"It's quiet." Logan said to the other adults as they were hiding out in the kitchen. "Too quiet."

"You're being paranoid." Storm said.

"It's merely peaceful." Xavier agreed.

"Don't you ever learn?" Logan asked. "You know what happens every time the Misfits come over!"

"Logan, everything will be fine." Xavier said calmly.

"Wanna bet?" Low Light demanded.

"Let's review." Pietro said. "Shaving cream?"

"Check." Todd answered.

"Water balloons?"

"Check." Said Kurt.

"Stink bombs?"

"Check." Ray replied.

"Silly string?"

"Check." Arcade said.

"Toilet paper?"

"Check." Tim said.

"Eggs?"

"Double check." Roberto answered.

"This going to be sweet!" Remy crowed. "Every time we have a sleepover those femmes nail us! This time we get the drop on them for a change!"

"And we'll get to show that Hellion she's not wanted around here!" Bobby said. Everyone rolled their eyes. They knew—even if Bobby didn't—that even if he managed to prank Catseye that the girls would support her when she got Bobby back and end up bringing them closer together anyway.

They thought about telling Bobby that his plan wouldn't work, but they decided against it. For one thing, he wouldn't listen anyway. For another, it'd be too amusing to watch him get his when this scheme backfired as they all knew it would. And finally…it was Bobby, what else need be said?

"I hope we aren't going too far." Everett said worriedly as he looked at the arsenal they'd stockpiled.

"Nah," Todd waved. "They're big girls, they can handle a little TP and water balloons."

"And you're not worried about the inevitable blowback from this?" Sam asked. "They'll kill us!"

"No they wont, Al loves me!"

"It's not you we're worried about Toad." Shane groaned. "You're girlfriend doesn't shoot fireworks from her hands."

"Or make bombs." Sam said.

"Or turn into a magma creature." Roberto said.

"Since when were you and Amara an item?" Scott asked.

"We're not. I'm just saying…"

"Well if you X-Geeks are chicken…" Lance insinuated.

"Ha! We can outdo you Misfit morons any day of the weak!" Scott snapped.

"That's right!" Peter said, "We'll show you."

"Did anyone else hear that?" Fred asked. "It sounded like someone's outside the door."

"Might be the girls." Jamie said. "Someone should check it out."

"Good idea. Thanks for volunteering squirt!" Bobby said as he shoved Jamie out the door.

"No, wait don't! What if Trinity is out there?" Jamie cried.

"Think of yourself as a scout." Scott said. "Investigating enemy positions."

"Or a secret agent." Roberto suggested.

"Just remember." Pietro said pompously as he laid a hand on Jamie's shoulder. "While you're out there risking life and limb through shot and shell, we'll be in here…thinking what a sucker you are!" He added as he slammed the door shut, locking Jamie out.

"No! Come on you guys don't do this to me!" Jamie whined.

"Is something wrong cutie?" Some said from behind him. Jamie turned around and gulped when he saw Spyder and the Triplets standing behind him. "You're so cute when you're terrified." Trinity giggled.

"Wanna steal his pants?" Spyder suggested with a grin.

"Sure." Trinity agreed.

"STAY AWAY FROM MEEEE!" Jamie screamed as he ran down the hall. "Somebody save me!" Jamie ran down the hall, looking for someplace to hide. Desperate, he blindly opened one of the doors and ran inside, shutting it behind him. He panted as he leaned against the door.

"Safe." He sighed. "I'm safe…"

"Can we help you?" Jamie looked up to see all the other girls in the Mansion looking at him as they sat in their PJs. He had run into Rahne's room.

"Umm….no?" Jamie said. Someone started pounding on the door. "Aaah! Save me! Save me please!" Jamie pleaded as he latched onto the first girl he saw. "Don't let the Triplets and Spyder strip me!" Sharon looked down at the little boy clinging to her.

"This happen often?" She asked the others.

"Yeah, pretty much." Althea said. "Okay, Jamie, we won't let my sisters and Spyder strip you…"

"Really?" Jamie blinked.

"IF," Althea continued. "You tell us what you're doing out in the halls anyway."

"The guys threw me out." He sniffed, deciding to pour it on. "They wanted to use me to see if you were out there when they planned their stupid prank."

"Oh did they?" Althea asked wickedly. "Xi, do you think you could do us a favor…?"

"Quiet." Toad whispered as the boys were creeping along the wall. "Be more ninja-like. Like me!"

"You are not a ninja." Scott hissed.

"Am so!"

"Am not!"

"Am so!"

"Am—YOW! All right who just snapped the back of my shorts?" Scott demanded.

"Must've been the same guy who did it to my pajama bottoms." Lance muttered. "He got me too."

