Sparky Genocide: Yes he will help her out, and it's mainly for Wanda and X23. I mean if you could pick two people with issues I think they would be near the top.

Becca : Well I do know they're a couple in Exiles, but I've never read Exiles (which is ironic since I'm writing an Exiles fic with Uncanny R-Man) or the comics unfortunately so I might not use him. And thanks for the support.

LadyDeathStrike1: Basically yes. She tears off her skin and there's another one underneath depending on what she wants there.

celtcath74: Well Alpha Flight was introduced way back in Enter Mayhem so they might show up, plus look out for SHIELD's new team.

Ruby631: Don't worry I'm using the original members so those two will be in it.

Pyros-gal: Well I hope you read the previous ones, you did see the author's note that said this was 6th in a series right?

Ldypebsaby: Eventually yes those two will hook up. And this is a Wands and X23 chapter.

BlackRoseApocalyps: Yeah he'll have his hands full that's for sure.

jadestar123: Eventually yes they will get together.

The Uncanny R-Man: Don't forget I'm putting in Wanda too as a focus so you know this will get good.

ADJUSTMENTS

CHAPTER 13: ANGER MANAGEMENT

Wanda was going to her room for some piece and quiet. The one problem with living in this place was that there were too many people around to get a moment's peace. It didn't help matters she and Bobby got grounded for the weekend and had to stay at the mansion for several days and had extra training session. It wasn't her fault. Bobby had iced up her only pair of shoes so she hexed him in her anger.

Okay so she knew she had a few issues and all the studying she had to do to catch up to the others so when she went to Bayville High with the others so she would be caught up were getting on her nerves. She hated that. She didn't have to go to school when she was with the Brotherhood, but then again the Brotherhood under Mystique and her father weren't too concerned with their future, just what they could do for them.

She opened the door and walked in on Rogue and Vincent making out on Rogue's bed. "God can't you two do that somewhere else!" Wanda nearly shouted and walked over to her side of the room.

The two broke apart Vince blushing slight but Rogue was just pissed. "Hey it was mah room long before ya showed up!"

"Well excuse me! It's not like I wanted to share a room, especially not with you!" She yelled back.

Vincent held his face in his hands and groaned. He looked up at the two girls. "Could you two please not get into it again? I mean you two were doing so well."

"Shut up!" Both of them said while glaring at him. They continued yelling at each other, the lights started to flicker slightly from Wanda's rage.

"That's it!" Both girls were startled to be suddenly picked up by Vincent and put onto one of the beds.

"Vince what the Hell are ya-"Rogue tried to ask but he cut her off.

"Look." He said sharply. "I know you two got issues, maybe it's because you both feel threatened by the other cause you both use to be the angst ridden Goth girl for your own teams and now your both not as unique as you used to be I don't know, but I'm fed up with all of this fighting, and I'm sure I'm not alone in this."

He looked at the two girls. Rogue was too much in shock at his outburst and stern demeanor to say anything. "Look Wanda you seem like a nice person deep down. You wouldn't have helped us if you weren't. Rogue...I love ya, but this has got to stop. Now I don't care what it takes but you two are going to sit in here and find some way of at least tolerating each other."

"Vince." Rogue said but he placed a finger up in a warning gesture.

"Now look I'm going to go cool off and I suggest you two work this out." He said to them and then stormed out of the room. Both the girls were left just sitting there for a moment.

"This is all your fault!" They both said.

Outside the mansion, Sarah was leaning against a tree. She enjoyed the outdoors and the woods of the Institute were a nice calming place. "Heads up!" A shout sounded and she opened her eyes just in time to see a Frisbee fly into her face.

The others there either winced at seeing her hit in the face or looked a little afraid. Sarah on the other hand was rubbing her face where it had hit her. She looked on the grass and saw what had hit her then looked angrily at the others there. She let out a growl and had a sneer on her face.

Bobby being the one who shouted out the warning stepped forward consciously. "Hey Sarah are you alright?"

She popped out her claws at the boy, he stepped back too quickly and ended up falling on his butt. "Hey it wasn't on purpose, just chill!" He said holding up his hands in defensively.

"Sarah." Said a gruff and commanding voice. She turned to see Logan walking towards them. She put her claws back in. Logan stopped when he was a few feet from her and stared at the girl for a few seconds. He turned to Bobby. "Get going frost bite." He said and Bobby didn't need to be told twice.

Logan looked back at his daughter. He had no clue how to be a real father and this was new territory for him. He could see that she was a little angry and even a little ashamed. "What happened?" He asked her.

"I...I just got angry." She said to him she was also avoiding his gaze.

