Summary: Another short chapter this time at the X-mansion in the med. lab. It's chaos right now and Tommie recognizes someone who's there. Who is he and why is she so desperate to get to him?

When Tommie's eyes blinked open, she immediately started squinting from the bright light. " No." She whispered, thinking she was back in the camp's lab.
" Jean? She's awake." A voice called, causing Tommie to slam her eyes shut and even out her breathing, hoping that whatever machines she was attached to wouldn't let them know if she was or not.
" Scott she's still asleep." Another, female, voice answered, following the clip-clop of heels. Who in their right mind would wear heels and be a doctor?
" I heard her Jean." The man argued, a hand hovering over Tommie's left shoulder.
" Scott, I don't have time for this. There are others that are hurt worse." That got Tommie's attention.
" Who?" She asked, sitting straight up on the bed, knocking 'Scott's' hand away. The next thing either person knew, Tommie was pulling out all the little needles that connected her to the machines by her bedside. A scream from the other side of the room brought Tommie's head straight up to look at the boy they were trying to hold to the table.
" Danny!" She cried out, trying to run over to him, ignoring the shot of pain through her side. Strong arms wrapped themselves around her shoulders, pulling her back. " Let me go! Let me go!" Tommie shouted, trying to get to the little boy.
" Logan! Grab her feet!"
The entire hospital area was a mess, people were crying and screaming and moaning in pain, the X-men doing everything they could to help. Logan turned from where he was holding one patients' hand while they got the final few stitches to look at Scott. Seeing the trouble he was having holding the girl he let go and walked over, trying to avoid the girl's feet.
The look on Tommie's face changed as Logan got closer. Using Scott's grip to her advantage she jumped up, holding her feet prone in mid-air as Scott struggled to hold her entire weight up. Just as Logan stepped within range, one of her feet snapped out into Logan's nose, causing a clean break and for the bigger man to stumble.
Dropping her feet back to the floor she grabbed onto Scott's hands, bringing her foot back to stomp on his own. She moved her head forward before sending it colliding backwards with Scott's nose, causing another break. Once he let go Tommie was running, literally jumping over patients in beds to get to the boy. A big blue man stepped in front of her and managed to get a sedative into her body before she could move away.
The last thing she was 'Danny' struggling and crying, trying to get to her. Then everything turned black as she fell to her knees and fell onto the cold metal floor.

A/N: Okay, so who's Danny? And where'd he come from? I mean, Tommie sure seemed to want to reach him, even took out Logan to get there, has to be someone important, right? And if he was at the camp with Tommie don't you think she would have seen him? Just how long was she unconscious? All will be revealed soon, don't worry. And to my only reviewer, I'm glad you like this morph. Thanks for the compliment. Hope you continue to think that.
Tell me what you think, have a good life.
