	“Quicksilver, was that entirely necessary?”  Cyclops chided the mutant speedster when he saw what Quicksilver had done to Herbert Landon.  After he expressed his disapproval of Quicksilver’s actions, even though they were directed at a mutant-hating radical who probably deserved worse, Cyclops pressed the x-shaped communicator that was located on his chest.  “Colossus, what’s your status?”

	“Your path is clear, Cyclops.”  Colossus’ voice echoed from the communicator, “I’ll be heading back your way momentarily.”

	Meanwhile, Peter caught the key from Quicksilver.  However, unlike most keys where you would insert it into a lock, this was an electronic key.  He saw a small metallic circle on Firestar’s shackles and therefore held up the key against that spot.  When it automatically deactivated the shackles, Peter immediately searched for the same spot on the collar that was attached to Firestar.  After he freed Angelica, Peter turned to Nightcrawler and released him, too.

	[color=Red]“So, Cyke.  Is it time to go yet?”[/color]  Peter hollered up to where the field commander of the X-Men was perched [color=Red]"We've freed Firestar and Nightcrawler, so it's probably a good time to skedaddle!"[/color].

	“Um, I know that we were busy freeing Firestar and Nightcrawler, but didn’t we forget about your doppelgänger, Spidey?”  Iceman pointed out as he looked around for whoever was trying to look like Peter.  When he caught sight of the fake Spider-Man, Bobby’s jaw dropped when he saw that the doppelgänger was holding Firestar, or rather [b]another[/b] Firestar, in a choke hold.

	“Spidey, help!”  The other Firestar squirmed under the doppelgänger’s hold on her, “Don’t fall for that imposter.  I’m the real Firestar!”

	“What?”  The Firestar who was standing by Peter, Iceman, Nightcrawler, and Quicksilver replied back, “There is no way that could be me, right?  This is just [b]way[/b] too convenient to happen.”

	“Well, at least we figured out which one is the real webhead!”  Bobby blurred out, giving a smile and a thumbs up to the other X-Men and Peter, who were around him.

	[color=Red]“Thanks, Einstein!  Obviously it took an imposter having someone, who looks like Firestar, in a chokehold to clear that up.  Let’s just ignore that fact that I have been helping out this whole time.”[/color]  Peter just shook his head at his friend's comment, not knowing whether he seriously meant it or he was just cracking a joke.

	Meanwhile, while Spider-Man and the X-Men were distracted by this spectacle, Herbert Landon, who now had his pants pulled back up, and his henchmen were trying to sneak out unnoticed.  Landon already knew that they were outmatched by the present X-Men.  Now that the experiment was all but a failure, he decided that he might as well cut his losses and try again at a later date.
