Chapter 21
The shout came from behind the curtain at the end of the room. Many of the people who were doing nothing went running to it leaving the cylinders unguarded and Rogue seized her chance. She studied the controls and had no idea what to do. She decided to take a chance and she pressed some of the buttons and watched as the liquid drained and the cylinder opened to reveal an unconscious Kurt. She quickly went to her brothers' side and checked for a pulse. She found it and he began to groan. He opened his eyes so he was squinting and Rogue grinned.
"Meine Schwester?" Kurt asked in a croaky voice.
"Yeah, its me. Now Ah need ya to wake up now. We have to get everyone out." She told him softly. She pulled him up to a sitting position with her arms around his shoulders. He murmured some more German softly to himself. Rogue was busy concentrating on waking Kurt up that she didn't notice some of the guards coming towards her. She heard the sound of guns being readied and she looked up. In front of her she saw half a dozen men coming towards her.
"You there! What are you doing?" asked the leading soldier.
"Rogue looked around quickly to make sure they were the only ones who had locked on to what she was doing. When she didn't answer the guard gave the order for his men to shoot. Rogue called up Jeans power and created a mental shield around herself and Kurt. The bullets just bounced right off and began ricocheting around the room, some piercing the glass cylinders causing them to crack and leak. Many of the civilian scientists and lab assistances dived on the floor to avoid the bullets. The guards ceased firing after a few minuets when they saw they weren't getting anywhere. Rogue took this lapse in attack to see the damage to the cylinders. She saw that most had at least one hole if not more and that the liquid was slowly seeping out. She knew that they wouldn't be quick enough to help her and Kurt so she used Jeans power to try and break some of the x-men out. First of all she set Logan free. The water gushed out and he collapsed to the floor. Before he hit it, his hands came out and he caught himself. Rogue was surprised to see that he recovered so quickly but then realized he would if you thought about his advanced healing. Logan jumped up and surveyed what was going on. Rogue let go of Kurt who was regaining his strength and began pulling him up. She dragged him over to Logan who greeted them with a nod and pulled them behind the other cylinders. Protected by the glass Rogue let the mental shield.
"What the hell is going on stripes?" Logan growled. Looking from the cylinders with the x-men to the scientists and back to Rogue.
"Well while Ah was in New Orleans Lance came and told me ya had all been taken so Ah came back to help ya. Ah think they're doing some experiments on the x-men. All of ya are in here, in the cylinders, except for, Ah couldn't see Kitty." She told them trying to explain everything at once. She looked around and saw they were in front of Jean.
"You were where?" Logan asked looking at her sideways.
"Ah'll tell ya later." Rogue told him. "Right now we need to get everyone outta here and quickly. Ah think that Ah should get them out, Logan can ya distract them and Kurt ya need to teleport them away up to the surface." She told them quickly explaining the layout of the base. Logan smiled at her, well it wasn't really a smile it was more of an evil smirk, which Rogue took to mean that he's going to enjoy himself. Snickt went Logan's claws and he jumped out from behind the glass cylinder, heading straight for the group of guards that had gathered. Rogue watched him leap around them, jabbing and cutting at them. Then she grabbed Kurt and made her way to free the others.

Remy had been in Magnetos office for almost half an hour and still he could hear nothing. He was sure that Rogue and Lance would be in the base by now trying to release the trapped mutants but there were no sounds that he could hear with his sensitive thief's ears. Pietro knocked on the door and walked up to his father. He whispered something to him and then Magneto walked over to Sabertooth and whispered instructions to him. Pietro then left with Sabertooth in tow leaving Magneto and Remy alone. Magneto narrowed his eyes at Remy who smiled back confidently. The phone rang and Magneto picked it up.
"What?" Pause "How did this happen?" Pause.
"I'll be there in a minuet." And he put the phone down. He opened the door and signalled that Remy should follow him.
"There have been some disturbances in the experiment room. We are going to go and put a stop to it. It seems that some of the x-men have gotten free." Magneto explained quickly as he walked. Remy kept up and got some cards ready to throw. He followed him down the corridor to large sliding doors. The door opened to show utter pandemonium. All of the place human scientists were running about and some soldiers were fighting the freed mutants. His chere had been busy he thought with a smile. His smile faded a bit when he saw that many of the x-men had not yet regained complete control and were sitting dazed on the floor. He saw that Wolverine and Nightcrawler were the only ones in any state to defend themselves and they were making sure that the x-kids were being kept safe. Magneto took this all in with one glance and turned to Remy. Remy quickly wiped the smile off of his face but it was too late, Mags had seen it.
