Shout Outs-

Lia Fail- I guess I kinda overdid it with Rogue's talk of ass kicking. I agree, Emma rules!

Showstopper- That's exactly why I like Emma (ignoring the fact that she walks around with hardly anything on) she doesn't take any crap and speaks her mind. She seems to be the only one to have the guts to say it like it is.

Agent-G- As I said above, Emma rules! You'll get an explanation for Emma's hatred of redheads soon enough.

Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters-

Emma is sleeping soundly in her bed until she is rudely awoken by Amara, her roommate.

'Come on Emma, it's time for our morning Danger Room session!' Amara says, shaking her lightly. 'Mister Logan'll be pissed if you're late!'

'Not as pissed as I'll be when I get my hands on him!' Emma hisses. 'Where does he get off waking us up this early? Hasn't he got any decency?'

'Tell me about it.' Amara replies. 'It isn't becoming of a princess such as me to wake up at an ungodly hour such as this!'

Emma just growls and gets up out of bed.

'Here is your uniform.' Amara says, throwing it on Emma's bed.

Emma takes one look at the New Recruits uniform and laughs out loud.

'They expect me to wear this?' She laughs. 'Getting me up at half-past six on a Saturday is one thing but wearing black? They have to be kidding!'

'What is the matter with wearing black?' Amara asks. 'I find it quite fetching.'

'This is the last straw.' Emma says. 'I'm going to give that bloody Canadian a piece of my mind!'

'Can I have your clothes after he kills you then?' Amara asks.

Emma just storms out of the room in search of Logan.

Outside the Danger Room-

The other students are lined up outside the Danger Room. They're waiting for Emma and Amara to arrive.

'Where the flamin' hell are they?' Logan asks. 'I swear, if they ain't here in two seconds, yer all gonna get double time in the Danger Room!'

That elicits a groan form the assembled mutants, all except Scott that is, who we all know hasn't got a life and lives for the Danger Room.

'Look Mister Logan.' Kitty says. 'Like, here they are now!'

Logan spins around and fixes Emma with a glare. Amara lets out an 'eep' and joins the others.

'Why are yer late Frosty?' Logan asks. 'And why ain't yer in yer uniform?'

'Because I'm not going in there!' Emma replies, pointing a perfectly manicured finger in Logan's face.

The others gasp in shock at Emma's insolence. Logan leans in close to Emma.

'Now listen here Frosty, yer'd better watch what yer sayin or I ain't gonna be responsible fer what happens.'

'No!' Emma replies. 'You'd better watch what YOU'RE saying! I didn't come to this school to be run into the ground by a psychotic Canadian with a chip on his shoulder! I'm not going to tell you again, I'm not going in there!'

The other students gulp nervously as a vein in Logan's head starts to throb ominously.

'What seems to be the problem?' Xavier asks, rolling up.

'It seems that frosty here don't wanna join the others in their morning Danger Room session.' Logan replies.

'I see.' The professor says. 'Emma, can you please join me in my study?'

Emma follows the Professor down the hallway into his study.

'Alright then kids.' Logan says. 'Let's go, show's over!'

'It looks like your new girlfriend's got a death wish, Kurt.' Bobby says.

'Vhy is it alvays the crazy vuns?' Kurt mutters.

Later-

Emma has now finished her discussion with the Professor and she reluctantly agreed to join the others in the Danger Room.

'Ah Frosty.' Logan says from up in the control room. 'Nice of yer ter join us an' in yer uniform too.'

'I'd rather prefer white leather.' Emma mutters.

'Okay then kids.' Logan continues. 'This is yer usual game of Mutant Ball. All yer have ter do is get the ball inter the target.'

The students look at the basketball lying on the ground and the target not far away from that.

'Gee Mister Logan.' Jubilee says. 'That seems kinda easy.'

As if in answer, the Danger Room changes into a large rocky canyon with the ball lying at their feet and the target several feet up on a ledge.

'Me and my big mouth.' Jubilee mutters.

'This is a free-for-all, kids.' Logan says. 'So anythin' goes, even use of yer powers.'

The students wait until the buzzer goes. When it does, they all dive for the ball. Kurt is the first to catch it but Kitty soon phases through him, snatching the ball away. Tabitha throws a time bomb at Kitty's feet, making her drop the ball in surprise. Tabby then picks it up and runs for the target. Bobby is next as he ices up the ground underneath Tabby's feet, making her slip up. Bobby then catches it and ices up a slide to get him to the target. Hr turns around and much to his surprise he sees Sam's barrelling towards him. Sam collides into him, snatching the ball away. Sam is almost at the target when he sees Rahne leap through the air in her wolf form. Wolfsbane snatches the ball out of his grasp.

'Sorry 'bout that sweety!' She says apologetically. 'But ye know, anythin' goes!'

Rahne then throws the ball towards the target. The ball is mere inches away from the target when it halts in midair.

'Aww, jean!' Rahne moans. 'That isnae fair!'