Logan sighed. "You're going to learn to control your tempter kid."

"I'm trying!" She yelled out, Logan raised an eyebrow. "I'm-I'm trying my best but this is all new to me. All my life people have been trying to take everything away from me leaving me nothing inside, for the longest time all I had was my anger. Now I got all these new emotions I'm letting out and it's confusing, I don't know what's going on anymore." He could see tears swelling in her eyes and his expression softened.

"I'm trying to fit in and be normal but it's hard." Her shoulders slumped and Logan placed a hand on her shoulder. She looked up to man that was now her father.

"Kid I know what it's like. I used to be like you at one point but Xavier helped me to control my anger, and I want to do the same." He smiled at her. "So tell you what in an hour I got some free time and we'll go to the Danger Room and I can show you a way to let out all that anger."

She nodded her head and he smiled down at her. After that she felt like being alone. The mansion being so crowded she searched the grounds. She found a path that led to the water down the cliff face. She could see a small dock there in the distance and figured that was a good place to go. Then she caught a sent from there.

"Isn't there anyplace where I can be alone?" She asked herself, but it was only one sent so she figured he might leave her alone. She walked to the dock and saw Vincent there with a pile of flat stones. She saw him skipping them across the water. She had never seen that done before, and she never knew a stone could do that.

Vincent seemed to noticed her. "Came for a little fresh air?"

She just shrugged. "I just needed to get away for a little while." Vincent nodded his head.

He gestured next to him. "Take a seat I'm just calming myself down here."

She raised her eyebrow. "You need to calm down?" She asked not believing it. He seemed like a good, happy kind of guy to her.

He laughed at her comment. "Well you haven't known me long, I do have a slight temper. I just got fed up with Rogue and Wanda going at it...again." Sarah nodded her head. If there was anyone that had issues that could match the ones she had, then it was those two.

Rogue & Wanda's Room.

Back in their room the two girls were on their respective beds. "Why are we still here?" Wanda asked. "It's not like he'd just pick us up and put us back right?" Rogue was silent and Wanda sat up and looked at her. "Right?"

Rogue shrugged. "He might ah guess. Depends on how much he thinks we need this."

"Great." She muttered. She was tempted to hex him but she was already in trouble for that and she didn't need to have to do something like wash the X-Jet for a week. She had heard of that and some of the other types of punishment that got handed out.

It was different to be in a place that had consequences, unlike the Brotherhood. Plus it felt normal to be in a place where people cared enough to try and set an example and to even punish you if you got out of line. She never had that, and she guessed this was how a real family was supposed to work.

"Do you think he was right about us?" Wanda asked Rogue out of the blue. "About us being 'threatened' by each other?"

Rogue thought about it. "Well...ah will admit that I liked bein' the only Goth. But it's not like we're the same."

"Yeah, I mean you like to wear green and black and I'm more of a red and black." Wanda said offering her own two cents.

"Plus even though both our parents are lying, evil jerks we're not the same." Rogue said crossing her arms.

"You forgot manipulative, power hungry and a total lack of any parental skills." Wanda said to her.

"Oh yeah I forgot about that." Rogue agreed. "Ah mean they said they care about us but what do they do? They lie and manipulate us and then use us." She said angrily.

"Yeah and if we don't do what we're told to do they use telepaths on us." Wanda growled out.

"Tell meh about it!" Rogue said throwing her arms into the air. "Ah mean you of all people know what it's lahke to have someone mess with your head, it's not fun."

"No it isn't." Wanda said darkly remembering her own experiences. There was a moment of silence then. "Are we...bonding?" Wanda asked slowly.

Rogue groaned. "Oh God I think we are...but...it is nice to talk to someone about all of this who understands."

Wanda was silent for a moment. "Yeah...it is." She said looking out the window.

AT THE DOCK

Vincent had been showing Sarah how to skip stones as they talked. "You know you remind me of me when I was younger." Vince told her. Sarah turned with a surprised expression on her face. "I'm serious. After I got out of the lab and then after a year on the streets, when I got to the orphanage I was reclusive, didn't talk much and was unsure about everything."

"So...what happened?" She asked.

"Well I had two friends who never gave up on me." He told her a smile growing on his face at the memories. "It took time but I eventually found out how to fit in...but it took time and I'm sure you can do it. Just be patient and take it slow."

She thought about it all. Him and Logan had gone through the same experience but they both had time to adjust to the outside world. "Sometimes I think it was easier when I was on my own." She says.

Vincent gets a sad look on his face at her comment. "It is easier on your own, you don't have all the complications being in a group have...but I would never go back to it. Once your truly alone in the world and then find people who accept you and want to be around you, you never want to go back to that empty feeling always inside of you."

