Chapter 4 Small reunion
Arriving at the mansion, Remy sighed as he was practically dragged back down to med-lab, sitting on a chair Remy watched as Beast cleaned and sewed the wound shut. He then looked to Lapin who had a phone to his ear, "Well?" he yawned.
"Still ringing…uncle Jean…um hi how are ya?" Lapin asked with a grin.
"Lapin!" Remy growled.
"Alright, alright jeez here…" Lapin smirked as he handed the phone to his cousin.
"What's da matter?" Jean-Luc asked suddenly in a panic.
"Oh nothin' much…Um ya might get a call from Xavier…I kinda accidently blew up a small…really tiny hole in the mansion…" Remy paused for a moment, "That and Julien found me…"
"WHAT?" he yelled, Remy flinched as he took the phone away from his ear to save his hearing, "Ya alright?"
Remy sighed, "Yeah…I'm…OUCH…damn homme…" Remy hissed. Hank gave an apologetic smile, and continued his work. Remy glared at the man, and then put the phone back to his ear.
"Remy?" Jean-Luc called out.
"Julien slashed me across da chest, père I ain't kidding he comes near me again, I will not be held responsible fo my actions…"
"Don' even tink about it…where are ya?"
Remy sighed and rolled his eyes, "At da institute…"
"You stay dere ya hear me. I sent a few men dey should be dere soon…" Jean-Luc barked.
"Yeah Lapin told me…" Remy whispered.
Jean-Luc sighed, "It's just until Julien is brought back to N'Arleans petite…"
Remy smirked, "Aheh…is he gonna be brought back in a cage or a straight jacket?"
Jean-Luc chuckled. "Well at least ya haven't lost ya sense of humor…won't be long petite…"
Remy sighed, "Bettah not cause I'm gonna go insane bein' stuck in dis here mansion for too long…" he yawned suddenly feeling tired, "Père…I'm feelin' a bit tired I'll call ya later okay?"
"Alright…and please for da love of all that's Holy be careful petite…I nearly lost ya once…"
"I know papa…I'll be careful…besides if I die who's gonna keep Lapin out of trouble…" he chuckled.
"Alright talk ta ya later petite…love ya…"
"Love ya too…" Remy whispered as he hung up and looked to Hank, "Are ya done yet?"
"Almost…just need to tape it up…seems you and your father are very close." Hank spoke a small smile on his lips, Remy only quirked an eyebrow at the man and stood when Hank finished, leading his cousin to his room, to get at least a couple hours sleep.
XxXxX
While Remy was being treated by Hank, Logan met up with Charles, "He just pushed her out of his head…"
Charles wasn't too impressed, "I shall have to have a talk with her she knows better than to just invade another's mind like that…" he frowned.
"The kid didn't like it one bit, said he'd break her legs if she tried that again…"
"How does his wound fare?"
"It was a pretty deep cut…"
"We'll have to keep a close eye on him especially if those people that are after him want him dead…" Charles quirked an eye at the man before him.
Logan sighed knowing that look very well, "Oh no please don't ask…I'll gladly look after the kid…" Logan drawled with a small hint of sarcasm. "You people and your looks, jeez it's a wonder you're not ruling the world by now…" Logan grumbled as he stood and made his way downstairs.
Charles gave off a small smile as he watched him leave.
XxXxX
At around midnight, Lapin strolled up to his sleeping cousin and gently shook him, "Remy…" he whispered, Remy groaned as he turned to his side and made himself comfortable again, "Remy…" Lapin shook him a bit harder. Remy grabbed one of the pillows and threw it at the offending person that dared try to wake him, Lapin ducked, grinned and grabbed the pillow throwing it back at Remy who sat up and glared as he was being rudely awakened by his cousin.
"What?" he hissed.
Lapin laughed, "Dey here come on…" he sighed as Remy dropped back down on the bed, grabbing the blankets Lapin pulled them off the bed.
Remy huffed as he slowly stood and put on his boots, "Remind Remy ta hate ya later…"
"What ya don't hate me now?" Lapin smirked.
"Too tired…" Remy yawned as he lazily put on his trench coat and followed his cousin out of the room, "I'll hate ya aftah I've had my coffee…" he grumbled. As they walked down the stairs where they met with Scott, Charles and Logan. Both thieves looked at them curiously as Scott barked out orders to some of the students nearby. "What da hell's goin' on?" Remy mumbled trying to blink the sleep away from his eyes.
