"If you say the words 'this instant' one more time, Hook, I will call in some of my special friends to calm you down!" Nemesis snapped as he looked at Jasper Hook and wanted to reach in and bop him on the head with his own pirate hat. "I have no idea where your brother is. One of those mystical folks took him to someone who can undo whatever you did. I am sure of that!"
Nemesis took a deep breath and looked around at all his new guests. "Selene is resting comfortably, and that is all you need to know for the moment. Now, Mojo, enough of this great desire to take over the world. You and the kid are stuck here for now. And kid, no whining about wanting milk and cookies. Enough is enough!"
The doctor started to pace around in the center of the cell block and winced as he thought of the shenanigans Harley and Omega Red were likely getting into. "Domino can't get back here fast enough. She'll set those two knuckleheads straight!"
As he spun on his heel, Nemesis saw Pixie and Craig Dragotti. "Pardon me for, well, being me. I take it you're here to see Mrs. Dragotti? No going into the cell. I still have no idea what Selene did to bring your missus back to the land of the living. It is not making me feel all warm and fuzzy inside," he added as he waited to see if Craig wanted to talk to Isabella.

Craig smiled at Nemesis. He began to nod. ''I am here to be with my wife. You shouldn't worry. I'm going to stand far from her cell.'' Craig continued to smile.

''I am imprisoned, but my younger brother harmed his betrothed and defeated his family.'' Jasper scowled at Nemesis. ''I remember Jamie Hook not attacking the X-Men. He is still a pirate just like his family.'' Trembling with rage, Jasper removed his pirate hat. He used his hands to grip the hat and tear it apart.
''My younger brother is ripped apart just like my hat.'' Jasper ceased trembling. He began to smile. *At least Mistress Selene is alive and well.*

"OK, as long as you stay far away from her for now," Nemesis said to Craig before seeing the flying whatever-it-was with him. "Now I need that silly book Cecilia wanted me to read. The one with the beasts in it. What is that creature with you, sir?" he asked Craig before looking over toward Isabella's cell. "I'm sure it will keep things on the level with your wife."
"I can mind Cicero if you like, Mr. Dragotti," Pixie said as she turned and saw the kid in the cell. "I'll make sure Cicero is safe."
"Cicero? Where in the world did that critter get a name like Cicero? I like it!" Nemesis said as he looked at the creature.

''Cicero is a wyvern,'' Craig said. He looked back and smiled at Pixie. ''Thanks,'' he said. Craig turned to Cicero. ''Behave for Pixie,'' he said to him. After taking a deep breath, he approached his wife.

Isabella glanced at her ex-spouse. That was when she remembered his kiss causing fire to consume her entire body. The memory vanished before tears formed in her eyes. Isabella turned to Craig. ''Are you here to end my life another time? Perhaps you are going to mewl exactly like the long-haired man with the hook for a hand?''

Tears formed in Craig's eyes as he focused on his wife. ''I never intended to end your life, Isabella. You're alive now. We can be together,'' he said. Craig heard Isabella after she mentioned a long-haired man with a hook for a hand. Confused, he tilted his head to one side.
''A long-haired man with a hook for a hand?'' That was when Craig remembered a sobbing pirate. ''Oh! Captain James Hook!''
His eyes remained on his wife. ''Your mistress is unconscious. Your male pirate companion will probably remain in a cell before he is punished.'' Craig turned to Jasper. He saw the latter's sudden scowl. He faced Isabella again.
''You can live with me, Isabella. We can do anything you desire. Except ending my life!'' Craig viewed Isabella scowling.

Jasper was shocked after he saw a wyvern. He began to smile. *I can capture the wyvern and sell it for a high price* he thought. He turned to Craig and Isabella. His smile remained after Isabella mentioned his younger brother mewling. A scowl replaced it as soon as Craig mentioned him remaining in a cell.
''I won't always be imprisoned!'' Jasper exclaimed. His scowl remained. His body trembled for a few moments. That was when he remembered his midshipman younger brother.
*If Craig and Isabella can get along...* Jasper frowned after he remembered using illusions of his mother and Captain Hook's betrothed to torment him. His shoulders slumped. Jasper faced Nemesis. ''Perhaps my younger brother will forgive me if I'm with him. Perhaps his emotional wounds will heal.''

Craig's eyes widened after he saw Isabella's scowl. Tears formed in them another time. ''Are we always going to be apart?'' Two tears ran down Craig's face. He heard what Jasper said to Nemesis. He turned to Jasper.
''My wife's wounds aren't healing at all.'' Craig scowled at Jasper. ''Unlike you, I didn't wish to torment my loved one. Maybe Captain James Hook will forgive his older brother. Maybe he won't. You are his family.''
Craig glanced at Isabella before tears appeared in his eyes again. He wasn't sure what to do. He turned and walked to Pixie. Craig began to sob near her.
