He's not in control anymore. Logan could clearly see that. His mind was on a hiatus from his body. It was like he watching things from outside of everything and there was no feeling even though he should be panicking that he has not control over his body, which is preparing to slaughter the X5 in front of him. There were no feelings, just existence in a calm detached way. So Logan looks in from outside at the scene without a thought in his mind.

Logan narrowed his eyes at Alec. Alec tried to keep from panicking and started thinking frantically of a way to shut Logan down. Time was running out and even though only seconds had passed it was seconds closer to Logan attacking.

'I can't let him make the first move, if he does I'm dead.' Alec thought. So suddenly Alec grabbed the chair and brought down on Logan so hard the entire chair practically shattered. Logan bent beneath the blow but straightened easily.

Alec ran to the door but only got his hand on the doorknob before Logan was next to him. Logan grabbed Alec's hand and bones cracked under the pressure. Alec grimaced but quickly reached behind him and grabbed some pointy steel like art piece and rammed it into Logan's shoulder, who instantly released Alec's hand.

Alec immediately turned around and dove through the same window that Max had when she first met Logan. Hitting the ground he rolled and ran. The dialogue in his head raced, 'If you get caught you're a dead man Alec, now just keep your cool and figure this out.' He could feel Logan's presence gain on him from behind. The head start he got wouldn't last for long.

Just ahead of him Alec spotted two policemen hanging out. Pushing himself harder Alec got there in an instant and before they knew what had happened he had their guns and tazers. He didn't have time to knock them out of the way. Before Alec turned back to face Logan he was turned sharply and rammed against a glass window which cracked under the impact. Logan's hand was around Alec's throat.

"Logan." Alec choked out. "You don't want to do this."

"Sure I do." Logan said coldly.

"Fine have it your way." Alec ground out trying to keep consciousness. He had a gun and a tazer in each hand. Alec closed his eyes summoning all strength. BANG. A bullet tore through Logan's flesh and ploughed through everything that was in its way before exiting.

Alec immediately tazered Logan making him shudder slightly then more as Alec didn't pull back. Soon Logan was convulsing horribly until he loosened his hold on Alec's neck and slide to the ground because of the bullet hole in his thigh and because he was a mass of shudders.

Alec slid to the ground as well gasping for breath. He looked up at the policemen who were unsure what to think about the swift violent show they had just witnessed. Still in a sitting position Alec lifted the gun and pointed at the policemen.

"Run." They exchanged a glance then turned around and made a hasty exit.

CRASH

"Hey boo. What's the dealio you look like your dog died." Original Cindy took a seat next to Max at a table.

"Nothing new just the same ole same ole." Max replied.

"That bad huh?" OC smiled at Max.

"Remember what Herbal said right? It's all good all the time. And besides look at all you've gone through so far, it can only get better." Max nodded her head and OC patted her friends back before leaving to get a pitcher of beer.

Max's cell phone rang.

"Yea."

"Max?" a breathless voice came through the other line.

"Alec?"

"I need your help. I can't tell you right now but come to my place. It's about Logan." Alec hung up.

'I'm not superstitious but next time Cindy says something like that have her knock on wood for God's sake.' Max thought as she grabbed her coat and hightailed it to Alec's.

A/N yay another chapter. I kind of had to down tone Logan's abilities so he didn't kill Alec but there is a reason why he isn't quite the killing machine he is portrayed in some parts. So R&R you know you want to.