'Sorry Rahne.' Jean says. 'But anything goes.'

Jean is about to throw the ball into the target when somebody tackles her to the ground viciously.

'Dammit Emma, watch it!'

'Oh sorry, Jean!' Emma replies. 'Did I make you lose your concentration? Ha! Loser!'

Emma then snatches up the ball and throws it at the target. The buzzer goes off once more, signifying the end of the situation.

'Booyah!' Emma yells. 'In your face Red, I won, you didn't! I am the best!'

Jean just curses under her breath and get sup off the ground, walking towards the exit.

'Alright kids.' Logan says. 'Game over, get ter the showers.'

Amara and Tabby run upto Emma as she walks out of the Danger Room.

'Holy crap!' Tabby says. 'You kicked butt!'

'I agree.' Amara adds. 'It's about time that somebody took Jean down a notch.'

'Why thanks you two.' Emma replies. 'That's real nice of you. Hey, why don't you meet me in my room later, I've got an idea!'

'Seeya then!' Tabby says.

'I wonder what she's got planned.' Amara says.

'Knowing her it'll be a way to humiliate Little-Miss-Perfect again. I'm in either way!'

After breakfast and a change of clothes-

Emma is walking down the corridor dressed in a short white leather miniskirt and a vest top with the slogan '50% sexy, 50% intelligent, 100% bitch!'

'You bitch!' A voice yells behind her.

Emma turns around and sees Jean storming towards her.

'And what can I do for you on such a fine day, Jean dear?' Emma asks with a cocky smile.

'Just what the hell were you thinking back there in the Danger Room?' Jean hisses. 'You almost broke my ribs!'

'Awww, poor Jean!' Emma coos mockingly. 'Did I almost hurt you liddle-bitty back?'

'And what's with your clothes?' Jean asks. 'They just seem to say 'Pet me, I'm a whore!'

'Seems to me that somebody's jealous.' Emma replies. 'Tell me one thing, do you even have an opinion that you didn't get from a book?'

'At least I read a book!' Jean shoots back.

'Don't even try the snotty-redhead-prep crap with me Jean, dear.' Emma replies. 'I came in the top ten if my class.'

'What class?' Jean asks. 'Advanced bosoms?'

'Once again, jealous much?' Emma asks.

'Why would I be jealous of a bitch like you?' Jean asks. 'You're nothing more than common white trash!'

'At least I'm not a redheaded whore!' Emma shoots back.

That's too much; Jean slaps Emma across the face.

'Is that all you've got?' Emma asks. 'Come on Jean, give me your best shot!'

Jean narrows her eyes and Emma's finds herself being flung across the room by Jean's telekinesis.

The red room-

Bobby, Kurt, Rogue and Kitty are sitting watching TV when the wall explodes behind them. They jump out of their seats and look over at the pile of rubble and dust. Much to their amazement they see Emma get up fro under the mess and now her skin seems to have taken on a diamond-like sheen.

'Nice try Jean, dear!' Emma yells. 'But I'm still standing!'

She then leaps through the gaping big whole in the wall and grabs Jena in a headlock.

'CATFIGHT!' Bobby yells. 'YEAH!'

Jean gets out of Emma's headlock by stamping on her foot. Emma lets out a yell of pain and lets her go. Jean then grabs Emma by the hair and throws her to the ground. She then straddles her and proceeds to pound her head into the ground.

'Ooh, Jean!' Emma coos. 'If only Scott knew that you liked it so rough!'

Emma then grabs Jean's wrists and spins her around so that she is now lying on the floor. Emma then proceeds to pound her head into the ground.

'Ah think that ah'd better get th' Professor.' Rogue says.

'I'll like, come with you.' Kitty replies.

That just leaves Kurt and Bobby; standing there drooling at the sight of two women tearing each other's clothes off and scratching each other.

Later-

A battered and bruised Jean and Emma are now sat in the Professor's office.

'I must say that I am sorely disappointed in the both of you.' Xavier says. 'Most of all you Jean. What has gotten into you?'

'That... bitch tried to steal Scott away from me!' Jean replies.

Xavier ignores Jean's language for a moment and turns to Emma.

'Is this true, Emma? Did you indeed try to steal Scott away from Jean?'

'Oh please, Professor!' Emma snorts. 'Give me some credit! I do have better taste than that. I was only flirting, I didn't have any intention of stealing that stick-up-the-ass loser away from her.'

'That still doesn't take away the fact that both of you destroyed the rec room wall.' Xavier says. 'And as punishment you will both have to rebuild it.'

'No problem, Professor.' Emma says. 'I'll pay for the lot, I am rich enough after all.'

'Very well then.' Xavier says. 'However, if there is a repeat of this morning's incident, I will have to take more drastic measures. You may leave now.'

'You won't have to worry about that, Professor.' Emma replies. 'I think that Jean's had her butt whupped enough for today.'

Before Jean can make a comeback, Emma sticks her tongue out and walks out of the room.
