((A humorous future plotline, where it's shown what the four horsemen, X-Men, etc etc do on their time off and don't fight. Actually more like a tv sitcom, but what they hay, everyone lives in the same apartment complex, and wackiness ensues))
"Open up I want my can opener back!" Ellen yelled pounding on one of her neighbors doors, "I'll knock down this door, and don't think I won't!"

Jasper heard shouting as he was on his way to his apartment. Apparently, someone had stolen Ellen's can opener. Oh well, now was as a good a time as any. "Hey Ellen," he said, approaching her. "Can I borrow two cups of flour? I would go to the store, but I don't need all that much..." His smile seemed like it was hiding something, but then it always did.

"Oooh stupid Horsemen," Ellen growled before turning to Jasper, "Sorry Jas, I don't think I have any flour, because guess what I burrowed it out!" she said saying the last part rather loudly at to the door.

"Oh that's too bad," he said with a half-smile. "Guess one of the girls is gonna plan another 'shopping party!'" he said, his voice rising high on the last two words in mock of a girl's voice. "Hey Midnight!" he yelled, running across a lawn to lean it at Midnight's back balcony. "Could I borrow two cups of flour? I would go to the store, but I don't need that much.
"Fat chance, Jones," Midnight snapped back, yet managed to hide a grin. "I know what you are up to."
"Me? Up to something? What are you talking about?" Jasper's smile was the picture of innocence, making him look all the more guilty because it wasn't natural.
"Yeah. You haven't been to the store in weeks, but everyone has been lending you stuff all through that. You are just living off of us! So forget it, buy your own food for once. You have enough money. I guess it is just that a ex-hitchhiker can't stop mooching. Hey Ellen!" Midnight said, looking beyond her balcony while watering her plants. "Don't knock it down! Horsemen are sticklers for making you pay for the doors around here."

((i can change this if you want me too.))
X-T opened up the door to her apartment in furry. It was next to the one Ellen was banging upon
"Can't a girl go to th' bathroom in peace?" X-T said, a hint of frustration in her voice. She shook her head with rage and handed Jasper a bag of flower.
"Take as much as ya need, I don' need it 'till christmas," X-T said closing the door to her apartment behind her. She then laughed at the angered Ellen.
"Took yer can opener again, eh? Ya know, ya could always use mine," X-T said leaning up against the door, "I've got like, three in there,"

"So that's where they went," Iris said peeking out her own door, "Remind me to get them back next building meeting okay?"
"That's not the point, they're always burrowing my stuff and keeping it, it's like Homer Simpson and Flanders," Ellen said before pulling a screwdriver out of her back pocket, "so who wants to get their stuff back?"

A crooked grin crossed Jasper's face. "Thanks, X-T," he said happily.
"Oh no, now you only encouraged him," Midnight said, rolling her eyes. "And X-T, everyone knows you have three on each fist. But they can't go calling you whenever they got cans to be opened. And everything is sold in a can now, including bread."

Raphael walked up the stairs to the apartment, he had been out all night, and was just now getting in. The business always kept strange hours. He was wearing an all black suite with the jacket and vest opened and his tie untied. He had a slouch in his step and he carried a heavy bag. His hair was a mess, hanging down in his face. He stopped in the landing as he saw everyone standing in the hall. Raphael opened his mouth like he was about to say something, but instead just turned and continued up the next flight of stairs to his apartment.
Raphael opened the door, dropping his heavy bag with a thud just inside. He walked over to the counter dropping his keys on it and opened the fridge. He pulled out some sandwhich supplies and made himself a peanut butter and jelly sandwhich. He also pulled out a glass bottle of orange cream soda as he placed the rest of the stuff back in the fridge. Raphael sat on the couch eating as he watched the news before he went to sleep.

"He's a strange one," Iris said as Raphael passed and shrugged, "I'm afraid that the stoves are out in the building Jasper, thank our Landlord for it."

X-T let out a grunt.
"Yeah, ain't he great. Always there when I," X-T said walking over to the stairwell, "NEED ELECTRICITY," X-T smiled, then walked back.
"Hey, I got steak on th' grill on th' balcony if anyone wants one," X-T said with a smile opening up her apartment door, "Got soda and beer ta top it all off too,"

Raphael had finished his sandwich and was drinking his soda when his phone rang. He kicked himself for not turning it off already. He answered. "Yeah...Sure, no problem...I will be there in an hour." Raphael hung up the phone. He walked into his bedroom and stripped down, hopping into the shower quickly, only five minutes. When he got out he quickly dressed himself in another suit that looked similar but was not identical to the suit he was just wearing, this one was a six button double breasted jacket. He left the jacket open, but closed the vest and tied his tie. He grabbed an over coat as the forcast predicted rain later tonight and Raphael knew it would be late before he got back.

Jasper scowled, but tucked the bag of flour under his arm anyway. "Hey, there is another complex next door. Let's run a line over and watch TV in X-T's house."

"Yeah problem is I think that's illegal and could cause major fire hazards," Ellen said setting to work on taking out the screw from the door.
Eliza suddenly came out od nowhere, "Did someone say food?" she asked, her brown eyes looking around.

Raphael slowly descended the staircase, the heavy bag in his hand once more. Again, he paused as he saw them all standing about, and was about to say something until he saw Eliza. He then sort of bowed his head and tried to make for the stairs before she saw him.

"Raphael," Iris said quietly and caught him at the stairs, thankfully Eliza hadn't seen him, she thought it was a game how many times in a day could Raphael get tackled, "It's going to get cold and rain tonight, you need a scarf," she said wrapping the light but warm garment of clothing around Raphael's neck, "and let me dirt and waterproff your jacket," she added, sounding strangely motherly and touched Raphael's jacked and reinforced it with her powers, "Be careful okay, X-T will kill you if you get yourself killed," Iris said softly before retreating back ot her apartment, cheeks a little flushed

Raphael smiled warmly, "and what is it exactly that you think I and going out to do?" He had given up his life of evil. That was not to say he didn't still do those things he had once done, it was just that he did not do them on a regular basis. He was an engineer, and he had just been called out to evaluate a failure, apparently NASA had lost another rocket and shuttle. The parts had been shipped the the facility in Ohio, and Raphael was asked to go over the peices and determine the failure, for insurance and future engineering reasons. Raphael had just gotten back in from a flight that had taken him home from california when he got the next call. It was alright though, Raphael had still not been able to sleep at night, even though he had given up the life. He looked at the scarf and smiled agian. Iris and x-t took care of him, and he didn't mind so much, having friends to look out for him, to make sure he was eating and sleeping and not just playing video games and working.

X-T smiled and waved for them to come in.
"Sure do. T-bone steak. Make yerselves comfy," X-T said with a smile going to the fridge.

Iris felt her pocket buzz and took her beeper out of her pocket and looked at it, "Eliza, looks like we're on shift again," she sighed. Both Eliza and Iris had gone to college together and gotten their doctrines, Eliza was a neurologist, and Iris Pediatric Doctor that crossed her medicine knowledge with magic. She had found early on that children took to magical healing better then adults and worked from there.
"Darn it, scrapped of ah free meal again," Eliza sighed, "See y'all," she waved walking over to Iris, "hurry up Ih hate travelin with yah.
"Deep breath, and let's go," Iris shrugged as a portal appeared and the two of them disappeared.
