Scott watched from the shadows as the two rangers boarded the X-jet. It brought pain to his heart to see them. Lord how he longed for Jean. Hopefully they would find her there.

Jen settled into the chair. Wes knelt down in front of her.

"You sure you want to do this." He asked with concerned.

"Yes, I've got to do this. If I don't I'll never get her out of my head so we can get on with our lives."

"And I'll be there with you." Wes said kissing her hand.

"We're getting ready to take off. You should get buckled in." Logan said towering above them.

"All right." Wes said taking the seat next to Jen.

"You can't sit there. That's the navigator's seat. I'm sorry Wes, you need to be in the back with the others. Jen's safer up here."

Wes looked confused but took Logan's advice. He took a place next to Eric sighing heavily.

"You trust these people?" Eric asked.

"I don't know anymore." Wes said shaking his head. "This has all been so strange."

"I don't know, being a ranger is a pretty strange way to live." Eric said smiling at him.

Wes snickered.

"I see your point." He agreed.

"Good, the sooner we get this over with and find this Jean Grey, the sooner we can go home."

"Coming up on destination co-ordinates." Scott said into the intercom.

Jen looked out the window at the desolate wildereness beneath them. Suddenly the plane lurched.

"What's happening?" Jen asked Rogue who was navigating.

"I-I don't know but brace yourself it's going to be a bumpy landing." Rogue said nervously as she scanned the computer screen.

The plane lurched and dipped dangerously toward the ground. Scott furiously pulled up on the controls to no avail.

"We're going down!" Scott yelled. "Brace for impact!"

But suddenly the plane began descending slowly. Scott looked down to see Magneto controlling their descent.

Logan also saw it. "Well this is going to be an interesting day." He quipped.

Scott threw him a look. "Not funny."

"Am I laughing?" Logan answered smartly.
