He finished his bath got out and dried himself with a towel and stood there looking in the mirror
I'm a monster he thought
He looked at his unnaturally muscular body with the claws that shot out of his fist.
He sighed and put on his jeans and took his shirt to his room. He laid in bed un able to sleep when he smelled a rotten stench coming from the kitchen. He snuck down and saw that they had all gone to bed and that there was nothing there so he turned to go upstairs when he was wacked upside the head with a bat and crumbled to the ground
" That'ill teach em" a crackly voice spoke from the corner
"Get all the stuff and hurry we don't want him waking up"! Another voice said from the trio.
They began to rummage through the living room looking for valuable décor. Upturning furniture.
Logan got up dizzy from the bat and ran at the men claws extended slicing at their face.
One of the men howled in pain grasping his face that had a gash from Logan had been and then fell down. On cue the men began to pullout their guns as the family arrived downstairs . As Logan turned to see them the other man shot and hit Logan in the back and then ran out the door with little lute screaming. " Freak"!
The dad ran after them while the mother called the police.
By the time that the police arrived it was already 11:00 and explained about what had happened.
"And what do you think they looked like"? The police question
" A trio of men in their late 20's, and they stole some of our décor from are living room". She explained " and if you want to know more you can ask -," Oh my gosh I forgot"! She panicked as she had completely forgotten about Logan.
" Rick get in here"!," We need to take him to the hospital"! She shouted and started to lift Logan up.
" Ow- Yeah am really fine just give me a minn-" Logan began
"No I saw you get wacked upside the head with a bat, then get shot"! she repeated
Logan didn't protest as they put him into the car and began to drive.
" Jean lay him down and the back seat" the father said
She pushed the back seat all the way down so that he could just lay there until they arrived. They drove on for a while until the mom spoke up.
" You saved are family for the second time, you put your life on the line for us- complete strangers" she said puzzled
" Well I suppose I'm making up my good deeds that I've missed" he snickered
Then realized that he was indeed making up for those… times
They pulled up to the emergence area and the doctors rolled him into the room were the family stood watching as the doctor pulled off his shirt and examined the bullet wound. Logan flinched as the doctor pulled out the bullet that hadn't gone very deep.
"Well you're a very lucky man" said the doctor "The bullet for some reason didn't penetrate your bone and the skin seems to healing quickly".
"Well I am a lucky man" Logan grunted.
" Well I guess I could let you stay here for the night just to make sure that you heal properly" he said as he left the room.
Ugg now I'm staying the night here! He thought
The family came in to see if he was all right and he was laying down asleep.
"I can't believe he took it so calmly, getting attacked by a bear and getting shot in the back. And yet he's totally fine"! The mother exclaimed
"Well-"the daughter said straying away. She was maybe in here late twenties almost the same age as Logan- well actually "Looks" would probably be better considering that they were probable 500 years or so apart.
"Well I guess we better leave him be" the mother said pulling her out with the rest of the family in the hallway.
Logan fell into a deep sleep or rather nightmare. He began to shake and struggle against his invisible enemy, his memories. He relived the moments in the lab. As they turned him into a monster and nearly killed him. They had taken him and turned him into a mutant monster that gave him unique healing factor and Adamantium claws.
He began to relive his horrors as the family came in again. He was breathing heavily and roaring and screaming with rage and fear. He was asleep but they all seemed real he saw that he was in the lab being restrained.
The family called in the doctors to get the restrains. They all tried to hold down Logan as he staggered trying to get up. Now several doctors had arrived trying to hold him down as he dreamt on.
" Hold him down"! Yelled the doctor as they pulled Logan to the ground with five other doctors giving him a drug to calm him down. They finally let go as they thought the drug had taken effect. But they were wrong. He began to shake them off flinging them into the wall as he staggered to his feet growling at the family as his powers took hold. His claws began to slide out , slowly with a hiss of scraping metal he screamed in rage still in his nightmare.
" Let me out"! he roared at them
" Wh-what are you tak-talking about"! the dad studderd staring at his claws
Logan went after them, poor family trying to get away screaming.
" Stop"! The dad yelled again but Logan kept on trying to slice them slicing up walls in the process. Until he cornered jean and attacked her barely missing her by an inch and his claws got stuck in the wall trapping jean's head in-between them. He struggled trying to get his claws unstuck growling at jean .
"Stop it please stop- it"! She screamed and pleaded
He finally got his claws out of the wall and went for jean's face but then stopped short and fell to his knees breathing heavily as jean ran for her family huddled in the corner. He made a screeching sound that sounded like he got shot and then retracted his claws and then fell to his side on the floor whimpering about the nightmare as the doctor came in to check on him
"Okay good news he will-agg"! he stood in shock as he saw the destruction that had happened
" Wh-what happened "! He exclaimed when he saw the five doctors and the panting patient laying on the floor
" He- He is a monster he" the other doctor began to shudder
" We better restrain him again" Said the doctor that had just come in.
" Yes I think that would be good". Whispered the other doctor they rolled him out into another room where he would be monitored.
The family walked with the doctors to the other room where they would discuss the situation.
" He had claws,! Big ones the- they were metal"! said one of the doctors
" Why did he attack us"? " What did we do"? said the mother
"He wasn't awake" said the other doctor "he was having some sort of nightmare that caused him to attack".
"But he had claws"! Said the mother
"Were going to take him home" said the father was going to let him go where we found him"!
The family stormed out and carefully opened the door. He was laying there fidgeting in his restraints. Jean walked carefully to his side and shook him.
He roared to life and swung at jean but stopped short .
" I-I'm so sorry I- I didn't mean to-"! He said
Then he realized his claws were out and sighed and pulled them back in.
"I – I'm sorry you had to see that " He growled
"We will take you back". Said the mom and leaded Logan out the door into the parking lot.
They rode in silence.
