Chapter Five
Daisuke groaned when she felt something wet hit her face making her slowly open her eyes and her vision was blurry. "Where am I?" She thought blinking as her vision cleared up and she saw a stone ceiling above her and she saw she was in a cage like the way Layla was in when she, Logan, Mizu and Takato rescued her. "What is this place?" She thought groggily, she then heard the cage door open up and a soldier walked in carrying a tray.
"Dinner," He said but before he could blink Daisuke was up and with her hand on his throat surprising him.
"Where am I?" She asked him but the soldier remained silent and she growled. "Access Colossus," She thought as her body was covered in organic steel and she grew one foot in height.
"Colossus's Organic Steel activated," The voice in her head said.
"I'll ask you again, where am I?" She said again applying more pressure to the soldier.
"Alkali Lake, you're in a base at Alkali Lake!" The soldier rasped and Daisuke frowned.
"Where's that?" She asked.
"Somewhere in Canada," The soldier gasped before Daisuke threw him into the wall and he was knocked out.
"Great….now I need to find a way out of here," She thought before she walked out of the cell. Meanwhile Takato and Mizu were running through the mansion with Guilmon, Coronamon and Veemon behind them.
"What're we going to do?" Veemon asked.
"I don't know, I don't know," Takato answered as he turned a corner and he bumped into someone.
"Whoa, where is the fire?" Takato looked to see it was Logan he had bumped into.
"Logan, Daisuke's be captured," Mizu told him.
"What?" He asked.
"We were looking for her when she left the hanger with the jet and we went outside to see two guys throw her in the back of a van and drive off," Takato explained.
"Did you see who took her?" Logan asked him.
"If I did we would have told you Logan, we need to find her!" Takato exclaimed frantically and Logan nodded.
"Well then we need to go find the Professor," He said.
"Right, come on," Takato said as he, Mizu, Logan, Veemon, Coronamon and Guilmon ran off in search of the Professor, they soon found him talking to Cyclops and Jean.
"Takato? What's wrong?" Jean asked him.
"Daisuke's missing," The Professor said as he read Takato's mind making Cyclops and Jean looked at him in shock and then at Takato who nodded.
"What happened?" Cyclops asked him.
"You know how Daisuke ran out of the hanger when she had touched Layla's head?" Takato asked the group.
"Yes," Jean answered.
"Well she ran out of the mansion and when we ran out there we saw two men throw her into a van before they drove off with her, we tried to stop them but they escaped before we could do anything," Mizu explained.
"Who took her?" Cyclops asked.
"They don't know, we hoped that the Professor could find her," Logan said and everyone looked at Professor Xavier.
"I'll see what I can do," He said before he moved his wheelchair off towards Cerebro, he soon entered the machine and he put on the helmet and turned Cerebro on before he closed his eyes and he focused. "Where are you Daisuke?" He thought before he found Daisuke in the base and his eyes opened slowly. He then exited Cerebro and he saw Logan, Takato, Mizu, Cyclops, Veemon, Coronamon and Guilmon standing there.
"Where is she?" Veemon asked him.
"She's in the Canadian Rockies, at Alkali Lake," He explained.
"Alkali Lake?" Cyclops asked.
"It's an abandoned military base, well that's what it seems on the surface that is, but she is there," The Professor explained.
"I'll prep the jet," Cyclops said.
"Logan, Mizu Takato, all of you suit up and meet Cyclops in the jet," Professor Xavier told them both who nodded and Veemon, Coronamon and Guilmon looked at him. "And you three can go as well, I think they will need all the help they can get, bring Daisuke back here safe and sound," He told them all and they nodded. Meanwhile Daisuke was sneaking around the base avoiding the soldiers that were patrolling the base.
"I need to get out here," She thought still using Colossus's power, she waited for a card to pass her by and she ran the other way and she came upon a computer. "What? A computer, I wonder what's on it," She thought as she saw a folder with the title Mutants on it. "I wonder what's on this," She said as she clicked on the folder and her eyes widened. "Layla…" She said as she saw information on Layla including her mutation and her age and several other things. "Parents deceased," She said before she growled. "These monsters could have killed them to abduct her," She then saw another name. "Hey, a folder on me," She said clicking on it. "Daisuke Motomiya, Age thirteen. Mutation Empathetic Mimicry, rarity of mutation: very. Wanted for experimentation for….Bio-Hybrid program?" Daisuke asked confused before she got an idea and she clicked a few buttons and she printed out several of the mutant dossiers and she folded them and she put them in her back pocket.
"Hey!" She turned to see a soldier notice her and he ran towards her but Daisuke ran at him and she flipped him over and she punched his head knocking him out.
"That was close. I need to find a way out of here," She told herself before she ran off again, she then ducked behind a wall when she heard a gunshot and a bullet hit the wall missing her by inches.
"There she is! Apprehend the mutant!" She heard a soldier shout to two others.
"Perfect," She grumbled. "Access Cyclops!" She shouted.
