Chapter 17
Rogue stared at the woman in front of her.
"Do Ah know ya?" she asked stalling for time.
"Well I believe that you know my husband. I saw him follow you out of the club and I followed. Where is my husband?" she queried calmly.
"Ah don't know what ya talking about. There was a guy who Ah don't know who thought Ah was someone else and then he left. Now can ya please leave, Ah want some sleep." She said moving towards Bella, taking off her gloves.
"I won't ask you again you tramp. Where is my Remy?" Bella demanded.
"Ah don't know. Now leave." Rogue snapped. Bella moved towards her pulling her arm back to punch. Rogue moved to the side and Bella ended up punching the air. Bella rounded on her; her serene look replaced by one of fury. She moved towards her and Rogue did not back away. Bella tried to hit Rogue but all the sessions in the Danger Room had paid off. Rogue blocked all the attempts and started to attack back. She punched Bella in the stomach and then in the face with considerable force. She then decided to drain her and get her out of there. She reached out and touched the blond woman's face and felt the familiar pull of her powers. In a matter of seconds Bella was on the floor in an unconscious pile. Rogue hauled her over to the window and dragged her down the fire escape. She reached the street level and weaved through the alleyway. She found a spot and put Bella down, not too gently, where she would wake several hours later with no memory of the confrontation until much later.

Kurt saw Kitty come up to him in the corridor.
"Hey Kurt can you, like, come here a second?" she asked leading him down the corridor and outside to the side of the building. He saw a black van parked nearby but took no notice of it. He looked at Kitty.
"Vhat do you vant?" he asked. Before he could react the small girl in front of him put a handkerchief over his mouth. He saw everything go blurry and then fade to black as he passed out.
He was then picked up by a large Russian man and placed into the back of the van. He was bound then placed to an unconscious figure that was Kitty. A man in a big cape went up to the imitation of the small girl.
"Raven, I want you to get all of the x-men quickly." He said before walking away.
"Yes Magneto." She replied before returning to the building to gather the rest.

Lance saw Kitty walk past him without even glancing at him. He watched her as she walked towards Jean and Scott and asking them to follow her. He decided to follow her. She had seemed fine with him last night when they had been on the phone. She had been so excited for Rogue in New Orleans. He saw Kitty lead the two x-geeks around the corner. He heard two thumps as something hit the ground. He ducked behind the bushes as Kitty came round the corner alone. She went past and he edged his way to the corner and peered round. He saw the unconscious bodies of Scott and Jean being bound and taken to a van. In the van he saw two more bodies but couldn't tell who they were. He pulled back quickly and ducked behind the bushes as Kitty came out leading Sam and Amara. He watched them go round the corner and heard two thumps. He quickly moved away from the area and went out to his jeep. He got in and tried to think. The x-geeks were being taken. By who? What for? He rested his head on the steering wheel and didn't notice when the black van drove away from the building heading towards the road leading past the institute.

Logan was walking from his room when he was unable to move. He was frozen to the spot when he saw Magneto approach him.
"What do you want bucket head?" he growled as menacingly as he could.
"Why I want all of the x-men of course." Magneto then approached Logan with a handkerchief and pressed it over his mouth. After a few minuets the shorter man was rendered unconscious. He was then thrown out of a window to a waiting van below where there were now the bodies of all the teenage mutants and their teachers. The van door was then slammed shut and the two men got in and drove off away from Bayville to a secret location.

Lance drove as quickly as he could. He was on the freeway heading towards New Orleans. Why was he going? He was going to find Rogue. After seeing the x-men at school get taken he had got in his jeep and gone to the institute. When he got there he couldn't find any of the teachers and so he thought that they had been taken as well. He had known that Rogue was in New Orleans thanks to his precious Kitty and their long late night phone calls. So he had decided to find Rogue, who he hoped would help him to get them out. God, he thought why am I doing this? Then he realised why, he loved Kitty. He pushed his foot harder on the gas pedal and sped onto New Orleans.
