Chapter 3: Scott's journey

The ride back to the mansion wasn't easy, seeing as how two grown men were on a motorcycle, but they made it anyways. Logan made sure everyone was in bed, before helping Scott up to his room. When Scott was in bed, Logan headed to Storm's room.

"Storm?" Logan said, knocking on the door. He heard movement behind the door.

A few seconds later the door flew open revealing a very tired and angry Storm. "Logan this better be good or I swear to God I'll-"

"I found Scott." he replied cutting her off.

She looked at him, eyes wide with shock. "What? Where is he? Is he ok?" she asked

"He's fine and he's in bed right now. I found him up at Alkali Lake." Logan told her how he found him.

"We have to go see the Professor."

"No, let's let them sleep. This can wait till morning." And with that he walked away.

THE NEXT MORNING

At 9:00 exactly, Storm went to Logan's room and told him they should see the Professor. He agreed and she set off to Scott's room to wake him up. They got to Xavier's office and Storm led them in.

"Good Morning, Ororo and Logan, to what do I owe this pleasure?" He stopped as he saw Scott.

"Scott?"

"Hello, Xavier."

"I found him up at Alkali Lake, Professor." Logan said, and in doing so he launched into a retelling of what happened the day before.

When he was through, Xavier turned to Scott. "Scott, do you remember what happened?"

"Well, Professor, I went to Alkali Lake to, well, grieve Jean's death. I heard her calling my name and all these images of her went through my head and I kind of lost it. I ripped my glasses off and the beams from my eyes shot through the water. Then the water swelled up, and Jean appeared, but she was different. She had longer hair, and she just, seemed different.. She told me to take my glasses off, but I didn't want to hurt her. She told me to trust her. I took them off and the lasers were gone. I was, well, normal."

Scott took a drink of water from a cup sitting on the desk before continuing.

"We kissed, and, it felt like I was dying. Like she took my power. I didn't understand what was happening and the next thing I knew, I woke up in the woods. I saw Logan, and, well, you know the rest," he finished.

Xavier nodded and said "Well, you look like you need some rest. I'll talk to you when you feel up to it, but for now eat some food, and get to bed."

Scott nodded and headed towards the kitchen. Ororo looked at Xavier.

"So. What are you going to do about his powers?"

"I'll let you know in a little while. But for now, I have more important matters to tend to."

"Such as?" Wolverine pressed.

"Such as the return of John Allerdyce."
