Jubilee, Everett and Jonothan all stood slouched against the wall at the door to the bathroom. Tap . . tap . . .tap . . .

"Jubilee, that's annoying!"

"Oh puh-lease Ev, we've been standing here for 25 minutes and she's still not done!"

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

Paige sat on a stool in the bathroom, her face covered with a greenish white cream and her hair entangled in a towel, her toenails drying on the counter.

She was at peace.

Everett braced himself outside, finally taking a stand. "Paige Gurthie get your big rear end out here now! There's other individuals in the house who use the bathroom ya know!"

"Just one minute . . . cranky, aren't we?"

Everett growled.

Paige slowly opened the door as everyone peered at her and then at the entrance.

"IT'S MINE!" Jubilee screamed as Everett, Skin, Jonothan and she all pushed and shoved to get in the doorway.

"Get outta my way!" Everett shoved.

"Over my dead body!"

"If need be, YES!"

"Grrr!" Jubilee growled while pushing the door closed with her feet, her body propped up on the counter.

Jonothan shoved her foot, putting her rear into the sink.

"Eeeew, gross!"

Skin laughed.

"Me first, you under melanin colored bag of tallow!"

"Que?!" Skin decked Everett.

"Ow! Oh, that's it!" Ev plowed Skin and himself through the shower curtain and into the bathtub.

Jubilee and Jono still battled it out by the door.

Nice PJ's, Jube!

"You LIKE Winnie the Pooh, Chamber?!" She said, grinding her teeth, still trying to hold the door.

"Used to!" He replied, still pushing against the door.

"Get off of me man!" Skin yelled.

"I can't! Your fingers wrapped around my neck!"

Jonothan stood back and pondered the entry for a second.

Jubilee, let me in or I'll huff, I'll puff, and I'll blow the door down!

"Not by the hair of your chinny chin chin!"

Har har . . . I warned you! Jonothan let loose with his power and Jubilee screamed as a cloud of orange and yellow energy blew the door off it's hinges.

Jubilee flew over into the shower, hitting the nozzle on her descent. Cold water sprayed down, soaking her and the two boys.

They all turned to look at the glowing man standing there.

I'm next!

"Ahhhhhh maaaaaan!"

Seventeen days left . . .
