Chapter 5
Wolverine's Attack
Logan walked around his room. He knew Jean was alive but he just couldn't figure out how. He decided to go out for a beer. He got his and coat on and walked outside. He had finally got his self a new car and got it from the shop just an hour before. As he got inside the car he noticed a white and red envelope on the passenger side of the car. He sat down and closed the door. He thought it was just a letter from the company so he drove off. For some reason his eyes kept looking over at the letter. Finally he pulled over in a gas station and opened the envelope. There was a letter inside and it wrote:
Dear Logan,
Thank you for a place to stay while I...well you know. I hope you and Morgana are having fun. The lake here is so beautiful, I wish you were here to see it. I hope Morgana is having fun at your job everyday. Sorry I left you but since it looked like you would not ask me to marry you I decided to leave. I'm sorry I left you with the child. In this envelope should be $150.00 for you to spend on Morgana.
I heard about your new project, "Project X!" Sounds fun I guess. Do not let anyone...
The rest was worn to much to read. He looked inside the envelope and like the person said there was $150.00. He looked over the letter and saw a faded name on the letter. The name was Angel. Was her name Angel. He closed his eyes.
A woman smiling at him as she held a baby up for him to see. He saw the baby was his. The woman stood up and kissed him on the lips. She handed him the baby...
he opened his eyes and laughed. Suddenly he started thinking Morgana, my daughter. Impossible. I need to talk to the professor.
He turned his car back on and turned around. He needed to find out the truth. Could she be his daughter? How did the letter get in his car? That he did not wanna know.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Morgana didn't know what the professor wanted with her but all she knew was that the meeting she was about to have was concerning her and Logan. She hadn't spoken to Scott since they left the room. Nightcrawler kept tapping her on the shoulder with his tail. She was really starting to get mad. She so wanted to electric fie him but she couldn't. Finally they reached the door and Scott looked at her and smiled.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Logan finally made it to the mansion. He really had a headache now. He got out of his car and ran to the door. Rogue and Bobby were outside talking. Logan smiled and ran into the house. He needed answers. He ran into the door almost when he reached the door. There were two doors to the professors office.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Professor Xavier paused as he sensed Logan coming down the hall. He knew what Logan wanted, but he had a plan not to tell Logan. He wanted Logan his self to find out.
Logan, " Professor? Professor, we need to talk about Morgana. Is she really my daughter?"
Professor, " Logan, you need to find this out on your own. Right now I am waiting for Morgana to come here so I can find out what happened to her and to..."
Logan, " I am the reason she is like that. It's my fault. She is my daughter and now I am to blame. She will always be 15 because of me. My job was working with..."
Professor, " Logan, relax. Nothing is your fault. Aw here they come!"
Logan, " They?"
Just then the door opened and there stood Scott, Morgana, and Nightcrawler. When Morgana finally looked up she saw Logan. He smiled at her as she ran over to him and she hugged him. She looked at Xavier and smiled. He nodded toward the couch and Morgana took a step back. She didn't want him to know the truth, all those dreams. She wouldn't let him, NO she wouldn't.
Morgana, " No, I will not allow you to read my mind. I don't wanna know about my past. I hate the past. I just wanna be normal again. Not some freak like all of you. Whoever gave me this curse is going to die. I hate being a mutant. I hate my life. I wish I were dead. People hate me just because I am a mutant. I am a normal human I try to tell them but then I get angry and I kill. I kill people!"
Logan, " I know what's that's like. I have the same abilities as you. I have the claws, I have the animal keen senses, I have to urge to kill the same as you. People hate me but I still don't do things to change it!"
Professor, " Morgana, Every one here has an ability. Some are like Storms. Others are curses like Scott's. Still you have all these powers and more. You are the ultimate mutant. No one can ever change that. Now please lay down. I wanna see if the blood tests were right. Okay?"
Morgana looked away for a second then nodded. She guessed it could also get rid of the memories of the pain. Xavier wheeled his chair over to where her head was and put his hands on the sides of her head as he closed his eyes.
A dark room. Men surrounding her. She cuts the straps and starts to stab the workers. She turns around as her nails go in. A man grabs her arm. The girl hugged tight to the guy. It was cold and silent. A coat wrapped around her shoulders. Snow, falling around her cold then turned warm. The guys face clears up and its Logan. He held on tight as the snow covered them. Stinging feeling...
Morgana jerked away screaming. Logan touched her arm to calm her down but her pain floods into him. Logan starts to yell as his skin opens up. Scott grabbed Morgana by the shirt and Morgana gets knocked out. Peter ran in to see what the commotion was about.
Peter, " Professor, I heard screaming. What's going on?"
Professor, " Peter, do me a favor. Take Morgana to her room. Stay with her. Logan, are you okay?"
Logan, " yea...I'll come later and tuck her in Peter. okay?"
Peter, " Logan, you need to get some rest. I'll take care of her I promise."
Logan, " Thanks Peter!"
Peter, " No problem."
