Disclaimer: I do not own the X-Men. Don't sue.
Info U need to know: Some X-Men were aptured and some escaped. Since it's been about a month since I saw the episode, I'm taking a wild guess as to who managed to escape, and who was captured. ------List of those who were CAPTURED: Wolverine, Beast, Evan, Nightcrawler, and Professor Xavier has gone missing.--------- Those who ESCAPED are: Fred, Jean, Kitty, Lance, Storm, Todd, Scott, Wanda, all of the new recruits, and Tabitha. I am unsure what happened to Pietro, maybe I'll write it into the story, Magneto's fate is as unknown as his son's, and don't worry, I'll later put those other mutants in later. Plus, I'm putting rogue as MIA. Because, I plan to show you what happened to her a little later.
Part Three: SHIELD
Scott asked the one question that was one everyone's mind. "Where are we?"
Chameleon smiled and got out of her seat. "It's a secret military base called 'SHIELD'. It's about three thousand feet above the ground right now, and it just saved our butts." Chameleon walked over to the hatch and walked through it, just like Kitty would. In her wake, a slight mist had formed and began to immediately dissipate. "No one leave," she said, popping back in again, as well as disappearing again.
Everyone stared at one another as they all thought the same question.
What the hell had they gotten themselves into?"

"Chameleon, I must say, it's good to see you again. Tell me, how are you on this lovely day?"
"Cut the crap commander, you've seen the news," Chameleon snapped as the eye-patch wearing commander walked up to her. He smiled at her. "Yes. I have. And it showed you blowing some cop cars."
"Please. You couldn't give a crap about the Bayville P.D.'s recent vehicular loss. You care about our recent exposure. And it's the only reason that you came to our aid today."
The commander smiled at Chameleon. "Well. It seems I had forgotten you're speedy thinking Chameleon. And you're right, I couldn't care less what had happened to the police vehicles." The commander's smile faded. "However, if you had harmed the police themselves..."
"But I didn't," Chameleon interjected, glowering at the man who was at least three fourths of a foot taller than her. "So the subject is moot."
The commander's smiled returned. "You're right. You didn't. And it is. What care do you're friends need for your -very- brief stay on my base?"
"I have three gunshot victims that need to be fixed enough so I can get them back to Shinka Manor. And I 'd appreciate it if you didn't put any sort of your experimental inhibitors on them. You know the mistress didn't like your last try. Especially since it was on her daughter."
The commander glared at Chameleon. So young, and she had duties that would take an army commander twenty years to achieve. "Fine," he agreed, and held out his hand. Chameleon stared at it before turning on her heel and walking back to the jet. *I'm not that stupid,* she whispered in his mind before smoking back into her mistress' jet. The commander smirked at the girl's presumptions and called for the medical teams.

