Reviews:

To kyo-kitty: Thank you very much. Well, he does have that healing factor. . . lol.

To Cat2Fat900: Thank you. Oh now I feel so much better about it, not! You are bringing matches with you after all. . . I miss you already! Hurry back! Getting Scott drunk was fun! Well, it was either Bobby put it out, or it burnt down the studio, again. . . And Raven was already in a bad mood. Evan should learn to keep his mouth shut. Assassins? Oi, you are worse of than I thought. Don't worry, I'll protect you from the MWTPWJ. I don't know where the idea of Rahm came from originally. I always thought she had a crush on Roberto in the show, but it seems that most people see her with Sam.

To Crash Slayer: Yes, well, I must admit I was a little worried myself, but I wasn't going to e-mail you a notification. . . Yeah, well, they are my favorite couple anyway. Synchronized sentences are good. Especially when the hurt Scott. Just cause he's Russian doesn't mean he can't make facial expressions. It's not so much Piotr as the lute was not made, um, very well. It was out of tune. Puppetry, nope, didn't make it up, just spelled it wrong. Lol. Hmm, plot hole? No, seriously, Logan started the solo and then the band joined him. I just wrote it confusing. Chinese water torture (shivers) that would get to me. I have a dripping faucet in my bathroom and it drives me nuts. Well, mostly I watched it cause I was obsessed with the X-Men movie, and I used to watch WB a lot in the evenings and saw a commercial for it. So, I thought, Why not? Then, I almost stopped watching it, because Rogue wasn't in it, or Gambit either, but I saw her in the credits so I knew she'd be there. . . Raven and Lightning were actually made up before the show, but I figured Evo fits them better than TAS. Thanks for the review.

To Sweety8587: Thank you. Lightning has a healing factor, so I don't think anyone should worry about him. I mean, after all, Raven's only killed him once, or twice. . . She put him back together again! Oh, good, that really helps with understanding the story. :D

To Lyrit Liltrick: You seem to be the only one that caught that. It's a long story and yes I will be writing their story out, but first I have to finish their parent's story. Like Raven would ever feel guilty about anything. Thank you kindly.

To Tigerlilly1234: Thank you, it is fun watching him get beat up. He does have that healing factor after all. . .

To Heartsyhawk: Thank you very much. :)

A/N: I was actually surprised at how many of you cared about Lightning getting beat up. Don't worry, though, he's used to it. After all, look at who he's dating. . . And most of you enjoyed it anyway.


Remy Hood

Scene 8: Rescuing Friar Kurt.

Lightning walks in looking like nothing happened. Raven walks behind him smiling. The cast sighs in relief. "Good Morning, peoples." Raven says and glances at the buffet table where there are several boxes of pizza. Fred is standing there, staring in amazement at all the pizzas. "Ooh, pizza!" Raven says and hurries over. "I love pizza." She picks up a slice and puts it on a paper plate, grabs her trusting bottle of cayenne pepper and starts covering the pizza slice in it.

Lightning has also gone to the pizza and starts eating a slice, without using a plate. Raven raises an eyebrow at him. "Oh, this from a girl who uses TK to lift her fork at dinner?"

Remy whispers in Rogue's ear, "See, Remy knew t'ey'd like pizza. Everyone likes pizza."

Rogue rolls her eyes, "So, ya were right about one thing!"

Fred has grabbed a box, or twenty and went to his corner to eat them. Kitty walks up to the remaining pizzas, "There had better, like, be a vegetarian pizza here."

"Right here, Katya." Piotr says pointing it out for her.

"Oh, thank you, dear." she says, cheering up.

Even Wanda and Pyro are at the table. They reach for the same slice of pizza at the same time. Their hands touch. "Oh, sorry, mate." Pyro says.

"No, no, it was my fault." He takes the slice anyway and Wanda shrugs and takes another out of the same box. She sighs, he likes the same kind of pizza as me. . . all the more reason to chase him. . .We'll be fighting over the last slice. . .

Pietro and Evan are fighting over the best toppings. Xavier shakes his head and goes to grab a slice. However, Magneto has reached for the same slice. Soon they are arguing over it.

