I hope you enjoy this chapter. I've taken a couple of things from Wolverine and the X-men this time around, as well as X-men evolution. I've been watching Wolverine and the X-men and got a few ideas from it.
Disclaimer: I do not own anything from X-men Evolution, X-men, or Wolverine and the X-men. They only thing I do own are my own characters and the story. The story is getting a little darker starting from this chapter on. Just a little warning for you all.
Chapter 8:
Xavier sat by Cerebro, concentrating hard on locating either Remy or Lilly, or both. It felt like something was blocking his telepathy, but he couldn't quite figure out what. Every time he got close to either of them, he was pushed away. He was so focused on what he was doing that he didn't notice when someone ran into the room until he felt a very small hand on his. He looked down to see a frightened Ophelia looking up at him, tears in her eyes.
"What's wrong Ophelia?" Xavier questioned the young child.
"There are scary men with guns coming. They hurt the others!"
Xavier quickly put his headpiece down and went to go to the hall, with Ophelia close behind him. Before they got to the door, two men with guns busted through. Xavier got into their minds telepathically and was able to convince them that Ophelia was not in the room before he was knocked unconcious.
Remy wakes up, feeling worn out and very weak. His mind is groggy and he tries to figure out where he was and how he got there. He can tell he is lying on something very firm, almost like a wooden board, but when he looks down, he sees that it is a bed. Remy can tell that he is in some sort of room that's a strange greenish-blue color, similar to the scrubs you would see a surgeon in a hospital wearing. He sat up and saw a see-through door charged with electricity, humming quietly.
Through his door, he saw another room. In that room, he saw an unconcious Lilly dressed in very little. There were white medical bandages covering her most private parts, her forehead, ankles and wrists, but that was it.
Remy's body was stiff, but he found that he could move a little. He tried to stretch and that's when he discovered three things. One, he had soemthing metallic around his neck. Two, he had a piece of cotton bandaged to his arm, and when he removed it, he saw a small hole that resembled a needle hole. Three, when he tried to use his powers, he found that he could not.
Remy watched as two men in lab coats walked into Lilly's cell. They talked in whispered tones and Remy could barely make out what they were saying. What he came to understand was that they were planning on running some experiments on her. They started setting her up by placing an IV in her arm and setting up a monitor to check on all of her vitals. After they were finished, they left the room.
Remy took out a deck of cards he had hidden away and started playing solitaire, trying to come up with an escape plan. He hadn't been with the X-men for very long, but he knew they would always try their hardest to rescue their own. Still, Remy didn't like relying on others, so he ran through every scenario he could in his mind.
It was three hours before anyone came back. This time it was several armed men, and they were carrying people. Remy instantly recognized them as Professor Xavier, Logan, Rogue, and Wanda. They were each put into seperate cells. Quickly after they were put into their cells, four doctors walked into the room and visited each cell. They left with the guards, carrying four vials of blood.
Four hours later, the two doctors came back, taking all the monitors and IV away from Lilly and leaving the room of cells. Remy remains ever watchful, waiting for any opportunity to escape. The only good thing he's seen so far, is that now Logan was there. He might not like the hot-headed man, but there was no denying his skills. After awhile, the lights had shut off in the hall, but not the cells, and the electric current running through the doors was still there. Remy just assumed it was night, and that this was lights out.
