At the mansion.

A young girl in a bright yellow coat answers the phone.
"Hello?"
"Jubes its Rogue. I don't have time to talk just please get Storm on the phone."
Storm at that moment walked down the stairs to the phone and Jubilee handed the phone to her mouthing 'Rogue.'
"Rogue? What's going on?"
"I just got a call from Logan and I let the word son slip out of my mouth. He is headed to the mansion as we speak. Don't let him even see Laughlin before I get there."
"No problem he and the other teenagers went on a field trip to Niagara Falls they won't be back for two days."
Storm could hear Rogue sigh on the other line.
"Good. Remy and I are about to board the plane back we will be home in a few hours."
A male voice was heard in the background.
"Remy wants to talk to you."
"Stormy?"
"Yes Remy?"
"When he smells Laughlin's scent he will know that he is his son. But he might try to leave once he realizes that he isn't there. Do me a favor?"
"Of course."
"Don't let M'seur Claws leave. Rogue and Laughlin deserve answers and frankly I have a few questions for the homme myself."
"No problem. Oh and by the way Remy?"
"Oui, Stormy?"
"Don't call me Stormy."
Despite the tense situation both managed to laugh as they hung up.
Jubilee looked at Storm and said, "So what are we doing?"
"Nothing, it wouldn't surprise me if Logan showed up within the hour. And as for keeping him here, which I know you overheard, I'll just tell him what happened when he left. He will be too busy listening to try and leave. And if he isn't," Storms eyes turned white and the air caused her hair to whip around her face. "Then I wonder how lightning and adamantium will react to each other."
A look of pure shock crossed Jubilees face.
"You would seriously hurt him? I thought you were friends?"
"We are. But he had no right to do what he did. If he had even checked in once he would have known he had a son and Rogue may have been able to keep control of her powers. Now she is having to gain control all over again."
"Have there been any breakthroughs?"
"Yes, she can touch Laughlin and on occasion Remy. But that is it."
"It's awful."
"I know."
