Jumping out of the way, Rogue barely missed being hit by a fire bird. Panting she crouched keeping low to the ground and trie to observe her trainer looking for signs of weaknesses.
Gradually after much observation and avoidance she saw that when Mars attacked she left her right side open giving her the perfect oppurtunity to atttack.
Grinning as another attack came her way she ran and was within half a milimeter away from touching skin when Mars dissppeared.
Looking around her confused she jumped when she felt the hand rest on her shoulder. She knew she had been caught and turned around ready to face a verbal run down on what was wrong with her, To be surprised.
Mars was smiling, watching her open her mouth Rogue listened to what she had to say. "You did good for your first try. What you really need to do is make sure you never underestimate your apponent. The people you will be going up against will use anything at their disposal. You will never know what they will have instore for you until they hit. Your power is handy but what we will be working on next is your spiritual side which is in need of some guidance. You don't know who you are or what use your power is when you believe it is only stealing people't identies." Even thought she was delievering a speech on what was going to happen to her, Rogue was vaguely reassured by her voice. It held no hidden messages in it, and she wasnt asking anything of her that she herself wasnt ready to give in the first place.
Shaking her head slightly, Mars frowned. "I'm sorry, but with the amount of absorbing you have done lately you have many conflicting personalities in you and we need to get rid of them before they start to control you." Looking thoughtful for a minute she continued, "But i believe there is a way for you to keep certain powers without the people's memories that go with them."
Waving her hand to the left, Rei was surprised to see a Shinto temple appear out of nowere, And her clothes melt away to be replaced by that of a trainee priestess.
Walking up the steps, Rei looked back inquisitively at Rogue, "Here i am Rei Hino, Priestess. And you are my pupil. Come and we shall begin to cleanse you."
Nodding, Rogue smiled her first real smile since she had found out she was a mutant. Walking up the steps behind her she became lost in the silence of the place.
*************************************************************************************************
Barely moving she avoided his attack with a swing of her head. Gambit was not happy, he had been bored playing a game of cards in his house when this little woman had appeared out of no were and told him he was to be trained to fight a battle that would determine the fate of this world. To say he was not impressed was an understatement and he was quiet vocal about it.
Which is why half an hour after she had come looking for him, Saturn decided she had enough.
Raising her hand in the air her Glaive appeared and an eary wind began to blow her raven locks around her pale face.
"Either you come now or your partner dies." Her voice was not as it had been before. It sent a chill up Gambit's spine, for he now relised that he had the choice to go with her. But he had been stubborn and it looked like it might get him hurt for it.
Still he resisted "Who is this partner you speak of? I dont work with people!" His voice rang out laying truth to his claim, But she wasnt going to be put of.
"Rogue!"
"Rogue?" The name seemed to take the wind out of him, and he appeared to almost shrink in size.
"Yes, she who lays claim to your heart. And she who you want to hate." Amusement was faintly evident in her voice but he took no notice.
Raisig up to his full height he looked her or tried to look her in the eyes which was kinda difficult since she was now floating in the air, the wind which shouldn't have been there holding her up.
"She will die if i do not go?"
"Yes, Your lives and that of the rest of your team's all depend on everybodies joint participation. Without you she will not be of full power for the journey ahead and this will ultimately kill her and everybody on this planet. Will you work with us?"
"Yes." And with his agreement he dissappeared in a flash of light.
*************************************************************************************************
"That does it! I know why they wanted me to have you two. Its punishement and i have had enough."
Pointing at the two in question she began to glow a bright orange and started to float up into the air.
"I have never seen two more stubborn people in my life and by the goddess of the moon if i have to suffer through another one of your pathetic excuses for not trusting each other in my exercise's i swear you will face something worse then what i have done so far." In saying this she failed to realise her voice had become cold and was infact quite loud and booming.
At their nods of acceptance she floated to the ground and once again became her happy self.
