Disclaimer: I own McKenzie, this is it. Sorry, wish I did own the X-Men.
I'd lend them out.
A/N: Hope you all like this!! I'm hurrying to get to my next exam now.
Jean kept Marie in Logan and Marie's bed, she didn't want to risk moving her. Marie didn't wake for almost two days. She would toss and turn occasionally, crying out, as if in pain. Logan, who was constantly by his wife's side, would at these times go to scream for the red-headed doctor, but find himself unable to budge. Only once Marie's fit had stopped could he call for help.
Charles said the baby must be mutant with either metal manipulation powers or some psychokinetic ability. He was however worried about Marie's condition and her obvious pain during her (as Jean had come to call them) episodes. In the kitchen, Logan was taking his only break in the last thirty-six hours, he needed food. And not those damn peanut butter and jelly sandwiches Kitty and Jubes kept offering him. He needed food, solid food. He needed something to sustain him. These were the words that ran through his head as he pulled out a beer and sat down. Logan opened his drink and ran his fingers through his hair.
"Damn it all. Why can't we just have a normal life?" asked Logan of the beer bottle. It didn't answer, and Logan punished it by downing the offensive liquor in two gulps Marie was still asleep and Logan wanted nothing more then to lay beside her and hold her close. But he couldn't Jean has an IV in her to insure that she was hydrated, and Marie was attached to a heart monitor. He ground the palms of hands into his eyes, trying to block out the image of his wife laying there helpless.
LOGAN! SHE'S AWAKE! SHE'S ASKING FOR YOU! Jean's voice echoed in Logan's head and Logan jumped up, running towards his room, leaving his empty beer bottle on the table. He didn't even notice when he almost plowed 3 students down, and the thought never occurred to him to go AROUND Jubilee lying on the ground in the TV room, he just jumped over her and ran. Taking the stair 3 at a time he made it in record time upstairs and skidded into his room. Marie was sitting up, drinking a glass of water that Jean was supporting. She looked drained, her face was pasty white, and as Logan got closer he could see the dark circles under her eyes. When she saw Logan she smiled and nearly spilled the water on herself. Jean smiled and took the glass, standing so that Logan could sit in his normal spot for the past many hours.
"Hi." Marie's lips were dry, and cracked and when Logan kissed them softly they reminded him nothing of the soft lips he devoured a few nights ago. Marie smiled weakly, "Are you alright? Jean told me about the metal fits." Logan smiled and brushed his nose against hers softly.
"I'm fine. I have been worried sick about you though. I thought I would lose you for a few moments there." Logan could smell Marie's happiness and wanted to hold her forever. He didn't get the chance to hold her though, because he heard screams from the first floor, only seconds before the alarms went off. "What the hell now!?" Logan screamed over the wailing alarm.
Logan left Jean upstairs to watch over Marie and went to see it was wrong. He stopped dead when he saw Magneto standing in the doorway. Beside him was Mystique, who was not looking too happy. Logan glanced back at the hallway where he just came from, willing his wife to be alright. Logan started downstairs, quietly trying to get close enough to take out Magneto, who was currently using his powers to take out several of the students who had tried to attack him. Suddenly Logan couldn't move and he cussed inwardly, Magneto knew he was there.
"Ah, Logan, it's pleasant to see you are doing well. A bit stiff eh?" Smirking at his own joke he looked at Mystique. "Find them." Mystique glared for a second before going, Logan could smell anger and worry on the blue skinned mutant. Logan glanced at the first floor to make sure that the students were fine. He couldn't smell any blood, which was a good thing. Logan growled, where the hell were the others? He was about to start mentally cursing Scott when he saw him, pinned under a pool table, unconscious. Logan searched the room franticly, knowing well that Magneto was watching him do so. "I have already taken care of Charles, he is currently unable to go anywhere, as he is stuck inside Cerebro. But don't worry, I'm not here to kill anyone, just check to see if something is true." Magneto smiled. "Ah, here we are." Logan couldn't turn his head but his nose was filled with the scent of his wife, scared and in pain.
"Well, my dear? Is she?" From Logan's frozen position crouched on the floor, he could see Mystique holding a sick and scared Marie by one arm. Marie was trying hard to be strong, but she could barely hold her head up.
"Yes. She is. I'm not a doctor, so I suggest we take her to one." Logan growled. What could those bastards want with Marie and her child? Logan could smell when McKenzie took over, the fear vanished, replaced with anger.
"You are NOT going to take us anywhere! We are not going to see any doctor either!" She struggled with Mystique's hand around her arm. She's too weak, Logan thought, she's been so sick she's not strong at all. Mystique mysteriously produced a needle from somewhere. Kenzie freaked, and tried to pull away, Mystique slammed her into a wall. Logan was dying trying to move. He was so shocked by Magneto's next action he couldn't do anything.
Magneto grabbed Mystique and shoved her away from Marie "Stop that Mystique." Marie took back over and she collapsed. Magneto caught her and picked her up gently. "I see you were right Mystique, she is pregnant. Would you be kind enough to take the blood?" The mutant nodded and drew blood, obviously being overly careful not to hurt Marie. She must not have wanted another hit from her boss. Magneto gently set Marie down and touched Marie's stomach. "It feels like two magnets being repelled. I think they might have been right Mystique. Come, we are done here." And with that they left, and after a few moments Logan and was able to move. He scooped up her for injuries. Why would they take Marie's blood? Logan could hear Scott moving and yelled for him to get his ass up here. He could also hear the professor coming. Good, Logan thought, standing up with Marie in his arms. Maybe Chuck knows what Magneto wants.