"Cyclops's Optic Blasts activated," The voice in her head said and she turned to face the soldiers and she fired three optic blasts at the soldiers and they were thrown backwards into the wall and were knocked out cold. Daisuke then ran off down a long corridor before she saw a door ahead.
"Finally," She thought but before she got to the door someone jumped in front of her and kicked her in the face knocking her down. "Oh, what in the?" She asked looking up to see a woman with black hair done in a ponytail standing over her. "This is new," Daisuke admitted before she fired an optic blast at the woman hitting her in the chest sending her into ceiling and Daisuke got up and opened ran to the door and opened it up only to find more tunnels. "Damn it!" She cursed before she ran off through the door trying to find the exit only for a bullet to hit the wall beside her and she turned to see the woman standing there with a pistol in her hand and Daisuke noticed the woman's eyes were hazy. "She's being controlled somehow," She thought before she felt something hit her in the neck and she blacked out again.
"How far are we?" Logan asked Cyclops who flew the jet through the sky.
"We should be there in a little while," He answered him.
"Can't this pile of junk go any faster?" Veemon asked.
"Calm down Veemon," Takato told him.
"No! My partner has been abducted, and is probably being experimented on right now!" Veemon shouted at him angrily.
"Don't worry Veemon, I promise we'll save her, even if it kills me," Mizu told him.
"Let's not get ahead of ourselves," Logan said.
"Okay guys, we're nearly there, but I have to land further away, I can't find any other landing spot," He told them.
"It'll have to do," Logan told him and Cyclops landed the jet, the ramp then lowered and everyone ran out to find Daisuke. Daisuke meanwhile groaned as she opened her eyes and found herself strapped to a chair, she struggled against the chair trying to get out of it.
"I wouldn't bother struggling," She heard a voice tell her and she saw a man walk up from behind her with the same woman from before look at her.
"Let me go!" She shouted at him.
"Now, now…let's be civilised," He told her like she was a child.
"Excuse me! After what you did to Layla and probably dozens of other mutants! You want to be civilised? You're nothing more than a monster," Daisuke spat venomously.
"Layla? Oh you mean the little mutant that you rescued," The man said.
"Yes, and she's a human being like you and me, you had no right to treat her like that," Daisuke snarled and the man looked at her and he chuckled.
"Human? Let me tell you something Daisuke, oh yes I know your name. Humans and mutants are very different, your gifts as some would call it that make you all unique are nothing more than anomalies in your DNA, you're all nothing but freaks of nature," The man told her as he leaned in to look at Daisuke. Just then an explosion rocked the base and an alarm blared. "What happened?!" He shouted to a soldier.
"Sir, some mutants are approaching the base, they're coming for this one," The soldier said as Daisuke smirked before she concentrated and her body was engulfed in fire and she broke out of her chair.
"Well it's been nice chatting to you, but I must be going," She said with a smirk.
"Stop her!" The man shouted but Daisuke was on step ahead of him and she sped off using Quicksilver's super speed and she headed towards the exit. She stopped when she came to a wall just as it exploded inwards and Daisuke activated Colossus's organic steel to protect herself from the shrapnel.
"Daisuke!" She looked through the hole to see Takato and Mizu standing there with, Coronamon Veemon and a giant red dinosaur.
"Hey guys, about time you got here," She greeted them, she then looked at the giant dinosaur in shock. "Who is that?" She asked.
"Oh this is Growlmon, Guilmon's champion form," Veemon explained and Growlmon leaned down and he sniffed Daisuke.
"Daisukemon!" He greeted happily and Daisuke rubbed his snout.
"Come on we need to get out of here," Veemon said.
"Did you guys come here on your own?" Daisuke asked them.
"No, Logan and Cyclops came with us," Takato told her.
"So where are they?" Daisuke asked him.
"Back at the jet," He answered as Growlmon glowed and he turned back into Guilmon as the group ran off through the snow. Just then a loud growl was heard and a very large and tall man with long hair, sharp teeth and claws jumped out of the trees and he landed behind the group and he threw Takato, Mizu, Coronamon Veemon and Guilmon away into the snow and the groaned as Daisuke turned and she rolled out of the way as the man tried to swipe at her with his claws.
"Who are you!?" She asked the man who just snarled at her and Daisuke frowned. "Access Wolverine," She thought and her Adamantium claws shot out of her knuckles.
"Wolverine's Adamantium Skeleton and Healing Factor activated," The voice said in her head. Her attacker roared before he ran at her and swung his claws at her but she ducked under him and rolled away before she stabbed him in the leg making him roar in pain before he swatted Daisuke away and she rolled across the ground, the man then jumped at her but she managed to avoid his attack and stab him in the stomach and he roared again before he threw Daisuke off him and she hit a tree, she looked up at the man who walked towards her and he growled again.
"Hey! Over here bub!" Daisuke and her attacker turned to see Logan running up before he tackled the man catching him by surprise and they rolled through the snow before Logan stood up and his claws shot out of his knuckles and the attacker got up and roared at Logan.
