A/N- This story is officially done on my desktop. Since Christmas is coming up, I'm going to be posting the final chapters one every other night from now on.

**************************

Logan rolled onto his back. He knew that Max would come and save him, and he knew that she would dispose of his captors swiftly, and efficiently. It was a most amazing show that the three siblings had put on. And the best part was, they did it all for him. Sure, they wanted to dispose of the people responsible for harming their siblings, and flushing them out, but their main focus had been to save him. To bring him home, so that he could be with Max once again. His life may not be perfect, but he was as close to feeling perfection as he possibly could. Putting his arms behind his head, he closed his eyes, reveling in the fact that he was finally in his own bed, away from danger. Unfortunately Max wasn't there, but she would come. He knew that she had to hang with her peeps once in awhile, and it had been awhile since she had seen them. Logan could feel sleep begin to over take him, and he slowly drifted out of consciousness.

Max walked into the bedroom and could see her love sprawled out on the sheets in front of her. She didn't want to wake him, so she quietly treaded into the bathroom, and quickly changed into one of Logan's old t-shirts that she had taken to wearing to bed. As she neared the bed, all thoughts of letting Logan sleep, went out of her head. His scent began to permeate her senses, and all coherent thoughts were quickly lost in a hormonal rage. Slowly creeping towards the bed as if she were stalking her prey, Max kept her full attention on the body that was asleep in front of her. She made her way onto the bed, and crawled so that she was next to him. Looking into his eyes, she could see that he was still asleep, so she decided to wake him up. A wicked grin crossed her face. Max straddled Logan's body, careful not to touch him so that he would not awaken too soon. Once again looking to his face to confirm that he was still asleep, Max began her torment. She moved her head down slightly, and thanking god that Logan had fallen asleep with his shirt off, she moved in for the kill. She parted her lips, and pushed her tongue out, leaving a hot, wet trail down his neck. She paused only to lick in the hollow of his neck. As soon as she did that, she knew that he was awake. His arms seemed to move of their own accord, and Max smiled as they gripped her firmly. She continued to lick down his body, reveling in the sounds of his ragged breathing.

Logan couldn't hold in his desire. Everything was just going perfect between he and Max. Finally, all of his dreams were coming true, and he felt as though he was going to burst. Letting go of his hold on Max, Logan watched her as she licked down his body, clenching all of his muscles so that he could preserve the moment that much longer. Her hair cascaded around his sides, tickling him as she moved. As she neared her destination, Logan took a deep breath.

"Get up!"

Logan immediately snapped out of his blissful dream.

"Get up! Or do you want me to make you?"

The large crack of a but of a gun on the desk in front of him made Logan jump out of his reverie and lean back heavily in the chair that he was in. Logan strained to get his eyes to focus, and when they did, the crystal clear image of Silver leering over him was the first sight he saw. As he looked past him, Logan could see Silver's bodyguard holding the gun that had woken him.

"The tests just came back from the lab on the needle we found in your apartment. The thing I don't get is, you've never liked doing your girls while they were unconscious before, why suddenly with this girl? Was she too rough for your tastes? Was she too strong for the great and powerful Eyes Only?"

Logan just sat bewildered. He'd defend Max if he could, the only thing was, he had no idea what Silver was talking about. What needle? Why would there be a needle in my apartment? Wait a minute. Zack. That's how he got Max out of there. He drugged her, the little bastard. Logan tried hard to keep his face neutral as he spoke. "I have no idea what you're talking about. I really don't know why there was a needle in my apartment."

Silver leaned down right into Logan's face. "I know you're lying."

Logan tilted his head and gave a small smile. He was doing everything in his power to keep himself from shaking. No matter how certain he was that Max would come to save him, something about Silver frightened him to his very core. More than likely, it was the knowledge that Silver held that frightened him. No one knew as much about Logan as Silver did. Logan was even beginning to think that Silver knew more about him than he did himself. "Really? Because I'm not."