"How long are we gonna be here?" Lance asked as he eyed the military figures watching (but trying not to look like it) the X-Men, the two uninjured of the Brotherhood, and those in the group who had showed up to save them. It had been fort-five minutes since the medical teams had come to take away Kitty, Wanda, and Toad; and he was getting a little impatient. Plus that weird Chameleon girl had gone with them, dragging Summers, Jean, and that weird cat girl who was with her along for the ride.
"Not long," replied one of the speedsters in charge of watching over Mystique, who was now tied down to a chair in the jet and unconscious. "Usually, our visits here never last more than a couple of hours."
"You come here often?" Tabitha asked, rolling a small explosive around in her hand while she waited through her boredom. She noticed a weird doctor looking type in a lab coat eying it.
So she chucked it.
_______________________________________
Chameleon ignored the commander when he informed her that one of those she had brought with her had set off an explosive in the docking area. Jean apologized for it, and Scott said nothing. The cat girl just snorted and continued to watch as the doctors removed the third and final bullet from Kitty's chest. "Commander, what is that metal tube that they are placing near her heart? It obvious from your doctor's lack of urgency that the girl was not hit in the heart. What are they doing?"
The cat girl eyed the doctors sharply as the commander explained. "It is to stabilize one of the vents that enter her lungs. It is on the verge of collapsing, and needs to be supported until it can be fixed. Merely a temporary measure, I assure you. My doctors will remove it when her vent is ready."
"Can she be transported when they are done stitching her up?" the cat girl asked.
"Yes," the commander answered; then realized his stupidity.
"Then have your doctors strap her to a gurney so we can take her and the other two who have stabilized to Shinka. The Mistresses' own physicians there can handle all other necessary medical treatments."
"I advise against it," said the doctor who came walking through the doors.
"But I don't follow your' advice. You are not my teacher, nor my ally. Now strap her and the others to gurneys and get them to the jet before I ask Vyne to speak with your greenhouse and encourage it into three months growth."
"Fine," snapped the doctor, who walked back into the medical room to follow through with what Chameleon wanted.
"C'mon, back to the plane," Chameleon said, and began walking down the hall and through the twisting halls of the base to the docking area.
"What you said was kind of heartless," Jean spoke up as she and Scott caught up with the short girl and her feline looking partner.
"And ungrateful too," Scott added in.
Chameleon shrugged. "Trust me, I said the right thing. You haven't known these people as long as I have. They're sneaky, and they'll have an inhibitor in you before you know what's going on."
Scott and Jean said no more as they heard Chameleon's angered tone towards the SHIELD commander and his staff.
________________________________________
"What's an inhibitor?" Scott asked as they finally came into the docking area. Tabitha was laughing at Mystique as she tried to get out of her ropes, and everyone else just looked on.
"It's a device created to inhibit a mutants powers to the point where only the person who holds the controls to it can dictate when and where you can use your powers. I had one on me once. Trust me, it wasn't a pleasant experience."
"You said they tried it on your bosses daughter?" Jean asked as they approached the group.
"Yeah. That was an even more unpleasant experience for the SHIELD guys. Mistress was not happy that they were experimenting usage of them on her daughter. And she was even unhappier when they tried to use it as leverage to control us."
"Us?" Jean asked. Everyone else looked on as Chameleon's face took on a dark expression. " 'Us', as in all of us who live at Shinka, our haven."
"What happened?" Lance asked. The doctors could be seen wheeling over their three friends, and Chameleon was not looking at them kindly.
"Trust me, that's a story for later. And one that your teacher Logan can tell you when we get him back." The doctor's arrived at the jet, and the one who had spoken earlier once again stated that she didn't like what was going on. The patients should stay on the base.
The speedster from earlier snarled at the doctor, her apparent twin did the same. The doctor stepped back and shut up.
"Contact us if there's a problem with the public and Shinka," the eye patch wearing commander said as Chameleon was about to step onto the jet. She sniffed at him and closed the hatch.
"Where to?" asked the occupant of the navigator's seat who was starting to have vines grow out of his head. "Home," Chameleon replied. The pilot and Navigator smiled and nodded before guiding the jet out of the flying fortress known as SHIELD.
"Do we follow them?" asked the commander's aide, who stood by his side and watched with him as the jet flew off at a high rate of speed.
"No."
"No?"
"No." The commander moved away form the deck window and began walking to his office.
"Why not?" asked the aide as they passed those who were below their rank.
"Because they are people we don not wish to make angry. Instead,. I want you to find our deserter and have the information sent to Shinka's mistress. I'm sure she'd be pleased to know where the man who holds her husband is."
"Yes, commander."
"And lieutenant."
"Yes, commander?"
"Keep it all very quiet. I don't want those against the mutants to corrupt your search."
"Yes, commander."
The lieutenant left his commander's side made his way to his research area to follow through with orders. They meant that he'd have to leave the base, so he needed a place to appear quietly and discreetly.
The commander walked into his office and sat down in his chair. He ran his fingers through his hair and had no idea what to think of the days events. So, instead, he just sat there and didn't think.
That is, until one of his lesser came to inform him of a problem on the prison deck. Then he just went off to do his job, and forgot about thinking about the days events, so that he could just let what would happen next, happen.
After all, when mutants were involved, nothing was predictable. Only the fact that things would be unpredictable...was.

Hellllllllloooooooooooo!!!!!!!
Thanks for coming back. I really appreciate. And I apologize for taking so long, again, to put things up. It'll get even worse when school starts. I warn you of that now.
As usual, let me know what you think. And in case you're wondering, 'Shinka' is the word for the biological concept of evolution. So.....
Bye! Come back later!
