Chapter Two
Tricks of the Trades
The next morning, Tabby was asleep, it was past 4:30, it was now 5:00, down in the traniing room, Logan tapped his foot impatiently, Bobby had arrived late by fifteen minutes and they were now waiting on Tabitha.
"What's takin' her so long?" Logan asked Bobby who shrugged.
"How should I know?"
"Y' stay here, I'm goin' ta see what is takin' her so long." Logan trudged up the stairs and into Amara and Tabitha's room, he saw Tabby sleeping soundly in her bed.
"Blondie What the fuck! Wake up!" Logan growled at her, Tabby rolled over and mummbled something in her sleep, Logan walked across the room to the blonde and shook her screaming in her ear. "WAKE UP!" With that Tabby bolted awake slamming her head against Logan's adamantium skull.
"Ow.." Tabby said rubbing her head, "Why'd ya do that?"
"Yer late."
"Fer what?"
"Training 4:30, ring a bell?"
"Shit!" Tabitha said sitting up again and getting out of her bed, revealing that she slept in pink boxers with a tight low cut shirt.
"Watch your mouth!" Logan said to her.
"Like you should be talking." Tabby responded. Amara in the bed over woke up and looked at the two of them
"Logan why are you in our room?" Amara asked sleepily.
"Gittin' Blondie up f'r her trainin' session she forgot about." Logan said watching Tabby run to the closet and grab her old Sirens uniform, it was her new uniform for the X-Men. she ran back out of the closet and looked at Logan.
"Git outta our room so I can change!" Tabby said as Amara giggled and Logan walked out of the door shutting it behind him and waiting for her, oh he was going to make her pay for making him come up and get her. Soon Tabby opened the door and she was standing there in her Sirens outfit.
"C'mon let's go.." Logan said leading Tabby down to the Danger Room.
After Logan's simulated Danger Room session Tabitha and Bobby were literally dead, it was now nine and they had begun their training at five after five. Almost four non-stop hours of training, Tabby was so tired.
Tabby had gone upstairs and took a shower getting all of the sweat off of her body, she was feeling a bit tired standing in the shower and had leaned against the wall a couple of times, she was so tired and out of energy for once, she thought the shower would wake her up. After awhile Tabby drifted in and out of sleep under the running water, she finally fell asleep under the water leaning against the wall, she slid down the wall still asleep.
Amara was brushing her hair, she had just woken up, she was a bit angry at Logan for interupting her sleep to wake Tabitha up but she had gotten back to sleep quickly so she excused him. After awhile she looked at her watch, Tabitha said she would meet her downstairs for breakfast at nine-thirty, it was now nine-thirty so she walked downstairs and into the kitchen, Bobby, Ray, and Logan were there.
"Hey any of you guys see Tabitha?"
"She said she was going to take a shower, I saw her go into the Girls' showers at around nine twenty or so." Bobby stated going back to a conversation with Ray.
"Oh okay." So Amara waited until nine fourty five, then looked at Logan, Bobby, Ray, and the newly entered Sam.
"She seriously can't take a shower for twenty-five minutes..." Amara said more to herself then anyone else.
"Hey she's a girl I wouldn't put it past her." Bobby said as Amara shrugged.
"It just doesn't seem like Tabby her showers are a max of fifteen usually." Amara said, "I'm going to the showers to see what's taking her so long." So Amara walked up the stairs and went into the girls showers, there was a shower running and she assumed it was Tabitha's
"Tabby?" Amara asked as she walked in, the mirrors were all fogged and she couldn't see a thing. "TABBY!" Amara called loudly, the blonde stirred from her sleep in the shower once she heard her name again.
"Huh?" Tabby said confused, she noticed she was under running water then looked at how foggy everything was. 'Shit' Tabby thought, 'I must have fallen asleep'
"Tabby?" Amara called once again taknig a step towards the shower, she hadn't heard Tabby earlier.
"What?" Tabby asked standing up in the shower but having her leg give out and plunge down to the floor.
"What was that?" Amara asked hearing the thud.
"Uhh dropped a bottle of shampoo."
"Tabby you know its nine forty-five."
"Shit, sorry Amara, jus' tryin' ta git clean." Tabby said shutting the water off and grabbing a towel as she stepped out wrapping it around her body.
"Tabby you are so red! Why did you stay under so long?" Amara asked. Tabby yawned.
"Jus' wanted ta be clean." Eventually Tabby dressed and went downstairs with Amara, clumsly falling sometimes, her legs were exhausted as was the rest of her body.
Later that afternoon, the new recruts were playing bullshit in the library when Xavier and the rest of the X-Men walked in.
"There you all are." Hank said as the X-Team sat down on the couches and such.
"Okay now I want you all to meet our new recruits..." Xavier began, "First tomorrow we are getting two new recruits, some of you may now them already."
"Who ahre thay?" Rogue asked playing with a strand of her white hair.
"Remy LeBeau and Piotr Rasputin."
"Hey Petey is joinin us." Tabby said with a smile, she had met him during the fight with apocalypse.
"Yes, even though they were Acolytes they will be now memebrs of our team and I expect everyone of you to be nice to them once they come, make them feel like part of the X-Men."
"Sure sure." Groaned Bobby.
The next day sure enough Remy LeBeau the black and red eyes Cajun and Piotr the tall husky Russian stood in the same room the meeting had been in yesterday. They introduced themselves and everyone reintroduced or introduced themselevs.
The new recruits had asked if they wanted to join them in a game of cards, Remy obviously the master of the cards joined them while Piotr went off with the older X-Men.
"Now what game is dis dat we will be playin' hommes?" Remy asked.
"Let's play poker." Tabby offered up.
"Remy seconds dat."
"I don't know how to play." Three Jamie's said.
"Neither do I..." Amara said.
"Okay who does now how to play?" Tabby asked, Remy and Bobby were theo only ones raisnig their hands.
"Guess dis means we got t' teach de ot'ers." Remy said. The rest of the afternoon Remy spent teaching the new recruits how to play poker.
"Tabby, Bobby, do y' want t' learn a few tricks dat Remy gots up 'is sleave?"
"Tricks, what kind of tricks?" The two young mutants said eager to learn them.
"Dif'rent kinds o' tricks o' all trades." Remy said as he taught them some poker cheats and such. Rogue walked in on the three of them.
"Well Ah'll beh, the swamprat teachin' youngah children his ways of cheatahn."
"Now now ma cherie, Remy only teachin dem a few pointers..." Remy said with a smug smile.
"Sure sugah, an' Ah was only about ta touch someohne." Rogue said sarcastically. Tabby rolled her eyes at the two of them.
"This is gonna be one helluva summer." Tabby said to Bobby.
"Glad I get to miss parts of it!" Bobby said with a grin.
A/N: Did you expect it to be Remy and Piotr, or did you think of Jubile and Rahne, ha!
