Lily giggled as she shook on Stoney's shoulder, but her smile lessened a bit as she saw that her happy dust didn't seem to have worked its magic on Karma. Her team leader was still all extra grumpy and ordery and it only seemed to have improved when a little boy came in. Her eyes watched him curiously and giggled as he referred to her. "Cause I wanted to be on his shoulder so ha!" she answered instead of Stoney, and stuck her tongue out at the boy playfully.
She watched as her happy dust took effect on Shimmer and Jenny and giggled, but watched slightly confused at all the older kids who seemed kind of cranky. Maybe I shoulda gotted them ALL with my happy dust. Oopsy, she thought as she watched the wolfy two leave, and then the blonde girl, but it didn't really bother her now that she couldn't do anything. Lily was still willing to help make cookies. All she needed was to be told what to do and she'd do it.

Chesty just shook his head at it all. This school was great and so much nicer than when he was training to kill people up in Massachusetts but some days he saw there was just too much drama. Today was actually not so bad and he smiled more at the relative calm of it all. Sure there was just a break up and the poor pink thing got nipped, and then Karma sorta lost it all for no reason and the little ones are doing their teasing over boys and girls, but it beats the hell out of getting my butt kicked in the Danger Room he thought.
Nodding in greeting to Chopper he gave him a pound and raised his eyebrow as the his little pal spoke of his Christmas presents. Stoney showed him respect and was attentive to his words, nodding and smiling. He finished putting all the chocolate chips into his batter and stirring them through and placed the bowl down before Jenny and Shimmer. Picking Lilly up off his shoulder he tucked the tiny fairy girl into the crook of his elbow as he found a baking sheet and a stick of butter.
He put Lilly down standing her in a chair and set the baking sheet before her. Making a small motion with his hand to show her how to butter the sheet he left her to it and went to get two more baking sheets for her to butter and Jenny and Shimmer to fill. He knew there was no need for yelling, especially in the kitchen, especially with the tiniest of the mutants. Karma must be stretched to her limit he thought watching as one by one all the older kids left the room.

Chopper wrinkled his nose at the blond girl and stuck his tongue out back at her. "I am not! You're just a girl with cooties! You're gross! Ppphh kids" he said and scowled. "And the rest of you are weird. Not you Stoney, and you too Karma," Chopper added grinning at them. "And you too, only cause I love Frosting. See you! Wouldn't wanna be you cause your a girl!" he said to Sky and scrambled up on the abandoned stool so he could stir the frosting. "Glad their all gone. Now we can do some real baking and more cookies for us!" Chopper said and began stirring the frosting to keep it nice and fluffy.
"ANYWAYS, Stoney Santa got me a new fishing rod and more games for the XBOX! Wanna play after the cookies are done?" he asked excitedly bouncing in his seat. "Now when its spring we can go fishing and I won't have to keep using your fishing rod! Isn't that awesome?" Chopper added extremely excited for the spring now. "Hey where is everyone anyways? Besides the screaming from the big kids what happened to everyone else? I mean isn't Kitty always with Peter and where's Mr. Kurt? I gotta show him my new fishing rod," he asked babbling a bit. Chopper was glad to be back, though he loved his home as well. Here it was fun and a little scary sometimes, but still fun. Plus Stoney was here and he was Chopper's bestest friend. That didn't mean he didn't miss everyone else either though.

