Wolverine walked into the interrogation roomand smiling as he lit a cigar he looked over at the massive captive and siad. "We can do this the easy was or the hard way big boy." Standing across from him at the table, he asked, "Okay who sent you?"
Groundpounder looked up at Logan and sneered as he began to speak. " I HATE BEING CALLED BIG BOY!!!!!!!!!!!" He yelled as he stood up and threw the table at the small mutant. Although he was restrained, Groundpounder managed to hike up enough energy to smash the floor and renedering Wolverine to the ground.
"Okay bub, hard way it is!" He snarled as he extracted his adamantium claws and began to battle the massive mutant.

"Bring it on, Tiny!" Groundpounder shouted, "Don't need my hands to take on the likes of you, they made sure of that!"

"This," Simian said puffing up his chest as they walked down the corridor, "Is officially know as Compound #3--Northwestern detachment headquarters for the X-Men. Basicly it's home for the X-Team stationed to handle this section of the country and some of western Canada. We got Alaska too, Utopia Isle got lucky to be zoned Hawaii but I like the trees up here more. Better swinging ya know?"
He lead them down to the mess hall where it was almost full to capacity. "It's also home to mutants who wish to learn how to fine tune their powers, either just to live more comfortably or with an aim to join the X-Men. That's what I did, been a fan of 'em since they went public when ol' Cyclops moved the team from Westchester to San Fransico."

Cerebro sat floating there for a few minutes in silence as he mentally digested all that he had just learned. He now knew something of the true origins of the mutants that lived in the Valley and why they seemed to almost religously cling to passifistic ways and in a way he understand why they had been wiped out. If C.E.L.L. was anything like Project X in terms of keeping their secerts then something like a living breathing community of free experiments might lead to someone one sniffing around their base in Mexico City and questions he was sure they did not really want to answer. He also had a fairly good idea of just who was hiring the expensive lawyers that kept getting the arrested terriorists out of custody so readily. And looking at things in a new light, Cerebro was certain that the others that had been freed were also former "patients" like Groundpounder and Juggernaut.
He was relieved to find out the the government wasn't involved. At least not directly, he sighed inwardly at the thought of cleaning up yet another mess that the powers that run the nation had created and poorly managed. He wouldnt even be surprised to learn that thsi was Gyrich or Val Cooper's mess.
Remembering that Logan was interogating Groundpounder this morning and knowing that the old man prefered "hard" tactics he tilted his head and telepathicly sent "Stop whatever you are doing and or about to do, Logan. We have a change of direction in this case. Meet me in the War Room."
He then turned his attention back to Cain, "Do you think your departure from C.E.L.L.'s 'care' left you unwelcome?"

Robin looked at the crowed. "Wow, Hogwarts school for mutants. So where to next the gift shop?"

Cain smilled his biggest smile and held his arms out like waiting on a big hug from Cerebro.
"This is something even i am proud of. See, they wanted someone who was familiar with the X-men to infiltrate one of thier bases and learn their secrets. So, i "volonteered" as it were. I knew coming to you was the best idea since you are the darn near best thing to happen since by half brother Charles."
He huffed and stood up again. His massive frame casting a huge shadow in the room.
"Actually i was supposed to be back one month ago. Probably why they sent Groundpounder. To stir the waters to see if i would show. Now i reckon then they might think that i am dead or in a holding cell. But either way we gotta come up with a good story to fool their psychic muntants they have on staff."
Juggernaut folds his arms and waits to see what kind of brillaint idea Cerebro has to get him back inside that facility

"Convent that you were sent here to infiltrate us," Cerebro said then eyed his helmet over by the bed, "Of course if you were lying to me right now I'd know with my telepathic talents. If you're fairly certain that Groundpounder and the other terrorist attacks were all part of trying to get a bead on you, lets give it to them."

"Does that hurt? How about this one? Or that?"
The drill sergent ketp yelling and yelling at Dorian each time he shot him. And each time, within seconds, the wound would fall like dust frmo his skin and he would laugh.
"oh no. pleae dont hurt me anymore. Someone help. The big bad man with a gun is trying to hurt me. You really are as stupid as you look, you know that."
Dr Parkingapp walks into the firing cell and holds his hand up. The Sergent stops firing and lowers his pistol. A look of hatred is on his face for Dorian. Upon seeing this, Dorian blows him a kiss which gets a responce of a middle finger.
"Oh really. Well if there is dinner and a movie involved, i might think about it. Anything is better than this humdrum of a place."
Dr Parkingapp smiles a fake smile at Dorian and walks calming over to him.
"Mr Gray, we here would appriciate your upmost cooporation in these tests we are currently running. But if you like we can let you leave. Actually you are of no use to use really. All we need is one little thing from you. The Amulet, Mr Gray. Where is that Amulet?"
"Alright, you talked me into it. I slipped it into the bag of a young girl waiting on the bus. One of your little freaks had her so terrified that she didnt notice me. Find her and find the amulet."
Dr Parkingapp smiled and nodded his head. Dorian felt a tiny prick on his neck then blackness.

