Sorry it took me so long to write chapter two but I've been writing all my other fics which are also very good (hint! Please read them!)

I DO own Mary and Helen but everyone else (practically) is the private property of Marvel

Helen was being questioned but what she couldn't stand was the fact that everyone was making it sound as if she was the one in the most danger.

"Of course Mr Stevenson, we would recommend you upgrading you security system"

"-Would hate to see you daughter go missing"

"-The threats to your family are astronomical"

"FOR GOODNESS SAKE!!" Helen screamed "A GIRL HAS BEEN KIDNAPPED!"

Everyone in the room went silent.

"We-we know that miss but-!" Helen's dad saw that she was getting upset

"My daughter is right, I want you to put all your time and effort into finding this girl"

All the detectives and policemen left, hardly able to believe that they had practically been ordered around by a 15 year old.

Mr Stevenson put his arm around his daughter

"I promise that I'll get her back sweetie, what ever the cost"

For the first time in her life, Helen didn't think that money would solve this.

"So, you want us to go to England and find this kid?" Evan asked

"Don't make it sound like a vacation porcupine" Rogue grumbled

"Rogue is right, hopefully we will only be in England for a day, two days at the most" Xavier Explained "In ceribro I found a large group of mutants all using their powers. I believe that they may be a gang, very much like the brotherhood."

"You mean a whole bunch of mutants? All working together? They more I hear about this the more worried I become" Kurt sighed

"I understand your concern Kurt but, like the brotherhood, this group seems unorganised and I am certain that we will be able to get the girl out quickly and easily"

"That's what he always says" muttered Rogue *

Mary looked around it was mid November and frosty so she shivered as she looked around.

"I must be outside" she said out loud. As Mary stumbled around she realised that she was in a long concrete tunnel. Her feet were ankle deep in what can only be described as gunge.

The tunnel was curved but the stench around her was overpowering.

'Oh my god' Mary thought 'I'm in the sewers' at once she thought she was going to be sick

The London sewers were the work of genius but to Mary there was nothing more disgusting in the world. There were no lights so she had to wade forwards, keeping very close to the walls.

"Where do you think you're going?" came a gruff voice from the shadows.

Mary screamed as she was lifted on to someone's shoulders and carried away.

"Somebody HEEEEELLP!!" She cried but Mary knew no one would save her.

There was a light up ahead and as they walked towards it, Mary felt heat flow over her like a waterfall.

"Our little missy's awake" said the man dropping Mary onto the concrete floor. She turned around and saw dozens of people staring at her. In front of them all was a tall man, his hair was dyed black and his eyes were completely the same colour.

Mary had for a long time now known about Mutants but these people were quickly terrifying her.

"AH! Helen Stevenson! To what do we owe the pleasure?"

"Well, I didn't ask to come here" Mary grumbled "Who are you anyway?"

"Of course, how rude! I am Joseph"

"Charmed I'm sure" Mary said sarcastically

"I wouldn't be so cocky considering what kind of situation you're in" Joseph said simply

"You've lead us a merry dance sweetie" said another one "It took us a long time to realise that the girl who caused the incident last year was you"

Mary knew exactly what they were talking about, that had been when Helen had first discovered her powers. That meant that they knew what Helen's powers were.

"I don't know what your talking about" she said simply

"She's lying" came a female voice from the crowd

"I suppose that you aren't a mutant either" Joseph replied in a very patronising way

Mary didn't reply, afraid that the girl would give away that she wasn't really Helen

"Well then," Mary looked up and saw that Joseph was holding a barrel gun at her. Helen wouldn't have broken a sweat, guns posed no threat to her but Mary was terrified.

She stifled the urge to plead for her life. She'd die anyway.

Joseph smiled, thinking that he'd caught her out.

"I suppose that if you're not a mutant this would kill you huh?" he took the safety off

'I'm going to die' Mary thought.