It was in a way a good thing that shimmer had been under the spell of lilys happy dust as when Riker and Lurai left in an angry state with her she was in no way at that moment affected by their leaving, or in any case by the fact that she had just been dumped after a day of not seeing her boyfriend. They had only been officially together for about a week so it wouldn’t be too hard to get over she suspected, at least she had the knowledge that he had wanted to go out with her in the first place. Not now though, this change he was going through made him a new person and she for one was not the most impressed with his change of personality which seemed to come over night. She was not in anyway happy with the way he referred to her or called her a pup to his sister nor was she most happy with Decays reaction to her. Some bitch like her shouldn’t even be allowed around the little children. But oh well, she was too happy in the moment to even let the fact that she was now alone from her peers get her down. She was somehow far too happy and giggly to even let the information process in her head.
Giggling sweetly at Jenny she nodded along with the comment about Roger being a cute rabbit and not a mouldy one. “He’s adorable, I remember the little toy I had when I was your age. He’s back at home with my mammy, she’ll be looking after her. I loved that little panda toy, she was my best friend. I’m sure Roger would have loved to meet her.” She said with a grin at her little friend, pretty much her best friend in this school now that Riker practically hated her, he did of course just dump her in front of everyone and slate her deeper than was probably necessary. Still, there was a bright side, she’d gotten through more emotional trauma than this before and it was no where near as bad being dumped than being disowned by her only living parent. The smile on her face only grew as her un noticed unhappy thoughts where drowned out by the cute little boy and his chattering. ‘His name is Chopper? How interesting, such a cool name. I wonder if he’ll be talkative to me, I kinda think it’s cute he thought I was a cat. Wee kids are awesome!’
“Hey, Chopper? Am I an icky girl? I thought I was a cat person.” She said with a small laugh and a shake of her pink hair through one hand as she watched the giant friendly guy leave the mix for her and Jenny to shape. Perhaps cookies weren’t so bad to make, it made the wee kiddies happy and that just made her even more happy. “Ye know, im kinda glad I got up this morning, this is kinda fun after all!” She cheered with a giggle as she watched the giant guy. For being a giant he was very nice, and very very quiet. “You know what, I think next time I ever go back to Scotland I may just try and sneak my panda over here, he is the most important thing in the world to me ye know, my daddy gave her to me when I was a wee lassie, just before my ninth birthday I got her. I miss her a lot, she makes me think of my daddy but I think mammy wouldn’t let me, I played with her all the time after the accident, it was like I was talking to him all over again. That wee thing knows everything about me, I told her everything and I know its silly but I used to imagine she was the one giving me a hug instead of the other way around. I was a silly wee thing.” She giggled, not letting the cheery voice leave even as she spoke on the excruciatingly touchy subject about her past. Being this happy made her feel free to just talk without getting sad.

