Okay So A few Things to note

1. I've decided That The X-men is a bit messed up since there I things/Characters I wanted

2. Logan History may change Slightly, Due to the era He did not fight in the Wars.

I'm going to keep calling Logan, Barnum Since most of the story is from Phillips View So naturally He wouldn't be calling him Logan

I have Currently Wrote up to chapter 10 and have planned up to 16 So Its not going anywhere any time soon.

If you have any idea You wish to happen Send me a message or Review Saying what you'd like to see and I'll look into it

Enjoy

Barnum sighed leaning back in his chair "I guess I'm not getting out of this" He asked with a sigh shaking his head and He got another drink

"No, I just want to know More about this Life I'm not part of and About you Since There's obviously a lot I don't know about you" Phillip Said crossing his arms

"Where do you want to start"

"Logan?" Phillip asked "Can I assume that's your real name?"

"No, you Can't" Barnum said shaking his head "My Real Name Is James Howlet No one's called me that since I was a child, I changed my Name to Logan when My father died and I learnt about my mutation" Barnum said Loosely He didn't need to explain everything and saying he had killed his father would not be the best start. He Skipped out a lot of his early life Feeling like Phillip didn't need to know that right now.

"I changed my name to Phineas Barnum about 5 years ago When My Wife Died Her Name Was Charity Barnum I told you about her, I took a childhood friends first name and her last name" Barnum explained "I wanted a change from my old life in the hopes I could leave the past behind."

Phillip nodded listening to his story Not needing all the details of the past also thinking between what He needed to know and what he wanted to know "What's Your mutation" He asked He knew About the healing factor but also knew more than that.

Barnum sighed thinking the best way to explain was to show him making sure the bartender was distracted he released his metal claws Showing Phillip them "People Call Me 'The Wolverine'" They Didn't retract as easy since He didn't use them to often while he had been in hiding "Those and the healing are the main things you need to worry about" He said with a frown.

Phillip went to touch the claws Intrigued but Barnum quickly pulled away with a frown "Don't" He said Sternly

"Sorry" Phillip Said deciding it was best not to argue "Why Did you choose to give up that life and live this one" Phillip asked wondering Why he wanted A simpler life

"I'm Not a good Person Phillip and If After everything I say Today you choose to leave I will understand" Barnum said looking into the boy's eyes "I've killed People. About 30 years ago I was made into a weapon Those claws Weren't always metal and that metal Now makes up my entire Skeleton" Barnum stopped talking watching Phillips eyes He could see the fear behind them but could also see the trust and the love that had been there before "I was tired of Fighting, Tired of Hating life, Tired of being a target so I started to try a simpler life but kept the name hoping people wouldn't think Logan wanted to be simple but I met Charity and that life caught Up with me so I Changed my name and That was working for me but Charles When He wants to find someone He will" " Barnum finished allowing Phillip to take everything He had just said in.

Phillip though Nodding taking metal note of the things he needed to know "You've had a lot happen in 40 odd years" He said softly however for some reason didn't think that was his age

"I'm older then I look, I age slower then most" Barnum said simply before frowning shaking his head "You're not planning on leaving are you?." He already knew the answer but wanated to be sure

"While you may scare me I trust you and I'm part of this life now so maybe you can help me or something" Phillip said shaking his head "Charles The guy who was here Is he safe" Phillip asked He was still thinking about the offer he had been Given

"Safe's the wrong word but yes Your protected with him, He owns a School for mutants that allows them develop their powers while also teaching the normal stuff" Barnum explains "and Occasionally Some of them Fight if the war between Humans and Mutants gets bad or when Magneto is involved" Barnum says standing up and paying the bartender "let's go or do you have more questions" He asked

Phillip shook his head "Not for now, Although His Offer Of going with him I think I'm going to take and I want you to come with me. He came here to find you for a reason maybe you should find out what it was" Phillip said as he walked outside While He could tell from Barnum this life wasn't going to be the simplest He had to find out more and he wanted his best friend with him.
