Everyone was having fun even Hank and Ororo which the professor wanted them to stay in-charge of everyone. Hank heard Sabretooth's motorcycle coming. "Storm the final one has arrived," he said to Ororo. Ororo smiled.

"Hey Xana do you want to scare the others?," Sabretooth asked through his helmet to her. She smiled at the thought and replied. "Hell Yeah that would be fun." Sabretooth sped up and before the others saw them coming. He pulled a wheelie basically from the entrance/exit of the park past the group. Sabretooth pulled around and stopped the motorcycle.

"Mon ami, what were you thinking on pulling a stunt like that?," asked Remy. Sabretooth took off his helmet to show a toothy-grin. "I only wanted to scare the hell out of you guys."

Remy didn't like that response or almost getting runover either. "Well Remy almost got run down by you, Creed," he stated angerly. Xanaphia couldn't believe what was going on. She took off her helmet, well actually it was Logan's that she borrowed. Pyro gave a thumbs up to Pietro while heading over to talk to Xanaphia. Pietro didn't know what the pyromaniac was doing until it was to late to stop him.

"Hey Sheila I'm glad you finally made it," said St. John. Xanaphia didn't trust him to be this friendly as of now. "What do you want Pyro?," she said coldly. He didn't mind the way she acted towards him, but the gossip about two people he had heard about earlier. He just had to find out if it was true or not. "Just wondering if you were interested in someone."

Xanaphia was taken back by John's question and just walked away from him. Sabretooth and Remy looked at St. John with glares. "Hey mates I was only asking Xanaphia a question," said St. John defensively. Both Remy and Sabretooth weren't buying it and chased after Pyro. "Who ever catches Pyro gets to keep his lighter," yelled Sabretooth.

St. John stopped and looked at Creed. "You can't be serious mate." Sabretooth just smiled and walked towards John. "Well that answers my question," said St.John as he ran from Sabretooth. Sabretooth followed closely behind that made the chase begin. Xanaphia, Pietro, Wanda, Hank, and Ororo were the only ones not in the chase.

"The only point of this is to take away John's lighter," said Wanda not seeing 'Catch Pyro' was fun. "So what, everyone can catch Pyro," stated Xanaphia as John barely dodged the onslaught of Kurt, Piotr, and Evan. Beast nodded in agreement and joined the chase.

Xanaphia left in the opposite direction just as powers were being used. Midnight came upon Xanaphia walking in the woods. "Why aren't you at the party?," cawed Midnight. Xanaphia looked at the raven, "Because basically everyone's chasing St.John and also, started to use their powers to catch him."

Midnight didn't want a total explanation why everyone was chasing Pyro. So, she just flew close by Xanaphia.

On the lower level of the park two people were walking along the trail. "So, you are positive you haven't seen that young Cade around lately." The woman nodded. "Yes, I haven't seen her since that day about a month or two ago Damian," she replied. Damian grew annoyed of not being able to finish a job. "Well do you remember where she lives now?," he asked. She didn't like it when Damian was angry.

"No I do not," she looks up the steep hillside to see Xanaphia. "Up there on the higher level," she pointed out. Damian looked to also see her and smiled evilly. "Good now what should I pose as." The woman remembered her liking someone.

"I would suggest to go as Quicksilver but you already look enough like him," she said with a smile. He thought about it for a few seconds, "Thanks Shalandra now you wait here for me to return." Shalandra watched as he used Pietro's speed and waited to see if he would actually kill her.

Meanwhile the real Pietro finally had a chance to leave in the same direction as Xanaphia. He wished that he knew how to track a person down so he wouldn't get so lost. "Well I hope I find her soon otherwise I will have to use my speed to find her," he said to himself.

Damian walked up behind Xanaphia. "Hey what are you doing out here all alone?," asked 'Pietro'. Xana jumped, turned to see 'Pietro' standing there. "Just to think and to enjoy the view," she lied to him, and turned back to face the horizon. 'Pietro' walked up to her. He glanced down the steep slope and smiled to Shalandra. "It'll be a shame if someone accidently to fall."

