Kathy: IT'S BEEN OVER A MONTH.

Steve: It's your fault. Now we are in trouble with Blueshock.

Kathy, rolls eyes: Just because she said that if we were late again she was going to fire us doesn't mean she really meant it.

Steve: Sure she didn't.

Kathy: On with the story.

Chapter Sixteen

Lance was driving to x-van down the road. Everyone else was sitting in their seats, being quiet for awhile anyway.

"So," Kitty said," I feel like we are missing someone."

"Me too," Pietro said," But I can't figure out who."

They drove in silence until they got to the mall, where they saw Scotts red car parked in the parking lot. Trying to be as careful as possible, Lance tried to pull in next to it, but he hit the side doors.

"Opps," Lance said, as everyone looked at him." Hey this thing is big. I can barely control it."

Getting out of the van, they started to go into the mall, but some people stopped them.

"The mall is closed," One man with sunglasses on said.

"Then why are people walking into the place?" Lance asked, folding his arms.

"They are having a invent thingy," He said.

"Fine," Pietro said," Come on guys they are not worth are time."

Walking back to the van, they looked around. Lance looked at how bad the damage was to Scotts car. Everyone was looking at KFC.

"Do you think Scott will be really mad?" Lance asked, but didn't get an answer." Hey what are you guys doing?"

Lance looked at the others, then at the thing they were looking at. To his shock he saw Jean and Scott in the window, eating some food.

"I thought they went to the mall," Fred said.

"The mall is closed," Pietro said," If it was opened it would of took us forever to find them."

"Come on," Lance said," Lets go pay them a visit."

They quickly made there way over to KFC and went inside. A person quickly walked over to them.

"Welcome,"A man with braces said," What can I do you for today?"

"You can move out of my way," Lance hissed.

The man frowned, but quickly moved out of the way to let them pass. They walked over to the table where Jean and Scott were. Jean looked at them all, then at Scott.

"What?" Scott asked, not noticing that the others were behind him." You not having fun?"

"I know I'm not," Lance whispered, causing Scott to jump alittle.

"Oh," Jean said," We were just having a nice meal. Weren't we Scott?"

"Ya," Scott said," That's all."

"You listen and listen good," Lance hissed, moving closer to the table so only they could hear." If you ever go out in public with my body, don't come to KFC. I hate this place so much."

"Is that all?" Scott asked, standing up.

"And don't go out in public with Todds body," Lance said.

"Hey," Kitty said," That's who we are missing."

"Oh," Rogue said," Didn't we leave him tied to a chair?"

"Ya," Wanda said," That was a good idea."

"Ve should ge back," Kurt said," He might be worried or something like that."

They left KFC in silence, but when Scott saw his car that started it.

"WHAT HAPPENED?" Scott shouted, running over to his car.

"I'm sure your Professor can fix it," Lance said as if it was nothing.

"YOU HIT MY CAR," Scott shouted.

"It was an accident," Lance said.

"YOU DID IT ON PURPOSE," Scott shouted, running over to Lance ready to hit him.

"That's enough," Rogue said, speeding over and grabbing Scotts arm." We don't need to fight right now."

"She is right Scott," Jean said," We need to get back to the massion. We need to check on Todd."

Scott looked at Jean, then at everyone else. Turnning back to his car, he slowly got in, followed by Jean. The others quickly got into the x-van and followed Scott out of the parking lot and down the road.

Todd sat in the chair, tapping his fingers on the bottom of his seat. Looking at the door every five minutes then looking back at the TV, that just happened to be turnned off.

"This is torture," Todd groaned," Who leaves their house with someone tied to a chair. Hey wait a minute, Storm is suposed to be here. STORM, HELP ME."

Storm looked up from her flowers, but then looked back at them.' Thought I heard something,' Storm thought,' But it's nothing. You need water my little plants.'

Kathy: Storm is beginning to freak me out.

Steve: Me too. Anyway we will try to update earlier.

Kathy: Now be kind and please leave a review.
