Xavier and Magneto were feeling the sudden change in the air neither
man knew where it was coming from but Charles had a pretty good idea. As
hard as he might he still could not get a lock on his x-men, more
specifically Storm. Breathing was coming harder for both men. They had been
there since the wee hours of the morning. For Eric it had been longer.
Suddenly they heard a voice from above.
"Scott, can you blast a hole in this thing? My lightning bolts won't even dent it." Storm said into her com-link. Cyclops looked down.
"I don't want to hurt you." Scott replied. Suddenly several flashes of lightning showed Scott where to fire.
"Where's Pyro?" Siren finally had the courage to ask.
"Your friend," Mystique said her face still facing Cyclops. "Is upstairs."
Scott's head came up. He knew that it was unlike Mystique to tell the enemy where someone was unless she had eliminated them.
"You didn't." Cyclops said as his glare meet that of Mystique's yellow eyes.
"Professor are you down here?" Storm asked as she jumped down into
the cell below.
"Yes and we have a visitor."
Storm landed gracefully and walked over to help Xavier.
"Who? Mystique is here, yes, but who else?"
"Me."
Storm's fists clutched at the sound of Magneto's voice. In her mind there had been too many battles and so many fights to react in any other way.
"It's all right Storm." Xavier said.
He could feel her anger and hear her thoughts. Then another thought came to him. It was not that of Storm but of Pyro. It was very weak and yet strong at the same time. Storm picked up Xavier in her arms and started another wind current to take them back to the platform. When they finally did Xavier asked Mystique
"What have you done?"
"Whatever do you mean Xavier?"
"You know exactly what I MEAN." Xavier said with rage building in his voice.
"He would have died anyway."
"What?" Storm said looking at Scott.
His hand was on his visor. Storm had never seen him so angry before. It was probably because his girlfriend was out in the middle of nowhere and she was under a lot of presser.
"No one has told you yet?"
No one answered.
"No? Well allow me to tell you. My way of thinking is if we can't co-exist with the humans peacefully, and face it Charles we never will, why don't you just kill everyone."
"That's not the way to go about it. Storm, take the children upstairs. Find Pyro. He is still alive. Help him as much as you can." Xavier said.
Storm handed Xavier to Scott, who put him in the wheelchair that was at the Cerebro machine. As storm and the others left Xavier continued to speak.
"My only fear is that it is too late for him and for us."
"Scott, can you blast a hole in this thing? My lightning bolts won't even dent it." Storm said into her com-link. Cyclops looked down.
