ANOUNCEMENT: I just got AIM (yay!) and I go by Agent G v01(agentgv01) (I tried every other variation of 'agent-g' was taken, at least the really cool ones) so don't be afraid to IM me.

BlackRoseApocalyps: Well anyways thanks, secondly LOL yeah I know I had to write him that way when he was normal to make him such a good bad guy (yes I know oxymoron) it wouldn't make sense otherwise, hope you liked what I have planned. Oh before I forget, the name blackrose, did you get that from the .Hack anime/game series? Cause there's a character called Black Rose in it, just wondering.

Red Witch: You have no idea how bad, believe me it can and will get worse. (you know the whole darkest before the dawn thing and a few surprises along the way)

yae yang: Yeah I know it was a little too easy but I was running out of ideas, so I took the easier way this time and I know I try and make Sinister as bad as he can be.

CHAPTER 10: YOU WIN SOME YOU LOSE SOME

New York Tunnels

Where we last left them the battle against the Lizard had just started.

The Lizard had left right at Logan. Logan had dodged and was doing his best not to claw him to ribbons but it wasn't exactly easy to do, since he WAS trying to claw Logan to ribbons.

Then he went for Kurt who teleported out of his range.

Spider-Man also jumped in front of the Lizard to try and get the his attention. Which he did unfortunately for him.

The Lizard launched a furry of clawed swipes, tail trashes, and even a few bites. "Whoa there scaley, easy on the biting! Who do you think you are Tyson?" He said to him.

"Where's the Crocodile Hunter when you need him." Then Spider-Man jumped over him and landed behind him. "Then again I don't think even HE would want to deal with you."

Then he was dodging all of the Lizard's attacks as best he could. "Although giant reptiles are his thing, maybe we should have given him a call, this would have been one heck of an episode."

"Hey ugly over here!" Logan yelled. The Lizard turned its feral eyes to Logan and crouched ready to attack. "Anytime Hank!" Logan yelled never taking his eyes of the Lizard.

Hank had been trying to get a clean shot off, but it wasn't that easy. "I'm trying but he's too fast I might miss, and we can't take the chance to lose any of the serum, we might need more than one dose."

The Lizard had lunged at Logan, but Spider-Man leaped on its back and pounded on his head, before being thrown into an old rusted metal railing near the edge of what used to be a subway platform.

Logan quickly went over and picked him up. "I thought you said you wanted him in one piece?"

"Oh don't worry about hitting him, he can TAKE it, and dish it out, I just don't want you to use your claws because if you take anything off, it might not grow back when he turns human again." Spider-Man said to him, before they both jumped away from the Lizard who tried to pounce on them.

"Well that's just great." Logan growl.

"Yeah I know, it's never easy." Spider-Man said back. Now he tried a few shots with his webbing but the Lizard easily dodged it.

Kurt had teleported in front on the Lizard and as soon as he lunged for Kurt he teleported of few feet away, then when he attacked Kurt teleported again, trying to wear it out.

Scott had slowly gotten up and was shaking the stars from his eyes. When his vision cleared he saw Logan, Kurt and Spider-Man doing their best to fight off the Lizard but also not trying to harm him too much.

He also saw Beast trying to aim the dart gun, but they were moving too fast for him to get a clear shot.

The Lizard then lunged again at Logan, but caught him. They both sailed off the platform and landed some fifteen feet, almost to the other side of the tunnel. Logan had landed on his back and The Lizard was on him clawing at him.

Then he went in to bite Logan's face off, but Wolverine threw up his arm and The Lizard bite into it. Logan cried out in pain, but luckily with his adamantium his jaws didn't bite through the entire arm like it would have if it was a normal person's arm.

Scott saw his moment to attack and blasted The Lizard when he was to busy with Logan to notice. Scott's optic blast sailed towards The Lizard, it released its hold on Wolverine's arm and looked up in time to see the blast hit him.

The blast carried him into the side of wall of the raised platform. Spider- Man took this moment to leap over the Lizard, he twisted in the air and fired both his web shooters at him.

By the time he landed The Lizard was almost completely webbed up, except for the head and neck. "Hank now!" Spider-Man shouted.