"And me!" "Yeah, me too!" "Don't forget me!" "What is this?"

"Something very strange is going on here…" Scott mused.

"You better believe it mister." Jean said as the girls showed up. "You boys wouldn't be up to something, now would you?" She asked.

"Umm…no?" Scott said, unknowingly mimicking Jamie.

"Lance!" Kitty said, stamping her foot.

"Kitty…" Lance whined.

"Scott!" Jean demanded.

"Jean!" Scott pleaded.

"Tabby!" Lance said.

"Lance!"

"Ray!"

"Amara!"

"Peitro!"

"Todd!"

"Al…"

"Tim!"

"Betsy!"

"Arcade!"

"Spyder!"

"Kitty!" Lance whimpered.

"Rocky…" Tabitha warned.

"Bullwinkle!" Fred shouted.

"Steve Holt!" Arcade yelled. Everyone just looked at him. "What? Arrested Development is a great show!"

"Get 'em!" Bobby yelled as he whipped out his shaving cream and silly string. "Especially Catseye!"

The boys fired a huge salvo of eggs, stink bombs, water balloons, toilet paper, silly string, and most everything else imaginable. It hurled through the air only stop inches from the girls.

"When will you boys learn not to annoy a telekinetic?" Jean grinned as she flicked her wrist and sent it all back at the boys.

"Oh no." Scott winced as the boys were hit with their own barrage.

"Aww man." Pietro said as he got hit with a stink bomb. "I smell worse than Toad!"

"MMMHMHHHFF!" Remy yelled as his face got wrapped up in toilet paper.

"Ahhhh!" Ray said as he was pummeled with eggs.

"Should've seen this coming." Tim muttered as he ended up with a 'beehive' hairdo made of silly string.

"How?" Jesse asked as he wiped his face after being hit with a water balloon.

Althea grinned. "Misfits…" The Misfit girls reached behind them and started squirting the guys with syrup and honey in special super-soakers.

"X-Girls…" Jean said as they started to toss handfuls of flour at the boys, which stuck to the syrup and honey.

"Now! Together!" Althea said as the girls grabbed their pillows and started pummeling the guys.

"Retreat!" Todd yelled. "Everyman for himself!"

"Oh man, how did they even know we were coming?" Remy wondered as Rogue smacked him across the face with a pillow.

"You shouldn't have been mean to me." Jamie said from behind the girls. "Nyah!"

"We'll get you back for this!" The feather and flour covered Bobby swore at the untouched girls.

"What makes you think we're through?" Althea asked, grinning evilly. "Thanks to Xi and Tabitha our last surprise should be ready in three…two…one…"

"PANTS DOWN!" The girls yelled as the time bombs Xi had stuck in the boys' pajama bottoms—specially made by Tabitha—exploded, literally knocking the pants off the guys.

"Xi! You traitor!" Pietro screamed as he covered himself. Xi snickered as the girls started laughing uproariously.

"Retreat!" Lance yelled, red in the face.

"I agree!" Peter shouted as the boys ran back to their room.

"FULL MOON TONIGHT!" Tabitha yelled.

"A year load of full moons!" The Triplets cackled as the boys ran out of sight. Sharon just stared at the other girls.

"And people call Catseye weird?" She wondered.

"Well, that was humiliating." Scott groaned as the boys put on new pairs of pajama bottoms and shorts.

"Thanks a lot, Bobby." Lance said. "Now I have something new to talk about in therapy!"

"I think we all need therapy now!" Doug moaned.

"Now we really have to pay the girls back." Bobby said. "But how…?" He paused. "Maybe one of us should go plant a camera in their room, catch them snoring or something."

"Would be a great chance to see some pillow fight action." Ray sniggered. "But I'm not going back there."

"Fine, then I'll do it!" Bobby snapped as he grabbed a small camera Forge had made off the TV. "This will send back all the pictures we need and we don't even need any wires! I just want to go back to my room to…get a new pair of pajamas, then I'll give the girls a taste of their own medicine! Ha!" He laughed as he ran out.

"That boy just won't learn." Sam said as he shook his head.

"Idiot." Shane pronounced.

Bobby rushed back to his room and, after changing, quickly typed out an email. "This will show 'em…" He muttered. "Now, to work!" He said as he went back to plant his camera in the girls' room.

Bobby sat outside the door with the camera on to wait for the right distraction…

"That was fun!" Althea was saying.

"Yeah, those dopes would end up hoisting themselves on their own petards." Rogue agreed.

"You've been paying attention in Beast's class, haven't you?" Paige asked her.

"Maybe now that Kitty saw both Lance and Peter in their fullest, maybe she'll come to a choice." Tabitha teased.

"Like shut up, Tabby!" Kitty snapped.

