The Final Chapter

Oh sigh and woe.  It's over.  Alas.  Well, for us it's over.  For you, it's over in about five minutes to a half an hour, depending on how fast a reader you are.  Well, I suppose we're now on to bigger and better things!  The toughest part, however, is thinking up a brand new idea AGAIN!  ONWARD HO!!

Oh…woe again…someone reported 'Red and Silver' as a copied story and got it kicked off Fanfiction.net…sniffle…

Bobby excitedly scrolled up to the top and began reading.  After a moment, he shifted uncomfortably in his chair.

"Is this…a documentary?" he wondered out loud to himself.  "I never knew…Jean and Pietro…"

Though he wanted desperately wanted to run away screaming, he couldn't help but pursue his curiosity and continue on.  Of course, he was quite appalled when he came to learn of his OWN part in the story as well as his tragic past that was completed when Kurt entered his life.

"This is getting way too weird." Bobby decided.  "It can't be a documentary because not only am I not in love with Kurt but all that stuff never happened to me!"

He could have walked away right then.  But he didn't.  He kept reading.

"Planet Torgo…" Bobby uttered to himself a he spun around in his swively chair and continued reading.  "Interesting…a brotherhood with one of the Acolytes?  Owls?  Hogwarts?"

He pulled himself in closer to the computer.  "Wait…I'm in Ravenclaw?" he said out loud, rubbing his chin.  "I guess THAT'S not so bad…even though I kinda disappeared…I haven't said anything for a while…though, that could possibly be a good thing.  Do I really WANT to be in this fanfiction?"

Of course…Bobby could have walked away then too.  But by now, it was an addiction and he had to continue reading.  Much like you are reading right now.  Read, my pet.  Read.

"Power Rangers!" exclaimed Bobby, throwing his hands up in the air.  "I didn't think it could get any worse!  I watched that when I was seven!"

Upon completion of the story, Bobby found himself somewhat disappointed that it had ended so abruptly with Kurt being cured of his mutant appearance.  "It can't possibly be over now!" he declared, reaching his hands out for the keyboard.

"Good time to do what…?" Bobby wondered to himself.  "What would the extremely attractive and wonderful Robert Drake do?  Let's have him go on an adventure!  A crazy pirate adventure!  Where I'm…I mean…HE'S the hero…"

The extremely attractive and wonderful Robert Drake decided that this was a good time to go on a long adventure that would include a boatload of pirates.  He, of course, was by far the best of them all and was the captain and

"Bobby, what are you doing here?" came a voice behind him.

"NOTHING!!" Bobby yelled immediately, spinning around to see Rogue standing in the doorway wearing a 'Deutschland war Mittelmäßig' shirt.  "What are YOU doing here?  I thought you were visiting with Kurt."

"We got back." Rogue answered.  "But Kurt didn't feel like riding the bus anymore so he teleported ahead of me.  Is he here yet?"

"Um…not that I know of." Bobby replied nervously when he noticed that Rogue was approaching him and the computer.

"What are you doing?" she asked, trying to look past him.

"Just…reading something…" Bobby answered innocently.

"Looks like you were writing something." Rogue said, crossing her arms.

"Well…I was ADDING to it!" Bobby confessed.  "But really, I found it here!  I didn't write it!"

"Can I see it?"

"Um…well…I guess so…I can't guarantee that you're going to like it.  In fact, I can guarantee that you WON'T like it."

"Get out of my way." Rogue said with an exasperated sigh as she pushed Bobby out of the way.  "The extremely attractive and wonderful Robert Drake?" she read.

"That's the part I wrote!" Bobby said, sounding kind of embarrassed and reached over Rogue and scrolled up a little bit.

"I never would have guessed." Rogue answered, turning back to the screen.

"I promise I didn't write all this part…" Bobby stuttered as Rogue began reading again.

"I'm an evil overlord?!" Rogue gasped but kept reading because I swear, this story is a DRUG that is EVIL!  "And I have a TAIL?!"

"I told you that you wouldn't like it…" Bobby reminded her.

"Well, I'm gonna go and tell someone about this!" Rogue declared, standing up and going to leave to the room.

"Well, you're in it more!" Bobby said, searching some more for Rogue's OTHER part in the story.

"How?!" Rogue demanded.  "I blew up!  In case you missed that part!"

"For some reason, you're alive again." Bobby said with a shrug.

"I don't want to read it." Rogue said.

"All right…" said Bobby.  "I mean, you probably wouldn't want to read about you and one of the Acolytes having a fling…"

"One of the Acolytes?" Rogue said, stopping and turning around.  "Which one?  Please tell me it's NOT Sabretooth."

"It's not." Bobby assured her.  "It's um…that other one…I don't remember his name…"

"What color hair does he have?" asked Rogue.

