I am so so sorry that this took so long to get out! But here's the last chapter of TTWT. I have to end it, I really do. But I hope you like what I've done with the ending. May duelist finally be happy with me.
I don't own X-men, but if you ask my beta, redangelwings very nicely, she might just send you a copy of the pics of a semi-naked Remy.
Chap: what?
"I have no idea what to say," she blurted out. She sent a slightly panicking look at Kurt.
The boy froze. "Um, well, we, ah,--"
Logan raised a ticking eyebrow. He could smell the scent that was pouring off them in waves. Worry, fear, and a whopping dose of guilt. "Maybe someone with a little less caffine in them can tell me what the hell went on last night."
'If only you knew,' Kurt thought. 'You'd have my interesting parts on a string. Or maybe barbed wire.'
Kitty, who'd steadily been turning the color of a tomato, finally spoke up. "We, um, got together last night."
Beast frowned in confusion. "Got together? When?"
Logan got a dangerous look on his face. "You want to clarify that, kid?"
"We, that is, Kurt and I, we were playing twister, and stuff met that wasn't supposed to and I—I---I totally freaked out."
"What parts met?" Logan growled quietly.
Kurt was staring at Kitty with something like stunned terror. What on earth was she doing!!
"Static electricity!" she shouted.
"What?"
"Vas?"
"Static electricity! Lots and lots of static electricity! He built up a charge like no tomorrow, and it reacted with Raymond's power and Rhane's fur and man I just got fried like an egg!"
Everyone simply stared at the stammering girl. Kurt was speechless. He didn't know whether to laugh or pray. He settled on prayer, and began to go at the rosary full force, muttering under his breath in rapid-fire Latin, "Nos pater,--
"Are you being serious?" Logan asked, disbelievingly.
"You know what, I think she is," Mr. McCoy said. "But you know, it is possible."
"It is?" Logan said in surprise.
"It is?" Both teens echoed. When Beast shot them a look, both shut up in a hurry.
"Actually, yes. What Kitty describes is quite possible. Rhane's fur in her canine form would act as both an insulator and a conductor, rendering her immune to some charges of static electricity, and able to give it to someone else."
"Like walking across a rug?" Kurt asked.
"Exactly so. Raymond, of course, has a very high tolerance for electric shock, and since he sometimes isn't aware of building up a charge, it is possible that he could have exponentially increased the charge from Kurt and Rhane."
"So it's actually possible?" Logan asked, frowning in disbelief. "She really could have just been electrocuted?"
"Given the state of her heart rhythem after the fact, it is most definitely a strong possibility."
"Oh."
"(Whew)"
Logan looked sharply over at the two young mutants, who were doing their best to look angelic as hell. Both gave him smiles that were megawatts too bright, and asked to be excused. With a glance at Beast, the older man nodded. As they exited the room, they were both heard to give sighs of abject relief.

Kurt was holding onto the wall for dear life. "Ach, mein Gott. I thought we were going to die."
"No kidding. My whole life flashed before my eyes. At least it wasn't boring," Kitty replied.
Kurt looked at her oddly. Then he started to laugh. It was just a chuckle at first, then outright laughter, and now it was too the point where he was on his knees on the floor, one hand holding his side and the other all that held him up. He was gasping for breath, and tears were falling down his face.
"What's so funny?!"
"St---static-----ach, Gott,-----that was----(bwaahhahahahah!)-----the best—(gasp)-----you could come up with!? (ahahahahahah!) Ach, Gott en Himmel! Priceless!!" He went back to hysterical laughter.
Kitty stood in a huff for a moment, but then thought about it. Then she couldn't help it and joined in.

Logan was fit to be tied. "Hank, you can't honestly believe that load of crap you just said."
"Well, what other explanation is there? Cerebro didn't detect any spike in Kurt's abilities or Kitty's, so that rules out mutant powers gone awry. And I can't think of anything he could have physically done to her that could have caused such a reaction from her in such a short amount of time. Unless you can come up with something?"
Logan's silence was all that was needed.
"Cheer up, Sir Logan. At least now kitty's with a boy you can keep your eye on, eh?"
Logan perked up at that. With it being Kurt, he could definitely keep tabs on just how this little relationship went.

to everyone that has been so wonderfully patient, my deepest thanks and apologies.
Thank you all, so much, for liking my little story so much. I never expected anyone to react like they have to this. I mean, nearly three hundred reviews. For this!! Good lord in heaven.
To all of you, thank you, thank you, thank you.
