I don't own any of the X-men, but man did I wish I did. (Yeah me, and
everyone else.)
He awoke to it. A small ringing in his head, as it had done so many night before. The mutant alarm, his mind immediately recognized. He used his telepathy and found who he was looking for almost instantly. Logan? I'm sorry to wake you my friend, but I need you to meet me at Cerebro. I believe that a trip may be in order, he projected matter of factly. Charles then moved himself into his chair; all the while thinking he somewhat enjoyed this part of his personal mission. He smiled solemnly, excited to help another person, and was out the door.
Logan sat up, and tossed his covers across the bed. Damn it, Chuck, why do you always say things like there's no hurry when there always is, he thought as a smile spread across his unshaven face. "Oh well, it's not like I ever expect to get a full night sleep around here anyway," he said to himself as he scratched his head on the way over to his clothes. He pulled on his shirt as he headed out the door, and walked down the hall to the elevator.
When he arrived at his desired floor Logan saw Xavier heading into Cerebro. Logan followed him onto the bridge in the huge round room. He thought to himself for a second, Chuck never gets tired of his "crystal ball." He then moved on to the question he wanted to ask, "So, is this a new arrival or a threat to the human race?" Xavier replied, "I'm not quite sure yet Logan," in the relaxed tone he always used. Then it happened Cerebro sprang to life, and all the world population was heard muttering. It all then went to red, and Wolverine knew that he was looking for a mutant. Then it focused on the United States of America, next flash went to Missouri, and then to an unconscious body in the woods. Then it all shut off in the next instant. Logan knew what was coming now, the orders. Charles turned to him saying, "His name is Steven, he's 17, and he's just had a very traumatic ordeal as near as I can tell." He started again as soon as they left Cerebro, "I want you to go offer him a safe haven here." Logan always asked this question, due to the fact it was custom, "Who am I dragg'en along with me?" Xavier replied, "I'd like you to take Scott and Jean along, and fill them in on the way there." He then hesitated for a moment and then said, "and don't get into uniform, we don't want to scare the boy anymore than he already is."
Scott rubbed his sleepy eyes, which he always did with care. He didn't want to accidentally pull one open, and put an unwanted hole somewhere. Jean was stretching and yawning in the seat next to him. During the begging of the trip Logan filled them in on what Charles had told him. There had been little conversation since Scott and Jean were tired. Logan didn't mind this on bit. He never liked idol chitchat anyway. As he looked out the front of the X-jet he saw that the sun was just about to come up, and sensor beeped as they were getting close to their appointed target. Hope the kid's still asleep, would make things easier, he thought to himself. Logan searched for the closest clearing he could find and then landed the jet there. They got out as soon as the hatch opened. Logan gave Scott a little more reign over his choices in command as of late. So he asked in a serious tone "What's the move, bub?" Scott smirked for a moment, and then got serious himself. "Well split up, and try to get him to come with us," he ordered. Jean immediately said in a mocking tone, "Yes sir, Mister Summers, sir!" She caught Scott smiling at that statement, winked at him, and headed off into the woods. Scott dwelled on that for a moment before making sure to say, "and Logan be sure to be gentle." Logan looked at him, grunted, and walked off in the woods himself. Scott remembered a time when Logan would have killed him for a comment like that. He then focused on the mission at hand, and went to the woods himself.
Steven awoke in pain, but it was only a headache now so he pushed it aside. Pulling himself up he realized that he was lost. He had no idea where he could be, and the only thing he did know was it was morning. He looked himself over again. He didn't look long as most of him was a dried red color. He felt sick to his stomach almost instantly, and started to run again. He was stopped suddenly when a girl stepped out from behind a tree and he crashed into her. They landed her on her back, and he on top of her. He saw she had red hair, green eyes, and a beautiful face. This realization soon faded as he scrambled off of her, and offered an apologetic, blood covered hand without realizing what he was doing. Jean saw his had, but also knew that he was who they were looking for. So, she took the offered hand, figuring it was the best way to get him to trust her. He helped her up, and looked for something to say. "I'm sorry I ran you over, but I didn't see you," was the first thing he could think to say. Then reality came flooding back to him. He desperately screamed as tears ran down his face, "PLEASE, TELL ME HOW TO GET OUT'TA HERE!!" She studied the frightened teen. He was in covered in blood all over, had bright blue eyes, and semi- long brown hair. He had a hold of her by the shoulders. She wanted to tell him it'd all be ok, because she had been there when her powers first awakened. She felt scared and helpless then. She was about to say that very thing to him when he started screaming again. He shook her as he yelled, "PLEASE, YOU'VE GOT TO TELL ME WHERE I AM!!" Just at that moment they both heard a voice. "TAKE YOUR HANDS OFF HER," Cyclops shouted as he put on his visor. Right then a red beam shot Steven and he crashed into a nearby tree where he fell unconscious.
