Hey, hey, hey! I'm back...for a while. I still have to write and update in a weird way, but I don't know when that will be. I'm only planning for two or three more chapters after this chapter. Then I may do a sequel to this to complete the story. I'm going to set up a poll, so vote. Geronimo!

Headed Back
I woke up a while later and found a brown, leather jacket under my head with a black trench coat over me. I sat up and groggily rubbed my eyes before looking to the only other person in the car, "Jasper? Where is everyone?" He smiled at me from the driver seat and nodded towards a building in front of us, "Your brothers are using the truck showers and my brothers are getting you three food. Do you want to go take a shower?" I nodded and climbed out of the car before grabbing a bag of clothes for me and heading inside. I managed to get the last shower and I wasted no time in hurrying back to it.
I was under the flow of water long enough to make sure I wouldn't smell bad and then I hopped out and got dressed. I ran into Logan on my way back to the main area of the gas station and he wrapped an arm around my shoulders, "Hey, pup. How you feeling?" I shrugged and wrapped an arm around his waist as I replied, "Better now that I know you're not dead or being tortured anymore." His arm tightened around me before we released each other and climbed into the car. I was sharing the back row with Edward, so that Logan and Victor could have their own space in the middle to spread out.
My back was against the side of the car as I sat sideways and rested my feet on Edward's lap, who just chuckled quietly at me. I ate the greasy cheeseburger and the salty fries before sipping on the Mountain Dew as I watched scenery out the window. Logan and Victor both fell asleep after they ate and I carefully covered them with their jackets. Edward pulled out his phone and we spent a couple hours watching random videos on Youtube until I fell asleep with his lap as my pillow. I woke up as the car came to a stop and jumped in surprise as I recognized the driveway to the Cullen house, "How...what?" The vampires chuckled and Jasper answered, "We don't need sleep, so we drove for hours until we reached here. It's been a four day drive into two days." I rolled my eyes and climbed out of the car before all six of us ran to where the ship was at. I saw my boyfriend talking to Erik and the professor and I called out, "Peter!"
He whirled around and stumbled back a step when I threw myself at him and he picked me up in the air to make it easier for us to kiss while the three Cullen boys created their wives the same way. Peter and I separated for air and stared at each other for a minute like there was nobody else around. We finally broke apart, but we maintained a grip on our hands as everyone greeted each other. Carlisle did a quick examination of my brothers and I to make sure we were okay and then we held a meeting with all the older mutants and the Cullens while Renesme went to play with the twins, Julie, and Thomas. Victor, Edward, Jasper, Emmett, and I told about what we found and discovered during the rescue, but I had to smile a bit when I said, "I read as many documents as I could, Professor, so you can go through them in my memories."
He smiled warmly, "That's brilliant thinking, my dear." I nodded while internally disagreeing about it being brilliant and I shot Edward a glare when he nudged me from his place on the other side of Bella, who was on my left. We stared each other down for a minute before I looked away and tuned into Logan's story, "After they got Storm, I had Hank get her away. I got shot with about two-hundred tranquilizers and then got jumped. I don't remember much of the trip, except for leaving a trail because I knew an annoying little pest of a sister would follow me, even if I could somehow tell her not to," I blushed a bit at his words and felt hurt at his comment, "Stryker was determined to try and drain the adamantium out of me, but nothing was working. He was close to finding a way though, so it's good that you guys got me out when ya did. All I could gather from him is that they have specialized robots that can track mutants through the genes. The robots can somehow adapt to each mutant power and it's gonna be hard to fight them."
Storm spoke up, "Julie told us. She told us that we're all going to die." Logan's eyes darkened and I could practically feel his worry about the fight and the thought of me dying. I knew he would do everything in his power to make sure I would survive. He didn't want anymore family to die, especially not his younger sister. I sound so arrogant saying these things, but they are facts. If it was up to me, I would die to save everyone from dying.
Edward smacked the back of my head as I thought about giving myself to Stryker to save everyone and the bronze-haired man hissed to just the vampires, my brothers, and I, "Don't you dare, Lexine. Don't even think about it." I mentally flipped him off as Beast spoke, "Lexine was right about the twins. They overheard us and they're going to fight, whether we let them or not. Dr. Cullen, is there anyone we could hide Julie and Thomas with?" The doctor nodded as his arm tightened around his wife, "We can hide them in La Push with the shapeshifters. Most of them will fight with us, but they won't allow the younger members to fight."
My head snapped up and my eyes lit up as I jumped to my feet, "That's it!" They all looked at me like I had grown a second head, except for Professor X and Edward because they saw where my thoughts were going. Victor commented, "Spill, punk." I rolled my eyes at his impatient attitude as I started pacing, "Julie can only see visions of those that she knows, but she doesn't know the wolf packs, right," the adults nodded, "See?! That's our hidden weapon. She can't see them because she doesn't know them, so she can only see visions of what is going to happen without the wolves help! And, Alice, you haven't been able to see what is going to happen because the wolves are your blind spot as well! Don't you guys get it? There's a chance we could all survive this!"