"Be careful Logan!" Daisuke told him.
"I got this," he told her before he glared at the man. "Remember me….Sabretooth?" He asked and the man now known as Sabretooth growled at Logan. Logan then ran at him and Sabretooth ran towards Logan and swung his claws at him but Logan ducked and he swung his own claws and slashed Sabretooth across the chest making him roar in pain, he then grabbed Logan by the throat and threw him away, Sabretooth was then hit in the back by Cyclops and he flew into the trees. "Thanks," Logan said and Cyclops curtly nodded, Daisuke then ran over to Takato, Mizu, Coronamon, Guilmon and Veemon who were just regaining consciousness.
"Are you okay?" She asked them.
"Oh just peachy, man that jerk is no pushover," Takato groaned.
"Come on you guys, we need to get back to the jet before he comes back," Cyclops told them.
"Right," Daisuke said. "And Cyclops….thanks….for you know coming to help," She said.
"You're welcome Stardust," Cyclops said with a small smile as everyone left and headed to the jet just before Sabretooth jumped back out of the trees and he looked around and he roared before he walked off as well. Soon everyone was in the jet heading back towards the mansion.
"So Daisuke, why did you run off?" Takato asked her slowly.
"When I was talking to Layla about who her parents were I must have activated the Professors telepathy power, I saw where she was kept before being taken to that warehouse," She answered.
"Alkali Lake?" Logan asked her.
"Yeah, when I came too in the base I managed to find a computer and guess what I found," She said.
"What?" Veemon asked and Daisuke took out the dossiers she had in her pocket and she handed them to Takato who unfolded the papers and his eyes widened before they hardened.
"Son of a bitch," He swore angrily.
"Whoa, that's the first time I heard you swear," Mizu said to her brother and Daisuke laughed while Takato smiled.
"Don't get used to it, we should show these to the Professor," He said.
"We're nearly there," Cyclops said and sure enough the jet was approaching the mansion and Cyclops brought it down into the hanger. When the group all exited the plane Daisuke was nearly knocked over by a little blonde blur.
"You're back!" Layla cheered happily and Daisuke laughed.
"Yes I am, I didn't mean to worry you," She told Layla who smiled brightly at her.
"Well we're all glad you are safe and sound Daisuke," Storm said walking over to her followed by Jean and Professor Xavier.
"Thanks, oh and Professor you should see these," Daisuke said as Takato handed the pieces of paper to the Professor who looked at them all and his gaze slightly hardened.
"Professor?" Jean asked him.
"It's nothing, excuse me," He told them and he left them.
"That was new," Cyclops said.
"Indeed," Jean agreed.
"I take it the Professor has never left like that before right?" Daisuke asked.
"That's right, what was on those papers you handed him Takato?" Storm asked him.
"Daisuke found them when she escaped the base she was taken too," He answered. "They were on several mutants including Layla and Daisuke, their age, what their powers were and who their parents were,"
"What experiments to put them through when they were caught," Daisuke said angrily.
"I see, experimentation on mutants, it happens no matter how much we don't want it to," Jean said.
"And this guy made it sound like he was justified in doing what he did," Daisuke said.
"Who was he?" Logan asked.
"I didn't catch his name, although if I see him again he'll pay," Daisuke said angrily.
"Easy Daisuke, calm down. The reason why so many people fear mutants is when a mutant reacts to hearing news like this," Mizu told her.
"Sorry, I'm just so angry that people would treat us like we're nothing more than test subjects," Daisuke said clenching her fists before she felt someone grab her hand and she looked down at Layla who was holding her hand.
"Don't be mad," She told her and Daisuke smiled at her making Layla smile back at her.
"Alright, come on squirt," She told Layla.
"I'm not a squirt!" She said stomping her foot.
"Sure, keep saying that squirt," Daisuke said and Layla whined as she and Daisuke walked off and the others followed her out of the hanger. Meanwhile with Sabretooth he had returned to his base and he walked passed a green skinned man.
"Who kicked your ass?" He asked but Sabretooth growled at him making the green skinned man smirk while Sabretooth walked into a room with a desk made of metal and a chair made of metal, an old man was sitting on the chair when he looked up at Sabretooth.
"What happened?" The old man asked. "I thought I told you to see if there were any signs of a base," He told him.
"I ran into those X-Men again, and a girl who had the same power as Wolverine," Sabretooth said quietly but the old man heard him.
"Really? Who was she?" The old man asked when a blue skinned woman with orange hair and yellow eyes walked into the room. "Yes?" The old man asked the woman.
"I think you'll want to see this," She told him and the old man stood up and followed her as did Sabretooth, the woman led them to a screen where she pressed a button on the remote and a video played of Daisuke escaping from the base using her multiple powers. "She's one of Xavier's students," The woman said.
"And a very powerful one, I have never seen a mutant such as her," The old man said.
"What should we do?" The woman asked him.
"Find her, see if she can be persuaded, if not…finish her," The old man told her and Sabretooth before he walked off.
