Work of fanfiction and butchering the English language and cursing my formatting.
Smithsonian museum.
"Not again ."Grumbled Terry looking at the man that stood on a glider dressed in a goblin costume with a yellow cloak.
Before anyone of the group could respond the person on the glider started to throw some pumpkin themed bombs.
Some exploded throwing the group backwards while one created a smoke screen.
Jubilation had dodged most of the bombs and started to fire fireworks at the villain.
The villain dodged and fired a couple of shots with a laser pistol at her.
The girl dodged those shots.
But before anyone could react the man on the glider raced forward and released a horrifying laugh who disoriented most of them except Terry who was still coughing from inhaling smoke.
In a matter of seconds the glider pilot had picked up Emma Frost and Daniella Moonstar and flew outside disappearing in some kind of portal that closed behind him.
After a moment professor Isles cleared up the smoke and gas.
Looking around he saw that most of the teens had recovered except miss Potter who was still shaking her head the same went for the Cerberus cub who was whining softly while checking both teens that he used as a pillow.
"Marcy get off girl. We are alright." Terry said while scratching behind an ear from one of the three heads.
Reluctantly the fire breathing animal obeyed but it kept hovering over both over her bonded and his mate.
Terry stood up and pulled the dazed Michael up. Her boyfriend was still a bit disorientated. After a moment his eyes focused a bit and he gave Terry a smile.
Jubilee had kneeled beside Moira and was moving her finger in front of the wolf girls eyes.
After a moment said wolf girl nodded and said. "One finger instead of three."
"Ok." Was the response of Jubilee.
Steve had kneeled beside Stanley and was checking the old security guard. After a few moments the old man opened his eyes and leaned a bit more against the wall he was seated against.
"I am okay captain." The old man said. Reaching for his radio he started to ask for backup.
"Who was that guy?" Moira asked.
"Looked like one of the many goblin villains to me." Michael said.
Jubilee nodded "Looked like the Hobgoblin to me but he was killed in jail according to the papers."
"And why was he here and not in New York?" Asked Terry.
"First Hermione gets kidnapped than we and now Professor Moonstar and the blond lady get kidnapped." Moira summed up.
"Who kidnapped Hermione actually?" Michael asked while scratching Marcy behind one of her ears.
A cough from behind them attracted their attention Turning around they saw Professor Isles looking at them.
"Miss Granger identified one of the attackers as her aunt. She was accompanied by three other persons. But for now we need you three to return to Boston. The search for miss Granger is already started and soon also the search for professor Moonstar and the other lady will begin."
Moira looked like she wanted to protest but a hand on her shoulder stopped her. Looking to her side she saw Jubilee shook her head.
Starting to speak Jubilee said " can I get a lift from you my school is near Berkshire County and I have to inform my teachers that miss Frost has been kidnapped."
The professor nodded." That can be arranged miss."
Steve having recovered his backpack and shield nodded "I will contact SHIELD and some of my friends ."
The teens and teacher nodded .
The four teens and Cerberus followed their teacher outside were they were met by some aurors that asked them some questions.
They had been missing for eight hours.
Their story was met with some disbelief until Steve interfered and told what he knew.
After this he said his goodbyes and disappeared in the crowd. Surrounding the museum.
After this they took a portkey to Boston. Arriving on the school they were met by some happy faces and some very sad faces.
Tjerk was consoling Fatima while Priya sat beside them with her head in her hands.
When the arriving group was spotted entering the dining hall both Gabrielle and Pierre ran to them and gave all three tight hugs that where soon followed by hugs from Victor and Anya who had a tearstained face.
"You three are save." whispered Anya while hugging Moira.
"Yes we are. I am sorry about Marie." The younger girl said while hugging her back.
The older girl smiled through her tears Marie had been her training partner in the auror courses and they had been close friends.
Jubilee kept herself a bit out of the way and asked professor Isles where she could make a phone call.
The man led her to the office of the secretary and handed her the phone at the desk.
Xaviers school for gifted youngsters Massachusetts.
Sean Cassidy otherwise known as the mutant Banshee heard the ringing of the phone. He and the two remaining boys had been searching for Emma and Jubilee. It seemed that both had disappeared.
At the moment he , Angelo , Jono and the three wards of the school where having a bit of a late dinner. Standing up from the table he ran to the nearest phone praying that it was news from both of them.
"Xaviers school for gifted youngsters." He said when he picked up the phone."
"He Cassidy its Jubilee." It felt of a great weight fell from his shoulders.
"Jubilee where are you and where is miss Frost?"
"I am currently in Boston being brought here in an evacuation from a magical class from Washington DC Had a bit of adventure before that but somebody kidnapped Frosty. I tell you the rest later" Sean frowned at the answer.
"I come to pick you up as fast as I can lass."
He heard someone talking in the background a moment later he had a different person on the phone.
"Hello this Professor Isles from the Boston school of Sorcery." Sean heard a man's voice say.
"This is Headmaster Cassidy of Xaviers school for gifted youngsters."
"A yes. Next week a couple of our summer students would be sent to your academy." He heard the professor say.