Rogue sighs, "Just one scene without a fight. Is that too much ta ask fer?"

"Oui," Remy laughs at her, "Especially when ma chere starts half of t'em."

"That's it! Swamp Rat!" She starts chasing him around with a slice of pepperoni pizza in her hand.

Raven rolls her eyes. "I think now would be a good time to get to work, Lights! Camera! Action!"

Using her telekinesis, Raven lifts Lance to the top of a scaffold. Toad hops up onto the other side. The scene begins as Lance watches Todd hammering something. They look down and Sabretooth grabs the rope and ties a noose into it. "Well, Lance," Sabretooth growls, "every thing's rigged up and all set."

"Yep," Lance replies. "it's one of the prettiest scaffolds you ever built, Sheriff."

Toad hops down next to a lever. "Sheriff, don't you reckon we oughta give that trapdoor a test?" He pulls the lever.

Sabretooth is testing out the strength of the noose. He is also standing on top of the trapdoor. He falls straight down and gets stuck in the hole, groaning. He drums his fingers against the floor of the scaffold. "Criminently. Is that even a word?"

"Who cares," Raven says, pushing a button.

Sabretooth starts twitching from the electricity flowing through his body. He obviously forgot about the electric shock device in his costume. "Crimi. . .Crimi. . . Criminently. . . Now I know why your mama called you nuts."

"Alms. Alms for the poor," an old beggar, or Remy in the old beggar costume from Bobby's birthday party, calls out, walking up with cup in hand and his cane. "Do me old ears hear t'e melodious voice of t'e sheriff?"

Sabretooth smiles, loving the flattery. "That's right, old man," he says, climbing out of the hole, still slightly twitching.

Remy the beggar taps his cane on the scaffold, "What be going on here?"

Sabretooth grabs the handle of the trapdoor and lifts it back up. "We're gonna hang Friar Kurt."

Remy lifts his glasses up and cries out in his normal voice, "No! Hang Friar!" He realizes his mistake and converts back to the old beggar's voice and replaces his glasses, "Hang Friar Kurt?"

Toad has hopped back up to the scaffold again. "You betcha." He says, while Lance points his crossbow at Remy. "At dawn, yo. And maybe it'll even be a double hanging."

Lance claps his mouth over Toad's, "Shh, shh! Dummy up, you dummy."

"A double hanging, eh?" Remy says, placing his hand on his chin as if in deep thought. "Who'll be t'e ot'er one t'at gets t'e rope?" He holds his finger out thoughtfully.

Lance, having climbed very carefully down from the scaffold, walks up to him and points his crossbow in Remy's face. "Sheriff, he's getting too all-fired nosy."

"Oh, I didn't mean not'ing." Remy says, backing up slightly and shaking his head. "But, um, couldn't t'ere be trouble if Remy Hood shows up?"

Todd laughs, "Well, wouldn't you know, Sheriff, he guessed it!"

"Toady, button your beak!" Lance yells at him.

"Ah no need to worry." Remy says, reassuringly. "The sheriff be too crafty, too clever, and too smart for the like of him, says I."

Sabretooth smiles smugly during this, "Ya hear that, Toady? For being blind, he sure knows a good man when he sees one, says I." He sticks his nose up into the air. Everyone, except Raven of course, starts laughing and Sabretooth growls at them threateningly.

"Good man?" Bobby nearly chokes laughing.

Lance, seeing murder in Raven's eyes, decides to calm down and continue with the story. "Sheriff, I still got a feeling that that snoopy old codger knows to much." Remy starts sneaking off.

Sabretooth is trying another knot, just to be safe, "Oh, shut up, Lance. He's just a harmless old blind beggar."

Lance looks from the sheriff to the beggar who is about to leave the castle gates, crying, "Alms. Alms for the poor. Alms. Alms for the poor."

On the other side of the gate, Piotr is waiting for Remy. "Rem, ve cannot let them hang Friar Kurt."

