"No. I need to go, Charles. I ain't gonna stay here by myself!" Logan protested.

"I'm sorry, Logan. This is the only way to guarantee your safety, as well as the rest of the team's. You cannot come." Professor X explained. "This mission is simply too dangerous for you."

It sounded odd to Logan to hear someone tell him that a mission was too dangerous for him. Deep down, though, he knew he was right. The X-Men team, of which he was a member, had gone off to California to recruit several new mutants there. Logan had volunteered to stay back and help the Professor manage the New Recruit team, as he never did enjoy recruiting missions much. While the X-Men were away, a 'problem' arose in Canada. Professor Xavier refused to tell Logan what said 'problem' was, just that he needed to solve it immediately, that he was taking the New Recruit team with him, and that Logan was to stay put at the mansion for his own safety.

"Charles, I understand where yer comin' from, I do." Logan said, trying to reason with the man. "But I have to go with you. If yer goin' ta Canada, then it probably involves me. You know that. I have to come with you. I have to sort out this out."

"No, Logan. I fear for your safety as well as the rest of the team's. You are to stay here. Believe me when I tell you that this is for your own good, as well as ours. Please try to understand."

Logan sighed. He knew the Professor was right. "I understand, Charles. I'll stay here and watch the mansion while you guys are away."

"Good." The Professor turned his chair away, preparing to leave the room, when he stopped and turned back to Logan. "There is one thing, however, that I fear I forgot to mention, Logan."

"What's that?"

"The mansion isn't the only thing you'll be watching."

"What?"
"You will need to take care of Bobby Drake and Sam Guthrie while I am away. They've come down with a pretty bad case of the flu, and Hank has required them to stay here, in bed."

Logan growled. "What?"

"Normally I wouldn't dream of leaving two sick students here while I travel, but this mission is important, and they have you to take care of them. Hank has already written down the instructions for their medication. His notes are on the kitchen counter. I'm sorry, Logan, but this is the only way."
