A/N: I'm so sorry this took so long to get out but today is the first day I've been able to get onto a computer. (Stupid blackout XP) And I'm sorry that it's short but I wanted to at least get this much out. (And thank you everyone for your reviews!! ^_^)

Dear Jacob,
I'm sorry I haven't written to you sooner, but a lot has been going on.
The first day back, after we unpacked and settled in Logan wanted to go to some old mining camp.
"What is this place?" Madison asked looking around at all the abandoned cottages.
Logan looked around, "I'm not quite sure, but I think I've been here before…" His eyes narrowed and Madison watched him walk off a bit then stop and look around again.
"You remembering something?" She asked walking up by his side.
He nodded walking again, after about ten minutes of walking the two came up to a rather run down old log cabin. The door was missing along with a wall and half the roof. Logan cringed at the smell of rotting wood but he went ahead entering what was left of the house.
"Wow… this place must be really old." Madison commented running a hand along an old stove.
Thick black dust rubbed off onto her hand ending up on the leg of her pants where she wiped her hand off.
"I lived here fer awhile." Logan replied picking up a book from the ground only to have it fall into pieces.
The place was extremely old, and when I say 'old' I don't mean as in ten-twenty years old. I mean as in at least a 'Hundred' years old. In one of the log cabins we went into the window, in one of the only walls still standing, was so warped and dirty that you could hardly see out of it.
"Look at this…" Logan quirked an eyebrow as he lifted a rusty ax blade his eyes suddenly glazed over.
"Logan?" Madison waved a hand in front of his face and he blinked returning back to reality, "You okay?"
He nodded dropping the blade back to the ground, "Let's go back." He grunted rubbing his temples like he was getting a headache.
"You're remembering." Rose appeared from out of nowhere standing next to the house a smile on her face.
Logan looked over at her but kept on walking, "Come on darlin'." He called over his shoulder at Madison who was staring transfixed at something on the ground.
"Coming," She called picking up the object she was staring at and ran to catch up with Logan who had stopped and waited for her, "Look what I found." She held up a small golden chain with a heart locket.
Rose was now standing beside Logan eyeing the chain, "You remember it?"
"Yea." Logan whispered.
Madison raised an eyebrow looking confused, "Yea? 'Yea' what?"
As we wandered around the outside of the log cabin I found a gold chain with a heart locket on it. The locket was rusted shut, but still it was really pretty.
I had to show it to Logan.
That's when he started to talk to himself.
"I remember the day I gave you that necklace," He said softly then turned around and walked off muttering under his breath.
Madison furrowed her eyebrows as she looked into Logan's mind suddenly seeing what he was. A middle-aged woman with red hair pulled back into a bun was walking along side of him. Madison broke into a jog catching up to Logan; she stared at the woman who was staring back at her in shock.
"Can you see me?"
Logan looked over at Madison in shock when she nodded.
"I tapped into Logan's mind," She said evenly, "Who are you?"
"I'm Rose."
Rose wasn't the only one who I could see, there was also two James'. It took me awhile to figure out that the younger James was Logan when he was a kid and the older one was… well I think you get the idea.
For some reason I think that this is how Logan's brain is handling a sudden memory burst so he won't go 'crazy' again.
I have to go now it's getting late. I miss you and the others a lot, tell Rogue and the Professor I said 'hi'.
I'll write to you again as soon as I can.
-Love
Madison