"Wolverine, Storm if you do not get this then i will have no choice but to implement plan x. This is your last chance and i bleieve it is quite easy. Storm stand in front of Wolverine and fall back trusting that he will catch you."
They got into the positions but nothing happened. Jumping Venus twirled around as she heard footsteps behind her. "Pluto!" Letting out the breath she had been holding "Don't do that to me."
She said.
Pluto smiled her little smile and pointed at the two standing there "What are they supposed to be doing?"
"Trust exercise. This is their last chance. If they dont get this i going to plan x."
Putting a hand to her chest Pluto inhaled, saracstically. "Not plan X?"
"I have to.! I'm going to go check on Ami for a minute. Find out how long this is suppose to last?" Yellow ribbons surrounded her and she was gone.
Walking over to them, Pluto cleared her throat to get their attentions.
Startled they looked towards her and in a whisper said "You do know she plans on using Plan X on you if you don't get this!"
Shrugging their shoulders logan answered in a deep rumble "Why should we care? We dont know what this is but it has got to be better then what she has been putting us through lately."
Storm also voiced her question "What is plan x, anyway?"
Leaning closer until she was in their faces,Pluto continued "It is the elimiantion of all your clothes and then sparring exercises and trust exercises until you know each other inside out."
Startled "no" echoed through the room.
Pluto nodded. "Yes and its not as fun as it sounds. She has used plan X before and Unfortunately it worked to well and well lets just say there was a few people more then angry with her. For some reason it brings out certain feelings in people and if she's feeling that it is not working then she will switch you with somebody else."
Hiding her smile behind her hand at their shocked reactions she once again nodded "So i would suggest to you that you to get over this stubborn streak and get on with your exercises before she gets back."
Nodding for n reason this time she dissappeared.
Storm more then annoyed turned to Wolverine. "It is getting really annoying the way they just pop in and out. I mean come on.." Her speech stopped. Wolverine was looking into her eyes and she wasnt sure of what was swimming in their blue depts. Closer and closer their lips got until.....
*************************************************************************************************
Dragging Avalanche behind her, she towed him into the mansion like a piece of bagage. Jupiter wanted to start training already. The boy had hardly put up any fight and she desperately needed one.
Tossing the by now semi-conscious Lance into a bench she walked to the middle of the glade of trees and placing her hand against her headband that was permanently attached to her head, Three balls of electricity flew from it and went in seperate directions each having somebody to find.
Sittting down on the ground, she sat cross legged and began to chant.
Not ten minutes later, Uranus, Neptune, Mercury and their then trainee students appeared (Shadowcat, nightcrawler, jean, scott and Eric)
Spotting Lance, kitty rushed to his side. Mercury and Neptune stayed a little behind as Uranus made her way to the floating Jupiter.
Wind surrounding her she blew a small attack at Jupiter's closed eye form which was surprisinly caught in one hand before her eyes opened.
Speaking in a tone only used when she needed a fight she asked "You know why i have called, and accept?"
Uranus nodded her head and said "I accept."
Smiling Jupiter nodded "Then let us begin." Turning to Ami she asked "If you would please." Surprsising the students, yet again.
A blue enclosed disk began to appear in the sky with seating. Puting out her hands she began to rise pulling everybody else with her.
Lance was being held by kitty which was were he wanted to be but even he knew that this was not normal behaviour for mutants. The one that had come for him hadn't been big on talking.
Looking up to Kitty for answers she surprised him by laying a finger across his mouth and whispering in his ear "I will explain everything later."
Nodding he turned his attention to the fight that was taking place within the cube.
To say he was amazed would have been an understatement. Flying high in the middle of the cube the two women fought using their hands and feet. Dressed in skin tight body suits that showed of all their movements but also showed him a glimpse of the immense power they held.
Before a thunder bolt struke the blonde one.
The smoke cleared and he saw that the woman hadnt even been cut or anyway hurt by it, infact she seemed to want more. Like she knew something they didnt.
