Chapter 2
VvV Christmas Surprises VvV
Tabitha looked around the landing and peeped into Logan's room, peering into the depths of the shadows to make sure no one was home. When she had thoroughly checked it through, Tabby cautiously put one foot into his room, waiting to see what happened, she stood there for twenty seconds before she finally took another step and was fully into Logan's room. She looked around to see what would happen, and when nothing did Tabby began to move further into Logan's room, and then she suddenly took all of her courage and switched the light on…nothing happened. With a smile and a hissed, "yesss!" Tabby skipped quickly into the depths of Logan's room, examining every nook and cranny but just as she was about to start operation 'Logan's room' she heard something move at Logan's door. Her heart skipped to her mouth and Tabitha froze where she stood, thinking whatever was at the door would leave and go away, but instead it spoke to her making her jump into the air and squeal with fright.
"Tabby what are you doing?" Rahne watched wide-eyed as Tabby jumped and spun around to face her, Tabitha's shocked expression causing Rahne take a step back.
"JEEZ RAHNE!" Tabitha yelled but then lowered her voice, not wanting to attract too much attention, "you scared the shit out of me!"
"Well I'm not surprised, being alone in Logan's room not knowing what's in there would scare the shit out of people!" Rahne paused and tilted her head, looking rather confused, "what are you doing in there anyway?"
Tabitha began to walk to the door, her courage rebuilding, "now that, hun, is my little secret." Tabby stopped just at the door, smirked at Rahne and then began to close the door on her, "I'll see you when I'm done in here," she winked and then closed the door in Rahne's face.
'What is she doing?' Rahne waited behind the closed door for a moment when suddenly it opened again and Tabitha reached out, grabbed her arm and pulled her straight in.
"Actually, come to think of it; I think I'll need your help in this…" after pulling Rahne straight in, Tabitha began to make her way back to Logan's walk-in-wardrobe, gesturing behind her at Rahne, "come on!" She stepped in the wardrobe, but when Rahne didn't follow Tabby grabbed her arm and pulled Rahne in with herself.
"What are you doing! Logan will be able to smell your scent in here for miles, are you mad!"
"I'm doing my job, Logan's supposed to smell me and yes; if I am in here, which I am, then I must be completely bonkers!"
"Oh…why'd you need me then?"
"Because you can tell me just how strong my scent is on everything I touch with that excellent nose of yours."
"Oh…ok." Rahne morphed into a full-wolf before she began to follow Tabby through Logan's clothes, shaking her head if the scent wasn't strong enough and nodding when it was. But just as Tabby made her way to the last section of Logan's clothing Rahne morphed back into a human with a squeal of outrage, "you can't go there Tabby!"
"Why not? It's only his underwear," Tabby smirked as she said this and then started to giggled uncontrollably, "oh…my…god!" she squealed with delight and held up a pair of Logan's underwear.
Rahne burst out laughing and had to lean onto the wall for sheer support, "oh my god! Look at the tinsel!" Tabby held up a pair of bright red y-front pants, covered in a pattern of holly with white tinsel framing the top of them. Tabby wiped the pants all over herself and held them out to Rahne who backed off slightly morphing into a wolf as she did, Rahne nodded and Tabby placed them back and was just about to take out another pair when she clapped her hands to her mouth in shock.
Rahne changed immediately from a wolf back into a human and stared questioningly at Tabby, "what is it?"
Tabby never answered and instead pointed in horror down at Logan's underwear drawer, making a small squeaky sound of shock and surprise. Rahne slowly and cautiously peeped into the drawer and stepped back in horror; right on the top of Logan's underwear sat a thong the looked exactly the same as Logan's y-fronts. But they were too small for Logan, and weren't made for any other male in the household, Rahne gasped as Tabby picked them up with one finger and looked inside them at the label.
Her shriek echoed in Rahne's ears, through Logan's room and out into the hallway along with her cries, "OH MY FREAKING GOD! THEY'RE STORMS!"
