(Lol. Looks like some people are on the wrong side of the door.)

"May I say something Miss Frost?" Bella piped up softly but her voice held no fear, only conplete focus on the mission at hand. "I'v been experimenting with how much I can control my hair once its been cut. I can't move it but I can feel when its touched for about half a day afterwards. If I gave you some strands to leave near you so that you know if your being followed. I'l be able to tell and tell you Miss Frost; I know its not much but it might make a few seconds diffrence." There she'd said it, now she would either be acnowledged as part of this team or told she was a stupid child.

Stunned, Kira stood outside of the door for a moment, not sure what to think. All of the outside sounds had stopped. She was growing warier by the moment about going outside, but, immediately, she deemed that a different exit would be wise. Surely a place this big had to have at least two exits because she would prefer not having to go upstairs to encounter the man that kidnapped her again.

Walking away from the door, Kira went back into spy mode. She scampered down each and every hallway, but continued to not find what she was looking for. Doors on the bottom floor were opened and closely periodically, and, sighing, Kira finally gave up and sat back against the wall opposite of the danger room. This appeared to be the only way out of this level without going up top, this portal.

Irritated, Kira decided she would sit down, rest, and, if the door hadn't opened for a while, she would make a run for it upstairs.

Abby stood frozen to the spot, her eyes wide and unable look away from the feral looking blonde. "What is going on?" she managed to stumble the words out. Hoping Rogue had answers.

Before Rogue had a chance to answer the huge muscular man let out a raucous laugh. It was guttural and sent a chill up Abby's spine. "Well well well" the words seemed to spit out at them in malicious amusement. "Look what we have here" his gruff voice echoed around the room. Now back to it's original metallic state.

"How'n the hell did you morons get in here?" Rogue asked, her brow furrowing in anger. One hand on the other, ready to unglove.

"It's called teleportation girly. We're here on business" he snarled back, his eyes gleaming at the thought of some wanton destruction.

"Well take yer business elsewhere furry. It's not wanted" Rogue snapped back, pulling one glove off slowly.

"Sleep" the green haired woman spoke up gently, raising an arm towards the trio before having it snatched by the brute.

"Not yet Vertigo." he leered at her menacingly, tightening his grip in an effort to nullify her power.

"Sinister said" she retorted, yanking away her arm.

"The hell with Sinister" he replied, licking his lips and drawing his tongue along his sharp canine teeth. "I want a little fun first" he turned his attention from Rogue to Abby. "You first blondie!" he roared and within a heartbeat had Abby by the throat and pinned her up against the wall hard. Her skull cracking against the metal wall. He quickly turned to his companions "Get 'em" He swung his head back round and levelled with Abby's terrified eyes. "Scream for me girly" he moved his face in closer to hers and a sadistic grin crossed his lips as he inhaled deeply. "You smell familiar blondie"

Abby's eyes were struck with panic at his words. She tried to struggle under his grip. But he was too strong and she wasn't strong enough.

Charlie aimed several small rocks at the man holding Abby, catching him off guard. The older man let go of the girl. "You okay Abby? Rogue?" Charlie hollared to them. He and his brother dodged both Vertigo and Scrambler.


Vertigo aimed for Charlie, raising her hand to render him unconcious.

Suddenly, out of nowhere, and without her gloves, Rogue quickly touched Vertigo, and sent the older girl's power right back at her. Vertigo staggered, getting quite woozy. She then turned to go and help Abby, as Sabretooth smashed Charlie's rocks and turned back to Abby, growling.

Meanwhile, Erchirion and Charlie attempted to hold off Scrambler, attempting to prevent him from touching them, seeing as he already temporarily wrecked Erchirion's nervous system.

Sabretooth howled in fury and when Rogue came up to him, ungloved hand at the ready, he dodged and pushed her back hard watching with a grin as she was knocked back several feet. He slowly turned his face back to Abby, who was on the floor on all fours. Her long blonde hair tousled over her face.
"Now, where were we frail?" he asked, not really waiting on a reply. The grin still plastered to his face.

Abby didn't even hear him. Her mind was a tornado of thoughts. Why here? Why now? She muttered the words "No...please God no"

Sabretooth leant over and grabbed a handful of Abby's hair, lifting her up by it he leered in at her. "You look just like yer mother" he began to taunt her "Just before I tore her guts out" he cackled, pleased with himself.

