Teenage Mutants
"Storm, do you see 'em?" Theresa whispered up to Ororo. They had been playing for around two hours, and the game had since become intense. Tackling, cursing, and screams could be heard echoing from everyone, but that was how the mutants played. The game went like this: one team would hide while the other team would wait with their eyes closed and their backs turned, and then the other team went looking for them. Basically regular hide and seek, except the young mutants allowed hitting and kicking (even though only the girls did that). The only rule was: No Powers. And, of course, Jean broke that rule every chance she got.
Right now it was the boys' turn to find the girls. Scott went to find Jean, Logan to find Ororo, and Remy to find Theresa. Ororo was currently hiding in a tree, up on it's branches deep in the leaves, and Theresa under her in a group of bushes on the ground. Neither of them knew where Jean or the guys were.
"Shhh!" 'Ro answered sharply, squinting so that she could see better between the thick branches. "No. Where'd Jean go to?"
"How the hell am I supposed to know?" Ororo sighed.
"Well, hold on I'ma try and reach her."
Theresa sat and waited quietly while Ororo tried to ask Jean where she was through phsycic speaking.
"Well?" She asked after waiting for about a minute. Ororo quietly slid down the tree trunk and landed softly next to Theresa in the bushes.
"She said that she's in the front of the school. Scott already caught her. But I don't think the guys are around." She said, still keeping an eye out for one of the boys. She turned to her friend. "Wanna go for home?"
"You sure? It's kind of a long way." Theresa's eyes were full of doubt. They had remained hidden for the past twenty minutes, the boys would have surely found them by now...that is, if they were even looking. She was almost sure they were up to something.
"And?"
"And, you're wearing a skirt and flip flops. You could fall...you sure you can make it?" Ororo looked down. Theresa was right; what she was wearing wasn't exactly designed for running. A blue shirt with a white collar, a white mini skirt and blue sandals. She could easily trip over them and fall. She looked back towards Theresa, and her outfit didn't really help either. She had a tight red shirt that read 'Coca Cola' on it and very long, dark jeans that she, too, could easily stumble over. She had taken her shoes off at the start of the game.
"You sure you can make it?" She shot back smiling.
"Maybe if we make a few adjustments." She said, rolling up her pants legs to above her knees. 'Ro removed her sandals and wore them on her hands.
"Ready?" She whispered, crouching down into the same position Olympic runners used when about to begin a race.
"Ready." Theresa answered, following suit.
"Book it!" And like that, they took off out of the bushes to home base.
They both ran lightly, trying their best not to make any sound with their feet. Home base was pretty far away, almost at the front of the mansion, and they had been playing for a while, so it didn't take long at all for their breaths to turn into pants, and their legs and chests to catch fire.
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
"You sure dis is gonna work, Wolvie?" Remy asked as both he and Logan hid behind the two tall trees that were 'home base'. "Why don' we jus' go an' fin' dem?"
"It's too late fer that now, Cajun. Once they figger out we ain't over there, they'll shoot fer home. Trust me." Logan answered, slightly pissed that Gambit still called him by that retarded nickname.
"Well den, where are they?'' He asked impatiently
"Just give it a minute or two."
Just like Logan predicted, about a minute and a half later the two mutants could hear fast footsteps behind them, Logan waited to give the signal to run after them.
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
The two girls almost sighed when they could see 'home' just a few yards away, and quickened their pace once they were close enough. That is, until they saw Remy and Logan emerge from behind the trees and start running for them. Then, they skidded to a halt, almost slipping in the soft grass, and shot off in the direction from which they came.
"What do we do now?" Theresa yelled to Ororo. She glanced behind them.
"Split up!" She yelled back, veering off to the left as Theresa went to the right.
They both ran with as much speed as they could muster, but they both knew that they were heading for a dead end, and that they would surely have to stop eventually. Logan was catching up on her fast, so Ororo decided to try for home again. There, about a yard away, was the very tree she was hiding in earlier. She decided to use it to her advantage. She tried desperately to run faster; Logan was only inches away from tagging her, and ran up on the tree, kicking off of it and landing a back flip over his head, running for home once again.
Theresa looked to her left and saw Ororo heading her way. Oh gosh, she's tryin for home again? She thought to herself. She looked around for something, anything she could use to slow Remy down. Sadly, there was nothing so she decided to take desperate measures. Thinking of only one way to go for 'home base' again, she turned around and ducked into a crouching position, hoping that Remy wouldn't accidentally trip over her. Thankfully he didn't, with his eyes wide, he had no other choice but to jump over her, almost stumbling. And she took off again and attempted to go to 'home base' for a second time.
The two young mutants met each other with huge smiles on their faces, running for their destination. If they got to home safely, that meant the girls would win, despite Jean getting caught. Theresa held out her hand, and Ororo slapped it.
"Whoo! Too easy!" She yelled as their feet carried them. Although, as they came up on the two large trees that marked 'home', their cheers came to an immediate stop and the smiles all but vanished from their faces. There in front of them, a cloud of blue-black smoke could be seen, as Bobby, Kurt, and Scott all guarded 'home', while Gambit and Logan were still gaining.
