"We will be Professor, we'll bring them back in no time." Scott states smiling.
"We be tres bien Profess'r don go frettin' o'er us." Kraia states. As Xaiver nods the team starts to get on the Black Bird.
"Be safe guys, we'll be waiting for you to return." Bobby sighs.
"Yea come back soon ma friends." Rouge whispers as the jet roars to life and lifts off. Turning to the girls Bobby nods as they walk away.
In the Black Bird Scott and Storm sit at the helm as Jean and Hank sit behind them. Behind Jean sits Logan, looking down at his hands he rolls the deactivated com link in his hands. While in the back at the lockers Kraia sits with her legs folded in her lap her gold on red eyes shut in concentration.
"Rems where are ya mi amour? Remy Etienne LeBeau! It be me mi amour ya Golden Femme Fatal where ya be?" Kraia's thoughts call out.
"Chere? Remy can barely petit." Remy's thoughts answer weakly.
"Jus' keep talkin' ta Kraia bebe. Je t`aime mi amour, je t`aime ma Ragin' Cajun." her thoughts coo. As Logan looks back at er he sees a smile so big that it threatens to split her face in half.
"She's talking to Gumbo now...if they can keep the link up then we'll be able to find them a lot easier." Logan whispers.
"That's good it should make this a hell of a lot easier on us too. If Remy tells her what he knows of the area we'll be able to get a good feel of the area." Kitty replies over the com.
"I'm..." Scott stops.
"Logan does Raia have her com link?" Jean asks as she turns around to face him.
"No she doesn't...I do. She wanted to search for the Cajun and the coms throw back a lot of static and trust that gets annoying." Logan replies.
"Je t`aime mi amour, je t`aime ma Golden Femme Fatal. MON DIEU! Remy miss ya chere!" Remy's thoughts sigh happily.
"MON DIEU! Kraia 'ave missed ya too ma sexy King o' 'Earts." Kraia's thoughtscoo love and devotion lacing her thoughts.
"Day 'ave us in da basement Sub-level Six cells 'ightteen und nineteen chere...." Remy states as his thoughts fade.
"SUB-LEVEL SIX CELLS 'IGHTTEEN UND NINETEEN!" Kraia yells as she jumps up and rushes to the front of the jet.
"You sure Raia?" Jean asks as her, Hank and Logan turn to face the golden Cajun.
"Oui Red! Remy know where day be keppin' 'im at in dare." Kraia replies looking at her friends.
"Alright....Professor?" Storm asks activating her com link.
"Yes Storm?" Xaiver replies over the com.
"You have a fix on the location yet?" Jean asks as Kraia and Logan move to the back of the jet back where Kraia sat earlier. In Logan's seat lay both his and hers com links.
"You alright 'Phire?" Logan whispers as he steps in closer to her.
"Non mon am, de Fur Ball und Remy be weak....very weak. Day be doin' someting ta dem. It worry me Wolvie fa Remy ta just fade from da link it be bad." Kraia whispers wrapping her arms around his waist as tears start to fall from her gold on red eyes.
"It's going to be alright Sapphire I promise. We'll get there in time and get Gumbo and Fur Ball out safely." Logan states as he pulls her tight against him.
"Merci mon ami Kraia needed dat." she smiles pulling back slightly when suddenly her eyes go blank. Shaking her head she blushes as she looks up into Logan's eyes. With a small laugh she leans up and gently kisses him. With a happy sigh Logan wraps his arms around her and kisses he back with ardor. Suddenly the jet starts to shake violently pulling the two apart.
"FUCK WE'VE BEEN HIT! THEY MUST'VE SAW US!" Scott yells as the shaking of the plane tosses Logan and Kraia on the floor beside me.
"EVERYONE BUCKLE UP!" Jean yells as she tries to hide the smile that threatens to split her face in half.
"Wipe dat smirk off ya face Red." Kraia's thoughts snap upset that the kiss was ended so soon.
"YOU TWO JUST KISSED KRAIA! It's just that I...I can't believe it Raia." Jean's thoughts reply shock oozing off her.
"Oui empath 'ere 'member? It was like Remy's, Logan's and my emotions just 'ook control o' me. It be like day took control of ma body. MON DIEU DERE ARDOR BE STRONG RED! Dis cajun fille ne'er knew mon ami." Kraia's thoughts whisper.
"Scott we have to land now if we want to have any chance on making the return trip home!" Hank growls.
"Right Storm Jean Kraia!" Scott yells as Storm's chocolate brown eyes turn snow white. Standing up Jean tries to steady the jet while Kraia focuses on pillowing the air around the jet so the landing is softer. As they get closer to the ground Scott switches the jet to stealth mode.
"Damn it! Hank and Jean stay behind and see what you can do to fix the Black Bird. The rest of us will go on ahead." Scott states shaking his head.
"Remy ya dere mi amour?" Kraia asks searching for Remy.
"CHERE! 'URRY!" Remy calls out his thoughts laced with pain. Stopping just outside the jet Kraia falls to her knees gasping for air.
"Raia!" Jean and Storm yell as they both rush to their friend's side, worry capturing their beautiful features.
"Remy...MON DIEU!" Kraia cries out clutching her sides as tears start falling from her gold on red eyes. Kneeling by her side Logan pulls her to his chest.
"What's going on? SAPPHIRE!" Logan growls worry thick in his voice.
"Dat bastard be 'urting 'im! He forcing Remy ta keep da link tween us open ta 'urt me too. MON DIEU!" Kraia sobs clutching to Logan like a life line. Placing her hands on her friend's head Jean focuses on breaking the link between Kraia and Remy.
"Kraia hold on tell that hard headed Cajun of yours to hold on too." Jean and Scott whisper.
"Remy! Je t aime ma Ragin' Cajun. 'Old on mi amour 'old on!" Kraia's thoughts whisper.
"Kraia! Once dis be over chere Remy be doing tings proper und askin' ya und de Wolverine ta marry dis Cajun. Je t aime Remy's Golden Femme Fatal." Remy states as his thoughts fade from Kraia's mind.
"I"m gonna 'urt dat man!" Kraia screams.
"What happened? What's wrong now Raia?" Jean asks worried.
"'E just 'aid dat once dis be o'er dat he be doing tings proper and gonna ask Logan und me ta marry 'im!" Kraia yells as she stands up and leans on Logan.
"Allons! Let get in dere und get dem out o' dere!" she states as she takes off running toward the compound.
"Changes of plans Cyclops!" Hank growls.
"FUCK! Jackel's out!" Logan growls as he slides his com over his ear. Nodding Hank does the same thing as they both take off running leaving Jean, Scott, and Storm at the jet.
"Who or what is Jackel?" Beast asks.
"Think of Jackel as Kraia's Wolverine. Remember when I said that Kraia can be reckless and flies off the handle out the slightest hint of trouble? Well that's Jackel she has an intense urge to protect her loved ones." Logan pauses sniffing the air.