Remy hurries over to him. "A jailbreak tonight is t'e only chance he's got." Remy removes his glasses.

"A jailbreak?" asks Piotr. "There is no vay you can get him."

Remy pulls of the beggar hat, "We've got to, Piotr, or Friar Kurt dies at dawn."

The scene fades to one of the castle, where Sabretooth is sleeping by the prison door. Fred, Pietro, and X23 stand guard in front of another door. Outside the wall, Remy and Piotr climb a ladder over it. It's a very study ladder. They peek over the wall at the scaffold, then at Fred, Pietro, and X23. Then the watch as Hank and Mastermind wander the top of the wall, with bows in hand. Piotr looks at Remy, who points at the sleeping Sabretooth, and Lance and Toad, who are patrolling nearby. They climb onto a ledge and Piotr knocks some of the brick off the castle. They freeze at it falls, then run quickly to a thatched roof of some random building inside the castle gates. The climb down quickly and quietly. The make their way to an arch and hide against the wall as Lance struts by with his crossbow. Lance is really starting to like his crossbow. Piotr and Remy breath sighs of relief as he walks by, not noticing them. They hide behind a low wall as Toad walks up to it. He sets the handle of his cardboard ax on the ground hard. Piotr comes out above the wall and reaches to grab him when suddenly, Toad cries out, "One o'clock and all's well!" Piotr hides quickly.

The castle clock chimes three times. Sabretooth wakes up, scratching his chest. "Toady, you'd better set your brains ahead a couple of hours."

"Yes, sir," Toad says, "Does that there mean adding, or subtracting?"

"Oh, let's forget it." Sabretooth says, much annoyed.

"Yes, sir, Sheriff. Sir." Toad replies, walking off.

"Toady, how can I sleep with you yelling, 'all's well,' all the time?" Sabretooth asks. He places his hands behind his head.

Lance comes up to him, "Sheriff, everything ain't 'all's well'. I got a feeling in my bones there's gonna be a jailbreak any minute." He absently points his crossbow in random directions. One of this directions are at Sabretooth's head.

"Criminently, Lance!" Sabretooth snarls, moving the point of the arrow out of his face. "Point that peashooter the other way."

"Don't you worry none, Sheriff. The safety's on Old Kitty." Kitty groans. He pats it to prove his point, which of course sets the arrow off and it flies around, ricocheting off the walls. Sabretooth jumps up to avoid getting hit. He has to jump, duck, and basically dance to avoid the arrow. Needless to say, Wolverine is deeply enjoying this humiliating performance. Even lance has to jump out of the arrow's way.

"What in tarnation you trying to do? You Birdbrain!" screams Sabretooth. He slams his fist on Lance's helmeted head.

Lance swaggers for a moment before he can think up his line, "Just doing my duty, Sheriff," he says slowly.

"You and that itchy trigger-finger of yours."Sabretooth growls.

Meanwhile, Toad is reaching the spot where he had been standing earlier. Piotr peeks out over the wall and grabs him. Toad tries to scream, but it's muffled by Piotr's hand. They tie him up.

Lance hears it, "Hey, did you hear that?"

"Sure did, Lance" Sabretooth says. "There's something funny going on around here. Come on." He waves for Lance to follow him. "You cover me."

Lance follows with his trusty crossbow. He isn't paying attention to where he's going and pricks Sabretooth in the butt with the arrow. Sabretooth snarls and turns around, "Wait a minute. Is the safety on Old Kitty?"

"You bet it is, Sheriff." Lance says patting the crossbow again.

"That's what I'm afraid of." he growls. "You go first."

Lance leads on and Sabretooth pulls out his cardboard sword. "All right, you in there, come out with your hands up."

Meanwhile, Remy is putting on Toad's outfit and a mask of Toad's face.

"Yeah, reach for the sky." Lance calls.

"You just watch this 'performance,' partner." Remy whispers to Piotr.

"Be careful, Rem." Piotr whispers back.

Remy walks out in his Toad costume, holding Toad's ax. "Jehoshaphat, Lance. Put t'at peashooter down."

