" Roberto!" Tabitha Smith screamed, flinching at the sound of her voice Da Costa answered.

"Y-Yes?"

Tabitha walked into the Rec. Room and through herself into an arm chair glaring at the only other occupants Gambit, Sunspot, and Phoenix. She looked Sunspot over for a number of minutes before finally talking.

"I want to see her."

"See who?"

"Copper. You know that girl you went home with two nights ago? I want to see her." Tabitha stated, Jean's face brightened, Remy and Bobby shared the same troubled thoughts.

"uh- I -uh"

"Sure t'ing chere." Gambit answered for him.

"What?!" Jean screamed in sync with Roberto, who was being drug out of the room by Gambit.

" What the heck do you mean yes? There is no Copper!"

"Scott told me dat Bobby tol' him dat dere's a traitor of de men." "Are you series?" Roberto asked floored by the new information. "Oh yeah. And dey goin' to pay to. Dere goin' to be Copper." Remy said smiling grinning ear to ear.

While the women---

"We shouldn't have done this." Siryn said pacing back in forth.

"Will you relax and enjoy the show? They had it coming to them you know it, and I know it. And they're the ones that left us here just because of one bad temper tantram!" Jean cammented throughing various items around the room.

"I knew it was wrong for me to stay I should've gone with them."

"Oh stop complaining Rictor, you did a great job!"


A few hours later----

"It's tight, it's expensive and it's revealing. I like it." Scott said viewing their selection over again.

"Ah'm not wearing that!" Sam yelled throwing the baby blue dress in the corner.

"Come on Sam, it's the only way to get back at Rictor for betraying us!" Roberto boasted

"Ah don't see how makin' a freakin' fool outta muhself is going to help our situation a lick!" Sam shouted crossing his arms and stomping his foot, that caused him to trip over his high heels

"Sam, put the dress on, You'll look great." Iceman added jokingly.

"Shut up Bobby. Please Sam." Scott asked almost on his knees

"No."

"Not even for a Scooby snack?"

"Shut up Bobby. Sam, I've known you a long time, and your like a son to me. but if you don't swallow your pride and get that dress on this instant, I'll give you the fastest sex change in history." Cable stated flashing his eye.

"W--eeell when you put it that way, sir." Sam smiled nervously and started to take off his uniform. "Do ya'll mind?!"

"Sorry." They said in unison all turning in opposite directions. Sam continued to put on the dress and announced when he was done.

"Ah look like an expensive hooker!!" Sam screamed looking at his reflection.

"I t'ink he's goin' to half to shave." Gambit added

"Ah shaved this mornin'! Thank you!" Sam snapped tugging on the edges of his barley existent dress.

"I don't think he meant your face Sammy-boy." Warpath added looking away.

"Well what could he--?" That's when he noticed all eyes in the room were staring south of his body. "Don't ya even suggest it."

"Legs, the legs have got to get shaved sorry Sam." Beast added trying to sound sympathetic.

"Ah gotta go home in two days! What will muh mama say?" Sam pouted unintentionally.

"I'll get the shaving cream."

"I'll get the razor."

"I'll get the band-aids."


"So how do you think their going to pull this one off?" Moonstar asked sitting down into a wooden chair. All the women had dressed up for the occasion, and after minor pouting, the men followed the example.

"Oh, I'm sure they'll think of something." Jean added with a knowing smile.

Ding Dong

"Everybody ready?" Storm asked before opening the door, to show a six foot two twenty year old with a bust that put them all to shame. Standing in a short baby blue dress, with smooth legs and very muscular arms.

"Copper?" Tabitha asked.

"oh-hehehe--That's what the boys call me." Sam said in a high pitch voice. "Ya'll can just call me- uh- Reba."

"Well, Reba, won't you come in?" Jean asked trying to not act to shocked

"Yes, thank you ma'am I think I will" he answered pushing one of the wigs long golden plastic curls from his face.

"BOYS!" Siryn yelled up the staircase.

Up the stair case...

"I won't be able to look him in the eye without laughing all tonight!" Roberto exclamed looking down at his best friend face that was covered in a pound of make-up.

"Look who in the eye?" Rictor asked coming out of his room.

"Oh-" said Scott "No one."

"Come on boys it's show time!" Beast whispered being the first to bound downstairs.

"Well it's about time!" Rouge said and with adding a short smile walked into the dining room were the others were waiting.

"Oh Roberto! Reba is just great no wonder you sleep with her!" Tabatha yelled throwing her arms around her boyfriends neck.