As Peter took Morgana to bed Logan decided to get some fresh air. He stumbled on the way out. How did she transfer all her pain to him. It almost made him feel dead. When he got to the fountain he froze. As he looked around he sensed someone watching. He shook his head when he saw it was nothing but his imagination. He walked back to the door and had one quick look around. As he walked the halls he pasted Morgana's bedroom. He looked inside and saw Peter taking care of her like he said he would. Logan stood there and thought about it. One day he still will lose his daughter. Even though she doesn't grow older. He kept walking toward his room. Every step getting harder to take. Finally he reached his room and fell on his bed. As he closed his eyes he heard a faint gasp from another room. He didn't think much of it as the dreams flashed in.
A cabin in the woods. A little girl grabbing on to his leg yelling daddy. He smiled and picked her up as he tickled her with his other hand.
flash
A 10 year old girl crying, she is hugging him. He had hit her and she was forgiving him. He smiled and hugged her back.
Logan woke up and looked around. In the chair next to him was Morgana. She was crying for some reason. Logan sat up and turned the lights on as Morgana sat beside him. He hugged her. Logan got up and cut the main lights on and saw her claws were out and had blood all over them. He walked over to her and looked her in the eyes. Something had happened to someone. Someone got in the way of her dreams.
Logan, " What happened?"
Morgana, " I didn't mean to do it. I was having a bad dream and he was standing over me. He scared me and my claws popped out into his chest."
Logan, " Who?"
Morgana, " Peter. I didn't mean to..."
Logan, " Where is he right now?"
Morgana, "With Scott and the professor!"
Logan, " okay. At least he is getting patched up. Morgana, look at me. I had the same incident with Rogue. When we both first came here. One night she couldn't sleep so she came into my room. I had a bad dream, she was standing over me and I gave her the claws. Look at her now. She's fine."
Morgana, " I know. Will Peter survive?"
Logan, " Yea. Yea he will"
Morgana walked over to Logan and looked him in the eyes. She closed her eyes and put her hands on his head. Logan looked at her hands and sighed. A memory they shared came through.
A woman on a bed in labor. A man standing over her holding her hand as a doctor gets the woman ready. A baby girl pops out and is silent but awake. The baby didn't cry one tear or scream. The woman held the man close as the doctor cleaned the baby off. The woman whispered a name as the doctor handed the baby to the man and woman. The man smiled as the baby grabbed a piece of his beard. The woman laughed...
Morgana slowly pulled her hands down and looked Logan in the eyes.
Morgana, " Your my dad. I'm sorry about what I said earlier."
Logan, " Don't worry about it, my daughter."
They both laid down on the bed and fell asleep for more dreams. Good dreams.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Scott walked back and forth as Storm checked Peters heart monitor. It had been 7 hours since the incident. Morgana walked in with her head down and Logan following behind her. Before Scott left he hugged Morgana and shook his head. Which meant it didn't look good. Nightcrawler came in and Logan left for more medicine. Morgana noticed that Nightcrawler fell back to sleep so she walked over to where Peter laid. She looked at his bare chest covered in little plugs to watch his heart. She touched Peter's face and rubbed down his neck and down his chest. She stopped and rubbed back up and stopped at his lips. She looked around to make sure there were no cameras and took her nails out. As she stuck one of the nails in his chest she watched his heart monitor. His heart rate went up and he started waking up. She pulled her nail out and pulled it back in. She leaned over and kissed him quickly on the lips. Before she could pull away Peter grabbed her neck and kissed back. She pulled away and smiled at him.
Morgana, " KURT, WAKE UP. Peter just woke up. Go tell the others."
Kurt, " Okay. Call me Nightcrawler okay."
Peter, " Morgana, why did you bring me back?"
Morgana, " I guess because I sorta care about you and I kinda like you. I don't want you to die."
Peter, " You kinda like me? Really"
Morgana, "Yea."
As Scott and the others ran in or wheeled in Peter pulled Morgana's head down and they kissed. Scott put his finger to his lips and faced the others. When Morgana finally pulled away she turned around and her cheeks turned bright red.
Scott, " It seems Morgana has finally fallen in love with one of the X-MEN crew members. What do you say Logan?"
Logan, " I need to talk to you Morgana. I found something you need to know. I found a letter from your mom."
Morgana, " My mom...a letter? What do you mean Logan? I don't need to know about my mom now that I know I have a father."
Logan, " Nothing. I'll tell you tomorrow morning."
As Logan said this Morgana pasted out. Peter and Cyclops caught her. They took her to the hospital section and hooked her up to the heart monitor. As her heart rate fell Peter stayed with her and tried to wake her up.
Logan on the other hand was outside running in the park. Logan was so confused. How was he to tell Morgana the truth. Logan decided to sit down for a while until he saw three men. They were walking toward him. Logan felt his claws pop out. The men at this time had pulled out guns and pointed at him. The fight was on. Logan had to get to Morgana before it was too late.
Man #1, " Hey you. Your from that...mutant...Aren't you?"
Logan, " Maybe. Actually my daughter is, not me."
Man #2, " You live there" he motioned with his hand at Logan's claws, "Your a mutant!"
Logan, " No. I mean yes, I am a mutant but if you don't hurt me I won't hurt you. Deal?"
Man #3, "Ummm, No. No deal!"
Logan, " I will give you six reasons to not get in my way."
The three men started shooting as Logan started toward him. He stopped and crouched in place.
Logan, " One, two, three, four, five, six!"
As he counted his claws popped in and out. He lunged toward them as they began to run. He was able to stab two of the three of them but one got away. He was running toward the mansion. He had to get there, and fast.
