"First Stop, Ice Cream!"

The little girl literatly glowed. Spell placed a hand on her shoulder and the glowing stopped.

"What kind of ice cream do you want, Flash?"

"Chocolate chip Cookie dough."

The girls laugh was bubbly and light.

She turned to Remy.

"What about you daddy? What kind is your favorite? Wolfie likes coffee flavored ice cream. He is short. Do you know him?"

Gambit nodded, already enchanted with this girl.

"I'll have the same."

He kissed the top of the little girls head. He looked at her eyes, there was no denying this was his kid. How could he have ever been scared to meet her? His only fear was that Rouge might be upset.

Told ya so Rem. Spell spoke mind to mind.

"I guess that means 2 chocolate chip cookie dough and 1 triple fudge chocolate."

She laughed and ruffled her daughters hair.

"Mommmmmmmm."

The girl pulled out a tarot card and it began to glow with a blue light.

"heh heh heh."

The girl giggled.

Remy just watched. Spell reached over and grabbed the card, it exploded into her hand. She gritted her teeth as the burn healed and she growled. Then she looked over at her daughter.

"I thought Bri locked up your cards."

"He did, but grampa Lebeau taught me how to steal..."

"Guess I'm gonna have ot have a talk with him then."

Her voice was serious. Her daughter had the talent to be a good thief but she really didn't want to risk it.

"Ok Ice Cream world, dead ahead."

They pulled in and all three put on sunglasses. They ordered the icecream and flash ended up eating hers and half of Remy's. They laughed and ended up spending an hour eating icecream and laughing.

When they finally reached the car again Flash giggled and started chattering.

"Well Wolfie's my brother and Rage is my sister and Brian isn't really my uncle and Spell is my mom and Ah'm a mutant and I throw tarot cards and heal people up and I go to school at Beserker Acadamy and Nova made me cool toys and Ah love eatin' hot peppers at grampa's house and learning to be a thief and..."

The little girl paused, out of breath. Then she started chattering in French.

"Im dix et vraiment bon aux maths et aiment mon chien appelé petit et jeu dans ma pièce junior de danger et..."

"Ok that's enough suger for mon petite fille."

Remy paused.

"Ok where next?'

"Movies."

Spell answered before the girl could start up again.

They pulled up before a fancy movie theater. Spell paid thier way in and they went in to watch Herbie: Fully Loaded. Flash laughed and even the two adults laughed.

The movie was over in about an hour and a half. Next they went to a country music concert. They came away with 3 tee-shirts and 10 autographs.

Now it was dark. They pulled up to a brightly lit fair and got out. Flash and Remy headed to the rides. Spell got on the Spider and then watched Flash and Remy on the ferris wheel. When they got down Spell suggested that they go play some games.

Spell won the dart throw, coming from much practice, and got a cool looking sword.

Remy threw baseballs and won a huge blue and red teddy bear that he gave to Flach.

Flash won the pop gun shooting and won a picture of dogs playing poker, which she gave to Remy with a charming

"ici vous allez papa!"

(Here you go daddy)

At the end of the night they were giddy with laughter and loaded down with prizes.

They piled into the car, Flash insisting on holding the huge teddy bear, which she named, "chanceux"(lucky)

She fell asleep on his lap.

Spell looked over at him.

"So where are we spending the night."

"She can sleep in my room."

"What about Rouge?"

Spell looked worried.

"she has her own room."

When they got to the mansion everyone else was asleep. They snuck her up to Remy's room and lay her on the bed. Spell left. Remy covered his child up and kissed her good night. Then he lay down next to her, and soon fell into a peacefull sleep, although Flash kicked in her sleep.

Spell went downstairs to the kitchen. She drank a can of soda and talked to Logan about her day when he came down. Then they departed and went to thier rooms, where they each fell into a deep sleep, the first time Spell had slept peacefully in over 15 years.
