Authers Note: This is a fic I have resurrected because I decided to give it another try. Please tell me what you think.
A motorcycles roars on a dark street at very fast speeds, till it pulls off to a dark building, and stops. The driver climbs off and removes his helmet.
"Well this is the place," Logan said to himself then starts to sniff, and looks shocked. "Yuriko, that is her" he said rushing to the building and cutting through the metal door.
Inside Logan finds himself at the beginning of a long corridor. He looks around when something catches his eye. A beautiful woman in a geisha outfit. "Yuriko" Logan said with a smile.
"Hello Logan, come to me" she said smiling, when suddenly she is pulled away. "What?!! Help Logan" She says as she is pulled down another hallway screaming.
In rage Logan follows growling but suddenly is hit in the head with some device and falls down. The woman walks over and tears the dress off to reveal battle armor.
"I knew he'd come" she smirked. "Get him ready for the hunt," she commanded as two men grabbed him and took him away.

Several hours and several hundred miles away.....
"Well we're here in lovely.." Jean said then looked around at the desolate countryside next to the orphanage. "Nebraska" she finished as she turned to Scott and Alex.
"Yeah if that's what you want to call it," Alex quipped. "No water for miles, which means no surfing."
"Well at least you didn't have to grow up here" Scott said. "Now we might as well go in," he said as he walked over to the door.
Unknowingly they are being watched. A shadowy figure spies them through a camera and thinks. He focuses first on the red head in the Yellow shirt and blue jeans. "That must Ms. Grey" he says then takes a look at the blond boy wearing the Hawaiian shirt. "Oh Young Alex Summers, my how you've grown." He then finally takes a look at the tall brown haired boy with the red sunglasses. "Oh and welcome home my little Cyclops." He said with a smile then got up. "Time to meet my guests" he said as he rose and his shadow changed shape. Another person enters the room. He looks at them and says, "Be ready" then walks out.
Meanwhile back outside Scott buzzed the door for the 5th time. "God damn it" he moaned. "This guy brings us all the way out here, and he doesn't even have the nerve to come answer the door."
"Calm down" Scott Jean said as the door began to open. "Look here he is now" she said as the door opened to reveal a middle-aged gentlemen in a suit and glasses.
"Oh hello you must be Scott Summers, my how you've grown, and this is your brother Alex" he said to Scott. "Oh by the way, you probably don't remember me but I'm Dr. Nathaniel Essex, we talked on the phone, and I have run this orphanage for many years. Oh and please come in" He said gesturing them as the three then entered.
"Right I think I remember you, and by the way this is our friend Jean Grey." Scott said. "So you said on the phone you have information about our parents, but after all these years?"
"Well it is possible please follow me into my office" he gestures but then stops Jean. "I'm so sorry Ms. Grey but the contents of this meeting involve things which can only be disclosed to family."
"Oh I understand" Jean said then sat down in the lobby. As the other three walked into the room. After the door had closed a footstep was heard and a small child walked in. "Hello little one" Jean said. The kid looked scared then ran off. "Wait Jean said getting up to follow him through a couple of rooms until from behind she was knocked out and then picked up and taken away.
Meanwhile in the office the boys listened to Mr. Essex but grew impatient.
"Hey man you said you had answers, but all you've done so far is avoid the issue," Alex snapped.
"Calm down Alex" Scott said then turned to Essex. "But seriously you called us out here, now show us why."
"I thought you'd never ask" Essex said with a laugh then pressed a button and two darts hit the boys. They tried to react but quickly passed out. His eyes turned red as he looked over them.

New York-Undisclosed location.
Kitty Pryde moaned as she started to see the bright light as her eyes slowly opened. "Where am I" she asked allowed as she looked around the large room, made of metal and saw on another bed was Bobby still asleep. She quickly got out of her bed and ran over to shake him awake.
"Five more minutes" Bobby moaned turning over again.
"Bobby get up, we're like in this weird place" she yelled then slapped him and he immediately arose.