On and on it went until darkness set in above and the supper bell rang out.
Suddenly the stopped, Breathing hard the cube dissappeared and they again floated to the ground.
Ami walked forward and handed them towels that had appeared out of nowere.
Gratefully they took them and wiped away the sweat on their faces. Closing their eyes they began to glow and their body suits were replaced by pairs of jeans and cropped t-shirts that showed of their toned stomachs.
Linking arms with each other (uranus+neptune, and Mercury+Jupiter) they made their way back to the the food.
The mutants stood there as they walked away and looking at each other they uttered one word "Wow" but it said so much.
*************************************************************************************************
Plopping down at the table with the two trays of food, Mina folded her legs underneath her.
Her students had finally got the exercises done and as a treat she was letting them continue their training out here.
Leaning close to Saturn, she said "How your mission go?"
Leaning over Hotaru smiled "I got him."
"So i'm guessing Mars wont be joining us tonight?"
Noding she answered "You got that right, she has alot of work to do."
Grinning because she knew how hard it could be, Mina fnished eating before getting up and saying good night.
Jupiter looked to Netptune for confirmation.
At her nod of agreement, Lita let out a woop of delight shocked everyone in the room to silence.
Getting up of the bench she pulled Ami up and the began to dance around the place, singing "She's coming tomorrow, she's coming tomorrow."
Pluto smiled, and stood up. Clapping her hands together she got everybodies attention.
"It is a speacial ocassion tomorrow night and so it has been decided that all the girls in our group will be having a slumber party, and the guys will get a sleep in the next morning."
Jumping up in joy they clapped their appreciation.
When Pluto sat down Uranus stood up, "But now it is time for bed. I want all of ye ready for training tomorrow at five sharp."
She only smiled and sat back down when she heard their groans of anger.
*************************************************************************************************
Going to her room Mina had her shower and fell into a deep sleep.
When she woke up the next morning she didnt remember anything she had dreamt which was unusual for her but she did notice that she had a puncture mark on her neck, kinda like a hickey except for it looked more bruised. However she did know that Usagi was coming tonight.
*************************************************************************************************
At six pm the next day, they stopped training. They walked into the supper room ready for anything and were surprised to see both Gambit, Wanda and a new comer there. Curiosity got the better of them and they went over to surround them and get to know them better.
What was weird about it was the fact that Rogue was sitting betweem Gambit's legs and leaning back on him without freaking or absorbing his powers and memories.
When asked how this had came about, a reverence entered her voice "Mars. It was amazing." It was easy to see that she had great respect for the fire Guardian.
Gambit smiled his agreement. But inside he was unhappy. He knew about her powers and knew that they could never do more then this and unfortuantley for him he wanted to do alot more.
When the trainers walked in all converstaion stopped. They had really dressed up well at least more so then what they usually wore.
Wearing dress's that ranged from short to ones with long splits and skirts with tops they all looked like they were ready for a night out on the town.
Sitting down they started to eat. As they finised their desert, A loud bike engine could be heard being reved and they rushed outside to see who it was.
One silver motorbike stood in teh courtyard but more could be heard on the way.
The rider wore a black body suit and helmet with wings on either side.
Six more riders appeared, were with the ilver one it was clear she was female these new ones were clearly males.
Taking off her helemt she swung her leg over the bike and brushed her hair so that it didnt look so like she had helmet head.
Before she was crushed under a bunch of girls screaming her name in excitement.
Hugging everyone, she made her way out without answering their questions on who the riders were.
Unfortunately she didnt have to tell one person who stood shocked in the center of the group starring at a mad with white blonde hair escaping from underneath his helemt.
With a whispered cry of "Zechs" She disappeared in a flash.
Walking over to him as he took of his helmet she handed him something and whispered in his ear "I think it would be best if you went after her this time.!"
he said in a quite loud voice "I am not going to loose her again" And in bolt of red lighting he to had dissappeared.