She thought about it. Being alone out in the wilderness she had had a empty feeling inside of her. Now here even though it was chaotic she didn't have that emptiness anymore. When Logan said he wanted to be her father she had never felt so filled with emotions that she had never felt before. And she liked what she had felt.

She realized that an hour must have passed by then and she might already be late. "Well I got to go...but...thanks." She said. She heard that you should be polite to people at times and saying 'thanks' was appropriate.

He smiled and nodded to her still skipping the stones. Vince took one stone and put a little something extra into it and it skipped more times then Sarah could follow, plus at the speed and distance was impressive.

She decided to run back to the Institute to burn off some energy and to get loosened up. She found Logan by tracking him down by his scent easily enough, even with all the others living here.

She jogged up to him and he got a smirk on his face from seeing her already slightly breathing hard from a little workout. "Well get suited up cause we're heading for the Danger Room." He told her. A small feral smile went on her face, and she raced up to her room to chance.

Logan shook his head. The Danger room was one of the only places were he could let loose and it looked like she must think that too. She really was like him he had to think. Later when they were both suited up and were squared off in the Danger Room they faced each other.

"Alright for me I had to learn to either suppress or at least curve my own anger and you got to learn the same because first off you might hurt someone on the team and you can make a mistake out in the field and an enemy could take advantage of that and you could get seriously hurt." He began.

"But wasn't I wining that fight we had when we first met?" She said with a little smile of triumph.

Logan snorted. "First you had surprise, secondly I wasn't trying to hurt ya, and lastly you ended up crying on me at the end of that." The smile on her face disappeared at that and then it was Logan's turn to smile.

"So if you think you can take me let's go then." Logan said unleashing his claws. "Now your going to learn to at least to control your anger and you'll do it against me." Sarah got a larger smile on her face and unleashed her hand claws.

'Now don't go easy on the girl, she may not have your adamantium skeleton, but she's tough.' Logan thought to himself as they circled each other. 'I just hope she can learn some control or this is going to get painful...or me mostly.'

INSIDE THE MANSION

While Wolverine and X23 were in their Danger Room session, Vincent thought it was time to check in on the girls. He just hoped they had worked out a truce at least. When he knocked then opened the door he was surprised to them already talking, and they weren't shouting or trying to kill each other. In fact in looked like they were actually having a nice time.

"Well I didn't expect this." He said slightly in shock of what he saw. The two girls stopped their conversation when they noticed he had gotten in. "Please tell me you two have found some common ground or something?"

The two girls looked at each other then Rogue spoke up. "Well ah guess we have found a few things we can relate on."

"Yeah, but son't go and expecting us to be great friends or nothing." Wanda told him. "But we did reach an understanding...so...I guess we can't get back at you for this." She muttered.

Rogue walked up and her pleasant face turned serious and slightly pissed. "But if ya ever do somethin' lahke that again ah don't care what memories ah get, ah'll drain ya." She warned him.

"And I'll hex you into the next state." Wanda said just as fiercely. Vincent gulped at the mental images. Not much could scare him in this world but having those two pissed at him...well that would scare any sane person.

"Crystal clear." He said as he backed out of the room.

Ororo was leading a small group of the New Mutants to the Danger Room for a little training exercise. So far it was the newer recruits, Paige, Blink, Dani, Alex, Gale and Amanda. So far since Piotr, Wanda and Gambit showed the most skills and experience they were going to be in a more advanced lesson.

"Shouldn't Sarah be here too?" Paige asked Ororo.

"I tried to find her but I didn't know where she was." Ororo explained. She went to open the door and it suddenly opened by itself. At least that's what she thought when both Logan and Sarah staggered out of the DR room. Both of their clothing was shredded and there were places were there was dried blood too.

"What in the name of the Goddess were you two doing in there?!" Ororo nearly shouted out as she saw them.

"It's alright Ro, we heal real fast." Logan chocked out.

"Mr. Logan are you alright?" Blink asked at the sound of his voice.

"Yeah she just crushed my windpipe and it's still healing." He managed to say. Sarah nodded obviously she too was still healing. "I was just trying to help Sarah to get in touch of her anger and to start learning to control it."

"I see." Ororo said looking at the two of them. "At least tell me you two are going to see Hank just to be sure?"

"Why?" Logan asked her like she just asked a stupid question, she just shook her head as the two shuffled off.

"Please tell me when we got training sessions with him they're not going to be THAT extreme?" Alex said looking at the two of them go off.

NEXT UP CHAPTER 14: THE NEW ENEMIES

Yep they X-Men learn about Emma and Selene and that they might have a new group to contend with.