"Your pals from the club are out there…" Logan smirked as he went to the door.
Hearing this Remy grumbled, "Whoa…wait a minute…" he yelled out getting everyone's attention he slowly opened the door and stepped outside.
Logan and Scott quickly followed the Cajun, "Ya want me ta paint a bull's eye on ya?" Logan drawled as he sniffed the air, Remy listened and narrowed his eyes a bit.
Scott looked at him oddly, "What are you doing?"
"Remy can see in the dark homme, now shut da hell up…" Remy answered with a smirk then grinned when he recognized several figures roaming around the estate dressed in black. Logan quickly unsheathed his claws, "Hey relax put dose away befo' ya hurt yoself and don' start nothin'" Remy warned as he stepped forward to greet one of the men who was walking towards the group.
Logan kept a close eye on Remy.
"Still getting yaself inta trouble petit frère?" Henri chuckled as he approached his brother, Remy slowly backed off eyeing the eldest LeBeau, Henri looked him over slowly then lunged forward wrapping his arm around Remy's neck, "Still not fast enough petite…" he chuckled as he ruffled Remy's hair.
Seeing the man lunge, Logan and Scott were about to get to Remy but Charles immediately stopped them.
"Ouch…hey quit it Remy's still injured here…" Remy growled as he tried to free himself from his brother's grip.
"Ya injured my ass…ya a tough one…" Henri snickered at the look on his brother's face as he released him then hissed when Remy showed him his new wound, "Damn…ya okay…" he asked seriously, Remy nodded. "Good…" Henri grinned then slapped him upside the head.
"OW…What da hell?"
"Dat's for getting caught…" Henri frowned.
"What I did not wh…" Remy protested.
"Don deny it ya told père clear as day ya got caught by one of da teachers while ya were meeting with Lapin…sound familiar?"
Remy grinned sheepishly as he rubbed the back of his head, and gave a little wave to the men still hiding in the woods as he could here them laughing. "Don' spread it around, damn homme I do have a reputation…" Remy glared at his brother crossing his arms.
Henri smiled as he shook his head and nudged Remy forward, "Don' start arguing wit me and get in that house…"
Charles quirked an eyebrow at the scene as did all the students, noticing this Henri chuckled as he halted, resting an arm on Remy's chest to stop him, Henri looked to Xavier, "Eh…I'm Henri LeBeau…dis little hellraiser be mon petit frère…" he introduced.
"And who are they out there?" Logan asked tilting his head towards the woods nearby.
"Oh père always been ovah protective wit Remy…dey just here ta make sure no one else come ta harm da boy…" he chuckled as he pushed Remy up the steps and into the mansion looking around Henri whistled at how big this place was. "And ya couldn't find a hiding place in here?" he chuckled.
Remy rolled his eyes, "So how many are stayin'?" he drawled.
"Hehe…three men…four women…da usual…" he chuckled.
"Seven people for me, aw ya gotta be kiddin…come on Henri…" Remy growled.
"Non I ain't kiddin'…Remy…" he quirked an eyebrow as he poked his brother where Julien had cut him.
Remy winced and glared at his brother, "Ya a pain in the ass…" he growled.
"Yes I am…you stay here…" Henri warned as he turned and left the mansion.
Scott stepped forward, "Okay…what exactly does your father do?"
Remy sighed as he turned to Scott, Logan smirked as he leaned against the wall. "Exactly what I'd like to know…" he drawled crossing his arms. "I mean he drops off his youngest kid here who had been injured from the start…whom gets chased by some psycho who apparently wants him dead...then sends people who sneak around this place to protect the kid…what exactly does your pops do?"
"Our père be a very generous man who works very hard wit a lot of people, and that's all ya getting from me…" Remy answered with a grin.
"Ahun…right…" Logan chuckled softly.
"What ya don believe me?" Remy pouted.
"Nope…" Logan smirked, "So what happens now?"
"Now I have to stay put or I get grounded when I go back home…" Remy snorted.
"Poor you…" Lapin snickered as he sat down on the couch and made himself comfortable.
"Oh shut-up…" Remy whined as he lied down on the other couch and closed his eyes.
XxXxX
The thieves stayed hidden outside most of the night, Remy and Lapin were fast asleep in the rec room, Xavier, Logan, Storm and Hank where in the kitchen drinking coffee, the other students were sent to their rooms to get some sleep but were to be ready if something was to occur.
Remy groaned as he was suddenly shaken awake, "LeBeau…LeBeau wake up…" the man hissed.
