Logan grabbed Liz before she could do anything.
"Slim...Open it."

This time, Scott opened the cell.
Logan holding onto Liz, exited the cell in a heartbeat.

The second they were outside. Scott closed the cell off.

"Let go of me!"Liz said and got out of Logans grip.

She turned around to face him and said "You had no right to do that!" with a angry voice.

(If I get a bit... melo-dramatic, please say )

Eevee weeped as she huddled up into the corner of the corrider, whimpering like the lost, confused coward she was deep inside.
She didn't want to tell anyone that her telepathic abillity seemed to fade away dramaticly over the past hours, but would that mean that she was losing her powers?
She gazed at a near-by window, the light of the moon reflecting on the glass. She concetrated harder and as soon as she blinked, the glass shattered, the pieces scattering to the floor. She let out a silent shriek as she pieces seemed to skid towards her. The pieces drifted into the air, hovering around Eevee. She twisted her head slightly and the shattered glass flew across the room and dug through the wall.
She may of started to lose her telepathic abbility but her telekenesis was becoming stronger...

Logan took Liz to one side
"I have every right to save you from getting into a bigger mess. We needed him contained. Not cut to ribbons."

While Logan was talking to Liz, Professor Xavier was at Tanias feet.
She was still clutching her head...Cyclops could get nothing from her.
She was clutching her head, wincing with apparent pain.

"I'm getting nowhere fast, Professor" said Scott apologetically to Xavier.

"It's alright Scott. I'll reach her" he replied, reassuringly.

Professor Xavier began to reach out to Tania with his mind.

The pain began to dull but as Tania looked forward. The containment area began to change. She looked at Xavier, standing in front of her. Everything was white, soft, calm.

"Professor...you...you're.." she couldn't get the words out.

"We're on the astral plane Tania. We're inside your mind. You were in some distress. I apologise, but this seemed the only way to soothe you and bring you back to us"

"I can't make it stop Professor. The emotions, the feelings they were all in my head. Good, bad indifferent. It was overwhelming me. I couldn't stop it like I've been trained to before" Tania said as she and Xavier seemed to walk forward.

The whiteness, changed to an open green field. Trees and a wooden hut.

"My old house?" she asked

"This is where your mind feels most comfortable. We can talk here, I will help you through this." Xavier replied comforting her.

-Back on the Astral plane-

"I still don't understand" Tania looked at Xavier with a mixture of wonder and bemusement.

"How I'm walking?" he asked, she replied with a nod
"On the Astral Plane I can use my mind to project images. Make a safe haven inside your mind. Here I can project an image of myself walking."

"So...how can you help me, Professor." Tania stated, eager to get it over with.

"Just relax. Let your mind tell you what you need."

Suddenly the peaceful green, changed. It was dark, foreboding.
An image of her father came in to her head.

Tania let out a cry, realising the connection had broken. She looked at Xavier. He knew. She shot straight up from her feet and ran.

Logan ran from Liz's side and chased Tania down the hallway.

Liz looked at Xavier and thought "I need to see him Professor." and he looked at her.

"See who Elizabeth?"his voice said.

"Magneto."she thought and left the room.

"Elizabeth?!"Xavier said.

"What?"Scott said confused.

Tania kept running and found her way to her room. Slamming the door behind her. She stood with her back to it.
She began to get very restless, and started pacing back and forward across her room.
She looked down at her bedside table. There was a framed photograph of Tania with her mother and her Step-Father Daniel.
She picked it up and she stared at it. The photograph was old, Tania was younger. Her natural blonde hair flowing over her shoulders.
She closed her eyes, waves of emotion sweeping over her.

In an uncontrollable fit of rage she threw the frame at the wall. She collapsed onto her knees, holding her head in her hands. Trying to hold back the tears.
"Not for him" she thought aloud "Not for him"

She looked through her mass of dyed black hair to see Logans feet.
She ignored his presence and began to pick up the photograph. Picking off the small shards of glass.

