Chapter Four: Logan
"I must have hit the poor thing at 60mph, but when we got out of the car to
see where she had gone... she wasn't there. There was some blood by the side
of the road but that was it..." said the woman on the TV telling reporters
what had happened the night before.
Everybody was sitting around the TV, Storm, Scott, the Professor, Hank,
Kert, and Logan, listening for the sound of mutant news. Then a police
officer's face came into view on the screen, "The body of the young woman has
yet to be found... all that has been found is the blood on the side of the
road and the, and the gaurd rail on the side of the road has been destroyed,
though the car did not hit it."
The Professor sat up a little straighter in his chair... everyone knew what
this meant.
Then the anchor returned, and they announced that a house had been broken
into, and a police officer described claw marks in the brick face of the
house.
Before the report, the Professor was rolling away from the TV and toward the
nearest elevator, another mutant causing trouble... tipical. If it isn't
Magnito and his cronies, its some person trying to make a point through
petty theft. And it would only be a matter of time before the police put two
and two together and find that it was a mutant that was hit by the car and
that had broken into that house.
