Chapter 2
Lena woke up early on Saturday, even though she had no classes to teach she still woke up with the sun to train. Ever since the incident at Alcatraz Island Lena had taken the morning hours of her day to train in the danger room. Today was no different she walked out of the danger room to see Logan leaning against the wall clapping.
"Still got it kid" he said joining her in the change room.
Lena opened her locker and started to peel off her tight X-suit. When she pulled it down to her hips Lena turned to Logan
"Are you going to watch me undress? If you are I think you owe me dinner first." She smirked at him.
Logan uncrossed his arms and walked out without making a comment. Knowing she got to him Lena chuckled and continued to get ready for the day. Once she was showered and dressed Lena walked out of the change room then heading into the elevator where Logan was waiting.
"Can you do it now?" he asked impatient
"Let's go outside its beautiful out. I promise as soon as we get outside I will try." Logan visibly relaxed
Once the elevator opened on the ground floor Logan practically dragged Lena outside. He kept pulling on her wrist until they were outside on the small bench near the pond. Logan sat down and stared at her
"We are outside and sitting down. The sun is out and now we can start" Lena smiled
"Anxious?" she asked.
Lena took her hands and she placed them on either side on his head, she looked him dead I the eye and took a breath in.
"Logan it might not work. You could feel me in there but don't freak out and stay calm. If something goes wrong I could get stuck in there or you could get seriously injured. Do you understand Logan?" He gave a stern nod and closed his eyes
Lena relaxed her body and closed her eyes. She breathed in then concentrated on entering Logan's mind. She noticed the resistance and opened her eyes
"Logan you need to trust me and let me in. I can't help if you're blocking me" Logan cracked an eye open
"I'm not trying to resist you. I'm not doing anything" Lena's eyebrows furrowed and she closed her eyes
"Alright clear you're mind, this block could have something to do with why you can't remember anything."
Lena went in again, fighting the block with a little extra force but she needed to be cautious. Lena felt the hole in his memory, in his brain there was a disturbance. She tried filling it in she searched and found what was in his brain. Carefully Lena came out
"Logan I know what's blocking you're memories." Logan looked up at her with wide eyes
"How even Charles couldn't find it." Lena put her hands on her hips
"Again more power here. Anyway it's a bullet, it was lodged into your Temporal Lobe which is known for you're short term memory if that is effected negatively it can interrupt your long term memory which it has. It will take a long time but I can unlock all of those long term memories that you want."
Logan fighting the urge to stand up and scream in joy, he flung his arms around the woman and held tightly
"Thank you Lena." Lena surprised that Logan was showing such emotion she patted him on the back
"It's ok Logan. For the next part I'm going to have to ask you to go down to the med lab. I need to hook you up to monitors and get Hank to observe your health as I go in."
Logan nodded then proceeded to drag her into the mansion. She just let him drag her she knew it was no use to fight him. She waved to Storm as they flew past her. Storm blinking at the sight, ran after the pair. When in the elevator Lena held the door open Storm.
"What's going on?" Storm asked as the doors closed behind her
"I know how to help Logan with his memory problem but I need Hank to help" Lena answered trying to wave Logan's hand from her wrist. Storm gave Logan a stern stare
"Logan let go of Lena's wrist" instantly he let go. Lena looked at her in surprise
"Ok you are coming with us form now on" she said before following Strom out into the metal hall.
As they walked closer to the medical lab they could hear classical music booming form within. When the door opened they saw Hank dancing around with the coat rack while humming to the melody of the music. Lena coughed catching the attention of the resident doctor. He looked over at them and dropped the coat rack.
"Hello. Ah what can I help with?" he folded his hands in front of him
"I need to hook Logan up to the monitors and you to watch him." Hank raised his eyebrows and picked the coat rack up
"What ever for?" he asked
"I can get his memories back." Lena turned to Logan and motioned to the table
"Logan can you lay down on the table. I need to tell you the details about what I'm going to do."
Lena pulled up a stool as he sat down. She looked at him seriously as Hank attached the sensors to his body.
"Logan I know you're excited but this is serious. I could kill you. I'm going to focus on the bullet then hopefully I can disintegrate it. You will probably feel tired after that but if you want I can keep going." Logan nodded
"Do it" Lena nodded her head and stood up while he laid flat on the table.
Again she put her hands on each side of his head and focused on the bullet inside his head. She saw the bullet and carefully took it apart particle by particle. Outside of Logan's head it had been an hour and he was stable. Storm left but checked in every half hour.
Finally Lena finished removing the bullet she sighed and left Logan's mind slowly. As soon as she was out Logan's eyes snapped open. He looked at Lena who was watching his face for any negative signs.
"Did you do it?" he asked still dazed
"Yeah but I don't think we can continue until tomorrow."
"Good idea" he sat up slowly
"Are you feeling alright?" Hank asked taking the sensors off
"Yeah Doc just a headache" Lena nodded her head
"That should be normal. I'm going to Storm's office for our daily date. If you need anything come get me"
Lena left the medical lab a bit drowsy but capable to walk. When Lena walked through the common area she stopped to look out of the window. She watched as a young couple ran around, laughing and smiling. Lena's heart ached as she realized how alone she felt.
Storm saw Lena watching the couple and knew what Lena was feeling. Quietly she walked up behind her and placed a hand on her shoulder. Lena turned her head to look at Storm.
"Come on we have a coffee date."
Storm led the younger woman up the stairs into her office. Both sat down in two of the over stuffed chairs that stood there form when the Professor occupied the office. Storm served the coffee and took a sip
"You should go out more" Storm stated looking at Lena
"What do you mean go out? I get out a lot." Storm shook her head
"Taking the students out to the mall or museum doesn't count. What about going out with a man when was the last time you did that?" Lena took a minute to think then slumped in her chair
"Over 3 years. I know I'm a hermit but look at my track record. Hay! What about you? When was the last time you went out?"
"That's long maybe to long. You don't know this but I have been going out. His name is Garth and he is a human doesn't care about my mutation and we are no longer talking about me." Lena looked shocked
"Why didn't you tell me? Go you, getting a man when doing all of this. I'm proud." Lena took a sip trying to steer the conversation away form her. Storm smiled
"Nice try. I know you've had offers why haven't you taken any of them?" Lena frowned
"Last time I allowed myself to be attracted to anybody I got ditched for his father. The time before that I got ditched for an old man and I was in that relationship for 4 years. I'm cursed, no man can handle me" Storm put her cup on the table
"Well you should know that feeling all alone isn't a good feeling and you deserve to be happy after all you have done." Lena sat up and looked at her elder confused
"What have I done that's so great? I killed my mother that's it." Strom got up angry
"Now you listen here. You have taken this school under your wing I have no clue what we would have done without you. You have made these kids your top priority and you have been thinking about everyone but yourself. You do anything anyone asks of you and you never complain. In my book you're a hero." Storm left the room and slammed the door making Lena wince
"Wait isn't this her room?" Lena shrugged and returned to her room.
