A/N:thanks for the reviews. hope you like it. enjoy


Logan, still wearing his green cloak,walked out of the elevator and headed to Xavier's office but just as he was about to go in, Storm stopped him.

"Good your back."

"Somethin' wrong?" Logan asked with a hint of anger in his voice.

"Its Rogue. I think she and Bobby broke up."

"She's got a good head, she'll bounce back." Logan said not worried but something in Storm's voice told him he should be.

"I don't know about that Logan. She's been sitting in the living room for the past hour. I tried to talkto her but she wouldn't respond to me. All I could do was get everyone out of the room and leave her alone. I didn't know what else to do."

Logan nodded his head as he listened to Storm. It wasn't like Rogue to be rude, like that, to anyone, well maybe to Pyro but that was different. "I'll talk to her." Logan said as he began to walk off to the living room but Storm stopped him again.

"Logan, are you all right?"

Yeah, Storm. Just a little pissed. That's all."

"You wanna talk about it?"

"No. I don't." Logan said beginning to turn but Storm stopped him once more.

"Logan."

"Yeah, Storm."

"Lose the cloak." She said walking off with a smile. Logan took a deep breath, in an attempt to calm down, took the green, fire singed, blood stained cloak off and headed to the living room. A momet later Logan found Rogue sitting alone on the window seat, looking out the window.

"Storm says you didn't talk to her."

Rogue turned her head and stood up at the sight of Logan and said, "Hey Logan."

"Hey, kid. Now what's this about you not talking to Storm? What's going on?"

"I told Bobby I needed a break."

"How come?" Logan asked and then saw tears forming in Rogue's eyes. A few moments passed as Rogue fought back the tears and finally said, "A bunch of us were thinking about going to Worthington Labs to check out whats going on."

"Okay, where are you going with this?"

"I was wondering if I should take the cure."

"Is that what you want?"

"I want to be able to touch people. A hug, a kiss. Youdon't know what its like to be afraid of your powers and not get close to thepeople you love."

"Ido. Listen Rogue,I'm not your father. I can't tell you what to do but whatever you do makesure its what you want and you don't do it because of some boy. If this is what you want then I'll be behind you one hundred percent but you've got to know there ain't no going back."

Rogue nodded her head completly understanding and no going back was what she was counting on.

"So whose all going?"

"Jubilee, me, Kitty, Peter and Bobby."

"All right kiddo, if this is what you want then go for it but be sure its what you want. I've gotta go see Xavier about somethin' but let me know when you leave."

"Actually Logan," Jubilee said coming into the room in her yellow trench coat, blue jeans and black tank top. "We're headed out now. You ready Rogue?"

"Yeah, Jubs, I'll be there in a sec."

Jubilee nodded her head and as soon as she shut the door Rogue siad, "I know what your going to say."

"You do?"

"Yeah, your gonna say be careful and don't do something your gonna regret."

"Your right. I was gonna say that."

"Well, I'll be all right, Logan. I'm a big girl."

"I know, you are kid. You better get going."

"See ya later Logan." Rogue siad as she walked out the door leavng Logan to move through the door that conjoined the living room with Xavier's office and when he got in there, Scott found scott yelling at Xavier.

"why'd you send him instead of me? I should have gone! I could have gotten Jean back!"

"No you couldn't have Cyke." Logan said calmly announcing his enterence into the room although he was sure that Xavier knew he was there.

Sott turned to Logan as quickly as he could and glared at Logan as he said, "you don't know that!"

logan heard a challenge in Scott's voice, which was nothing new. the two men had been at odds from the get go and there had been hope that since Jean was gone, the men would no longer have anything to fight over and become friends. However, that hope was shattered when Jean was found to be alive and the men started acting like middle school boys again.

"Scott..." Xavier began but Logan said,"No chuck, he's right and maybe he could have brought Jean back. Maybe he could have snapped her out of this trance that she's in just by speeking a few words and allowing her to hear his voice. Or maybe, just maybe, you would have gone in there, found Jean, try to get her back, get you ass handed to you and die trying to save her cause Ol' bucket head ain't gonna let her go with out a fight."

"How could she mean so much to him?" Xaiver asked Logan as if he had all the answers.

"Don't know but I think she's his secret weapon of sorts." Logan said no longer yelling because of who he was talking to

"What else did you find?" Xaiver asked. Scott had backed off since Logan had put him in his place for the time being and was now walking around the room trying to calm down but it wasn't really working.

"Magneto's got an army like nothin' this world ever seen. He said to tell you that we better not get in his way, not if..."

"...he is to continue his search for hope." Xavier said cutting off Logan, not because he had read Logan's mind but because he knew Eric. He had told Eric one time, when this had all started, when Jean was speaking against Sentor Kelly, that he was searching for hop and Eric had promised to bring it if the xmen didn't get in his way. Well Xavier wasn't foolsh enough to force his xmen to stand by and watch Magneto destroy the human race. "Eric has given us a warnin and whatever we do with it will determine his next course of action."

"and what exactly are we going to do with it?" Scott asked finally calmed down enough where he could talk with out yelling.

"I'm going to visit a place I haven't been in a long time. Logan, I'd like you and Strom to accompany me. i have a feeling we are going to run into trouble."
MEANWHILE:

Jean walked down a street that she hadn't walked down since she was nine. The last time she had walked these streets was when she had been taken away to the school where two men had helped her with her powers and then something happened and one of the men left but the other stayed and cared for her as if she was his own. Xavier had taken good care of her but now he wanted to control her or at least that is what Magneto had told her. She had all ready been confused enough but when the Wolveirne showed up she didn't know what to believe. Would Xavier try this hard to conrtol her if that was his true goal? She didn't know the answer to that question, even though she knew just about everything else. She had to retreet to the only place she knew, the only place she could think and sort things out.

Jean mentally opened the door and walked in expecting to see the same thing she had when she had left years ago but that was not the case. As she walked around she began to feel as if she were in a completely different house and that her world had once more been turned upside down. the den was where the living room should be and the living room was where the dinning room should have been, TV and all. Jean walked into the den, sat down and simply looked around her and said, "I have no home."


A/N:I hope you liked it. This was easier to write than some of the other chapters have been. I don't really have much to say on this chapter. other than please review. Remember that the underline sentences are quotes from the trailers. I forgot to do this for chapters 16 and 17 bacuse in 15 there wasn't any direct quotes. so I'll try and go back and underline the quotes. Anyway, please review
