The next morning, the jet was ready again and we took off. We had to take Magneto and Mystique with us. I don't know why but I didn't ask questions. Bobby and I were staring at one of the X-Men suits. Bobby spoke up. "Why don't we get uniforms?"

"Yeah, where's ours?" Pyro spoke up. "Look at Doll over there. She has a uniform."

"They're an order. Should arrive in a few years. And the only reason why my daughter is on the team is because she's knows how to fight. She's been doing it her whole life."

He left the room and that meant Pyro, Bobby, and I were stuck in a room with Mystique and Magneto. They turn to me and say, "You may want to practice more with that force field."

My hair burst into flames as do my eyes. I start to walk over to them but Bobby held me back. He starts to whisper calming things in my ear and uses his power to reduce my flaming hair. We sit down in another room and wait until we arrive at the island.

We made it there and we were discussing the plan. We didn't know who would go and we tried to get Kurt to go in but he said he would have to see where he is going for him to teleport; otherwise he would end up in a wall. We were thinking about who could go until a voice spoke out. "I'll go! I have a hunch he'll want me alive."

I started shaking my head and Magneto disagreed. "Wolverine! Whoever goes into the dam needs to be able to operate the spillway mechanism. What do you intend to do? Scratch it with your claws?"

"I'll take my chances."

"But I won't!" I speak up. "I'm not letting you go in there alone. If you go, I go. That man is the reason why…"I trail off, unable to finish the sentence.

My dad makes his way toward me and wraps his arms around me. He knows what I was going through because he felt the same pain. Losing someone you cared for deeply. Magneto agreed with me and we all decided that Mystique would go in, disguised as my dad.

We waited for her to give the signal that she was in. Once we got it, my dad admitted, "She's good."

She soon got the spillway door opened and Storm made sure that they lost power from an 'electrical storm'. Everyone said we all had to stay in the jet, saying it was too dangerous. I tried to convince my dad to let me come but he didn't cave in. I think that was the first time he really said no to me.

Pyro was playing with the fire while I was watching what was going on with them. Bobby was sitting silently next to me. I saw that they were all in the room where Mystique was but I saw someone walking out of the room. The next moment I heard Storm in the mic. "Scout, Logan left. Can you tell us where he is?"

"Yeah, I can try." I start looking all around the small map and my eyes go wide when I realize what he's doing. "Storm, please get to him fast! He's going for Stryker!"

"Don't worry, Baby Girl. We'll get there as soon as we can."

The whole time I kept my eye on my dad but someone's voice got my attention. "Scout! I found Scott! He's being forced to attack us. He doesn't know what he's doing!"

My eyes widen when I realize Scott can be in major trouble. I didn't know what to do. I wanted to go after him but it felt like I had to go with my dad. I just sunk down in my seat and tried to control my breathing. The boys were trying to comfort me but I ignored them and held on tightly to the dog tags I never gave back.

I saw something break on the spillway. It looked like one of the pipes and I knew it would end up flooding the place. I knew I couldn't warn my dad but I still had to warn the others. "Guys, get outta there! The whole place is going to flood!"

"Got it! We still have to get the kids out! We'll be right out when we do!" Storm's reply came.

"I'm sorry! That was my fault. Scott didn't know what he was doing and I had to do something!" Jean voice came out.

"Scott! Jean is he ok?"

"I'll let you talk to him." I heard some shuffling on the other end and I heard the voice I haven't heard in days. "Angel? Is that you?"

"Yea, it's me. How you doing?"

"I'm fine. Just had a little trouble. What about you? Are you ok?"

"…I've been better."

"Angel. What happened?"

"Listen I'll tell you later, just focus on getting back to the jet before it all floods."

We stayed silent for a moment until Pyro got up and grabbed his jacket. He opened the door and started to walk out. "That's it. I'm sick of this kid's table shit, I'm going in there."

"Pyro, they told us to stay in here! It's too dangerous."

