Thanks for the reviews, they cheer me up...)

Storm checked on Rogue one last time, the girl was curled under the duvet, she was wearing one of Scott´s extra pair of specialized glasses to
avoid punching a hole through Bobby´s chest. He had been at her side since they have returned from the hospital. Kitty told Storm all that have
happened, Rogue refused to talk, she was too shocked at the revelation that her powers were back. Bobby tried to help her but she rejected the
hand he offered her. She had not spoken or moved after crawling under her duvet. Storm knew that Rogue needed time, and maybe a good chat
with Logan would help her. The bond between those two continue to surprise her but it was there and it was strong. But for now Logan and
herself had other things of the list of urgent matters.
Storm closed the door to Rogue´s room and walk back to the underground level of the School. Scott was laying on the med-lab stretcher,
sleeping. His face still showed the burn marks from his encounter with the Phoenix. Xavier was checking his vitals.
-"He seems to be fine, How is Rogue?"- Xavier asked
-"Still trying to accept it. Bobby is with her"- Storm touched Scott´s face with tenderness-"I am so happy"
-"Jean couldn´t kill him, that thought fills me with hope"- Xavier was smiling-"She had some control over her powers, that is comforting"
-"Logan killed her, do not tell him that"- Storm brow furrowed thinking on the reaction her x-men fellow would show if he heard that-"He was
sure Jean was still inside, he wanted to save her, I fear I might have forced him to…"
-"You must know by now that forcing Logan to do something he does not want to do is almost impossible. Do not be so hard on yourself, the
situation was difficult, he did what he thought was necessary"- Xavier interrupted her-"I know she was scared of herself"
-"How could you know that?"- Storm looked at him but Hank entered in the lab and the question was left unanswered.
-"Good Lord!"- he gasps at seeing Scott-"He is really alive, when Logan said it I thought he was joking"
-"Hello Hank, nice to see you again"- Xavier looked at his former student
-"Logan wasn´t joking about this either, eh? Professor?"- Hank asked-"Hard to believe it,but you arrive just on time, trouble is brewing, the
cure might not be permanent, some mutants have shown signs of recoring their powers, others are still completely human"
-"Rogue has recovered her powers"- Storm commented
-"Yes, Logan told me. I saw Mystique today, she is still human, but some of the mutants who took the cure have started to ask for a second
dose, there is a rumour circulating that theresmall stack of the cure stored away by Worthington labs"- Hank run his fingers through his blue hair-
"Also, I have been trying to locate Magneto, he escaped after Alcatraz, there is no way to be sure if he has regained his abilities"
-"My telepathy is not as strong as it used to be, this body is useful, but unfortunately it has its shortcomings, I hope this will not be permanent but
right now I am not sure I will be able to use Cerebro"- Xavier said
-"You could still try, Professor. But I am afraidthere is something else. I have found a mutant, someone who can be a great help or a thread"-
Hank added – "Logan ishelping her to find a room, we have to talk, all of us"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wanda liked the room, it was small and cozy, smelled nice too. Logan opened the closet, not knowing what to do, he remember Jean did that,
she showed him around in order to make him feel welcome. He wanted to do the same thing, or at least try.
-"You will be okay here"- Logan turn the light on-"My room is a couple of doors away, on the left"
-"Everyone here is a mutant? All have powers?"- Wanda sat on the bed, her legs were feeling weak after such a long trip-"Even you?"
-"Yes,some are quite powerful, some are just learning how to control their "gifts", they are a bunch of nice people. You will be just fine here"-
Logan wanted to leave, he had too much to do, beside his manners with guests have never been specially refined. But this woman looked so lost
he could not help but feel the need to help her.-"According to some, my power is to be able to annoy and bore at the same time"
-"Control? I admire the mutants who can control themselves. My brother controls his speed without problems, the funny thing is that I am
supposed to be more powerful than him, but I am unable to make my powers do what I want most of the times"- she sighed
Logan was interested in what she was telling him. He leaned closer to her
-"We are specialised in mutants with control issues"- he winked
-"Talking about your personal experience? You cannot control your annoying powers?"- she offered a small smile
-"Kind of, bub"- Logan turned back to the door-"you better get some rest and I should be on my way, tonight is going to be a long night"
-"My brother is angry, he must be furious, but he is not dangerous, he cannot understand humans, they attacked us. He is notreally athread,
please, help him"- she pleaded-"he thinks he is tough but actually he is just as scared as everyone else"
-"Xavier can help him, if he managed to help me, he can help anyone, don´t worry"- Logan saw her relax and closed the door behind him.

A young, slim man was staring at the starry sky with fury in his cold eyes. His hair was platinum white, which created a striking contrast with his
face, he was definitely young, and although his anger clouded his handsome features, he was still a very attractive man. His hand were trembling
in an uncontrolled rage. He wanted revenge, and he needed to find his twin sister .