"I'm up, I'm up" he said. "Hey you hit me, what's the big idea?"
"Uh like look around."
Bobby took a minute to take up his surroundings. "Where the hell are we the death star?" he said getting up.
"Like I don't know, but I say we get out before we find out the wrong way" Kitty said as she grabbed his arm. But suddenly the doors opened to reveal Magneto.
"Oh so I see you have finally awaken," he said blankly. The two stood ready for a fight, only to be chuckled at. "Oh now really, if I was going to hurt you, I would already of done it."
"Good point" Bobby said.
"Oh yeah, maybe your just keeping us alive as hostages" Kitty fumed.
"Another good point" Bobby said.
"Oh please child, hostages for who" Magneto chuckled. "I'm sorry to tell you this, but it seems that your fellow X-men are unavailable at the moment."
"What did you do" she snarled at him, ready to pounce but held back by Bobby.
"Nothing but save your lives" he snarled back. "And anyway, I am just as curious as you of who did this to Charles and the others. Now if you two will follow me, I can show you what seems to of happened" he said and started walking away, Bobby started to follow.
"What are you doing" Kitty snapped.
"Hey what do we got to lose?" he said grabbing her arm.
"Alright" she sighed as the two followed Magneto into the corridor.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Meanwhile in an unknown location Charles Xavier slowly awakes. "Where am I" he moans then tries to use his telepathy.
"Don't bother brother, that collar nullifies your powers" a voice said that Charles soon saw as his brother Cain, also known as the Juggernaut. Juggernaut then grabbed him by his neck and held him up. "Now if you thought you were crippled now, just wait till I'm done with you" he growled as he readied for a punch.
Suddenly a white light flashed throughout the room blinding Cain, and pushing him down. After a few seconds the light subsided. Cain looked around the room Charles was gone. "NOOOOO" Cain screamed. "It's not fair I was so close this time."
~~~~~~~~~~~
Over on the other side of the building Amara finally awakes to find herself bound and collared.
"So the princess is finally up is she," an accented voice said, that reminded Amara, slightly of her old friend Rahne, except this was Irish, and Rahne was Scottish. She looks up to see a red headed girl staring at her.
"Who are you, why are you doing this" Amara asked.
"Oh don't yee be whining to me lass, the names Theresa Cassidy, but yee can call my Siryn" Theresa said. "As for why we're holding you. Well Uncle Tom says a princess such as yourself will bring us a good deal of coin on the open market."
"Open market?" Amara asked wondering what the girl was talking about.
"Oh well girlie, that means that we're going to auction you off to the highest bidder to any royal prince, or rich pervert we can find" she said in a matter of fact way.
"But why, what did I ever do to you."
"Well nothing I guess, but as Uncle Tom says, you got to do what you can to survive."
"Where are your parents?"
"Dead I suppose, but Uncle Tom takes care of me, he protects me from mutant haters, so I do what he says."
"Please let me go, by treating me this way, your no better then those mutant haters" Amara said which caused Theresa to give a strange look, followed by a brief silence."
"Uhh I've got to go, my Uncle probably be needing me" she said and abruptly left the room.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In a dark room a man hidden by shadows over looks a monitor. The monitor shows the battle the X-Men were involved in the previous night in New York City. The man smiled with pleasure as he watched Xavier get captured, then Storm and Beast elimination, and the abduction of Amara. But as the footage ended he frowned to see that Black Tom didn't finish the job.
"The fools, they left two of the X-men" he snarled as he watched Magneto's arrival. "Now Magneto has them, this could prove to be a liability in my plan. Shadowcat and Iceman must be eliminated" he thought, then picked a near by phone. "Hello, Mr. Trask" he said. "No it doesn't matter who I am, but I have some information for you" he grinned.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Back at Magneto's headquarters, he has shown the footage to Kitty and Bobby.
