"You don't know what you're doing," John growled.
"I think I do," Bobby replied. "I like to call it 'saving my own neck'."
"Let me go!" John yelled, trying to break through the vines.
"No," Bobby replied. "Not until you tell me what's going on."
"I... I can't," John told him.
Rogue walked to John, not having to concentrate on the plant anymore. She reached to his jacket and into the pocket. She pulled out his Zippo lighter and walked back with it.
"Maybe this would help convince him," Rogue replied.
Bobby tried not to think about Rogue, since he didn't know why she was mad at him in the first place.
"Give that back!" John yelled.
"Not until you tell us what's going on!" Bobby told him, getting annoyed.
"Shit," John mumbled. "Okay. I'll tell you what I know..."
"I'm listening," Bobby told him.
"Magneto wants to use Cerebro to find someone," John told him.
"Who?" Bobby asked.
"I don't know," John replied. "All I know is that he needs there help..."
"Is that it?" Bobby asked. "That's all he wants from the mansion?"
"Yeah," he replied. "All he needs is for Xavier to cooperate and then he's gonna leave."
"Okay," Bobby replied, knowing that there was something John was keeping from them.
"Let him go," Bobby told Rogue.
"I don't believe him," Rogue replied, opening the lighter. "I say we destroy this."
Bobby looked over at her and saw that her thumb was toying with the starter. Just one spark would give John the power...
"NO!" Bobby yelled, but she spun the starter and a flame popped up and an evil smile appeared on John's crimson lips...

Bobby looked around the strange place he was in. It was obviously a church... and candles covered almost every inch of the floor and pews. It was creepy and Bobby was all alone on the ground... except...
Except for a wooden cross in front of the alter... On the wooden cross was John. He was still and his head hung low and his shirt stripped off him. All he had on was a pair of turn jeans that looked like they had been through hell. There were burn marks and slashes in them... and God only knows what else.
On John's chest and stomach were cuts that were recently sliced, and there was rows of holes that looked like nails that dig into his skin. And on John's face were trails of the tears he shed from all the fear and pain that he had undergone.
He was tied to the cross with barbed wire. Blood dripped from his arms and his feet and puddle had already formed underneath the cross. The only difference between John and Jesus at that point was that John had no crown of thorns on his head.
Bobby knew deep down that normal people had done this to John. They didn't accept John or any other mutants... they were all doomed to die by the hands of the normal, and Bobby couldn't think of anything to do about it.

Bobby woke up in fear... sweat covered his entire body and his he was extremely cold again. He breathed heavily and looked around the room for anything familiar... anything that he could feel safe around.
It was all a dream... but he knew the dream would somehow become reality...
A/N: Sorry about the short chapters, but this is finals week so I'm stuck studying until then. Thursday is my last two finals, so then I can pick up the pace because school will be over ;)
