Two days after Xavier had searched Renae's mind, Logan and Jean where
in his office.
"So," Jean said, breaking the uncomfortable silence. "What did you find?"
"she is a very desturbed girl." Xavier began. "She lived on the streets of Equador ever since she was old enough to walk. I found alot of running and screaming. She's never had a real home. She's been going from place to place for a very long time."
"So the kid's a runaway. "Logan commented.
"Oh she's more than that, Logan. In Ecuador, her father died and her mothercould not affored to take care of Renae and her five older brothers. So Reane and two of the brothers became streetrats."
"What the heck is a streetrat?" Logan asked.
"A streetrat is just a term for children who jump on cars for a free ride. As I was saying, one of her brothers was killed by a buss. That was also the day that her telekinetic powers evolved. I said that she's never had a true home. I believe that this place is the best thing for her. I believe Michael is the best thing for her."
"I don't think so chuck." Logan said.
"Why not?" Jean asked as she crossed her arms.
"Michael is just a boy. The girl could be with Apocolipse for all we know. The kid's been threw a rough year and now ain't the time to make him responsable for a girl."
"Logan," Xavier said. "Just because you had a rough start with Renae gives you no right to tell Michael that he can't befriend this young woman. If Theressa were here she would want you to do the same."
"If Theressa were here she would be doing the same thin' I'm tryin' to do. She would allow Michael to hang with Renae but she would keep her eye on them both. I know her better than anyone in this whole darn place!" Logan said as he stomped out of the room.
A few feet away from him, in the living room, he heard Renae talk9ing on a com-link or phone to someone.
"Angel," said a man's voice. "Are you in?"
"Yes." She replied.
"Have you found the boy?"
"Yes."
"Have you done it yet?"
"No. I have to gain his trust."
"Well, hurry! Time is of the escents."
"Yes sir." Renae said as she hung up. Just as she did, Loghan waked in. "Who was that?" He asked as he reached for his paper that he had left on the back of the couch.
"Um....Um....No one. Just a friend I met a while back." Renae said stuttering over her words. "I've....Um....got to...um.... get to.....Um.....I have some stuff I need to do." Renae said as she ran out of the room as fast as she could. Logan walked into the hallway where he ran into Michael. Which Logan thought was weird becuase she had a broken leg and her telekinetic powers weren't avalable.
"Kid, I've got to talk to yah." Logan said
"What's up Logan?"
"It's Renae. I don't want yah around her. shge's on some mission for some guy and she's after you. Not to mention that she was running on her broken leg." Michael folded his arms and glared at Logan evenly.
"Really? Who's she working for? Give me a name and I'll believe you."
"I don't know. I've heard the voice before but I can't remember his name."
"Logan, for the first time in my life I think you're a lier! Jean gave her a splint. It's probably helping so mush that she can run."
"I ain't a lier, Michael. I'm just tellin' you what's best for you"
"Oh yeah! Well, take a hint and stop! Your not my father and your most definatly not my mother!" Michael screamed at Logan. He then ran off to find Renae.
"Reane!" Michael called when he finally found her in the garden. "Michael What's wrong?" Renae asked. "Nothing. Just, Logan thinks that you are out to get me." Michael told her.
Suddenly, Renae's face went blank. Michael was about to go get Jean, when Renae grabbed his hand. Without looking at him Renae said, "I need to know if you will do anything for me?"
"Yes. of course I will." Michael said as he let Renae's hand go.
"Do you trust me?"
"Yes, even when ho one else does."
Renae looked at Michael with glowing red eyes. "Do you believe me hwen I say we need to get out of here?"
"Yes!" Michael said. His eyes were now glowing red.
"Good!" Renae said, eyes still red. "Take my hand, we will leave and shall never return." Michael grabbed Renae's hadn and they took off into the evening sky.
"So," Jean said, breaking the uncomfortable silence. "What did you find?"
"she is a very desturbed girl." Xavier began. "She lived on the streets of Equador ever since she was old enough to walk. I found alot of running and screaming. She's never had a real home. She's been going from place to place for a very long time."