"Ok, now what?" Theresa asked again, as they somewhat slowed, but still kept running.
"Keep going!" Ororo yelled, closing her eyes, and reopening them to reveal that they were all white. She almost laughed as she sent a huge gust of wind before them, knocking all three of them down, and Theresa's pupils encompassed her entire eyes as she used her powers on Kurt, restraining him of the ground so he couldn't teleport in front of them.
Jean cheered and screamed as they got closer to home, and finally ran over to them as they passed through the trees screaming 'we won!' again and again.
Logan and Remy came to a halt next to the three fallen mutants as they pushed their way up off of the ground. They all shot dark looks to the three girls. Remy narrowed his demonic, red on black eyes and Logan scowled as they began to sing the chorus of We are the champions, holding hands and swaying from side to side.
"We are the champions, we are the champions, No time for losers, cause we are the cha- AHH!" They all screamed together as a few charged playing cards, an ice blast, and a psyoptic eye beam passed right above their heads.
"HEY! What was that for?" Jean screamed.
"YOU CHEATED!" They all yelled.
"Oh yeah right." Theresa said as she walked in between them. "Yall are just mad cause we won." Remy raised his eyebrows as she passed him, smirking as he looked her up and down. When she saw this she gave him a look as if to say: In your dreams! And stuck her tongue out at him. He only grinned.
"Yeah, what's the matter boys?" Ororo said, walking between them in the same manner. " 'Fraid of a little competition?"
"Uh huh, and you know what?" Jean said, bringing up the rear. "Don't be mad at us just because yall are a bunch of LOSERS!" Theresa and Ororo joined in on the last part and they all burst out in laughter. Until the boys moved in closer. Then they all took of running with the guys right behind them.
They came to the pool in the back of the mansion, their legs screaming. Ororo used another gust of wind to make her run faster, leaving Theresa and Jean behind. Theresa didn't even notice that Remy had gained up on her until he grabbed her arm, bringing her to a stop, and throwing her over his shoulder like she was nothing.
Remy chuckled in his incredibly deep voice as he came to the edge of the pool. Theresa kicked and screamed at him to release her, but he didn't even pay attention.
"Storm! Jean!" She screeched. 'Ro, turned at the sound of her name, and Jean did the same. Jean was next to Remy, but Ororo was on the other side of the pool.
"REMY! Let her go!"
"Yeah, stupid! Let me GO!" She said, kicking him as hard as she could. Remy thought about this for a while.
"Chere wants Remy to put her down?" He asked.
"YES! NOW!" She yelled. Remy shrugged.
"Ok." He said, tossing her into the pool without thinking twice. She let out a shriek and then went into the water. Kurt, Bobby, Scott and Remy all burst out in a fit of laughter, while Ororo looked at Remy, her best friend, with her eyes narrowed and her nostrils flared.
"I can't believe you did that!" Storm shouted, a distant roll of thunder could be heard. She didn't even notice Logan was behind her.
"Yeah? Well believe THIS!" Wolverine shouted before shoving her in the pool along with Theresa.
"Your turn, honey!" Scott said in Jean's ear before pushing her in as well.
"What are yall laughin at?" Theresa said, using her powers on Remy, making him jump into the icy water. He emerged, looking around confused.
"What de hell?"
"You too, Logan!" Ororo said, her eyes turning white as she summoned another gust of wind that knocked him into the water.
"Now it's your turn, sweety!" Jean said as she brought her arm up, sending Scott into the air, and dropped him into the water.
Ororo and Theresa laughed and covered their faces as Scott landed with a splash.
"Oh, so Reesey don' like de whadda, huh?" Remy said. Theresa turned to him with a look of disbelief on her face.
"What did you call---" Before she could answer, Remy splashed her, water rushed into her mouth and almost choked.
"Oh hell no!" She yelled before sending water crashing onto Remy, splashing Logan along with him.
"HEY! I didn't splash you!" Logan said, sending another wall of water onto Theresa.
"Don't splash her!" Ororo shouted, using her entire arm to splash Logan back.
"Dang. There gonna be here for a while." Bobby said, looking over at Kurt, who was watching the water war.
"Zat zey are. You in ze mood for cocoa?" He said, smiling.
"Sure. Let's go, before we get wet."
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
"Oooooh, we have to get them back." 'Ro said with her teeth clattering. Her, Jean and Theresa stood in Ororo and Theresa's room, dripping wet, and freezing cold.
"Oh, I think I have an idea to get them back." Theresa said, an evil grin showing on her face. She turned to her two new friends. "One that will get them back for hide 'n' seek, throwing us in the pool, and for that Remy calling me that...name." She answered.
"What, you mean Reesey? I think it's cute! Remy and Reesey..." Jean tried out the names together, "That's sooo perfect!"
"Shut up Jean!" Theresa snapped. Ororo and Jean laughed, and Theresa narrowed her eyes.
That's such a stupid name! But when he says it...
She shook her head to rid her mind of those thoughts. Oh yeah, they would get them back...they would get them good too.
Alright there's another chapter done! Please don't forget to review and Happy New Year everyone!
