Shout Outs-
Anything but ordinary- Glad you like it! I can assure you, Scott IS NOT Emma's secret admirer! More Pete/Penance fun coming up next! Oh, by the way, I did get the idea for cutting Deadpool to pieces from Monty Python.
Agent-G- Glad you liked the Emma/Pete snarkiness! Watch out for more soon!

Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, Snow Valley, Massachusetts-
Emma frost, one of the head teachers on the school is sat at the kitchen table nursing a mug of coffee. It seems that love is in the air and it seems that everybody has paired up with someone else.
Well, that's how it seems to Emma. Sean Cassidy, Emma's co-head teacher, is always on the telephone to his fiancée, Moira MacTaggart. Her students have also begun to pair up. Paige Guthrie and Jonothon Starsmore have just restarted their somewhat fragile relationship. Paige wants to go further in the relationship but Jono doesn't want to rush things. Emma chuckles to herself, it's usually the male that wants to take the next step in the relationship!
Another of her students, Jubilation Lee, aka Jubilee, has also paired up! Emma had always known about her long-standing crush on Everett Thomas, but that wasn't to be as Everett had a crush on Monet St Croix and was killed in an explosion before the relationship could go anywhere. Jubilee slowly began to get over Everett's death, partly due to her growing attraction to Angelo Espinosa, yet another student. It seems that the only single people are Emma herself, Penance and Monet.
Monet is still mourning over Everett's death, Penance... uh... we'd better not go there, and Emma, well, it isn't as if she doesn't want anybody, far from it, she likes, nay, yearns, for love. For all of the men that Emma had been with while she was White Queen, she never loved any of them, it was all about sex. But now, having matured since then, she wants a lasting relationship.
Emma is broken from her brooding when Jubilee walks into the kitchen with a package in her hands.
'Hey Frosty, wassup? You look kinda gloomy, that's not like the Frosty that I know and kinda admire.'
'I'm fine thankyou Jubilee.' Emma replies.
'No you ain't!' Jubilee replies. 'Yer called me Jubilee fer one! Yer never call me Jubilee! It's always 'Jubilation, this', 'Jubilation, that!'
'Have you quite finished?' Emma asks.
Jubilee just shrugs, then remembers why she came into the kitchen.
'A package came for ya earlier. I dunno what it is, kinda light though.'
Emma takes the package from Jubilee and looks at it cautiously.
'Yer don't think that it's a bomb or anything do yer?' Jubilee asks.
'I somehow doubt that.' Emma replies. 'It feels rather light to be a bomb.'
'Ain't yer ever hear of letter bombs?'
Emma just rolls her eyes and opens the package. Much to her surprise there are two dozen white roses inside, a note too. Jubilee snatches the note away before Emma can read it.
'To Emma, from your fondest admirer. Looks like yer got yerself a stalker Frosty.' Jubilee says.
Emma gets a thoughtful look on her face.
'I don't think it's from a stalker Jubilee.' She replies. 'For one, the note is written on paper from Charles Xavier's office.'
'How can ya tell?' Jubilee asks.
'I can see his family crest on the top.' Emma replies.
'So what yer sayin' is, yer admirer's one of the X-Men?' Jubilee says.
'But which one?' Emma thinks out loud.
'I just hop it ain't Cyclops.' Jubilee says. 'Yeesh, imagine that! Mister Stick-Up-The-Ass Two Thousand and Three!'
Emma chuckles to herself.
'The day that I become attracted to Scott Summers is the day that Hank McCoy turns into a fuzzy blue cat!'
Later-
Emma is outside packing up her car for the journey to Westchester. She looks up to see Jubilee stroll down the front steps with a duffel back on her back and her lucky hat, the one that Logan gave her.
'And where do you think you're going?' Emma asks.
'I'm comin' with you.' Jubilee replies. 'I wanna see who yer stalker is!'
Emma knows better than to argue with Jubilee when her mind is made up.
'Very well.' Emma sighs. 'But I refuse to lay Britney Spears on the stereo!'
'What about Christina?' Jubilee asks.
'Just get in the car before I change my mind.' Emma replies.
Jubilee dumps her bag in the boot and climbs in the passenger's seat. Emma opens the door and gets in the driver's seat.
'You did tell Pete that we'd be gone didn't you?' Emma asks.
'I left him a note on the fridge.' Jubilee replies.
The kitchen-
Pete walks up to the fridge to search for a can of beer.
'What is wrong with these bloody people?' He asks. 'Don't they have any beer? Low-fat bloody yoghurt? You've got ter be kiddin' me! I have seriously got ter have a talk with that Guthrie girl about eatin' right!'
Then he notices the note. He picks it up and reads it.
'Wisdom, gone with Frosty to Westchester to find out who her admirer is. Espinosa, I've got ten on Drake!'
He scrunches up the paper and throws it over his shoulder.
'HEY EVERYONE!' He yells. 'FROSTY AN' JUBILEE 'AVE LEFT FER WESTCHESTER!! Yeah, that'll do.'
Pete then turns around to continue his search for food. Unseen by him, Penance is perched on the counter behind him eating an apple.
{Hello.}
'Bloody 'Ell!' Pete yells as he spins around and sees Penance perched on the counter. 'Yer talkin' in me bleedin' head!'
{I always talk.} Penance replies. {But you're the only one that can hear me.}
'I can't bloody believe this!' Pete moans. 'First Pryde's flyin' purple rat threatens me, now you! Yer not going ter burn me clothes are yer?'
{Why would I do that?} Penance asks. {I think you're... oh what's the word that Yellow Coat says? Ah yes, I think you're... hot! That is right isn't it?}
'Oh bloody 'ell!' Pete moans.
TBC...
Oh dear, a cliffhanger! Ain't I a stinker? Hee!
Will Emma ever find out who her secret admirer is? And will the others believe Pete when he tells them that Penance can talk? All the answers to these questions and more next time in: Generation-X!
