Chapter 5 – The Rescue Again

Whitney opened her eyes slowly and saw that she had again been moved to a different room. 'Different room... I was moved.... Which means I fell asleep' with that thought she started to panic.

'What if they got a hold of my blood...I have to figure out what they want my blood for... God knows its not going to be anything good.... This stinks... oh man...' she closed her eyes again trying to think...

Whitney decided she would get into Eckhart's head since Magneto's helmet wouldn't allow her to get in. She closed her eyes again and began to concentrate on Eckhart. She finally found him. Images of what her blood was going to be used for popped up in her head on more frightening then the other. The images all stopped and she let out a loud scream.

Having the subdernal govener in the back of her neck prevented her from keeping the connection longer. She sighed and gave into the darkness that she had been fighting for so long. There was no more she could do they had already gotten her blood.

**** The School****

Both teams sat in the professor's office preparing for the second rescue mission.

"Okay guys, since we don't have a clue where Whitney is we will have to have a distraction. Since they are expecting the Mutant X team to come after her Brennan, Jeremy, Emma and Shalimar you guys will be decoys. You will go in and cause a distraction, .." he was cut off by Brennan.

"Adam I don't want to play decoy I want to go in there and help her."

"Brennan I know you want to help your sister and this will work for sure." When he finally received a nod from Brennan he went on. "While you guys are distracting the guard we will get Jesse and Aurora to the computer room to find out where exactly they have Whitney." Adam paused seeing that they were still listening to him.

"Jesse then tells everyone else that is left where Whitney is and they get her out."

The plan sounded like it would work so everyone agreed to it and headed for the helix. The first part of the plan had already started. The four members of Mutant X had made there way into one part of the building while Jesse and Aurora made their way to the control room. They finally found it after 20minutes of searching. Jesse quickly took out the two guards sitting at the computers. He took a seat at one of the computers and started typing away. He searched the database for a Whitney Mulwray but found no results. He then searched about Hybrids and still found nothing. He was starting to get frustrated. He searched for any new projects and still found nothing.

"Damn It!" he said, "there has to be something. They must have another computer where they store all there projects and mutants data." He spun in his chair thinking and saw a door in the far corner of the room. Next to the door he saw a pad with numbers on it, which meant the door was locked. 'No problem' he thought as he got up and headed towards the door.

He phased and made his way through the door. As he had thought he found another computer he again took a seat in front of a computer. Breaking past the security without having anyone detect him. "Finally" he said as he gained access to the computer data... within seconds he had found everything he needed.

"Adam" He said into his comm. link.

"Yeah Jesse"

"Found her, she is on the very lowest floor in a room to the far corner of the building. There are only five rooms down there."

"Great work Jesse, did you find what they wanted with her blood?"

"I didn't have time to look but I did download the database so we can look at it when we get out of here."

"Great work the rest of the guys are already on there way... I want you and Aurora to go help Brennan, Emma, Jeremy and Shalimar."

"You got it Adam."

Cyclops and Logan made their way to the lowest floor of the building. They made it down to what looked like the basement of the building. They walked down further onto the floor and made their way to the rooms.

Logan took the first room to his right; he glanced over at Scott and then slowly opened the door. He sighed all he saw were boxes that were waiting to be opened. He shook his head when Scott looked at him in question.

"Nothing" Scott nodded and opened the door he was at... he to sighed giving Logan the same response... "Two down three to go" they checked the third room then made there way to the fourth. "I smell something," Logan said.

"What?" Scott asked quickly leaving the last room he was going to check and made his way towards the door Logan was at.

Logan sniffed the air once again. "Blood" he said opening the door. They found what they were looking for.

The room itself was empty except for the body that lay still on the floor. Both men ran in the direction of the body.

"Whitney" Scott said touching her arm to turn her over. He pulled away as soon as his hand made contact with her bare arm. "Ouch" he said for the first time noticing the blood on her arm.

"Did you see anything in the other rooms that we can put her in to carry her out?" he asked turning to Logan.

"No, but I can take her" he said as he walked towards them. "I'll heal." Not arguing Scott let him pick Whitney up. Logan let out a low hiss us the blood covered his arms. "Let's get out of here"

On their way out they ran into several GSA's blocking the way to the helix. "Man just what we need." Logan placed Whitney down and stood into a fighting position letting his claws out. Scott stood next to him, also ready to fight.

Two of the four agents made their ways towards Scott while the other two went at Logan. The agents were taken care of with no trouble. They both turned towards the body. As Logan was about to pick Whitney up more agents came into the room. This time eight of them.

One by one the agents were taken down but more came. The two were now greatly outnumbered. Just as they were about to be taken down by the many agents a blast came from behind Logan and Scott.

The men both got up off the floor first thing they noticed was that they were the only ones standing. They turned around and saw Whitney leaning against the wall trying to stand.

"Hey guys" she smiled almost falling.

"Come on lets go" Logan said picking her up.

"I can walk" she protested knowing she couldn't.

"Oh you think you can" Logan gave her a knowing look. She shook her head gave up not wanting to argue.

They finally made it to the Helix to find everybody there already.

****

As soon as the Helix landed Whitney was taken to the lab. When they entered the lab they found the professor there and a tub filled with some gel like material.

"Quick place her in here" The professor said pointing to the tub beside him.

Logan put Whitney in it with out questioning.

"What is it?" Brennan asked walking further into the lab.

"It's the only thing we know of that her blood does not melt. Jean created from several plastics and metals to help bandage Whitney's wounds when she gets hurt." He paused.

"Ok I want the guys out of here while the girls take care of her for a few minutes in the mean time why don't you all go get cleaned up for lunch" The guys quickly left leaving the girls to do there work.

Aurora walked to a closet in the lab and pulled out a set of gray pants and a sweater. The girls worked fast to change Whitney out of her bloodied clothe and cleaned her up.

Storm went out and got the professor and Adam, they had waited outside the room patiently while the girls did their thing.

Adam moved towards Whitney who was now lying on the bed still unconscious. He hooked her up to an IV and placed an oxygen mask on her mouth incase she was having difficulty breathing. He then went on checking for any broken bones and was thankful to find none.

"The only thing wrong with her that I know of right now is the lack of rest and all the cut."

"So she will be OK?" Shalimar asked.

"You can tell Brennan she should be ok, give her at least a day of rest." He told her knowing he was the reason she asked. She gave him a smile and walked out of the room fallowed by the two other women.