Rahne stood in shock and stared at Tabby, "you're…you're having a laugh right?" But she got her answer as Tabby held out the thong to her and showed Rahne the label, they both looked at each other and Rahne slowly turned around and walked silently out of the wardrobe, out of Logan's room and into the hall. Tabby gave one last look around herself and placed Logan's and Ororo's Christmas underwear side by side in his underwear drawer on top of everything and took out a camera.
Moments later she had walked silently out of Logan's room to join Rahne, and they both silently made their way downstairs into the living room where all the new mutants apart from Bobby, Roberto and Ray were watching Lara Croft-Tomb Raider.
"Heya guys, what's with the, like, camera?" Jubilee looked inquisitively at the camera and reached out for it to get a look at the pictures, but Tabby just blankly looked at thin air and silently pulled the camera away from Jubilee's fingertips.
Rahne looked at Tabby who stood silently with a creepy smile on her face and then Rahne looked back at the others, "uh…where's Bobby, Roberto and Ray?" Tabby looked at Rahne and grabbed her arm, pulling her all the way to the entrance hall in answer.
They both heard Amara speak as soon as they had gone, "uh, rude much!"
"Heya guys," Bobby, Roberto and Ray both looked up as Tabby spoke, Bobby smirked at her receiving a smirk in return and Roberto and Ray both looked at Rahne, Roberto smiling seductively at her and Ray frowning.
"What's she doing here? We told you that no one else could see this."
"Don't worry guys, she helped me with operation 'Logan's Room.'" Tabby smiled gratefully at Rahne and she returned the smile before looking to see what the boys were doing.
"So, watcha guys up to then?"
"You wanna tell her Tabs?" All three boys returned their gazes to their work as Tabby explained the plan quickly to Rahne who stood wide-eyed at the crazy idea.
Twenty minutes later they were all done and were heading back towards the living room, with Rahne still not able to get over what they were going to do; "he'll kill you! You are so dead!"
"Don't worry we know…and besides, he'll kill you too," Roberto frowned as Bobby said this to Rahne but didn't make a comment and carried on walking, watching Rahne closely as he did.
They all headed for the living room and everyone looked up at them as they did, questioning looks on their faces directed at the tools the boys held and the string that Tabby and Rahne also held. No one said anything however and everyone sat down on the floor and sofas, munching on snacks and watching the movie until finally it finished, only then did the question come.
"What were you up to?" Sam looked down at Rahne who sat in his lap, with her head snuggled into his chest.
"Never you mind, that's between us lot." She smiled and leaned up to quickly kiss him on the lips, ignoring as Sam blushed.
"Yeh, you'll find out later," Bobby laughed as Ray said this and rapped his arm around Jubilee. She smiled at him curiously and opened her mouth to speak, but Bobby interrupted her; "you'll find out later babes." He kissed her reassuringly on the lips and smirked as she smiled satisfactorily, leaning further into him. Tabby watched the interaction with mixed jealousy and anger, ignoring as Bobby smirked in her direction and winked at her. She turned instead to Ray and Roberto who sat side by side looking at the sofa on which was sat Jubilee and Amara, both the boys' eyes and minds solely focussed on 'their' girl. She smirked at them and then turned to look at Amara and Jubilee, who both chatted perkily, occasionally watching both boys out of the corners of their eyes, Jubilee snuggling further into Bobby's chest to get the hint across that she was taken.
But Tabby smirked at the hint; it wasn't what everyone else would think of as a hint for Ray to stop trying anything, it was a hint to tell him to move on, that Jubilee was taken and that nothing would happen between them…more of a reassurance to herself. But Ray never took the hints and Tabby knew it, being the one sharing a room with both Jubilee and Amara.
VvV Flashback VvV
Tabby stood outside the door with one ear pressed against it closely, listening to Jubilee's failed attempts to ward off Ray.
"Ray, please just go away! Ray I mean it, I have a date with Bobby in ten minutes, please just leave me alone." There was a slight pause and Jubilee's voice came out in a higher more panicked tone, "Ray! I mean it, no! Don't Ray, please!"
