Previously in lost part five"Wait there's a war going on?"
"More of a cold war between darklord and the maker they're evenly matched and have a tentative truce part of the truce is to leave certain areas alone, these are known as free holds."
Suddenly Kitty let out a strangled cry
"KITTY?" Shouted Lance running forward he looked round and could see the structures in the distance.
As he got closer he realised something was bothering him he could see several buildings covered in wild strange ivy, some buildings were burnt out husks but there was something else…
And then he saw what Kitty was crying about.
"Oh my god." he gasped
On the ground….
Worn and battered…
Was a road sign, which said
Welcome to Bayville.
Lost
Part 6Suddenly Lance knew.
He knew what had felt so strange about the series of buildings before him…he had recognised it for what it was…it was Bayville
But how? They were on an alien planet with strange creatures and plantlife but the habitat before him was Bayville.
He could see Bayville high from his vantage poin, and Bayville mall he could see the grindstone, the boarding house, the police station…everything some of it was flooded but he knew for certain,
This was Bayville.
"Did you know about this?" asked rogue
"No," said Francesca "I never knew all the places I've been to so far are alien in design both the dark tower and the techtropolis city don't understand how this could be here?"
"We have to find out… first thing first we have to cross the bridge into Bayville" said Lance
The group made there way down to the bridge into Bayville only to find it guarded by two large burly mutants "halt!!!" roared one "state your business!"
"Um well…Francesca? " asked Lance
"We've come to make a home for our…crew" said Francesca
"Pah we're not letting anybody--- "
"You're mistaken." said Francesca "you will let us pass."
The guards seemed to be in a trance
"In fact you will forget we passed through the gates…."
"What did you do?" Asked Peter
"I'm a telepath." said Francesca "I suggested he let us pass and forget he saw us enter"
"Okay you haven't been reading my mind have you?" asked Peter
"No, I didn't think to" said Francesca
"Oh…okay"
"Why you having dirty little thoughts or something?"she asked.
Peter blushed furiously and Francesca giggled
As the group walked through the main street of Bayville the looked at the people going about there business not one of them seemed to be older than 18 they wore a mismatch of clothing there were some who were wearing a dinner jacket with a leather mini skirt some were wearing weird creations a bit like the makeshift clothing Lance and the others were wearing… every so often Francesca would warn the others of people with malicious intent and the largely managed to avoid the gangs that were going around
Lance was silent through all this as was all the other Bayville residents in the group...they were in shock at the fact that only a few days ago their world was normal they had walked down this street but now… Lance sighed and straigtened up now wasn't the time for recriminations or to let this strangeness get him down…he had to be strong the others were counting on him "okay Kurt can you teleport over to the boarding house take rogue with you… "
"Why am ah going to the boarding house?" Asked rogue
"because you've been to the boarding house and we need to check and see if it's the real deal"
Kurt nodded grabbed rogue and vanished
"What now" said Refrax
"Now we wait…"
- - - - - -
Kurt teleported to the boarding house the front was covered in the strange ivory that he had seen covering a lot of the the buildings
"Ah'm going inside" said rogue "watch mah back."
"You got it rogue" said Kurt
Rogue looked round "lets not go trough the front entrance get us to the roof." she said
Kurt teleported onto the roof rogue ripped some off the vines away from a window and pried it open
She dropped through the window and Kurt followed
"Anna?"
"This used to be mah room Kurt… its been trashed and it's a wreck…" rogue walked over to a wall and lifted up a torn piece of wall paper "but its definetly my old room"
Kurt looked at the what was scribbled on the wall it was the words: brotherhood was 'ere "you wrote that?"
"Nope toad did ah was so p'ed off mystique made Lance and toad wallpaper mah room."
"So this is definetly the boarding house"
"It would seem so…"
Suddenly they were interrupted by a scream they spun round to see a seven year old lizard girl there was the sound of approaching footsteps
"Kurt! Get us out of here!" Snapped rogue
"You don't have to tell me twice!" he grabbed rogue and teleported them away
"You know we haven't even talked about our abilities…" muttered Radius
To freddy
"Yeah you're—heads up! Rogue and Nightcrawler are back!"
Lance walked over to rogue "is it?"
