CHAPTER 11
-Premonitions and Search Parties-
"Chloe wait up." Evan called after her. They had reached the inside of the mansion and Chloe had already grabbed her coat and was on her way out the door.
"I can't. I have to go find Remy before Mystique does and she.she. I have to find Remy." She stated, not wanting to say what she thought was probably happening to her brother as they spoke.
"Look Chloe we can't just jump into this. We need to have a plan. We don't even know where Mystique would take Remy. Plus I'm sure he can handle himself against Mystique." Scott reassured her.
"It's going to be okay Chloe. The X-men will help you find your brother." Xavier said, rolling into the room.
The phone rang and Logan walked in the door just in time to answer it. "Hello? Yeah he's here. Hold on." Logan said into the receiver. "Chuck its for you." Logan said, handing him the cordless phone.
"Yes?.Oh!.No I understand completely.Yes I'll be there as soon as possible. I'm on my way.Alright thank you and goodbye." The Professor hung up the phone and paused in thought before looking up at the X-men.
"It appears that something has gone wrong with the device that is holding my brother Juggernaut. It has malfunctioned once again somehow and I must go down there and help them figure out how to fix it." Xavier told them all.
"I'm leaving Logan and Storm in charge." The two adults who had just entered the room nodded. Beast cleared his throat when his name wasn't mentioned.
"Hank I would like for to accompany me." Xavier told him after hearing this.
"I do not think that it would be wise if I." Don't worry Beast, I have a holowatch for you just for this type of situation." Xavier cut him off, knowing what he was going to say..
"What about Remy?" Chloe blurted out. She didn't know how dangerous Xavier's brother could be and didn't see this as a code red situation like the others who had gone up against him once or twice before.
"Ah yes. Well as soon as you get a lead on where he might be than you may address the situation with Wolverine and Storm." Xavier explained. He then left the room and the mansion with Beast at his side.
"Okay I'm gonna go back to the garden to see if Mystique might have left something behind that could give us a lead on where she's taken Remy." Scott said, as he left the room accompanied by Jean and Evan.
"And ve'll go to ze brotherhood und see if zey know anything." Kurt told the group. Logan nodded an okay and Kurt ported away with Kitty and Rouge, leaving a cloud of sulfur behind.
Storm went to go make sure everything was under control with the newer X- men recruits leaving Logan and Chloe alone.
"So what can I do?" She asked him rather anxiously.
"Uh.well I really don't think there's anything fer you to." Logan trailed off seeing the worried and impatient look on her face. She needed to be doing something constructive to keep her mind off the little detail of her brother possibly being tortured in some lab or something.
Logan sighed deeply and looked back at her. "I could use some help tuning up the X-jet incase we do need to use it in finding. incase we need to use it." Logan said, avoiding the subject of Gambit all together. He was fully capable of tuning up the jet himself but his stupid conscience kicked in and he felt sorry for the kid.
"Yeah.just follow me." He told her.
They were on their way to the area where the X-jet was when Chloe slid on something and hit the floor. "You okay kid?" He asked, turning around at the loud thud he heard and finding Chloe on the ground.
"Yeah, I just slid on something." She answered. Wolverine raised an eyebrow. How could someone slide on a carpeted floor? Then he saw it.
"What's that?" He asked, pointing to the white object on the ground by her feet. "Oh.guess that was what I slid on."
He picked it up and examined it. "It's an ace of hearts from a card deck." He said.
"So where's the rest of the cards?" She asked.
"I don't know this one probably just fell outta the deck." He concluded.
"Unless.She started. "Unless?" Logan echoed.
"Unless it's one of Remy's cards." She breathed. She reached out for the card that he handed her for a closer examination.
As soon as her skin touched the card everything went black. After a millasecond of darkness and excruciating pain in her head there was a bright flash of light and a vision of Remy and herself walking down an ally.
She noticed the street sign that said Revello Park Drive. Then she saw Remy and herself once again in the ally, only this time Sabretooth and Collosus were blocking their entrance and it was a dead end ahead.
Remy stood in front of Chloe but then she shifted into a blue women with red hair and hit him hard over the head with a random crowbar leaning against the building in the ally. Remy was knocked out cold.
Chloe awoke from the trance she'd apparently gone into and found herself on the floor again, gasping for air.
