CH. 3
Logan set his empty bowl on the coffee table and leaned back, groaning in pain. Victor took his bowl and his own and took it into the kitchen. He put the dishes in the sink and went back to the living room. He sat next to his brother. He didn't look good at all. He was still very pale. He could tell he wasn't healing yet.
"Jimmy, do ya know what happened?"
"I remember bein' with the team and then Magneto used his power to control me," he said. "That's all I remember."
"Yer a lot lighter than ya were before," Victor said. "Like ya lost a hundred pounds."
"Dunno how that happened."
Victor had an idea how his little brother ended up in the road with bad wounds and was a lot lighter. He looked at Logan.
"Jimmy, I think I know why yer wounded and are a lot lighter now. Extract yer claws."
Logan raised a hand, looking at it and extracted his claws. Some blood came out with his bone claws. Logan gapped. Bone claws. They were bone. Victor wasn't surprised. He always knew he had bone claws and he knew he was right. Magento ripped out the metal on Logan's bones.
"How. . .?"
"Magneto," Victor said. "That's why yer wounded and light. He ripped out the adamantium on yer bones."
Logan still stared at the claws. "They're bone. They weren't implanted."
Victor nodded. "The claws are part of your skeletal structure."
"You knew?"
"Always knew. From the time we were kids."
Logan nodded, retracting the claws and put a hand to his head. It was now pounding. Like someone was bashing a hammer against his skull. He winced a little. Victor got up and brought back a couple Advil and a glass of water. He handed them to him. Logan looked at the pills in one hand and the glass of water in his other.
"How do I take the pills?"
"Ain't ya ever taken meds before?"
Logan shook his head slowly.
"Ya put 'em in yer mouth and swallow them with the water," Victor said.
Logan did as told and frowned. "It ain't workin'."
"It don't work right away," Victor shook his head. "Ya got ta give it a little bit. Half an hour the pain'll go away."
Logan nodded and laid on the couch with an arm over his eyes. He soon fell asleep. Victor pulled the blankets back over Logan and went into his room to also sleep.
Okay. That's all I had for this chapter. Not sure what to do next. Ideas are very welcome. Please review.