Remy slowly opened his eyes and jerked his head back in surprise, "Mon dieu dis has ta be a nightmare…" Remy whispered.
Vincent quirked an eye in confusion, "Why?"
"Cause ya not a femme…" Remy chuckled softly as he stretched and rubbed the sleep out of his eyes and yawned. "What's da matter?" he asked.
"Come on get up we gotta get out of here…" the thief whispered then looked to Lapin as he was being shaken awake as well.
"Non…laisse moi dormir maman…" (No let me sleep mom…) he groaned then jolted awake as André poked him in the ribs… "Wha…who…" he grumbled looking around then plopped back down on the couch, "Too early…" he groaned.
"Come on…get up…" André spoke pulling on his arm.
"Why?" Lapin grumbled.
"Just got a call from Henri, dey managed ta catch seventeen of Julien's men…thirty are left and dey coming here…" Vincent answered.
"When do you expect them?" Storm asked entering the rec room.
"Could be an hour or couple minutes from now…" the thief answered.
"Seriously how dangerous are these people?" Logan asked crossing his arms.
Vincent looked to André and sighed, "They call demselves the 'ssassins, you figure it out…"
"Are ya kidding me?" Logan grunted.
"We've no time ta give ya a lecture right now we have ta take these young ones out of here…" Vincent answered quickly standing as he waited for Remy to get up.
Xavier eyed Remy as he groggily stood and rubbed the back of his neck, the onyx eyed teen didn't seem too much in a panic for someone who was to be killed by his enemy, "Remy…you don't seem to worried, why is that?" he asked.
Remy looked at Xavier and shrugged, "Why would I be I know how ta defend myself M'sieu, I can get out of any situation…"
"And if you can't?" Logan smirked.
"Den I be screwed…" Remy chuckled as he followed his fellow thieves to the front door.
"Wait…" Charles called out, "You all can be very well protected here…"
Logan leaned against the wall, "Yeah if ya hadn't noticed this place is built up to be like a fort…and everyone is well trained in using their powers…"
Vincent smirked, "Thank-you for the offer M'sieu but we can take care of our own…"
"If that's true then why did Mr.Lebeau send his son here in the first place?"
"The boy needed help with his powers…" Vincent answered plainly.
Charles smiled, "The truth would be very interesting at the moment…"
André smirked as he looked to Vincent and crossed his arms Vincent sighed, "The boy got himself injured, Jean-Luc was a tad worried so he sent him here until he healed up, 'ssassins didn't know of dis place an Remy being a mutant would easily fit right in."
"So you don't have trouble with ya powers?" Logan asked lifting an eyebrow.
"Non…well not really I do have control at da moment…and da thing wit da pillar dat was a fluke, I couldn't stand da pain in my hands and since they were already touching da pillar it was too late I couldn't take back da charge." Remy smirked.
Suddenly the five thieves that were outside rushed in the mansion slamming the doors shut. One of the women glared at the men, "How hard is it ta drag dose two out of dis place…'ssassins are right outside…" she growled.
André was now on the phone with Henri, the X-men were quickly awakened by the Professor and were now tromping downstairs, Logan smirked, "Alright you guys stay in here or sneak out the back or something and we'll confront those pricks and give ya some time…" The thieves all looked at each other with a small grin and followed Remy down a hall.
XxXxX
Logan stepped outside with a handful of mutants and looked at the men as they approached, the one he assumed to be their leader stepped forward, Julien looked around and grinned evilly. "What ya doing hanging around with dose thieves?" he asked a handful of daggers in each hand.
"Thieves?" Rogue asked confused, "What did they steal?" she asked.
"If they return it will you back off?" Scott asked.
"Return!" Julien looked around, "…what da hell are ya talkin' about?" he laughed.
Logan narrowed his eyes, "Wait a minute…the Assassins' guild and the Thieves…damnit" Logan growled on a hunch, he had heard of the guilds in New Orleans, he just never believed that they truly existed, that is until Remy had talked about families feuding, and that guy who had mentioned their name. "What exactly is your involvement with this little affair?"
"I be da leaders son…" Julien admitted proudly, "Don't know why your protectin' dat bastard mutie…" he growled.
Logan smirked, "We happen ta be muties ourselves so if I was you I'd watch my mouth…"
"Why are you after him anyways?" Scott asked curiously.
"I don' need a reason ta kill my enemy…besides he's a joke…he ain't even a real LeBeau, he's not a proper thief…" he smirked wickedly as he glanced behind the X-men then turned to his men, giving them orders.
