After a while of driving Andy decided to ask her mom something.
"Mom, are you still mad at dad?" Andy asked her mother over the roar of the motorcycle.
"What? I can't....." Theressa stopped in mid sentence and used telepathy to talk.
What did you say? I couldn't hear you over the motorcycle. I asked if you were still mad at dad?
Why do you ask?
Because your scar is still red and I could hear you yelling around the corner. Besides I was standing right behind you for most of the fight.
No. I'm not mad. I'm just frustrated. I can't get a lock on your sister. I'm worried, afraid, upset and tired. Besides I hate it when your father tries to tell me not to do something or to wait and do it later.
We could have gone with the guys.
No, I wanted to take you on this ride. There was nothing that could stop me from doing it. Hold on for a sec. Theressa pushed the axilarly button. With in thirty minutes they ran into snow. Pretty soon, Theressa knew, it would become difficult to drive. Theressa put on the brakes.
Why are we stopping?
We're only slowing down. If you're in axilurity thrusters and you put on the brakes you go back to normal speed.
Why are we slowing down?
Because, it's getting to hard to drive that fast in the snow. I'm trying to find something that could help us out. I'm going to push a button. Hang on tight. I don't know what it can do. Theressa warned as she pushed a bright blue button. Suddenly the motorcycle sprouted two rocket boosters, one on each side of the bike. The Norton lifted off the ground and shot off like a rocket.
Andy, you okay? Theressa asked. Andy had tighted her grip around her mother's waist when they took off.
Yeah, this is fun. Hey I think I see the Blackbird up ahead.
Hey, Cyke. Open the ramp. We're coming in. Just as the ramp opened. Theressa caught up to the jet. Theressa used her telekinetic powers to land the bike safely on the ramp. Scott rose the ramp when he knew they where in.
"Cyke, do you have to have rocket boosters on everything you fix or update?" Theressa asked.
"Do you always have to be so picky?" Scott teased back. Andy was now buckled into the seat next to her father and behind Wolverine. Theressa was standing between but yet, also behind Wolverine and Scott's seats. She had her left hand on Scott's chair and her right had on Wolverine's.
"Where's Auntie Jean Uncle Cyke?" Andy asked.
"She wanted to stay home with Storm and Xavier. Besides she didn't want to get in our way."
"Where are we Scott?" Theressa asked.
"In Alaska." Scott told Black Fox.
" Where do you think they're hiding?" Wolverine asked. Theressa looked out the window in front of her.
"There." She pointed to the tallest glacier. Scott stirred the Blackbird towards the glacier and turned on the cloak detector. Suddenly the glacier turned into a castle like building.
"I told you I knew Apocalypse better than anyone." Theresssa said as she turned her head around to look at Chris.
"Okay, fine. So you know what you're up against. Big deal." Chris said. Theressa rolled her eyes and turned back around. Scott landed the jet a few feet away from the glacier nearest to the building. AS they walked off of the jet Wolverine turned to Cyclops.
"We can't just walk in like......" Wolverine never finished his sentence because Theressa cut him off.
"Like we own the place. I know. That's why you and I are going in. If what I think is true then Apocalypse know that we are alive becasue Jasmine probably all ready told him. So to make sure we die this time he will have Mystique and Sabertooth waiting for us. We will make sure the place is clear while you guys crawl threw the vents and find Mian."
"Why do we always have to crawl threw the vents?" Cyclops complained.
"It's either that or swim in the freezing waters below." Black fox informed Cyclops
"I'll take the vents, but why do you and Wolverine get to be the diversion?"
"Because Scott," Theressa said. "I think our welcoming party is out to kill us instead of capture us." With that every one left the jet to do their job.
Once they where in their places Theressa began to talk telepathically.
Everyone understands the plan right? Theressa asked.
Yes! Chris replied.
Everyone in place?
Yes. We are in the vent right above you. Andy said. Okay. We're off. Theressa said as she tapped Wolverine on the shoulder.
Coast looks clear. Wolverine stepped into the light of the hallway. The two of them walked (Theressa actually limped) in the quiet hall for sometime until Logan stopped dead in his tracks. He had gotten a sniff of a pair of mutants and knew exactly who they were.
Don't move Fox. We've got company. Just then a voice from behind began to speak.
"Well, if it isn't the runt and the babe. I thought I had finished you off with that bomb."
Wolverine and Fox turned around to see Sabertooth and the ever so deadly Mystique. Black Fox's Scar went from gray to a fiery red.
"How many times do I have to tell you not to call me that? I'm not playing Mrs. nice guy anymore. I will knock that block, that you call a head, clear off your neck if that is what it takes to get you to stop calling me that."
"Oh but mom, you wouldn't do that in front of me would yah?" Theressa saw that Mystique had turned into Andy.
"Don't you even play with me Mystique." Theressa walked over and stood right in front of Mystique. Theressa was about a half of a head taller than Mystique with her boots off but with them on she was a full head taller. "First of all you come in to my home, impersonate me and capture one of my most prestos daughters. You have no room to play games missy."
"Is the babe fired up and ready to go?"
"I'm not even getting started with you bub."
Kid calm down! Let me take fusible and you take blue lips over there. Theressa spun on her heals and glared at Wolverine.
Calm down? Calm down? My Mian is in here somewhere being tortured by Apocalypse and you expect me to calm down? I don't think so bub! Let me go at furl and you go after blue lips.
