Legion Attacks!

Later that evening Xavier found Ororo and Logan in the study. "It's late," He said. "Shouldn't you two be getting some rest like the rest of the students?"

"Could ask you the same thing Charles," Logan remarked.

"I suppose you two are dwelling on the same thing I am," Xavier said. "Someone besides Cobra is out there hunting mutants. Possibly those that have a connection to us but for what purpose?"

"Could be anything," Logan sighed. "We're racked up quite an enemies list over the past couple of years."

"It could be someone new," Ororo remarked. "Someone we've never heard of."

"I doubt it," Logan grunted. "And today we didn't do that well against 'em. If it wasn't for Callisto and Spyke we would all have gotten trashed by the Morlocks. And I can't exactly blame them."

"We have to put a stop to this Logan," Ororo said. "We have to stop these kidnappings!"

"I'm with you on that!" Logan shot out his claws. "It's bad enough what happened to X23.I ain't letting any kid go through what I did if I have a say in it."

"I agree," Xavier spoke. Then he frowned. "Wait.I'm sensing something.I."

BOOM!

The entire house shook as the wall seemed to explode open. Although they were not injured to their horror nearly the entire east wall had been blown away, exposing all the rooms on that side. "How'd you like that little blast Dad?" Lucas laughed as he hovered over the mansion with an unconscious Jean in his arms. "Not bad for someone who's completely self taught wouldn't you say!"

"What are you doing here Lucas?" Xavier shouted.

"What? Can't a son drop by and see his old dad every now and then?" Lucas asked sarcastically.

"PUT HER DOWN!" Scott shouted shooting his eye beams at him.

"What a tired cliché," Lucas simply erected a force field around himself. "You're not much of a man if you can't protect your girlfriend mate."

"RELEASE JEAN AT ONCE!" Ororo flew up to him with Rogue not far behind.

"Uh.no," He used a psychic blast to send them reeling.

"How about you eat ice cubes?" Bobby shouted as he sent out a wave of ice and snow at him. Ray used his electricity and Amara used her fire abilities. Again Lucas simply used his shield to block the attack and then sent another psychic attack against them.

"These are the mutants you dumped my mum for?" Lucas laughed. "Pathetic Dad, simply pathetic!"

"You're the pathetic one if you have to kidnap an innocent girl for your own sick pleasure!" Logan shouted. "Come down here and fight!"

"Down boy!" Lucas telekinetically shoved him into a wall.

* Lucas! * Xavier shouted telepathically. * Your battle is with me! Put Jean down now! *

"Another time old man," Lucas grinned. "But right now I'd much rather have a conversation with your lovely star pupil here! Ta tah!" He laughed as he flew away.

"We have to go after her!" Scott shouted.

"When it rains it pours," Ray grumbled. "You okay Logan?"

"Yeah fine." Logan stood up. "Great they got another one!"

"No. This has nothing to do with the other kidnappings. Something tells me Lucas has an agenda of his own," Xavier frowned.

"Well it's about time you woke up."

Jean found her arms tied behind her on a strange bed somewhere. "What do you want Lucas?" Jean asked.

"Let's see lass," Lucas looked at her. "I kidnapped you from that mansion of my Dad's in the middle of the night. You're wearing your nightclothes. You're in a strange bedroom. What do you think I want? A meaningful dialogue on Middle Eastern politics of the late Twentieth Century?"

"I already have a boyfriend!" Jean sent out a telekinetic blast.

Lucas flew across the room but stopped himself. "Like I really care!" He sent a psychic attack at her, she countered it. "Oh you've gotten a lot stronger since we've sparred a ways back. That's interesting."

"I'm more than a little stronger!" Jean shouted, using her powers to break her bonds. "I'm gonna clean your clock! You're nothing compared to your father!"

"I'M TWICE THE MUTANT MY FATHER IS!" Lucas sent out a huge telekinetic/telepathic blast combo.

"I had to take on your father," Jean countered with her own blast. "I can take you out!"

"True, but this time you don't have Cerebro amplifying your powers now do ya lass?" Lucas snarled "This will be the best conquest I ever made!" He laughed as he sent a huge psychic attack that sent her reeling. "And the most satisfying, taking my father's prize pupil for my own pleasure!"

"You sadistic.UHGH!" Jean blacked out as she hit the wall violently. Lucas hovered over her. He used his telekinesis to take her unconscious body and laid it on the bed.

"You are going to be mine Miss Grey," Lucas grinned. "Whether you want to or not." His hand reached for her, eager to strip her of her clothing.

That was the exact moment when his world shattered into a massive wave of pain. He didn't know what hit him. But it wasn't Jean.
