A/N: Bant is awesome. Bant is great. Bant updated again whoo!

Sorry (or as some Canadians says soory) this is going to little itty bitty baby chapter because I have to go school then to art club then come home and bake cupcakes for two hours and then go to the photo exhibition. I'm going to have one or two photos up. Yay!

On with the chappie!!


The last of his major wounds healed and Logan was finally able to stand up. He looked around the dark room and found Ororo struggling to free herself from Toad's slime. Using his claws he managed to free her and the white haired woman fell to the floor.

"Thank you Logan," she said as she stood up and brushed herself off. "Scott fell through the floor."

Logan grunted and the two of them went down to the next floor. The room was a complete mess. The dust from ceilinglay over the debris in a thick coat. Carefully, Logan and Ororo began to remove giant chunks of the ceiling, hoping they would find their teammate alive.

A particularly large portion of the ceiling went fly through the air as Logan threw it over his shoulder. Looking down he found what they were looking for. Scott lay before him, one of his legs bentat an odd angle.

"I found him," Logan called out to Ororo. She came over and looked down at the body. "He's still alive, I can hear him breathing."

It took quite an effort but Ororo and Logan managed to get Scott to the Blackbird. The sleek black jet took off and carried them to Institute where Scott would be treated. And where they would have to break the news to the Professor.

Logan, Ororo, and Professor Xavier all stood around Scott's bed. The mutant lay in the sickbay, waiting to heal so he could go back to fighting. Dr. Hank McCoy had put his leg in a cast and told him not to leave.

"Tell me exactly what happened," the Professor said, his blue eyes full of worry.

Logan, Ororo, and Scott filled him on the battle but Scott stopped when he got to the part where he fell through the floor. Logan and Ororo told them of how Magneto put collars on Kurt and Charlie and took them away.

Professor X nodded sadly. "Cerebro will not be able to find them. I've tried countless times to locate the base but it seems as though Eric has made it impenetrable, much like his helmet."

"So what do we?" Ororo looked to the Professor anxiously. She was very worried about the two mutants who had been taken, Kurt in particular.

"We leave it up to them to escape." The Professor sighed. "Kurt and Charlie make an excellent team. You all saw them togetherin the Danger Room. I have complete confidence in their abilities."

What Charles Xavier didn't know is that Kurt and Charlie's abilities had been turned against them.


Okay it was actually a little longer than I had expected. Thanks for the reviews, keep them coming please!

I was planning of Ororo die but she's a cool character... even if I do hate her. GRR!
