Whisper in Your Ear
Part 1 : 1
"There are big voices, and there are little voices. Ya're a big voice ya know."
Logan stared in shock at the sight before him. This couldn't be the same girl he had left here two weeks before. There had to be some mistake. This couldn't be his Marie, the only person he would really give his life to protect. The one he had promised to protect.
Some protector he'd been.
Chuck had asked him to check a few things out, catch up with old contacts. It was only supposed to be a few days - only reason he'd agreed, but there had been... complications.
He hadn't wanted to leave. Lately Marie had been going through some changes, rather painful ones at that. Her mutation had started getting a little screwy at times, giving her awful headaches and some nasty muscle spasms cause of the stress. Chuck explained that it was all being caused by her mutation's further development, but Logan wondered if that wasn't just the sugar-coated version. Something had seemed to be seriously wrong with Marie, and he had left.
Damnit.
Why hadn't he stayed? He'd seen the nearly hidden plea in her eyes, begging him to stay. He was her only anchor to this world, and at times even a few hours away from him could tug at the already frayed edges of her sanity.
And he had been gone for TWO WEEKS.
What the hell had happened in those 14 days that resulted in the shell he saw before him?
What had taken his darling Marie from Light into Shadow?