"Now as you can see, from these Penn Station Security Cameras, you X-Men were led into a trap" he explained as he turned off the monitor in his main operations center.
"Yeah but like it's so weird, why would all these people get organized together" Kitty wondered.
"It is very strange, and each person seemed to capture at least one of the X-Men" Magneto said. "And you tell me that both Cyclops and Jean Grey left on a trip just the day before?"
"Yeah and so did Logan" Bobby said. "He got some mail, started acting so weird, then took off to places unknown."
"Interesting, and where did the others go."
"Like to Nebraska, to some orphanage that Scott grew up in" Kitty said which immediately made Magneto act strange.
"Wait a minute, this new information has made me come to believe this strange turn of events is no coincidence, and I believe that a greater outside power is directing them, and I intend to find out who."
"But like wait a minute like why do you care what happens to us" Kitty gave a skeptical look. "Your like not exactly best friends with us X-Men."
"Maybe so child but you are indeed fellow mutants, and although Charles and I have our differences he still is a friend of sorts, but most importantly if such a person orchestrated this plan, he must have greater plans, which could prove to interfere with my own, or prove a danger."
Suddenly the main alarms went off.
"What's going on?" Bobby asked.
"We must be under attack" Magneto said when all the sudden Pyro ran up.
"Boss, boss" he said. "Sentinels, like 4 of them outside.
"Assemble the men and meet me outside" Magneto ordered and Pyro ran down another corridor as Magneto put on his helmet and headed for the door, he turned to the two X-Men. "Well are you coming," he said. The two gave each other a quick glance and followed him outside, where they met Colossus, Pyro, Sabretooth, and Gambit, who were hunkered down trying to fend off the giant robots. Gambit flung cards in the air, to no avail, while Pyro's fire was being repulsed. Colossus attempted to grab ones foot but is kicked into a wall. Magneto quickly flew up and engaged one. He lifted it up and started slamming it into the ground. Pyro became a little too bold and attacked head on only to be zapped by a blast and knocked out. Kitty ran in and phased both of them out of the line of fire.
"Don't hold back," Magneto yelled to the other mutants. "Go all out."
Iceman then went out and started firing a huge ice blast freezing a sentinel solid, then stepped back to catch his own breath.
"Nice moves kid" Gambit smirked as he flew by him and grabbed the frozen sentinel bare handed, thus charging each. "Hit the deck he said as he pushed Bobby back before it exploded
"Nice moves yourself" Bobby commented. "But don't call me kid."
Meanwhile Kitty after taking care of Pyro saw Colossus start to get up and ran to him.
"Throw Me," She yelled to him.
"Excuse Me," He said in his rich accent.
"You heard me," she yelled. "Throw me at the top of that thing" she said and before he could respond, "Just trust me."
He shrugged and picked her up as she tucked up, then threw her hard so she reached the head, phasing through she shorted out the central brain, she quickly then jumped out of its head and floated to the ground as it fell onto the building. In the mean time Sabretooth had jumped on the remaining sentinel and overtime was able to decapitate it.
Magneto finally finished off the remaining sentinel, and landed. "Excellent work all of you, but we have little time now, this location has been compromised" he told his Acolytes, then turned to Shadowcat and Iceman. "You too were very impressive, now I give you this offer, and that is to join me, at least for now, till we resolve this situation. And I think this most recent attack, is a part of it all."
The two did a little huddle.
"Do we really have a choice" Bobby said.
"Probably not" Kitty commented. "But he could be helpful in finding the others."
"Yeah he does have the resources, and it would only be temporary."
"Yeah until we contact Mr. Logan or Scott and Jean."
The two turned to Magneto. "We accept your offer for now" Kitty said and Bobby nodded.
"Excellent" Magneto smiled as the two looked at each other wondering what exactly have they gotten themselves into.
This fic has most of the X-Men but at the same time is more a focus on Iceman and Shadowcat, and it's not romantic, well not at this time at least. It's more of an adventure involving them. Please Read and Respond.
