Xavier's-

Kurt let out a tired yawn as he bamfed into the kitchen for a late night snack. He needed to regain his energy after snuggling with Emma.

Kurt scratched his fuzzy back as he searched through the fridge for anything worth eating.

'Uch. Zhere's never anyzhing worth eating in here.' Kurt muttered to himself. 'Ooh, pie!'

Kurt took a bite out of the leftover pie, only to spit it back out again.

'Eww! Boysenberry.' Kurt winced as he scraped the remnants from his tongue.

Kurt was so immersed in his search for comestibles that he didn't notice a certain blonde figure sidle into the room. It was Emma. She was wearing a silken robe over her already revealing nightwear. She needn't have worn either, as she would have looked just the same naked.

'Kurt…' Emma purred as she lay against the doorframe seductively. 'Come to bed. It's cold up there without you.'

Kurt sighed heavily and rested his head against the fridge.

'Emma, liebe. I need to get my energy back up. You're tiring me out.'

'You say that like it's a bad thing.' Emma purred as she pressed herself against her fuzzy boyfriend. 'Now come on, I want smoochies.'

Kurt was about to follow Emma when he smelt something unusual in the air. Something like… cooking meat.

'Do you smell zhat?' Kurt asked. 'It smells like barbeque.'

'That's silly.' Emma scoffed. 'What kind of person would have a barbeque at this time of morning?'

'Logan!' Kurt gasped.

'Logan?' Emma blinked. 'I don't think he'd…'

'No, look!' Kurt replied as he indicated a smouldering Logan struggling to walk into the room.

'Oh God!' Emma gasped as she put her hand to her mouth. 'Look at the mess he's making of the floor!'

Kurt ran to the smoking Canadian and helped him to a seat.

'Mien Gott! Vhat happened?'

'It was Scott…' Logan coughed. 'He blasted me. Musta been under Jean's control. No… wasn't Jean. Said her name was… Maddie?'

'The bitch!' Emma snarled. 'I knew something was up with Jean ever since the fight with the Brotherhood. She must have taken Jean's place.'

'But vhere is Jean?' Kurt wondered.

'I say we wake everybody up and go find them.' Emma replied seriously. 'Mr Logan, will you get healed up in time to join us?'

'I'd damn well hope so.' Logan winced as he held his side. 'I wanna give that witch a piece o' my mind fer turnin' me into barbeque.'

'Kurt, you look after Mr Logan while I gather the others, okay?' Emma instructed.

'Got it, liebe.' Kurt nodded as Emma hurried upstairs to wake the others.

'That's one hell of a lady you got there, elf.' Logan coughed with a slight smirk. 'She'll make a great leader some day. She's got a solid head on her shoulders.'

'And the rest of her body isn't all zhat bad, either.' Kurt added with a chuckle.

Elsewhere-

Meanwhile, at the top-secret lab that Sinister used as his headquarters, the villain was fully aware of the goings-on with the X-Men.

Madelyne Pryor removed the makeshift Cerebro helmet and turned to regard her boss.

'It's just as you said, boss.' The telekinetic redhead reported as she got up off her seat. 'The X-Men are already scrambling to try and rescue their precious little redhead. Pity we've got her locked up safe and snug in one of those vat thingies, huh?'

'Indeed, Madelyne.' Sinister nodded as he turned to regard the vat that held an unconscious Jean Grey. 'Ms Grey will serve me well for many more of my experiments.'

'You looking to make an army of redheads?' Maddie snickered.

'I prefer not to repeat myself in my experiments.' Sinister explained. 'Perhaps I will splice Ms. Grey's DNA with that of other mutants.'

'Ooh, great!' Maddie grinned as she clapped her hands excitedly. 'Does that mean I get to go on another hunting trip?'

'Not just yet, my dear.' Sinister answered thoughtfully. 'Let us take care of the X-Men first.'

'I've been wanting to get my hands on those idiots for months.' Maddie growled as she cracked her knuckles. 'Especially Emma Frost. God, I hate that bitch.'

'I believe you have history with Ms. Frost.' Sinister deduced in a deadpan voice.

'I stole her boyfriend.' Maddie shrugged. 'No big. Just your regular muscle-bound stud.'

'Ah yes, Young Mr Shaw.' Sinister nodded. 'I had quite a time using his DNA in my experiments. I wonder what kind of offspring will be produced when I splice his DNA with Ms. Grey's?'

'I'll leave you to it, boss.' Maddie sniffed. 'You're getting that faraway look in your eyes again. The kind of look you get when you're about to concoct another diabolical plan.'

'Why Miss Pryor…' Sinister said, clutching his chest theatrically. 'You wound me so.'

'Okay, now that is just scary.' Maddie shivered. 'Since when did you have a sense of humour?'

'I am very well-known for my sense of humour actually.' Sinister commented with a chuckle. 'Or have you forgotten my little experiment with that Morlock boy?'