"I don't know!" Bobby said.  "It didn't say!  But…oh, you were hit with a flaming log!"

"Oh no!" sighed Rogue.  "A love fling between me and Pyro?"

"No…it wasn't him." Bobby said.  "I know that much.  He's the tall one."

"Colossus?" Rogue said, sounding annoyed and disappointed.

"Wait…is that the metal coated one?" Bobby asked.

"Yeah." Rogue said, rolling her eyes.

"It's not that one." Said Bobby, thinking.  "The one with the…oh…um… he was speaking French…"

"Oh that one." Said Rogue, walking back over to the computer.  "I think maybe I should just at least LOOK at it…since, after all, it IS me in the story and I should just see it anyway since there's no harm in just looking after all…"

"All right." Said Bobby with a shrug.

Rogue sat down and reached for a box of tissues that was sitting by the computer.  "This is really sad!" she said.  "This part in the italics!  It's so depressing!  Poor Remy!"

"Poor YOU, you're the one who died." Said Bobby, confused.

"But he STABBED himself because of me!" said Rogue.  "Bobby, should I talk to him or something?  I feel so bad!"

"Um…sure…" said Bobby awkwardly.

Peeking in the window was Remy and St. John.

"You were right!" said St. John as the two pulled away from the window and jumping down to the ground.  "She took a hint!  From my part, I might add.  'The part with italics!'  You owe me."

"Yeah, yeah." Said Remy.  "The usual?"

"Yeah!" said St. John, bouncing up and down.  "I want it to flick open and make sure it's silver this time!  And if you get another one of those cheap plastic ones then so help me!"

"Hey guys!" called Kitty and Piotr from the X-Mobile.  "Are we going on that road trip or standing around here all day?!"

"Coming!" called Remy and St. John as they jumped into the car and the three of them sped off into the sunset.

Meanwhile, back in the room with the computer, Scott and Jean came walking in.

"Hey!" yelled Scott, pointing dramatically at Bobby and Rogue as they turned around.  "That is the Professor's private computer!"

"It's hooked up to Cerebro!" said Jean.  "If something had happened to it, there's no telling what the Professor would do!"

"We were just looking!" Bobby tried to explain.

"Just get out you two!" said Scott.  "If we catch you in here in again then we're going to tell the Professor!"  Rogue and Bobby scurried away, not wanting to get in trouble with the Professor.

"Nice job, Scott." Said Jean.

"Thanks." Said Scott.

"What do you suppose they were doing?" Jean wondered, looking in the vague direction of the computer.

"I refuse to look!" said Scott defiantly.

"You're right." Said Jean.  "I'll just shut the computer down." She walked over to the computer and dragged the mouse over to the shut down button when suddenly, she looked up.  "The Professor is coming!"

As soon as she said that, Professor Xavier and Beast came tromping through the door.  Well…I guess Beast came tromping through the door and Professor Xavier just kind of WHEELED in a sloppy fashion.

"I can't believe you forgot to pack sandwiches!" Professor Xavier sighed but then he looked up to see Scott and Jean.

"What are you two doing here?!" Beast gasped.  "You didn't…read the computer…did you?!"

"Of course not, Professor!" said Jean.

"You know the punishment for looking at my personal things…Scott, Jean." Said Professor Xavier.  "I'm very ashamed of you two."

"Professor, you know we're telling the truth." Said Scott.

The Professor paused and shook his head with disbelief.  "And YOU know that you can't lie to me." He sighed.  "I'm afraid I'm going to have to punish you both.  Please leave me be."

"We'll give you your punishments later." Said Beast as he comforted Professor Xavier.

"Professor…" started Scott.

"Please, Scott." Said Professor Xavier, putting his hand up.  Jean and Scott looked at each other sadly and then left the room.  Professor Xavier looked up as they closed the door behind him.  "That was close…"

"Did you see how close they came to reading it?" Beast said as he quickly closed out of the file.  "What if they actually had?"

"But they didn't." Professor Xavier said.  "I read their thoughts.  Neither of them even knew about the fanfiction."

"I don't know what we would have done if any of them had read it." Beast said with a heavy sigh.  "We have to delete it."

"All my writing…" said Professor Xavier sadly.

"It was beautiful but…if any of them read it, I'm afraid it would be disastrous." Beast confessed.

"Very well." Said Professor Xavier.  Beast dragged the fanfiction over to the recycling bin and emptied it.

"Well, that's that." Said Beast.

"Yeah." Agreed Professor Xavier.

The two of them mulled there in silence for a few moments.

"How about that road trip?" Beast said suddenly.  "Still up for it?"

"AM I?!" Professor Xavier said as they both took their hats off and threw them up into the air and the screen froze.  Then, unexpectedly enough, a black circle engulfed them.

You're gonna make it after all!