Tabby looked around the landing and then crouched down, peeking cautiously through the keyhole, she watched wide-eyed as Jubilee pushed at Ray who sat still on the bed, unmoving.
"Ray! Move; don't just sit there! Ray!" No matter how commanding Jubilee's voice got Ray wouldn't move, and he sat still and silent until Jubilee gave one furious shove, falling over with the force at which she threw herself at him. Ray immediately stood and bent over, grabbing Jubilee's arms and pulling her towards him, right into his chest and wrapped his arms around her waist so she couldn't move away.
"Jubilee, please?" Ray's voice was pleading and he sounded as if he was begging her, just to stay with him, his eyes full with sorrow and hurt at how she wanted to get away.
"Don't Ray, it will never work; we're two completely different people, I can't…besides, I have Bobby!"
Ray scoffed at this and pulled Jubilee away from him, still holding her arms so that she looked at him properly, "Bobby! Bobby Drake is nothing but a low-life playboy, find her, fuck her and throw her into the past. I'd never do that to you Jubilee, I care about you, Bobby; he'd ditch you as soon as he got what he wants! Do you really want that!"
"Don't talk about him like that, he'd never do that to me!"
"Why do you kid yourself like this? You know he will, he always does! Don't you remember what happened to Amara?"
Tabitha's heart swelled and she watched as Jubilee's eyes filled with tears, her voice growing high pitched and filled with sorrow, "don't! He wouldn't!"
"He did Jubilee, he fucking did! To your own best friend! What makes you think your not his next target?"
"Ray just leave me alone, please!" Ray looked down at Jubilee as a tear fell and he wiped it away before turning towards the door, but just as his hand reached towards the handle I quickly sprinted to the end of the corridor so he wouldn't know I had listened. But he didn't open the door straight away, I waited for a while and then I heard him speaking again.
"I'm sorry Jubilee, but when it happens you can always count on me…"
"Ray…I'm sorry, I…I tried breaking up with him but he wouldn't listen, he never does. You know it's not that simple," Jubilee turned away from Ray, "he'd never let us be together if I broke off with him, he'd always be plotting to split us up…you know him better than anyone here. He'd plot against us and break us up, then get back with me and ditch me...just to show us he can, that's why Amara and Roberto never got together and they still won't."
"I don't care, we can cope, please? Let us try!"
"I'm sorry Ray, please just leave; I have a date with him in five minutes." The door handle turned as Jubilee spoke and I began to walk towards my room just as Ray came out, scowling with anger and hurt.
I passed him with a smile, "heya Ray…you alright?" he never answered and passed me straight by, scowling further as I smirked, "rude."
"Shut it Tabs."
I turned to watch as he walked away and then gradually made my way back to my room, peeping in cautiously before entering. Jubilee gasped as I suddenly entered and covered up her face, running into the bathroom to try and hide her tear streaked face, with her make-up smeared about her face. "Why do you still hide yourself from me and Amara, Jubes? You know that we're aware of what's happening so why don't you just talk to us about it."
Jubilee came out of the bathroom just as I finished speaking, her face neatly cleaned up with new make-up covering it and a false smile plastered across her face. "I don't know what you're on about Tabby," she laughed, but her eyes didn't have that full twinkle they always shone with when she laughed purely. Tabitha rolled her eyes as Jubilee turned her back to look in the mirror, Jubilee then turned around to look at Tabby and posed for her, "what do you think?"
"Are you supposed to look like a tart? Or is that what Bobby likes in a girl?"
Jubilee scowled momentarily but then laughed falsely and waved goodbye to Tabby and walked out of the room, still laughing falsely, but as she left Amara entered the room. Her look at Tabby was confused and a bit angry, "Ray came didn't he."
"Yup, they had another one of their little chats about how she wanted to get rid of Bobby but that if they then got together then it wouldn't work…you know; the usual cover up. She's just worried that they won't work together, not whether Bobby will muck it up but whether they'll muck it up themselves…rather similar to someone else's problems."
