Hello, nice to see you again. First, thanks for reading, and thank you to all who takes time to review, second, this chapter might seem rushed, but that's simply because it was a bit hard to write, sorry about that. And as a third note, the OC's name actually has a meaning, if you wanna know what the meaning is, then read the very last part of this chapter, and you'll find out :)

I don't own x - men...

One found, eight missing.

17:35pm

Listen guys, I really appreciate being carried around I do, but I don't have time for this silliness! Let me at least walk by myself!" The newly captured girl complained, as she tried to get loose by moving her hands and feet in a fast speed. She had been talking none stop ever since they found her, and the longer they walked, the more inpatient she got. She wasn't one who liked sitting still, and being carried around like some sort of dead meat wasn't making the long travel go by any faster. Speed was kinda her thing, she liked being on the run all the time, never slowing down, and even her speaking began to sound rushed.

In normal circumstances, a doctor would probably diagnose her with extreme ADHD or maybe even Hypomania, but she was way above average, all of them were. Then again, if it wasn't because of their genetic mutations, then they might as well all be in an asylum instead of a school for gifted youngsters.

"You're talking too fast again… And would you stop moving, you kinda leave burn marks on my hands you know." Kitty complained, looking displeased.

"Well sorry for bothering ya, but my feet are sleeping. Hey, here's an idea, you could let go of me, and then I could, I don't know, go by myself! I'm not gonna run away, you trapped me fair and square, and unless you forgot, I actually saved you, so why should I hurt you now?" Raegan stated. Kurt looked in the direction of Rogue, locking eyes with her, for then share a nod.

*sigh* "Okay, if it makes you shut up, I'll give you a chance, but I warn you, no tricks, or you'll regret it." Rogue said, as both Kitty and Kurt let go of her.

"Are you kidding me? You actually did give me a rope burn!" Kitty yelled up, looking at her sore hands.

"Yeah, sorry about that." The redhead apologized. Kurt was just about to loosen the rope, when she told him to stop.

"Don't bother whatever your name was, I'll just vibrate my molecules fast enough to pass through it." With that she started vibrating, and sure enough, just seconds later she stood up untied.

"But-but, why didn't you do that sooner?" Kitty asked, looking baffled.

"Because I want you to trust me. Listen, I may not be the easiest to trust, but trust me when I say, I'm not a bad guy, or girl, not anymore at least, okay I might not be a good person either, but at least I'm not planning on killing yah, so I guess I… Okay I don't know what I am okay, big deal, not important right now though. So i'm free, I'm not running away yet, and I'll just stop talking now…" She knew it was getting awkward, and that she was starting to get annoying, so she decided to shut up for now, or at least until someone decided to ask her a new question.

"What is your abilities? Besides being able to vibrate yourself through things?" Kitty asked. She didn't know exactly what the girl could do, since she never really got a good look at her.

"Well, I guess I can do a lot of things, but mostly I'm just fast, as in really, really fast, and that makes other things possible. I don't know just how much I'm able to do, besides pass through objects, run on water and run on walls. I was supposed to have other "abilities" too, but they never showed, only the speed did. You may think of me as one big mutant mess, at least I do." She then stopped herself before letting out to much information.

"What do you mean by a mutant mess?" Kitty asked curiously.

"I'm a mix of many different mutated genes, that's all you need to know. And hey, I'm happy for looking like I do, I guess it somehow makes me unique." She admitted, as she griped her hair to look at it.

"I know what you mean, being all blue and furry is pretty unusual too, but you learn to live with it. Now to a whole other question. Doesn't it make you lonely? Being out here all alone?" Kurt asked. She turned around to face him.

"Well sometimes I do feel a bit moody, but I don't really have any other place to go. I can't tell you too much, at least not yet, but I promise to answer whatever kinda questions you may have when the time comes. Until then, we'll walk, there's still a fair distance between us and the camp, is there not?"

With that they started walking again…

.

"Bobby, h-how long have we been in here?" Amara asked. She had given up trying to escape some time ago, and was now sitting on the cold ground, leaning up against an empty metal shelf. It was freezing cold inside the dark bunker, and it only got worse for every half an hour. They had managed to find Roberto's unconscious body, but they still had no idea what had happened to him. He was now lying right beside her, as she tried to share some body heat with him. Bobby and Evan was still banging on the door, desperate to get there teammates out. There didn't go long though, before Evan also succumbed to the cold, as he slowly walked away from the door to sit down beside them.

"Please Evan, don't give up yet, we have to get out." Bobby yelled, his voice filled with panic.

"I-I'm sorry, it's just so c-cold, and I… I'm tired man, I just needs t-to sit down a m-minute…" Evan then did as Amara and leaned up against the metal shelf. He suddenly felt the exhaustion take over, letting him into unconsciousness.

"Please, don't fall asleep, it's dangerous, god dammit!" Bobby yelled, as he now began to kick the door.

Bobby was iceman, he could stand the cold, he actually quite enjoyed it, but they didn't, they needed the heat of the sun. They were slowly dying, and he couldn't do anything to prevent it.