"Do you want to know how I know you're lying?"

"Sure, why not. It'll be great for a laugh."

Silver gave a quick smile and then turned away from the desk. As he spoke, he looked out over his broken city. "As soon as I told you about the needle, confusion quickly raced across your face. That tells me that you indeed don't know why that needle was there. However, soon after that, you came to a realization. It was right there on your face. You may have tried to hide it, but emotion belies everyone. You know why that needle was there. And I think I do as well now. You told me everything I need to know. You never used it, nor did your girlfriend. But I'm betting X5-599 used it, and that's why I don't have either of them in my grasp as we speak."

Without realizing it, Logan let out a sigh of relief. They don't have Max. Thank god.

Silver turned around and wagged his finger at Logan. "Ah, ah ah. You see, for all the denying that you know this girl, right there you told me that you do in fact know her, which I already knew, but, you know."

"Wow, that's a lot to figure out. Did you used to be a cop or something?"

Silver's upper lip twitched. "Funny. But you know what? Being funny isn't going to let you live any longer. After I get X5-452 in my grasp, I won't be needing you anymore, and I don't want to give you the chance to do one of your Eyes Only reports on me. I know that even though I know everything about you and can expose you, that won't stop you from making that report, so, I think you can figure out what's going to happen to you."

Logan just looked up at Silver and smiled once again. "I'm glad that you know so much. But I'm confused on something. If you know so much, why do you *need* me so much?"

"See, that's the thing. I know so much about you, that I know X5-452 is going to come to rescue you, and she is going to come right into my grasp. The rest of your little X5 friends may have slipped off the radar screen once again, but your girlfriend is too clouded with emotions to see that she is walking into a trap. And the best part is, she's bringing two of her siblings in with her." Silver smiled and clasped his hands behind his back. "I don't even need the rest of the X series because I've got the best three coming right to me."

Logan glanced beside him on the other side of the glass wall that separated him from the rest of the tower. He could see Agent Joshua rushing by, pausing only to throw a couple of pills down her throat. She almost looked like she was shaking though. Maybe it *is* a neurological condition that she has. But whatever those pills are, they don't look to be working too well. Logan shook his head to get his mind to move onto the next thought. But if Silver has forgotten about the rest of Max's family, that's a good thing. I guess he doesn't know as much as he thinks he does, because if he did, he'd know that there was no way to capture Max and Zack. And if Jondy is third best out of all of them, he doesn't stand a chance. This is actually going to work out after all. Logan sighed, and leaned back in his chair. He stared at Silver's back for awhile, but soon got tired of that, and let his daydreams claim him once more.

*********************************

"Max! Wake up! Max!"

Max quickly jumped out of her latest dream of Logan and took in her surroundings. They were in the car once again, and as her senses began to refocus, she began to remember what they were doing.

"Jeez, I would've thought you of all people would have been hyped for this trip."

Max looked ahead of her to the passenger seat of the car, where Jondy was sitting, turned in her seat, staring right at Max.

"I mean come on, this is your boyfriend that we're going after."

Max couldn't help but laugh when she saw Jondy turn to look at Zack after he had tensed at the word 'boyfriend'. Max knew that Jondy had something on her mind to say, but for once held it back.

"Sorry, I was just dreaming."

Jondy grinned. "Don't I know it. You had that same grin plastered on your face the last time that I caught you sleeping, so somehow I'm thinking that you were dreaming about a certain encounter with a certain person." Jondy bit back a laugh as Max turned away from her to look out the window. Even if you weren't a genetically enhanced being, you would've been able to see the deep crimson shade that spread across Max's face.

Max couldn't hide her blush from Jondy, so she just turned to look out the window. It's kind of scary how much Jondy knows about me, and she hasn't even known me that long. I guess it's the whole sister thing. You can just know what the other is thinking at all times. Max shifted her position a bit. Her ribs were healing, but they were still sore. Hopefully by the time we get to Calgary, these things will have healed. I need to be in top form here. Max starred out the window, and watched the empty fields as they passed by. Occasionally, a car would pass by them, and speed on ahead. As the fields quickly became monotonous, Max drifted off into thought.