"At least Kitty isn't being as dumb as Bobby is." Rahne said. "Did you hear him, going after Catseye like that? The jerk!"

"No kidding." Dead Girl said. "It's a good thing it was Bobby, otherwise it might have had a chance at succeeding!" The girls had a good laugh about that as Bobby sat outside fuming.

"He is really stupid." Wanda said.

"Yeah, totally." Kitty admitted.

"I mean, you think that he'd have learned his lesson after he went after Lance?" Althea asked. "But no, now he's going after Catseye!"

"Iceman make Bevatron look smart." Sharon said. "Catseye not think it was possible!"

"There is no one in the entire Mansion as dumb as him." Betsy said.

"Testify!" Jamie said as Rogue mussed his hair. Bobby was furious to see the girls practically fawning over him.

"Yeah, he's not a sweet boy like you." Jubilee cooed.

"If only Bobby were more like Multiple." Althea said.

"Yeah, Jamie's way more mature than Bobby!" Spyder said.

"I'd almost rather have Pyro on the team than Bobby." Amara said.

"You can have him." Angelica muttered. "But I see why you'd want to be rid of that idiot."

"Hey!" Bobby snapped before he could stop himself. "I am not an…idiot?" He trailed off as Jean opened the door.

"I beg to differ." She said dryly.

"Have you anything to say for yourself before we pass sentence?" Tabitha asked.

"Um…it was Sam's idea?"

"IT WAS NOT!" Sam yelled from down the hall.

"Is that camera on?" Jubilee asked. "Good. Let's give the boys a show they won't soon forget!"

"I know just what you're thinking." Lina said. "Rogue! Wanda! Get out your makeup. It's time for a…"

"MAKEOVER!" Everyone shouted.

"NOOOOO!" Bobby screamed as they dragged him in. "NOT THAT! ANYTHING BUT THAT!"

Back in the boys' room, everyone was watching on the television as the girls gave Bobby a complete makeover.

"Ooooh, that looks emasculating." Lance said as he swallowed a handful of popcorn. "Someone pass the butter."

"I didn't know you could do that with a roller." Scott said.

"Or that you could put it there." Shane snickered.

"They're doing a real nice job on his nails." Pietro said. "Maybe I should ask them the next time I need a manicure…"

"That mascara is just his color." Kurt laughed.

"And the blush really brings out his eyes." Todd said. "They might even make him look half-way attractive."

"They're girls Toad, not miracle workers." Fred sniggered.

"Are we taping this? Please tell me we're taping this." Sam asked.

"Don't worry, that camera automatically records everything." Forge said. "We'll be tormenting Bobby about this for years!"

"Hey look! Little C and Baby Beaky are getting in on the action!" Toad said as the babies drew on Bobby's face with lipstick.

"And what's Penny doing?" Pietro wondered. "Oh, they're cutting his clothes off too…wow, now that's an emasculating outfit!" He said as the girls stuffed him in a frilly pink dress.

"Yeesh, Little Bo Peep would be embarrassed to wear that!" Arcade said.

"Something tells me that Bobby is going to be much more manageable for a while." Scott smiled.

"I was able to track Sharon's psychic residue to a clearing near the school." Celandine told Emma Frost back in the Hellion's Dorm. "I also detected someone else's. A mutant I think, but it's too dissipated for me to tell."

"I checked that entire clearing." Warpath added. "I saw traces of a struggle, but then it was if they both vanished. I saw no footprints, tracks, tire-treads, or anything to suggest a vehicle or craft appeared."

"So we still have no idea where Sharon is." Frost said coldly.

"Miss Frost! I think you better take a look at this!" Jetstream said as he called from the living room.

Frost walked in to see reports of a riot on TV. She blinked as the reporter said that it was the work of Christians and Communists beating up Purity and the Friends of Humanity.

"That is odd." She admitted.

"Hey Evan, isn't that your old friend Duncan Matthews?" Jetstream asked as he pointed at the screen.

"OW! Cut it out! OWWOWWOWW! Not the face! Mommy!"

"Yeah, that's Duncan all right." Evan confirmed.

"As fascinating as this is." Emma Frost blinked. "This still doesn't help us look…for…Sharon?" She gaped as a little girl showed the cameraman her picture of a purple lion. The little girl wrote the name 'ASLAN' underneath but there was no mistaking who it was.

"What the hell?" Celandine asked. "Sharon beat up the Purists and FOH?"

"How'd she end up there?" Jetstream wondered.

"I'm going to check online, see if I can find any more stuff about that riot." Evan said as he sat down. "Hey I got an email from…no way! Miss Frost you need to read this!"

Emma Frost looked at the screen and promptly yelled, "SHARON IS WHERE?"
