Chapter 14-Family Reunion
Jean ran into the living room, skidding to a halt. Everyone was sitting around the room, some talking quietly, but most everyone was staring around, saddened by the kidnapping of their mentor. “Logan’s...in some kind...of...trouble.” She managed to pant to the group of people.
“What do you mean?” Hank asked, rising from the chair he’d been sitting in for quite awhile.
“I...lost contact with him. But it was more than that, someone is blocking me from talking with him...a telepath.” She said, her frown deep. She then quickly explained about what Logan had found. Before she was even done, Hank was heading for the door.
“Where do you think you’re going?” Storm asked stepping in front of the door to block him.
“Logan probably found the spot Charles is being held, I have to go find out.”
“Not alone you’re not!!” Storm argued. Hank’s eyes blazed brightly with anger.
“There’s no way you can stop me!!” He growled dangerously, pushing by the weather witch. He hurried out the door and started down the hall.
“Please be careful, Hank!!” Storm called out from the door, leaning around the frame to see him. She frowned, turning to the group of assembled students to find them hurrying to get ready. ‘Hopefully we won’t be too late...’ She thought as she followed suit with the students.

Charles stared at Lucas, not believing he had set this all up. “Why did you do all this?” He asked, wrapping his arms tighter around the bundle in his arms as Lucas stopped a few feet from them. Mystique moved to stand in front of Charles, wanting to protect the baby girl, if at all possible.
“Guess ah jus’ feel like killin’ ya, father!!” The last word came out in a hiss. “Ah may have a reason for doin’ this, but ah don’ have ta explain myself ta you of all people!!” The baby was pulled from Charles’ arms suddenly and flung into Mystique, the two of them flew sideways into a wall. The blue shapeshifter slid to the floor unconscious and the baby began crying for the first time since all this had started. Charles charged at Lucas, trying to tackle him.
“Not so fast father!!” Lucas called out, holding the telepath in place with his powers. “Let’s have some family bonding first!!” He smirked, moving within range of Charles floating in the air. Lucas placed his fingers on the telepath’s temples, forcing his way into his mind…

Hank had ‘borrowed’ Logan’s motorcycle and had made it to the cliff he had found. ‘Now all I have to do is make my way down!!’ He thought to himself, frowning at the thought. Moving carefully to the edge, he knelt down and began to lower himself down the side, holding onto the ledge. Looking down he swallowed hard. ‘That’s a long way down! Hmmm, I can barely see the hole Logan made. Guess I have no choice!’ Taking a deep breath, Hank let go of the cliff, letting gravity take him down to the opening. Hank managed to grab part of the ripped open hole with one hand, but the metal sliced into his hand, causing him to loose his grip and fall backwards towards certain death.

*Charles’ POV*
Lucas was everywhere inside my mind, I couldn’t block him out. He had locked my telepathy in a dark corner of my mind, and no matter how hard I struggled, I couldn’t break through that barrier. There was no way to resist the images he was throwing at me. I trembled inside at the horrible things he was showing me. ‘They’re not real, they’re not real!!’ I told myself, but the images in my head were too graphic not to be real.
An image of Hank appeared behind my vision, his eyes so full of hatred and anger, it made my skin crawl. He advanced on me with a snarl on his face. He grabbed me by the shirt and flung me into the wall, yelling incoherently at me.
Another image. I was facedown and naked on the bed. I could feel Hank hovering over me. He tugged my hips up and entered without any preparations… ‘NOO!! This isn’t real! Make it stop!!!’ I yelled at Lucas, feeling him crawling around inside my mind like an insect on a dead body. *No, you have to suffer for what you did!* Lucas called out in my mind, sending more horrible images to me. The line between my real memories and the fake ones began to blur. It was becoming hard to tell them apart.

*Hank’s POV*
I had barely managed to hook my toes over the opening into the complex after I had slipped. Carefully I swung myself upright and slid through the hole. “That, was a close one!” He muttered, sitting down for a minute to catch his breath. Once his breathing had slowed, he jumped up and hurried after Logan’s scent, blood trailing behind him as it dripped from his wounded hand.
“Come on Logan! Where are you?” Hank muttered to himself. He hurried around a corner only to freeze in his tracks. “Charles…he’s in pain!” He could feel his fear and horror. “Something’s not right!” He changed direction, feeling his love’s presence through the link that had formed between them.

Logan finally managed to move after being flung through several metal walls. “That damn kid is gonna pay for that!!” He growled angrily as he pulled himself out of the dented wall. He walked quickly, stopping at the hole in the wall. “He threw me through 5 damn metal walls, and into a 6th one! I don’t think Jean coulda done that. The kid sure has a lot of power in him. Let’s see how well he can do against these!” He growled, claws sliding from between his knuckles as he strode forward and began making his way through the debris of metal and back to where Lucas was.

Mystique woke groggily, rubbing the back of her head where it had hit the wall. “Damn that hurt!” She muttered to herself. Carefully placing the baby girl on the floor, she looked around to see what was going on. Lucas had Charles frozen in front of him, and he must have been doing something to his mind as he had his eyes closed and his fingers on Xavier’s temples. ‘Have to stop him.’ Looking around Mystique spotted a pipe attatched to the wall that looked sturdy enough to use.
She hurried over to it and gripped the pipe tightly. Placing her foot on the wall for leverage, she yanked and managed to pry the object off the wall. Mystique stumbled back a ways, her momentum sending her a few feet away before she managed to regain her footing. She walked up next to Lucas, hefting the pipe in her hand she swung it down onto his head.
“Heh heh!!” Lucas laughed, eyes flashing open. The bar stopped an inch from his head, not doing any damage due to the telekinetic barrier around his body. “Thought Ah didn’ see ya there, did ya?” Lucas let Charles drop to the ground, and used his powers to throw Mystique through a hole in the wall, then using the pyrokinesis he’d gotten from Ian to seal the opening.
X X X X X X X X
Logan saw a flash of blue an instant before it crashed into him, knocking him back through the hole he’d just gone through. “What the hell? Mystique?” He questioned as the shapeshifter crawled off of him. “You’re the one who..!!”
“We don’t have time for that right now Logan!” She told him, scrambling back through the hole. Logan followed quickly after her. “Damn! He’s sealed the room! Logan, Charles and his baby are with Lucas in there! We have to help them!”
“Alright, you find a different way in. I’m going in through here.”
“Through the fire?!” Mystique exclaimed.
“Yeah, there’s no time to cut through the wall, it’s too thick. I’ll be fine, my healing factor, remember? Now get moving!” He shouted, then ran and lept through the flames. Mystique then hurried up the wall to a ventilation shaft and shimmied into it.