Amara blushed, "shut up Tab."
"Only speaking the truth."
"What? About your jealousy about the fact that Jubilee is the only thing keeping you apart from Bobby…that and his massive sex crave."
"I'll shut up if you shut up."
"Fine."
The girls were both silent for about ten seconds before… "but come on Amara; you're not scared Bobby will break you and Roberto up, he has Jubilee for gods sake! You're just worried about whether Roberto really wants you…which he does, and whether it would work or not."
"Oh, well I'm not the only one! Look at you, lusting for Bobby trying to make him jealous by any means possible."
VvV End of Flashback VvV
Tabby looked around the room at all the couples; Jamie and Danielle (aka. Mirage) sat side by side; their hands clasped together, Jubilee leant snuggled into Bobby's chest, being watched closely by Ray. Amara and Roberto kept giving each other glances as Amara chatted to Jubilee and Rahne, who sat in Sam's lap; her head snuggled into his chest. She smirked and suddenly stood up, ignoring the curious glances everyone sent her way and made her way out of the door, and towards the kitchen. She took out several bowls and filled them with mince pies and took some more bowls out and filled them with nuts, before getting several glasses, some coke and fanta and a couple of trays. She placed everything onto the trays and balanced them whilst heading back into the living room. Everyone watched her as she placed them onto the coffee table in between the sofas and they all watched as she walked out again and came back in with a box full of what looked like Christmas things. She looked around at the curious gazes and took out 10 reindeer hats (the antler things you put on your head) and chucked one to everyone in the room.
"Uh…Tabs, what are you doing?" Rahne looked down at her antlers and then looked back at Tabby as she sat down next to Rahne.
"We're gonna play truth and dare; Christmas style," Tabby smiled mischievously and then grabbed Rahne's antlers and shoved them onto her head before doing the same to Sam, watching as everyone else copied and put their own on. "So…I'll start then. Roberto, truth or dare?"
"What can I say Tab, never could resist a dare probably won't ever be able to."
Tabby smirked again and looked around the room towards the Christmas box she had brought in and laughed evilly, "rummage through that box and find the most ridiculous item you can find and use it to seduce Rahne."
"Prepare to get jealous Sammy boy," Roberto smirked and made his way to the box, and rummaged through it before pulling out a Santa Claus costume. He looked at it and then smirked before pulling it on over his clothes, Rahne covered her eyes as he began to make his way slowly over to her, thrusting his hips to the side as he went. He then proceeded to give Rahne a full lap-dance as she sat in Sam's lap, laughing uncontrollably with the rest of the room and beginning to respond, standing up and dancing seductively with Roberto. When Roberto could no longer control his laughter he sat down on the floor and practically choked with laughter as he spoke, "right then…my turn, truth or dare; Jubes?"
"I think by that particularly scary dance I'll go it safe and pick truth."
Amara scoffed very loudly, "safe! Are you mad Jubes!"
"She obviously isn't; Jubes, name the most embarrassing moment of your Christmas years."
Jubilee blushed outrageously and mumbled something quietly so no one properly heard.
"You might wanna speak up Jubes."
"Well it's kinda embarrassing…"
"That's the point Jubes, come on; spill." Roberto rubbed his hands together maliciously, and everyone waited.