"Aw, shucks, Lance," Sabretooth says, snapping his fingers in frustration, "it's only Toady." He sheaths his sword. "And criminently. Get back to your patrol." He points at the area Lance is supposed to be patrolling. "On the double, get!" He kicks Lance.

Lance hurries off, "I'm a-getting! I'm a-getting!"

Remy follows Sabretooth back to his chair by the prison gate. "That, Lance," Sabretooth complains, "He's getting everybody edgy. Nothing's gonna happen. That blue friar is gonna dangle from the gallows come daybreak." Piotr watches as they walk away. Remy winks at him. Sabretooth yawns while Remy pulls the chair up behind him.

"Sheriff," Remy says. He takes Sabretooth's arm and sits him down. "Why don't you just sit yourself down here kind of cozy-like?"

"Well, thank you, Toady." Sabretooth says, settling down.

Remy reaches a finger and shuts Sabretooth's eyes. "Just close your sleepy little eyeballs. T'e sandman's a-coming." He props Sabretooth's feet up on a stool. Sabretooth snores. Remy rubs his hands together. "Why don't you, uh, let Toady loosen that belt?" He starts to loosen it to get the keyring. He starts to sing, "Rock-a-bye Sheriff, just you relax. . ." as he does. He takes the keys and heads to the door, humming the tune and patting Sabretooth on the shoulder. He puts the key in the lock and turns it. It makes a click which startles Remy and makes Sabretooth snort. Remy turns to hide the key and face Sabretooth.

However, Sabretooth doesn't open his eyes, "Oh, Toady, that's mighty sweet. Sing it one more time, would you?"

"Rock-a-bye, Sheriff. . ." Remy starts as he waves Piotr over. Piotr slides in the door and reaches for the key. Remy hands it to him and he slams the door.

"Wait a minute! Jailbreak! Jailbreak!" Lance calls, setting off his arrow. "I heard it! I heard it, Sheriff! The door! The door!"

Sabretooth jumps up to dodge the arrow. Piotr is nowhere to be seen. Lance runs over and Remy trips him with the cardboard ax. He falls at Sabretooth's feet. "Now, for the last time, no more false alarms!" Sabretooth grows. He kicks Lance hard enough to send him flying across the courtyard.

"Ow!" Lance screams.

Remy whispers to Piotr, through the door. "Now, you release Friar Kurt and t'e ot'ers and Remy'll drop in on t'e Royal treasury." They part ways.

Piotr climbs up a set of stone stairs. He runs by a door and then stops in his tracks. The sign on the door reads, "Sentenced to death for treason, Prince John." He looks in the window and sees Kurt, all chained up.

He unlocks the door and walk in. Kurt slowly looks up and opens his eyes. "Oh, Little Piotr! It can't be!"

Piotr walks up to him and unlocks his chains, "Shh, quiet. Ve are busting out of here."

"Danken Sie Gott!" (1) Kurt cries out. "My prayers have been answered."

The rest of the town is sleeping in their shared cell. That is until the door opens and Piotr and Kurt start letting them out of their chains. Logan stretches, while Kurt help Ray up. Piotr reluctantly lets Duncan and Taryn out of their chains. Kurt helps Jean and the Jaime clones out of theirs, and the children.

Bobby looks up, "I'm ready. Where are the bad guys?"

"Take it easy, son," Kurt says quietly, holding him back.

Piotr releases more Jaime clones. Logan looks out the window and smiles. He motions Piotr over. They look out. Remy is carefully climbing up the tower to Pyro's room. He throws a grappling hook up to the balcony. It catches and he climbs the rope up into the room.

Inside the room, Pyro lies sleeping in his underwear and Charles' crown. Scott lies in a small toddler sized bed at the foot of Pyro's California King sized one. Scott's bed is more of a cradle, because it rocks. Scott is feeling extremely humiliated. Click, Pietro has taken a picture for future blackmailing.

Both Pyro and Scott are pretending to snore. "Remy Hood!" Pyro cries out in his sleep, startling Remy. "I'll get even. I'll get. . ." He rolls over, hugging his bags of chocolate coins. The whole room is full of bags of chocolate coins.