"wait a sec now brains. You still dont get it do ya. I tried tellen ya without coming right out and admittin anythin."
Again Cains massive chest heaved a heavy load.
"It was me Cerebro. I was the one who killed those muntants. I was under their control. Thats the main reason i came here when C.E.L.L. asked me to. I was hopin you could help me figure dis stuff out. I mean what with me tryin to go all good guy and stuff."
Cain fell to his knees and begain to sob before Cerebro .
"I didnt mean to kill'em. There were families there. Children. they made me into a monster again. AND I (balls his fists) HATE THEM FOR IT!! I HATE THEM!!"
The Juggernaut slams his balled fists into the floor with such force that is shakes the entire building, knocks the security door off its hinges and places two distict craters into the triple think reinforced room. Cain quickly stands up and looks at Cerebro with bloodshot and angry eyes.
"If yopu are gonna take them down. I'm in. Afterwards ill pay for what i did if it comes to that. But right now!!! As my friend Bruce Banner would say..JUGGERNAUT SMASH!!!"

"Ooh I live for this stuff!" Wolverine said as he pounced at his large adversary. Plunging his claws deep into Groundpounder's chest, he screamed out in agony. Wolverine, sitting on his chest slowly removed one of his claws leaving the other buried deep in the mutant's chest. Watching the blood drip slowly from the shiny adamantium, he looked into Groundpounders teary eyes and said, "Now you feel like talkin', bub?"

Cerebro didn't know weither to feel sorry for the man or angry at him. A little of both seemed to win at the same time, "YOU! You committed that massacre and I had you here the whole bleeding time! Do you realize how much tension I couldve prevented had you told me this when you first got here!!!"
He telekineticly hoisted the television and slammed it against the wall reducing it to tiny pieces. "I could have handled this situation differently, quietly. But now I have be as delicate as a sledgehammer! And yes I know youre about to say you were controlled, I understand that. Fine, you want redemption, Cain, I will give you redemption but with conditions."
"One, you will take us to the C.E.L.L. base. You will get us inside so we can take this thing apart once and for all. Two, you will do this publicly. No more sulking and hiding from the world down here, you will be a member of my X-Men squad and you will actively work off all of your past crimes. We both know that list is a long one. Now, it's time to plan this little party we are about to throw."
"ALL X-MEN. STOP WHAT YOU ARE DOIND AND REPORT TO THE WAR ROOM! NOW!!!"

Simian was in midsentence when he "heard" Cerebro's rather loud telepathic summons in his head. The leader only got that loud when it was urgent and or he was in a really angry mood, this felt like both.
"Looks like the tour is about to be cut short," he said apologictly, "Rather I am about to show you something I was saving til later. The War Room."

Cainwas alone again in his room. The silence there was deaffening considering all he had told Cerebro.
"Work off my past crimes, huh." Those words still ringing in his ears. But somehow the thought the of being on an actual team again didint feel quite so bad. cain even smiled at the thought of finally being an X-man.
Slowly Cain got up from his bunk and, after eight months of isolation, begins to put back on the costume that had made him so infamous in the past. AS Cain placed the huge helmot on his head, he smiled, starting to feel like his ole self again.
"Take a nap Cain Marko. The Juggernaut is back!" He beats his fist into the palm of his hand and walks out the door of his room. Btu somehow he knew that This fight would change him forever.

"ALL X-MEN. STOP WHAT YOU ARE DOING AND REPORT TO THE WAR ROOM! NOW!!!"
"What was that? That was no intercom was it? That was in my head." But way was she hearing it. She wasn't an X-men, yet.
With all the questions she had, Robin kept quiet. She knew when to be serious. The mood on Simian was changed. She followed him as best as he could.

"Damn! I was just gettin warmed up!" Wolverine said as he heard the summons to the war room. He looked at the bleeding behemouth mutant and said "We'll finish this later, bub!" And head butted Groundpounder rendering him unconsious.
Logan got up, picked up his leather jaket and made his way to the war room.
