(An: Here I go again.. run while you all can.. All righty I looked up Excalibur.. damn it was hard. Ha! Score! I found a whole website on the thing! ...and what I have discovered is that 'mic drawings are really weird. I've messed with Excalibur to suit my idiot comical needs.)

"This is it?" asked all four teens in unison, staring at the lighthouse.

"I would think so, since it's what's at the address," said Logan, also staring at the lighthouse.

"Can we help you with something?" asked a slightly bored sounding Brit, standing nearby.

"Um, yeah, we're lookin' fer-"

"Kitty?!" asked a vaguely familiar Scottish voice. A short girl with red hair came strolling around from the back, blinking at them all.

Kitty, Rogue, and Kurt squinted at her. Scottish girl.. red hair.. vaguely familiar..

Rahne rolled her eyes and muttered, "3... 2... 1..."

"Rahne?!" said all of the afore-mentioned people. Remy just looked confused.

"Yeah, it's me, ye dafties!" said Rahne, grinning now.

"You know these people?!" asked the Brit, looking as if not more confused as Remy.

"Yeah, ye know, the X-men?"

"...No..." said the Brit, blinking as though he knew the name but couldn't quite place it.

"Ye're an idiot," said Rahne, shaking her head in an affectionate manner.

"You can say that again. Who's the idiot this time?" asked another voice. Another girl with red hair came out from the back of the lighthouse.

"Brian, duh," said Rahne.

"Um... what's goin' on?" asked Remy.

Rahne rolled her eyes. "Who's the newbie?"

"...Me?" asked Remy, blinking.

"This is Remy," said Rogue, looking as though she was trying not to laugh.

"Uh-huh," said Rahne, nodding. "Oh, this is Brian and Rachel. Where's Pete?"

Another Brit stuck his head out of the lighthouse. "Someone call me?"

"And this is Pete," said Rahne.

"Ok, so, who are they?" asked Brian.

"Kurt, Kitty, Logan, Rogue, and.. Remy, right?"

Remy nodded, looking just a little bit dazed. "'M missin' somethin' here, ain't I?"

"So why are you people here?" asked Rachel, leaning against the wall of the lighthouse.

"We're here to get some.. things for a thing that'll make another thing work," said Kitty.

"Well that was informative," said Rahne. "Pete- Pete?" She snapped her fingers in his face.

Pete was looking quite dazed. He was staring at Kitty, his eyes wide.

"PETE!" yelled Rachel and Rahne in unison.

"Eh wha?" asked Pete, blinking.

"Open the door," said Rahne.

"Right," said Pete, looking as though he was desperately trying to salvage his dignity. He did as he was told, stepping aside.

"So what is this place?" asked Kurt, looking around as they walked inside.

"The headquarters for Excalibur," said Brian, looking relieved to be back in his element.

"What?" asked all of the X-men in unison.

"This is going to take a while, isn't it," said Rachel.

"Aye," said Rahne, shaking her head.

"Ok, so why are you people here?" asked Brian.

Pete smacked him on the arm, apparently able to speak again. "Don't question fate," he said softly. "At least, not when it walks in your door and talks in a valley girl accent." He was still staring at Kitty.

"You've lost it, haven't you mate?"

"Uh, we're lookin' for parts to this thing," said Rogue, pulling out the picture of the power negater piece. "Some guy in Germany said you'd have the parts for it."

Brian grabbed it, then it was taken by Rahne, Rachel, and then Pete. "Oooh, that thing," they all said in unison.

"Pete.. Pete... PETE!" said Brian. He had to yell even though he was right near said Brit's ear.

"What?" asked Pete, still in that soft, dazed tone.

"Go find the nice people's parts," said Rachel. "Ok, Petey love?" She gave him a gentle push and he walked off.

"Don't say that. It's creepy," said Rahne.

"All right, who are you people?" asked Logan.

"We could ask you the same question," Brian pointed out.

"Shut up," said Rachel. "We're Excalibur, a bunch of bored mutants who patrol Britain smashing bad guys. And harrassing our fearless leader here, of course." She pointed at Brian, who glared at her.

"So how'd you, like, end up here?" asked Kitty to Rahne.

Rahne shrugged. "Moira came here sometimes and she brought me."

"Am I de only one jus' a little bit confused?" asked Remy.

"We're all confused mate. Get used to it," said Brian.

"Do I know you?" asked Remy, blinking.

Brian was spared having to answer that question when Pete came back, holding a little bag. "Uh, here," he said, shoving the bag into Rogue's hands, not taking his eyes off Kitty.

"Are you, like, ok?" asked Kitty, completely oblivious.

"I-" Pete began.

He was cut off by the other members of Excalibur replying, "NO."

"Is that it?" asked Brian.

"Yep," said Rogue.

There was a very loud, irate beeping sound from one of the rooms in the back.

"Oh great, Douglocke crashed again," said Rachel. "I'll go reboot him."

"Who?" asked Logan.

"He's a combination cyborg/warlocke," Rahne informed them with a sage nod.

"Uh-huh," said the X-teens in unison. Logan just looked confused.

"Bye!" said Pete breathlessly. The X-group was pretty sure it was directed at Kitty, but they couldn't be sure since his eyes were unfocused.

Kurt let out a faint growl as they got back into the jet. Remy let out a faint moan as well, but that's not the point. Kurt's growl is what's relevant.

"What's, like, up with you?" asked Kitty, blinking.

"He was hitting on you," said Kurt.

"Who?" asked Kitty, Rogue, and Logan at the same time. Remy might've said it too, but Logan was taking off, so you get the idea.

"That Pete guy," said Kurt, strangling the air and looking as though he wished it were that Pete guy's neck.

"He was, like, so not," said Kitty. "You're not, like jealous, are you?"

"Who, me?" asked Kurt, doing his best "innocent" look.

"He was kind of, like, cute, though," said Kitty, her tone thoughtful.

"WHAT?!" asked Kurt.

"Like, relax, Kurt," said Kitty, laughing.

"I hate you," he informed her.

"I, like, know, ain't it, like, great?"

(And that's that.)
