"So what did you guys think of the movie?" Hawk asked as they walked out of the theater. They found a bench to sit on and wait for Storm to come and pick them up.

"Pretty interesting," Rogue said. "I like the part when Salt betrays the people she's worked for because they killed her husband."

"Pretty intense too," Ali said. "Although, those moves she pulled off were pretty impressive."

"I just wished they didn't leave us hanging," Kitty said.

"I know. But those moves were pretty cool, you have to admit. I wish I could pull off moves like that," Hawk said, "they were pretty unpredictable. I couldn't believe her partner though..."

Isis opened her eyes and whimpered; her sides were killing her, and her head felt like it had just exploded. Sabretooth was still having his time with a struggling Storm. Isis, despite her better judgment, limped painfully out of the alley. When she was sure she was clear of any danger, she plopped down on her side and began to lick a couple of her wounds. Hawk was going to have a fit when she saw her. Probably freak when she finds out what's going on with Storm. But that could wait. She rested on her side, and fell into a nice sleep. Dreaming about her revenge on Sabretooth.

Storm continued to struggle, but it was no use. He had her pinned. She had knocked her head on the wall a little bit earlier, and had just woken up. Tears starting to stream down her cheeks now; all of it from fear, shame, and pain.

X

Sabretooth smiled at seeing the tears stream down her face. He now had her under his control, and there was nothing she could do about it. He had broken her. A sadistic smile crossed his lips. He leaned a little closer. "Having fun, Princess?" He whispered.

X

That little jaunt gave her the energy to start fighting again. She scratched him; causing his head to jerk to the left. He growled; a growl that was full of rage and, at the same time, satisfaction. She knew that she had crossed the line. Another twisted malicious and sadistic smile appeared on his face, and then he threw her against the wall. She blacked out, his face being the last thing she saw.

Hawk rubbed her forehead. "You okay, Hawk?" Rogue asked.

"I don't know," Hawk replied. "You know, this is the second time that this has happened. I could've sworn that I had inhaled somethin' smellin' horrible. But that's obviously not the case considering we're outside."

Rogue shrugged. "Hey," Ali said. "Shouldn't Storm have picked us up by now?"

Everyone looked at their watches. "Yeah," Hawk replied. She took out her Cherry Red Pantech Reveal, and dialed Storm's number.

There was a soft trill of a ring from the goddess' jacket. Sabretooth took out the phone. The caller ID showed the Goddess and the younger brat; who's name was apparently Hawk- at least, that was what the caller ID said. He hit the ignore button.

X

"Hi, you've reached Storm. I'm sorry I'm not available right now, so please leave a message at the sound of the beep."

The others turned to look at Hawk. Voice mail, she lipped. "Hi, Storm. It's Hawk. Just wonderin' where you are. Movie's over and everything. Call me back when you get this message."

After that, they each called Storm every ten minutes. After Kitty called her and got voice mail again, Hawk made a decision. "Who wants to call up Logan?"

X

When Storm came to, Sabretooth was no longer there. Relieved, she tried to sit up; only to have to suppress a cry of pain. Her whole body ached, and her scratches- which weren't pretty- stung. Slowly, even though it hurt her, she sat up. She saw her phone next to her jacket. When she looked at it, she saw that she had missed four calls. The girls were out of the movie. They were just going to have to call Logan- which, Storm was confident they were doing- for a ride. She grabbed her jacket and quickly put it on. Then hugged it around her. Suppressing gasps and cries, she slowly got up, then called on a wind to take her up, creating a small cloud to cover her. Luckily no one was out on her street then. There was not going to be any discussion about this when she got back. No one was going to find out about what happened. No one was going to think she was weak.

"Where's Storm?" Logan demanded.

"That's just it Logan," Hawk replied. "We don't know. She on her way home with Isis the last time we saw her. Said she had to grade some papers."

"Well, she's not here. Neither is Isis."

"Then could you please come and pick us up?"

Logan sighed. "Alright."

Logan was at the theater fifteen minutes later. "Shot gun!" Rogue called.

After the other girl's were settled in the back, Logan began to drive again. "So, how was the movie?"

"Good," all four replied.

"All though, I don't understand why Storm didn't go home or pick us up on time," Kitty said.

Hawk was about to reply, when there was a stabbing pain in her head and ribs. She hissed between her teeth then looked out the window. She saw a white lump of fur on the sidewalk. "Stop the car!" Hawk said, jumping out. "Isis!"

The white wolf looked up and whimpered. "It's going to be okay, girl. Logan!" Logan poked his head out of the car, then raced over as she called his name. She placed her hand on the back of the wolf's neck. There was a little blood there, but nothing major- that she could see. She could also feel her pain. "Light's out girl," she murmured, putting the wolf in a nice comfortable sleep. "Give me your jacket."

"What? Why?"

"Because we're going to need a stretcher, just do it."

Logan did, and Hawk slowly levitated the wolf onto the jacket. "Ali! Kitty! Help me!"

The two girls complied and they managed to fit her in the back seat on their laps. Hawk stroked the fur, and everyone could sense her tension. If someone harmed one of her three animals- Midnight Storm, her black Andalusian mare; Sky, her hawk; or Isis, they paid dearly for it. There was a tense silence on the way home.

They were all surprised to see Storm home. Logan came over to greet her, but she backed away from him a little. From the small gap between them, Logan could tell that she had just showered, and put on alot of makeup. This made him curious. Hawk also noticed, but kept her thoughts to herself. Her main focus was Isis. Logan turned back to Storm, and saw that she trembled a little. Wait, trembling? He took another look at her arms, they were definitely shaking. "You okay, 'Ro?" he asked.

"Yes," she said hastily. "I'm just going off to my now room now. Just making sure the girls got home okay."

There was a slight change in her scent. And her step was hurried as she went up the staircase. Everyone was looking at each other, wondering what the heck just happened?
