Disclai---No! I WON'T say it! *sticks tongue out* You can't make me!
A/N: Rahne is the mutant who can change into a dog, right?
A/N #2: If you can correctly guess what Chibi-Magneto's doing to Magneto, you'll get a mention in this fic in an upcoming chappie! ^.^ (It shouldn't be too hard; I'm practically obsessed with the idea, there's references all over the place)
*~*~*~
"C'mon! It's not that bad!" Chibi-Magneto studied his handiwork closely.
"It's a dress." Magneto clenched his teeth together.
"No," corrected Chibi-Magneto, suddenly adopting the air of a snobbish fashion designer. "It is a robe."
"I look like a hopeful bride."
"You look like a crazy old man is what you look like," said Chibi-Colossus.
"You stay out of this," retorted Magneto's Chibi. "And he looks wise and powerful."
"But nothing here is made of metal."
"The stick is." Chibi-Magneto pointed to said accessory.
"Can't I please have my helmet?" Magneto whined pitifully.
"No, the ugly redness contrasts with the white."
"But you wear red."
"I'm working on it. You're the bigger priority right now."
Magneto sighed unhappily. Why had he ever allowed himself to get involved in this wild scheme?
"'Cuz I promised to bring back your notes on the X-Men!" bubbled Chibi-Pyro happily.
"Pirate!" cried Sparky. Pyro hopped to his feet and rummaged around the DVD rack.
"Now where is that movie . . .?"
~
After a very lengthy search around the school grounds, Storm and her Chibi finally found what they were looking for.
They took the hose up to Rogue's room, flew through the window to the hallway, and sprayed all the Jamie and Chibi-Jamie clones until one very soaked and battered Jamie and one very soaked and battered Chibi-Jamie remained.
They dashed for the nearest bathroom to dry off.
After ensuring that no clones remained, the two Storms left Rogue's room by the window to return the hose. Shortly (VERY shortly) after all this, Remy and Chibi-Gambit appeared in the doorway, striking a heroic pose.
"We're here to save you, Rogue!"
Rogue regarded Remy coldly. "You're a little late."
"Yeah!" agreed Chibi-Rogue, sounding just like that little brat Myrtle Edmond's gang. (From Lilo & Stitch)
"Vell, I'll just be leaving now," said Kurt, quickly bamfing away.
"But we're supposed to be your knights in shining armor!" cried Chibi-Gambit forlornly, wishing that they hadn't paused downstairs.
"Well, yer not."
"What's this?" asked Remy slyly, moving closer to the bed to see the pictures that both Rogues had been giggling over.
"Nothing!" they cried, a slight blush rising in their cheeks as they both made a grab for them.
Remy got to them first and glanced through the pile.
"You got Remy's good side," he beamed, then passed the pile to his Chibi.
"How'd you get these?"
Rogue and Chibi-Rogue sighed.
"Ah paid Rahne to wander the town following you with a camera. Then Ah swore her to secrecy."
"So that explains that dog following us all over the place that day . . ." Remy mused thoughtfully.
"Hey, this is when we were in a store buying Cheetos!" said Chibi-Gambit, inspecting the picture closely.
"That must have been taken yesterday."
"And this is when we went to the theater to see Return of the King!"
"One seriously excellent movie!" put in Chibi-Rogue. The other three (four, counting Chibi-Nighty, who was still under the bed) nodded energetically in reply.
A/N: Yes, yes, I'm warping their opinions, I know, but if they don't like it, poo on them! ^_~
With great flourish, Remy relinquished the pictures to his beloved, and dove out the window. With a scream of both fear and surprise, Rogue flew towards it. Remy, sitting in the tree that was conveniently located right outside her room, waved and climbed downward gracefully.
With a relatively small running leap, Chibi-Gambit too leapt out the window, landed in the tree, and climbed down.
Once both Remys were on the ground, they waved and walked off towards the Institute's gates.
Once both Rogues were sure that the Remys couldn't see them, they sunk down to the floor, sighing.
"Ah think Ah love him," said Chibi-Rogue happily. Rogue nodded, not being able to help it.
"Yeah."
Chibi-Nighty, who'd obviously heard the confession, snickered from where he was still sitting under Rogue's bed.
The girls' heads snapped up at the small sound of laughter.
