Chapter two

Theressa dropped down into the sewer. Logan, Angel and Jean were right behind her as they came in one by one and Jean closed the hatch. She didn't know what it was about this place, but Theressa felt she belonged down here and that she was needed and even loved. Now, she knew that her father loved her and her girls needed her but they were growing up and didn't need her as much as they did in the past. Ever since Chris died she felt that a part of her died with him and maybe even a little bit when Xavier died as well. She felt that she had lost apart of herself and hopefully with the Morlocks she could find it again.

Where are the girls?> Jean asked telepathically.

Down here.> Theressa replied.

Just then a figure stepped out of the shadows. He was about Wolverine's size and had greenish color skin and wore brown clothes.

"Who's that?" Angel asked because when he had come down here the first time a woman had been where the man now stood.

"Caliban." Theressa replied to Warren and greeted the figure all in on word.

"I sensed you coming. There was no need to sneak around Black Fox."

"Who says I was sneaking? I knew you would e waiting for me, Caliban."

"Who have you brought with you?" Caliban asked looking at Jean and Archangel.

"Friends, mutants like us. Archangel and Jean Summers and I believe you have met my father Wolverine." Theressa replied to Caliban's question. She surprised Angel and Jean because she spoke to the mutant as if they had been friends for a long time but as far as they knew the two had only just met.

"May we enter, Caliban?" Theressa asked finally.

"You may." He replied as he stepped to the side and allowed them to continue down the tunnel.

They came to a dead end which Jean thought they were lost but Theressa knocked six times and the wall lifted up. As they walked in they saw tons of mutants moving about the place. Some, their powers had manifested in a way that they could not pass as human. Others could and yet they still lived beneath the streets as if they were rats searching for a home.

"Mom! Angel! Grandpa!" Andi said as she came running up to them to greet them and Mian wasn't far behind her twin sister.

"Hi, girls." Theressa said with a smile that only came from a mother's joy of seeing her daughters happy. She threw her arms around them and embraced them at the same time. Then the girls went to Logan and Mian went to Angel.

"Did you bring anything to eat?" Andi asked her mom. She had not eaten breakfast and now she wished she had. They had been down there for the past day, now almost two days.

"No, I'm sorry Andi but there were too many troops around for me to take anything. I'll go back up later and try again but I did bring you something else." Theressa moved out of the way, stood by her father, to reveal Jean.

"Antie Jean!" Mian cried in disbelief.

"Hi Mian, Andi." Jean gave both girls a huge hug and then everyone heard.

"It is good to see you again, Mrs. Summers." Everyone turned their heads to the left and saw Storm, Beast and a second woman who wore an eye patch over her right eye.

"Orroro, Hank! It's so good to see you again. I've missed you very much." Jean sad i greeting the two ex-X-men in the same way she had the girls. Then she moved on to the second woman and said "You must be Calisto."

"I am and I can only assume that you are Jean Grey, wife to Cyclops."

"How did you guys get down here and how long have you been down here?" Jean asked Theressa changing the subject. Wolverine answered Jean's question.

"Well, it all started when I had gotten up for a midnight snack and it was a good thing too because we wouldn't have gotten out of that place in time, other wise."

Flash Back

Logan sat in the kitchen eating hot wings and drinking the last of his beers that he had stored in the cabinet. He was almost certain that Theressa knew nothing about the beer but he could be wrong. After all she was his daughter and was almost exactly like him. As he took a sip of his beer he heard foot steps coming from out side and smelt the stench of men who didn't belong here but were none the less. Then to confirm his thoughts he heard P 90's being cocked and ready to fire. Wolverine jumped up and ran out of the room just before the troops tried to pump him full of lead.

Logan went into his daughter's bed room and woke her up. "Theressa, wake up!"

"What? Dad? What's wrong?" Theressa asked barley awake.

"We've got to go now!"

"What? Why?"

"Troops and their in the kitchen and probably everywhere else."

"Damn!" Theressa said getting out of bed and running across the hall to her daughters' bed room.

"Andi, Mian. Get up girls we've got to go!"

"Now, why?" Mian asked.

"No time to explain now let's go and no, Andi there's no time to change. We've got troops coming threw the kitchen window. Let's move it girls."

Andi and Mian both jumped out of bed and ran out the door and met Wolverine, Angel, Knole and Nethogent in the hallway. "We can use the passage next to your room Logan!" Angel said now that he knew what was wrong. Logan nodded his head and took everyone, except Theressa to the passage, which was discussed as the wall next to Logan's room.

Theressa ran into her room to grab her jacket and then ran back out and into the passage. "Where to now Logan?" Knole asked as they continued to run.

"Well, the way I figure it we'll go under ground for awhile. At least that way we can be safe from the immediate danger. The morlocks live down there too." Wolverine replied as they came to a dead end with only a swear cap at their feet.

"Who are the morlocks?" Theressa asked. She had been with the X-men a long time and she didn't even know what her father was talking about.

"The morlocks," Logan continued as he bent down to unscrew the cap, "are a group of mutants who can't pass as humans by any stretch of the imagination. They take refuge underground where it's safe from humans and the up coming war that I fear is all ready here." Logan lowered himself into the whole and said, "Andi, Mian you girls come down next, then Knole and Nethogent and angel and Theressa will close the hatch. T, link us together." As everyone followed Logan's orders Theressa closed her eyes and linked their minds together and then went down herself and closed the hatch.

As I was saying, Calisto was once the leader of the Morlocks but when she tried to take Cyke as her mate, and had captured Jeannie, Storm interfered and challenged her to a battle Orroro won and is now the leader with Calisto as her right hand. We've had this alliance with the Morlocks for some time now and it's about high time we used it.

End Flash Back

"Then we went up to the surface, not to long ago," Theressa said finishing the story. "And found you and Scott running but you were too far ahead and by the time we had caught up Scott was fighting for his life and you had run off. I knew a short cut threw the alley and that's when we found you."

"Theressa, we've got to find Scott." Jean said knowing that he could be dead by now but also knew that he wouldn't go with out a fight.

"I know Jean and we will." Theressa replied and then turned to Storm. "Storm, could I see Caliban for a moment? I think I have an idea as how to find Scott."

"Yes, of course." Storm replied and looked at Calisto. "You will go and get Caliban and the guard the entrance. You know what to do incase anyone comes." Calisto looked as if she was about to argue but when she saw the look on Orroro's face she thought twice and went to do as she was told.