Theressa sun back around and kicked Sabertooth in the gut then fired five full blast lasers at him. She then got her Psi knife out and just as she was about to sink it into Sabertooth's heart, She felt a hand on her wrist.
What know Logan?
Creed is a killer and by even trying to kill him, he's turning you into a killer too. I don't want that.
He has a healing factor remember? He'll come back to fight us again no matter what I do to him.What about you? You've tried to kill him many times.
Yeah, well, I'm a special case. I don't care if he has a healing factor or not. Killing someone or thing in this case is taking a life and I don't want you to become a killer like I was.
Theressa relaxed, retracted her psi knife, and stepped back to move on to Mystique. This would be the only time she let any man fight her battles for her.
A few moments later Chris contacted Theressa, threw the telepathic report that she had everyone connected to.
T, how are y'all doing?
Fine, I'm beating on Mystique and Wolverine is working on Sabertooth. How 'bout you?
We are at the vent latch in the cell room. We got Mian's attention. She knows we're here. Although she's not in the best of shape.
How bad?
She's got bruises, Cuts and welts on her arms and necks. Andy says that she can't hear Mian's thoughts or feel her pain.
It must have shocked her. Is she standing?
Yes, but she looks like she is in real pain.
Stay put until I tell you other wise. Got it?
Got it.
Logan, rap it up. Mian's not in good shape. Theressa said.
Wolverine nodded his head and ran his claws into Sabertooth's chest. Theressa's psi knife was out once again and she stabbed Mystique in the gut. Both Sabertooth and Mystique fell to the ground and lay in a puddle of blood.
"Come on we better go while their out. At least we can get a head start. That wound won't keep Sabertooth down for long." Wolverine said as he ran and Black Fox flew the hall until they came to the cell room. The door was locked but that didn't stop the Black Fox! She telekinetically threw door in and flew in as if she owned the place.
"Apocalypse you have something that belongs to me!" Theressa yelled with Wolverine right behind her, claws and all. Theressa saw Chris Andy and Scott in the vent.
Now? Chris asked.
No, not yet. Theressa replied.
"Black Fox." Apocalypse said.
"Mom? Unc. Claws? Be careful!" Mian warned weakly.
" Just hang tight Mian." Wolverine said. "Your mom will deal with this over grown beluga whale."
"Release my daughter Now Apocalypse!"
"I would but she's engaged to me."
"Not Jasmine you moron! I want Mian!"
"I'm afraid I can't allow that to happen. She's mine."
Now! Theressa said telepathically. Chris, Andy, and Scott fell from the vent and landed next to Wolverine.
"Don't you get tired of capturing the X-men? You know your going to lose." Andy said as she moved to her mother's side.
"Wolverine.........." Theressa began but was cut off by Wolverine's reply. "
Already ahead of yah kid." Wolverine cut the bars and picked Mian up. He walked over to Theressa and handed Mian to her.
"Get these kids out of here now!" Theressa didn't argue. She took to the air using her teke powers to fly, with Mian in her arms and Andy on her back, they fled for their lives. Just as they were clear of the room, Cyclops, Wolverine, and Chris started to go at Apocalypse.
"This was too easy." Andy said.
"I know. As soon as I get y'all in the jet, I'm going to get a piece of the action."
"No mom you can't!" Mian exclaimed.
"Why not?"
"Why do you think Unc. Claws sent you to get us out of here? He doesn't want you to get killed. None of us do."
"Wow. Isn't that a toughing?" Someone said from up a head. Suddenly Sabertooth came out of nowhere. Theressa flew right into him.
"You can't take no fro an answer. can you?" Theressa said as Mian, Andy and her got back on their feet.
"You girls go to the jet and stay there. I'm going to finish off furball here." Andy and Mian looked at each other then at their mother. "I'll be fine. I'll make it. Now go!"
After Andy and Mian left Theressa started to beat on Sabertooth. She did a one-eighty spin and kicked him where it hurts. Sabertooth fell to his knees but she wasn't finished yet. She took her psi knife and her hand knife and stabbed them into the back of Sabertooth's head. He fell to the ground and landed on his face. Theressa picked him up and slung him over her shoulder. She could barely carry him with her own muscle, so she used her teke powers to help her. Hopefully, Andy and Mian made it to the jet safely. She could only hope and pray. When Theressa and the unconscious Sabertooth boarded the jet, Theressa was surprised to see Chris, Scott, and Logan already on board as well. Andy and Mian announced Theressa's arrival. "
Daddy. Mom's back! Hey isn't that Sabertooth?" Andy asked as Theresssa dropped him on the floor.
"Fox what is he doing here?" Wolverine growled.
"I stabbed him in the back of the head with my Psi knife and my hand knife." Everyone could see the hand knife that was still wedged into the back of the furball's skull.
"More than likely he lost his memory." Theressa said. "So I am going to drop him off somewhere in the middle of the Sahara desert."
Chris took his seat next to Mian and behind Andy, who was behind Scott's chair. Sabertooth was put in the very back seat, where Wolverine could keep an eye on him. Wolverine sat strait across from Sabertooth and Scott was still standing up.
"Wolverine, are you just going to sit there and let Theressa get away with this?"
"Get away with what?" Wolverine growled. "She only did the same thing that I have done repedatly. I'm staying back here just in case furball wakes up. He and I will duke it out. Relax Cyke, I have it under control. Although when we get home I am going to need a good beer." Scott finally took his place at the wheel next to Theressa and with in minutes the Blackbird was off to the Sahara desert.
