Chapter Nine
One month later
The brotherhood had to stay with the x-men, after Lance losted control of his powers and destoryed the house. Kathy, Kurt, Katie, and Jr were sitting in the living room. Todd was standing in the doorway, watching them. The other x-men and brotherhood were still sleeping. It was only about 3:00 in the morning.
"What are you doing?" Todd asked, after about standing there for twenty minutes.
"Be quiet," Katie said," It's on."
Todd looked at the tv to see that 'The Snurks' were playing. He looked at them, then back at the tv.
"You must be kidding," Todd said.
"Be quiet," Kurt snapped," This is a good show."
Todd rolled his eyes and went back to his room.'Stupid tv show,' Todd thought. He went into his room, locked the door and went to bed.
Kurt, Kathy, Katie, and Jr sat in the living room, watching the show until everyone else was up.The x-men went into the living room and stared at the tv.
"What are you watching?" Scott asked.
"The snurks," Jr said.
"Well," Bobby said, taking the remote off the table." It's time for the news."
"Bobby," Kitty said," That is like rude. Let them watch their show."
"It's okay," Kurt said," It was on all night."
Everyone stared at them, wondering how he knew that it was on all night. Kathy looked at them, then looked at Kurt.
"We watched the show about four times," Kathy said," I'm tired. I'm going to bed."
Kathy stood up and headed upstairs. Kurt quickly ran after her. Katie and Jr were watching the show still. Bobby changed the channel.
"No," Katie whined," That was the best part."
"Turn it back Bobby," Kitty said," It's not going to hurt."
Bobby rolled his eyes, but turned the tv back to 'The Snurks.' He put the remote back on the table. The x-men watched the show. When it was over, they turned it to the news.
"In todays news," The reporter said," A building fell down. It seems to be another mutant lab and it looks like mutants destoryed it. People are more afraid now. What could these things do to us? Are they safe? Can we allow them in our schools? We still have no news on the mutant law, but we will know about it at the end of the day."
Scott turned off the tv.
"Same old," Scott said," Why can't they talk about the weather or something? I heard that a building fell down, but it was because of some kids and they didn't put it on the news. They only show the things that are bad for us."
Everyone was staring at Scott with a look of shock. How did he know about the building falling?
"Scott," Jean said," You must be calm. That mutant law has been this way and that, but has never been passed. I really don't think it will ever be passed."
Just then the brotherhood walked into the living room. Todd looked a little tired, but was not showing any signs of going back to sleep.
"How is the day looking?" Lance asked, as they sat down.
"Same old, same old," Kitty said.
"That bad," Pietro said," Like always. Anything about Magnetos where abouts?"
"No," Kitty, Jean, Scott, and Rogue said.
"He'll show up soon," Pietro said.
"Not bet on it," Wanda said," I can't believe it. I come here for a few days and decide to stay here and just wait for him to show up. What was I thinking?"
"Don't worry," Todd said.
"Shut up slime," Wanda snarled," I didn't fall for you then and I'm not falling for you now."
"Calm down," Todd said," I don't like you anymore."
"Good," Wanda said," Lets keep it that way."
Everyone was silent while they watched tv. Kathy and Kurt didn't come out of their room for a few hours. They joined the others and had a day like any other day.
