'Oh, Bobby, I'm so sorry. Please be OK,' thought Rogue as she knelt beside Bobby. Cyclops slowly got up and leaned against the wall for support. He saw Rogue kneeling next to Bobby, a frozen Logan, a wrapped up Storm, and a slumped Xavier. He quickly walked toward Storm, and using his optic beam, he freed her from the web net. After Cyclops freed her, both she and Scott placed an unconscious Xavier onto his wheelchair-which had miraculously remained intact. Storm turned to Cyclops, "Will he be OK?"
"I can still feel a pulse, and his breathing is pretty steady," Cyclops replied slowly. His response did not erase the worry on Storm's face. Suddenly, they heard Rogue's soft sobs. Cyclops was about to walk toward her when Storm placed an arm in front of him.
"I'll handle this," said Storm as Cyclops nodded and turned his attention to the Professor.
"Rogue?" asked Storm as she walked toward the girl.
"Storm, I don't know if Bobby's going to be OK," said Rogue as she continued to look over Bobby, "What if I hurt him or-"
"Rogue, it was an accident. He'll be fine," said Storm firmly. Rogue nodded.
"Here," she said as she handed Rogue a napkin. Rogue took it and wiped her tears away.
"What a headache!" moaned Bobby softly as he placed one of his hands on his head.
Rogue's unhappiness suddenly turned to ecstasy, and she was about to hug Bobby when Storm tapped her shoulder. Rogue turned around and saw Storm handing her a pair of gloves.
"Oh-right," said Rogue sheepishly as she quickly put them on. She turned around and hugged Bobby tightly.
"Oh, Bobby! I'm so glad you're OK!" whispered Rogue.
"What'd you'd think I'd be? Dead?" he replied as he hugged her back.
"No, but something close to it," she said.
"You'd never hurt me like that, Rogue," said Bobby.
"Sorry to break this moment," said Cyclops, "but Logan's stuck in a thick block of ice, the professor's unconscious, and that monster's still running loose."
"Cyclops," said Storm as she stood up, "I think we have to split up. Someone has to take care of the Professor and Logan while the other half look for Spiderman."
"I am NOT letting Bobby and Rogue go," said Cyclops defiantly. Storm looked at Cyclops.
"Scott, I think it's our only choice," she said, "We're the only ones who know how to operate the machinery in here and we know how to contact the others if we need reinforcements. Besides, by then, Logan should be unfrozen, and he can go after them."
Scott shook his head, "I don't care. We'll wait until Logan's unfrozen then-"
"And wait as that monster kills innocent people?" asked Bobby impatiently as Rogue helped him up. Scott paused.
"Besides, if we do need help, we'll contact you with the intercom," replied Rogue.
Scott sighed. "Fine-but be careful."
Bobby and Rogue nodded and quickly jogged out of the door.
"I've got a bad feeling about this, Storm," said Scott.
"Give them a chance. Besides, they might surprise you," she said.
"I can still feel a pulse, and his breathing is pretty steady," Cyclops replied slowly. His response did not erase the worry on Storm's face. Suddenly, they heard Rogue's soft sobs. Cyclops was about to walk toward her when Storm placed an arm in front of him.
"I'll handle this," said Storm as Cyclops nodded and turned his attention to the Professor.