Remy hops up onto the ledge of the balcony and shoots an arrow with a rope tied on it into the prison cell. Piotr grabs it and runs it through a metal hook. Then he runs to the window and shoot the arrow back to Remy. Remy has already tied the other end of the rope to a fixture above Pyro's elaborate bed. When the arrow hits, slightly above the other end of the rope, Pyro jumps up with a start. He settles back down, not noticing anything.

Remy ties the two ends of the rope together and then ties the bags of money, one by one, to the rope while Piotr and Logan pull it in a circle. "It's Remy Hood I. . . I want. . ." Pyro mutters in his sleep. He rolls over and his feet hang over the edge of the bed. Pyro starts laughing. Scott's breath is tickling his feet. Remy notices this nervously. Pyro keeps laughing and suddenly kicks Scott in the face and then curls up.

Scott wakes up with a start. He sits up and looks around. Remy climbs under Pyro's bed. Scott glares at Pyro's feet. He settles back down in his tiny bed and it starts rocking. Remy rocks it with his foot as his ties more money on the rope. The money travels down into the prison cell, where Kurt is hugging it and laughing. "Praise ze Lord and pass ze tax rebate!" He hands Duncan and Taryn a bag of the more melted chocolate coins.

Chocolate has seeped through them and gets on Taryn's hands. She screams in anger and drops hers.

Raven glares at her. "Pick it up!"

Taryn almost refuses but one more glance at Raven's glowing eyes makes her bend down and pick up the bag.

"Come on. Follow me," Piotr says to the "townspeople." They all trudge down the stairs to the door. Sabretooth is still sleeping. Piotr glances up and see a bag has ripped. Coins are falling out. Some of them hit Sabretooth, waking him up. Before he can shout, Piotr pulls him into the jail.

Lance hears a muffled scream and hurries over, but Piotr has quickly dressed as Sabretooth and sat in his chair. "Now, Sheriff. Now, don't get you dander up," he whispers, "But I still got a feeling that. . ." and that is when Lance looks up to see Piotr's face instead of Sabretooth's.

Piotr grabs him by the throat and picks him up off the ground. "Friar, get going. Hurry." Piotr whispers. The prisoners hurry on their way, hiding from the guards as best they can.

The clock chimes four. Remy hears it and decides to hurry up. He grabs the last bag of coins that is on the floor and ties it to the rope. Then he notices one behind Pyro's pillow and grabs it. Pyro hits hard, but doesn't wake up. Instead he holds his ear and sucks his thumb. This sound however wakes Scott up. He looks over at Pyro, just as Remy sees one last bag, huddled in Pyro's arms. He lifts Pyro's arm and tries to take the bag, but it's caught and pulls Pyro's thumb from his mouth. Finally, Remy pulls the bag out and Pyro sticks his thumb back in his mouth.

Scott has watched this and his head goes from John to Remy and back as Remy runs off and hangs onto the rope. Scott grabs the last bag and Pyro's leg. The bag rips, sending chocolate coins everywhere. Pyro wakes up as his bed drags across the room. He screams as it hits the balcony. He is almost pulled off, but he grabs on screaming, "Guards! Guards! My gold!"

The remaining prisoners are pulling tight on the rope as Hank and Mastermind ready their arrows. Remy notices the rope has stopped and starts crossing it hand over hand, avoiding arrows. Pyro's hands slip and they are all pulled hard into the prison cell. Pyro hits the outside of the window and Scott accidentally lets go. Pyro falls to the ground in a heap. Fortunately, Pietro had laid a soft fluffy mattress there so he wouldn't get hurt. He crawls up to his feet. "Oh, no, no, no. They're getting away with me gold!" he screams as the last of the prisoners run out, Amara is at the very end. He runs over to the door and slams it shut. "Guards! Guards! To the Jail!" Pietro, Fred, and X23 head over racing directly at him. "Guards, halt! Stop! Desist!" he tries. None of them work. Fred hits him full on, breaking the door and pinning Pyro between the door and Freddy. Then they run head on into the wall, breaking it.

