Vegas Catastrophe
Chapter 1: And so it begins
Disclaimer- Own nothing! This goes for all of my stories and individual chapters.
Authors Note- No prologue this time kiddies! Sorry, just had to say that. And also, I know just about nothing about that one chick that Remy was married to or whatever that story is so she isn't going to be in this! No jealous ex-wives!
Chapter 1- And so it begins
"I can't believe that you let them throw you a bachelor party." Kitty says laughing. "And the fact that I let Melinda and Rogue lead me out of the mansion. I should have known." Kitty says smiling softly as they speed down the highway toward their destination: Las Vegas, Nevada. The only place where mutant marriages were still legal.
Dear Diary,
Remy let those idiots throw him a bachelor party, you really don't want to know what all went on that night. Think Pyro, Pete and Pietro and guys paradise… I guess that you could call it that. I found out from Melinda who found out from Pyro…She tried to drill Pete, whoshe thought was drunk, but justher luck, he holds alcohol better thanany of usthought that he would. Well, then again what shouldshe have expected. Just get Pyro drunk and he'll tellher anything, though he may tell her anything without having to be drunk, they look so cute together! Don't ask where that came from. Theyare dating now though. It really is cute, she was just looking out for me anyway. She told me that I didn't want to know what she would have doneif she was me after she found ou, then of course she told me. .
She almost went to interrogate Pietro, but she wasn't sure how long the alcohol would stay in his system with his superspeed and all, soher last resort was Pyro, after allshe was curious. I didn't want to know how Remy spent his last single night around all of the Acolytes, come on now, with those guys anything is possible.. Note to self, don't ever think that Pete is too drunk to think normally, though maybe him thinking normally is a bad thing, since he was one of the masterminds behind it all.
"Remy heard datMelinda askin Pete what happened last night, did ya put her up to it?"
"Now why would I do that?" Kitty asks innocently. "I trust you."
"You just don' trust Pete an Pietro."
"Of course I trust them… to a point. I had no idea that Melinda was going to ask, she told me this morning right before we left, sheis mad at Pyro.Think of what you have seen of Pete and Pietro, I saw worse locked up in that idiotic mutant experiment thing."
"Mon chere-" Remy says looking over at her from the passen ger seat of her car.
"I'm ok. I can talk about it. Geez… the rest of them laugh about it and tell stories like it was a fairy tale. Don't give me the 'You went through more' thing that I get from Melinda, I'd like to say that I'm not made of glass."
Some people just never learn, do they? That is one thing that infuriates me about the Acolytes, no one will just shut up and let me go off about that. Remy changes the subject(though I understand why), Melinda treats me like a baby, Pete just MIGHT feel a little guilty about threatening meand being the reason I was there to start with, but the rest of them look at me like I'm made of glass and then they walk out of the room.Times like this are when I truly miss my mother, but I'm glad that Remy and I drove to Las Vegas, it was a LONG drive, but we got to spend some peaceful time alone together,no little cousins, no spying eyes or jealousy, just the two of us for lke three days in a car alone.Now please don't let your mind wander into the gutter, it's not a nice place for it to go. I'm not like that. Plus, he had already waited like 2 years, what's three more days, well actually less than that, since he diecided taht he wanted to drive, but that is for later.
"Remy doesn't-"
"I know that you don't want to talk about it, and you don't want me to push myself, I understand. It's just finally hitting me that all of those plans that my mother and I made for the future are never going to happen. This is just one of those things. She alwayss told me that she would cry at my wedding, guess that I'll never know if she would have now. It would have been my father who wou ld be crying. Wouldn't that be a sight. I never saw my father cry, not once in 17 years."
"Men aren't supposed ta cry."
"I know. I heard stroies from the other Acolytes about you crying. What do you have to say for yourself?"
"Remy don't know what he did when he was lookin fer ya mon chere, he honestly don't know."
"Fair enough, but just so you know, I thought that it was sweet."
"You're gonna let Remy cheat in Vegas, non?"
"We'll see."
-X-Mansion-
"Kate!" Amara squeals as she sees her seemingly unconsious on the floor of her bedroom. "Kate! Wake Up!"
"Amara… don't yell so… loudly." Kate says as her body goes limp.
-2 hours later-
"Yeah, it was her alright Storm." Logan says growling.
"Wh y would she leave her scent for you to detect Logan ?" Storm asks in though.
" You must think about this logically," Hank begins " she is an easy creature to follow. She is tr ying to harm the Acolytes, specifically Kitty, for the embarrassment she suffered at their hands. Not only did they find her captive, Rogue, but they destro yed Sarah's plans for revenge, and Kate just so happens to be one of Kitty's closeset friends."
"How do we get ahold of Half-Pint. I ain't gonna call that team lookin for her, not after what happened the last time that I was there, not much of a welcome."
"I will call." Storm says. "Since I have no quarrel with any of them."
"Actually, it may not be a wise decision. I overheard Jubilee whining rather loudly this afternoon about tr ying to call Kitty and t hey said that she had left for Las Vegas with her fiancee, we all know what that means."
"I hope the kid can have fun before all of this gets blown into her face."
"Logan!" Storm says in surprise, "I never thought that-"
"Ororo, we both know that Kit ty wants to marry this man, I believe we all saw that in their interactions the one time that we saw them together." Hank says. "You can not fault her for wanting to ma rry him while it is still legal, and as Logan crudely pointed out, we both know that she doesn't believe in premarital sex. I believe that he is good for her. Look at how she acted when she was here the last few times. He has helped her heal tremendously."
"I still don't like the way Logan said it. So how do we get this message to her? Tell her that one of her closest friends is in critical condition, that she may not make it through the night, when we have no telepath and no phone to call her on?"
"We must improvise and hope that Kate can withstand the torment that has been forced upon her as it was forced upon Kitty." Hank says.
"Let's hope that she makes it until Kitty g ets back. They weren't driving were they?" Storm asks.
"I believe that Jubilee said something about how idiotic it was to take a car there. So to answer your question, yes, I believe so." Hank replies. "This cannot be good, I see where you were going with that Ororo."
-Interstate: Kimy-
"Remy!" Kitty sq ueals, "My car isn't meant to go 150 miles an hour! You're t ripling the speed limit, not to mention if you get caught-"
"Remy's not gonna get caught, and he's only doin 120."
"Big difference. You're insane!"
"Dat isn't what you'll be sayin soon." Kitty rolls her eyes.
"I have a bad feeling that something is going to happen Remy, something bad."
"You've been sayin dat. Nothin will happen, nothin ever does anymore."
"Yeah, but they haven't tried tried to blow the whole mansion up nine times in the past three weeks."
"But de y didn't. Ya need ta let loose a little. Dis could be one of de last times you'l l get ta see de world outside de mansion without bein attaked for a while."
"That's true, maybe I do just worry too much."
I can't shake this uneasy feeling that I've been getting since we left. It just refuses to go away . I hope that Remy is right, I hope that I am wrong. Oh God, please don't let an ything happen, I'd jus die if it did.
