"This simulator of yours is pretty convincing, Beast." Logan said as he started to towel off from testing out Beast's simulator. "Say you got any simulations over-18?"
(Heh heh) "Consider yourself at the top of the list for the Britney and Christina sims." Beast said with a smile as he continued to finish processing the data that he had collected on Wolverine.
"That would be great." Wolverine chuckled as he took a seat on one of the chairs. "Say how come I didn't see one of Ranma in there?"
"Well the reason for that is because I never got the chance to recorded any data on Ranma to create a program on him." Beast said as he turned to face Logan.
"I must say you did finish the program nicely Wolverine, but wasn't it a bit excessive?" Asked Professor from the other side of the room.
"Well Hank's program did say to immobilize the x-men sims. Well they can't get any more immobilize then making them six feet under." Wolverine said jokingly.
"Well I hope you don't pull stuff like that when we are on missions Wolverine." Scott said as he stood next to the wheelchair bound professor.
"You just saying that cause you know of my reputation 'One-Eye'." Wolverine retorted with a smirk as he used the same name Ranma had used before he left the mansion.
"You guys come to the living room quick you got to check out the news!" Bobby yelled out as he ran into the room.
----- Living Room -----
"...President's daughter has been abducted from her room at New Jersey's Princeton University." The blonde news anchor said. "Within forty-five minutes of the abduction a transmission was aired by a known terrorist group known as the 'Brotherhood of Mutants'. This was the transmission aired.
----- Transmission -----
"...one hundred and thirteen mutants. Lives that you humans have killed up to this day. All of which you have done by those monstrosities that you called Sentinels." Magneto said as he sat on a chair that looked more like a throne. "All in your vain attempt to ensure that your hands are not stained with the blood of those who you persecute, for being worthy of natures bestowed gifts, but nature can't be stopped. The evolution is upon us all, and all we want is to be given our rightful place in this world, at the helm of it. We will however show mercy to this foul-mouthed female calf, but only when all of your country's Sentinel programs come to a complete halt. Unlike you we do hold compassion for life, but know this if another blood of a mutant is spilled it will only be spilled after this girls his spilled first....."
----- End Transmission -----
"Good God this is terrible." Scott said as stood with the others in the living room as they watched the news continued on.
"It would seem our course of action is pretty clear." Professor Xavier said as he turned to the others in the room.
"What course would that be. Look I don't like magneto any more then you do, but he just stopped the government from killing mutants ever again." Storm said as she was sitting on the table while swinging her right leg which was crossed over her left.
"No Storm all that Magneto has done nothing, but raise even more tension between human and mutants relations." Professor stated. "The only real solution to this problem is to save the president's daughter before all hopes for a peaceful coexistence is shattered. If we turn our back on this girl now you might as well sign up with Magneto."
"Professor is right this is the only option left." Cyclops said as turned to face everyone. "We have to save her cause this girl is nothing more than a bargaining chip to the Brotherhood."
(Sigh) "I just hope you know what you are doing Professor." Storm stated while not hiding her discomfort in facing the known terrorist group.
"What about you Wolverine? Are you going to be tagging along with us Wolverine?" Jean said as she watched Logan started to walk from the room.
"Well I was hopping to take it easy here in the mansion, but what the hell. It could good for a couple of laughs." Logan said as he passed Scott while puffing away at the cigar, and purposely puffed a large puff of smoke in Scott's face.
"What about Ranma Professor. He is still gone right now." Hank asked.
"For now we will have to do this without Ranma. Cause time is of the essence, and right now I feel having Ranma join us on this mission would affect everyone's moral." Professor stated to everyone before they all filed out of the living room, and not missing the looks everyone had as they left. Leaving him alone in the living room with the TV on, and one other in the room that soon move from its spot on the coach to a new one. Which happened to be Xavier's lap.
(sigh) "Well Eric sure didn't waste anytime in sending someone to kill me now did he Mystique." Xavier said as he started to pet behind the cats ears. "I just wonder what Wolverine plans to do."
----- Elsewhere a house in NY -----
"So tell me how my favorite niece is doing." The older man said with a smile as he hugged the brown haired girl.
"Oh I am doing just great Uncle David so where is everyone?." The brown haired girl smiled happily.
" Well Carol left to pick up the kids at their soccer game they will be back in a few. So how are things down in Berkeley?" David said as he released her from his hug.
"Oh you know how it is hectic as ever. I am just glad I finally got a few weeks off." She said to the older man.
"So where did you get this car?" David said as he was now eyeing the red convertible that his niece came in.
"Uncle you won't even believe me if I told." She said in a tone that simply affirmed that even she still didn't believe it.
"It's not hot is it?" Her uncle said in a serious tone.
"Uncle! No look I even got the pink slip right here." She said as she handed him the slip.
"Well now that is amazing." Her uncle said as he read the paper she handed him. "God must be smiling on you today girl."
"Yeah tell me about it's just to good to be true." She said as is had a few worries about her new car.
"You want me to check it out for you, and see if their is a sheet on this Ranma guy?" He said sensing how she felt about her newly acquired car from the man whose signature was on the slip.
"Would Uncle David." She said meekly.
"Anything for you Lorna, anything." David said smiling at his niece
"Thanks 'DD'." Lorna said mischievously as she saw his anger at her nick name for him.
"Hey what did I tell you about calling me that. I had a hell of a time get those guys to stop at the station because of you." David Dane said he gave her a look that showed he was angry at her, but found it hard to keep as she started to give him a pouting look. "Oh get inside Lorna. So tell me are you still with that guy what his name Alex?" David asked as he ushered his niece into his house.