"Ah'm gonna kill 'im," growled Chibi-Rogue, quickly moving towards the bed and pulling up the blankets to peek underneath.
There was nothing there.
The Rogues snapped their fingers resentfully, then vowed revenge on the tiny Kurt.
~
After the Jamie incident, Ororo and her Chibi had retreated to Hank's lab to find him and his Chibi, then try to come up with some way of averting this sort of incident in the future.
On the way, they again ran into Chibi-Wolvie, who again begged them to not reveal anything about him to Logan. And, just like before, they agreed.
After leaving the Storms behind, Chibi-Wolvie thought about his little adventures in the past nine chapters, and then suddenly decided he needed a new style of evading Logan. So, he hopped down from the ceiling and tapped his chin thoughtfully, waiting for inspiration to strike.
And waited.
And waited.
And waited a little longer.
When nothing seemed like it was coming, or whatever might have been on its way was taking its sweet time, Chibi-Wolvie growled at his imagination and scampered down towards the Institute's exit.
He had some vague hint of a plan in the back of his head. Finally.
~
"I'm done!" cried Chibi-Magneto exultantly. He hopped down from the stool and motioned for Chibi-Colossus to bring a mirror for Magneto to survey himself.
Once the mirror was in place, Chibi-Magneto bade Magneto to open his eyes.
Once that happened, though, Chibi-Magneto did not get the reaction he expected.
"This is HORRIBLE!" cried Magneto, feeling ready to break something or kill someone. Maybe both. And then maybe cry afterward.
Experiment 625 chuckled in that annoying way he does. "Hey, Mags, you look worse than Gantu did when he declared himself Supreme Order-bringer."
Everyone except Chibi-Pyro and Pyro stared blankly at the failed experiment.
"Is that a bad thing?" Magneto asked a moment later. Sandwich Boy nodded.
"Oh, yeah."
"That's it!" cried Chibi-Magneto, tossing aside some of the spare white fabric. "I do NOT have to sit here and take this!" And he didn't. He stood up and stalked outside.
Blinking, his Chibi minions stared after their leader, wondering if they should follow or not. After a moment of this hesitation, Chibi-Pyro climbed to his feet and dashed after him.
"Hey, Boss!" called Chibi-Pyro, running to catch up as fast as his little legs could take him. "What's the haps?"
Chibi-Magneto glared at the Chibi-Pyromaniac.
"Why don't you go burn all of Magneto's other clothes, so all he'll have left is my outfit I made." It wasn't a suggestion, or even a question.
It was an order made by Chibi-Magneto, Chibi-Master of Metal!
Chibi-Pyro saluted. "Aye aye!" And he ran around to the back of the warehouse to sneak in through a dog door, since he was small enough.
Back inside, Sandwich Boy, having heard everything since he's got all of Stitch's powers, chuckled to himself.
"I wouldn't advise you to go look in your closet right now," said 625 in his usual annoying way.
Magneto gave the failed experiment a good, long look. "Why not?"
"Is that fire I smell?" asked Colossus, lumbering to his feet and looking in the direction of Magneto's room.
Figuring out the answer faster than Sonic the Hedgehog can run, Magneto screamed in sheer terror. Not for his clothes burning at that very second, not for his specially designed helmets melting just then, but in sheer terror upon realizing what Chibi-Magneto had said and planned.
"He's even more cunning than me," muttered Magneto angrily after he'd finished with his Scream of Terror.

Todd and Lance opened the door warily, expecting an ambush of some sort from the X-Men, figuring that they might try to blame them for the Chibi appearances.
But the only X-Man standing on the porch was Chibi-Wolvie, who had his claws outstretched and was admiring them happily while waiting for the door to be answered.
Todd and Lance slammed the door shut before Logan's Chibi noticed their presence.
"What's he doin' here?!" cried Todd.
"And where's Wolverine?" asked Lance, who was just a bit more calm. He peeked back out the door, which was promptly flung open to hit him in the face. "Ow!"
"Got any soda?" asked Chibi-Wolvie, strolling into the Brotherhood house as if he owned it. Which, by some very long, complicated family relations and their wealth concerning land, Logan did in fact own a third of the house, but he and his Chibi had absolutely no idea of it.
Todd and Lance pointed wordlessly to the kitchen.
