Notes- I am sososososososososo sorry that I haven't updated in forever! I was so preoccupied with other fandoms... mainly Naruto. I just kind of lost interest in this story. Well, I wanna finish it up and make everyone a little bit happier! There are 2 more chapters after this one that are finished and maybe 3 chapters left. Hope you are enjoying and please forgive me!

Chapter 13- ("I just wish I knew what was going on.")

"Pietro! Todd! Freddy! Somebody get down here!" Tabby screamed, running from her hiding place at the top of the stairs, down to the parlor, "It's Rogue and Lance!"

Todd lazily made his way out of his room. He didn't see the states of his friends when he reached the top of the stairs. He was desperately trying to rub the sleep out of his eyes, "Why the hell are you screamin'?"

He felt a rush of air go by him, "Getoutoftheway!"

Todd stopped all movement and looked down and saw the chaotic scene; Tabitha kneeing over Lances limp body, Pietro carefully dislodging Rogue's hands from the tight grip she had on her hair.

"What's going on, Pietro?" Tabitha asked the boy.

"Go call the Professor, NOW!" he picked up the screaming girl and was out the door in a flash.

"What the hell?" Freddy walked out of his room, the smaller boy pushing past him to get to a phone, "Tabby?"

"Something happened. We're taking them to the Professor. He'll know what to do," she told him, tears in her eyes, "He'll-"

A BAMF, the smell of sulfur and brimstone, and the sight of a blue boy covered in fur cut her off.

"Blue!" she jumped into his arms, "Thank God you're here!"

He pushed her back gently, "Look, Logan vill be by in a vew minutes wizz zee X-Van to take you to zee Institute. I gotta get zis guy some help," he grabbed Lance around his chest, "Ve'll take care of him," and BAMFed away.

Freddy and Todd made their way down the stairs to where Tabitha was standing.

"What happened?" Fred asked her.

"I- I was sitting at th-the top of the steps when th-they came in. They w-were talking about why sh-she could t-touch and they k-kissed and it was so ro-romantic and then they screamed and f-f-fell and I ran down there," she stuttered, grabbing Fred's large arm and crying into it, "The Pr-professor will know wh-what to do."

"You should put some shoes on, yo. Logan'll be here any minute," Todd said, placing his hand on her shoulder gently.

She nodded and ran upstairs.

"You think they'll be okay?" Fred asked the smaller boy.

"We can only hope, man. I just wish I knew what was going on," he sighed, "I'm gonna get ready."

"Me too."

The two went upstairs and met up in a few minutes with Tabitha who was waiting impatiently by the door, "Where the hell is Logan?" she turned when she heard the boys come downstairs.

"Right there," Todd observed as he saw the X-Van pull up and beeped its horn. The three of them walk drudgingly out the door and piled in the back of the vehicle.

There was silence throughout the whole trip. Logan sat up front, keeping one eye on the road and one eye on the rear view mirror at the kids. Fred had his arm against the door with his head leaning on his palm. Tabitha sat in the middle, her eyes closed and her head resting on Todd's shoulder. He seemed to be in a daze, starring at the back of Logan's seat. He pulled up to the mansion and waited for them to react. They didn't.

"Alright, we're here," he said in a low voice.

The three of them perked up and exited the van. Once they got inside, Jean and Kurt greeted them.

"Where's Lance and Rogue? And Pietro?" Tabitha asked Kurt immediatly.

"Pietro is in the kitchen. Lance and Rogue are in the infirmary," Jean answered, "The Professor is keeping me updated. Does anyone know what happened?"

"Tabitha saw it all," Freddy said, pointing at the blonde girl.

"The Professor will need to see you. I'll take you-"

"No Jean, I'll do it," Kurt stepped forward, "I'll take her down."

Jean gave him a sceptical glance, "Okay then. Freddy, Todd, would you like to join Pietro in the kitchen?"

They nodded and followed the red head towards the kitchen.

Once they were out of hearing range, Kurt spoke up, "Are you okay?"

She looked up at him and sighed, "I think so. It was just so scary, you know? To see your broth- I mean teammate so vulnerable and not being able to help. Not know what was going on."

They continued to walk in silence through door after door until they reached a large silver one.

"I'll get zee Profezzor," he BAMFed before she could say anything.

A moment later, Xavier emerged from the door with Storm and Kurt behind him.

"Good evening Tabitha. You say you know-"

"Are they okay?"

"Before you ask any questions Miss Smith, we need to find out what happened," Storm requested.

She told them what had happened, all having brief looks of surprise on their faces. The Professor was the first one to speak, "Well, it looks like Lance will be okay. It seems during their encounter, she regained her memories and mutation."

"Will she be okay?"

"I have been inside her mind and I've been trying to sort everything out for her. Right now she doesn't know which memories are hers and which ones belong to others. We have a lot of work to do here, Tabitha. If you and the members of your team want to spend the night, it can be arranged."

"How long is Lance gonna be here?"

"His vital signs are good. He should be ready to go home sometime tomorrow."

"I think we'll go home."

Miss Munroe took a step forward, "Are you sure, child?"

"Yeah. I doubt the guys will wanna stay here," she stood up straight and looked toward the Professor, "Just call me. Tell me what's going on, okay?"

"Of course," he turned to Kurt, "Can you escort Miss Smith and the other Brotherhood members back to the X-Van? I'll tell Logan to get it ready."

"Yez Profezzor," shoulder to shoulder the pair walked to the kitchen in silence. When they got there, they saw Scott, Jean, Kitty, Evan, Todd, Freddy, and Pietro scattered around the room.

Immediately, Quicksilver as face to face with the blonde girl, "What's up?"

"The Professor said he's gonna be okay. He'll be ready to go home tomorrow."

"What about Rogue, yo?"

"He's still working with her."

"How did this happen?" Scott asked.

She glanced around the room and looked at Kitty's tearstained face, "She and L-"

"I'll tell zem later," Kurt said trying to relieve the stress his blonde friend was feeling.

She mouthed the words Thank you and turned to her team, "If it's okay, I told the Professor we'd wait it out at home."

"Ok, that's fine, I guess," Pietro said with a glance at Todd and Freddy.

"I'll meet you guys there," Pietro said, and we was out of the room before anyone had a chance to blink.

The three remaining members of the Brotherhood walked side by side to the front door, waved their good byes and were into the X-Van again.