"Right well…ah the hell with this you don't leave now you're probably gonna get hurt." Logan warned unsheathing his claws.
"I don't doubt dat…" Julien laughed as did his men, "We might get hurt but you'll be dead…"
XxXxX
While they argued the seven thieves led their young charges throughout the mansion, Vincent had a hand on Remy while André pushed Lapin forward, "Ya know dis be a real pain in the ass…" Remy mumbled, he was sick and tired of people worrying over him he could take care of himself for God's sake he'd been doing it since he'd been five years old.
"Quiet little thief…" Vincent warned, as he looked out the back yard, "Merde dey surrounded the place already…" he grumbled, pushing everyone back.
"So let's go out da front and fight wit da others…I so need ta get back at Julien…" Remy smirked evilly.
"Are ya mad?" Vincent hissed slapping Remy upside the head, "You are ta stay away from him…your père's orders…"
Remy groaned rubbing the back of his head, spotting Hank as he arrived, "This way…" he motioned for them to follow, Remy smirked as he and Lapin pushed their way through the crowd, Hank glanced behind him at the young onyx eyed mutant, "You're part of the thieves guild…at your age?"
Remy smirked, "It's da way we were raised homme…"
"What on earth was your father thinking…" Hank sighed as he led them downstairs, towards med-lab.
"What the hell are ya talking about…my père's da guild leader…"
Hank froze and turned to the teen. "You are a thief?"
Remy chuckled, "Ahun…so's Lapin and dese seven…an mon frère an…" he began counting on his fingers.
Hank lifted his claw, "I-I get it…tell me how long has this little feud been going on?"
"Oh quite a while…" Remy chuckled.
"You find something funny in this?"
"All dis started in N'Arleans an now it's moved ta New York…wonder where it gonna go next?" Remy laughed softly, "Eh…forget I said anyting I'm just tired…" he groaned.
"Yes well you can rest when your friends outside are captured or unconscious and on their way back to where they came from…" Hank sighed.
"Oh speakin of they…Remy wants to see how tings are goin' if ya don' mind?"
"Yea we do mind little tief get back here…" Vincent growled as he reached to grab Remy by the back of the coat, but Remy was too quick as he went to the door and peeked out of the window. His eyes widened a bit, "Um…M'sieu bête…ya buddies outside are getting their ass kicked, badly…" Remy winced when he saw Scott fall to the ground his head slammed against the pavement. "Dat had ta hurt…"
"Oh my…" Hank drew a breath threw his teeth as Jean was thrown to the ground, Logan was dodging the knives thrown his way.
Vincent looked out the window and frowned a bit, "We can' just let dem get away wit this…" Lapin drawled.
"Ya père gonna have my head…" Vincent growled. Remy grinned and opened the door rushing outside the thieves following close behind, grabbing his cards he quickly charged them and launched them at Julien and his second in command.
Julien ducked and rolled behind a few cars, peeking out he saw Remy approach an evil grin on his face as he charge three more cards, Julien narrowed his eyes as he bolted away from the car as the cards were thrown his way, the car blew launching in the air and falling back to the ground pieces of it scattering everywhere.
XxXxX
Three vans suddenly crashed through the gate, Thieves and Assassins rushed out to stop the fight, Jean-Luc LeBeau and Marius Boudreaux stepping out taking charge of the situation, Henri looked around hoping to spot his brother.
Marius rushed to his son as he had taken out a gun from behind him and aimed it. A shot rang out Marius quickly grabbed Julien forcing him to drop his weapon and ordered his Assassins to lower their knives, while Jean-Luc stepped before his thieves raising his hand to stop them from attacking.
"You tink dis is gonna stop me…" Julien hissed, swearing revenge Marius frowned and slapped his son upside his head and grabbed him by the shirt pushing him towards one of the vans outside, "Are ya out of ya mind Julien…"
"YA don understand…he kissed Bella…dat freak of a mutant actually…"
"QUIET…" Marius growled, "You dare break a truce ovah a kiss…" he barked releasing his son and pushing him into the arms of a few of his men, "I will deal wit you at home…" he warned as he turned to Jean-Luc, he suddenly frowned as he looked behind the man.