"Well…it was two Christmas' ago…we had the whole family over and the dinner was looking perfect, my two aunts, my gran and my mum had all cooked this amazing meal and it had taken months to do it all. Everyone had just sat down and my mum wanted me to enter last and bring in the turkey with me, so I did as she asked me and brought it in. I had just set it down on the table, when my uncle and aunt pulled a cracker and it went off with such a loud bang that I jumped in fright. My powers were new to me then and…well, I had no control over them so when I jumped fireworks flew out of my hands, they set the turkey on fire and some more sparks jumped to the rest of the food and table. They set the tablecloth on fire as well as more food and the table and I jumped back from the table in fright. I didn't look where I jumped so I tripped over the cat's basket and landed backwards, and when I landed my hands flew up and more sparks went everywhere. They landed on the cupboards and set them alight and then they hit the oven and set it alight as well. By the time 1 minute had passed the whole kitchen was alight and the fire was spreading so we all had to run out of the house as quickly as possible. The house burnt down and the next day my parents were met by Xavier and sent me straight off here, with no pause at all. All of my stuff had been destroyed so there was nothing to take and they were too ashamed of me to say goodbye properly, I'm a disgrace to my family…I heard them tell Xavier so." Amara let out a quick 'aw' noise and leant over to hug Jubilee, before Jubilee carried on speaking. "Yeh I know…but anyway…Rahne; truth or dare?"
"Um…I'm not sure now, but I think I'll pick truth."
"Who do you most regret getting off with at a Christmas party?"
"Oh god, that was years back…god it was so embarrassing, my aunt and uncle were over for Christmas and they're completely mad you know, whenever they're around my parents get drunk. So as they were all drunk no one bothered to check on my best friend and me, so we got completely drunk. But my uncle then decided he was sober enough to make a film and began to film us all…me and Janice (my friend) were completely drunk by that time and had no idea what we were doing…and we nearly got off with each other. The next morning of course we were completely sober and were couldn't remember a thing we had done. The only thing anyone could remember was that someone had been filming and that there was a tape in the camera. Of course a couple of days later all my friends came over to see what I had been up to on Christmas day and to tell me what they'd done, about ten of them came over. We all sat in the living room chatting until I mentioned the camera, and then we all looked and spotted a videotape lying next to the camera so we all guessed that it might be the Christmas tape. We turned it on and watched it for about ten minutes before the most embarrassing thing came on; the camera was shown wobbling about a bit and spinning around until it focussed on Janice and me getting very close. And then it showed us almost getting off with each other! It was so embarrassing, I couldn't look her in the eye after that and I couldn't even look in the direction of my boyfriend for about two weeks!" Rahne blushed as everyone started laughing and noticed how Sam's cheek started to flush as she mentioned her boyfriend. "Yeh…well, Ray, truth or dare?"
"Hit me with dare!"
"I dare you to…" Rahne looked around at the living room and then got up to go and rummage in the Christmas box before she found something suitable. "Perfect," she laughed menacingly and beckoned for Ray to come towards her and she whispered into his ear. He stood up straight when she had finished and nodded, walking out of the room with something no one could see with Rahne straight behind him. They both came back several minutes later and Danielle almost fell of Jamie's lap with shock as everyone else started to burst out laughing.
"What, never seen a drag queen before?" Ray stood in a borrowed bra with baubles in the cups and tinsel attached to the bottom of it, with make-up plastered across his face and nothing but a borrowed thong covering his bottom half. The girls all peered cautiously around him and took in his bottom with an individual satisfied smirk from each apart from Jubilee who blushed watching as Ray began to strut towards the middle of the room. He began to slowly pose seductively, walking from one side of the room to the other, shaking his hips from side to side raunchily and soaking up the bellows of laughter. After a while he looked pleadingly at Rahne, "can I stop please? The thong is riding up my arse and I'm getting cold!" Rahne smirked and nodded, but as Ray began to run out of the room she coughed. Ray walked back in, posed and then made his way slowly out of the room, thrusting his hips and running a hand up his body whilst the other held the bra cup. Everyone burst into more fits of laughter as they heard him running up the stairs and moments later he joined them, strutting in a manly manner back into the room, smirking at the girls.
"Enjoy the view Danny?"
"Loved it Ray," Danny smirked and leant further back into Jamie's arms.
"Well that's good, cause you'll be giving us one in a minute…but it all depends on one question, truth or dare?"
"Well then, you'll have to reveal to us what this show is about coz I'm taking your offer; dare."
Ray smirked at her and then looked at the guys, "fellas, we're just about to get one hell of a show; a strip show."