Remy runs out, "Everybody, t'is way!" He points and they run, dodging arrows. One hits Ray's crutch. Another hits Evan's bone plate and bounces off.

Bobby shoots an arrow and Remy shoots one behind him. Remy's arrow catches both Hank and Mastermind's cloaks and pins them to a wall. Bobby thinks he did it. With a smug look, he turns and runs with Jubilee and Evan close behind. Logan shields some Jaime clones from the arrows with his lute. Angel tries to bring a huge ax on Duncan's head, but Kurt ports them out of the way in time. "And why couldn't I have just ported out of the jail cell?" Kurt asks.

Raven groans. Lightning pats her shoulder. "I'll handle this one." He turns to Kurt and screams, "Because we said you couldn't! Now, on with the play!"

Fred, Pietro, and X23 have pulled themselves out of the rumble and are now chasing them too. A basket of barrels happens to be in their path. Remy releases the rope and Piotr pushes the cart up. All the barrels roll towards the guards. Kurt is lifting the last of the Jaime clones into a wagon, when Remy runs up. "That's all of them. Let's get going." Remy lowers the drawbridge and runs to the wagon.

"This is not a hayride. Let us move it out of here." Piotr starts pulling it while Kurt pushes it. Remy runs after them.

"On to Sherwood Forest!" Kurt yells.

That's when Jean sees Amara still running towards them beyond the castle walls. "Stop! My baby!"

"Mama, Mama! Wait for me!" Amara calls, clutching her doll and running.

Remy stops in his tracks and goes back for her. Angel cuts the portcullis down and Remy is trapped. He pushes her out under it before it shuts completely.

"We got him now," Sabretooth calls.

"Keep going. Don't worry about me." Remy tells Amara and Piotr. The guards are closing in, so Remy climbs the portcullis and jumps to a rope, hitting Sabretooth in the stomach and knocking him down. He barely makes it to the wall. Rogue, off stage, screams in fright. Remy smirks at her as he climbs up to safety. "A little worried about Remy, chere?"

"No!" she lies, trying to cover her red face. "I, I, uh, I saw a mouse."

Kitty, not realizing Rogue was lying, screams, "a mouse! Where? Somebody catch it! Get it out! But don't kill it!"

Raven looks at her and rolls her eyes. "The play? Anyone remember it?" Everyone was staring at Rogue and Kitty.

"Oh, yeah," Hank says and he pulls an arrow back at Remy. Mastermind does too. Remy ducks and both arrows narrowly miss the other archer. Remy jumps and barely lands on a lower wall. Rogue feels her heart skip a beat, but manages not to scream as Remy starts climbing up the tower to Pyro's room again.

Sabretooth chases after him with a lit torch. Pyro watches the torch in a daze. "This time we got him for sure," Sabretooth says as he climbs the stairs to Pyro's room.

Remy climbs up the balcony and shuts the curtains. He turns around to find Sabretooth waiting for him. Sabretooth waves the torch at him, but instead it catches the curtains on fire, as Remy runs behind them. He finds a chair and Sabretooth hits the chair with the torch. The chair is soon on fire along with the rug, Sabretooth is standing on. Remy pulls the rug out from under Sabretooth, who lands on his butt. Remy races to the curtains and jumps through a hole in the fire. Sabretooth is soon behind, but can't quite get through the curtains as quickly. Remy races up to the attic. There's a window. He climbs out as the fire burst through the room, setting the wooden floor ablaze. The fire is burning the roof and Remy's only choice is to jump.

"Shoot him!" Pyro calls from another window.

Down below, across the moat, Remy can see Piotr and Bobby watching him. Remy jumps into the moat.

"Kill him! Kill him!" Pyro calls. His guards shoot arrows at the water.

Remy is swimming as fast as he can. Arrows hit the water around him. One hits what looks like his head and he falls into the water. Pyro and Scott watch from above in pleasure as bubbles rise and nothing else.

"Come on, Rem. Come on." Piotr calls.

"He's just gotta make it," Bobby says, scared.

