In the school of the X-Men. Morph gathers the team for an emergency meeting. The X-men got increasingly worried because MORPH is calling the meeting.
“What's wrong?” Erik asks.
“I have gathered you all to discuss a matter of utmost importance!” Morph said.
“We found Sinister?” Jean asks.
“Sabertooth?” Logan asks.
“The Juggernaut?” Rogue asks.
“This is way more important!” Morph said. Then he hands out an invitation. “We need to discuss what the hell we're going to wear for the Avengers Halloween party!”
“Wait what?” Erik asks.
“Did I stutter?” Morph asks.
“This is why you gather us all?” Erik asks with a raised eyebrow.
“We are a team and I say as a team we discuss this matter. Now I have several suggestions.” Morph said.
“Oh god this is happening.” Scott said.
“I failed to see why I should participate in this.” Erik said.
“SIT YOUR MAGNETIC ASS DOWN!” Morph said.
“Oh no Dark Morph.” Jubilee said.
“Star wars. Teenage Mutants ninja turtles. Power rangers. Scooby Doo. The care bears.” Morph said.
“The power rangers?” Logan asks.
“Dibs on the yellow one!” Jubilee said.
“Black one is mine!” Roberto said.
“We are not doing the power rangers.” Scott said.
“I'm sorry you object to being a teen with attitude and falling orders of a bald man to beat up Dredneto?” Morph asks.
“Wait what?” Erik asks.
“Morph has point….” Hank said.
“....Will I get to be the leader?” Scott asks.
“Now hold on. I want to see what the plan for Star Wars is.” Forge said.
“What the hell is Star wars?” Erik asks.
“.....50 demerits for Magneto!” Morph said.
“Oh! I have an idea! Let's surprise them by dressing up as the avengers!” Jubilee said.
“Ooooo. I'm loving the brainstorming!” Morph grins.
“I'm terribly afraid of the suggestions.” Erik said.
“You get to be Thor.” Morph said.
“Oh.” Erik said.
“No no that makes sense. Wears a helmet and a cape. You hit people with metal and have just enough of an ego to pull it off.” Remy smirks.
“I will smite thee with thy hammer.” Erik glares.
“See you're already doing a great job.” Morph said.
“Dibs on Dagger Roberto can be Cloak!” Jubilee said.
“See team work makes the dream work.” Morph smiles.
“I'll be Iron man.” Forge said.
“Ah wouldn't mind being Spider-Woman.” Rogue said.
“I like Captain Marvel.” Storm said.
“Guess I'll be Captain America.” Scott said.
“Hey Jeannie why won't you be Scarlet Witch.” Logan said.
“Why?” Jean asks.
“Because you're powerful, have daddy issues and hate Erik.” Morph said.
“Hey!” Erik said.
“I am power. I am the Marvel witch!” Jean replied.
“Who is Logan going to be?” Scott asks.
“Pass.” Logan said.
“Okay, Nightcrawler is Spiderman. Remy is Hawkeye. Beast is definitely Tigra.” Morph said.
“Wait…who are you going to be?” Jubilee asks.
“Everyone else.” Morph said.
“Oh that makes sense.” Roberto said.
“We have several weeks to do this! Come on gang. Let's do this!” Morph then shifts into Captain America. “Avengers Assemble!”
“....Wait are the avengers going as the X-Men?” Erik asks.
“I have no idea. But wouldn't it be funny if it was.” Morph grins.
*********
Erik started to work on his Thor costume. Because despite Morph's threats he actually did want to make a GOOD one. Especially to prove something to Remy! Getting a red cape is the easy part. The real fun begins with the creation of his hammer and helmet.
“Wow sugah didn't think you actually care that much.” Rogue smirks.
“I'm not going to let Morph down. Any more than I already have!” Erik said.
“Honestly Ah'm just glad they didn't give me Ms.Marvel.” Rogue sighs.
“......Would you think less of me if I said I think you would have looked amazing in it.” Erik said.
“Maybe put you at the same level as Gambit.” Rogue retorts back.
“I will NEVER be as horny as Gambit.” Erik said.
“Nobody is.” Rogue said.
“So Spider-Woman. Do you need….webs of some kind?” Erik asks.
“Why? Ya gonna make me a web shooter with your hammer?’ Rogue smirks.
“Hilarious.” Erik rolls his eyes.
“Forge is already making me something.” Rogue said.
“Of course he is.” Erik said.
“Ah'm just worried about you.” Rogue said.
“Because I might run into my daughter?” Erik asks.
“Yes.” Rogue said.
“I….called her actually. Told her so she wouldn't be shock.” Erik said.
“Do you think Pietro will be there?” Rogue asks.
“If he goes….maybe he'll be someone else.” Erik shrugs.
“Do you think anyone is going to be dressed as you?” Rogue asks.
“Of course not.” Erik said.
“The great thing about Halloween. People always surprise ya sugah.” Rogue smiles.
****************
When the team arrived at the party. Erik just wanted to get this done and over with. Morph was honestly just excited to show off their awesome shape-shifting skills.
“Well well. Look who actually assembled.” Stark smirks.
“Thanks for inviting us!” Morph grins.
“Man you even managed to get Magneto to participate. Now THAT'S dedication.” Stark laughs.
“Magneto? There is no Magneto here! I am the mighty Thor!” Erik said.
