The sun broke threw the curtains onto a well ruffled but empty bed. Joanna was down in the garage so was Logan as he watched her as she removed the cut brake pipe. "This is going to take some time," she said and saw him nod " you going to stand there all the time?" she asked and she chuckled seeing him nod again. It was now she tossed a wrench " Well make your self useful " she said and smiled as he caught it and moved to kneel next to her.

" Morning Logan, ah Joanna looking beautiful as ever." came a voice from behind her and she shook her head as she knew it to be Scott Summers.

" Mister Summers," she said a slight hiss in her voice that Logan caught and smirked at she didn't look back at him for a moment but then slowly turned to face him." I'm some what busy at the moment but how can I help you." she asked her arms folded across her chest her ratchet in her hand .

" I wondered if you'd like to accompany me for breakfast" he asked and Joanna rolled her eyes and moved back to her bike.

"Logan and I ate already" she said as she tried to remove the broken break pipe. She glanced at Logan and saw him smile. " hey " she said lightly hitting his chest " open end spanner" she said and could not help a smirk as Scott left . " That guy is a pain in my..." Logan shot her a look.

" language, your in a school, besides its not becoming of a young lady to curse like a sailor on shore leave" he said Joanna chuckle " even if he is a pain in the ass." Joanna chuckled again but continued to change the brake pipe. Once done she stood up and wiped her hands, walking over to the tool box she stopped and looked at him over her shoulder.

"Do you...do you ever think about what happened?" she asked placing the dirty rag down on the tool box. Turning she walked over to him.

"Only when I have to." he told her and looked around before he moved closer to her pulling her against him he kissed her again" now stop thinking and let go hunting for that infiltrator" he told her . Joanna nodded and breathed out.

"Just warn me next time when your planning on doing that again." she told him and moved away from him only to be spun back to face him again.

"Warning" he said and she shook her head smiling as she could not believe how comfortable he made her feel being held like she was in his arms. A cough broke her gaze and she looked to see Hank stood in the door way with a grin.

"Well I was about to ask how Joanna was, but I can see she is much better." he said and looked at both of them. Joanna moved out of Logan's arms and over to Hank.

"You tell nobody what you saw." she told him her finger poking his blue furred chest.

" hey none of my business what two grown people get up to." he told her and she nodded and hffed as she left the room she didn't see the smirk Logan gave to hank as he walked over.

"I just wanted to give her the results of the test on that fabric well leather like fabric piece she found" he said and handed Logan the file.

"I'll make sure she gets it" he said and Hank nodded placing his hand on Logan's shoulder " she has a lot of issues Logan, her file reads like yours, blank in places and dark in others, make sure you know what your getting involved with my friend" He saw the look in his eyes and nodded " very well" Logan walked off to find Joanna.

Joanna had found the garden and now stood in it listening to the sounds around her she saw Ororo and walked over. " Hey " she said lightly and moved to sit down with her.

" Ow hi Joanna, good to see you up and about" she said smiling Joanna nodded and sat down close by and chuckled.

"Been up for ages, had to fix the bike, but yes its good to be out of bed" she said and blushed a light pink but said nothing more. " So anything unusual catch your eye." she asked but could see she was meditating again. Joanna stood up and moved away from her her hands deep in her pockets as she walked something lead her down a path that she had never gone down before and she stopped her nose picking up the putrid smell of Sabretooth she had caught several days before.

"Great" she said softly and continued to walk, soon she found herself in a clearing alone and away from the school " okay I can smell you so come out " she said and saw him step out on the other side of the clearing.

"Well well, the sweet Joanna" he said but then sniffed " ah so Logan claimed his prize" he said and walked towards her she moved away from him keeping the same distance away from him.

" I'm noones prize." She told him and continued to move when he ran for her she quickly moved away. " why me, why do you want me?" she asked him landing half crouched in the grass beside a large flat stone what she didn't expect were two strong hands grasping her arms from behind and pulling her back down on to it. " let... me... go" she called out as she then saw Sabretooth loom over her. She then felt the pain of his claws digging into her side and she cried out now cursing leaving the school grounds as she had.

"Good, scream, I want him to come running" he said as she felt the warmth of her own blood run down her side. Cold metal clanged shut around her wrists and she was forced back further so the sun shone over her as she was bent backwards over the stone. Joanna struggled and kicked but the same clunk and coldness wrapped around her ankles. Joanna looked at him and spat in his face.

" Never. "She said her voice strained as he pulled his claws upward widening the cuts he had made as much as she tried not to scream when he removed his claws and ran them down her inner thigh she could not help herself her eyes were blurring as she felt him lick up her neck, Bile rose in her throat. [i]" Xavier, I..I need help" [/i]She thought her eyes were closed she felt something wash over her it entered the cuts and felt like it burned inside her she thrashed on the stone her back grazing from the hard sharp surface as she did. The rock now turning from its normal grey to red with her blood.

Xavier looked up from his desk at the cry he heard in his head. Moving to the door he called for Logan " you need to go find Joanna " he told him the urgency in his voice. Logan quickly moved out side and began his search it was then he heard a deathly ear-piercing cry from deep in the woods.

" All you have to do is just admit that you want to be my plaything. " she heard Sabretooth say but shook her head it was now she felt the shackles open and she slid to the floor only to feel her ankle being grabbed as she was dragged across the clearing.
