Domino hummed as she fed the babies, having found that they tended to behave better when she did so. Philip was finally up to a good weight for his age, and Moira was almost the size of a six month old. It made holding them an interesting affair, but Nate was making breakfast, and there was no way she was going to interupt that.

She adjusted Moira a little, to keep a good grip on her. "You know, nobody's going to have any question who Mo's daddy is. You two already look exactly alike, except for the skin thing."

Hours later Alex was putting the babies down for a nap, as both were already asleep, and smiling.

They were fun to play with, and precoscious. He wandered off, two doors down, to wake Lorna.

Just as he got in the room, there was a heaving rolling thunder, and then the door of Alex and Lorna's room seemed to fold and twist even as a hole opened int he middle of the nursery, and little green creatures poured out, grabbed the kids, and ran down the hole.

In the doorway, where they had witnessed this, Cable and Domino stood, shellshocked, and then exploded into action. Cable fell t the floor of the hole and his mind launched a probe downward even as he sent Domino to the armory. Anger and fear roared in him as he stared downward, unable to feel the children.

Just then, Alex blasted a hole in the doorspace and charged out, to gape.

"What the fuck?

Domino cursed vehemently, and ran for the weapons, grabbing the emergency baby supplies they'd stashed in the nearby gun safe. After a quick DNA test the door opened, giving Domino access to guns that would have been illegal, had they been invented yet.

She loaded up, pulling on a bulletproof vest and grabbing the rest of their underarmor. They'd pull it on as they went. She managed to be back at Cable's side within two minutes, but that was at least a minute and a half longer than they had to spare. The whole time she spat obscenities.

Lorna hovered behind Alex, gaping as well. "Oh God, no." She put her hands over her mouth, eyes wide and unbelieving.

Cable spent that time sounding the hole with his powers, and then turned to Alex and Lorna as he suited up with Domino's help.

"You two, get out of here, get all of your things and get to a hotel. This is not safe any more. tell Naamah to institute level Alpha protocol."

He turned to Domino and kissed her.

We'll get them back. I have a direction, and we will find them. He radiated confidence.

Alex sputtered.

"But, the kids, and you... and what?"

"Alex... you aren't trained enough for this and you have your own life. Check in on Naamah every now and then, let everyone know what happened, and go live your life. This is for me and Domino."

He sent love and warmth to them both, then held out his hand to Domino.

"Let's go."

	Damn right we are. I've been waiting for this ever since I got pregnant. She handed him the biggest gun and a couple bands of grenades. "Be good, kids. Next time you can tag along." Domino took Cable's hand and looked down the hole. "Man, this sucks." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He racked the gun, waved, and leaped, taking her with him, his powers enfolding them as they went downward. They floated downward, fast. He flocked a switch and handed her a set of goggles as he slid his on. Somewhere down here is a turnoff, and they went that way. We just have to find it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Awesome. She slid the goggles on, her jaw set. No other job had ever hit her this close to home. She was suddenly reminded why she hadn't even wanted to get involved with Cable in the first place. But even now, especially now, really, she wouldn't want anyone else to be with her. Any idea what we're up against? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Something small and slimy, and clawed. He shook his head. But they had a plan, or someone was controlling them. That Earthquake was too localized, too controlled, and this ran too smoothly. Something or someone was behind this. The annoying thing is, I have no idea who. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	So much for being a smarty pants telepath. When the chips are down, you gotta go with your gut. She sighed, shaking her head. You know, we suck as civilians. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He laughed quietly and sighed. This was a damnably deep cavehole. Yes we do, and we always have... we do try, though. Maybe this will be a diversion and remind us how much we like quiet? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Her thoughts were thick with sarcasm. Sure, Nate. At least we know Wade isn't behind this. Let's go through our list of enemies. Any sign of Stryfe? This is too sneaky for Apocalypse, adn too dumb even for Sinister. Time to focus. On something other than how good it would feel to empty a few clips into the bastards that had dared to take her children. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He smirked, then shook his head. "Whatever took them, we will find them, and we will get them back." He nodded. And we are coming to a place where they left the shaft. Get ready for a sharp right. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

She held on tighter to him, pulling herself so she was flush against his body. I have to say, I haven't been this hot since we gave it all up.

Even though they'd just finished having sex, and she was worried about her babies, she couldn't deny that it felt good to get her fix again. She'd missed the fighting. It was a part of herself that she didn't think she'd ever truly get away from.

God, I hope the kids are alright. They're too tiny to be alone.

	They will be. We will make it so. He moved with her, and switched them to the landing, lofting them to a standing halt in a tunnel. Ahead, darkness stretched and he nodded. "Now... we hunt." And I know what you mean... serious and yet... I could nail you to the wall right now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She nodded and got her gun ready to go. "Get your armor on. You're not metallic anymore." He could theoretically dress and move forward. "I'll take point." Because she could dodge. God, don't tempt me. As soon as we have the kids safe with us, I'm going to feed them and fuck you until I can't come anymore. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