“Better tell Clintneto that.” Tony laughs.
“What?” Erik asks.
Erik then looks over his shoulder and sees the avenger know as Hawkeye is…dressed up as him. Even more stranger there is a small child dressed in his red armor.
“There are children present?” Erik asks with a raised eyebrow.
“Well look at that sugh.” Rogue smirks.
The child in question is Rachel Carpenter of course what none of the X-Men were aware of was that she is the daughter of the woman Rogue is pretending to be. Of course granted the X-Men don't really care that much.
“I am power!” Clint said.
“I am Magneto!” Rachel adds.
“GIVE US YOUR CANDY!” Clint and Rachel say is unison.
“Oh that is adorable.” Erik said.
“Must you bring children into this?” Pietro rolled his eyes.
Clint is wearing a wig to grant him his long hair for the look. Pietro, who is dressed as Northstar, just asks why he put so much effort into this.
Clint scoffs at him.”Silence boy. Or Magneto will ground you for 5 years.”
Pietro rolls his eyes at him.”Ugh.”
Erik smirks at them.both.”Pietro you heard what I said.
“Oh god you actually showed up.” Pietro said.
“Indeed. The mighty Thor will guard this party with his trusty hammer Mjölnir.” Erik said.
“Are you going to let people lift yer hammer?” Rogue asks.
“If they be worthy.” Erik smirks.
Then music started playing and Morph grinned because they know that song. Then they turn to Erik.
“I'm aware of the skeleton song MORPH.” Erik rolls his eyes.
“Just checking.” Morph glares at him.
Spooky, scary skeletons
Send shivers down your spine
Shrieking skulls will shock your soul
Seal your doom tonight
Spooky, scary skeletons
Speak with such a screech
You'll shake and shudder in surprise
When you hear these zombies shriek
We're sorry skeletons, you're so misunderstood
You only want to socialize, but I don't think we should
'Cause spooky, scary skeletons
Shout startling, shrilly screams
They'll sneak from their sarcophagus
And just won't leave you be
Spirits supernatural are shy what's all the fuss?
But bags of bones seem so unsafe, it's semi-serious
Spooky, scary skeletons
Are silly all the same
They'll smile and scrabble slowly by
And drive you so insane
Sticks and stones will break your bones
They seldom let you snooze
Spooky, scary skeletons
Will wake you with a boo!
Erik noticed that Remy was trying to impress with his makeshift bow. Erik rolls his eyes and goes to get some punch.
“Gosh sugah. Why are you by the punch bowl by yourself?”
Erik turns his head and sees a woman who unfortunately is NOT Rogue. But rather dressed up as her.
“Thor was thirsty.” Erik shrugs.
“Even the god of Thunder needs something to drink.”
“So do X-Men.” Erik smirks. Then he hands her a cup of punch.
“The god of Thunder also a gentleman.” She said.
“Ah but what kind of god would I be if I did not offer a young maiden like yourself a beverage.” Erik said. “So ROGUE.”
“Names Sersi.” She chuckles.
“Hmmm Sersi. You're new I take it?” Erik asks.
“Worried I might actually be able to absorb your life-force for real?” Sersi asks.
“You think you can absorb the power of Thor?” Erik asks.
“Won't know if I don't try.” Sersi smirks.
“Careful there. I might become curious if that immediately makes you worthy of lifting Mjölnir.” Erik chuckles.
“I know that I Hercules is most definitely worthy.”
Erik turns to see Thor. The real one dressed as Hercules. “Go ahead brother.” Erik sets his helmet onto the floor.
Thor tries to pick it up but Erik uses his powers to make it stay in its place.
“Oh dear. Guess you are not worthy.” Erik smirks.
“Hawkeye would like a turn.” Remy said.
“Taking your shot.” Erik jokes.
Remy tries to pick it up but to no avail. Then it was Sersi's turn. However to Erik's surprise she couldn't pick it up. Then he sees the real Rogue with a small smirk on her face.
“Gosh. Guess you didn't absorb enough of him.” Rogue said.
“Perhaps the Spider-Woman would like a turn.” Erik is amused by this.
Rogue smirks then she grabs the handle and soon with great ease she is able to lift it. “Well well. Looks like Ah'm the Superior Spider.”
“You're the spider that is worthy.” Erik adds.
*************
When the X-Men returned home from the party Erik and Rogue were alone. Rogue was starting to take off her mask.
“Did you absorb Jean's telekinesis?” Erik asks.
“Just a little bit.” Rogue admits.
“Attempting to draw me into your web?” Erik smirks.
“I'm curious if I can catch a god. Ah say I did a pretty good job.” Rogue retorts. “You were mighty chumy with Rogue earlier.
“I must confess. She is my favorite X-Man” Erik winks.
“Well Magneto just happened to be mine. Of course granted ah prefers the real thing.” Rogue kisses him gently.
“Oh no question. The original is always the best.” Erik smiles.
“Did you like her because she was dressed up as me?” Rogue asks.
“She has great taste. I can't help myself. I do appreciate a nice southern woman. “ Erik grins.
Rogue chuckles then wraps her arms around him. “I like my men with capes.”
Erik laughs at that comment. “I think I'm falling in love with you.” He said as if he wasn't already.
“Ooooo sounds rather nice.” Rogue grins.
Erik kisses her this time. “A very good thing indeed.”
