God It's Another Logan

Professor Xavier heard mental screams of shock come from the infirmary. It confused the old man at first, but after a few more moments of listening he understood the incessant ranting.
"Mortimer, Storm, stay here, something's wrong in the infirmary." Said the old man as he turned his wheelchair to leave.
"Is she okay?" Asked Mort in a frightened tone.
"She's fine," Said Xavier. "It's Hank and Logan I'm worried about." He left Toad twitching in anticipation.
"Mortimer," Said Storm trying not to let Ellis Island get in the way of her comforting instincts. "If the Professor says she's okay then she's okay."
She put a comforting arm around him and held him as a mother might hold her sad son.
The Professor wheels down the hallway toward the infirmary. The mental screams have ceased leaving a shocked mental blankness.
This cannot be good. The Professor thought to himself as he entered the infirmary.
Hank and Logan were still staring at the screen with a blank look on their faces. He looked over at WildCat who was still unconscious, but a prehensile cat-like tail was twitching occasionally. This intrigued the Professor momentarily then he turned his attention to the computer screen. A look of total and utter shock ran across his face.
Upstairs Mort, Storm, Jean, and Scott heard the Professor call them to the infirmary using telepathy.
Everyone goes down to the infirmary. Toad runs over to an unconscious WildCat paying no attention to the screen. Everyone's stares are now fixated on the computer.
"Mortimer," Said Storm. "You may want to look at this."
Mort looked at the screen, he had enough consciousness to yell.
"Wot in the bloody fuck is that!" His mouth gaped open as he stared down at the screen.
His scream was so loud that it woke WildCat up.
"What in th' sam hell is goin' on?" She said groggily as her now golden- yellow cat eyes searched the room.
"Logan!" Said Mort running to her he wanted to tell her who her real parents were, but Professor Xavier stopped him saying that she may not be able to handle it right now.
"Mort," She asked quietly. "What's goin' on?"
"I'll tell ya' later love." He said as he stroked her now red hair. "Hey do ya' think that you cin stand up?"
"Yeah," She said rubbing her head. "What are they looking at?"
"Nothing we should see prob'ly c'mon love," He helps her up. "Hey why don't you an' I go down t' th' kitchen and get somethin' t' eat?"
"Sure," She looks at her hands. "But I should really put some clothes on, and my fur may scare the younger kids."
"Clothes," Said Toad as he gave her the elevator eyes. "You really don't have to I mean naked's. good wif me, but ya' fur won't scare th' little ones, now they may want t' pet you like a dog, but I don't think they'll be scared o' ya'."
"Which would you perfer naked with or without fur?" She asked raising a blue eyebrow.
Toad grins devilishly.
"With fur." Interjected Hank momentarily.
"Kill joy." She said as she and Toad walked off.
Later on the staff discuss the matters of reveiling Logan's heritage to her in a manner that may not cause rage.
"Any suggestion?" Asked the Professor quietly.
"We could just tell her." Said Wolverine solemnly.
"We could drop hints here and there," Said Jean quietly. "You know to ease the shock."
"That could work," Said Beast. "I wonder is Mystiqe knows that her daughter is still alive?"
"Who knows," Said Scott. "For all we know Logan may know who her real parents are already."
"She doesn't," Said the Professor carefully. "But I have a feeling that she suspects that the people she called mother and father for so long weren't really her mother and father."
"I don't think she suspects," Said Storm seriously. "I think she knows."
Upstairs Mort and Logan are hanging upside down off of the balcony making out. She is holding them up with her tail.
"Mmm," Said Mort as he kissed her neck. "What else cin ya' do?"
"This." She said as she switched from supporting them with her tail to her feet.
"Cool." Said Mort as he resumed kissing her neck.
Suddenly another person joins them in their aerial escapades.
"Knock it off." Said Hank as he hang upside down frowning at the affectionate couple.
"Don't you ever go away?" Asked WildCat angrily.
"No, now go to bed," Said Hank realizing that may be those weren't the best choice of words. "Your own beds."
The couple got back on solid ground and mutter their good nights (mornings more like it) to the staff, kissed each other good night and went to bed.
At noon the next day Mort and Logan dragged themselves into the lunch room. Still in their pajamas they got a tray and sat themselves next to Kurt and Wolverine.
"You look like shit kid." Said Wolverine to WildCat.
"You would too if you were having nightmares all fucking night long." She said staring at her try as if trying to figure out what should happen next.
"Try eating it." Said Kurt playfully waving her fork in her face.
"Yeah that would help wouldn't it." She said grabbing the fork.
"Why don't I go sneak ya' some coffee?" Said Logan as he waited for the sleepy couple to answer.
All they did was moan.
"I think that is a ja." Said Kurt.
Logan leaves to get coffee when he runs into Hank.
"So has she been told?" Asked Hank.
"I'm gettin' around to it now piss off she and frog boy some coffee," Said Wolverine as he moved toward the kitchen. "And if you're so damned worried that she won't find out you tell her your own damn self."
Hank walked over to the table that the young couple were sitting at only to find Peter and Kurt trying to wake them up. Logan ran to them with two cups of black coffee in his hands and tried desperatly to force the warm liquid down their throats. Hank just walked off leaving the news for another more appropriate time.
Professor Xavier wheels up to the podium in the front of the cafeteria.
"Ladies and gentlemen I am happy to announce that our annual fall festival is only three weeks away," Said the Professor smiling. "Which means we can do our annual student/staff assigned costume contest. Now for all of the new comers we take the name of four couples, two couples will be staff members and the other two couples will be students, and we put them in a nice neat little line. Well we put the names of famous hero and villian couples in a bowl and one person from each couple will draw a name from the bowl and who ever they pull out is who they must be for Halloween, so now that the rules are clear may we have some volunteers?"
Thinking quickly Peter and Kurt shoved Mort and WildCat on stage. Pete grabbed Jubilee and stood with her on stage. Scott wouldn't let WildCat show him up like that so he grabbed Jean and stormed on stage. Storm and Hank walked shyly on stage as they grinned and giggled.
"Good," Said the Professor smiling widely. "Now that we have our couples we can begin chosing who will be who. We have two villian couples Magneto and Mystique and Dr. Evil and Frau Frobissina and two hero couples Superman and Lois Lane, and last but certainly not least Austin Powers and Foxy Cleopatra. Who will pick first?"