"Yeah it's the real deal alright its also occupied"
"£ !!!" swore Lance "this makes no sense…"
"well we can worry about the implications later" said Francesca "we need to find habitable accomedations…"
Lance nodded "okay there are 15 of us and a baby we need someplace with enough room for us to sleep I'm heading in direction of the school."
"ah man! I cant believe we're heading to school!" Muttered Refrax
"tell me about it." sighed Tabitha "I hoped that I would never have to step foot in one again…"
within 10 minutes they made their way to bayville high. It was a wreck half the walls had caved in he could see a group of people on bikes and a woman sitting on what looked like a throne. "great… another place occupied." said Lance he was about to turn and walk away when he noticed something, it was a group of about five people all tied up but what caught his eye was a familiar white haired youth bound and gagged
"Pietro?" Gasped Lance in surprise the blob cracked his knuckles and stood up… started to move towards the school… "hold up freddy we cant just run in there!"
"Why not" said Benjamin "I say we rush them take them by surprise."
"Its not that simple we have no idea of there numbers or their capabilities and beside we have no were to retreat to…" we need a plan of action…
"Francesca can you talk to us telepathicly?"
((yes)) came the telepathic reply
"good." smiled Lance "Kurt and Kitty are our best stealth mutants…if we create a diversion they could get those people out of there… but where to retreat to?"
"Bayville leisure center." said Francesca suddenly
"What do you mean"
"I searched the closest minds around for somewhere uninhabited it seems the leisure center is unoccupied…"
"Why would it be unoccupied "
"its in the area of Bayville that's flooded…"
"Peter, Buff, take Monet and Jenni, follow Francesca to the leisure center…Francesca I want you to relay directions to the leisure center to the rest of us telepathicly"
Francesca, Peter and the others nodded and took off…
"Refrax you said you have xray vision." said Lance
"Yeah but it comes and goes…"
"Okay see if you can focus it we need to get an estimate of how many are inside the school"
Refrax nodded and stood up he squinted as if he was trying to focus
"1,2,3,5…6 inside" he said
"good that brings the gang up to 12 Here's what we're going to do… Kurt drop me on the football field then teleport blob, boom boom and Flex into the school attack the guys on the inside. rogue you borrow Kurts ability and teleport them out while Radius you, Refrax and benjamin lead the attack on the gang members outside while this is going on Kitty you phase the prisoners out of the bindings Kurt teleports them out of there then you and rogue get Refrax, Radius and benjamin out I'll cause a serious earthquake stopping the gang from following and with Francesca's mental prodding we make our way to the leisure center. Agreed?"
"Agreed." Came the replie
"I hope to god this works…" muttered Lance…"lets do this!"

Samantha felipe had arrived on this strange world 4 years ago she had struggled, indured many a humiliation and pain to claw her way to the top of her own gang…she ruled it with an iron fist she had returned from a gang meeting to find a group of squatters in her base she had taken them by surprise and quickly subdued them
Suddenly there was a massive tremble coming from the direction of the football field and then three guys in makeshift clothing charged towards her gang one of them fired an energy blast from his eyes knocking one of her goons over and then just as she was about to call the rest of the gang from inside she heard a boom as one of the windows exploded
She got up from her throne and let out a fire blast it hit the target dead on with no effect, he just smiled and threw one of her flunkies into her…
Then she realised the prisoners were gone!
rogue teleported into the school she had to gather the others before her porting ability ran out suddenly a giant birdman dropped from the floor above in front of her
she instinctively went to teleport but her head was wracked with pain
"cant have you bailing dearie" said the birdman "nobody messes with the reavers and gets away with it…"
rogue struggled to shake of the haze of pain
"I'm going to enjoy breaking you deari--awk!" The birdman was cut off suddenly he was clutching at her throat rogue looked up to see a mysterious figure materialising he was dressed in a white outfit and combat boots that covered him from head to toe the only parts exsposed were his eyes and his bare muscular arms strapped to his back was a sheathed sword and throwing stars… rogue realised that her head was clear she wanted to find out more about the strange being but remembered she had a mission to complete she teleported away….
Benjamin smiled as he tied a boy who could stretch parts of his body into knots… "you are no challenge!" He bellowed "reavers? More like quavers!"
"I think that's all of them!" said Radius
Just then rogue appeared "gather around boys ah got one port left!"
