6 years had passed since the birth of Logan and Marie's child.

As usual, everything seemed perfect. Supposedly they had the perfect family, friends, and everything.

Sadly, happiness doesn't last forever.

Marie had just dropped, Sarah, their daughter off at Uncle Scott's room to play with him, leaving Marie to a break which was good due to the awful headache that she had.

Jean hadn't been there since she was told by Kurt that she was helping Ororo in the garden.

So, Marie thought that she'd look for Logan. He was in the garage working with the wood and tools helping Remy to fix some old chair and tables.

Turning the corner, Marie made her way towards the garage door. Slowly she began to open it and then an awful scene came upon her.

No. This can't be happening, she told herself.

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING WITH MY HUSBAND!"

Earlier…

Logan had been working hard to fix an uneven table and fix the paint coating. Remy had gone off to get them a drink, so he seized the opportunity to clean up some of the tools that were lying on the workbench.

He heard the door open and said, "Hey Rem? Did you get me that Molson that I asked you for?"

"No. It's just me Logan," said Jean, "Ororo asked for an extra shovel so I came to get one."

As she approached his area, his ears perked and he sniffed the air.

Something was terribly wrong.

Jean approached closer and Logan pretended to mind his business.

She was just behind him when he struck her and with his claws shred part of the shirt she was wearing. There was three large claw marks made by him from many years ago.

"Mystique," he growled angrily.

"My, my, Logan," Mystique said changing back to her normal form, "Where's your manners? That's no way to greet someone. Especially your mother-in-law."

"You leave Marie out of this."

"Geessh. Can a girl cut a break? I didn't come here to talk about her."

"Really? Then why did you come here?"

"You."

"Me? No thank you."

"Maybe this can help," she said closing in on him and giving him a hard and passionate kiss.

Logan was struggling to let go and failed to hear the sound of the door opening.

Unfortunately, Mystique did and shifted back to her Jean form.

Then it was too late…

"I ASKED YOU WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH MY HUSBAND!" an angry Marie yelled.

She felt tears sting in his eyes.

How could he? Marie thought to herself, How could he cheat on me?

Mystique changed back to her natural form.

"Tsk-tsk girl," she said, "That's no way for you to talk to you mother."

"Shut up, you-" Logan started.

"What?" Mystique said.

"Enough!" Marie yelled, "I can't take this…Logan-I-I-can't believe you did this to me."

"But-I," Logan started.

"That's it!" Marie said as she left the room slamming the door behind her.

"Why don't you got the fuck out of our lives and stay and stay out!" He said pushing her out of the door that led outside.

"Very well," she said.

Logan slammed the door and ran his hand over his hair.

"Crap! What did I do?"

How could he have hurt Marie like that?

Outside Mystique smiled and laughed evilly.

"Surely, I'll stay out of your lives but just not yet."