Logan was sitting next to her this time. He was the first thing she'd seen sense the black out. "Remy." She said in a heavy whisper, still taking in the much needed air. "Revello Park Drive." She told him more loudly and clearly then before.
"Huh?" Logan was very confused. She'd just blacked out, passed out, and now she was babbling something about a park or a drive or what ever. 'Damn the kid finally cracked under all the tension.' He thought to himself.
"Revello Park Drive. Remy." She kept repeating over and over again.
Jean, Scott and Evan walked in at this point.
"Whoa dude. What's up with her?" Evan asked the somewhat annoyed looking Logan.
"The stress was too much for her. Somebody help me snap her out of it already." Logan ordered the three who just stood there with blank faces.
"NO!" She shouted. "Not.no.visions.people.Remy." She moaned. Her eyes were shut tight now and she was still on the ground, clutching her head from the pain. It was as if she were talking in her sleep during a nightmare.
"See?" Logan confirmed to the others. "Maybe she's trying to tell us something." Jean suggested. Her theory was interrupted by more babbling though. "Sabretooth.Colossus.., NO!" She screamed out.
It was like she was in a trance or something to the unknowing others. Unfortunately it was just as bad. Everytime her mind tried to focus back to her normal thoughts kept reliving the vision over and over again, only without her blacking out.
"Chloe snap out of it." Scott told her, but it was to no effect.
Chloe was now in a kneeling position with her hands clutching her ears from the pain.
"Remy.bar.look out.no.hurt.don't hurt him.your hurting him." She cried, shaking her head furiously. Scott went over to her and grabbed her hands, trying to get her attention. Unfortunately for him she'd had the vision so many times that she now felt like she was in the premonition and as soon as Scott grabbed her hand in reality, Sabretooth had grabbed Remy by the wrist and twisted it so Chloe naturally saw Scott's touch as a threat to her brother.
"NO!" She yelled out in an ear piercing screech. Her electrical powers kicked in and she blew Scott across the room and into the wall. She than passed out from all the confusion and pain.

Keety are you sure zis is a good idea? Kurt asked.
"No, but I don't really see what other choice we have?" She hesitated before knocking on the brotherhood boarding house doors. No one answered.
She knocked again. Still no answer. "Kitty zey're obviously not home." Kurt told her, pulling her arm away from the door.
"Or maybe their like not answering because we've llike on occasion wiped the floor with them in battles." Kitty said in an obvious sort of tone.
"Or maybe they know you mates were coming and decided to high tail it out of there before anyone got to them."
Kitty and Kurt turned at the newcomers voice. "You!" Kitty gasped, astonished to see the red headed, pyromaniac, lazily sitting up in a tree and flipping his lighter on and off repeatedly.
"Vhere's Gambit?" Kurt asked the Aussie impatiently.
"Yeah, like tell us or we'll have to get like rough." Kitty said, trying to sound as intimidating as possible. Pyro raised his eyebrow at this and jumped gracefully down from the tree.
"You? Get rough with.me?" Pyro had to bite his lip to stifle a laugh. "Sorry mates, but in truth the Sheila doesn't seem like the type that would.or could hurt a fly." Pyro told them, trying to stifle more laughter, though failing miserably.
A cloud of sulfur formed behind Pyro. "She may not be able to hurt you but I can." Kurt said, porting the Aussie well above the brotherhood house.
"Hey, hey let's not get carried away mate." Pyro told the fuzzy porting elf.
"Zen I suggest you tell use Vhere Mystique has taken Gambit." Kurt answered.
"Look mate, I'm not the problem here. I was the one who tried to warn the bloke about Creed and Peter's little visit. Why do you think I'm hanging up here chatting with you?" John asked, trying to avoid looking down as much as possible. He dropped his lighter down on the ground and had no way of fighting against the blue elf, or gravity for that matter.
"He's like got a point there Kurt." Kitty yelled up into the air where the two boys resided. "Got to love the Sheila's." Pyro said to Kurt when he noticed that Kurt had listened to his teammate and brought him to the ground.
Kitty blushed but Kurt got back to the subject at hand. "So you're here to help us. Zen I suggest you help before I decide to port you over ze ocean." Kurt threatened.
John put his hands up in surrender. "I'll pass on that mate. Fire and water don't mix well if you know what I mean." He said, stepping a safe distance away from the blue elf, and towards the petite girl who was to him less of a threat.
"So how do we like know that your telling us the truth?" Kitty eyed their captive suspiciously.
