Aprilangel413: Happy New Years, and crap.
Disclaimer: I don't own X-Men Evolution
Sabertooth held a firm grip on Mystique's shoulder as he led her to a metal chair in front of a metal desk. He pushed her down into the seat and then released her. Of course she could have run at any time but she now had two reasons to talk to Magneto. The huge metal chair behind the desk turned around and the figure in it stood.
"Where were you?" Magneto demanded.
"My train was late." She said standing up so he no longer towered over her.
Magneto sat back down to think about her answer but Mystique stayed standing.
"Your idiots trashed my car." Mystique said angrily.
Magneto leaned to the right glancing past Mystique to his Acolytes. Sabertooth grinned with pride while Colossus kept his eyes down. Gambit was playing with his cards and Pyro was trying not to laugh.
"Was it the blue one?" Pyro asked.
Mystique turned and glared at the Aussie.
"Yes." She hissed.
"Oh I luved that one." John said acting like he was truly upset about the car.
Mystique ignored him and turned back to Magneto.
"You should thank who ever made my train late. I've acquired some…interesting information." She said snaring Magneto's attention.
"About…" Magneto said trying to act aloof.
"A little party last night. It seems that some jock-" Mystique started but was cut off by a certain flame boy.
"Duncan." Pyro corrected.
Mystique threw him a quick glare then returned to her story.
"Duncan… threw a little party. Xavier's team went and the girls ended up drunk." Mystique said sitting back down.
Magneto was growing frustrated now.
"And what does this have to do with me?" Magneto asked.
"Nothing really I just thought that you would like to know why your daughter has a hangover." Mystique said reeling him in.
"Wanda was there? She was drinking?" Magneto asked a bit shocked.
"Well actually she didn't know that she was drinking, and I believe that Pyro had to pull her out of a bed with some high schooler." Mystique said prepared not to speak for a little while now.
Magneto stood up and walked over to his men.
"Is this true." He asked looking at Pyro.
"Yes sir. Some hommies try ta take advantage of de fillies. De Brotherhood, X-men, an us had ta save dem." Gambit said.
"You are all dismissed." Magneto said walking back to his desk and opening one of the drawers.
The Acolytes left and Mystique stood up.
"Go back to the Brotherhood. I have an old friend to visit." Magneto said grabbing the keys to his metallic silver Hummer.
The X-Men climbed out of the X-Van and Jean's SUV ready to head up to their rooms and crash. Jean walked up to Scott and looped her arm through his.
"I never thanked you for trying to save us. Even if it didn't work it's the thought that counts." Jean said smiling slightly.
Scott was about to say something when a very daunting figure approached them.
"You two have some explaining to do." Logan growled.
Scott sighed and looked to the ground. Ororo joined them as they walked to the professor's office. Luckily Xavier was out of town for a few days, if he wasn't then the whole secret plan thing never would have happened. Scott and Jean sat down in the leather seats in front of the desk while Logan and Ororo stood behind it. Do to the lack of need to have a chair behind the desk there wasn't one. Logan was about to start his lecture when Hank walked in with Kurt and Evan, neither of them had a scratch on them. Hank joined the other adults behind the desk while the boys grabbed some chairs that were against the wall. Logan took a deep breath, allowing all of this new knowledge sink in.
"Now, would one of you be kind enough to tell us what is going on?" Hank asked.
"And we'd like the truth this time." Ororo added looking over to Kurt and Evan.
The children all looked to the ground and then Jean and Scott looked up.
"It's my fault." They said then looked at each other surprised.
"No it's my fault." They each insisted standing up.
"I knew about this and I didn't tell-" Scott said as Jean said, "I heard about it but I didn't believe it-"
They both continued to ramble on, giving reasons why they were responsible. Soon Evan and Kurt jumped in saying things like, "We should have watched them better."
"Shut up." Logan shouted popping his claws.
Everyone stopped talking and sat down. Logan retracted his claws and Ororo took over.
"Thank you. Now one at a time, tell us what happened."
Scott was the one who retold most of the heartbreaking tale. Though the guys and Jean did interrupt a few times to tell their part.
"And it was a teenage thing so we thought we could handle it, without help from adults. But we were wrong and take full responsibility for our actions." Scott said finishing up the story.
Hank sighed and looked up at the other teachers.
