A/N: I don't own x-men, so no suing! Hope you guys enjoy the story and sorry it took so long to get this chapter upJ
Logan sat in his room, everything was where it should be, but something didn't feel right. He smelled her; she had been here recently, some time within the last hour. He walked out into the hallway, and began to make his way to Marie's room, and that's when he smelled it…a hint of fear, and anger, lots of anger and it was coming from Jean's room. He knocked once, but no one answered, he heard muffled voices, Jean's and Marie's and it sounded heated. He tried to open the door but it was locked. He took a step back and rammed the door with his shoulder. The door immediately flew open and he saw Jean using her telekinesis to hold an enraged Marie against the wall. Marie was trying to thrash at Jean, just trying to get a good grip on her, just to get that chance to give Jean the true feeling of pain, like the pain that stung her heart right now, as she saw Logan enter the room. Logan looked confused at both the women, and for a moment, Jean, feeling that the conflict was over, removed the invisible grip on Marie, and Marie took the shot. She lunged at Jean; Logan catching the movement out of the corner of his eye moved in front of Jean. Marie unable to stop herself fell right into Logan, her ungloved hands landing on the exposed skin of his arms where the sleeves of his shirt ended. Before Marie realized what had happened, Logan was shaking, and gasping for breath, the veins in his face and neck were standing out, and he was going into shock. Marie quickly pulled her hands off of Logan and climbed off of him. Jean assimilated what had just happened and was quick to make sure that Marie would not move from her place against the wall.
Marie felt tears prick her eyes as her body went rigid against the wall. Even without the forces holding her to the wall, she wasn't able to move. She watched as Jean quickly levitated Logan and made her way to the med lab. Jubilee and Kitty, like everyone else who was in that wing of the mansion, was out in the hallway trying to figure out what happened. After they saw Jean and an unconscious and spasming Logan, leaving the room, they quickly entered and went to comfort Marie. They were wary to touch her seeing as her gloves were off, but they managed to pull her up, only touching the places covered by her shirt. Marie tried to move away from them, not wanting their comfort right now. She had hurt the only person she'd ever loved; she was a bad person, no one should help a bad person. She stood and pushed past them, leaving them dumbfounded and silent, still clueless as to what had happened. Marie, went to her room and locked the door, she pulled her bag out from under the bed and began rummaging through her dresser drawers for her clothes. She had to get out of here, how could anyone love her after what happened. How could he….
Jean tried her best to stabilize Logan. Marie had held on too long, he was too far gone. The doors to med lab opened and the Professor entered. "What happened?" he asked lightly. "Marie attacked me, Logan tried to stop her, and she used her power against him accidentally." She stopped to take a shaky breath; the last 15 minutes had her nerves completely shot. She looked at the professor with glistening eyes, "Professor I don't think I can save him". They both looked at Logan, and he slowly began to stop shaking. Jean quickly began to administer CPR, hoping that she could at least get him to breath. The professor rolled over to her and placed a hand on her arm; she stopped and looked down at the Professor, "Charles…"