"Why would I lie to.oh right, never mind." John trailed off, seeing how there wasn't any reason they should actually trust him at all.
"Look mates, all you have to know is that Remy's my friend and I don't usually like to see my friends getting their faces pounded in by an X- boss." John explained.
"Alright Ve'll take him back to Xavier to see if he's telling ze truth." Kurt told Kitty. Shadow Cat nodded in agreement. "Wait. What!?" John asked in nervousness but didn't get a reply.
Kurt grabbed Kitty's hand and Pyro's arm and ported them both back as far as he could go from the brotherhood house to the Institute.

Rogue walked down the empty streets of Bayville just as the sun came up. It had taken her a while but she'd finally managed to convince Kurt to port her to down town Bayville before they went to see the Brotherhood.
She figured that they'd cover more ground that way and if she needed any real help then she could just call someone on her comlink.
She walked past the closed stores, looking into their windows while scanning the area for the missing Cajun. She couldn't help but feel guilty every time she thought about how she'd gotten mad and socked him good for something he hadn't even done.
He was probably out somewhere, alone and confused. Either that or he was relaxing at a strip club somewhere, but even though he may have liked people to believe that there was nothing past the ego and the flirting Rogue knew better. She was almost positive that the ladder of the two was impossible.
She remembered the look of his heart breaking when his sister had said those things to him. She just had to find him. And for some reason her instincts told her to look around in the big city.
Rogue had yet to find any signs of Gambit's presence, which wasn't usually a bad thing. What if she did find him? Only he was hurt, or even.no she couldn't think like that. He was still alive. She knew he was still alive. He had to be.
She was about to go around the next street corner and give up on the current alleys when she heard what sounded like a trashcan being knocked over harshly. She turned around and readied herself for a fight but no one attacked.
The Goth heard voices in the ally where the noise was coming from and decided to get a closer look. She brushed a stray strand of her auburn and white locks from her face and tucked it behind her ear.
"Mind keeping a low profile Creed? We don't want our presence known too early or else the plan will be foiled and Magneto will use us as target practice with his little metal darts." Colossus hissed at his teammate after he clumsily knocked over the cans in the alley.
"Acolytes!" Rogue gasped. Why couldn't she have just thought it. Saying it would surely get their attention.
Sure enough the two men had heard her. Rogue covered her mouth to silence her heavy breathing but it was to no avail.
Colossus and Sabretooth turned quickly and stared at the wall she was sheltered behind. Rogue knew she couldn't take on two Acolytes by herself. She wanted to get help from the other X-men with her Comlink but with Creed's super hearing he'd hear her and it'd be the end of her.
She heard someone sniffing the air and let out a long, low growl. "X-man." Sabretooth growled again.
"Here? Are you sure?" Piotr questioned the feline.
"Positive." Creed said, stomping over to where Rogue stood.
She held her breath and hoped that they would get a call from Magneto and leave or that one of her teammates would miraculously appear out of nowhere. It didn't happen.
Rogue hated what she was about to do but found it a necessity to take shelter in a hiding place. There was no where to hide except behind the group of trash cans cluttered together so she took what was given to her and sat behind the cans.
Closer and closer the two men got to Rogues hiding place. She would have run but there was no where to run to. She had cornered herself into a dead end.
Sabretooth reached for the can she was now crouched behind and was ready to throw it across the street and tare apart whoever was behind it when the three mutants heard a car pull up to the apartment next to the alley they were in.
"Here you are. Rovello Park Drive. That'll be $7.95." The cab driver said gruffly as his two passengers stepped out of the taxi and onto the abandoned sidewalk.
"Come on Remy. Let's go check out the apartment. I have the key. It should fit the lock to the door on the side in the ally." A young girl said.
'Chloe? What's she doing here? And with Remy. Oh Gawd, Sabretooth and Colossus. Ah gotta help em.' Rogue thought to herself, noticing that Sabretooth's form had retreated from the trash can where she resided behind and was now standing behind the wall, waiting for the unexpecting siblings.
Rogue stood from her safety place and took a deep breath. She silently walked behind Colossus and did a round house kick. Too bad he'd heard her and instinctively suited up into his metal form.
CLUNK!
She hit the ground and could feel the pain rushing through her right leg when she hit the metal. 'Smooth Rogue. Very smooth.' She thought as the two mutants turned to face her.