He quickly turns to me. "The hell's the matter with you? I can't remember a time when the great Wolverine's daughter backed out of something. The real Scout would jump right in and do anything to save her dad. Where's that girl? Huh? Where's that girl, Doll?"

I put my head down, not saying anything. He just scoffs and shakes his head. "Well, I guess that answers that now, doesn't it?" With that he walked out.

We watch him as he walks away from us. I hold back the tears, knowing that I just lost one of my best friends. What he said really hit me and I turned around to face the controls of the jet. I went toward the front of the jet and started setting everything up.

Before anything else could happen, something was in my head. In all our heads. We couldn't think, all we could do was yell out from the pain. Bobby and I dropped to the floor, clutching each other's hands. He held mine tightly, letting me know he was right there with me as we cried out.

It stopped as soon as it had started. We were both breathing heavy and before I could move, Bobby pulled me in a hug. "Are you alright, Kitten?"

"Yeah. You?"

"Yeah."

We were both shaking when we pulled away. I started to start up the engine ad put on the seat belt. "Scout, what are you doing?"

"We'll die if we stay here! So will the others! We can at least try!"

I got the jet off the ground and I had Bobby be the spotter while I was trying to control it. After a minute I heard him yell, "There! I see them!"

"Bobby, help! I can't control it!"

He jumped over to my side and we tried to lower it in front of everybody. Instead we crashed a good 50 yards away from them. I couldn't help but let out a scream and my body was shaking. Bobby turned to me and kissed me on the cheek. "You did good. That was pretty brave."

I turned to him and saw he had the cute smile he gave me when we first met. I smiled back but only a small bit. I opened the door and ran down the ramp. The first person I ran to was Scott. I jumped in his arms and he hugged me tightly. "Thank god you're ok. What the hell were you thinking, huh, Angel? You could've killed yourself!"

"We all would be dead if I didn't do anything!" Before I let him say anything else, I ran up the hill where my dad was.

He was looking off in the distance, to his side. I saw him start to walk away when he saw me. He paused and let me catch up to him. He didn't let me do anything; all he had me do was follow him. I didn't know where we were going but as we were walking, I gave him back his dog tags.

When we get to the spot where he wanted to be, I saw Stryker tied up in chains against a walls. "Who has the answers Wolverine? Those people? That creature you call a daughter? Huh?"

My dad grabbed his dog tags and threw them on the ground at Stryker's feet. He put his arm around my shoulder and pulled me close to him. "I'll take my chances with my little girl."

He turns me around and we walk away, back to the jet. We ran up the ramp, to see everyone seated, ready for takeoff. He let me go and jerked his head towards Bobby's direction. I nod my head at him and sit next to my boyfriend. "Are you alright?"

I look at him and give him a real smile. "I am now."

Everyone was trying to get the jet started back up but it wouldn't work. Bobby couldn't help but ask them, "Has anyone seen John?"

"Pyro? Where is he?" My dad looked at Jean for an answer but all she gave us was, "He's with Magneto."

I saw Jean stand up and get this look in her eye. She looked back at Scott and made her way to the door. I stood up and ran towards her. I hugged her, knowing what she was going to do. We might not have been close but we were still part of the same family. She hugged me back and whispered, "You need to stay strong. Take care of your dad. He's going to need you. So is Scott, Bobby, and everyone. Never lose hope." And with that, she walked out.

Soon everyone realized what was happening and tried to stop her. She wouldn't let anyone outside to get her and she was controlling the jet. She lifted it up and soon, she let the water take her. Scott started to cry, nobody saying anything. My dad kept repeating that she was gone with tears in his eyes. That same look he had when my mom died.

We got back to the mansion and it seemed like everything went back to normal. But it didn't. One of my best friends left us. I was quieter around people. I was myself only around four people; Bobby, Scott, Storm, and my dad. I depended more on those four people than anyone else. We lost one of our professors. Scott was a lot quieter too.