After climbing out of the hotel, and making a hasty retreat so that they wouldn't be charged for damage to the room, they immediately climbed into the car to begin their trek to Calgary. Jondy had driven first so that Max and Zack would have time to sleep off some of their injuries, but Zack had soon taken over, claiming that Jondy was driving recklessly, and had refused to give up the wheel ever since. Jondy had argued that she was genetically enhanced and could handle the car at those speeds, but Zack countered with telling her that even if she was genetically enhanced, she wouldn't be able to avoid radar.

After discussing what they should do upon arrival in Calgary, they all decided, that as soon as they found Silver's base of operations, they would just charge in, taking out as many people in the process. That way, Silver's men would never know what hit them. The problem would be finding his base of operations though. Zack never found that out from his 'mole', and so they would have to figure it out on their own.

Max finally looked up to see that they had arrived at the outskirts of town. The three of them had decided earlier that they would start their search in the downtown core, since it was more or less the center of the city, and the hubbub of activity. After another half hour of driving, Zack pulled over to the side of the road, and the three got out to look at the scene displayed in front of them.

"Wow." Jondy looked over the city in awe.

"You said it girl."

Jondy looked at Max. "So, where do you think Silver's base of operations is?"

Max looked up at the tall buildings that were dwarfing the three of them in the street. "You'd think a guy like Silver would want a place where he can oversee everything... he's up there."

Both Jondy and Zack looked skyward towards the building that Max was pointing at. There, looming over the rest of the buildings was none other than the Calgary Tower.

******************************

"Nice choice."

Max looked at Jondy and smiled. "Thanks."

Zack looked up at the Tower again, and then looked down at his two sisters. "Ok, here's the plan."

Jondy stepped up to Zack and looked him right in the eye. "You know what Zack? As smart as you think you are, I think Max should make up the plan on this one." Jondy's lips curled into a mock smile before she turned her attention to Max. "So girl, whaddya think? I'm with whatever you decide here."

Max looked at her sister, and was amazed at the trust Jondy had in her. Jondy had only known her for a short while, but was more than willing to go with a plan made up by Max instead of Zack. Max was stunned, but touched. Snapping back into reality, Max started walking a bit further down the street until they hit one of the main streets that led right to the base of the tower. The three of them were still a fair ways off, so no one in the tower would be able to pick up on them, but they were close enough that with their enhanced sight, they could get a better look of what they were getting themselves into. Max carefully took in her surroundings, and then turned towards her siblings. "Ok guys. It looks like there are three doors. The main one, and then one on either side. You guys swing around from the sides and go in through those doors. I'll take the center one. Once inside, we'll meet up and take the elevator to the top. I'm assuming that's where they've got Logan." Max turned to her sister when she saw that she was about to speak. "And yes Jondy, I'm well aware that assumptions are deadly things, but that's what we're going to have to go on for now, ok?"

Jondy simply nodded. Max had taken the words right out of her mouth, but upon hearing them, she knew that they could only go on assumptions here. Any recon would lose them time and probably get them exposed.

"Now, once we get to the top, there will more than likely be a lot of guards. Take them out. We have to get Logan. Once we do, we hightail it out of there, and never look back. Understood?"

Both Zack and Jondy nodded. Jondy looked at Zack. She could tell that he wasn't impressed with Max making the decisions, but he was going to go along with it. More than likely, he would've come up with a similar plan anyways.

"Ok, Jondy, you go left, and Zack, you take the right side. I'll meet you both inside."

Everyone nodded their understanding of what was going to happen, and then took off in their respective directions. After seeing that her siblings were on their ways, Max stopped for a second. She looked way up into the sky, to the very top of the Tower. "I'm coming Logan." Her voice came out as a whisper that only the wind could hear.