Shock held the scouts voices in check.
One by one the helmets came of the men, and one by one the couts lost their colours. Until the only one with colour in her cheeks was Usagi and that was only because Heero was holding her back against him.
Looking at her watch she saw that it was already ten o'clock.
Looking back into his eyes he saw what she wanted to do and agreeed. He would go talk to the guys later on.
Clapping her hands she walked towards the girls and then past them to the wing they were staying in, the girls and female scouts walking in her wake.
Duo being the optimist introduced themselves to the shocked guys.
"Duo maxwell. God of death." And pointing to the rest of the guys he introduced the in order.
"Wufei Chang. God of War."
"Qutra winner. God of arabian people."
and finally "Trowa Barton. God of the lost."
Noticing their shocked looks he asked "And you would be?"
"Cyclops."
"Avalanche."
"Ice."
"Nightcrawler."
"Spike."
"Wolverine."
"Gambit."
Nodding in the direction of the departing man and the women "He would be Heero Yui. God of the stars." Twisitng his head to the side he realised all the girls were gone. "Where are they going?"
Gambit answered "They are having a sleepover."
Trowa and Quatra hung their heads as they saw the light enter Duo's eyes. It didnt bode well for them.
Rubbing his hands together he grinned evily and said "Well here's the plan then...."
And so they listened and they agreed with what he had to say. I mean they werent getting anwere with the girls and they wanted to know why.
*************************************************************************************************
Wanda, Jupiter and Kitty had all gone to get the food and Usagi and Heero had put out the sleeping bags.
She went to the bathroom and got into her Pajamas (His balck t-shirt and a pair of silk boxer shorts) and was getting ready to flop down on the ground when she was pulled down to sit between Heero's legs. Wrapping arms around her, she leaned her head enquiringly back against his shoulder.
At her Questioning look, he answered "I am not letting you go again." His deep rumbling voice vibrated through her back and raising her hand back she kissed him shyly on the lips before everybody started to arrive. Looking up she saw their surprise at seeing a guy here. Siging she said "You realise you arent supposed to be here?" At his nod of confirmation she continued "But you arent going to leave are you?" At the shake of his head she mumbled "I thought so."
Stretching her legs out in front of her she leaned back and got more comfortable.
As everybody got into their places with bowels of popcorn and chocolate spread out before them she said "Anybody want to play truth or dare?"
As everybodies hand went up she smiled. This was her favourite game.
Starting she picked out Rogue. "Truth or dare."
Considering who it was and how the scouts head's were kinda low she picked "Truth" to be on the safe side.
If anything their heads seemed to get lower and she felt a sickening in the pit of her stomach.
Grinning usagi asked "I know of your power but if you could who would you most want to kiss?"
A bit unerved by the question she answered "Gambit" before she realised what she had said. Blushing she pretended great interest in the carpet.
Only to lift her head in surprise when she heard Usgai say "Granted." one ball of pure energy formed on her hand and she gently sent it over to Rogue were it was absorbed into her.
At Rogue curious look, she answered "You can kiss who you like and touch who you like. I have given you control over your powers." Mumbling slightly she said "At least the ones you know about now." Heero heard and tipped her head up he whispered in her ear "Is she the one?" "Yeah" Smiling he whispered "You are a fast worker!"
before letting her go and going back to starring into space.
-************************************************************************************************
Sitting on a branch up high in the tree beside the window, Wolverine looked in on the girls. He didnt know how he had been convinced to do this.
From what he could tell nothing was happening. I mean they already had one guy in there, granted he looked like he was extremely powerful and stubborn but that was beside the point. Cocking his ears he tried to get closer and felt his mouth drop open in surprise.
His Storm was in there, but not the Storm he recognised. This one had her hair up in a ponytail, white tank top on that clearly outlined her assets and blue shorts that looked remarkably like some of his that had gone missing months ago which outlined her tanned legs to perfection.
