Logan stood alone in the empty room. He let out a sigh that froze in the
air. I was 1:00 AM, but he couldn't sleep. He had finally got up and walked
down to her classroom, thinking about the day's events.
It was all his fault; that he knew. There was only one way to foil their plan, but Logan couldn't do it. He felt so vulnerable, so weak. He wasn't able to protect the one woman he truly cared about.
When he walked into this room earlier, he saw himself cornering Marie. Of course it wasn't actually himself that was advancing seductively on her. It was Mystique. Mystique played her.
But why did Mystique choose to be him? Why not be Bobby? He is her fiancé, after all.
Logan walked up to the open file cabinet drawer. He wasn't about to go through her things, but he was curious as to what were in those files. He looked at the little tabs on the folders. The drawer was full of files about ancient Rome.
He still couldn't get over the fact that she was a teacher. Before he had left she always would talk about that museum stuff. He had to admit that he was pretty interested in all of that history talk, especially when it came to the old war tactics and weaponry. He was even tempted to pick up a book from time to time, but never did. He made a mental note to visit the library later.
He pushed the drawer in and walked to the freshly boarded up part of the wall. What could they possibly want Marie for? The possibilities were endless and it was no use to worry himself sick over something he had no control of-yet.
He needed to get to sleep. Logan would be worthless if he wasn't in top physical shape.
He will get her back.
That was for sure.
*~*~*
The van ride was way longer than she had remembered. Bumpier too. She couldn't sleep. Her mind was buzzing and her eyes were out of focus. Perhaps she was sleeping with her eyes open?
Rogue snapped out of her peaceful state when she fell forward on top of Toad.
They had arrived.
Her body screamed at the sudden movement. How long had she been sitting like that? When Mystique opened the slider door Rogue realized that the sky was dark. It was almost noon when she was taken. She suddenly had the sick feeling that she wasn't in New York anymore.
She stiffly got out of the can and stumbled forgetting she was shackled. Toad quickly got a hold of her before she felt. She felt like thanking him, but her mouth had forgotten how to work.
Rogue took in her surroundings. She was in a garage. It was small, but the open garage door let a small driveway spill into a dirt path. There were no other buildings around. Only trees.
Everything in the garage was metal. Automatic sliding doors opened as they walked trough. They walked through a maze of hallways all made of the same metal as the garaged was. Toad held her arm to steady her while Mystique led the way. Toad's touch almost felt reassuring.
More sliding doors opened to reveal a large metal room. It looked to be two stories tall. In it was a metal desk and behind it was-she gasped-Him.
The man of her nightmares stood up in her presence and said in a booming voice,
"Welcome to Ohio."
A/N: I finally updated. Go me. I haven't yet seen X2, but I will later today. I am so freaking excited. Any way. As I read over my whole fic today I realized that I made some pretty big type-o's. Keep in mind that I usually type these up at night, but that should be no excuse. I tried to fix some of the big ones today, but I don't have time to fix them all. I apologize for the ones that already existed and the ones that will pop up in the chapters to come. Sorry.
Let me know about the sequel thing. Right now, I am pretty sure I want to do it. Let me know what you think. Tootles!!
