Okay, right, surry it took so long ta put this chapter up. I had ta try out for the school musical, 42nd Street. Oy. I also started a new story, but don't worry, I will keep workin' on dis one too!

Wolverine and Dagger were suiting up for the battle that was going to take place at Xavier's mansion. Dagger had unveiled his master plan. They were to sneak into the mansion, and then into the computer room. The coordinates of where those places were were from the information from Stryker's files and what Scott had told Dagger. If they could pull this off, they could hypothetically control the whole school and everyone inside of it.

"Hey kid, better take this wit ya, just in case," Wolverine said tossing Dagger a pistol.

"After all these years, you still call me kid. Just like the old times eh?" Dagger commented as he put the gun in its holster at his side.

"Yea, old times," Wolverine was getting annoyed by this kid anymore. All he talked about was the past and how it was. He was so envious that it sickened Wolverine. He would rather kill this Dagger now and get it over with, but if he wanted to do this cleanly he would need his help, for now at least.

"You ready yet kid?"

"Well, are you sure you wanna do this? I mean, we've already gotten rid of Stryker and the X-Men are gone. Can't we just leave and you could teach me the rest of the stuff I need to know and-" He was cut off by Wolverine grabbing him and pushing him against the wall.

"No. We are not going to leave them unpunished. Do you really think they'll leave us alone? They won't they'll hunt us down and try to get information out of us. What do you think they'll do after that? Huh? Kill us, that's what. Look how many they've killed the last time at Alkali Lake. Do you really think they'll offer us any sympathy after all this? Get yer head on strait boy," he said as he dropped him. After Dagger got a few breaths of air he looked at his sensei.

"Wolverine, I'm sorry, you're right. Let's get going."

They got the rest of the stuff they would bring like ropes, few technical machines, and an assortment of weapons like knives, chains and other guns and started to leave.

"How are we gonna get there?" Wolverine asked looking around for a vehicle.

"The same way Stryker got there before," he said leading the way. After about a half a mile walk Wolverine saw what they would be taking to New York, a helicopter. They got in and Dagger, at the controls lifted the craft up and started heading south to their battleground.

They were making good progress at Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters. They got most of the children out of the school, either to their own homes or a hotel, paid for by Professor Xavier. The X-Men had made-up a story, that they had o get some rooms redone and that the school couldn't have anyone there. The kids of course didn't believe them, but were glad for the break in classes for a few days.

"How many are left Storm?" Scott asked.

"Only a few. I think that the Professor should stay with the children."

"Yea, I'll go talk to him," Scott said as he walked off to find his mentor. He found him in his study.

"Hello Scott."

"Good afternoon Professor."

"It's not so good is it? Ah well, I guess the X-Men must fight on without my help, correct?" he asked already knowing what Scoot would ask.

"We just don't want you to get hurt. Who knows what Logan can do?"

"No one, but we do know what he is capable of. Be careful and stay safe. I'll keep the children safe."

"We will Professor and thank you."

Then Professor Xavier wheeled himself out the door to be ready to leave with the children. He didn't know if he would see any of his X-Men, Scott, Jean, Ororo, or Logan, again, but he prayed that they would all stay alive through the ordeal.

I know that was kinda a short chapter, but at least I got through the in-between stuff. Plez review. I'll make the next one better I swear!
