thanks for the reviews. I don't own x-men
Ch.2
The sun rose as the moon fell. Night became day and the mutants began to stir. The first to rise was Logan. He stretched his arms as he walked out of his trailer. Cracking his knuckles he made his way to all the trailers, Loganbanged on the doors and yelled for the sleeping mutants to wake up.
An hour later everyone was eating breakfast outside the big tent.
Rogue, Wanda, Kitty and X-23 were sitting in a circle eating their breakfast and talking.
"So how did you do last night Wanda?"
Kitty asked before taking a bite out of her Lucky charms. Wanda finished off her bacon before replying.
"I did pretty good. I told three fortunes, two tarot card readings, and five potions, how about you X?"
X-23 straightened up and had a proud look on her face.
"I caught some kids trying to sneak in, Logan let me take care of them."
She cracked her knuckles for emphases.
"Like I hope you didn't hurt them too bad."
The group was silent for a few seconds then all four started to laugh.
"That's funny Kit, O' yea, Ah got you new costume finished. You can try it on later."
"Like thanks Rogue."
They finished eating and sat for a while talking about the night before.
Not far away Piotr, Remy, John, and Pietro were eating their breakfast too. Remy leaned back against the tent and shuffled a deck of cards all the wile looking at Rogue. A cup collided with his head snapping him out of his Rogue induced daze.
"What da hell was dat for!"
He threw the cup back at John.
"Comrade, you were drooling."
"Shut up."
He rubbed the back of his head as he watched Rogue get up and head for her trailer with Kitty.
"Ah'll see you boys later."
With that he got up and followed the two girls. He came up behind Rogue and pulled a bouquet of colorful flowers out of nowhere.
"Lovely flowers for a bella girl."
"Get lost swamp rat, Ah got work to do."
She pulled away from his arm (even though she didn't remember him placing it around her in the first place) and pulled Kitty inside her trailer, not forgetting to slam the door.
Kitty sat down on Rogues bed and looked around. The bed had a green bed spread and (like all the other beds) could fold up and disappear" into the side of the trailer. Her built in dresser was next to the bed and it had black vines painted on it and the knobs were skulls. At the back against the wall sat her sowing machine and pinned to the back wall with tacks were designs for costumes.
Rogue opened a closet by her desk and pulled out a heap of fabric. She unfolded it and held it out for Kitty it see.
"That is like so cool!"
The costume was a black leotard with an attached bright pink short skirt, the skirt had a slit along one of the sides. A pink X crossed the chest reaching from the shoulders to her hips.
Kitty tried it on and it fit perfectly.
"Like thanks Rogue, you did an awesome job."
"Thanks Kit."
Kitty changed back into her blue-jeans and her pink Hello Kitty tee-shirt while Rogue grabbed her large, black, patch covered sowing bag (it was large enough to carry a pin cushion, scissors, thread and a note pad.) Rogue changed out of her pajama pants and top into a pair of black cargo pants, a purple long sleeved top and her train mark black gloves. After leaving the trailer the two then headed towards Wanda's place.
Rogue knocked on the door and when it didn't open she pulled out a key and opened it herself. The inside of Wanda's trailer was divided in two by a deep red curtain, the front half had a magical look to it, the floor was covered by a dark blue carpet with gold stars woven into it. The walls had fabric hanging on them and the windows had thick curtains covering them. The shelves held old magic books, some crystal balls and several bottles with labels like "Love" and "Beauty" written on the colored glass.
"Like, anyone home?"
The curtain dividing the trailer moved and Wanda came out. She straightened her knee-length black skirt with red roses embroidered around the hem, and a snapped closed the red vest she wore over a white top with long flowing sleeves. Her long black hair was held back with a red scarf.
"I'm here, just changing out of my nightgown."
"Like wana do something?"
"Sorry, I would if I could but I still have to put my crystals away and then I'm going into town for some more herbs."
She opened a cabinet and pulled several boxes out.
"We'll see ya later then."
Rogue said as she closed the open cabinet for Wanda.
"Ok, by you two."
The two left and their next stop was Kitty's trailer. Kitty shared her trailer with Jubilee and after much arguing they had come to a compromise about the trailer's design. The room had been split down the middle. Kitty had the left. Her bed spread was pink, her dresser was pink and her curtains were pink while everything on Jubilee's side was yellow. Kitty folded up her new costume and put it away in one of the drawers.
"Like let's go help take the big tent down."
"You just wana see Piotr without a shirt."
As Kitty shut the door she smirked.
"What's your point?"
They laughed and headed for the big tent. As they walked down the road they passed others packing their concession stands and game booths.
"Hi Bobby, how did you like do last night?"
"Me? The slushy's were selling like crazy."
He made a snow ball in his hand and tossed it up and down to show off before he began loading cups and bowls into a box.
When they reached the big tent people were already working on taking it down.
"Do ya need us Logan?"
"Yea. Half pint, I need you to phase all the pikes out of the ground."
"Like no problem."
She left, leaving Rogue and Logan alone.
"What can Ah do?"
"Not sure, got most of it covered. Why don't you go to Storm and help her pack the costumes and props."
"Sure, Ah'll see ya later."
She left and went to the costume/props trailer. When she entered she found Storm putting costumes into a large trunk.
"Need any help?"
"Yes, could you get that empty trunk for me?"
"Sure"
They folded costumes and packed props into boxes for the rest of the day, taking a break for lunch, and by supper time they were already to go. Sitting on the ground the big tent had previously covered, all the mutants ate their supper as Logan gave last minuet instructions.
"As soon as you all finish supper I want the trailers moved onto the train tracks and connected, remember what ever you don't tie down will probably move around and could break. Do you all understand?"
"yes"
"I didn't hear you!"
"YES"
"That's better, finish eating then get ready for the move."
He left them and went to check on the engine.
An hour later all the trailers were connected and on the tracks. The front two cars that were used for passengers were full and some of the mutants were getting ready for bed wile others were talking.
"Logan?"
Someone yelled above the dull roar filling the train cabin.
"What!"
He was slumped down in a front seat, arms crossed and lookingstressed (but he got that way every time they traveled for the next town so no one really paid much attention to his grumpy mood).
"Where we going next?"
Logan looked at the circus schedule then yelled back,
"Bayville."