Hank took aim and fired the serum in the dart into the Lizard's neck. It roared as it was hit, and began the thrash and was managing to start to tear the webs. Hank saw this and quickly reloaded and shot again, this time it hit in one of its arms that had managed to free.

The Lizard was soon free of the webs.

"Hank I thought that stuff was supposed to work?" Logan yelled at him, clutching his bloody arm.

"Give it time." Hank said. "We may not have any time." Logan shot back.

The Lizard was done ripping off the webs and was slowly stalking forward, when it suddenly pitched foreword and fell to its knees. Its clawed hands went to its head and let out a roar.

Then slowly the scales started to reseed into the body, and the green changed into a paler color. Hair was starting to grow out of the head, and the left arm was shrinking, then it seemed to go into the body.

After about a minute where once the mighty Lizard stood now was Dr. Curt Connors. He slowly pushed himself off the ground and looked around. He didn't recognize where he was but did see someone he did know.

"Spider-Man!" He said with a smile. "I take it you helped me out again."

"Hey what are friends for." Peter said and helped the doc up.

"I guess you should start to fill me in on a few things, like who your friends are?" Connors said looking at them.

"That Doc is a LONG story, but I'll tell you on the way back." Peter told him.

They walked back to the Jet, and Peter filled him in on the X-Men and why he needed his their help. Connors and Hank talked a lot on the way there, especially since Hank had gone through something that Connors had gone through.

He actually agreed to allow Hank help him, since he didn't know if or when the Lizard would reemerge again. He was also fascinated that Logan's arm had healed.

"I've been searching my entire life for that kind of regeneration ability, and you have it naturally?" Curt was completely dumfounded.

Logan just shrugged. Connor's just had this look on his face like he was the world's biggest idiot.

Hank placed a hand on his shoulder. "Don't worry about it, I send you some of the data I have on Logan, maybe you can use it."

"Thanks Hank I could use it." Curt said to him, feeling a little better.

Spider-Man had gone into the Jet and got the travel bag he had brought with him and came back out. "So Doc what he to take you home? I bet the wife and your son are missing you."

"Oh God! Martha and Billy, they must be going out of their minds with worry." Curt frantically said.

"Yeah so I think the sooner we go the sooner they stop climbing the walls." Peter then noticed to looks he was getting. "Yeah I know spider, climb I get it, the pun wasn't intentional."

"Well after I get him home I'll give you guys a call and see how the other guys did with Michael." Spider-Man then grabbed Connors and he shot out a web line.

Since the Jet was parked on the top of building it was easy to get the doc homes from web slinging over the city.

"Well come on, we better go and check in on the others." Logan said and they all got in the jet and headed for home.

BACK AT THE MANSION

While the others were away Amanda's parents had gone out. They said they had a lot to do, first they had to get the insurance claims settled, then they needed some new clothes. Although Amanda's mother had said to their daughter it was well past time for her father to get some new clothes.

They also needed to make an appointment to start looking for a new house, since there was no way they could ever go back to their old home. Even if they had fixed it up, the memory of what had happened would always be there.

So Amanda was with the girls hanging out, though truth be told she was worried about Kurt. She knew the things he did and had to do, but she wished she could have gone with him, because she hated the waiting.

"Hello Earth to Amanda?" She heard a voice say, she snapped out of her thoughts to see Tabitha, Amara, Jubilee and Rahne looking at her. "Oh sorry I was somewhere else." She quietly said to them.

"Don't worry blue boy will come back, he's gone through worse then this, trust me." Tabitha said.

Amanda nodded her head, she did know. She had heard of some of stories from Kurt and a lot more from the others, with a few things he obviously took out. She wasn't mad at that, she knew he didn't want her to worry, but she still did.

"Hey guys the Velocity is back." Jamie said to them as he poked his head in.

They got up and went to the hanger, and where surprised to see Vincent being carried out by Rogue.

"Guys what happened?" Tabitha asked.

"We had Michael but we got jumped by Sinister and Lucas." Jean told them.

"What did you say about Lucas?" Xavier had said. They all turned around to see him there, none of them had noticed his arrival.

