X-Jet
"Storm we're almost there. I'm going to land here," Logan said.
"Ok," Storm replied.
The X-Jet landed in the forest. Logan and Storm walked out of the cockpit and saw Kitty and Kurt.
"Half-pint, how'd you get in here?" Logan asked.
"You both have a lot of explaining to do," Storm said.
"But, first we need to rescue the mutant."
Kitty and Kurt stood up.
They all got out of the X-Jet.
"We need to stay together. Don't wonder off," Logan said.
The others did as told. They walked deeper into the forest.
'Somewhere in the forest'
Susaku awoke when he felt someone or something nudging his shoulder. Susaku saw it was the clouded leopard he had saved earlier.
"What's the matter?" Susaku asked.
"What! Strangers in the forest!" Then he sensed their presence.
"Get out of here!" he said in a loud whisper.
The clouded leopard ran off and Susaku looked for a place to hide. He saw a hiding spot that was under a tree and ducked inside. He looked out and saw four people walking along the path to the base. He noticed one of the four looked very different.
He was blue, had fur, three fingers, two toes, and a demon tail. Then the man in the front stopped.
"Logan, what's the matter?" asked a woman with white hair.
"I smell something near here," he said.
"Like why don't we check it out?" said a young girl.
"That's exactly what we're going to do," he replied.
Susaku pulled back into the hiding spot and pulled his knees to his chest. He could feel it, the man was getting closer and so were the others.
Then Susaku started to breathe heavily. He could imagine what these people were feeling curious of what they would find. Then he heard the unsheathing of blades.
'Am I going to die here? It won't matter anyway. I have no family,' Susaku thought.
He was breathing normally once again.
He took in his surroundings and saw a sharp object.
'I won't be killed by someone I don't know. I'll kill myself before than,' Susaku thought.
Susaku grabbed the object and held it to his neck.
He shut his eyes and whispered, "Oh merciful God who art in Heaven, accept my sacrifice and let me die."
He heard the sound of blades being re-sheaved.
Then someone grabbed his wrist.
"No! Let me die!" Susaku yelled trying to pull his wrist away from the hand.
The person would not let go.
"Let go!" Susaku yelled as his wrist started to glow blue.
It shocked the hand that was tightly holding his wrist.
Luckily the hand pulled away. Susaku pulled the knife back to himself, but it was knocked out of his hand.
"Nunaki Shinamori!" Susaku yelled.
"Hey kid, calm down," came a voice.
Susaku noticed it wasn't Nunaki's voice.
He opened his eyes and saw it was the man earlier, along with the white haired woman, the young girl, and the blue guy.
"Who are you people and what do you want from me? Why you people just leave me alone and let me die?" Susaku asked.
"We are the X-Men. Killing yourself isn't the answer," the white haired woman said.
Susaku turned his head away from the four. They had no idea what he had been though. If they did, they would think differently.
"You guys are working for them aren't you," Susaku said.
"No, we work for ourselves. Come with us," the man said.
"Why should I go with you?" Susaku asked.
"You could like stay here or like come with us. It's like your choice, but you can trust us," said the young girl.
'She is concerned about me? Maybe I can trust them, but than again I don't want to stay here,' Susaku thought.
"I'll go with you," Susaku said, "This doesn't mean I trust you guys. If I feel that you are going to take me back to that hell house, then I will attack you."
