Cut to Scott's room, Storm jerks and looks back at Scott, "did you hear that?" Scott nods. A look of shock ensued, "Oh God, Rogue." Cut to Rogue's room Rogue gets away from the window as she runs away, Sabretooth jumps and grabs her foot. Rogue loses her balance and she falls hitting her head on the side of the bed. Sabretooth, proud of his rather easy apprehension, lets his guard down,he begins to grab a blanket, when a fluorescent beam of light misses him by inches. The beastly attacker growls with fear. He lunges towards the X men, when Storm's marble eyes produces a lightening that immobilizes Sabretooth. Scott gets close to the intruder to make sure he is of no immediate threat, he takes the electric cord and uses it as constraints. Meanwhile Storm had rushed to their fallen friend. A worried Storm looks at Scott, -"She's unconscious, probably because of a concussion. She needs a doctor." Scott takes a deep breath, "She can't exactly go to a hospital." -"She has to, at least until Jean gets here." Storm and Scott look at each other. Professor Xavier's room Professor Charles Xavier's eyes shot open. His telepathic ability has offered a vivid image of the ordeals of his friends. He telepathically summons Jean and Logan. Logan was having an unusually quiet night, his nightmares seemed to have subsided this past week. The intruding voice called on him. He opened his eyes and immediately got up. Jean was still on her computer, trying to find some information on Biomutaton. The glare of the screen was being reflected on her glasses. As of yet, she has not been able to clear any of the security levels. Her concentration was interrupted by the Professor. She rose up and joined him. Hotel Room -"Scott, The paramedics and the police will be here soon, what do you want to do with Sabretooth?" -"You hit him pretty hard, I'll just move him to the closet. We'll tie him up more and take care of it after we make sure everything is OK with Rogue." Scott and Storm stood aside as the paramedics made their way to Rogue. Touch, something so simple is so complicated in the case of Rogue. Luckily, they did not have to divulge that information because they were wearing gloves and long sleeves. Scott and Storm had agreed to remain close by. The ambulance ride seemed like a lifetime. Rogue was still unconscious. Storm rode in the ambulance, Scott followed along in the car, with Sabretooth tied up in the trunk. Cyclops thought to himself, for a big fellow a little lightening sure knocked him out. * * * Logan gazed at the Professor with a look of discontent, -"I really don't appreciate being called like this." The Professor looks over at Jean who stood in the doorway, "We have to go." Logan turns around to look at Jean and back at the Profesor, "Go where?" Jean and the Professor look at each other, she understood what he saw. Logan stared at the duo, his patience was getting shorter by the second, -"Listen, I am not a damn telepath, what the hell is goin' on?" Jean looking at the Professor continues with apprehension, "Scott, Storm and Rogue were attacked." She felt her heart sinking in. Logan's eyes widened with a mele of anger and fear. Before he could open his mouth, Professor X picked up on his train of thought, -"Sabertooth attacked them." Logan was angry, he formed to fists as if to control his rage, "Should have killed the bastard when I had the chance." Jean, a little softer, "Are they all right?" Professor nods, "They will be, Scott and Storm are fine, as for Rogue...." Logan's impatience was getting the best of him, "Rogue what?!" -"She's in an ambulance." Logan exclamed a little louder, "Let's go...now." Hospital Storm and Scott sat in the waiting area. They were still waiting on the doctor to allow them to leave with her. Scott had called the Professor and informed him of the situation. They were quiet, deep down they knew that she would be fine, but they need a reassurance. The Doctor approaches the duo, " She'll be all right, she has a concussion, she's sleeping right now." Scott begins, "Can we take her home Dr.?" -"With a concussion that's followed by a loss of consciousness we keep the patients for 24 hours for observations." Storm smiled, "Thank you Dr. Can we see her?" -"Yes, right this way." As Storm and Scott made their way down the hall. The loud footsteps coming from behind them caused them to turn around, they were happy to see the familiar faces of their friends. Logan was leading the pack, when he yelled, "Where is she?" Scott, understanding his concern, "She's fine, she's in a room, sleeping." Logan, without a second thought and with a little more intensity, "Where is she?" -"Room 438" Storm replied. Logan disappeared from their view. Scott looked on at Jean, "He's back." Jean returned the look and answered, "Yes, he is. Are you OK?" -"Now that you are here." Professor Xavier began, "First thing first, where's Sabertooth? we need to take care of that." Storm replied, "In the trunk of the car." Jean continued, "i brought some tranquilizers for the ride home. A beast like him needs to be sedated" Scott retorted, "Maybe you should have used them on your friend." Jean shot him the evil eye, and the quartet proceeded out of the hospital. Room 438 Logan walked into the room, he was so quiet. He noticed the beginnings of a bruise on the side of face. She looked so serene, sleping there. He got closer, and smiled. The artificial lights of the hospital made her look paler and her white hair whiter. He sat in the chair adjacent to the bed. He sunk into it, his hands were now under his chin, looking on at her. He closed his eyes for a moment when he heard Rogue's voice, -"We have to stop meeting like this?"