A light went up in Sean's head he had heard the name of that school before now he remembered why.
"How is miss Lee?"
"Healthy but worried about her teacher. I was surprised when they appeared with the disappeared students and adults."
"I see I will be there as soon as possible professor Isles."
Again there was talking in the background.
After a moment the professor was back on the phone.
"There is no need for that one of the student's parents is coming with a friend to here from Scotland and her friend will pick you up her name is miss Rasputin I believe."
This made Sean frown if he thought who the students parent was he knew a certain woman would not be happy.
"I will await her arrival. I will see you soon professor Isles."
"Of course headmaster Cassidy." With a click the connection was broken.
With a frown he started to dial a very familiar number.
After a moment of waiting he heard a familiar voice that warmed his heart say.
"Muir island research centre"
Scotland a couple of hours earlier.
Minerva looked shocked recognizing the older priest.
"Hello McGregor." She said in a cold voice.
Father Craig and miss Jones looked at the newcomer and the woman that had father Craig hanging in the air. Both were curious how those two knew each other.
Looking around the room father Liam McGregor eyes fell on the man hanging upside down in the air.
"Please let him down Minerva hanging like that is not that comfortable."
"I find it a very good learning experience for him McGregor." The woman identified as Minerva said in the same cold voice as before."
"Minerva we are both here for the same reason I think." Father Liam McGregor said. "What my cousin did was inhumane but taking it out on someone else is not right."
With a swish of her wand father Craig fell to the ground. After this Minerva took a step back and pointed her wand in a way that she could hit anyone in the room in a moment.
"How did you found out about what happened to Aileas?" Minerva asked in a clipped voice while looking at the elder of the two reverends.
"I spoke with an old friend of mine a couple of weeks ago. My brother had contacted me about something pertaining to the family. I was surprised when he showed me his family tapestry showing that Aileas died after giving birth to a child. The surprise continued when I talked with my friend who remembered a certain straying reverend that disappeared after Aileas was killed." Looking at his colleague at the ground. "It was rumoured he left with a child. Last week my investigation bore fruit when I spoke to a former member of this parish. Who told me about what happened to his ward."
Father Craig glared at the three other occupants of the room.
"It was for her own good her wickedness must be destroyed just like the wickedness of her mother." The younger reverend yelled.
Miss Jones slapped the back of his head and said.
"Who is without sin cast the first stone. Do you remember that passage in the bible father?" The father sounded like it left a bad taste in her mouth.
The chastised man bit back a retort while glaring at the older reverend and the witch.
Minerva pointed her wand at the man that had abused his own child because he would not admit his own failures. The urge to torture the man on his knees in front of her was overwhelming to her.
"Minerva he is not worth it. Go look for your granddaughter. It will not bring back your daughter but I might give you some closure." Said father McGregor recognising the intent to do harm in the eyes of his cousin in law.
Miss Jones nodded."Rahne would not like it if you beat the crap out of him. The lass has grown beyond living with this excuse for parenting. She works on Muir island with Lady McTaggart and is a member of Excalibur."
Minerva nodded and with a crack she disappeared.
"Well my dear could we maybe get a spot of tea? I think us three have some things to discuss." Father McGregor said to miss Jones the woman nodded at that. Offering a hand to the man on the ground miss Jones helped father Craig to stand on his feet after that action she left for the kitchen.
Near the Muir research center.
Rahne was taking a walk since she had found Moira she found herself constantly worrying about her daughter.
Lady Moira had chased her outside and told her to relax after telling her that the little lass was just fine and was having fun.
The week before Moira had left was a new experience for the two of them.
But her daughter had shown her that her fears if she could be a parent were unfounded. Moira was self-reliant but loved to spent time with her.
The week had been filled with both doing things together.
The visit of the Weasley's and Hermoine had been fun and she was now the legal parent of Moira while for the time being Arthur was in charge of the magical side. The man had explained that after a set amount of time she could decide who was the magical guardian of Moira but the ministry was allowed to deny some people on certain grounds.
That her daughter had to spend time in summer school in the United States was not a problem but it made her a bit irritated.
The lack of contact was most of the problem. Moira had been in a time bubble for the last two weeks and it had been hard for both of them.
Moira had called her almost immediately when she and Hermione had left the time compression.
That phone call had been amazing and raised both their spirits.
Like Hermione her daughter had kept a journal with letters about what happened when she attended summer school.
Rahne looked forward to reading it.
The downside was the surprise that her former best friend was Moira's dean and dorm mother. It should not have been a surprise as the brochure said that magical trained mutants where on the staff.
Dani had left SHIELD after her undercover mission in the MLF. Rahne had not spoken to her in years and their last meeting had destroyed their friendship.
Rahne had blamed her friend for the dead of Catseye who had died protecting a five year old who had been holding a basket with a couple of kittens.
A member of the MLF had shot at the child but Catseye had jumped in front of the child shielding the young boy with her own body dying instantly when she was hit.
The anger at her former friend came when she discovered that Dani had led the attack and had aloud said member to go around and shoot at anything he wanted.