"no...no....no" Abby whispered the words over and over as he spoke. His hot breath washing over her, only adding to her nausea.

He threw his head back, letting out a loud and disturbing laugh.
"Yeah!" he roared, "Don't you recognise me yet?"

Abby weakly managed to move her head upwards, her eyes rolling back.
A crooked smirk began to emergeas her eyes focused on his. "Of course I do" she breathed heavily pausing for a moment "Daddy"

As the word passed her lips, she felt her energy growing. He didn't know what her power was. He had obviously presumed it was like his. He couldn't have been more wrong. She began to slowly get on her feet, never taking her eyes from his. Keeping the twisted smirk on her face the whole time. "Thank you" she whispered to him.

He threw her a sidelong look, "Fer what?" he was confused.

"For giving me the strength to do this" and she quickly stood upright. Tall and proud, she sent in a hard swing and punched him hard. Knocking him clean off his feet. "For what you did to my mother" she seethed, her eyes blazing with power and rage, "I will kill you!"

Kira’s eyes had wondering from the floor to the ceiling and around the room for about 20 to 30 minutes now. She was sitting with one leg fully stretched on the floor and the other bent with her arm laying a top. Randomly, Kira had continued to flash quick glances to her right side, hoping not to hear the man trampling down the hall to come, get her, and tie her back up again.

This never happened, and, getting tired of just sitting, Kira soon picked herself up and walked back over to the main entrance. Nope, she thought, He’s still there. Disappointed, Kira walked back down the hallway, knowing she would be miles away by know of the man had decided to scout out a different floor of the building. She stepped close to the door, touched it with her fingers and tried to make a mark in it with fire. Nothing changed.

Sighing, Kira thought that she would try to preoccupy the abounding time with continuing to figure out how to manipulate her powers. Therefore, she stood outside of the door. Facing the door (because she already determined she couldn’t do anything to it), Kira put one step back and tried to remember how she shot out the sudden blast of fire again. Closing her eyes to concentrate, Kira placed her hands together and, after a few seconds of focusing, a blast of fire shot out. It slammed against the door, letting out a huge bang. Not used to the force, Kira shot back from it and hit the back wall. Shaking her head, she reopened her eyes to a loud and annoying ring in both ears. She hit herself in the head a few times to try to get the sound out, but, when she began to get wet from a small shower, Kira concluded that she wasn’t going to escape anytime soon.

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

Gambit was walking throughout the school. He had checked about half of the rooms. No one was in sight. However, when the sudden noise from the fire alarm and the spray of showers came down upon him, he knew immediately that Chere had woken up and was probably trying to burn down the school.

"While I appreciate your concern, Bella," Emma said. "I assure I will be fine. If I need to contact you, I shall contact you telepathically." She glanced aside at the control panels. It read that there would be another hour before they arrived at Muir Island. She turned to Ororo, Hank, and Logan and asked, "What shall we do?"

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

Magneto landed on the island with his three iron orbs already splitting into smaller spheres so now there were a score of them floating around him. A group of humans with blank faces approached him with various weapons, a group that was quickly struck down by Magneto's metal balls.

"Impressive, Lensherr," a voice came from the distance.

He turned his head to see Harpoon and Riptide strode towards him. "Sinister should know better than to send children to do a man's job," he sniped.

They simply grinned before Harpoon took out one of his spear and charged it while Riptide began spinning like a top. Anticipating these attacks, he summoned two iron spheres. One to intercept the spear and one to deflect the calcium spike that came shooting from Riptide. The remaining balls began to vibrate energetically as they launched themselves at the Marauders.

Logan chomped on his unlit cigar and turned to Emma, "Oh I dunno, play I Spy?" he looked at Storm, "Can't this bird go any faster? We're losing time fast" he began to look agitated. Not knowing what was going on at Muir troubled him greatly.

"Well, Forge did refit it with some sort of booster. But he said it wasn't complete" Storm replied, concerned. "I'm not sure we should use it. It could be dangerous and with the young ones aboard. I'm unsure if it's worth the risk"

Hank looked on at the conversation and pondered the situation.
"Perhaps it is worth the risk, if it means we can get there quicker. Emma, what do you say?" he turned to look at the blonde telepath.

