Hi I'm back. Sorry about the super long wait. I promise I didn't forget about the story. On Tuesday I hurt my Knee and was brought to the hospital. When I left I was informed I was not allowed to move or get up, unless I had to go to the bathroom. I'm now all clear on getting up and walking around (on crutches) so I will be posting again, Yay! Now, chapter 8 of making friends.

"Pietro-speaking-super-quick"
'Thoughts'
~Chapter 7; Mind Games~
~Recap~
"Blackmail or mind control?" Rogue asked. "Most of the people I've met prefer mind control." Rogue said.
"Neither Rogue, you see you both will work for me willingly." Magneto said confidently.
"I'm glad you like it, now I suggest you get some sleep. We have a very important day tomorrow." Xavier said. "Girls if you would follow Jean, she will show you to a guest room and Boys if you would follow Scott."
~Chapter 7; about 7:00 A.M. ~
"Everyone Ready?" Scott or Cyclops, since he was in his uniform, asked the group in front of him.
"Sir, yes, sir!' Kurt shouted with a small salute. Pietro, Kitty, and Evan laughed lightly and covered it with a cough.
"Good now," Scott said ignoring Kurt's humor. "Let's go and get Wanda and Rogue back." Scott turned and walked into the blackbird. Everyone looked at the blackbird impressed (sans Jean, and the Adults) and followed Scott in.
"You can, totally, fly this thing, right?" Kitty asked a tad bit nervous.
Jean gave a warm smile filled with humor. "Of course he can fly it." She said. It was then that Jean noticed Kitty's outfit had been different than the one they had given her. (Okay the uniform they gave Kitty and Evan was the basic newbie one and now she's wearing her one from Evolution) "Kitty, what happened to your uniform?"
"Oh, you like it? I did it myself. My mom taught me everything about sewing and, no offence, but the uniform you gave me was kinda bland. Especially compared to yours." Kitty said and spun around showing her the rest of the uniform. (Everyone has their uniform from Evolution now. Well except Rogue, hers looks just like Evolution style without the X's on the arms.)
"Actually, yeah." Jean said taking a seat and Kitty sat next to her. Soon the Blackbird was in the air and heading straight for Magneto's base.
~Magneto's Base; holding cells~
Wanda and Rogue were awoken when the bright florescent lights switched on. Both girls sat up rubbing their eyes. "Geez, rude wake up call." Wanda muttered.
*Click*
"Good morning girls," Magneto said with a smile. The smile would have been warm and welcoming if not for his eyes. They held an expression of evil and power.
"Go away, bucket head." Wanda said. (He's now wearing his uniform) Rogue gave her an odd look.
'Bucket head?' She mouthed and Wanda shrugged. Both girls turned their attention back to Magneto, who was yet again accompanied by Sabertooth.
"What do ya want, Magneto?" Rogue asked glaring at Sabertooth.
"Currently, you Miss. Rogue." Magneto said causing Rogue to stop glaring at Sabertooth and glare at him. With a flick of his wrist two metal chains slithered their way through the bars. One chain wrapped its self tightly around Rogue's arms, pinning them to her side.
"Hey, LET HER GO!" Wanda shouted. The other chain wrapped themselves around Wanda's hands, immobilizing them. Rogue's body was then lifted into the air and brought over to the cell door, which then opened. Magneto laid Rogue's body into Sabertooth's arms.
"Put meh down, ya over grown pussycat!" Rogue shouted as Sabertooth carried her out. He carried her into a room with a tall semi-dome ceiling. Magneto pointed a finger at a metal chairs and flicked it to the center of the room. Sabertooth sat Rogue down in the chair and two metal straps wrapped themselves around her ankles. The chains undid themselves and two metal straps forced her wrists to the armrests.
"Mastermind." Magneto said addressing the monkey-like man. Mastermind came up to Rogue and placed his hands so they were hovering over her temples.
"Get away from meh!" Rogue shouted twisting in the metal chair. Mastermind ignored the girl and closed his eyes and began working on breaking her shields. Rogue gasped as she felt him enter her mind. Mastermind's eyebrows scrunched together as he concentrated harder.
"Mastermind, is there a problem?" Magneto asked. "What's going on?"
"Her mental shields are strong, Magneto." He said.
"Can you break them?" Magneto asked. "Or do I need to get someone more capable?"