And what was worse was that she was wearing this in front of some other guy then him. Clenching his fists he looked down in surprise. His claws were out.
Climbing back down the tree, he turned to the expectant guys. Glaring them down he whispered to them in a threatening voice "I am not going back up there.!" While all the time agreeing. I mean seriously the image of Storm in those clothes was going to haunt him for a long time.
Cyclops turned to the new guy in the group and tried to convince im to go up.."Why don't you go up, ice?"
Shaking his head energentically, he replied "Not a chance in hell. Wanda is in there! That is saying a hell of enough. Your not the one that has to train with her when they find out what we have been doing."
Nodding his agreement, lance added "I had to live with her.It would be better if we just go and have our own party in the pool house. And safter on us to.!"
Looking at one another they decided to go to the pool house, to be honest they werent really in the mood for being killed anyway.
*************************************************************************************************
Curling a pillow underneath herself, Mina fixed herself up before looking in Usagi eye and answering " Dare!" Smiling happily to herself at the answer. Usagi's dare's were always better then her truths.
She was the last to answer after ever one else had chosen truths. Her eyes flashed Cowards to those they lay on.
Usagi was stumped, she could give her something easy but she had always, always been bad at dare's. Suddenly she heard something in her ear, and squeezing his hand in gratitude she smiled evily.
It was perfect and it would speed up so much.
Sitting up slighlty away from Heero, she closed her eyes till they resebled splits. She heard a loud gulping noise from Mina and she began "I dare you to go down to wear the guys are and give a kiss to Wolverine, Gambit, Cyclops and Wu fei." Blood quickly washed into Mina's face and three angry glances were thrown Usagi's way. Getting slowly up, Mina got up and walked over to Usagi. Bending down she said "I will get you back for this.!"
Before walking slowly to the door but not before three women stopped her on the way to warn her to keep away from their men.
If it had been anyone else she would have been laughing histerically.
As she made her way to the boat house she whispered a silent prayer.
Grinning at each other after Mina had gone, Usagi stood up with Heero behind her. Heading out the door she looked back curiously "I want to see this!" Before following Mina. In a rush the girls got up and followed.
*************************************************************************************************
Hearing a knock on the door, Cyclops got up to answer and was surprised to find A nervous looking Mina on the other side. He thought he heard her whisper "God for give me, and forget this." Before her lips landed on his. It was over before anything could be felt and he looked at her in surprise. Looking at the hand that was pointing behind her, he realised why. All the girls were standing not two meters behind her, hands covering their mouths trying to stem the sound of their laughing.
Bending he whispered in her ear "Dare?" At her nod, he continued "You want to come in?" Blushing wildly, he gestured for her to come in.
As she walked in he was about to close the door when a slippered foot slipped in and stopped the door from closing. Opening it he looked into a pair of emotionless eyes and nodded silently answering the unspoken question. Opening the door he wasnt surprised to see him let Usagi go before him.
Five minutes later everyone was in.

At six pm the next day, they stopped training. They walked into the supper room ready for anything and were surprised to see both Gambit, Wanda and a new comer there. Curiosity got the better of them and they went over to surround them and get to know them better.
What was weird about it was the fact that Rogue was sitting betweem Gambit's legs and leaning back on him without freaking or absorbing his powers and memories.
When asked how this had came about, a reverence entered her voice "Mars. It was amazing." It was easy to see that she had great respect for the fire Guardian.
Gambit smiled his agreement. But inside he was unhappy. He knew about her powers and knew that they could never do more then this and unfortuantley for him he wanted to do alot more.
When the trainers walked in all converstaion stopped. They had really dressed up well at least more so then what they usually wore.
Wearing dress's that ranged from short to ones with long splits and skirts with tops they all looked like they were ready for a night out on the town.
