Chapter 7: Good Bye Old Friend
As things settled down around the mantion, Charles had woken up.
Everyone was excited to hear he had gotten better, it was Logan Angel was worried about though.
He had sacrificed himself to save Rogue, it took about a couple of days for his healing factor to come through.
As Angel walked threw the door with a six pack, she saw Jean checking him over when he woke.
Neither one noticed Angel's presence as she slunk into a dark corner.
"That was a brave thing you did." Jean whispers.
Logan asked Jean if it had worked, to which she informed him that it did.
Though the poor teen took on some of Logan's traits, that didn't sink well with others, making Logan laugh/cough at the same time.
"I think she's quite taken with you, though Angel looks more into you." Jean smiles.
Logan smiles slightly "Well, you can tell them my heart belongs to someone else."
Angel's fears were confermed the pain knowing she knew hurt to much, but knew he would always see her as a kid instead of a woman hurt a whole lot more.
Setting the six pack down she walks out of the room, causing the two to look at her retreating form.
Xmen~Xmen~Xmen~Xmen
Sitting in front of the TV after listening to the news about Senater Kelly wanting to abandon the issue on Mutant Registration.
They all got a glimps that it was Mistque that was being Kelly's double.
The news came back on saying there was a new developement.
An African American military officer comes on introducing Tony, Angel leans in more her focaus on the TV she turns up the volume.
"And now, Mr. Stark has prepared a statement. He will not be taking questions. Thank you." The man looked uneasy, about her big brother going up and talking.
That's when a sharp dressed man with slick back hair, clean shaven goatee, dark blue suite and red tie walked to the podium.
Angel persumed the man to be her brother, sense she had only seen news articals.
"Been a while sense I was in front you. So I'll just stick to the cards this times." He looked distainfully at the note cards he pulls out of his suite pocket, this also caused the reporters to laugh.
"There's been speculation that I was involved in the events that occured, on the freeway and rooftop..."
He was interupted from reading as snooty reporter, asked if they were supposed to believe anything those cards said, or a bodygaurd was there.
Angel scoffs at the screen shaking her her head.
"I know that it's confusing. It's one thing to question the offical story, and another thing entirely or make wild accusations that I'm a superhero." He argues back.
"I never said you were a superhero." The reporter says, looking smug with herself.
"You didn't? Well, good because that would be outlandish and fantastic." this cause Angel to giggle at the reporter's confused face.
"I'm just not the superhero type. Clearly. With this laundry list of character defects, all the mistakes I made, largely public." His friend leens over whispering in Tony's ear.
"Truth is..." He pauses looking at the cards looking conflicted, weather to read them or not "I am Iron Man."
Angel's mouth drops in shock, her brother a superhero? How? Why?
He seamed to up stage her at every turn, Iron Man? Really?
The news seam to swich to something else like they weren't ready for it.
Sighing she turns it off causing Scott to glare at her "Was watching that!"
Angel shrugs tossing the remort to him, as she see's Rogue running to cetch up with Logan in turn causing Angel to follow.
"Hey you runnin again?"
Logan shakes his head "No I got some buisness up North."
Rogue seam to be holding back tears, she told Logan she didn't want him to go, he ends up giving her his dog tag.
"I'll be back for this."
He turned to go which caused Angel to fallow keeping her cloak nice and tight around her.
"So your going to leave me? Just up and leave? I thought we were supposed to stick together. watch out for each other." She eyes him.
Logan turns and looks at her, he could see the hurt in her eyes.
"I'll be back, I just want you to stay here where it's safe."
Angel scoffs "Don't feed me that line of bull Logan, but whatever I'll stay like I said at least I'm wanted here."
"Look your going to find a guy that will treat you right, I'm just not it I'm sorry if I lead you on but.." He shakes his head and turns to Scotts bike.
Sighing she turns walking back inside niether one saying goodbye.
