--------------------------

The scent of blood.

Kids shouldn't have to go through this shit,

No one should really,

But they're kids,

The three of their ages combined isn't half of my age,

Kids shouldn't have to suffer like this either,

I'm really glad i smelt that blood,

Nosing around looking for Saber Tooth,

Scent of blood reached me,

Had to force the door,

Young kid hanging from the ceiling,

Wrapped in razor wire,

Huge cuts down both arms

Zig-zagging,

Dripping blood,

And a phone just out of reach,

Some sick bastard....

And I'll kill him.

When we find out who did it.

------------------------------------

"Hank this is Logan, i need an emergency evacuation, down town, place called the mutant Pitt"

"Understood Logan, casualty?"

"Emergency, best send the x-van,"

"Victim?"

"One kid, aged about 18, lost a lot of blood, you'll need to set up a transfusion in the van"

"Responding, ETA five minutes"


----------------------------------

Those five minutes were long,

I cut her down,

Staunched the bleeding,

Elevated her arms,

All the medical training I've done helped keep her alive,

The cuts went right to the bone,

As i was waiting with her the phone rang,

Some guy, sounded worried,

That guys sitting in the infirmary now,

Looking at the face of one he thought had abandoned him,

A lot of people are waiting for her to wake.

Gumbos there as well.

That made me think,

Of the poor kid was strung up and shes a mutant,

Could the same thing happen to Rogue, or kitty?

Any of the kids could be at risk,

Best include group attacks in the training session this week,

And knife defense,

Just in-case.

---------------------------------------

"Logan?"

"In here Hank, Hurry"

"Oh my..."

"Yeah I know, lots of blood,"

"No I mean oh my, its Dr tear,"

"You KNOW this kid"

"Yes, don't worry about that now, help me find a vein,"

---------------------------------------

We talked as we stabilized her,

Hank didn't even bring Red,

I must have sounded serious on the phone,

Hank told me about the kid as we worked.

He'd met her in some laboratory,

They'd worked on a genetics project.

She was smart,

Not smart enough to save herself though.

When Hank had finished he noticed the answering machine.

Played the messages,

Best we gaged shed been tortured for hours,

Since two o'clockinsh,

The same guy had left messages that increased in worry,

Hank left the kid a message,

Figured he was going out of his mind.

----------------------------------------

"La'more"

"What"

"Thats love.'

"Whatever is she ready to be moved?"

"Yes, lets get her to a medical facility."

"You got that guys number?"

"Yes I'm going to inform him of whats happened, tell him where to find her."

"Hank your too nice sometimes."


--------------------------------------

Waiting for Hank to report on the kids condition,

That was hell,

I didn't even know her,

And I was worried,

Saber Tooth was right,

I'm getting soft,

I like being soft,

It means I have something to care about,

I have a heart,

A knock on the door of the institute got my attention,

It was pouring with rain,

That didn't add to my mood at all,

Kitty was coming down the stairs when i opened the door,

Two of the acolytes on our door step,

Soaked to the bone

And pain in their eyes,

Well the Cajun was wearing sun glasses,

But it was easy to tell they were both crying,

Could smell the salt,

Kitty took one look and went motherly on me,

Pulled them inside,

Got them blankets,

Offered them cocoa,

I'd hate to see what she'd do if Magneto came selling raffle tickets,

Or collecting for a charity.

Chuck would be broke.

Speaking of chuck,

Within four minutes of the acolytes arriving he was in the hall,

Just as bad as kitty,

Offered them dry clothes a warm fire and a hot meal.

How could a sweet girl like that know two acolytes?

Be dating one of them?

the mind boggles.

They wanted to see her,

Straight away.

And thankfully chuck said NO.

The shoulders dropped and a real sadness over came the both of them,

More tears,

Rogue came into the hall,

Saw Gumbo,

Saw Gumbos tears,

Hugged Gumbo,

I'm going to kill that cajun......

-----------------------------------------------

"She's stable, for now, lost a lot of blood,"

"Will she be okay?"

"She should be alright, those wounds will take a long time to heal."

"Hank your a wizard."

