Hey-o! TheTeleporter here! I'm so sorry for the long delay of chapters, but everything is so complicated. In trying my hardest to do better. For now, here's the chappie!

The trip to the castle was a rather quiet one. Every question asked by Rogue or Kitty was answered by a

grunt from Logan or a short, chipper sentence from Scott. Every question asked went like this until Kitty

actually thought of a good question. "So, this whole trip had been fun and all, but can you drop us off at

the nearest burger joint? I'm feeling kinda hungry." Logan and Scott stopped their horses, and looked at

each other in confusion. "Burger...Joint?" Scott looked at Kitty in confusion. "What's a burger joint?" Logan

grunted. "Probably what the common folk call a horse stable nowadays." Logan glanced at Rogue with a

hint of a smile, possibly to let her know that it was his way of telling a joke. Scott, on the contrary, started

laughing really hard. Soon enough he settled down and looked off in the horizon, albeit still chuckling.

After a while of silence, night began to fall. Logan and Scott slowed down, and took out four blankets from

a bug satchel tied to the horse. Scott glanced at the two girls while handing the blankets to them. "The

King said for us to bring some sheets for you two in case night had befallen. I advise for you two to get

some rest, for we are waking at sunrise." Scott started to walk with his horse, when Rogue spoke. "And

what about you two? Where will you sleep?" Scott looked at her. "We will keep watch. The king said that

you two are keys to a new future. Now, get some rest." Scott walked away, and brought his horse with

him. Rogue, looked down. "I wonder what that means" She muttered. A deep, ominous voice interrupted

her thoughts. "Don't worry about it, Rogue. He doesn't know either." Rogue jumped and readied her

hands. What she saw was a rust coloured helmet and a cape flowing behind the figure. She tried to

remember who this person was, but her mind was blank. "Who are you?" She shouted at the figure. "My

name means nothing at this time. What is important that you join me in my cause, to better life for the

special ones in this land, and for you to go back home." This caught Rogue's attention. The opportunity to

go home? How did she know that it is a trap? "What's my end of the bargain?" She was ready to jump at

the figure when a gust of wind blew her down. "You will know in due time, young one. Think about my

offer, and welcome to Genosha. Enjoy your stay." The figure left as quickly as it came, and soon enough

he was gone. "Weird. I could have sworn that it was someone I knew." She trailed off and looked to where

Kitty lay. She was sound asleep, and it seemed that the other two were nowhere to be found either.

"Guess I'd better get some sleep then." She closed her eyes. "I wonder what will come tomorrow." Her

voice trailed off as she fell into a comfortable darkness.

Somewhere dark...

Scott and Logan stood side by side, looking around as if looking for someone. "Where do you think he is,

Logan? He's late." Scott waited for Logan to speak. Logan only grunted. "The damned elf better get here.

If he's late there'll be hell to pay." Logan punched a tree in anger. "And you know the king's orders. We

have to stay with the girls." Logan sighed angrily. A new voice interrupted their conversation. "Why do you

speak so badly against my Kurtzan?" A young brunette in a red dress appeared next to a blue furred man

with a spaded tail swishing behind them, along with long midnight blue hair that flowed along his

shoulders. He donned a stylish red and black armor on his chest and stomach, with chain mail spread

around his arms and neck. He wore black armor on his legs, and a black cloak surrounded his whole body.

He had three fingers and possibly three toes, but the most unnerving aspect of his were the piercing

golden eyes that seemed to glow. If you looked closely you can see that there are no pupils in those eyes.

Scott smiled and walked up to the duo. "Ah, the great Kurtzan Wagner and his lovely wife, Wanda. Lovely

to see you two again." He was about to kiss her hand when Kurtzan growled in a threatening manner.

Scott quickly backed off seeing this. Logan, However, was not one for formalities. "Listen, elf, did you get

what Chuck asked for or not?" Logan and Kurtzan stared at each other for a minute. "Yes. I got ze

memories potion right here. Did you bring me my payment?" Kurtzan's tail extended so that he could

receive his pay. "Now would be a good time not to argue, Herr Logan." Logan groaned as he handed a

sack of gold over to his ally. Kurtzan grinned and stepped back. "Danke, Herr Logan, Herr Scott. I vill do

business vith you two sometime, ja?" He wrapped his tail around Wanda and they disappeared in a smoke

of brimstone. Logan and Scott started to walk away, silent as can be, when Logan stopped Scott in his

tracks. "Listen, Scott" he sniffed the air "there's someone or someone's following us." Scott was taken

aback. "Following us? Who?" He was interrupted by Logan's hand. "Smells like Lone Wolf, and Toad." He

glanced at the corner of his eye, and his eyes widened. "Scott! Look out!" He pushed Scott out of the way,

and grabbed the log that was headed his way. Scott took off his bandage that was on his face and

prepared for battle. Logan growled as a man with long, yellow hair and brown coloured armor went in to

battle with long, bony claws ready to strike. "What are you doing here, Creed?" Logan growled as he and

Creed stared each other in the eyes. Scott pointed to Toad. "And why is this thing here with you? I thought

you worked alone!" Toad laughed as he shot bullets of acid at Scott, to which the latter dodged. "Hey now,

teamwork's an option if you have money to pay. Now, give us that potion!" Scott blasted optic beams out

of his eyes at Toad, while Logan dodged the brutal assaults his opponent threw at him. "Never in your lives

will we give you this potion, you slimy asshole!" Logan screamed. Toad faked a hurt look. "Aw, well. I

guess we tried the nice way." He smiled creepily. "Now I guess we can play dirty!" He launched his tongue

and attempted to retrieve the potion, when out of nowhere an arrow landed next to his tongue. He

screamed, and everybody stopped what they were doing at looked where Toad was pointed. Logan and

Scott smiled when they saw the assailant. Toad looked in fear while Creed glared. Logan simply waved.

"Hey Jean, care to give us a hand?"