The boys all wolf-whistled and the girls began to giggle, looking to Danielle to see whether she'd except and she did, running a hand down her body seductively as she stood up and made her way to Ray. "You wanna see this do you Ray baby?"
"You betcha." Ray leaned back in the sofa, smirking.
"How far down?"
"As far as you wanna go," he winked at Danielle and she returned it as she began to remove her jacket and discarded on the floor. The boys all sat up straight, watching closely as Danielle's top was also discarded onto the floor, revealing a perfect set of round, C cups. But things began to get better as Danny removed her belt, slowly and teasingly, rapping it around the back of Ray's neck seductively as she leant towards him, giving him a better view of her breasts. But just as he began to get excited she pulled back and turned around, wiggling her bottom in his face as she slowly undid the buttons to her jeans and removed them to reveal a black lace thong that matched her black lace bra. She did a few twirls to let all the boys get a view as they wolf-whistled at her and then she winked at Ray, and pulled her jeans and top back on, seating herself contentedly back onto Jamie's lap as if nothing had happened.
"So, Bobby will you return the favour or let us delve into your little hoard of secrets?"
"I think I'll return it," Bobby stood and smirked at the girls who wolf-whistled this time but just as his hand went to the button on his shirt the front door of the X-mansion slammed shut and a call echoed through the house.
"Children, we're home! Where is everyone?"
The new mutants all looked at each other and quickly picked up all of the Christmas stuff, all clearing it up as Roberto removed the Santa costume and stuffed it back into the box which they hid behind a sofa. They all ran and jumped onto the sofas looking as little conspicuous as possible and starting to chat and eat the snacks just as Scott, Jean, Freddy, Todd and Ororo walked into the room.
Freddy took one look at the snacks before he and Todd joined the new mutants on the sofas, both being excepted as if they had always been X-men. "Heya guys."
Amara smiled at Freddy, "heya Freddy, how was cookery?"
"It was amazing! We learnt how to make mince-pies today!"
"Yeh, yo and we decorated our Christmas mugs in pottery today, mine has a snow man…I've got it here somewhere…"
Ororo held out a bag to Todd who took it gratefully, "remember Todd you gave it to me to keep safe."
"Oh yeh, I remember, so what do ya guys think, yo?"
"Nice Todd." Jamie held out his hand to look at the mug closer and Danny smiled at the snowman.
"It's really cute, I like it."
"Thank yo."
"How come your all home early," Ray quickly finished his mouthful and repeated himself as Jean glared at him.
"The lecture finished early today so Charles thought we would take them home today instead of them having to take the bus."
"Yeh, I can't stand the bus," Freddy frowned, "everyone stares at me like I'm a freak…"
"And?" Amara looked questioningly at Freddy who smiled at her.
"And I just ignore them…and occasionally stare back." Freddy quickly pointed at Bobby as Amara rolled her eyes, "Bobby said to do it!"
"Bobby!"
"What?"
Ororo smiled as the rest of the new mutants chatted happily and Jean and Scott went to join them, before she turned to look at Tabby who was just about to leave the room, beckoning to Bobby and Ray as she did. "Child, where is the rest of the household?"
Tabby stopped and turned around, trying not to look guilty, "uh…they went out for a bit…apart from Kurt, I have no idea where he is." As Tabby spoke the front door and back door both slammed shut and a babble of voices could be heard.
"Oh, don't worry Ororo," Jean smiled, "he's out with Amanda; they went to spend the day at the beach."
"How are they getting home?"
"Kurt's porting."
"Fair enough," Ororo turned back to Tabby, Bobby and Ray, "you can go you know, don't stop what you're doing on my account."
"K, cheers Ororo," the three of them stepped out of the door but then Tabby's head reappeared around it, "where's Prof. X and Wolvie?"
"Xavier had some other business to attend and Logan said he needed to go to his room to fetch something."
Tabby smirked at Ororo's response, "cheers," as Tabby spoke she made her way out of the door again and into the corridor turning to the boys with a manic glint in her eye. "You ready?"