'The one with the spikes.' Maddie remembered, an evil smile appearing on her face to match that of her boss. 'Now that was funny.'

Sinister noticed a flashing light on a nearby console.

'Perhaps you had gather Young Mr Summers.' Sinister commented. 'It seems that the X-Men have arrived sooner than I anticipated.'

'Ja wohl.' Maddie saluted as she marched to find the mind-controlled Scott.

'And remember, try not to damage their bodies too much…' Sinister added. 'I may have further use for their DNA.'

The roof-

Slowly, the X-Men disembarked from the Velocity. Nobody knew what to expect from Maddie and the mind-controlled Scott. Along with Emma, Kurt, and a newly healed Logan were Rogue, Kitty, Piotr, and Ororo.

'I can't like, believe that Scott would turn his back on us.' Kitty shook her head. 'It's just not like him.'

'Preachin' to the choir, Kit.' Rogue nodded in agreement. 'Scott was always the most level-headed of us.'

'Keep it down, you two.' Logan hissed. 'Who knows what kind of sensors they have.'

'You're right to be so cautious, Logan.' A voice confirmed in the Canadian's head.

'They're here!' Logan yelled. 'Everybody go for cover!'

Everybody did as they were told and dove for cover as Maddie blasted through the roof beneath them.

'I knew it was you, bitch!' Emma snarled as she shifted into her diamond form. 'I can't believe I didn't realise it sooner!'

'You always were the dumb one, Emma.' Maddie snorted. 'Scott, be a honey and kill them all, would you?'

Scott merely nodded silently as he reached for his visor.

'Scott, you don't need to do this.' Ororo said. 'Please, come back to us.'

Scott didn't reply as he sent the windrider flying with an optic blast.

'You'd better hope that she ain't seriously hurt, bub.' Logan snarled angrily. 'Or so help me God…'

'Has anybody ever told you that you talk too much, Logan?' Maddie sighed as she picked the Canadian up with her telekinesis.

'W-what're you doing?' Logan asked as he felt his adamantium skeleton being pulled at.

'I'm just going to see how much your healing factor can take.' Maddie smirked cruelly. 'Hanging out with Sinister has kind of turned me into a scientist in my own right. I was wondering if your healing factor could cope with having your adamantium ripped out of your body.'

'You're nuts!' Logan growled.

'Big talk for a soon to be dead man.' Maddie mocked as she raised Logan higher into the air.

The rest of the X-Men gasped in shock as Maddie ripped the adamantium from Logan's skeleton, eliciting a horrific scream from its former owner.

'You're …SICK!' Kitty sobbed. 'You'll pay for that!'

'And who's going to make me?' Maddie laughed arrogantly. 'Ooh. I am sooo like, scared. Please don't like, hurt me.'

'You have no right to talk about Katya like that.' Piotr narrowed his eyes as he sized up against the psychotic telekinetic. 'I shall take you down for hurting my friends.'

'Ooh.' Maddie snickered. 'It looks like the Ruskie's got a spine. Perhaps I'll rip it out.'

Piotr tried to charge at the woman, but he found himself being held back by a telekinetic field.

'Ready to play squash, sweetie?' Maddie grinned as she propelled Piotr back towards Kitty.

Unfortunately for Kitty, she was too busy with Rogue and Kurt taking on Scott and she didn't see Piotr flying towards her.

'Katya! Look out!' Piotr yelled as he changed back into his human form as not to squash Kitty.

Unfortunately, Piotr collided with Kitty, knocking them both to the ground.

Maddie then grinned evilly as she reformed the adamantium she had ripped from Logan into a giant spike.

'Now to get straight to the point.' Maddie chuckled as she drove the spike straight through the pair, impaling them on the ground. 'Okay, bad pun but I'm a bad guy, what do you expect?'

Maddie then surveyed the carnage that she had wrought. Logan, Ororo, Kitty and Piotr were down. Scott had taken care of Rogue and Kurt. All that was left was Emma.

Scott went to let rip with an optic blast but Maddie held up her hand, stopping him.

'No, let me.' The redhead said. 'Every diamond has a flaw and I want to see where Emma's is.'

'Bring it, bitch.' Emma snarled as she charged at her opponent.

Maddie didn't even blink an eye as her telekinesis picked up an iron spike and drove it through Emma's chest, shattering her to pieces.

Maddie sniffed in derision and dusted off her hands.

'And I thought the X-Men were supposed to be bada-AAAARRRGHHH!'

'ENOUGH!' A voice boomed in Maddie's head. 'You have taken down the X-Men, now you have to answer to me.'

Maddie's evil grin just grew bigger at the sight of Professor Xavier's astral form floating before her.

'Uh-oh. Daddy's home…'

TBC…

Maddie Vs Professor Xavier. 'Nuff said. Let's not forget about Jean in this little story. I'm sure that she won't be too pleased to find out what has going on once she escapes from Sinister's clutches. Uh-oh. I think I just gave away next chapter's surprise. Heh-heh…