An hour or two later as the vast amount of cookies where placed upon the table ready with their icing …
Karma stopped with a grin as she observes the fantastic work of her little baking squad. It was no mistake that Stoney had done more than half of the baking while Karma helped the little ones and Shimmer with the icing and getting certain extra parts for them. They sat atop the table in the kitchen ready for the time when the group would return from their mission, she hoped today would bring their return, she so worried about them. Although her grin showed her pleasant mood and she cheered her group with a small round of applause. “Wow, im impressed everyone, we’re finished …” She stopped her speaking as she got the message from the headmistress about their return, today was indeed the day. They made no messing about apparently.
‘Oh thank heavens, they’ll be home soon. I wonder how they’re going to take everything that has just happened to them. It’s not every day they are transported to another dimension in rescue of fellow students …’ She paused in thought, a sigh passing through her lips slowly as she shook her head. ‘ Well … not every day anyway.’ The small mental giggle made her smile a little as she looked to everyone with a growing smile. “Well finished just in time apparently. That’s everyone on their way back just now, miss Frost said that they will be here within the next few minutes at the earliest. And for their return she’s ordered we have a PIZZA PARTY! So I’ll go and phone up a few nearby delivery ones, there will be a big bill for this.” She chuckled, looking to Stoney with a sympathetic grin and gave him a look indicating that she would be as quick as possible to not leave him alone with the little ones and Shimmer too long.
“Now you lot remember to behave while im away just now, no mischief. Or no cookies.” She said, her mood improved now thanks to the thought of the returning students Although she was in a way pleased now that the school would be filed with the remaining students once more, her before worry for their safety and well being was torturous, that and being the only bodied teacher left in the school was a daunting aspect, she felt a surge of responsibility to be the carer for these kids while they where in her charge, much like her little Alpha students.
Going out of the door she listened through the empty corridors and heard the unmistakable sound of chattering and teenage fun from the direction of the recreation room. That must have meant that Colossus was back from gathering the new student; Emma has mentioned that Rogue was still away so that left no other alternative. She hoped. But in her unconditionally happy mood now which seemed to have taken a while to simply kick in she walked out into the hall toward the telephone sitting on a small wooden table. She laughed to herself at the thought of having to simply order out a pizza, she hoped it was not an mutant hater that had to deliver it, there had been enough bother without one of them being forced to visit.
Dialing one of the numbers she knew by memory from television adverts and other such places she listened as the dial tone sounded before being picked up and answered in the cheery telephone voice of a female probably not too happy with her job but making do all the same. After all, what girl would be excited to work in a pizza delivery service as a telephone girl.
“Hello, pizza delivery 914, the pizza delivery service guaranteed to deliver your order in under thirty minutes or your money back. how may I be of service.”
“Yes, Hello I’d like to make an order … a large one please. There is a large party of teenagers awaiting a long earned meal, ready?”
“Yes ma'am, what can we get you today? Oh, you can order a side of fries with each pizza for an extra $0.99 and extra cheese is only $0.50 per pizza today. Plus it's buy two pizzas and get the third free? So what'll you have?.” [/i]
“Thank you, and ok let me see.” She closed her eyes and raised a hand in the air counting off the order that would have to satiate all the students and teachers. This bill would be absolutely enormous and she wondered if it would end up being free for taking so long to make. “Right, I’ll start with three extra cheese, five meat lover pizzas, one ham and pineapple, two just pepperoni, three vegetarian pizzas hold the cheese on one of them, one chicken Caesar, one buffalo chicken, one white-no two white pizzas one with broccoli and one with spinach, oh and two just plain cheese."
“ … uh … i-is that a-all m-miss? …”
“Yes I think so, how much will that cost?”
“ um … j-just let me call my supervisor …[/i]” Karma had to chuckle at the poor girl on the phone, she’d probably never have to make an order that big for the remainder of her career unless the school called again. “Um … miss, my supervisor has confirmed the price at … $124.43. And we are afraid to say that the order will have to be longer than the half our limit due to the 20 pizzas needed. Is that alright miss? Our apologies but the order is bigger than we at this moment can cope with at one time. And my supervisor says that if your order takes longer than one hour at least then you can have it for half price. I hope that's alright miss, we-“
“Don’t you worry, that will be just fine. You wont need to worry, we’re a big group and there will be time. Sure you’ll be able to cope with so many to deliver? Do you have a big enough vehicle to cope?”
“Yes ma'am, thank you for the concern. Now, can I please have the address and I can send this through to the kitchens to start ASAP. Thank you.”
“Great, we’re Xavier’s Institute for Higher learning. Do you know where that is?”
“O-oh … uh of course miss, um … t-tha-ank you for … um … enjoy your meal …” [/i]
With that the girl hung up the phone, leaving a slightly chuckling Karma at the notion that just mentioning the ‘mutant school’ made people worried. There was too much bad press these days, the x-men and the avengers, the fantastic four and others where good guys, they trained to fight off the people who caused mischief with the aid of their gifts. It was those like the Brotherhood or other such misery makers that left a somehow lasting impression. This was why there where still constant wars fought in small towns from mutant haters. There was seemingly still no peace in the world for them. Such a pity.

“KARMA! I hear them! They’re home!” Torri screamed happily as she heard the sound of a plane landing nearby. She giggled at her high pitched voice and her face brightened if possible more at the prospect of seeing her team mates again. She was so happy that they where home, not much about the pizza particularly as she knew the cookies where ready and everyone would need to eat them as well seen as she and the littler ones and even the big guy worked hard to get them done. The pizzas would take a while anyway so she knew there would be time to eat before then. She smiled down at Lily, Jenny and Chopper as she quietly chanted ‘they’re home’ over and over again as her smile took over her face. She never smiled a lot at all but she liked the feeling, it made her feel calm.
“Karma Karma Karma can we take the cookies to them now? Pleeeeeaase!! We worked hard all of us and they’re gonna be hungry but the pizzas wont be here for a wee bitty and they’re gonna need to wait so can we can we can we please?!” She begged while jumping a little on the balls of her feet, she knew she would be heard from the phone in the hall outside the kitchen but she wanted to go soon and see her friends again that it was debatable whether the happy dust was affecting her anymore or if she was just simply so happy that she was grinning of her own accord. “We can all take them in and they can have them can’t they?” Her begging and pleading face looked only as a wide eyed grin as she was too happy not to. Strange.
“Oh … I have to go see them! You all coming?!” She asked, mainly to the littler kids but also at Stoney if he wanted to, she didn’t know him at all and didn’t know if he was sociable or not or if he was just being nice helping today. “I’ll be back soon, I promise. I pinkie promise!” She yelled before dashing out the door toward the rec room, her face a picture of happiness and girlish glee.