Bobby smirked and nodded and Ray scoffed, "when are we not?"
VvVvVvV
Logan walked into his room slowly, looking about cautiously as he did and frowning…he could smell another scent, mixing with his own all over the room, but it was mainly emanating from the wardrobe. With a quick peer about his room, Logan turned the light switch on and entered his walk-in-wardrobe quietly, looking about as he did at all his clothes…they'd all been moved, disturbed and he could smell someone on each of them. But it was only when he reached his underwear drawer when the horrifying truth hit him; someone had entered his room and had been through his stuff…including his Christmas underwear and…Ororo's to! With a ferocious growl Logan ran out of the wardrobe and his room into the corridor, looking around to try and catch the scent on the air and follow it to the culprit. He was just about to go up the corridor to the boys' dorms, when suddenly he froze solid…he could smell it, the scent and it was leading him to the staircase. Logan followed with menace shining in his eyes, and the staircase just came in sight with Tabitha, who smiled at Logan sweetly. Logan began to slowly walk towards Tabby until she blew him a kiss and jumped onto the stair banisters and slid down them, just as she reached the bottom of the stairs the breath of air she blew hit him. Logan froze again and sniffed the air deeply, and the scent hit him…hard; Tabitha had been through his stuff…into his room, and his underwear, only one thought raced through his head; 'kill her!'
Logan wasted no time with the stairs and jumped over the landing banisters, landing perfectly cat like, just in time to see Tabitha running away from him towards the corridor leading to the kitchen. Logan followed with menace, running after her with speed, but he was catching up…when he was about a metre away from her the floor he was running on suddenly iced over and he skidded, flying at Tabby with renewed speed. Logan reached out to grab her but she changed directions and ran into the kitchen, watching from the doorway as Logan flew past into the wall at the end of the corridor with a smack. Tabby watched Logan get up and stumble, before he slipped again on the ice and landed on his bottom…hard, "oooooh! Nasty!" But Tabby didn't stay looking at him for long, because after a while as she knew would happen, the ice melted and Logan got up with a murderous twinkle in his eye. Tabby closed the door and stepped back into the kitchen and looked around, waiting…sure enough a loud slamming noise rang through the house as the ice around a trip wire unfroze and Logan tripped over it. Triggering a sequence of events that all connected to the living room door that swung open and slammed shut, signalling for Tabby to run for it, which she did. She ran through the other kitchen door on the opposite side of the kitchen and slammed it shut in Logan's face, just as Ray covered it in electricity that surged throughout the door and would shock anyone stupid enough to touch it. As planned, a yelp rang in the kitchen and they all heard a clanging noise as Logan jumped back from the door, and fell into the pan hanger. It had been cleverly hung just in the right place so that as he jumped back, Logan jumped into the pan hanger, knocking them all off and triggering the next sequence of events that opened the kitchen door to reveal Tabby. Tabby stood framed in the door and waved at Logan teasingly as he fought his way out of the pots and pans and the net that had been strung over the hanger. Tabby then turned tail and ran down the corridor as planned for the final event, and Logan rightly followed as they knew he would, slicing through the netting that covered him and through several pots and pans attached to the netting. But as he ran towards Tabby he noticed she had stopped next to the front door, calmly watching Logan as he ran towards her. Logan faltered and stopped running to get a better view of what she was holding…it seemed like a pulley but that wasn't all that made Logan falter, the confident, smug look on Tabby's face was enough to make anyone falter. But just as he decided to run for her again, Tabby opened her mouth and let out an ear-piercing scream that echoed, as she wanted, around the house. In no matter of time, the rest of the household was all surrounding the entrance hall, standing right behind Logan and facing where Tabby held the pulley. All apart from Ororo who moved to stand right next to Logan, to ask what was going on, but just as she stood next to him Bobby, Ray, Roberto and Rahne all nodded their head at Tabby, who, with a smug smirk, pulled the pulley.
The whole household gasped as a blown up picture unrolled and revealed it's contents to it's viewers;