"No, I can break them." Master mind assured him. Every Acolyte knew what happens when you need a replacement, and it's not pretty. Mastermind sent another mental blast cracking her mental shield.
"St-stop i-i-it." Rogue stuttered. With one last metal blast her metal shield broke. Rogue screamed in agony as she felt the shield break.
~Outside Magneto's base; after Rogue was taken before her shields were broke~
The blackbird landed not far away from the base. Everyone left the jet prepared to save their friends. Remy quickly led them to the prisoner entrance. "Dis way and keep quite." Remy said. Once at the door Remy turned to Kitty. "Shadowcat, if ya please." Remy said holding out his hand.
"Like hold on, Gambit." Kitty said taking his hand. She pulled him through the door. Only seconds later the door swung open and Remy led them in. He quietly led them down the rows of prisoners.
"If that's you Magneto, go away." Wanda grumbled from further down the hall.
"WANDA!" Pietro shouted quietly. (Is that possible?) "Are-you-okay?" Pietro asked in a whisper.
"Pietro? How'd you get here?" Wanda asked standing up.
"Like with help." Kitty said with a smile. She phased her hand through the bars and pulled Wanda out. "You okay?" Wanda nodded.
"Vwhere iz Rogue?" Kurt asked. He had ported in to the cell to bring Rogue out, but she wasn't in there.
"Magneto toke her, I don't'-" A scream cut off what Wanda was about to say. Everyone turned towards the door that the scream came from.
"X-MEN GO!" Scott shouted and blasted the door down. Everyone ran into the room and toke in the scene before them. Jean quickly lifted Mastermind and threw him into the wall, breaking his concentration. Logan and Laura teamed up and attacked Sabertooth. Pyro shot flames at the rest of the X-men, but Jean shielded them.
"Eh Nightcrawler, get Gambit over dere." Remy said pointing behind Pyro. Kurt nodded and teleported them behind Pyro and Remy threw charged cards at him, making him fall.
"Oy, not cool mate!" He shouted. Soon Remy and Pyro were locked in battle. Colossus was currently attacking Evan who was being helped by Pietro. (The irony does not escape me.) Wanda was currently fighting alongside Ororo against Magneto. Jean was engaged in a metal battle against Mastermind. Soon Scott had begun to help Remy, while Lance helped Evan and Pietro.
"Shadowcat!" Kurt called and teleported next to her. Kitty grabbed Kurt and phased both of them through debris from Wanda's and Ororo's battle with Magneto."Come and help me." Kitty held out her hand and Kurt teleported them over to the unconscious Rouge. Kitty grabbed Rogue and phased her out of the binds. Rogue's body slumped forward and Kitty eased her onto the floor.
"Rogue? Rogue, wake up." Kitty said gently shaking her arm.
"Mah head, what happened?" Rogue asked confused. She sat up and frowned. "How'd Ah get here? And where is here?" She asked.
"You vwere kidnapped by Magneto. Do you know us?" Kurt asked scared the answer would be no.
"Uh yeah, why wouldn't Ah? We met yesterday afternoon." Rogue said and then clutched her head.
"Let's get you out of here." Kitty said, not telling Rogue that, that was four days ago. Kitty helped her up and before Kurt could teleport them Magneto sent a metal bar at them. Rogue pushed Kitty out of the way and the pole smacked Rogue sending her flying into a wall.
"NO! ROGUE!" Kurt shouted. Kurt teleported to Rogue's side and kneeled down next to her. Wanda's hand glowed a dark blue and Wanda hexed Magneto. Once she was sure he was down she ran to her friend's side. With the distraction Magneto lifted his men, using metal plates, and left. Logan and Laura ran over to Rogue's side and Logan knelt down. He checked her pulse and then lifted her up bridal style.
"She's going to be okay, right?" Wanda asked. Everyone had gathered around and were anxiously awaiting the answer.
'Hopefully' Logan thought.
Me: Oh, drama! Tell me, should she be okay? Sadly the story is coming to a close. I'm pretty sure there are gonna be two or three more chapters left in the story. I wanted to thank everyone who reviewed and now a word from my muse.

I wanted to apologize for Remy's behavior and his even more inflated ego. He hacked into my computer and found the Reviews… Anyway, hope you enjoyed this installment of Making Friends. Please review.