Rogue smiled at Abby, still looking woozy from being knocked over, "Nicely Done. You've found your power." A mixed groan told her that the siblings had gotten rid of Scrambler and Vertigo. Rogue then turned her attention back to Sabretooth, smirking to Abby, "Shall we?"

Abby barely heard Rogue's words. Her thoughts were focussed on this brute of a man. Her father. The thought of it sickened her to her stomach. Her mother never went into any real detail about him. Only that it was brief and violent. Tears began to well up in her eyes as her memories of her mother flooded back to her. Wiping them away roughly, she turned to Rogue.
"No. He's mine. I have to do this" her voice began to choke.

She slowly walked over towards his prone body. Watching as he began to muster himself. "Why?" she asked him, her fists clenching tightly.
"Why did you do that to her? Why? Tell me why?!" she screamed as she stood at his side.

He rolled over and managed to get up, propping himself on one knee. His head down. He began to laugh coldly. "Because, I can. Because I enjoy it. I was passing through and thought I'd pay Gen' a visit to reminisce about old times."

"No!" Abby yelled at him, "You don't dare say her name." she went to kick him hard in the side. But he grabbed her leg and slammed her hard. Pinning her down. He slowly dragged one of his long fingernails down her cheek.
"Tell yer Uncle, I said hi"

Emma simply nodded and said, "Go ahead." She looked up to her pupils and commanded, "Put your seat belts on. We're going for quite a ride."

John nodded and obeyed, wishing dearly he could smoke now.

Harpoon's spear was sent flying towards Magneto who with a single thought stopped the projectile in its path. However distracted by the spear, two spikes were fired at his direction. One of them ran into Magneto's spheres but the other found its mark in his arm. His teeth gnashing in pain, he ignored the spike as he sent the spear at Riptide who only barely managed to dodge it. Magneto's thoughts shifted to a nearby car which was threw itself in the air at the two adversaries. Riptide once more managed to escape from harm but his partner was not as fortunate. One thousand pounds of metal and rubber pinned Harpoon's leg to a wall, breaking it immediately. Two metal spheres then elongated, forming spikes which forced themselves through the mutant's right arm and into the wall, effectively disabling it. Satisfied with the result, Magneto turned his eye to the other mutant who was growing an assortment of bone like weapons from his body at an alarmingly rate.

Gambit had turned off the alarm, hoping that it was soon enough so the fire department wasn't notified. He, then, walked down the stairs to come upon a drenched Chere.

Kira had tried to seal the sprinkler shut, but she accidentally blew the top off, causing a shower of water to soak her head to toe. Glaring at Gambit, Kira positioned her feet to be able to attack or defend at a moment's notice.

"Chere, I am not here to keep you here."

"Right. Because the harnesses were just for decoration."

Gambit sighed, looking down at the girl, "When I found you, I knew how you feel. The police want you for different crimes, and you were then running from some of them..."

"So you are here to turn me in?" Kira interrupted, with a face exclaiming I knew it.

"No." Gambit immediately corrected, "I here to tell you I know, and Gambit will give you a choice, Chere. You stay here or leave. But..." Gambit continued, blocking Kira from leaving right then, "you need to stay tonight. The police found your car, and, 'cause you weren't in it, they think you got away."

Kira stood silently, trying to comprehend Gambit's logic. "How should I know that I can trust that you didn't tell them and they are coming here right now?"

"Cause Gambit was like you, Chere."

Not fully convinced, but getting there, Kira looking up in Gambit's gaze for a moment, to read his emotions. "If I am going to stay, I am going to need just one thing.."

"Yes, Cherie?"

Kira's eyes closed as if she was in pain. "Don't call me that. I have a name... it's Kira. Ok? Just call me Kira. Not Share.. or whatever."

"Ok..... Kira." Gambit spoke right before his head turned towards the door, "Why you by the Danger Room anyway?"

"Danger Room?" Kira questioned, "What is the Danger Room?"

"It is were the X-Men practice in computer generated simulations."

"I was just waiting for you to leave an open gap," Kira replied, realizing she was thinking of more questions each minute.

Erchirion, Charlie and Rogue watched as Sabretooth pushed down Abby. "Should we help her?" Rogue shrugged,"To be quite honest with you. I Don't know."