"I was going to ask how they got free but only Rogue was not captured. Your wandering eye has caught an x-girl. I should have known." He said smiling; he reached out a hand and a bar of metal snaked its way over. Before Remy could get out of the way the bar had fastened itself around his midriff and sent him slamming against the wall about 15 foot in the air. Remy struggled to try and free his hands but they were pinned to his sides, unable to reach anywhere. He surveyed the room while he was hanging there. Across the long chamber he could see a sealed off area, a few rows of glass cylinders, some empty and some with x-men still in. From his vantage point he could see the x-men being gathered together and were being protected by Nightcrawler and Wolverine. His eyes scanned the room looking for the one person he wanted to see. Across the room he saw her familiar red hair with white bangs and he breathed a sigh of relief. She was ok, she was safe. He brought his attention back to his current predicament.
Magneto had decided that he was no immediate threat due to his pinned state and had headed over to the middle of the room to where wolverine was fighting. He raised his hands and trapped Wolverine in a magnetic field, which rendered him immobile. Remy worked his hands, trying to pry them loose from the metal. He managed to free one and he reached to the end of the bar farthest away from his body. He charged it up causing it glow. He pulled his hand away and shielded his face. The end of the bar blew up causing him to tilt dramatically. His other hand was now free and he reached to the other end and did the same. This time when it exploded he was completely free and with nothing to hold him in place he dropped to the ground like a stone. The wind was knocked out of him as he landed in a painful heap and he was hit buy falling debris, which caused cuts on his hands and face. He pulled himself up despite the screaming agony of his muscles he brought out his bow staff and extended it readying himself for the attack.

Rogue ran to the end of the room after releasing the last of the x-kids and the area at the end, which was cut off with a curtain hoping to find Kitty. She found her all right but she was completely pale and had a deep gash across her belly. Rogue was distraught. She went to Kitty's side and saw her eyelids flutter.
"Kitty? Kitty can ya hear me sugah?" Rogue asked softly. Kitty looked up at her recognition dawning in her fading eyes.
"Rogue?" she asked weakly tears forming. "Rogue can you forgive me?" she whispered.
"What for sugah?" Rogue asked in confusion.
"For telling Scott about you and Remy." She said with a weak smile. "I didn't mean to."
"Of course Ah forgive ya Kitty now we're gonna get ya outta here." She told her. Kitty smiled and closed her eyes. Rogue looked at the wound in her and saw how deep it was. She panicked not thinking straight. What am Ah gonna do? She quickly pressed her hands over the wound to try and stem the flow of crimson blood and she glanced around. Ah need help, she thought eyeing the blood seeping through her fingers, and Ah need it fast.

Remy looked around the room trying to find Rogue, he couldn't see her anywhere. He needed to find her but he saw that the x-men were in trouble. Wolverine was busy with Magneto and that only left Nightcrawler with the x-men. He made his way round there knocking a few guards out a s he went with sharp cracks to their heads with his staff. Suddenly the staff whizzed out of his hand towards Magneto. Cursing, Remy reached into his pockets for his trusty deck of cards and pulled them out. He launched some of them at Magneto who staggered out of the way and then launched the bow staff straight at him at an alarming speed. Remy dived out of the way with the staff just whistling past his ear. He fell onto the floor, bashing his already aching body, and rolled away. Magneto dismissed the Cajun and turned his attention back to Wolverine. Remy glanced between Magneto and Wolverine and the group of disorientated group of x-kids. Remy decided to help the x-kids. He ran towards them throwing charged cards at the guards. He approached the growing group of x-kids being gathered and protected by Jean and Cyclops with Kurt teleporting new kids to the group and distracting the guards. Remy was running towards them making sure that he wasn't going to be attacked by the guards when he suddenly found himself floating in the air. He looked towards the red-haired telepath and saw her concentrating on him, keeping him suspended there.
"Petite let Remy down. Remy be here to help you. He came here with his Roguey." He told her. She eyed him suspiciously but couldn't detect any lying so she lowered him towards the group. His feet touched the floor but he couldn't move. He gave Jean his most charming smile and she blushed and turned away releasing him. He glanced around the room while throwing his cards and spotted the person he had been looking for. He saw her small figure duck round a large curtain. He longed to follow her but he couldn't leave the x-men who were being bombarded by the guards who had gained reinforcements. He saw movement out of the corner of his eye and he looked towards the door to see Lance leading the Brotherhood minus Pietro. They paused at the door and surveyed the room. Lance saw Remy and began to make his way over followed by the rest of the guys.
