Road Trip with Cyclops and Jean Grey p7
Chapter 7
"Here we are, guys! Las Vegas, Nevada, home of the loosest slots!" Scott said cheerfully as he and the X-Gang entered the Casino Farm building
"Now listen clear; I don't want any more trouble like last time; so please stay close. Colossus, you and Logan keep an eye on Scott and Kurt. Make sure they stay out of trouble." Jean instructed
"Yes ma'am." Colossus replied before him and Logan entered the slot machine area
"Hoo baby! I'm rackin' up $45 mil by the minute!" Scott howled, his hands bulging with dollar bills
"Uh Scott, what's that you're drinking? It better not be…" Kurt asked before…
"RRRAOOOWWWRRR!" a horrific growl echoed through the hall
"What the hell was that?" Logan asked, his claws out
"Jean." Colossus whispered in shock
"What? What is it about Jean that I- oh no." Logan instantly remembered the gas station incident
"I think Scott and Kurt are in trouble." Colossus commented
"Save the observations for later. If we don't get in there, there's gonna be one hell of a money withdrawal!" Logan hollered as he and Colossus barged in
"GRRAWR!" Werewolf Jean roared savagely as she cornered Scott
"Jean. Look at me, look at me, dammit! It's me Scott." Scott screamed
"Out of the way! Runaway limo!" a security guard screamed
"YEEEHAAAA!" Remy screamed as he drove the car like a maniac
"LOOK OUT!" Rogue shrieked as they headed for the window and Werewolf Jean
"Oh dear." Tabitha whimpered, covering her ears
"CRASH! WHAM! BLAM!"
"Ohhh…my back." Scott whimpered
"Ugh…what the hell happened last night?" Jean moaned, dazed
"Oh my god! Remy, you maniac! You ran over Jean!" Rogue snapped
"Somethin' tells me that wasn't Jean. No, that thing was hairy, with claws, fangs and the look of a savage." Remy noted
"What the hell happened? We heard the crash, and… whoa, you ok, Scott?" Logan asked
"Help me and Jean up. And hey…get the money also." Scott instructed
"You got it, partner." Logan commented, carefully hoisting the two up while Colossus gathered up all the team's winnings.
"Geez, you think what happened there's gonna wind up on the news? I mean, damn, that'd be one hell of a top story on CNN." Bobby said
"Ah forget it. Let's get to the car and get some shut-ass." Logan grumbled
"Logan!" Jean hissed
"What?" Logan replied
"Watch your language. Not in front of younger readers." Jean hissed
"Ok, ok, geez. This is not what I call a normal vacation." Logan heaved, smoking his cigar
"To be fair, whenever we do something, normality goes out the window and is lost in a tidal wave of chaos, insanity, mishaps, explosions and food." Scott noted
"Sheesh, since when did you all of a sudden watch 48 Hours Evidence?" Logan joked
"Haven't we used that joke enough? That's what they call an overly-long gag." Kurt piped up
"Please don't tell me he's been on TV Tropes again. Especially after that Batman incident." Logan commented
"Zip it, get in the car and lights out. Colossus, you drive." Jean ordered
"Yes ma'am." Colossus replied and put the gear into drive
