X-Men: Evolution and its respective characters are © Marvel, Again I do not own them (But I sure as hell wish I did)

Summary: When the X-Men arrive home they find that everyone is missing. HOMe and Vile meet for the first time.

A.N.: Did you forget about Vile? I hope not….

Booyah: Feel free to do that, but don't go overboard an attempt to commandeer the story like a certain someone… As for Lilo's powers she can cause an object to immediately erupt with kinetic energy, thus they explode forward in motion with a rocket like show of energy. As for appearances the will have the first half of the third FIC pretty much dedicated to HOMe making Gantu look like the buffoon he is and snacking with 625 (love that guy!). Sorry to make you wait so long, good news is the end is only about 8 chapters away now.

Chapter 12

Unwelcome HOMe-comings

As soon as HOMe entered the mansion he felt something was wrong. The usually feeling of youthful energy and joy was not present. His instincts guided him as he ran to Kitty's room where he would always find Remy or Rogue, but neither were their. He checked Artisan's room and there was no sign of her. Next he ran to check Hank's room, he was gone too. Finally in panic he checked Tabby's room, she was missing as well, but he could see the pheromones another had left behind. He didn't like these pheromones, they felt wrong almost as evil as the strange man named Sinister. He knew though he would have to follow them and follow them he did.

He followed the "scent" straight into the Common Room. The lights normally lit were dimmed, but they did not impede his sight, he saw clearly the being in front of him. A seven foot monster whose exoskeletal covering was similar to his own, but colored in a swirling black and blue. A human head rested on the shoulders, it's piercing blue eyes and black as night hair only added to it frightfulness. The monster however was not what concerned HOMe, it was who it held in it's great clawed hands; Tabby.

"HOMe. Interesting name for a creature who was born of united minds. This creature, you would say you care, yes?" It' voice obviously male. "Why care about such a fragile, pointless being. It can't even begin to fathom the peace of the hive." He tossed Tabby at HOMe, who leapt to catch her.

-You pay for hurting HOMe's family.- HOMe set Tabby in a chair. –HOMe make you pay.-

"Tsk, tsk, tsk." the monster said. "we haven't even been introduced yet. I am Vile, general appointed by the Grand Empress herself. You are an abomination to our genetic structure."

-Vile, pay for hurting HOMe's family.- HOMe turned towards Vile, the two crimson streaks upon his head glowing like fire.

"Don't you even care where everyone else is?" HOMe froze as he heard the laugh in Vile's voice.

-Where HOMe's family?-

"Hidden and if you want them to live you will surrender yourself three days from now." Vile circled HOMe smiling triumphantly. "There is an abandoned 'warehouse' at the edge of this forsaken city. There we will meet, when you arrive I will free them."

HOMe stared at the monster named Vile, he could feel the truth. Vile would release his family, he had no choice he wouldn't let them suffer because of him. –HOMe will meet Vile. Vile wins, Hive wins.-

"Excellent!" Vile put his hand on HOMe's shoulder and almost immediately pulled back. "Sad little puppy aren't you?" Then he left HOMe to care for Tabitha.

==================

Vile was pleased, but disturbed by what he had achieved and seen. He had wondered why his connection to HOMe disappeared a few hours earlier and went to investigate. What he saw was an opportunity he couldn't pass up, all of the truly dangerous mutants were gone, leaving the younger generations and one adult ripe for the picking. No had a fighting chance and his warriors abducted them flawlessly.

His mind, however was troubled by what he had seen when he touched HOMe. The abomination had caused him to see it's own birth, but if that was so why did he see it from the host's eyes and why did it seem so familiar. He tried to brush the feeling of familiarity away over the hours he waited, but he couldn't it was to deeply placed into his mind. He would obsess over it soon, he could feel it in his bones.

When he arrived at the lair he congratulated his warriors on their second successful kidnapping. They had taken the others when they arrived, right out from under HOMe's watchful eyes. He went straight to the leader, if he couldn't answer the questions that had arisen from his contact with HOMe, then this mutants surely could. He opened the door the lead to the Professor's chamber.

"Good evening Charles Xavier. I am your captor, Vile and you will answer my questions."
