Chapter 6

"You know man, I don't think it was such a good idea," whispered a blue boy with German accent. The boy next to him whispered back:

"Then you shouldn't have said so in the first place. Now c'mon! Todd is waiting outside."

Kurt sighed and followed Evan. They met nobody on their way down to the basement, what was not a surprise. Who, except for Scott maybe, would go down for a Danger Room Session at two a.m.? Soon they found themselves in front of locked metal doors. Right next to them was what they were looking for. A small cabinet, filled with different expensive gizmos among which was...

"I found it!" said Evan as he pulled out small transmitter and a navigation system connected to it.

"OK, now let's get out of here!" Kurt grabbed Evan and ported them outside the institute. The Toad was waiting for them, his back against the wall.

"Finally, yo. You got it?"

"Right here," they handed the device to the boy. "Don't break it."

"Chill. I got it under control, yo."

With that Todd hopped away, leaving two X-Men member wondering, if they will get detention for life for 'borrowing' such expensive equipment (and most likely not returning it) or for giving it to the enemy.

A silence of the Brotherhood boarding house was soon disturbed by Pietro calling out his lover's name. Lance, satisfied with the result, rolled on his side, gently carresing Pietro's cheek while he kissed him.

"You don't want to try again? I'm sure they haven't heard us in Mexico..."

"Very funny, Lance. But if you insist..." speedster pulled himself up, straddling his boyfriend and pulling him into breath-taking kiss.

The door slammed downstairs, causing them to jump up at least six feet (Todd would be proud) and run like crazy in search for their clothes. It ended up with Pietro running out of the room, to take care of whoever was invading their 'private time'. The said person was the Toad himself.

"What-are-you-doing-here?"

Todd looked at him strangely. "I live here, remember, yo?"

"Oh, right."

With that Pietro went upstairs, swearing at the boy in every language known to him. Todd, satisfied with the result, quietly stepped outside, placing a small device he got from Kurt in Lance's jeep.

"Hah! That will teach them not to mess with Todd the Toad!"

------------------------------------------------------------------

"I must admit, this was an interesting night..."

"Don't you have the smartest boyfriend alive?"

"Yeah, Pietro, just keep it up and I might have to look for another one."

Pietro laughed and stood up, loving the feeling of wind rushing through his hair. They were speeding down the road in Lance's jeep, straight from the midnight picnic. First it was just talking and laughing and goofing off. Then it got... more serious. Speed demon wondered if he will ever get the grass stains out of his favorite jeans. Not that he didn't want to keep them as a souvenir. Both of them were oblivious of the black van following them from the moment they left the boarding house.

------------------------------------------------------------------

"Too bad we couldn't get any closer," said Kurt while turning the wheel.

"But at least we got to know where they were going, yo. Besides we don't want them discovering us, do we? I want to actually live after this night is over."

"Yeah, man, so do we. Hey, Kurt, they're turning right..."

------------------------------------------------------------------

"Where are we? Lance?"

The rock tumbler pulled over by the large tree, his eyes focused on the rear mirror.

"We're being followed," he announced.

"You're being paranoid."

"Look for yourself. That's fuzzy-ass behind the wheel and Daniels next to him. There is someone else, but I can't make out the face."

"Like I'm gonna fall for that..."

Pietro turned the mirror his way, while Lance started driving.

"Oh shit."

"My sentiments exactly."

"So what do we do? It's-not-like-we-are-going-to-tell-them-anythingrightIhaveareputationtouphold..."

Lance never heard Pietro speak so fast before, but could imagine what he was saying.

"Don't worry. I got a plan."

------------------------------------------------------------------

"Are you sure, yo?" asked Todd when Kurt took another turn.

"Ja. They didn't notice us yet and I don't think they vill, so ve can close in on them a bit."

"Knock yourself out, yo."

Three boys followed Lance and Pietro to the parking lot of a bustling club.