Xanaphia looked over at 'Pietro'. "Ok Speedy drop the evil act," she said with a serious tone. He just smiled back and shoved her off. But she quickly grabbed the edge hanging on trying to pull herself up. "Pietro why did you do that," Xanaphia demanded. 'Pietro' quickly pulled out a knife from his back holster. "Why don't you just die already." With that he quickly stabbed her left hand going all the way through.

Pietro heard yelling and followed it quickly to see Xanaphia in trouble. "Get-away-from-her," he shouted quickly and ran over and punched the guy. Damian was wasn't expecting someone to come so he took off with is knife. Pietro helped Xanaphia and noticed her blood-covered hand. "Let me see your hand."

She back away from Pietro. "How can I trust you? Give me one reason why I should believe you," snapped Xanaphia while in pain. He thought for a second before replying. "Because Xanaphia would a prep help you out or even wanna help you out," he said. Xanaphia believed him and held out her hand. Pietro quickly glanced at the wound and ripped off a good size piece of cloth from his shirt.

As he was wrapping the wound as tightly as he could without hurting her. Xanaphia winced at the pain as Pietro was bandaging the wound, and she could tell Pietro didn't want to hurt her at all. "There that;s the best I can do. So, we better get back so McCoy and Storm can help you out," Pietro said as he finished. Xanaphia was already not up to walking back.

"You know what you look ridiculous with only one sleeve on your shirt now," Xana said with a painful smile. Pietro didn't care about his shirt only about getting her medical help. He picked up Xanaphia and ran back to the others.

John gave up since he was the most exhausted one there. Sabretooth had stopped a few minutes before Pyro did. He smelt the scent of blood in the air and looked to see where it's coming from. Pietro stopped running when he noticed the others and walked over with Xanaphia. "What happened Pietro?," asked Scott noticing Xanaphia's blood-covered hand and him with only one sleeve. This had gotten everyone's attention especially Creed's.

"Ask questions later Summers. Right now she needs medical attention," Pietro snapped back at Scott. Hank and Storm tool Xanaphia from Pietro and set her down at a picnic table to check her wound. "Like what did you do Pietro?," asked an angry Kitty.

"I did nothing," Pietro stated. Lance came over angry as hell. "Yeah right Maximoff. You had to have done something because there is nobody else here but all of us." He couldn't believe that Lance would really suspect him to do such a thing. "And everyone was in this area chasing John," stated Evan.

Hank unwrapped Xanaphia's hand while Ororo waited to see how bad the wound was. "Oh my! Ororo tell the others that we're leaving to take her to the hospital," proclaimed Hank, seeing the stab wound. Ororo went and got every bodies attention.

"Beast, my vision's starting to fade," Xanaphia said trying to keep focus on Beast. Hank quickly wrapped her hand back up and carried her to the van. Ororo got in the passenger side to make sure everything's going to be alright.

Sabretooth watched them leave before storming up to Pietro and grabbed his shirt collar. "Who did this to, Esperanza?," he growled. Everybody took a giant step back from the two.

"Esperanza? What does that mean?," Lance asked Kitty. Kitty just shrugged. "Don't ask me Alvers, like, ask Roberto," she replied snot-tingly and walked away from Lance. Roberto walked up to Lance. "Esperanza means hope and I see why he calls her that." Lance was confused but happy he found out what the name meant.

Sabretooth tightened his grip. "Alright Creed since you're the only one who believes me." Sabretooth let Pietro go causing im to fall on the ground. "I saw someone who looks like me. Attacking Xanaphia and he ran off when I punched him. Also, I looked over the side of the slope to see a woman watching what was going on," stated Pietro.

Wanda walked up. "How can that be possible Pietro? Mystique hasn't been around us at all. Only as the school principal," she said. Pietro looked at everyone who looked either angry or confused to hear about another person looking like him. He didn't want to be stared at anymore and the only thing he knew he had to do is run to get away. So, Pietro took off back to the Brotherhood house.
