Well, it's been about two days since Mr. Logan's second disappearance. I would have written sooner, but the Professor and faculty have been making Rouge, Kitty, Jubilee, and I give the accounts of what we saw that night over and over and over. Personally the entire time I set up mental barriers as well as I could. I guess they worked, because every time the Professor looked at me he frowned slightly. I didn't know I could even do something like that. He may think I have something to hide, but I don't. It's just that I don't want the Professor wiping it all from my mind (Yes, he can do that). I probably didn't have anything to worry about, and I'm sure if he heard he'd laugh. Still it just wasn't comfortable for me. That's what's weird. Normally I would have no problems with the Professor searching my mind. But today, I didn't want him within and inch of my thoughts. I don't know maybe it's because I didn't get enough sleep last night, on account of Logan's possibly making another appearance. Anyway, I have to go. Mr. Summers called a meeting for all the older students.
August 20th
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT. I JUST CAN'T BELIVE IT! You know how I told you that Mr. Summers called a meeting for all the older students. Well, it was to ask us to join the X-MEN! Okay, okay, maybe not asking us to join. But he did say we had the choice of being "new recruits". He also gave the blah-blah-blah on how this will only be temporary, and how we aren't going on any missions. We are only to be getting a taste of what it was like to be one of the X-men. He said it may help us in making the decision that was coming up soon. Somebody, I think it was Pryro, said the decision wasn't coming soon enough. Anyway Mr. Summers ignored him and continued with the whole lecture. At one point he accidentally let slip something about Logan's disappearance. That got everyone's attention. I looked back to see if Rouge was okay but she seemed as still as a stone and totally without emotion. It was so weird; you'd think she would be crying her eyes out about this thing. But she didn't so I went back to listening to Mr. Summers.
Mr. Summers, with his back against the wall due to the fact that if we didn't find out from him we would find out eventually explained everything. He told us that the Professor was searching for Logan. He also said that when Logan entered the mansion the Professor got a "lock" on the facet of thoughts he was projecting. He said that the Professor believes for some reason Logan has reverted back to a facet he used during Weapon X. He (the Professor) has been trying to locate Logan, but has not found him yet. Mr. Summers says that can mean only one of two things. Either that Logan has reverted to another facet, or someone is masking where he is. Personally I'm hoping it's the first option. Anyway, Mr. Summers told us the reason we are being "recruited" is because the Professor believes, as Jubes and me proved, we are ready to meet certain challenges from unexpected obstacles. In English that means we are ready. Therefore, Kitty, Jubilee, Rouge, Pyro, Bobby, Colossus, and I are going to "join" the X-men. Mr. Summers told us we are going to have our first danger room session tomorrow.
Now I will admit I am excited. But something about all this still bugs me. I don't know why. Maybe it is because the faculty hasn't told the whole school what happened last night. No, they told them some weak story about a wounded animal that had gotten in and needed to be released. Wounded animal, my foot! Why didn't they just tell them the Truth?! Okay, I guess for the youngest ones it would be difficult to comprehend, but why not the middle aged group. Also why did they just recruit the oldest kids into the X-men? I mean why are they making it so we can use the danger room, but we are not allowed to go on missions? Why does it feel like they are trying to hide something, and they are using this "recruiting" as a way to keep us silent?