Sitting down they started to eat. As they finised their desert, A loud bike engine could be heard being reved and they rushed outside to see who it was.
One silver motorbike stood in teh courtyard but more could be heard on the way.
The rider wore a black body suit and helmet with wings on either side.
Six more riders appeared, were with the ilver one it was clear she was female these new ones were clearly males.
Taking off her helemt she swung her leg over the bike and brushed her hair so that it didnt look so like she had helmet head.
Before she was crushed under a bunch of girls screaming her name in excitement.
Hugging everyone, she made her way out without answering their questions on who the riders were.
Unfortunately she didnt have to tell one person who stood shocked in the center of the group starring at a mad with white blonde hair escaping from underneath his helemt.
With a whispered cry of "Zechs" She disappeared in a flash.
Walking over to him as he took of his helmet she handed him something and whispered in his ear "I think it would be best if you went after her this time.!"
he said in a quite loud voice "I am not going to loose her again" And in bolt of red lighting he to had dissappeared.
Shock held the scouts voices in check.
One by one the helmets came of the men, and one by one the couts lost their colours. Until the only one with colour in her cheeks was Usagi and that was only because Heero was holding her back against him.
Looking at her watch she saw that it was already ten o'clock.
Looking back into his eyes he saw what she wanted to do and agreeed. He would go talk to the guys later on.
Clapping her hands she walked towards the girls and then past them to the wing they were staying in, the girls and female scouts walking in her wake.
Duo being the optimist introduced themselves to the shocked guys.
"Duo maxwell. God of death." And pointing to the rest of the guys he introduced the in order.
"Wufei Chang. God of War."
"Qutra winner. God of arabian people."
and finally "Trowa Barton. God of the lost."
Noticing their shocked looks he asked "And you would be?"
"Cyclops."
"Avalanche."
"Ice."
"Nightcrawler."
"Spike."
"Wolverine."
"Gambit."
Nodding in the direction of the departing man and the women "He would be Heero Yui. God of the stars." Twisitng his head to the side he realised all the girls were gone. "Where are they going?"
Gambit answered "They are having a sleepover."
Trowa and Quatra hung their heads as they saw the light enter Duo's eyes. It didnt bode well for them.
Rubbing his hands together he grinned evily and said "Well here's the plan then...."
And so they listened and they agreed with what he had to say. I mean they werent getting anwere with the girls and they wanted to know why.
*************************************************************************************************
Wanda, Jupiter and Kitty had all gone to get the food and Usagi and Heero had put out the sleeping bags.
She went to the bathroom and got into her Pajamas (His balck t-shirt and a pair of silk boxer shorts) and was getting ready to flop down on the ground when she was pulled down to sit between Heero's legs. Wrapping arms around her, she leaned her head enquiringly back against his shoulder.
At her Questioning look, he answered "I am not letting you go again." His deep rumbling voice vibrated through her back and raising her hand back she kissed him shyly on the lips before everybody started to arrive. Looking up she saw their surprise at seeing a guy here. Siging she said "You realise you arent supposed to be here?" At his nod of confirmation she continued "But you arent going to leave are you?" At the shake of his head she mumbled "I thought so."
Stretching her legs out in front of her she leaned back and got more comfortable.
As everybody got into their places with bowels of popcorn and chocolate spread out before them she said "Anybody want to play truth or dare?"
As everybodies hand went up she smiled. This was her favourite game.
Starting she picked out Rogue. "Truth or dare."
Considering who it was and how the scouts head's were kinda low she picked "Truth" to be on the safe side.
If anything their heads seemed to get lower and she felt a sickening in the pit of her stomach.
Grinning usagi asked "I know of your power but if you could who would you most want to kiss?"
A bit unerved by the question she answered "Gambit" before she realised what she had said. Blushing she pretended great interest in the carpet.
Only to lift her head in surprise when she heard Usgai say "Granted." one ball of pure energy formed on her hand and she gently sent it over to Rogue were it was absorbed into her.
