Untapped Power

Chapter 5

At the Watch Tower

Sydney decided that she need Scoot, Rouge, Kurt, Kitty, Logan, Storm and, Jean. She hoped that they would be enough to help save her mother. Syd did leave out the information of Wonder Woman being her mother. Xavier stayed behind trying to figure out who the rebel leaders on earth are.

"Wow this place is amazing" Kurt said and then disappeared to explore.

"How did you come across this place?" Jean asked with a hidden meaning behind it trying to find out what everyone was hiding.

Dick answered "It's the Justice League Watch Tower very hush, hush but I do work for Batman so I know all about this place."

"That is like so amazing that you are Robin, a real life superhero not to mention really cute." Kitty said.

"It's really no big deal Kitty we're superheroes to not to mention that we have powers not some stupid little toys." Scoot said shooting daggers at Dick.

Before Dick could say or do anything Sydney returned from showing Logan and Storm around. "What are ya boys doin?" She asked trying to lighten the very heavy mood.

"Just guy talk nothing to important" Scoot said to the Sydney as she approached leaving the two adults to do there own thing.

"If its guy talk way are Rouge and Kitty still with you? That would defeat the whole purpose of 'guy talk'." She said with air quotes making everyone laugh and Scoot turn red.

"Every nice Syd every nice. We still have no idea what we are doing here or what any of this has to do with us." Scoot said finding somewhere to get comfortable waiting for an explanation.

"I explained all of this already we need to save the Justice League. Ever hear of them good doers saved the world tons of times, do you need anymore information Scoot?" She asked getting a little annoyed at the situation and wishing she hadn't involved them at all.

"Actually there is a lot more that I need to know. So many things just don't add up." Scoot said trying to figure things out.

"Scoot they are just like us different and they use there powers to help people so when they need help we will help them." Storm said.

Sydney had never really noticed how close her father and Storm had gotten over the past few months. It was somewhat sweet to see them in love but the fact that they wouldn't admit it was nerve racking.

"That and if you have so many doubts you could have said 'no I don't want to do it' but you didn't so shove it or leave its up to you." Dick said getting feed up with someone disrespecting his family in what was basically their home.

"Hey you two need to stop this I don't have time to deal with all for your crap right now my mind cant deal with it all right know. So yes there is a lot of things that I haven't told you and that is because you don't need to know." She told the group they had been through a lot together but she wouldn't have them fighting each other.

"Fine you are in charge here right what you say goes." Scott said walking away; he knew that Sydney would fallow him. "I just hope you know what you are doing Syd you asked for a lot when you asked us to come with you but you haven't given us anything in return."

"Scott weather I want to tell you are not the chances of you finding out are very high as long as we get the league out of there." She paused hoping what she was saying would sink in.

"OK I told you I would help you and I will." Syd was about to leave Scott. "By the way what is the deal with you and Dick?"

"You have this thing for wanting to know long stories don't you. Bruce took him in after his family was murdered. My mom and Bruce used to date and I stayed with them for a long time well before I moved in with Professor X when I was seven. Dick is my best friend and I will always love him. He can always tell what my moods are. I have a connection with him that I don't have with any one else."

"It must be nice to have that type of relationship with someone. But can I ask you one more question?"

"As long as it has nothing to do with the Justice League sure." Syd told Scott.

"How did you get Logan to go along with this he never listens to anything that anyone says?" Scott asked.

"Well you said that, that was your last question so I don't want to hear another one and you can't tell the others." She paused to figure out how to put her words. "Logan is my father." As soon as she said it, she left a speechless Scott.

"We need to figure out a way to get inside the base where they are holding the League then we should have enough power to defeat the rebels then go back down to Earth to get the two leaders that are down there unless Charles found out who they are and got rid of them." Dick said to Logan they needed a plan but he didn't know anything about the area.

"Sounds good but do we know where the base is that they are being held at?" Storm asked when she walked over to the two men.

"No not really." Logan admitted.

"The Justice League wouldn't just walk blindly into a strange planet would they?" Rouge asked no one even realized that she was there.

"No why?" Dick said and by this time, Sydney was standing with them listening to everything that was being said amongst the group.

"Than cant we use the info that they use when they went sure it would be outdated but at lest it is something to work with." Rouge said hating the feeling if every bodies eyes being on her.

Dick looked down at Syd and smiled. "Do you think that you can put the files up baby?"

"Well I could try. You guys keep strategizing and figure out a way to use all of the power that we have one this ship. Rouge want to help me find the information that we need." Rouge nodded and the two disappeared into the computer chamber.
