And as I promised: This chapter is dedicated to two enthusiastic reviewers Wen1 and Marvlix for they unravelled the mind bending, brain exploding, tongue twisting…okay, okay, they explored the options and truthfully answered the question I put forward to you all in the previous chapter, "Who is the new mystery person?"…or they just guessed who it was and that's that!
Chapter 11: A Gorgeous Woman with a Sense of Taste
Scott was halfway to the zoo. His grip on the steering wheel tightened every mile he grew closer. Why he had instantly left after Jean ran out that door, he didn't know. He'd wanted to run after her but something inside him told him not to.
Why did I choose to go after Taryn rather than Jean? He'd asked himself the question many times on the long and lonely drive.
Because you're scared of facing her, Summers! Duncan's face filled Scott's head.
She would have been better off sticking with me! Duncan's image smirked.
NO! Scott pushed the image away and tried to remember the blissful times of his life, the times when he had not a care in the world. Images flashed through his head, scenes of him smiling and laughing. He always seemed to be with the same person.
The blissful times of my life? The times when I had not a care in the world?
He answered his own questions.
The times when I had Jean.
But he had given up on her, he was scared of the way he felt, of the way he acted around her; carefree and loving.
All the things that make a bad leader. The incident in the Danger Room was all Jean's fault, I'm not a bad leader!
Duncan reappeared in his mind.
No you're just a bad boyfriend.
Scott shook his head.
"And what right do you have to tell me I'm a bad boyfriend?" Scott screamed, and then thumped his hand down hard on the dashboard.
The driver in the car beside him quickly put on their indicator and switched lanes.
Scott saw a sign for the zoo up ahead.

Jean finally came to and found herself resting outside the mansion doors. She pushed her hands against the grass and gently lifted herself from the floor. Her hands instantly flew to her temples as pain shot through her head.
"Argh…How'd I get here?" She scanned her own memories for an answer.
Kim Possible Movie with…Scott.
Leaves lots of leaves…right um running through the trees.
Taryn.
And some man grabbing me from behind.
She quickly jumped to her feet just in case the man was still there.
"Hello? Anyone there?" She hugged her shoulders as a slight breeze drifted past.
"Hello?" She heard the mansion door behind her slide open. She darted her head around and let out the breath she was holding.
"Oh thank god Scott," She ran into him and hugged him close.
"I'm so confused," She looked up at him, he had a confused grin of his own on his face.
He pushed her away gently.
"Um who are you? Not that I don't like being hugged by a gorgeous woman with your sense of taste but really, how did you get in here?"
She took a step backwards,
"Scott?"
"Yep that's me, but I don't think you've told me your name." He smirked and folded his arms across his chest.
"Don't you remember me Scott? It's me, Jean." She pleaded with her eyes.
Recognition crossed his features.
"Jean, Jean Grey?"
She smiled,
"I knew you'd remember me!" She flew again to his side and hugged him close.
"Of course I'd remember you…" He smiled,
"You BITCH!" His hand rose to his visor.
"Scott?" Jean took four steps backwards.
"You're scaring me, what are you doing?" She formed a telekinetic shield across her body.
"What I should have done a long time ago, before you ruined my relationship with Taryn!" He was nearly shouting now, his hands out before him, ready to strangle the woman he supposedly loved.
"With Taryn?" Jean screamed.
"What, you thought I wanted to be with you?" He laughed and flew his hand back to his visor.
"Never." His hand turned the switch and a flash of red erupted from his eyes, hitting Jean full on, her telekinetic shield diminishing before him.

Jean awoke yet again, but this time her arms and legs were strapped tight to a hard surface beneath her and a trail of tears had made it's way down her cheek. Her head still hurt but now the pain had friends, the buckles across her chest and around her hands and feet were not exactly comfortable.
"It seems you're awake." A voice sounded from above her.
Jean squirmed.
I've heard that voice before…
"Indeed you have, Jean."
Her mouth opened wide.
You're that man from…from when I had a run-in with Taryn, in the trees across from the mansion.
Jean's eyebrows slowly formed an arc above her eyelids.
"But where am I? And…who are you? And…WHAT DID YOU DO TO SCOTT?" Her words stumbled out of her mouth in a massive heap as more tears fell from her silent eyes.
"Not that this is Who Wants to be a Millionaire or anything but I suppose I may answer those simple questions."
He slowly began circling the bench she lay upon.
Her eyes opened wide at his pale features, his eyes nearly as black as hell itself.
"You are inside my…would you call it lair? Hmmm…Now Scott on the other hand is on his way to meet Taryn and soon after will be joining you here for a little…extra credit." He smirked and swirled a lock of Jean's hair around his finger. He pulled it tight.
Jean gasped and pulled at the straps holding her tightly to the bench.
"You, I believe, have been captured by none other than the great Sinister…" He laughed.
