A/N Ok I know it has been too long XP

Chapter 2.

"What do you know about the kidnappings?" Xavier asked McCoy and Cindy.

"Not much more then you do. Magneto has been kidnapping people very high up in the government. People who have connections, can stop laws, pass laws etc. But, Cindy discovered something." Hank gestured to his companion.

"I was heading to the car from the lab, when two men came out and asked to question me. Before I knew it, they had shot me with a tranquilizer. When I woke up, I was in the back of a car, speeding down the interstate."

"But the interstate is only a half hour from the lab, how did the tranquilizer wear off that quickly?" Xavier asked.

"I don't know. All I know is that I heard them conversing. The men who had taken me and Magneto. They said that they had the doctor and all was set, the officials wont know what hit them."

"I see. And how do you know what his next target is?" Xavier asked.

"It's you." Hank said. "Magneto needs to get to you. To get you out of the way."

"Why?"

"Because he needs a mutant here. I don't know who but that is all I could figure out before they noticed I was awake and had to jump out of the car." Cindy said.

"This is troubling news." Xavier said.

"We are here to help." Hank said.

"Alright, let me think on this, I will call you later." As Hank and Cindy left, Xavier couldn't help but feel an icy wall Cindy had put up around herself. He also wondered what her mutation was. Not many people could jump from a car flying down the Interstate and live.

"I don't like this Hank." Cindy said as soon as they were back in their room.

"Don't like what?"

"I can feel him snooping around in my mind! He is going through my life piece by piece and it is all I can do to keep him out of it!"

"Look, I know what they did was bad, but he isn't like that! He wouldn't try to do that! You are paranoid."

"No, I'm not. I can feel what it is like. I have had it done so many times I can tell. It is sort of a tingling behind your ears then a subtle change in your thought process. Maybe just a small jump. Trust me , I know what I am talking about!" Cindy said, a little panicky.

"Cindy! Calm down! It's ok! What do you mean it took all you had not to let him in?"

"I mean he didn't read my mind. I put up a mental barrier."

"How did you learn to do that?"

Cindy smiled grimly. "When Stryker has scientists and mutant psychics trying to dissect you mind every second of every day, you figure out how to protect yourself."