"Oh, honey he was so easy you wouldn't believe." Sam screached giving Bobby a drop dead look.

"I didn't know that there really was a Copper." Ric whispered to 'Star. " She's kind of cute."

"If you only knew."

After some confussion of sitting arangements they all sat down to dinner.

"So, uh Copper" Scott started after a long silence " Where do you come from?"

"Uh, well, from all over. Heh, My dad use to work in the coa-- propane business, they were in wide demand in the eighty's." They die tonight. Sam thought never taking his eyes off Sunspot.

"What do ya do sugah?"

"I'm uh, was, am! I uh, I work for McDonalds."

"Really?"

"Yeah that's how he found me, my mom use to-uh- use to--" But before he had time to answer the wall exploded behind them. Sinister stepped over the debris and stood in front of them with a smart smirk on his face.

"Oh for the love of--- what else could go wrong?" Rictor asked looking through the hole that he'd been blasted through.

"Summers--" Sinister began.

"You do not know how bad your timing is! Can't you stay away for one freaking moment?! I mean what right do you have to bust in here making demands! I don't think you'd like it if we attacked you every other day would you? No! And these walls cost money and in case you haven't heard we're running a little low on it in recent days!" Scott dusted himself off and started towards the scientist.

"I must have the perfect child to destroy Apocalypse!"

"Shut up I'm not through talking to you---Don't you run off you selfish, coincided man---I'm talking to you!" Scott screamed as Sinister ran off into the woods, Scott followed.

"Scott honey I'm so proud of you! It almost makes me sorry that I tricked you!" Jean screamed happily to her retreating husband.

"Tricked..?" Proudstar asked flinging Drake off of him.

"You into buying me--uh--this dress." Quick recovery be Jean.

"Get your hands offa of me mister Richter!" Sam shouted from the hall in his normal voice as Rictor was flung back into the dinning room. "That'll teach ya."

"uh-oh."

"That's it! Ah'm tellin' them! Ah'm sick of paradin' around like an idiot!"

"Not that much different except your wearing a dress--"

"Great now 'Star gets a sense of humor--"

"Were going to die if he tells them--"

"Dog pile?"

"Dog pile." they said in unison jumping towards Sam, or Reba, or Copper, or whatever...

"Ah don't think so!" Sam said taking off his high heels and started to defend himself by hitting everybody he could reach with elbows, knees, and high heels. The first one to experience his knee was Remy.

"Oh- the pain-- Rouge were never going to be able to have kids---oh the pain!" he cried from the fetal position on the floor.

"You'll see that this woman is one bad dude!" Sam screamed as he continued his assault.

"Stop this!" Elizabeth screamed with no one hearing here.

"Popcorn?" Tabitha asked holding up a bag of popcorn to her and sat down on the couch Jean had recently brought in. The men were fighting with each other, one piled on top of another fighting with no reason.

"Who's touching me--?"

"HeY! HaNdS OfF private property--!"

"I'm being raped by a man!"

"Someone touched my breasts!"

"Bobby for heaven's sake your a man!"

"Oh- yeah."

"Oww! Beast watch dem elbows dey hittin' a little to close to --eh, home!"

"Stop pulling my hair!

"Sorry 'Star."

"Shoudln't we stop them?" Siryn asked "They'll ruin the house."

"And then they'll have to fix it." Jean said smugly.

"Where is Summers?"

"AH! Sinister!" Storm removed herself from the back of the chair and started to him , hand extended and a bright smile on her face.

"There you are!" Scott's voice broke through the screaming and shrills of laughter. " I told you I wasn't finished talking to you! "

"But I am quite done with listening." Sinister said advancing towards the door. Scott let him go without much complaining. Dani, who had been absent throughout the entire Sinister is back, came into the room and was instrantly tripped by the pile of grown men that were slpping each other around. Much to the ladies dismay the pictures that Moonstar had been holding scattered among the group of guys.

"What the hel-?" Juliol cursed in spanish picking up a picture of him in a rather tight T-shirt and small angel wings on his back, with wand in hand he stood on one foot with a ridiculous grin on his face.

"When were these takin'?"

"Why's Gambit wearing pigtails in his hair, and why is he wering that skirt?!"

"Why do Ah have spikes in my hair--?"

"I do not kiss men!"

"Jean I think it's time for a quick retreat yes? " Storm asked edging towards the hole that Sinister left in the wall.

"Um, I think that would keep us from getting killed yeah, lets run for it."
