This is one of the very few places on the Estate that is actually as it seems. The Hangar Bay is just that, an underground area for the storage of the X-Men's aircraft, notably the Blackbird. The exit and entry point has been relocated. Prior to reconstruction, it was located at Devil's Rock, but now it is located beneath the basketball court. A klaxon will sound to warn anyone nearby to evacuate the area. Students, faculty, and X-Men are advised to move immediately.

[Enter Rogue from the Kitchen]
Rogue stormed into the hangar mumbling angrily to herself. Once she got to the empty hangar, the Mississippi native fumed for a for a few seconds before she tapped her comm, "To ahnyone who gives a crap, Ah'm about ta go take on Magneto an tha Brotherhood. If ahnyone want ta come help meh, meet meh in tha Hangar Bay in ten minutes. Ohtherwise, Ah gotta to kick tha crap outta the Brotherhood mahself. An when Ah'm done, Ah'll beh extra pissed off, when Ah come back."
After switching off her com, Rogue stood beside the Blackbird checking her watch....

A few minutes after Rogue's proclamation, the sound of boots hitting the floor could be heard in the garage as X-23, clean now from her shower and in some fresh clothes that were virtually identical to what she had worn before, walked into the room.
"I will help you, Rogue. I am not sure if anyone else will, though." she said to the Southern-born mutant, her cool green eyes looking at the Blackbird and then to Rogue.

Rogue gave X-23 a grim smile and placed a gloved hand on her shoulder, "Laura, Ah do appreciate it. We'll wait for a little while longer ta see if anybody else shows -- otherwise after we kick Brotherhood butt, we'll have ta come back an kick butt here."

Laura slowly glanced at Rogue's shoulder on her hand, and then looked to Rogue and gave a small smile.
"I suppose we will, Rogue. So, the situation is Magneto attacking a hospital. Do we have any other information?" she asked.

"Thaht's what we don't have much on. Mags is keepin his cards close to his chest, and the Prof. wants us ta find out what he's up ta and stop im," Rogue answered as best as she could.

Laura nodded slowly. "So, what do you suggest we do? Go in guns-blazing, or hang back once we reach the area and try to get an idea of what Magneto wants?" she asked.

Rogue shook her head, "Actually, I was thinkin... If they're spread out, we see if Mystique's there and K.O. her. An' Ah'd ... rather kiss a cobra, but Ah might go ahead an absorb her ta find out what's goin on. Then, we can play 'Ten Littl Indians' with them and take 'em down one atta time. With Mystique's power, we should beh able ta keep 'em confused about who all's attackin them. Tha real hard one'll beh Mags."

"You can handle Magneto. I probably should not get too close unless he is distracted," Laura replied. "I will be able to take out the others myself. Also... 'Ten Little Indians'?"

"Oh! 'Ten Littl' Indians' was an old nursery rhyme about countin and watchin Indians dissapear," Rogue paused a moment before continuing, "Actually ta be fair, Ah should a said 'An Then There Was None' which was an Agatha Christie murder mystery that's been a film a coupla of times which uses the 'Ten Littl Indians' rhyme when tha murderer bumped off somebody."

Laura simply blinked once, and then replied: "Perhaps I should watch more television..."
Then she frowned as the silence set in again. "Do you think about what happened? M-Day, I mean? When I am alone, I often think back to it. The... the chaos in the Mansion when it happened. And... and I think to myself: 'Why wasn't I depowered like the rest of them? You weren't either, of course... Why us?"

Rogue shrugged, "Ah haven't a clue. Thin' is ya can drive yaself crazy if ya keep askin why. It's not lahke we're evehr gonna get an answer, so why dwell on it?"

Laura nodded. "You are right. I simply cannot help it at times," she admitted, before looking to the entrance to the Hangar Bay.
"Is anyone else coming? I do not like waiting..." she said, folding her ams and tapping her foot impatiently against the floor.

After a few more minutes, X-23 shook her head. "I don't think anyone else is coming. We're on our own." she said bluntly to Rogue before she proceeded to enter the Blackbird.
"I assume you know how to fly this vehicle?" she asked as she got inside.
