Chapter 1 (I do not own the X-men, but I own the new group of mutants going into this. Hope you enjoy. Logan's POV.)
I left and all hell breaks loss, I mean I leave this kids with Storm and the others and look what's happen. The news never tells the full truth tho.
BREAKING NEWS!
A GROUP OF MUTANTS ATTACKED SHOPPING MALL!
WHERE ARE THESE "X-MEN" THAT ARE MEANT TO KEEP THEM IN CHECK? ARE THEY THE ONES BEHIDE IT? WE'LL HAVE MORE LATER!
"THAT'S BULLSHIT!"
"LOGAN! Please there are children around." Danielle waste no time with telling me off about language or manners.
"My bad Dani."
I heard footsteps coming from the kitchen, she's on her way. I saw her poke her head around the looking at me with a smile.
"So what's this bullshit I heard?" she had a playful smile on her face.
"A group of mutants attacked a shopping mall. They think the x-men are behind it." Her smile dropped, I hated her not smiling or happy.
"Okay now that's bullshit. But Logan it has been a while since you were there maybe things are different." She looked down she couldn't meet my eyes. She was disappointed in herself for saying that.
"Dani, how about we all go for a trip she what's going on up there?" her smile returned, then dropped again.
"Logan I would but I have to watch the kids until he comes back." Dani is a great aunt since her brother left.
"Dani they have a mother remember."
Next minute three little kids came rushing in, giggling, and running around the room. Dani looked down at them, since her brother left she had taken care of them. They'd go to their mother's for two weeks a month.
"Let's go."
"There's my girl."
Time had gone so quick, the sun was already setting, we'd been on the road for about two hours. God dammit I wanted to turn back around, but something was up and I owe it to those kids to do something. Dani stayed quiet since we got in the car, she kept staring outside the car, like she was going to see anything out here.
"Dani?"
"Yes?"
"What's up?"
"I don't understand." Dani had turned from the window and was looking at me full on with her chocolate brown eyes that sparkled.
"You've been staring out the window and haven't said jackshit. Are you okay?"
" Logan. I'm worried that is all. No need to set up an alarm."
"Worried about what exactly?"
"What happens if these kids are doing it and that what you remember is gone? And when someone comes from your past what are you going to do?" She wasn't worried, she was scared.
Dani was a child when I met her, her father had helped me when I need a place to hide. Dani's family had always been there for me since then. Then the day Dani's father died her mother had blamed me for not being there when he needed me. He was gunned down on the way home for work. When her mother passed I tried to come back into their lives.
I found out it was not only her mother who had died but also Daniella her twin, her parents had a weird thing with their kid's names. There was Dan, Daniel, Danny, Daniella, Danielle, and Diana. I had no idea why they named their kids all starting with D, I would hate the mail Mr D. Conant or Miss D. Conant. Davina and Dexter had died the same day and month but a year apart. Dex died on 8th August 1999 and Davina 2000.
I had come to feel like a father to her, like Rogue, I missed that kid.
"Dani trust me here, these kids, the x-men, they aren't behind this. As much as they annoy the fuck out of me, they took me in, I owe it to them to help or something like that. And if someone comes back they better have a good reason but they'd would probably be dead or hell old." I spoke the truth my past had been taken from me, but it didn't matter as much, it did once.
"You're a good man Logan." Dani smiled at me then turned to the window, oddly enough I let her be. I had tried to get my memories back and failed terrible, then I tried to be mortal or whatever Yashida claimed and that ended horrible.
We arrived four hours later, Dani had fallen asleep not long after our chat and had slept most of the way. Dani grabbed the bags after I said I'd grab them. We slowly walked up to the door, Dani was hiding behind me but she's way to stubborn to admit that.
Knock. Knock.
Footsteps.
Quiet.
Then the door opened, I was waiting to see storm or the others but no, a little girl. She looked up at me and she started to smile. She was no older than nine, cloudy grey eyes with little bags under her eyes
"Hello, I'm Logan, this Danielle. What's your name?"
"H….hi, m-my name is Colette." She started to blush a little.
"It's nice to meet you kid. Can we come it?"
"I'm not meant to open the front door." She started backing away.
"No Colette, its okay. I'm a friend, I lived here a while ago."
"How do I know you're not lying?"
"Rogue. Is she here?"
"Yes. She's my friend!" She started jumping up and down.
"Go get her. She'll tell you."
"Okay. I'll be back. Don't move." Before I had a chance to say anything she was gone.