"Thanks," continued Chibi-Wolvie, who went into the kitchen to see Chibi-Toad, Chibi-Avalanche, Chibi-Blob, and Chibi-Wanda sitting at the table, eating pizza.
Chibi-Wanda was shooting the occasional look at Chibi-Toad, who would grin to himself each time she did.
Todd, obviously, was not happy with this. Toady's envious! And, also obviously, Wanda was even more upset. Not 'cuz she was envious, but she wanted her Chibi to have absolutely no relations with Todd's Chibi.
"Pizza!" said Chibi-Wolvie happily. The other four Chibis motioned to an empty chair, and Chibi-Wolvie immediately hopped onto it.
Just as Chibi-Wolvie started in on his slice, the door opened, Bubbles and Chibi-Quicksilver sped in and joined them at the table, taking their own slices of pizza.
Pietro sped in a moment later and glared at his Chibi and Bubbles.
"You cannot date a Powerpuff Girl!" he roared.
"Why not?" asked Chibi-Quicksilver.
"Because . . . because she's like five and you're my age!"
"How old are you?"
"I'm Wanda's age!"
"And how old is she?"
"I'm seventeen," piped up Chibi-Wanda.
"And you don't even look it," said Chibi-Quicksilver to his sister.
"You look maybe eight," Chibi-Wanda continued as she bit into the pizza crust. "Thanks."
"See?" gloated Chibi-Quicksilver. "Me and Bubbles can hang out as much as we want."
"Yeah!" agreed Bubbles.
"No you can't, Bubbles!" said Blossom sternly, flying into the room. "You know the Professor forbade us to date until we're twenty-five."
Bubbles' bottom lip quivered.
"Yeah!" said Buttercup, also flying in and hovering in the air.
Chibi-Wolvie waved at her. She waved back, blushing slightly. Frowning in major disapproval, Blossom smacked her on the back of her head.
This got Buttercup's temper going, and soon there was a Powerpuff fight in full swing.
Bubbles glanced at her two sisters, wrestling in midair, and cried for them to stop.
"I'd've won," gloated Buttercup once they gained enough sense to stop, earning a glare from Blossom.
"Yeah right," answered her sister, rolling her eyes.
As the two Powerpuffs hovered in midair arguing, not fighting, Logan appeared on the Brotherhood's back porch. Pietro screamed shrilly and ran upstairs to Mystique's room.
Fred, being the nice guy he is (albeit sometimes a destructive, dangerous, kidnapping sort of dude), opened the door for Wolverine.
Chibi-Wolvie dived under the table, wiping the seat of the chair with the remains of his pizza, then crawling slowly towards the oven.
"Can we help you?" Chibi-Blob asked jovially, and being thirsty, reached for a full two-liter bottle of soda.
"Yah," said Logan. "Any of you seen my . . . Chibi?"
Everyone shook their heads at precisely the same second, which was a sure indicator that something was up. Chibi-Wolvie carefully eased the oven door open and climbed in, slowly closing it behind him. Fortunately for him, Chibi-Blob was sitting in the chair right in front of the stove, thereby blocking it completely from Logan's view. How unlucky for him.
Logan narrowed his eyes.
"All right!" cried Chibi-Quicksilver. "You've forced it outta me! He's –"
Buttercup slammed the end of her handless arm over the Chibi's mouth. "Ehehehe, what he means is, he ate a bit more candy than he should have." She shot a look at him, and the fear in his eyes gave away his assent to her lie.
Bubbles glared at her sister. "He should tell the truth, Buttercup."
And so the two of them began to fight, Blossom acting as the referee. Of course, she was completely on Bubbles' side. Chibi-Quicksilver watched all this in concern, knowing that he shouldn't intrude on a Powerpuff fight, for it can prove fatal to all non-Powerpuffs, even mutants.
~
In order to keep Jean and Chibi-Jean from tearing the other's head off, Scott and Chibi-Cyclops decided that it would be most wise to keep them working on opposite sides of the room.
They were building a teleporter, under Forge's instructions. For some really odd reason, he didn't have a Chibi.
The only one without a Chibi.
This made him feel very alienated.
All the Institute Chibis were helping to build the teleporter, but they didn't know that it was a teleporter. Nor did they know that their larger counterparts wanted them to go away.
If they had known, this would have been very bad karma on the X-Men.
