"So." Rogue said. "This place seems huge.
"It is." Jubilee said in agreement.
Remy grabbed Rogues hand
"C'mon Chere, Let's grab a table for day all gone." Rogue nodded and followed him. After they found a nice seat Kitty, Logan, Jubilee, and Peter joined them.
"So Rogue, What happened to you and Bobby?" Kitty asked looking at both her and Jubilee
"We broke up, well we were never REALLY t'gether."
"So, that last thing he did…"
"It bothered meh, but he jus' wanted to tell everyone that we were a couple, I don know why."
"Who knows."
The conversation stopped when a girl with short pink hair and an apron walked up to them. "What'll ya'll be havin' t'night?" The girl said in a northern accent.
She handed them the menus.
"Water, pop, Beer?"
Logan looked at her, and then the kid's. "I think I'll head over to the bar for that."
"Kay, the rest o' you?"
"Water, with lemon." Rogue Replied,
"Meh too. "Remy Added
"I'll have a Root beer." Kitty said with a smile
"And I'll have a coke." Jubilee looked at the girl in disgust,
"I shale have a root beer as well." Peter said in his heavy German accent
"Kay, back in a flash." The waitress said with a wink.
"I don't like her!" Jubilee commented on the young girl that had just waited on them
"You don't like anyone who doesn't have a "Good since of style"" Kitty said using air quotes
"Ha, Very funny!" Jubilee said
"Face it jube, you don't care for anyone that doesn't dress talk, or act the way you like."
Jubilee refused to believe kitty
The lights dimmed and a spot light hit the stage and a voice came overhead.
"This is a practice, check, check, 1,2 1,2. Looks fine Trent!"
The guy on stage and waved and spoke into the microphone. "Hello, Check-ING 1,2. Anna pulled the high end out, I'm still getting some hiss back here." He motioned to the speakers while looking at Anna straddling the beam. She fettled with some weirs and then looked at him in a questioning look. He played with the volume control and then gave her the thumbs up and smiled "Thanks, your a doll!" She shook her fist at him and he laughed
"Wow!" Jubilee said staring at him. "Who is that."
"That's Trent! The singer and the led guitarist and singer in our band." Demona said walking up to the group. "May I sit?" Everyone nodded and she took a seat.
"I'd like to get to know him better, he's gorgeous!"
"Yeah, he gets that a lot."
"He looks familiar." Rogue said "And so dose that Anna girl."
"Hey! Trent!"
The six turned to see a boy with drumsticks sticking out of his pocket come running up and said something in his ear. Trent got a look of horror on his face and looked around the grabbed his head, the looked as if he got an idea. He walked up to the microphone
"Hey Anna, I kinda kneed one more teensy favor from you! Come here."
Anna looked at him in question before jumping off the beam once more and flying up to the stage. He put his arm on her shoulder and looked as if he was trying to explain something to her. She shook her head and started to walk away before he grabbed her arm and got down on his knees and put his hands together as if begging her. She crossed her arms and looked at the ceiling for a minute before she grabbed him by the collar of his shirt and picked him up so she could look him in the eye. She gave him a goofy grin and nodded before she dropped him. He smiled and grabbed a red and black guitar and handed it to her with some sheet music. The look on her face turned form goofy grin to sorry and concerned. She closed her eyes and shook her head. She handed him the guitar and walked off the stage and he started after her.
"Anna Please!"
"Ah, can't Ah got a bar to tend, and things to fix!" she said still walking
"But we NEED you!" Trent said tackling her
"Oh! Get OFF!" she yelled trying to get up
"PLEASE!"
"NO!"
Trent had his arms wrapped around her leg
"I'm desperate!"
"Oh fine!" she looked around until she saw Demona sitting at the table nearby "Hey Die? Can you fill is a bar tender for meh?"
"Uh…Sure?"
"I got to fill in for Dallas, he's sick and.."
"Dallas? YOU! I don't believe it! You really think you can do it?"
"Ah hope so."
"What songs?"
Anna handed her the sheet music
"Oh wow! All of the songs?"
"The ones checked off."
"Better start practicing!"
"Ah know all but this one."
"That's a duzie!"
"Tell meh bout it!" Anna said yanking the sheet out of her hand "And Ah got till eleven!"
"Do you need the entire shift off?"
"Yup!"
"Oh Damn!" Demona said snapping her fingers "And I thought I could get picked up!" she said in a sarcastic tone
"Don't worry none, you can get picked up by guys in bars!"
"Yeah, but that's if your drinkin!"