"Darlin...." Logan began
"What's goin on?" he asked softly, realising she was in some deep distress.

Tania thrust the photograph up to him.
"Look at me."

"You were a cute kid." he offered

"Look deeper Logan." Tania stood up and looked at him
"Look deeper, tell me what you see"

Logan was confused, her tone was hard and cold.
"Darlin, I don't understand."

"I have to go...I can't stay here with...him....here" Tania stated, choking on her words.

"Him who? Sabretooth? He's locked up darlin', he can't get to you" he replied

"No...I have to go." she hung her head low, ashamed of who she was.

Logan lifted her head up to meet his gaze.
"Talk to me. Tell me what's eating away at you"

"I...I don't know who I am anymore...not since he arrived. At first I thought it was just some sort of after effect of my mutation. But....Hank..." he trailed off

Logan started to look concerned.
"Hank what?"

"You always said I had a familiar look to you. So I ask you again, look at me. Really look. Can't you see it..."

Logan gave her a blank look.

"He's my father Logan....that maniac is my father."

Logan looked shocked. Tania pulled away, grabbing a large bag and she began to stuff clothes into it.

Logan put his hand gently on her arm.

"Darlin'..you don't have to go because of this"

She looked at him, her eyes full of hurt and confusion.
" I have to. How can I expect the kids to trust me. When I can't trust myself? I have no alternative. I have to go."

"There's always another way. Please...don't go" he looked deeply into her eyes.

They held there gaze for a moment before Tania shook her head.
"I have to go back to Canada. I have to see my mother. Let her know what I know now"

Logan nodded reluctantly.
"I understand. I don't like it, I don't want you to go. But I respect you and your choice. I'm behind you 100%"

Tania pulled him to her and they hugged tightly.
"Boy I'm gonna miss you...miss this"

They pulled apart and looked at one another.

Liz got out from the mansion, she walked over to the fountain and sat down, her face was hurting but she didn't care that much.

Mazon came and sat down next to her,she stroke his head and said "Hey sweety." and he licked her arm a little.

She had not relised it before but she was so alone here compared when she was on Magnetos side and it hurted so much inside of her.

"I don't know what to do Mazon..."she said and he put his head in her knee

She stroke his head again and a tear rolled down her cheeck,Mazon looked up at her and made a sound.

"I'll be ok sweetheart.I always am sooner or later.Don't worry."she said and felt how someone was watching her.

She looked up from Mazon and faced Xavier, she looked away.

Tania walked back to continue her packing.

"When you leavin'?" Logan asked as he walked over to her.

"In he morning" She looked at the clock and corrected herself.
" Later this morning. I need to maybe try and get some rest. Long journey ahead of me. In more ways than one"

"Do me one last favour, before you go." Logan said turning her to face him.

"What is it?" she asked quietly

"Promise me you'll be back."

"Logan..I don't know. I...I want to come back. I have to sort this out with my mother. It could take a while."

"That's good enough for me darlin" he smiled at her.
"I'll see you downstairs when yer ready to leave."

"Are you leaving?"he said calm.

"I don't know...I don't know what will happend if I do."she said and looked at him.

"Meaning?"he said.

"I can't pretend that I don't miss it...A part of me wants to go back."

"And you're afraid that you will if you meet him?"

"Yes...and if I do I'll lose Tania and Logan.They've taken care of me sence day one here and they count on me..."she said and looked at Mazon.

"Why do you think you will lose them?"

"When I'm there...I change...Become this cold person...All I do is fight...But then again,I'm not alone there."

"You're not alone here either Elizabeth."

"In a way I am professor...I'm not like anyone of you...Compared to all of you I'm a bad person."

Eevee looked at the directions which Liz & Tania went, and sniffed slightly.
"Liz? Tania?", she cried out, feeling like it was Deja Vu.

Logan looked down at her. It wasn't his place to tell her. But he had to tell her something, something as close to the truth as possible.
"She resting kid. She's had a chaotic day."
