you as family even if you are a grade A idiot. Now suck it up and tell us what's wrong!" Wanda told him sternly.
The bell rang before Pietro could even think of something to say. Pietro quickly finished his lunch in super speed then raced off without another word.
Wander balled her fists and barely kept her self from hexing anyone and everyone. "I'm gonna kill him. No worse I'll make him long for the days when I was trying to kill him! I will kick his skinny ass!"
Pietro POV
I race down the empty street my mind racing faster then my legs could run even on a good day.
I can not believe what had happened before at school. Wanda and the guys had admitted they cared about me! They're worried about what's happening with me. They love me!
It was hours ago and I'm still recovering from the shock. I managed to avoid all of them for the rest of the school day and had raced out of the school as soon as the last bell rang.
My legs burn, my vision's blurred, my heart feels like it's going to explode right out of my chest but I push my self on and kept running. Maybe if I run fast enough and far enough all this will suddenly make sense to me.
Suddenly I slow down and fall to the ground struggling to keep from blacking out. The world spins wildly as I gasp for air and fall back laying on the grass staring up at the sky as it fades in and out.
After what feels like hours things go back to normal. I stay laying on the grass trying to straighten out my thoughts. This is a good thing right? They care about me. They want to help me. Then why am I so terrified?
And I'd like to thank Rogue14, Maria Christina, Sarkywoman(), Denielle, anarchylust, and Suraka-chan for Reviewing!