"You can go and see her if you like Logan, the boys wont bother you"

"I'll wait till they go,"

"They aren't leaving any time soon, perhaps you should put your differences aside and.."

"No, look I cant be in the same room with those two without the urge to kill them,"

"Well. don't leave it too long, as the one who found her, you have a right to visit her, don't waive it because you cant handle your emotions."


----------------------------------------------

The reason I didn't want to see her,

My emotions,

Couldn't look at that angelic face without wanting to break something,

Gumbos neck for example.

But pacing outside in the hall ain't helping me,

Middle of the night, cant sleep,

In the hall outside the infirmary,

Why?

Thats always a good question,

I need to stop talking to myself,

The doors right there,

And beyond that,

Pain and suffering,

Okay, first step wasn't so bad.

Both of the boys are asleep.

Cute, both in chairs each holding a hand.

I may have been wrong about them.

After eight days i would have thought they'd given up and gone home.

All the girls think they're lovely.

Take them their meals.

Hugs and kisses,

Even my rogue,

Who'd a thought she'd get along with Gumbo.

The kids lying in bed,

Machines around her,

Hair spread around her face like an angel.

Hank took her off life support two days ago,

cClaiming that she was out of the woods.

Still haven't woken up yet though.

---------------------------------------------------

"How long?"

"Patience Logan, things like this take time,"

"You said that three days ago.'

"You haven't even been in to see her."

"I know, I'm waiting."

"They aren't going to leave. Logan GO, talk to her."

"I will when I'm ready"

---------------------------------------------------

I'm ready now,

Here in the room,

Watching her breath

Hanks still got her on oxygen,

But at least shes breathing.

Face is pale,

Dark circles under both eyes,

Arms bandaged up to her arm pits.

Thick bandages,

Lots of gauze to cover the stitching.

The kid has weird eyes.

Both of the open

Looking at me,

Blinking,

A smile turns the corner of her mouth up wards.

I look at her,

Weird eyes,

Slit like a cats,

But it looks like someones swirled it around,

The points of the pupil are off centerer.

And the colors,

Blue, as blue as the ocean,

Deeper that a deep dark stormy sky.

And purple bands around the iris,

The white part blood shot.

She looks me up and down.

-----------------------------------------------

"Nice claws....."

"What?"

"Ah said, nice claws...."

"Huh?"

"X-ray vision,"

"Oh"

"Where am ah?"

"Xavier's School for gifted youngsters"

"Why?'

"You don't remember being attacked?"

"Ah 'member that, what am ah here?"

"I found you, Hank knew you, and here you are."

"Oh, thank you."

"For what?"

"Fahnding me."

"Your welcome. you should probably sleep."

"Yeah, just one question?"

"Whats that?"

"You're Weapon X aren't you?"

----------------------------------------------------

Just like that,

Identified

Like an insect specimen.

She knew me at a glance.

Branded like a project,

Did I ever mention how much i hate scientists.

No matter how young they are.

Or how nice they seem,

I hate them,

Thats another reason I didn't go near her,

I don't want her to get close.

Shes a white coat, she'll poke, prod and ask questions,

Just like Red and Chuck.

Rogue just snuck in,

Happy voices floated out when she opened the door,

The kid must be okay then.

Time for me to disappear for a while.

Back into the shadows and darkness where i belong

Just until she's gone.

When shes gone, I'll come back.

I wont ....

I can't deal with the look in her eyes,

Sympathy,

Compassion,

Tenderness,

She felt sorry for me,

For what they did,

And she doesn't even know me.

-------------------------------------------

Dear Hank,

I've had something come up,

Phone call from an old friend,

Theres a few things I got to do,

No idea when I'll be back.

Keep an eye on the kid for me,

And make sure Rogue stays away from Gumbo.

That is not negotiable,

Logan.

-------------------------------------------

ohhher, which character will i slaughter next? we shall see we shall see dear reviewers, review me and tell me what you thought? did i ruin Logan for you or give him a third dimension. i read the instructions they said just add water. stupid packet mix X-men, everyone knows i can't cook right? right?? until well later....
