RV: New chapter! And some answers for those who asked.
SperryDee: Destiny's mom is Scott's older sister. I know he doesn't have one but I need a way to connect the two. Scott doesn't know he had an older sister. Read "9. Author's Note" it explains some in there.
Mr. X: There's no need for name calling. It is very childish. I know Logan has a healing factor but even he can die from a sharp object penetrating the heart. Plus I needed that part. Hopefully you'll understand that when you finally reach this chapter.
Innocent Evil: Congratulations on graduating boot camp. Glad you're back.
RV: Well on with the chapter.

I feel a gloved hand touch the back of my neck. It's Rogue. "What sick and disturbing thing have you done now, Magneto?"
"I'm dreadfully sorry, Rogue, but this is between Destiny and me. By the way I love what you've done to your hair."
I can feel Rogue tense up in anger. "Well at least I'm not an old coot who hates and despises everyone because he can't stand to look at himself in the mirror after realizing he could have killed an innocent child so he could restore his own childhood," Rogue fires back.
The pain continues to build inside me ripping a terrified scream from my throat. "What did you do to me?"
I feel Magneto's icy gaze on me. "I had James inject you with a serum that kicks in during periods of emotional stress. It is a mixture of X-genes from other mutants. It adds powers to the ones you already have. The more pain you experience the stronger the power. Obviously you're not that strong yet. I figure when you became strong enough I'd give you the other to stop the 'pain' you are experiencing now." His gaze warms and he smiles. "Join me and I'll stop the pain now if you wish."
"No!" I scream.
"I see you need more of an incentive. Mystique! Sabretooth! Toad! Take care of are three prisoners. I'll handle the Wolverine," he orders.
Sabretooth locks his arms around my waist, pinning my arm to my sides as the pain only increases. "Like get your slimy tongue away from me!" I hear Kitty yell behind me. 'I can't let this happen,' I thought as the last wave of pain hits me like lightning. "Let. Us. Go!" I shout as a bright light bursts from my body.
The light grows brighter and bright as it spreads in all directions. Suddenly everything goes dark and Sabretooth's arms are no longer around me. I feel myself falling.

The light was so bright it nearly blinded him. Magneto pushed himself to a sitting position. It took him a moment to adjust his eyes to the blinding sun. He then noticed the sand beneath him. What the hell happened? Why am I in a desert?, he thought to himself while searching for the rest of his party.
Mystique, Sabretooth and Toad lay a few yards away in the sand. Magneto slowly crawled to his wondering again what had happened. He made his way over to Mystique and helped her to her feet.
"I'm going to kill Liam," she snarled shaking sand from her red hair. "He didn't tell us she was this strong already." She looked around her. "Where the hell are we?"
"I don't know which exactly," said Toad as he made his way to Magneto and Mystique with Sabretooth not far behind, "but we're in a desert-"
"No shit, Sherlock," Sabretooth grumbled.
"Would you let me finish, you overgrown, hairy, polar bear's ass?" Toad asked then smacked him in the back of the head with his burnt tongue. Sabretooth growled. "Like I was saying, I don't know which desert we're in but its one in Africa. I haven't seen enough of it to know."
"I told you watching too much educational TV was bad for you," Sabretooth muttered.
"Well at least I wish to have a functional brain," Toad snapped.
Magneto turned away from their childish bickering and pulled out the cell phone he carried in his pocket. He quickly dialed in a number and placed the phone to his ear. However he heard nothing. "Damn it! The phone's dead!" Growling he hurled the phone into the desert. "Stop your damn bickering and start walking."

The X-jet landed a few yards from Logan and the girls. Xavier was the first to exit the aircraft and soon followed by Jean, Storm and Cyclops. Cyclops and Jean knelt next to the unconscious dark haired girl while Storm helped Logan then Rogue to their feet. Kitty slowly made her way to Xavier.
"What happened, Kitty?" the professor asked.
"Magneto and his goons attacked us. He wanted Destiny to join him but she said no and did something to them," Kitty blurted out in a rush, "making them disappear."
"Who is Destiny?" Storm asked her head tilted to the side in confusion.
"The girl," Logan answered walking over to the girl. "My daughter."
