4 months later

After all of the manticore transgenic stuff blew over things got back to normal or as normal as it was going to get. Max was still living with Original Cindy in their apartment. Joshua was still living in his house. Alec did not live in his apartment anymore. He decided to move in with Joshua to help him cope with Anne's death.

Logan still lived in his high rise apartment. After he distorted all of his computers and eyes only equipment he salvaged what he could which was not a lot but it would be enough for him to start up eyes only again. Logan and Max talked about two times a day on the phone but they had not seen each other on purpose for 4 months.

They had run into each other a couple of times by accident but only said hey to each other and gone on their way. The first time Max saw Logan after the incident at his apartment was two months after it happened. Logan had changed his appearance.

His hair was not spiked anymore it was combed forward and flat. He died his hair a dark red and got contacts that changed his eye color from blue to a greenish blue. She did not recognize him at first but after he yelled her name from across the street she knew exactly who it was.

She stopped and he crossed the street they talked for five minutes then went there separate ways. Logan had improved the exoskeleton so he wore it a lot more. He was actually getting feeling back in his legs but Sam said it would only last a little while because of the transfusion he got from Joshua.

Now that it was 4 month later and he could still feel his legs he went to the doctor to see if he could actually get his legs back. Logan sat in the waiting room. He got called back to talk to Sam Carr. "Hi Logan how are you feeling." Sam asked looking at Logan's medical chart.

"Hi I'm feeling fine I just came to talk to you about the feeling in my legs not going away." Logan said as he sat down on an examination table. "Well it should have gone away because it would do what it did last time. Your body would reject the cells."

Sam said looking at Logan in a surprised expression. He did not know that Logan had changed so much since the last time he saw Logan. "What?" Logan asked as he noticed Sam was looking at him weird. "You have changed a lot since I last saw you."

Sam replied "Yea I had to change my appearance so White would not recognize me." Logan said. "You said that you could still feel your legs?" Sam asked getting back to business. "Yea and you said that it would go away but it didn't." Logan replied.

"We should run some tests and get some x-rays to see what is happening ok?" Sam asked. "Yea ok when?" Logan asked. "We could run them now or when it is good for you. Sam said standing up infront of Logan. "It is fine if do them now but can I call someone first to let them know where I am at in case they call me and I'm not there."

Logan asked as he slide off of the examination table. "Ok I will call you back when we are ready for you." Sam said as he walked out of the room. Logan took out his cell phone from his pocket. He dialed Max's pager number and hoped she would call him back before they called him back for testing.

He waited five minutes and figured she would not call back in time so he left his phone with his other stuff when he went back for testing. About a minute after he left his cell phone rang.