"Lucas was with Sinister Professor." Jean told him with regret. He only nodded and turned to Rogue. "Take Vincent to the medical ward Rogue, Beast and the others are not back yet, so try and make him comfortable."

Rogue nodded and quickly carried Vincent to the medical ward. Jamie had decided to follow and see if he could help.

"Charles there's more you need to know." Ororo gravely said to him. "Sinister took Michael with him, and they not only had the metal spheres that Magneto uses, but I heard him say 'welcome to the Acolytes'."

Xavier and the others still there did not like that bit of news.

"Ya mean that psycho Sinister is working for Magneto now?" Tabitha yelled out. "Great like we didn't need that?" she said angrily and threw her hands up into the air.

"Not to mention now Magneto has Lucas and a vampire on his team." Amara said.

"Great two more acolytes to face off against, can things get any worse?" Jubilee asked them.

The hanger doors suddenly opened and the Blackbird flew in. Jubilee groaned, "Please tell me there isn't going to be anymore bad news."

The ramp opened up and out walked Logan, Scott, Hank, and Kurt.

"I trust you have good news?" Xavier asked them.

"Yeah we cured Dr. Connors and Spider-Man took him home, he said he's call us later for an update on Morbius." Scott said. He then noticed the looks the others shared with each other as he said the name Morbius.

Logan noticed it too. "What happened?"

Ororo filled them in on everything, Morbius, Sinister, Lucas and what had happened to Vincent. When Hank heard of what happed to Vincent he asked in great detail everything they could recall, then immediately went to the medical ward to check on him.

The others pretty much went on their separate way, the adults going off alone to talk about the recent developments. Amanda took the time to go to Kurt.

"Hey are you okay?" She asked him, looking him over slightly for anything hurt.

"Nein, I vasn't easy but ve got out in one piece." He smiled at her.

"I'm glad." She then moved up beside him and wrapped her arm around him, he then placed his arm over her shoulder and wrapped his tail around her waist. She gently brushed his tail with her hand, she knew it was sensitive and that if she was gentle enough he enjoyed the feeling.

They walked off together.

LATER THAT NIGHT (9:00 pm to be exact)

Hank had finished his examination of Vincent and went to tell Rogue and Jamie the news. Both of them hadn't left his side while he checked him out. He also gave Rogue, Ororo and Jean when they came in something for the headache Lucas had given them.

"Well he'll make a full recovery." Hank said to them smiling. He saw the relieved looks on their faces. "I'm not sure exactly what happened to him, but from what I can tell he used up a lot of his energy in a short time. Plus his body is showing signs of stress, a lot like the kind you see when people are exposed to too much g-force."

"Ya think his power did somethin' to him?" Rogue asked.

"Most likely." Hank said. "We should let him rest, he will most likely wake up tomorrow, and you two need to get some rest it's late enough as it is."

They both reluctantly left, but not before Rogue kissed Vincent on the forehead before she left.

Hank smiled at her shoe of affection. For the longest time he was afraid he wouldn't have been able to help her, when she and Vincent started going out, he wasn't sure if their relationship could survive with their 'limits'.

But now that was all changed and he was glade for it. They seemed good for each other. Hank went back to finish up few things, then he would call it a night aw well.

Rogue and Jamie went up the elevator to the main floor. They passed the living room and saw most of the students sitting around the TV watching a movie.

Kurt and Amanda were sitting together arms linked, and she resting on her head on his shoulder, and she could see his arm over her shoulder. She was so glad things had worked out for her brother.

She saw a few of the other couples also, Jubilee and Bobby, Jean and Scott, and Tabitha and Sam. Tabitha who was taking the initiative and was on Sam's lab with her arms around his neck, not that he seemed to really mind.

She saw all this and a part of her wished Vincent was up.

Scott noticed them at first. "Hey how Vincent doing?"

"He'll be alright he just needs ta rest for the night, he should be up tomorrow." She replied.

"Well at least that's some good news." Bobby said.

"Ya well ah think ah need to turn in early, it's been that kind of a day." She said which it had been.

"Don't I know it." Scott said to himself and started to rub the back of his head where he hit the wall. This had been one of those good day/bad day kind of thing, and was hoping things would get better tomorrow.