Wanda didn't follow because she had spotted her daddy dearest playing throwing games with Wolverine and she went ballistic. She marched over to him with her hands in balled fists at her side, which began to glow blue. Once she was close enough she reached out her hands and enveloped Magneto in a pulsing cloud of blue, cutting off his mutant power. Wolverine plummeted to the ground but was caught by Jean who lowered him gently over to her.
Remy looked away from where Wanda was shouting and pounding her father and saw Lance approaching. He saw Lance scan the group obviously looking for Kitty and frowned when he couldn't see her.
"You seen Kitty?" he asked Remy sharply. Remy shook his head. "Pietro said something about experiments and Kit was gonna be first." He told Remy who nodded and then looked at the curtain. Lance followed his glance and saw it. He started running towards it. Remy glanced at the group and saw that Blob and Toad were helping them so he followed Lance.

She looked around the makeshift operating theatre and her eyes came to rest on a medical cabinet and a medical chest. She dived over to them and wrenched the door on the cabinet open. She began to rummage for something to help when she came across a large roll of bandages. She nabbed them and found some tape and scissors as well and returned to Kitty. Her breathing had got shallower and she had her eyes closed. She began to wrap the bandages around the wound when she heard someone enter the other end of the room. She ignored the sounds of pandemonium and carried on working. She wrapped the bandages but as soon as she started blood had seeped through them. She undid them all and whirled around to find something to soak up the blood. She was rummaging through the cabinet again when Lance quickly followed by Remy came round the corner. Both guys took in what was happening. Lance rushed to Kitty's talking to her, trying to wake her. He saw the wound in her side and turned pale. Remy looked at Kitty and then at Rogue. She turned back to searching the cabinet and chest. She returned to the table with some thick padding to try and prevent blood loss. Lance was holding Kitty's hand and stroking the hair of her pale and clammy face. Rogue watched the affection; she grabbed Remy's hand and pulled him to one side.
"Remy go and get Kurt. Now. We have to get her to the med lab, Ah don't know how long she's gonna last. Mr McCoy should have returned from his trip and he can help her." She whispered to him and shoving him around the curtain. She returned to Kitty and saw that Lance was trying to stop the blood flow with shaking hands. She went to help him by wrapping bandages tightly around the padding on the wound. Rogue finished tying off the bandage when a loud bampf was heard and there was a cloud of sulphuric smoke. Remy and Kurt were standing by the cabinet. Kurt looked at Kitty, pale and unconscious on the table and hw was shocked. He quickly snapped out of it and stood next to the table and took hold of Kitty and the table and teleported.
Rogue sighed, knowing that Kurt wouldn't let anything happen to Kitty and that Mr McCoy would help her. She looked over to Lance who was standing with his back to her his shoulders held taught. When Rogue touched his shoulder he turned to her, tears in his eyes.
"Is she gonna be ok?" he asked in a husky voice.
"Yeah sugah, she'll be fine but we need to get outta here now." She told him, pulling him over to the edge of the curtain, "Ya ain't gonna be any good to her in here."
Lance followed her and Remy round the screen. At the far end of the room they could see that Wanda had now began ripping pieces of the structure from the room to hurl at Magneto, which meant that the room was now unstable and in places was beginning to collapse. The x-kids were looking around with petrified looks on their faces and Wolverine was taking out the guards.
"Logan!" Rogue shouted getting his attention, "Go faster!" she told him pointing at the ceiling high above them and the dirt falling from it. Logan glanced up and then at the x-kids. Growling he barked out orders to them and the group began to move across the room to the exit. The kids who had managed to regain most of their strength helped the others and used their powers to hold off the guards. Logan took the kids out of the door and along the corridor relying on his heightened senses to lead them out.
Remy, Rogue and Lance dashed across the room avoiding the falling debris and ducked out of the door. They went on down the corridor but Rogue glanced back. She saw that Wanda was totally unaware that the building was falling down around her and so she hadn't moved. Rouge looked t Remy who was jogging along the corridor with Lance. She glanced back in, her hand in her pocket. Remy realized that Rogue was not behind him anymore so he stopped and turned back. He saw her in the doorway her hand in her pocket. She pulled out something and let it fall to the ground. She smiled at him and dived back into the room sealing the door behind her.
Right people this story is drawing to a close. Ya got questions ask them now please. I hope it hasn't gotten too bad. I' good at beginnings then it is down hill from there. Thank you for reviewing lots. It does help so ya know what to do now. REVIEW!