Remy's hat floats to the top with an arrow through it. Rogue, who can't watch anymore, runs to her dressing room.

"No! No. No." cries Piotr.

"Scott! He's finished! Done for!" Pyro cries happily, dancing around, singing and laughing.

Scott looks on in disbelief. Bobby pulls on Piotr's shirt, "He's gonna make it, isn't he, Little Piotr?" Tears well up in Piotr's eyes, because Pietro has sprayed mace into his face. He gulps and looks down at Bobby. Then, he looks back up. Bobby gets the message and gulps as well. He hugs Piotr's arm and starts to cry. Pietro has sprayed Bobby's face too. "Hey, what's that?" he suddenly asks. In the water is a small reed, moving towards them. Piotr has turned away, not wishing to see. But Bobby insists, "Little Piotr, look it! Look it!" Bobby races to the edge of the water and Piotr follows quickly. He looks at the reed closer, when water sprays into his face.

"Hey! Vhat the. . ." he says, shielding his face with his arm. Remy's head pops out of the water, with the reed in his mouth. Piotr laughs. "Oh, man, did you have me vorried, Rem." He picks up his hat and wipes his forehead. "I thought you vere long gone."

Remy hits the water out of his ears. Bobby race to the water and jumps on Remy. "Ah, not Remy Hood! He could've swum twice that far, huh, Mr. Remy Hood, sir?" Remy looks at him sceptically.

Scott sees this and yells out, "Look, Sire! Look! He's made it! He got away again!" Pyro runs over to look.

"A pox on the phony King of Bayville! Oo-de-lally! Oo-de-lally!" Remy and Bobby yell up at them at the same time. Scott screams and huddles in the fetal position, sucking his thumb.

Pyro rolls his eyes at him. "Oh, no. It's so miserably unfair!" he screams and throws a tantrum.

Scott, having recovered, says, "Well, I tried to tell you, but no, no, no, you wouldn't listen. Your traps just never work, and look what you 've done to your mother's castle."

Pyro, who was about to hit Scott on the head with a giant board, cringes and cries out, "AAH! Mommy." He sucks his thumb again and starts chasing Scott around thumping the ground hard as Scott dodges each blow.

Scott screams and shouts, "Sire, no!"

"You cowardly cyclops!" Pyro shouts.

"Please, Oh, no." Scott pleads.

"Procrastinating pig!" Pyro continues. "Aggravating animal!"

"Save me!" Scott screams.

"You wolf in sheep's clothing!" Pyro screams at him.

"Help!" Scott shouts, "He's gone stark raving mad!" The echo fades as the castle burns down.

"And cut!" Lightning calls.

"Someone get Pyro away from those flames!" Raven calls.

Wanda is only to happy to oblige as Bobby puts the fire out.

Piotr turns to Pietro and slams his fist into him. "Mace! Mace! Are you crazy?"

Pietro simply smirks, "Well, itseemedlikeagoodideaatthetime."

Remy is looking around for Rogue, "Where did she go?"

"Oh," Jean says, "She ran off about the time Hank shot you in the head."

"Oh, well, t'en. Remy ought to go make sure t'e fille knows Remy's all right." He approaches her dressing room to find her laughing her head off. "Rogue? What's so funny?"

"Hank shot ya!" She laughs. "Right in the head too. . ." She laughs harder.

Remy gets angry. "Chere, t'at is not funny!"

"It is from my point of view." Rogue laughs.

"Well," Remy smirks, "T'en maybe Remy t'inks it funny t'at t'e next scene is our wedding."

Rogue stops laughing and groans.

Raven gets up from her chair and walks towards the door, "They're never gonna change are they?"

"They might," Lightning says, placing his arm around her waist.

"No," she shakes her head, "They won't."

"Yes, they will."

"No, they won't."

And we will leave them fighting until the next and final scene. . .


A/N: Sorry this took so long, but I was helping my sister move into her new house this weekend. :D Next up: The wedding of the century! and the end of Remy Hood. . . :( I got to make up my mind what to do next. . .

Please review:)