Samantha screamed in rage as they vanished who ever her attackers were she would have her revenge…
"I know what your thinking about Samantha…" came a voice
She spun round and came face to face with the white garbed figure who had earlier saved rogue "y-you!" She gasped
"Me." said the figure
"Surely you cannot deny me vengance?!"
"Forget it Samantha, you even look maliciously at any of them you deal with me."
"They attacked my base!!"
"Be glad they got here before you killed those prisoners Samantha or else you would have had to deal with me."
"Your serious aren't you whiteknight!"
"Very serious."
"But why?"
"I have… a vested intrest Samantha…but its none of your concern save the fact they are off limits…do you understand?"
"Yes." groaned Samantha
"Good." replied whiteknight turning and walking away

"wahoo!" victory yelled Tabitha.
"Don't celebrate yet boom boom! We have to make sure they're all right," said Kitty
Just then the raven haired girl stirred she opened her eyes… and everything went haywire lights flickered on and off the water from the level below started to churn wildly
"Who are you?!!!" she screamed…
"Whoa! whoa!" Yelled Lance "calm down lady we rescued you from the badguys!"
"No! this is another trick isn't it!" screamed the girl
Francesca's eyes glowed then she suddenly stumbled back And the girl snapped round to look at her "how dare you! How dare you try to strike me down with your mind tricks!"
"I'll do what ever it takes to protect Meg!"
"Meg?" Said the girl hesitating
"My baby!!!"
"Your baby?" Gasped the girl "I…i.. I'm so confused…Pietro! Help me!"
Suddenly Pietro was at the girls side "its okay its okay, I'm here now…I'll keep you safe…"
The chaos died down
"Pietro, you know this lunatic?" asked Nightcrawler
"This lunitic as you so elequintly called her happens to be my sister."
"Whoa hold up you have a sister?!" said Lance
"Her name is Wanda and she is my twin sister… her powers started to rage out of control and our father placed her in a sanitorium cause he couldn't handle it…" said Pietro softly
"Wow you have a sister…" said Tabitha…
"Yeah, so what took you guys so long?"
"How long have you been here? "
"2 months we were moving from place o place, finally we got tired and we discovered Bayville the boarding house was occupied as was the mall and the school was empty, next thing we know we get attacked by a mad woman and her goons , and when next we wake we're here."
"We've only been up and about the last 4 days… who are the others?"
"The blind girl her name is Madalyne"
As Kitty got a good look at the girl she looked to be around 14 years of age with one side of her head shaved the other half of her red hair in dreads and a strip of cloth around her eyes she gasped "Jean?"
"No my names Madalyne." said the girl "Pietro keeps telling me I look like a younger version of this Jean grey but unfortunately I cant see it for myself… "
"How did you lose your eyesight?"
"I don't know I woke up blind"
"Oh…"
"My names Pamela." said another red headed girl who's body was covered with leaves
"I'm Shola" said the black boy smiling…
"Well you guys are welcome to join my crew."
"Tribe." said Pietro absent mindedly
"Huh?"
"They call groups bigger than 10 a tribe round these parts … "
"Really?"
"Yeah you need a banner representing your tribe as well as a domain of your own"
"Well we have the domain," said Kitty "we just need a name and a banner…how about Lances legion?"
"Lame!" said Tabitha "I say the neo brotherhood."
"That's even lamer!!!" said Kurt "how about x---"
"Noooo!!!! No way! we are not calling ourselves x geeks!" said Lance "we need something cutting edge something that stands out…"
"Grey wolf." said Refrax
"Grey wolf?" Asked Buff
"Well yeah I'm a warhammer 40k nut and the space wolves are cool and besides I wolves are top dogs in the canine family"
"But grey is so dull! Blue, green or red would be better!" said Jenni
"I got it the crimson wolves!" Said Lance "Wolves gathered together are a pack and we're like a pack and red usually signifies dangerous… and we have some dangerous skills…"
"You know… it works." said Kitty
The group started to grin "the crimson wolves it is! now then whats the next plan tribe leader!" asked Radius
"We fortify and fix up and see what is needed to become self seficient"
"Give me some seeds and I can make stuff that takes months grow in days" said Pamela
"Between me and maddie we can fix the gate up…" said Shola
"I have an idea for creating a pump we could use to filter the water!" said Peter
The newly formed tribe talked into the early hours of the morning…with renewed hope and vigor things maybe screwy but they realised they had each other…
