Two Hours Earlier
Rogue reported her textbooks missing as Charles and Erik were setting up their chess board. Normally they reserved this hour as child free, but agreed that the text book theft was a valid reason to interrupt.
"Where did you see them last?" Erik asked as Charles called for Logan.
"I left my backpack in the library. Remy and I were going to finish our ethics project together, and I know how Logan feels about us hiding out in my room to work. I went downstairs to get a bottle of water and when I got back, they were gone." Rogue said, adopting an innocent and mournful frown.
" I see. Was anyone else around, that you noticed?" Erik asked, falling for her forlorn expression.
"No, not that I remember." Rogue said, attempting to sound extra sad, she made sure to stiff loudly as if holding back tears.
Remy entered the room before Erik could say anything else. " Hey, someone stole my books! Do you have any idea how embarrassing that is? When my father finds out that someone stole from me and I didn't let them, he will freak out!" Remy yelled. " Wait. Maybe I can let him think that I let someone steal my books, then he'll be alright with it."
"How's your father going to find out?" Erik asked, grasping at the first thought he had considering Remy's lengthy rant.
"I have to tell him of course. You can't expect me to keep things from my father, that would be wrong." Remy said indignantly, while Rogue shook her head at Erik's 'thoughtless' implied suggestion. Erik considered pointing out Remy's intent to lie to his father, before deciding it wasn't worth it.
Logan appeared at this point, and Charles asked him to search for the teens missing textbooks. Logan agreed with his usual grunt before he went out in search of the books. Charles assured the pair that their books would be found, and if it took too long he would be happy to write their teacher a note asking for an extension on their project.
Logan followed the scent from the library. Rogue luckily wore a very notable perfume, and her bag left a trail of the scent that he followed...all the way to the boys' locker room where he found both Remy and Rogue's bags in Scott's locker.
Logan returned upstairs with the bags, intent on locating Scott to demand an explanation. As the elevator doors opened however, he was assaulted by an angered scream upstairs. With a sigh he followed the sound to Rogue's room, where he found the girl still in the doorway, glaring into the room.
Remy arrived at the same time, as did Scott and Bobby. Remy and Logan pushed through the group of girls gathered ahead of them to Rogue's side, where they finally saw the problem. Rogue's room was completely destroyed. Clothes and books were everywhere. Her collection of movies and video games was scattered in the mess, and her mattress had been flipped onto the floor. Remy started to put an arm around her in comfort when a terrible thought occurred to him, and he rushed off to check his own room.
"Alright. Clear the hall, now." Logan demanded. The students all disappeared as Logan grabbed Scott's elbow.
"Did you do this,too?" Logan demanded, pointing into Rogue's room.
"No!" Scott said. "I haven't done anything to them, they keep doing things to themselves and blaming me! I'm innocent."
" Clean this mess up." Logan grumbled. Scott shook his head and started into the bedroom, when Remy's shout came from the boys' dorms. Logan scowled, and sent Scott in that direction instead.
Logan helped Rogue put her bed back in place as she growled at the idea of anyone touching her things. As soon as it was Logan went in search of Charles to talk about this apparent hazing.
"You destroyed Rogue's and our rooms, didn't you?" Scott said as he picked up Remy's clothes.
"No. Why would I do that? I don't know who did it." Remy said.
"Mmhmm, because I should believe you after the bed."
" You copied and pasted Rogue's diary all over the house. Don' try to play innocent here."
"You started it!"
"No! There are lines that you just don't cross! Personal property is that line!"
"You broke your own darn bed!"
"You stole a diary and wrecked my stuff!"
" You murdered my snack cakes!"
"Oh. my. God. That was three freakin months ago! Let it go!"
"No! You murdered my happiness!"
"I bought you an entire case of snack cakes! With actual money, you over-dramatic freak!" Remy said, throwing the last of his underclothes in his drawer. "That's it, I'm done. I'm going to go meet Rogue, finish this up."
Scott fumed as he finished putting the rest of Remy's things away as messily as his OCD would allow. Afterward, he thought of the perfect revenge. Giggling to himself, he gave up on chuckling two pranks ago, he turned on Remy's laptop and set the password "Iamadork". Not satisfied it would be annoying enough, Scott then went through Remy's phone and every other electronic device to do the same, then rushed over to Rogue's room to repeat the process. This would teach his evil troll of a room mate not to mess with him!
As Remy and Rogue passed under the landing in route to the kitchen, they were assaulted with a large pile of melting snow and glitter. Unfortunately for Bobby and Kitty, Charles was passing the other direction and was also splashed with the messy combination.
Logan had just stepped back in the door from checking on his beloved woodpile at the same moment. "That's it! Meeting, now! Stripes,Gumbo go get cleaned up and meet us there."
