A curious event indeed occurs. Suddenly there begins a plot! A real one, not just the one I've been trying to pass off as a plot.

Jean was woken up to high pitch screaming from the other room. It took her a minute to remember what had happened yesterday and who was in the other room, but when she realized it, she bolted up and ran to the door. As she was opening it, she saw a puff of blue smoke start to fade.

"Jeje, Kurt came in and woke us up!" Kitty said in a whiney voice. This day did not start off as well as she had hoped, but what can you expect when you have 8 mutant children?

Scott finished getting the boys ready after Kurt's little escapade. Unfortunately for the fuzzy child, Scott had given him time out while the other boys got ready. After Piotr finished he grabbed a book and went to the rec room to read, Remy and Logan went back to the cars they had become so fond of, and after a few more minutes, Kurt promised not to go into the girls room again and he and Scott made their way to breakfast.

Hank had already started making up some bowls of cereal when everyone got there. The boys were eating quietly at the table, for which Scott was grateful, when the girls walked in. Jean had obviously had more fun getting the girls ready than Scott had. While all the boys had just gotten random colored shirts thrown on and a pair of shorts, all the girls were in some sort of pretty dress.

Kitty pranced in first wearing a bright pink sundress with spaghetti straps and a lining of frill at the bottom. Most of the boys seemed to ignore the girl, which caused her to glare and harrumph off to get her cereal. Ororo entered next in a simple yellow dress with thick straps and little suns all over it. She kept her head down and scuffed her feet until she reached the table, sitting quietly by Logan, who looked at her curiously.

Jean walked in next carrying one girl and holding the hand of the other. Wanda was in Jean's arm, her head resting on the girl's shoulder. The younger girl had chin-length brown hair that lay stick-straight. She wore a red halter-top dress with a bow tied around her waist in the back, and she was sucking her thumb. Jean gently pulled Wanda's arm so that her thumb was no longer in her mouth and set her down so that she could go sit down.

Rogue looked up at Jean and received a little push telling her it was okay to go to the table. The girl's deep blue dress similar to Ororo's, but with a lower back. Her long hair was braided with her whit-striped bangs framing her face and she was smiling slightly. Sitting down between Kitty and Wanda at the table, she dug into her favorite cereal, ignoring the mischievous look in Remy's eyes that just screamed trouble.

Kitty was going on about what her plans were for the day, something about make-up and cooking, when Scott and Jean heard it. They looked at each other already knowing who was to blame.

"REMY EXPLODED A CARD AT ROOOOOOOOOGUE!" Kitty screamed. Jean ran in to see that no one was hurt, and sighed in relief. Remy was grinning like… well a five year old with a treat. Rogue on the other hand, had a look of anger on her face.

"You are so gross! Why don't you just leave me alone? I don't want you're cooties!" Rogue yelled at Remy, who was sitting diagonally from her seat.

"Aw, come one, chere, you know you want my cooties!" Remy was surprised when the girl slid out of her chair and walked around the table, moving to stand right beside him. Remy had to twist uncomfortably to keep his eye on her, but he was starting to get a little frightened. Rogue reached up and pressed her hand to his face, watching his eyes roll into the back of his head and slump onto Logan who was now growling and trying to push the guy off of him.

"Rogue!" Jean yelled. "That was not appropriate!"

Rogue looked at her with big eyes. "But he used his powers on me. I thought it only fair that I use mine on him. Besides, nobody is going to miss him!" Wanda and Kitty giggled at this, while Jean just scowled.

"Rogue I want you to go to the professors office and tell him what… you…" Jean stumbled over her words when the realization hit her. Just yesterday Rogue had touched Jean and not used her power, and yet today she had used it on Remy. "Scott, can you watch them for a minute? I need to take Rogue to see the Professor."

"Umm, Jean, but…"

"No. This is important." Jean then looked back at the kids at the table. "If any of you give Mr. Scott any trouble I will put you in an upside-down time out, got it?" All the kids nodded, not know how bad it would be, but not wanting to find out anyway. Then Jean picked up Rogue, careful not to make skin to skin contact, and walked quickly to the Professors office.
