Fixing the Past
Ch10
A/N: Okay, here comes another chapter. Uploading this one sooner than expected because I took such a long time with the previous chapter. & L'ange-Sans-Ailes, that's a very interesting hypothesis about who Pietro is talking to…
Tuesday, August 22nd; 7pm.
At the Xavier Institute for Gifted Youngsters, out X-men were in an uproar. After hearing Kitty's story, a lot of the newer students were panicking & the older ones didn't know what to make of it. And as if things weren't crazy enough as it is; Professor Xavier, Wolverine, Storm, & Jean were missing. No one knew what to make of anything that was going on.
"Look, we have to calm down." Scott said, over all of the noise. He adjusted his ruby glasses in an attempt to calm himself down. Hank walked next to Scott and put a furry hand on his shoulder. "I think we should heed Kitty's warnings & figure out a plan for what may come. If I'm correct, this destined day is tomorrow. I'm afraid we don't have the luxury to waste time worrying."
"Maybe we should split up. Some of us could go look for clues and try to find the Professor and the others." Bobby voiced. Scott shook his head. "That's not a good idea. Storm and Jean went to go look for the Professor and Wolverine and they ended up disappearing as well. We can't risk that happening again." "But, we NEED them." Scott's eyebrows furrowed together. "We can't and we won't." he stated firmly through clenched teeth.
"Look! Bottom line is; we need to do something." Kitty injected. "So, let that go for now and let's put our heads together and come up with a plan!" "I don't know…" Kurt sighed. Jubilee (A/N: I know in the series, Jubes went back home at this point, but that didn't happen here! No one left, not even Evan!) jumped to her feet. "Wait! How about this…"

"Hey!-I-need-to-talk-to-you-guys." Pietro said loudly as he burst through the door. The other three inhabitants of the room stared up at him, unsure of what to make of this visit. "Now, what could a fast-talkin' boy like you want with a shady group like ours?" Gambit asked; his red eyes flashing as he toyed with an ace of hearts card.
"We have some business to discuss." The reply came from behind Pietro. Pietro looked straight ahead, giving fixed looks to the three acolytes. The three of them looked to the source of the voice and their eyes widened. Remy's card fell out of his hand. He quickly recovered and smiled devilishly. "Well then, why dontcha' come in and we'll… talk."

A/N: Well, another short one, but I hadn't expected this chapter to be long from the beginning when I started writing it. I hope you're enjoying the woodles of secrets I've weaved into the story! Dum Dum dum Tomorrow's the day!
