Chapter 8: Explaination

Amanda and the X-men crew sat in the front room. They had had a very long discussion as to each other's origins. "So, your called the 'X-men?'"

Professor Xavier nodded. "If you like, I could probe your mind, that might help us figure out why you're here."

Amanda thought for a minute, "Okay."

The professor closed his eyes and focused his mind on Amanda's past thoughts. He saw the princess, no Sailor Saturn, holding the star crystal, holding off an attack. He watched as the her and the other girls cast their attacks into the princess. Then, nothing.

The professor opened his eyes. "Strange, but I think I have the answer."

Amanda looked at him. "What, could you tell me?"

The professor nodded knowingly. "Do you remember, right before everything went dark, a cracking sound?"

Amanda thought hard, "Yes, I think I do."

The professor nodded knowingly. "I belive you come from a totally different dimension than our own. I think that during the attack I saw, the princess was a little too stressed, and she inadvertly overstrained herself and the star crystal, causing it to shatter. I think that because the crystal shattered, it opened multiple gateways to different worlds, and you were sucked into one of them."

"Oh, but what were those flashes of light?" Amanda asked confused.

He thought for a moment. "I think it could have been fragments of the star crystal."

Amanda nodded in understanding. Then something hit her. "But, how do I get home?!"

Everyone closed their eyes in thought. "Maybe, since the crystal got you here, you need the crystal to get back." Scott said.

Amanda thought for a moment 'it does make sense, I guess.' "But the fragment could be anywhere."

The professor looked determined. "Gather the rest of the X-men, we are going to search for the shard!"

********************************************************************************

Magneto and Virgus were in the city. "Tell me again why we're looking through this stinking town." Magneto growled.

Virgus looked solemn. "I was told to gather the star crystal piece that followed that girl here."

Just then Quicksilver came up. "I didn't see anything, and I've circled the city at least 5 times."

Magneto glared at him. "Well, don't just stand there, keep searching!"

Quicksilver nodded and ran off.

********************************************************************************

The X-men were scattered throughout the city. Storm and Sailor Mercury were on the roof of a very tall building, "I have no idea where that thing could be." Mercury said saddly.

Suddenly, Storm saw a white blur. "I don't eighter, but I've found us a lead."