Jean-Luc a bit confused turned, his eyes widened as he stared at Remy who was slowly beginning to gasp for breath taking a step back, "Remy?" Jean-Luc whispered as he rushed forward to his son who was slowly falling backwards, Henri and Vincent quickly grabbed the teen before he fell to the ground, Jean-Luc hovered above him, ripping open his coat and pulling up his shirt his hands quickly putting pressure on Remy's chest as blood leaked out of the hole.
Logan's eyes widened the moment he saw the young Cajun fall to the ground, "HANK…WHERE DA HELL ARE YA?" he yelled out.
"Dat's it Remy slow deep breaths…" Henri instructed his brother.
XxXxX
The thieves stepped forward glaring at the Assassins daring them to try anything, Marius pulled them back telling them all to back off, then stared down his son, "You be lucky Jean-Luc don' have ya head if his boy dies…" he hissed, "Dis ain't happenin' again…you even try and I disown ya…ya understand me?"
"I'm yo son…Ya wouldn't dare…" Julien spoke eyeing his father.
"Yes ya are my son, my flesh and blood…but you've gone too far an because of ya stupidity ya will accept da consequences if dat boy dies…and ya still gonna get punished for trying ta kill him if he lives."
"But père he's our enemy…" Julien protested.
"He's sixteen years old ya idjit…ya wanna be branded a murderer for killin a kid…" Marius seethed, then looked away in disgust.
XxXxX
Hank rushed to the LeBeau's a medical bag in hand, he quickly pulled Jean-Luc's hands away from the wound to inspect it and taking out a compress placed it on the wound, with Jean-Luc's hands pushing on it, "Keep pressure on it…" he instructed looking through his bag again.
"Non non non non non non non, Remy keep ya eyes open, stay awake…" Henri barked, staring at Remy's eyes as they began to roll up, and his breathing hitched a little.
Remy suddenly began gasping, Hank let his hands roam on the boy's chest and side and grimaced as he took out a syringe, "What ya doing, what's wrong?" Jean-Luc asked.
"His lung just collapsed…" Jean-Luc's faced paled as he looked to his son. Logan motioned a few thieves to help him carry the teen to med lab, Hank quickly led the way. "What's his blood type?"
"Eh…O positive…" Jean-Luc answered as he and Henri followed the doctor, Jean-Luc glanced behind him as he watched his men carry his son.
"Any allergies?" Hank pressed as he walked to the door which led to med lab.
"Non…" Jean-Luc frowned as he waited by the door at the lab while Hank worked on the teen, the thieves carrying him quickly backed off to stay beside their leader.
Half an hour later Marius was led down and watched as Jean-Luc had a hand to his mouth biting his thumbnail in trying to calm himself, "How is he Jean-Luc?"
"Don know he still being worked on…ya men?" he asked his eyes still glued on the bed in the other room.
"On dere way home as we speak…"
"Julien?"
"Wit dem…he will be punished Jean-Luc I promise ya dat…" Jean-Luc didn't say a word as he watched Hank move around, "Dis shouldn't have happened…" Marius whispered.
"Jus go Marius…befo' I say sometin I regret later…" Jean-Luc frowned releasing a breath.
Marius bowed his head, rested his hand on the man's shoulder then slowly left the room led by Scott, two of his assassins following close behind.
An hour had passed and Jean-Luc was pacing Hank's lab, Henri was sitting in a chair, four thieves were leaning against the wall or sitting on the floor, Xavier sat in a corner staying silent as he watched the man trying to calm himself. Logan entered and walked to Xavier, "How's he doin?"
Charles sighed as Jean-Luc looked up, "He's faring well for now…"
Twenty minutes later Hank emerged from the room resting his hands in his pockets, "He'll be alright as long as infection doesn't take…he should wake in the morning." He smiled.
Jean-Luc breathed a sigh of relief as he leaned against the wall, bowed his head and rested his hands on his knees, Vincent rested a hand on the man's shoulder giving it a few good pats, Jean-Luc stood, "Can I see 'im?"
Hank smiled, "Of course…this way…" he turned, Henri grinned as he followed the two.
Jean-Luc made his way beside the bed, and leaned down looking his son over, "You my boy are not leavin da house again…" he whispered with a small smirk, "Mon dieu Tante gonna kick my ass…" he groaned.
Henri chuckled as he was now standing at Remy's left. "Lucky little bastard…" he grinned as he grasped his brother's hand giving it a gentle squeeze, then winced as he pulled back Remy's gown revealing the bandage taped to his chest, the skin surrounding it was red and slowly turning a purplish-green. "Ooh…Tante gonna be pissed…" he whispered. He then looked to his father, "Tink we can keep it from her?"