At Rogue curious look, she answered "You can kiss who you like and touch who you like. I have given you control over your powers." Mumbling slightly she said "At least the ones you know about now." Heero heard and tipped her head up he whispered in her ear "Is she the one?" "Yeah" Smiling he whispered "You are a fast worker!"
before letting her go and going back to starring into space.
-************************************************************************************************
Sitting on a branch up high in the tree beside the window, Wolverine looked in on the girls. He didnt know how he had been convinced to do this.
From what he could tell nothing was happening. I mean they already had one guy in there, granted he looked like he was extremely powerful and stubborn but that was beside the point. Cocking his ears he tried to get closer and felt his mouth drop open in surprise.
His Storm was in there, but not the Storm he recognised. This one had her hair up in a ponytail, white tank top on that clearly outlined her assets and blue shorts that looked remarkably like some of his that had gone missing months ago which outlined her tanned legs to perfection.
And what was worse was that she was wearing this in front of some other guy then him. Clenching his fists he looked down in surprise. His claws were out.
Climbing back down the tree, he turned to the expectant guys. Glaring them down he whispered to them in a threatening voice "I am not going back up there.!" While all the time agreeing. I mean seriously the image of Storm in those clothes was going to haunt him for a long time.
Cyclops turned to the new guy in the group and tried to convince im to go up.."Why don't you go up, ice?"
Shaking his head energentically, he replied "Not a chance in hell. Wanda is in there! That is saying a hell of enough. Your not the one that has to train with her when they find out what we have been doing."
Nodding his agreement, lance added "I had to live with her.It would be better if we just go and have our own party in the pool house. And safter on us to.!"
Looking at one another they decided to go to the pool house, to be honest they werent really in the mood for being killed anyway.
*************************************************************************************************
Curling a pillow underneath herself, Mina fixed herself up before looking in Usagi eye and answering " Dare!" Smiling happily to herself at the answer. Usagi's dare's were always better then her truths.
She was the last to answer after ever one else had chosen truths. Her eyes flashed Cowards to those they lay on.
Usagi was stumped, she could give her something easy but she had always, always been bad at dare's. Suddenly she heard something in her ear, and squeezing his hand in gratitude she smiled evily.
It was perfect and it would speed up so much.
Sitting up slighlty away from Heero, she closed her eyes till they resebled splits. She heard a loud gulping noise from Mina and she began "I dare you to go down to wear the guys are and give a kiss to Wolverine, Gambit, Cyclops and Wu fei." Blood quickly washed into Mina's face and three angry glances were thrown Usagi's way. Getting slowly up, Mina got up and walked over to Usagi. Bending down she said "I will get you back for this.!"
Before walking slowly to the door but not before three women stopped her on the way to warn her to keep away from their men.
If it had been anyone else she would have been laughing histerically.
As she made her way to the boat house she whispered a silent prayer.
Grinning at each other after Mina had gone, Usagi stood up with Heero behind her. Heading out the door she looked back curiously "I want to see this!" Before following Mina. In a rush the girls got up and followed.
*************************************************************************************************
Hearing a knock on the door, Cyclops got up to answer and was surprised to find A nervous looking Mina on the other side. He thought he heard her whisper "God for give me, and forget this." Before her lips landed on his. It was over before anything could be felt and he looked at her in surprise. Looking at the hand that was pointing behind her, he realised why. All the girls were standing not two meters behind her, hands covering their mouths trying to stem the sound of their laughing.
Bending he whispered in her ear "Dare?" At her nod, he continued "You want to come in?" Blushing wildly, he gestured for her to come in.
As she walked in he was about to close the door when a slippered foot slipped in and stopped the door from closing. Opening it he looked into a pair of emotionless eyes and nodded silently answering the unspoken question. Opening the door he wasnt surprised to see him let Usagi go before him.
Five minutes later everyone was in.
