PLEASE READ:
This story/scene was written Jan 2008, when I had just seen the first six preview pages for Marvel's new title "X-Force". After seeing these two pages (link posted below), I thought up a nice little scene between Laura and Logan, which could have easily fit in nicely. Enjoy.

PLEASE LOOK AT THESE PAGES BEFORE READING:(spoilers for X-Force #1)

Let me set the scene: It's a dark, night. Stars twinkle in the sky. We are mid way, up on a hill, at the edge of a woodland area. Laura sits leaning up against a tree, an assortment of guns/weapons lay next to her. She's looking though a pair of binoculars. In the distance we see what she sees. A Military base.

At that moment a figure comes into view, to Laura left, and sits down next to her. It's Logan.

Laura: (still looking though the binoculars) They've been in there seven minutes and forty three seconds. They should be out soon. If not, we should go in after them. They may be have been unable to complete the mission.
Logan: Rahne and Jimmy know what they're doin' (there's a few moments of silence). Listen, Laura. Did yer hear anythin' I said before?
Laura: (puts down the binoculars, turns to face Logan) Yes. I heard all of it.
Logan: Good. Cause I meant it. I don' want yer here. On this team. I wan' yer t'go back.
Laura: Go back? To where? The schools gone. My friends have gone. I have nothing go "go back" to. At least when I'm here, I'm with my family. I'm with you.
Logan: (lets out a frustrated breath) I get that yer wanna be with yer family. But, kid, I'm not a good family. Trust me on that.
Laura: (sees something in the distance) Not good, is better than not at all. (picks up binoculars, looks through, its Rahne and James heading towards them). Here they come.
Logan: Laura, I- (but he's interrupted by her getting up heading to meet the others. Logan gives any angry sigh, the conversation over. For now) Kids... (he to gets up and heads out to meet Rahne and James).

I am planning to write more X-23 with other cast scenes/stories, so please keep checking back for updates. Each story/scene will be added in a new "chapter". Thanks for reading.
