Disclaimer: Ya know I feel like a scratched C.D. when I say I do not own X-
Men Marvel dose. Carmen however is my character. Anyways on with the story.
X-Mansion:
The meeting has now calmed down since Scott's recent out burst and the Professor once again begins with his explanation. "As I was saying before, that night that Rogue lost control with her powers she was touched by Gambit and learned that he and two other members of the Acolytes are, in a way being forced to work for Magneto. Six months ago Sabertooth took Gambit's sister-in-law, Mercy and now she is being held captive by Magneto. She is however safe and alive."
"You said that there were two other members of the Acolyte team also in this predicament. Are they the two known as Pyro and Colossus?" asked Storm.
"Yes they are. I have learned from Gambit's memories in Rogue's head that Pyro's mother, Carmen was also taken from her home in Australia. Like Mercy she is safe and healthy. However it is Colossus that I am most worried about. Six months ago he came to me seeking my help with his sister Illyana. She is a mutant known as Magik and she has a rare disease known as the Legacy Virus. It is a disease that is known only to target that mutant gene. It is also at this time incurable. I believe that while Colossus was here meeting with me that Magneto took Illyana from her family's farm in Russia."
"What can we do to help Professor?" asked Kurt.
"I am not sure at the moment. I want Rogue and Kitty to go to the park in town tonight and talk to Gambit and Pyro. The two of them are usually at the park late at night. I was unable to find the women using Cerbro so find out if the Acolytes know where the women are being held. If we can find out where the women are being held then we should be able to form a rescue plan."
"Professor I don't like the idea of Rogue and Kitty going into the park at night by themselves to meet with two of the Acolytes. What if they get attacked?" asked Scott.
"I don't think that Gambit and Pyro are going to attack the girls, but I will send Logan and Storm as backup in the x-van. If anything were to go wrong then the girls can call them on their COM links. However," the professor added, "I do not want Logan and Storm interfering with the girls meeting with Gambit and Pyro. You are there as backup and nothing else."
"We understand Professor," said Storm.
"Good the four of you will leave the mansion tonight at 10. Until then you are all free to do whatever you want." And with that the room was cleared with each member of the team thinking of the events to come.
Across Town:
"They have been leaving every night for the last six months to go to the park. I want you to follow them tonight and see what they are up to." The other man in the room nodded his head in agreement and left the room.
X-Mansion Rogue and Kitty's Room:
"Like I wonder if Gambit and Pyro are even going to be at the park tonight. I know that the Professor is a telepath but I don't think that he is a psychic also," Kitty said.
"For the last six months Gambit and Pyro have been walking through the park at night just to get away from Magneto for a little while. Sometimes even Colossus comes with them," Rogue explained. When Kitty just looked at Rogue dumbfounded Rogue explained, "I have Gambit's memories in my head remember."
"Oh. Like what do they do in the park?"
"They form plans on how to get their relatives safely away from Magneto."
"So they know where Magneto is holding their relatives captive?"
"Yes and no. Usually every month they each get to spend a day with their relative but each month the location where they met was changed. However in the last two months they have met their relatives in the same location. Gambit was supposed to meet with Mercy today so if she was still being held in the same place then there is a high chance that the other two are still in the same place."
"So that's why we are going to the park tonight, To make sure that they are all still being held in the same place?"
"That's right."
"What are we going to do if Magneto moved them?"
"I don't know Kitty. Lets get ready to go to the park okay."
Across town:
"Are you going to go with us tonight Piotr?" Remy asked.
"Yeah I need to get away from here for awhile."
"Okay then lets go find John and get out of here."
X-Mansion:
"Like what do you think of this outfit?"
"Does it even matter Kitty? We are just going to talk to them in a park. I highly doubt that they are even going to notice what you are wearing."
"Just pick an out fit the pink shirt with the jean shirt and sandals or the blue shirt jeans and sneakers for a casual effect."
"The outfit with the blue shirt." Rogue said exasperated.
"I am totally going with the other one."
"Then why did you ask my opinion in the first place," Rogue mumbled to herself. "Just hurry up Kitty we have to leave in ten minutes if we want to make it to the park in time."
"Alright I'm ready. We can go now."
Across Town:
The other three had left a few minutes ago, but he knew where they were going, and if he hadn't then he would have used his enhanced senses to find them. If his employer wanted to know what they were up to then he was going to find out one way or another. He was just hoping that he would be allowed to force it out of them.
A/N: Don't worry things are going to start happing pretty fast in the next chapter.