"Thank you, you're all allowed to go." He said waving them out.
Once they had all left he turned to Ororo and Logan.
"Any suggestions for punishment would be greatly valued." He said dully.
"I don't think that the children should be punished. They were just trying to do what we've trained them to do and were embarrassed to ask for help." Ororo said.
"And what exactly is that?" Logan asked angrily.
"To protect others." Ororo answered staying calm despite Logan's attitude.
"It is obvious that we will not come to an agreement at this moment in time. I propose that we a wait for Xavier's to return. Once he is informed he cancome up withthe most suitable consequence for the students." Hank said.
Ororo nodded and Logan grunted in approval. They stood in an awkward silence until Ororo decided to check on the girls.
Xavier had no sooner rolled up to his desk to be informed about something that had happened while he was away when all the alarms went off. And over the alarms he could hear the majority of the female members of the team groan and yell at the alarms. Hank got behind him and pushed his chairout to the front door. There he saw Magneto walking towards him, breaking every defensive device that stood in his way. Xavier glanced to his right and then his left. The male half of his team stood next to him ready to fight. Magneto approached the steps and looked down at Xavier.
"I believe we have some business to discuss Charles." He said.
"Try using the doorbell next time." Logan muttered to himself.
Magneto threw him a glare and Logan used all his will power not to kill him on the spot. But still no one moved, for they had been taught never to make the first move. So they stood there awaiting Xavier's response to this intrusion.
"Let us bring this into my office." Xavier said noting Logan's hostility.
Magneto nodded and Xavier moved back so he could enter the mansion. After they turned the corner the crowd quickly disperse. Beast followed after Xavier and Magneto but Logan and Ororo stayed in the doorway. Ororo walked over to Logan and wrapped her arms around his torso.
"We should be there to hear whatever he has to say." Ororo said.
"I don't like this." Logan grunted.
"Neither do I, but this is what the fates have thrown us. And we will conquer it as always." Ororo said then gave him a quick peck on the cheek.
The weather witch let go of Logan and walked to the other side of the foyer then stopped. She looked at him in a way that said 'are you coming'. And when he walked over to her all she could do was smile and lean into him as they went.
Jean sat on her bed just thinking about what had gone on in the past twenty-four hours. Obviously she would be calling Duncan to have a little chat, but she was kind enough to let him get over what she expectedto bea major hangover first. Someone knocked on the door and Jean looked up.
"Come in." She said.
Scott poked his head through the door and then entered the room.
"Hi." Scott said weakly.
"Hey…did you want to talk?" Jean asked felling the nervousness rolling off himin waves.
"Yeah actually." Scott said walking over and then sitting down on her bed.
"About what?" Jean asked realizing only after she'd spoken how stupid that sounded.
"Last night…when we kissed." Scott said looking anywhere but Jean's eyes.
"Oh…" Was all Jean could think to say.
"Did it…did it mean anything to you?" Scott asked sheepishly.
Jean didn't know what to say. Unbeknownst to everyone else, she'd had a couple drinks last night. So when she grabbed Scott and pulled him into possibly the best lip lock of her life, she wasn't exactly thinking straight.
"Uh…Scott…I…um." Jean stuttered trying to organize all things that were going through her head.
"No forget it, forget I even asked." Scott said getting up and walking towards the door.
"Wait!" Jean said as she jumped up and went over to him.
She put herself in between him and the door.
"I liked it. And if you want to, we could do it again." Jean said spreading her arms over the door to make sure he couldn't get out.
"How about now?" Scott asked grabbing onto her shoulders.
Jean moved her hands onto Scott's arms as their faces inched closer and closer to each other until…
Scott, Jean report to my office immediately.
Scott sighed and put his forehead to Jean's.
"I guess we'll have to finish this later." He said.
Jean nodded and then gave him a quick peck on the cheek before opening her door. They walked down to the professor's office hand and hand but quickly separated once they opened the door. The professor sat in his rightful spot behind his desk, Beast was to is right and Storm to his left. Logan was leaning against the wall and Magneto was sitting in the chair that Scott had been in just a short while ago.
"I hear that there was a party last night." The professor said looking directly at Jean and Scott.
Scott and Jean nodded and for the second time that day sat down in front of the large desk and told the tale of Duncan's party.
