Chapter 6
Back in her room Sarah had just woken up. She looked at the clock. 2:00. She had slept for two hours, straight through lunch. Great, she thought as she got up, I hope they have an early dinner. She grabbed her coat and gloves and walked out the door. Maybe she could persuade Logan to go for a walk with her.
As she reached the main part of the main hall she heard voices coming from outside. Maybe Logan is supervising the children, she thought, she cringed, that was an awful thought. As she walked out on the front steps and saw the children she froze. She saw about fifty children playing in the snow. Some were making snow angles, some where building snowmen, and others were having a snowball fight. A blue man with a tail who looked to be the one in change was right in the middle of the snowball fight. But this is not what shocked Sarah, what shocked her was that most of them were using their powers and the blue man was doing nothing about it, in fact he was using his to.
Why were they using their powers? Sarah thought, What if someone sees them. As she looked around she saw the girl she had met when she first arrived sitting next to a boy. Carefully Sarah walked other to them.
"Hey," the girl said, "how are you doing?"
"Uh, fine." Sarah answered nervously, "I'm Sarah."
"I'm Marie or Rouge, and this is Bobby." She said, "Bobby this is the girl I was telling you about. Logan's wife."
"Logan's wife huh," Bobby said looking at Sarah, "How does that work?"
"How does what work?"
"You know being married to Logan. Him having no memory and all."
"What does his memory have to do with anything? He can't remember his distant past, but what does that have to do with anything. What does Marie's past have to do with her now? What's important is Logan and Marie now."
"I guess." Bobby said.
"Is it always like this?" Sarah asked quietly.
"Like what?" Marie asked.
"Using your powers out in public."
"What public?" Bobby asked looking around.
"You know, where people can see you?"
"Not outside the mansion so much," Marie answered, "but inside and on the grounds it's fine. How else are we to learn to control our powers?"
"I don't know?" Sarah said.
"Look out!" Someone screamed.
Sarah looked up to see a giant snowball, larger than any human could make, heading right for her. She raised her arms and bent her elbows and when she first felt the snow ball touch her hands she used her strength to push it away. The counter force, however, pushed her back but instead of falling back she rose herself up. Marie and Bobby were impressed seeing her hover about a foot off the ground. So was Logan who had seen the whole thing when he had come out to look for her. He started over to her and by the time he got here she had lowed herself back to the ground, but hadn't moved. Bobby and Marie were starting to become concerned. The look on her face suggested she was scared.
"Nice move." Logan said not noticing her face. "Listen, the professor said he wants Jean to examine you after dinner. I just thought I'd give you a heads up." Then looking more closely at her asked. "Are you OK."
"After dinner will be fine, excuse me." Sarah said and ran into the mansion.
"What was all that about?" Logan asked Looking at Bobby and Marie.
"I don't know." Marie answered, "She seemed strange ever since she came out here and saw the children using their powers."
"Maybe she just doesn't like doctors." Bobby said.
"Maybe." Logan said and walked back into the house. What was up with this girl? He thought.
