Chapter 9

"It's freakin' freezing out here!" Taylor seethed once she'd left the safety of the plane. "Whoever this chick is, she'd better be worth frost bite or I will, personally, see to it that she never makes it back to the jet." Logan shook his head in amusement. They'd left both Bobby and Rogue behind. Unhappy about it as they were, the couple had been too shaken up to travel after their encounter with a real live demon.

"She is, Ice," he said gruffly as he looked around his surroundings. He sniffed the cool air hoping to get a whiff of Jean, but got nothing but the scent of his comrades. Taylor shook her head and continued to walk. She was a bit uncomfortable seeing as how they'd convinced her to dawn an X-suit. The leather part was really cool and she admitted that. But the moving part was a bitch and it was really formfitting. Something Logan had pointed out with a roguish grin.

She glanced around the snowy mountains for the first time and took in their beauty. She'd never seen anything like it. She turned away from them and looked towards a forest of trees ahead of her and felt herself losing her breath as she had a flashback. This was where it would happen.

Flashback…………

"Kurt's going to be hurt!"

...She saw Nightcrawler performing some of the amazing agility tricks he'd told her about, but he wasn't doing them for show. He was fighting something, someone…

"He's going to be attacked by some guy, but I don't know who. I don't think he was alone because I saw the X-jet. It was very cold, there was a forest, lots of water, and I saw mountains in the background."

...She saw a forest and lots of water. There was ice and it was very cold, but she stopped thinking about it once she saw a dagger hit Nightcrawler in the chest...

"Magneto."

"No," she breathed once she could speak again. She whipped around looking for the others. However, the only person she could see was Cyclops. She ran over to him as fast as she could.

"Ice?" he asked worriedly, adopting the name Wolverine called her by. "What's wrong? What did you see?"

"We have to get Kurt out of here," she said frantically. "Now!" Logan, who hadn't been too far away, appeared suddenly. He had smelled her fear.

"What's wrong?" he asked looking between Cyclops and Ice as though it were Cyclops' fault.

"This is where it is supposed to happen," Ice told them unhappily. "This is where Kurt gets hurt and if we don't do something, it will happen." Cyclops looked to Wolverine sadly.

"We can't," he said brokenly to the other man. "We can't leave her." At Wolverine's slow nod, Taylor lost it.

"You son of a bitch!" she shouted angrily at the two of them.

"Wolverine," Cyclops said warningly looking to the other man.

"I'm not channeling him, you bastard! I'm channeling me! How could you sacrifice Kurt!" she shouted shoving him angrily. Storm came towards them with Nightcrawler in tow.

"What is going on here?" she asked looking between the three of them.

"These dumbass, sons of bitches want to sacrifice Kurt for someone I haven't even met!" Storm looked to the two men.

"We do not!" Cyclops said. "We'll send Kurt back to the jet and he'll wait for us there."

"That's nowhere near as safe as leaving this place! I cannot sit by and watch you condemn someone to death!" she shouted. "No matter how much you love this woman."

"You know nothing about that!" he shouted back, finally losing his temper.

"I do!" she responded with just as much passion. "Because I can feel it!" she put her hand to her heart. "In here. I can feel every ounce of pain and suffering you have, as well as everyone around me right now, and I know how you feel. These aren't even my emotions and I feel them and I deal with them. Right now, I'm carrying your love for this woman and I'm making a choice that I know is for the better," she said moving away from Cyclops and towards Kurt.

"I'm taking him home," she told them resolutely grabbing Kurt's arm and orbing away.