It was like being inside a very big freezer, as things turned to ice around them, and they still had no idea how that was even possible. They we getting low on oxygen too. Bobby might not mind the cold, but he still needed to breathe. He was getting tired too.

They had been in there for over two hours, even though it felt like much longer.

Amara let out a sneeze, and since Bobby didn't really need his t-shirt at the moment, he decided to take it off and give it to her instead. He slowly made his way to her, making sure he didn't walk into anything, before sitting down beside her.

"Here you go, I guess you need it more than I do." He said, as he gave it to her. He then let an arm around her, as she let her head drop on his shoulder. He could feel something wet dripping down his arm, and it didn't take him long to figure out what it was.

"Don't cry please, it'll only make you freeze that much more." He advised, only making it worse.

"D-do you think they'll f-find us?" She asked, that little bit of hope in her voice. Bobby didn't answer.

…

"We're gonna die in here, aren't we…" She asked again, that tiny spark of hope suddenly all gone.

"No, of cause we aren't gonna die princess, not like this." Bobby stated. He doubted it himself, but he couldn't bare telling her that yes, they might as well all die inside a giant freezer, never being able to see the sun ever again.

"Amara, I'll get us out of here, I promise… Amara?"

…

No answer. Amara was now out cold too, and Bobby was now the only one awake… He had to do something, and fast…

.

"Wow, this god damn cave is huge." Tabby admitted as she looked around. They were now in a new part of the cave, a dark, scary part to be exact. It was very spacious, so it didn't take long before they spread out, all trying to find an exit.

Sam was still unconscious, and Jean was still carrying him on her shoulders.

They were searching every corner for a way out, or at least something they could use as a torch, because it only seemed to get darker the longer in they came. That was then a scream appeared, followed by: I SEE DEAD PEOPLE!"

That made everyone freeze on the spot, for then running in the direction of the girly scream that only could be Tabby's. When they arrived, a horrible sight surprised them all. There lying on the ground was a dead man, a skeleton to be accurate, and beside him laid a touch, the exact touch they needed. How lucky could they be, if finding a dead person could go as lucky.

"We need that touch, Rahne get it!" Tabby yelled, pointing at it in fear that it might suddenly be alive and start attacking her if she tried to do it herself.

"No way, I aren't gonna touch that! You do it!" Rahne yelled back, as scared as Tabby.

"But you like bones don't yah?" Tabby asked, only hearing a deep growl from her.

"That is so stereotyped of you Tabby!" She yelled back.

"Girls please, none of you have to do it, I'll just levitate it over here." Jean said, and soon the torch came flying through the air, and into Rahne's hands. Then they found two small stones, and before you knew it, the torch was on fire.

"Great, so now we can actually see what we're doing, but that doesn't change the fact that we are totally lost." Tabby complained.

"No we aren't. I found a way that might lead us to the outside." Rahne stated.

"Great, then let's go." Jean ordered, feeling a mighty need to get out.

"Just one little detail. Remember the smell I told you about? Well, it's owner may live in there." Rahne admitted.

"I don't really care, if that's our way out, then we have to go that way." Tabby said, and Jean agreed.

"Okay then, but just remember I warned you…" With that they walked into yet another unknown territory…

.

"Hello, Jubilee, Ray? Are you there?" Scott yelled. He had finally got back to the camp.

"We're over here!" Jubilee yelled back. They were sitting near the burned out campfire, eating.

"You two heard anything from the others? Scott asked. Both shook their heads.

"You sure? I haven't been able to contact anyone. I was just about to go looking for them, but I have no idea where to look." Scott admitted.

"Then I don't think that's a good idea, you might get lost." Ray said in between mouthful.

"I guess, but I can't just leave them, it's my fault if something happened, I have to at least try." Scott stated.

"Then I'll come with you." Jubilee demanded.

"No, you have to stay here with Ray." Scott pointed out.

"No she don't, but we will." A familiar voice replied, as three known faces and a stranger suddenly appeared in front of him.

"And thanks for the ride." Kitty said as she jumped off the redheads back, followed by Rogue who got carried bridal style. Kurt had managed to port himself so she only had to carry two.

"You're welcome, though I sure aren't used to carry so mch weight while running." The girl said in between breaths. Then she spotted the food. Then all her energy suddenly came back.

"Who is that?" Scott asked, looking at the stranger.

"This is the one who have been stalking us. Don't worry though, she isn't our enemy." Kurt stated.

"Then what is she doing here? Just hanging out?" Scott asked.

"Kinda. Look, she isn't the one who trashed our camp, and she isn't the one who set up the traps, someone else did, and I have a feeling she knows who that is." Rogue whispered.

"Very well. Jubilee, you're allowed to come." Scott said, and then they walked off.

"Aw, I wanted to go too." Kitty complained.

"Really? I'm just happy to finally get to relax." Rogue admitted as she leaned up against a rock.

Some hours later…

Scott and Jubilee came back empty handed. There was no sign of the others, and this worried everyone. Where could they all be? No one could just disappear like that, not even in a big jungle like this, no, something was wrong, very wrong indeed…

That was the end of chapter what, eight? Well leave a review and help support this story. ;)
