Lance looked with pained eyes at his friend on the floor. Pietro had wrapped his arms around himself and was shaking with heart-breaking sobs. Lance knelt beside him and put an arm around his friend. He could hear him talking quietly, begging Rogue to come back to him.
"I'm all alone." He whispered.
Lance placed both hands on Pietro's shoulders and lifted him onto his knees, facing him.
"No Pietro." Lance said sternly. "You aren't alone, and you never will be alone. We're here for you for the rest of your life, understand
Pietro looked at him with tear-filled eyes. Finally he nodded before collapsing into Lance's arms and crying uncontrollably on his trademark vest. Lance held Pietro tightly and then felt another pair of arms wrap around both of them. Lance looked up at Todd and gave a sad smile. Then he felt the house shake as Freddie came over and proceeded to crush them all in a bear hug. Lance turned to look down on Pietro who had ceased crying and was now just staring out the still open window to the raging storm beyond.
"What happened to her?" He asked.
Lance shook his head. "I don't know Pietro, but I would bet my life that I know someone who does."
He let go of Pietro and stood up.
"Freddie, you stay here with Pietro. Todd come with me, we're gonna go calling on a friend."
Lance managed not to shake the house with his anger, but his entire body shook with fury. Todd glanced back at Pietro and Freddie one more time and then followed Lance out the door and down the stairs.

The creature flew to the ground weakly, landing on the inside of a wall.
"It is here." It said tiredly.
Well done, my friend. You made excellent time considering your condition. Now come to me.
It nodded and moved with lightning speed until it was inside a huge building and into one of the building's little rooms.
"It is here now, where is Xavier?"
"Ah, my friend, I am right here."
It leapt and turned around to find its friend in a moving chair, holding… the creature sniffed food!
"Yes my friend, eat all that you want. And then you may rest in a real room."
It nodded impatiently, it didn't care about where it slept, it just wanted that food!
"Very well. Here you are."
Xavier held out the large plate filled with meat and bread. It snatched the plate and was crouching in a corner before the professor had blinked. He smiled proudly.
"You have developed far quicker then I imagined, wonderful. Friend, come with me now."
It looked up, food dripping from its mouth.
"Put down the food and come with me." Xavier tried again.
It looked at him for a moment and then bared its fangs at him before going back to eating.
Charles frowned dangerously.
"Friend, that was not very nice. Come with me…now
It cried out in pain as the professor gave it a mental lashing. It whimpered and dropped the plate, scurrying over to Xavier.
"Much better." Charles smiled. He opened a door that lead to a small room with a bed and a few lights in it. "This will be your room." He said.
Its hackles raised when Xavier shut the door behind the both of them. It started to hyperventilate and its eyes went wild. Charles realized his mistake in the nick of time and opened the door again. The creature settled down somewhat and moved to the large window over looking the forest behind the building. Xavier frowned for a moment, making a decision. Finally he smiled.
"Friend," It looked over at him. "I have changed my mind. You will sleep outside in the forest. You can go anywhere you like in there, but you will never leave the forest understand?"
It nodded in quick agreement.
Charles opened the window. "This is your domain from now on."
The creature didn't respond, it simply leapt out the window and flew through the air before diving slowly into the trees to sleep. Xavier watched it fly and then smiled evilly.
"You're mine once again."

(A/N: And now the moment you've all been wanting since chapter…I forget but for a long time!)
Scott summers slammed into the brick wall with a cry of pain.
"Alvers you're going to fry!" He said, spitting out blood.
"I wouldn't do that, yo." Todd said dangerously. With him he held two young freshmen.
Scott scowled. "What? Do you think I give a fuck about two little bastard punks? I'll blast through them to get to you!"
Lance balled up his fist and slugged Scott again, sending him staggering. Lance walked quickly over to the doubled-over senior and kicked him in the gut, sending Scott reeling to the dirt with a scream. Lance crouched over him and pulled him up so that their faces were inches apart.
