Holamis amigos.

i don't own.

Blinded:

It was a 24 hours since they had been rescued and Lance was sitting by the lake with Kitty. She was explaining that she, Rogue and Jean had been down in the library doing some last minute homework (Kitty swears Rogue was the one who forgot) and Jean had suddenly been worried. She had gone to Scott's room and found it empty. When checking everywhere else they had found his room empty as well.

They had then heard a car leaving the school grounds and when they got there Scott's glasses were crushed and on the drive. They had then spent a week searching before finding the compound.

Lance explained that he had been out clearing his head when he had seen them kidnapping Scott and tried to call for help. He told her everything that had happened.

She smiled and told him Jean and the professor had received his call. Kitty said Jean had suddenly broken into a run when they heard the car and that's why she didn't pass it off as you guys going out or something.

The professor had also heard it and the staff had been alerted. They had apparently all been horrified when they realised they were to late because the message had been cut off.

It had sounded like, 'She's gonna kill us' rather than, 'She's gonna kidnap us' because it was cut off and only said, 'She's gonna Ki...'. He didn't regret it though.

Lance also found out that the lead on Essex before was a distraction so they could get a hacker chip to disable the institutes defenses.

Scott was in a lot of pain thanks to the implants. He wasn't really doing anything. The lack of sight probably contributed to that as well.

In a few weeks they would be ready. Dr. McCoy was going to be working with a trusted friend of Xavier. They were going to be removing the ruby quartz implants blinding Scott and repairing the optic nerves.

Until then, though, Scott was blinded.