"Don't worry, Wait a little while, till they're nice and drunk and then…"
"Believe it or not, I'm not trying to rape them Anna!" Demona said laughing
"Well then Ah can't help ya!"
The two laughed and Anna grabbed the guitar from Trent and walked off.
"So Trent!" Demona said pulling a chair from a neighboring table and pulling it up to there table "Come sit!"
Trent walked over and sat down with the chair back against his chest.
"So what can I do ya for?"
"What happened to Dally?" Demona asked
"Turns out he really IS allergic to Rattlesnake and Alligator." He said laughing
"So you gonna make Anna do his stuff?"
"Why not! She owes we a lot! Fifteen years of pain!" He said shaking his fist in the air, his eyes narrow; you could tell he was joking.
"So," Jubilee interrupted. "Are you really the lead singer and guitarist in you band?"
"Yes sir-e bob!"
"And like, what's your band name?" Kitty asked
"Highly recommended!"
The group stared at him wondering if he was joking
"It's an inside joke!" Demona added
"Oh."
"It started with some "Highly recommended" duct tape."
"So, what ARE you making Anna do?" Jubilee asked
"Seven songs of our own, and with out her knowing, one of her own. She's got to study the cords."
"What songs?"
"Some well known ones like "I don't blame you." Uh "Going up?" "Dance, Dance." "Brothers and sisters." "Jump." and some new ones!"
"So dose Anna know she's gonna sing?" Demona asked looking interested
"We'll get her all happy, and then when she sees the crowd cheering, she'll sing!"
"How can you be sure?" Kitty asked
"I KNOW Anna! After fifteen years! I know her like the back of my hand!"
"Oh, I don't think we've had a proper introduction!" Demona said, "This is Trent, I'm Demona, and you are?"
"Rogue" Rogue shook his hand
"Remy LeBeau" Remy saluted with two fingers, a board look on his face
"Jubilee" Jubilee almost jumped out of her seat to shake his hand
"I'm Kitty!" The valley girl said with a huge grin on her face
"And I am Piotr! But my American comrades call me Peter!"
"Nice to meet you all." Trent said
Rogue looked at Remy and wondered why he still had his glasses on.
"Why don't you take off yo' sunglasses? Yo' among friends."
"Okay Chere, fo you." He said taking them off.
"Wow, nice eye's Cajun!" Kitty said
"Yeah, if your into the whole demon thing." Jubilee said with crossed arms. Both Remy and Demona stared at her with a look of hatred. Jubilee didn't care.
"So… what brings you here tonight?" Demona asked
"Like, the professor thinks we needed a break for doing absolutely nothing Kitty giggled
"All we did was shop, watch Tv, swim, and listen to the radio." Jubilee said in boredom
"Yeah, like there wasn't much else."
"There were many other things to do." Rogue disagreed
"Like…" Jubilee asked
"Read…play basketball or tennis, things by yourself." Rogue said looking down to the ground. Kitty tried to change the subject
"So… Demona? What is you power?"
"Flight," she flapped her huge leathery wings, "razor sharp claws" She clenched her hand and long black blades shot out, "and the ability to look like a freak! Your powers?"
"I can shoot a blinding light from my hands, "Fireworks" if you will." Jubilee stuck out her hands and little multi colored lights danced around her fingertips.
"I like, can go intangible," Kitty, said, "I can phase thru like anything, while in this state, I can like walk on air, and if I walk thru any one, I can like totally knock them out, and if I walk thru a machine…it will like, explode!" Kitty stood up and walked right through the table then sat back down.
"I can transform by body to organic steel, when I do transform, I have incredible strength, and am nearly indestructible." Peter said
"Remy have da power to charge t'hings wit kinetic energy." He pulled out a card and held it between thumb and index finger, it started to glow a deep pink and he tossed it over his shoulder, it blew up in mid air, doing no damage. "De more energy Remy put in to de card…The deeper de color." He explained
Demona looked at Rogue
"And your power?"
Rogue sighed
"Ah drain living beings psychic's jus by touchin' em' I, I can't control it."
Demona and Trent looked at Rogue in disbelief
"what is you name?"
"Rogue."
"No…your real name?" Trent Demanded
"I don't use that name."
"Tell me." Demona looked hopeful of something
"Ah can't"
Demona's expression sunk
"I understand."
"Hey Trent? What's you power?" Jubilee asked leaning on the table
"Well…I have the power to control…" He paused and looked around, and evil smile on his face "Ya really wanna know?" he said leaning over the table. The group nodded "My power is…………………………….."