"You misunderstood little Johnny and Mike's purpose here today, Summers." He whispered. "I know you can't hit all of us, and one of them is bound to run over to that big crowd of people around the corner and scream at the top of their little high-pitched lungs that Scott Summers is a Mutie."
"The Professor"
"Isn't here to save you is he? And I'm fairly sure that your little slut Grey isn't going to be able to help. We dispatched of her and her boy toy rather well I would say."
Scott started to feel the cold hand of fear replacing his anger. Lance seemed to notice this because he gave a small cruel smile.
"So you see you little fuck, your ass is mine." With that Lance grabbed Scott by the hair and slammed him into the brick wall of the school.
"Where is Rogue?" Lance demanded.
"I don't know!" Scott cried.
"Wrong answer!" Lance kicked Scott in the chin. "Where is Rogue?" He demanded again.
"I don't know!" Scott screamed.
"Alright we'll come back to that question." Lance said, dragging Scott to face him.
"What happened to Rogue?" He asked.
"I don't know what you're talki-" Lance kneed Scott in the stomach, causing Scott to spew blood al over Lance's shirt and pants before dropping to the ground.
The two freshmen watched in horror. They would have screamed but for the duct tape Todd had wrapped around their mouths. Lance stood over the barely conscious Scott. "One last time, and then I'm going to give you over to Pietro, understand? What did you fuckers do to Rogue?"
"I-" Lance stood up strait and put his booted foot on Scott's groin area.
"You what?" Lance seethed between clenched teeth. Scott's eyes widened behind his ruby glasses.
"It was the professor." Scott finally blurted out.
"Tell me something I don't know soon or you're gonna have an involuntary sex change." Lance said. Scott squeaked in terror.
"The professor used to put blocks in Rogue's head every time she absorbed someone so that she could think clearly. He removed the blocks and reversed them, causing all the powers she's absorbed to resurface. She's gone completely insane. Eventually it'll kill her."
"Alright," Lance said, managing to hold himself back from killing the bastard beneath him. "Where is she?"
"I don't know, I swear I don't know! I told you everything I know!"
Lance growled and stepped off of him. Scott lay in the dust, sighing with relief. He managed to roll onto his hands and knees.
"Hey Alvers!" Lance turned. Scott looked at him with blood hanging from his grinning open mouth.
"That little bitch doesn't know who anyone is. Even if you did find her, she'd probably kill you and eat you for dinner."
Todd looked at Lance worriedly, but Lance just frowned.
"She'll know us, we're her family."
Scott laughed. "Her family? Does that make you her big brother?" Lance just scowled.
"Well then big brother, I guess I should tell you something. Your little sister is a hot little slut. And if she comes to the institute, well she's going to be pretty vulnerable wouldn't you say? I just might have some fun before she dies, or maybe even as she dies, or maybe-"
Todd gave a savage yell and charged at Scott. Scott's eyes widened as he saw the freshman pipsqueak run at him looking like a wild man. Todd jumped into the air and kicked Scott with one of his unnaturally strong legs, making a satisfying crunch before sending him head over feet until he landed in an unconscious heap. But Todd wasn't finished. He leapt onto the unconscious mutant and started to beat the crap out of him.
"Don't ever fucking touch Rogue you here me asshole!?!" Todd screamed, tears were running down his face. "I will rip you apart if you come near our family again!!! Stupid mother fucker!!"
Lance came over and laid a hand on Todd's shoulder.
"Todd. Come on. We have to go." Todd gave an infuriated sob and kicked the unconscious Scott one more time before allowing Lance to lead him away. Lance paused as they passed the two terrified boys. He took out a knife and cut through the duct tape, ripping it away from their faces. Both of them gave a cry of pain before shutting up and looking in horror at the senior in front of them.
"I'm not going to hurt you." Lance said. "But if you tell anyone about this, well, you saw what happened to him." He nodded towards Scott. They nodded and then ran. Lance didn't really care about them. He held the still crying Todd by the shoulders and led him back to his jeep. After he had Todd safely secured, Lance started the jeep and drove home. He had a lot of planning to do. No one messed with his family.
This meant war.