Catseye was remembered in the press as the mutant student that had protected a small boy and was shot by a member of a group that preached they wanted to liberate the mutant race.
She was buried at the Massachusetts Academy beside most of the other Hellions.
Harsh words had been spoken by both Rahne and Dani when they had met again.
It was one of the reasons why Rahne had left X-factor and returned to Muir island.
Yes she missed Dani at times but she was not ready to forgive her or herself.
The other reason had been her psychic link with Havok.
Catseye had supported her when she had found out about the link with Havok. supporting her when the man's desires, emotions and feelings were send through the link and drove her to act in weird ways. One time she even took him to task about it.
Rahne smiled remembering the tongue lashing she gave Alex in front of Lorna and Valerie Cooper. Telling him to learn some self-control and think about his link mate. Some of the threats she had made had her and Lorna blushing like a pair of tomatoes and left Valerie Cooper in stitches.
This had led to both learning to block the link so long there were not too heavy most did not bled through well and distance between them helped and at least it worked both way's. She had promised him if he ever send the pain he felt to her to get rid of it without a very good reason again she would use one of the threats which Catseye had made.
After a couple of months the link and the part that made her a docile slave while in her human form were removed making both very happy.
Walking further down the path that led back to the research centre she saw a woman appear a dozen or so of yards ahead of her. Said woman was dressed in robes but had forgone the traditional hat most witches wore.
Turning around the woman spotted Rahne and gasped while bringing her hand to her mouth.
Rahne surprised by this gesture walked to her and asked.
"Are you okay ma'am?"
The woman nodded and spoke in a soft voice.
"Yes lass you just remind me of someone. May I ask you something?"
Rahne nodded her consent.
"Is your name Rahne?"
Surprised Rahne replied." Aye it is. I am Rahne Sinclair."
What surprised her was the tears that formed in woman's eyes.
"I thought so. You resemble your mother greatly."
Rahne raised an eyebrow after those words.
"Sorry where are my manners I am Minerva Mcgonagoll. And I am your seanmhair" (grandmother.)
Rahne recognising the name gasped and started to slowly shift to her hybrid form while taking a few steps back.
"Please Rahne I don't mean you any harm" Minerva spoke in a soothing voice
"Say's the woman who played with my daughter's life." Growled Rahne
"You have a daughter that I know?" Minerva asked
"Yes you should know her as miss Potter." Snarled Rahne
The look she received was a look of confusion until something clicked in the brain of the woman that claimed to be family of her.
"So Harry was adopted. Lily and James never told me that." Minerva said.
"I heard about the plans you had for her when you were still working at Hogwarts. Let's make one thing clear your plans to use her as a pawn will not happen." Rahne almost screamed the last part.
The clothes she had worn had turned into her uniform
The woman in front of her just nodded and spoke.
"Rahne I do not intent to do that lass. I lost my daughter through the rotten ideas from your seanair (grandfather) and your great grandparents. I had hoped that she had gotten a good live but that did not happen."
"What do you mean?" Rahne asked finding herself being confused by the woman's words
Your seanair cast your mother out when it was revealed she was a squib. A Squib is a child born without the capability to wield the magic born to parents that are magical. My husband and I were married under a contract that was planned by our parents. I despised him and my parents adored him.
The only good thing that came from our marriage in my eyes was your mother." After a moment sorting her thoughts Minerva continued.
"When your mother was born I was told I would not be capable of getting pregnant again through some complications that occurred during her birth.
When she grew up she never showed signs of having magical capabilities.
This displeased your grandfather and when she turned eleven and not received any invitation from the magical schools he became furious.
That day was the last day I have seen her."
Rahne saw the tears forming in the woman claiming to be her grandmothers eyes.
Minerva continued after a moment.
"Douglas banished her from the family and dumped her somewhere. He told me to never speak about her again when I returned home from my job at the ministry that night.
Some way your mother survived and after some years started to work on the streets of Edinburg. There she had after a while a regular costumer named John.
While your mother was a squib she was an adapt brewer of potions and when she was pregnant she brew an heritage potion. A few weeks after your birth she was targeted by the Death eaters. She tracked your father who was a reverend in a local parish and left you in his care and led her pursuers away from you."
Rahne gasped if what this woman told her she had a good idea who her biological father was.
"This can't be true." She whispered shocked by the story.
"I Minerva McGonagoll. Swear on my life and magic that what I told Rahne my granddaughter the truth so far I know it."
With a wave of her hand her wand lighted up
Rahne's mouth fell open but before she could say anything her communicator came alive.
"Kurt to Rahne. Come in please." Said the German accented voice from the leader of Excalibur.
"Rahne we have some strange readings in the area nearby your position. I am sending reinforcements."
"Take this please." Minerva said and she gave Rahne a small box after that she disappeared with a crack.
Looking at the spot where the woman had stood a moment ago she tapped her communicator.
"Rahne here, situation under control awaiting backup. " she said.
"Wat happened." asked Kurt
"I had a chat whit an unexpected visitor."
"Any one we know?"
"You have no idea lad." Was her reply.