Jean-Luc chuckled softly, "I highly doubt it fiston…"
XxXxX
The next morning Remy woke up feeling a bit sick and grumpy as he slowly opened his eyes to look at his surroundings, not liking it one bit, groaning out he slowly turned his head and began to sit up. "Ey not too fast petite…lie back down…" he heard a voice order and felt a hand gently push him back down.
Remy blinked his eyes a few times he definitely knew this voice, "Papa!" he groaned out.
"How ya feelin?"
"Like I was beaten up…an I tink I gonna be sick…" he moaned out.
"Well that's expected after what you just went through…" Hank grinned as he approached the bed and checked on Remy's wound.
Jean-Luc chuckled as he sat in a chair beside his son, "I saw da mansion…more dan one tiny little hole petite…tink ya might be stayin here for a little while longer…"
"Wan't my fault…Lapin dragged me upstairs then up da roof then down da pillar…"
"Oh sure blame me…" Lapin argued.
"I am blamin' ya weren't ya listenin…" Remy retorted.
Jean-Luc sighed as he sat back and listened to them argue he had missed that sound, Henri snickered as he sat on the bed next to his father and lied down covering his eyes with his right arm, "Music to ya ears père?"
"Absolument…" he grinned.
XxXxX
The next few days Remy was deemed healthy enough to leave med lab, Jean-Luc had had a long talk with Remy as well as Xavier and they agreed that even though Remy had control of his powers he still needed a bit of help, so Remy would continue his schooling at the mansion and with his training it would have to wait until his wounds healed completely. Jean-Luc had enforced that rule upon the teen, if he broke that rule he would have no choice but to send sweet old vicious Tante to get the little thief to cooperate.
"Non, non please I be good I swear…" Remy grinned as he stood facing his father.
"Ya bettah…" Jean-Luc chuckled as he stood from his seat, "Come ere…" he commanded, and hugged his son, "Don' forget ta call her she gon be worried if ya don't…"
"I won't forget…" Remy whispered. Charles, Hank and Logan couldn't help but smile at the little scene.
Leaning back Jean-Luc grasped his son's face and smiled, "Tink ya clever little thief?" he smirked.
Remy gave a cocky grin, "What?"
"Hand it ovah…" Jean-Luc chuckled holding out his hand.
Remy smirked as he handed his father his wallet, "How'd that get there?" he grinned sheepishly rubbing the back of his head.
"Ahun…" he drawled pocketing his wallet, then looked at the laughing men in the corner, "What ya laughing at?" he asked.
"That little punk stole from ya…"
"Yes and I caught im…what I find funny is dat you haven't yet…" Jean-Luc smirked at the confused look on their faces, all three searched their pockets finding their possessions had apparently disappeared, "Don worry he'll return them…" he chuckled, "Now I expect ta see ya'll in N'arleans ta celebrate…"
"Celebrate?" Charles asked.
"Of course…It's guild law…You save my boy…we throw a party…" Jean-Luc grinned as he ruffled his son's hair and whispered something in his ear then turned and left the mansion to return to his home in New Orleans. Remy and the three X-men following stopping at the door to wave good-bye as the car left.
Logan chuckled as he approached the Cajun laying a hand on his shoulder, "You know I'm gonna skewer ya if ya don't return my wallet right?"
Remy looked up, "You'd harm dis poor sweet innocent boy…" he laughed nervously "Ya remember I be wounded non?"
"No but I can make myself forget pretty quick…"
"Ahehe…Remy'll be right back…" he grinned giving the man the cigar he had taken earlier and headed towards his room.
Logan who now had a cigar between his teeth turned to Hank and Charles, "You know he's gonna be a pain in the ass to live with…" he grumbled lighting a match.
"Perhaps…Logan I don't think you should light that…" Charles tried to warn but was too late, as the flame from the match touch the edge of the cigar it blew up.
Logan blinked and slowly took what remained of the cigar out of his mouth and looked at it, clicking his tongue on his teeth he glared at the steps as he threw the cigar on the floor, unsheathing two claws, "Anyone feel like shiskabobbed Cajun tonight?" he grinned rushing up the steps two at a time.
Hank rolled his eyes and looked to Charles who tried very hard to stop himself from laughing, "I think Remy's going to enjoy his stay here…it certainly won't be dull here for very long…" he grinned as he closed the front door and returned to his lab.
"That it won't Hank…" Charles laughed.
The End…
