"A sewer?" Lance asked in disbelief.

"Yes, the hideout of the Morlocks." Hank told him chuckling softly.

"Don't worry Lance, we'll be meeting Caliban in an alley, not in a sewer I assure you." Xavier said.

"He'll be able to locate Rogue right?" He asked.

"Yes."

"I hope so." He said in a slightly worried tone.

The telepath and the blue mutant exchanged a glanced. Xavier knew of the bond Rogue and Lance had when she was with the Brotherhood. They were both very protective of each other and had the brother/sister relationship going for them. But now it seemed as if things had changed slightly.

"I ain't wearing that!" Todd said shaking his head in disgust.

"Yea we'd be noted as an X-Geek then." Fred said.

Logan sighed. "Fine then just carry these around and don't lose them." He ordered tossing them both a communicator. He grabbed one for himself and handed one to Angel.

"How long do we wait?" He asked.

"Until Chuck gives the word." Logan said getting impatient.

"Would they hurt her?"

"Um.. well." Fred started to say.

"Pietro probably wouldn't but we don't know much about the Acolyte's. Last time that Gambit dude tried to blow me up and in our own house yo."

**********************

"Let me go." Rogue struggled against the bars that were holding her against the wall by Magneto.

"Rogue I have no intentions of hurting you, but you must understand. This is for your own good. You must realize how much better it would be to join my side."

"Ah don` think so."

"Your power is endless and very dangerous. A perfect asset to the team."

"Yer just lahke Mystique wantin` me fer mah powers! Ah would nevah join yer sahde!" She said her green eyes flashing angrily. "Even if it costed me mah lahfe."

Sabretooth chuckled as he moved near her and touched the side of her face with one of his claws. "Keep talking and it might."

"Come now Sabretooth play nice with our guest."

"It is very hard." Caliban said.

Lance groaned in frustration as he paced up and down the alley way. They had been there for fifteen minutes now as Caliban tried to locate Rogue and nothing came up. "Isn't there an easier way."

"Because of Magneto's fortress of a sort being blocked like Magneto if he was wearing his helmet it will take some times. Please try and relax and stay calm Mr. Alvers." Hank said.

"How can you tell me to relax and stay calm when Rogue's missing and god knows what they could be doing to her right now!"

"I shall try again." The mutant said concentrating the missing mutant. He searched through his mind of the world of mutants. Going deeper and deeper trying to locate one mutant. If not for being in Magneto's hold the girl would have been very easy to locate. He went a bit deeper ending up in downtown Bayville where he saw a girl with two white striped in her hair held against a wall by metal bars. He zoomed out of the picture a bit to get the exact location and opened his eyes. "I have found her. She is in downtown Bayville, the old warehouse on 23rd Street off of Wilmington Drive."

"Thank you." Hank said.

Xavier quickly contacted Logan through telepathy. 'Logan we found her. The old warehouse off of Wilmington Drive on 23rd Street.'

'We're on our way Chuck.' He said as he looked at the three mutants in front of him. "Move out now."

"They found her?"

"Yea on 23rd Street."

"But that place is full of warehouses yo."

"Yea with one having the scent of Rogue." Logan said getting into the X-Van. "Look you kids aren't trained like the X-Men are but if we want to get Rogue back in one-piece then I suggest you learn to take orders and not mess up."

"I'll do whatever it takes." Angel said nodding to Logan as the van took off.

**********************

"Is this how ya treat all guests?"

"Come now chè re, yer just special."

"Stop callin` me that swamp rat."

"Just give in Rogue. You'll be happier here."

"Ah was happy."

"Happy to be spending the Christmas holiday alone?"

"Ah wasn` alone."

"Yea like the Professor, Beast, and Wolverine are good company." The speed demon said rolling his eyes. "Better yet you could have spent it with the Brotherhood, without running water, food, and garbage all over the place."
