Ch. 8- The Hellfire Club throws a Ball.

The Acolytes had been busy. Very busy in fact. Nearly all the items the Hellfire Club requested had been gathered and now the boys were taking care of the last few things.

Piotr sat down the last large crate that needed to be moved and leaned against it as the metal retracted. He rotated his sore shoulder

"Is dat the last one?"

Remy asked, pulling out the list. Piotr shook his head yes as he walked over to where John was Remy checked off the cargo from the list before he too made his way to John who was in the process of hacking into bank accounts.

"How's it come'in?"

Remy asked, sitting down on a nearby chair.

"A few more and I'll be done mate."

John stated proudly as he continued typing. He never thought he would have to use his computer skills for anything other then disabling alarm systems but now he was glad he had learned how to break into back accounts from a friend of his back in Australia.

Remy watched him work for a moment then marked off another item on the list.

"Alright, Ah'll get the gems tonight den we drive to da Hellfire Club and get our filles back."

He stated as he tucked the list away in his coat. Piotr and John nodded in agreement.

"Right"

"Da"

THE GIRLS-

"Like hold still."

Wanda sat on one of the beds with Kitty next to her. Kitty was looking at the collar around Wanda's neck and trying to figure out how to disable it. Rogue was sitting on the other bed watching the two.

"Yep, it needs a card key to deactivate"

"What dose that mean?"

Wanda asked as she pulled her feet up onto the bed.

"If we can ,like, get a key from one of the guards then we can get these things off."

"Why didn't ya say so?"

Rogue whispered as a guard came in with a tray of bread and three cups of water. While he was leaving the cell Rouge took his key card.

"Ready ta get out of here?"

She asked with a smirk on her lips.

"Like how did you do that?"

"Remy taught me."

Rogue started to hand the card to Kitty but before she could one of the Hellfire members appeared. (here's your cameo) Rogue slowly slid the card into her boot so not to look suspicious.

The woman was dressed in a white suit jacket and short skirt. White knee high boots and white gloves completed her look.

"Your presence is requested in the ball room."

The woman opened the cell door and waited for the three to make their way out of the cell. As they walked down the corridor Rogue asked her who she was. Without looking back the woman answered.

"I'm Anya, or the White Night."

She made a left and opened a dark wooden door. She then ushered the three inside and motioned to the three ball gowns hug up on the far wall. Besides the dresses there was also a table which held accessories.

"I will return for you in an hour, please be ready."

With that the White Night left, locking the door behind her. Rogue looked around the room for a surveillance camera but found none. She pulled the key card out of her boot and handed it to Kitty. Within minutes the collars were disabled. Rogue leaned against one of the walls trying to think of a plan.

"Ah've got an idea."

The other two looked to her, waiting for her to continue.

"How 'bout we act like we don't have our powers?"

Wanda was skeptical.

"So we just pretend we can't fight back, then what?"

"Simple, we wait and when the moment comes that we can escape we take it and run."

Rogue walked towards the dresses looked at them. All three consisted of a white skirt that had black chess pieces stitched around the hem. From the waist up was a white strapless corset that was laced up with black laces. All three dresses were laced up in front.

One the table sat three sets of black gloves and three sets of black high healed boots. Next to the gloves and shoes were hair brushes and makeup for them to use.

"We'll play their game for now, but we'll go by our rules."

Kitty nodded in agreement and went to stand by Rogue.

"At least we like get to dress up."

The other two started laughing at Kitty's joke and the mood lightened considerably. Soon they were dressed and ready for the ball. Rouge handed Kitty the Key card.

"I think ya should reactivate mine Kit."

"Like why?"

" 'Cause with all this skin showing Ah'm a walkin death trap."

Kitty slid the card over Rogue's collar and tested it by tapping her arm. She felt the familiar pull and knew it was working. She then handed the card back to Rogue who slipped it down her top just as the White Knight returned to lead them to the Ball Room which was already full of people.

THE BOYS--

"Dat was too easy."

Remy declared as he jumped off the roof and landed next to Piotr.

"I take it you retrieved the gems comrade."

"Oui."

Remy smirked as he tossed a small black bag up and down.

"Let's go mate's."

John said enthusiastically as he jumped into the driver's seat only to be immediately pulled out by Piotr.

"My friend, we wish to make it there alive and in one piece."

John scowled as he sat in the back and under his breath could be heard,

"A guy crashes into a few things and he never hears the end of it."

Remy, who was sitting in the front passenger seat added,

"You destroyed two cars, three bikes and all we found of da truck was da steering wheel."

Piotr ignored them as they argued over the difference between destroyed and demolished, choosing instead to drive towards the Hellfire Club.

THE BALL--

Rogue, Kitty and Wanda all stood in front of four large throne-like chairs positioned in the back of the Ball room. In the chairs sat the White King and Queen along with the Black King and Queen. The White King stood and motioned for the music to stop.

"We welcome you all and hope that your stays are enjoyable, I would like to take this time it introduce our guests of honor…."

He motioned towards the girls.

"This is Shadow Cat, Rogue, and Scarlet Witch. With their help Magneto's Acolytes will finally be destroyed!"

Applauds erupted from the crowd and music began to play again then suddenly the skylight was shattered and three ropes were fell from the ceiling. Colossus, Pyro, and Gambit slid down and landed, all were ready for battle.

"We've come for da filles, hand dem over and we won't cause any trouble."

The White Queen stood.

"Hand over the files."

Gambit pulled out a disk from his pocket along with a small black bag. He then began to charge with energy.

The White Queen pulled a gun from her throne and pointed it at Rogue.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you."

Gambit retracted the charge not willing to risk Rogue any harm. The White Queen motioned for one of the guards to go and take the gems and disk from the Acolyte.

"You have what you wanted, now let them go."

Piotr's voice was strong and commanding.

The Black King now stood along with his Queen.

"I think not, your services are far too valuable for us to simply let you go."

The Black King was suddenly thrown back by a blue light. Wanda's fingers were crackeling with blue light and Rogue had her arms crossed, and scary look upon her face

"This is what we call Pay back."
