As promised, here's more! Now to quote myself: Roll the fic! Disclaimer: If I *yawn* owned these guys *yawn* I wouldn't be writing fanfiction.

Chapter Ten

Trouble At The Movies

Kurt and Amanda were on a double date with Scott and Jean. They had just gotten out of Scott's convertible to go into the theater when they heard the familiar sound of Avalanche using his earth shaking powers.

"Whats going on?" Amanda asked as the ground trembled beneath her feet.

"Lance," Scott growled as he, Kurt, and Jean raced off in the direction of the tremors.

Amanda watched them for a few moments then she took off after them.

"Andrew stop!" Jennifer screamed for the umpteenth time as she tried to pull Nightmare's hands away from Lance.

The warehouse was falling down around them, due to Avalanche's tremors.

Nightmare tried to break Lance's concentration by ramming the youth's head against the iron door. It worked! Lance fell unconscious against Andrew's shoulder and the tremors stopped.

Kurt, Scott and Jean spotted Lance's jeep parked outside of the warehouse.

"Was?" Kurt exclaimed as the earthquakes suddenly ceased.

"What just happened?" Amanda panted as she jogged up behind the X-Men.

The door of the warehouse was trembling slightly.

Jean reached out with her mind and probed the warehouse mentally for life forms.

"Lance and that new girl from school are in there," Jean opened her eyes and told the others. "Lance is unconscious and the girl is really scared."

"What are we waiting for?" Scott barked as he strode up the the warehouse door.

The X-Men's leader opened the door and was surprised when Lance fell out in a heap. He glanced up the steps just in time to catch a glimpse of Nightmare fleeing upstairs.

"Hey!" Scott yelled as he leapt past lance and ran up the steps.

A wooden beam connected with Cyclop's face as he reached the threshold of the second floor. His sunglasses were knocked from his face and his optic blasts blew out one of the walls before he closed his eyes.

"Jean! Kurt! Help me!" he cried.

Jennifer rushed at her blind victim and kicked him back down the stairs, right into Kurt and Jean.

Seizing this advantage, Jennifer ran out one of the back ways of the warehouse.

"Vait!" Kurt shouted and he teleported past Jean and into the dining room. As soon as he had reappeared, the elf ran through the building after Jennifer.

Jean helped Scott to his feet and gave him back his shades.

"Thanks," he replied as they both took after Kurt and Jennifer.

"How did he do that?" Jennifer thought to herself as she ran down back alleys and streets to try and shake her pursuer, but wherever she ran he stayed behind her.

Kurt was gaining on the girl as she ran down the little known side streets of Bayville. When he finally realized where she was heading, he teleported in front of her and grabbed her.

Jennifer screamed when a cloud of smoke appeared in front of her. The cloud smelled of brimstone and she soon realized that she was caught.

"Get off of me you freak!" she screamed, kicking out and trying to escape from Nightcrawler's grip.

"Not so fast frauline," he told her firmly.

Jennifer continued to struggle as Scott and Jean ran up.

"Where's Amanda?" Kurt asked them.

"She's making sure Lance is okay," Jean told him.

Jennifer freed one of her hands and pointed to Scott.

"Freeze!" she cried, using her power to paralyze the X-Man.

"Scott!" Jean screamed as she stared at her statue-like comrade.

Kurt momentarily loosened his grip and Jennifer used that moment to elbow him in the gut and run off.

My stupid computer was messing around with the font stuff so the first sentence of my introduction is a little different. That is if my computer doesn't mess with it again.
