X-Men Story My Version
Chapter Five: Safe Place
In the White House parking log in the same day, Kelly & Gyrich walk out of the White House on their way to their helicopter. Gyrich waves to a mass of supporters. Most of them are waving signs of racist support: SEND THE MUTANTS TO THE MOON, MR. MUTANT, etc. Kelly and Gyrich board their helicopter.
On the helicopter, Gyrich studies Kelly while Kelly talks on his cell phone.
"Senator Willard, you favor handgun registration, don't you? Well, some of these so-called children have ten times the destructive force of any handgun. No, I don't see a difference. All I see are weapons in our schools. Well, that's fair enough. Yes. Goodbye." Senator Kelly said into his phone.
Kelly hangs up.
"Well?" Gyrich asked.
"It'll be close. A vote this loaded is always close." Kelly responds.
"What about the U. N. summit? The whole world will be watching. Maybe you can turn that to your advantage?" Gyrich told him.
"We're Americans, Henry. Let the rest of the damn world deal with mutants in their own way." Senator Kelly responds. Senator Kelly reflects looking out the window of the helicopter. "You know, this situation, these mutants... people like this Jean Grey... if it were up to me, I'd lock 'em all away. It's a war. That's the reason why people like me exist." He said. Kelly looks out the window and notices there is water underneath him. "Where the hell are we?"
Gyrich transforms... into MYSTIQUE, a blue woman with yellow eyes and red hair. She wears no clothes, but her scaly skin protects her. She continues to sit and watch Kelly with hateful amusement. Kelly gapes at her for an instant, then screams and tries to jump out the door. She stands on her hands and grabs his face with her feet.
MYSTIQUE: "You know, people like you are the reason I was afraid to go to school as a child." Mystique said to him angrily. With superhuman strength and dexterity, she cracks his face back and forth with her feet until he falls down, unconscious. She slides into the co-pilot's seat in the cockpit, joining the pilot, Toad who laughs at the good ole Senator.
Medical monitors beep, keeping track of the vital signs of Logan, who lies in a bed in the middle of a medical lab. He is asleep, recovering. Jean Grey stands over him. Her hand moves across his body. His rippling muscles. With her mind, she levitates a chemical over him and into her hand. Jean uncaps an IV needle and moves to the middle of Logan's arm. Jean starts to insert it. Just as she is sticking the needle in his arm he jolts violently. Whipping around behind the startled Jean and grabbing her by the throat. She is unable to speak, choked silent by his grip. Then he is on his feet and out the door. Jean is on the floor, gasping for breath.
Logan tears some medical monitors off his skin. He looks around, not sure which way to run. He is surrounded by X-logo double doors.
"Where is he?" An unidentified voice speaks. Logan can hear the voice but doesn't know where the person is. Logan jolts again. He has no idea where the voice has come from.
He looks around more and sees some sort of locker room. Hanging in a row are uniforms, much like the ones worn by his rescuers. He starts to rummage through the lockers, coming up with a shirt and pants that almost fit.
"Where are you going?" The unidentified voice speaks again.
Once again, Logan doesn't know where the voice has come from. He's now genuinely spooked.
An elevator opens next to him.
"Over here!" The unidentified voice speaks once again.
Logan gets into the elevator. The doors close...
Logan gets out of the elevator and sees a tastefully decorated hallway. He looks around wondering where the hell he was. The place looked like a nicely decorated mansion.
The voices in Logan's head begin to pick up frequency: "Where is he?" "This way!" "Over here!" "Where are you going?"
Logan hides from a crowd of students that are running down the hallway.
Then he looks at several doors, trying to pick one to go through... and he enters one. He has entered Charles Xavier's study. Charles Xavier is there, surrounded by about five students and a blackboard. One of them, Kitty Pryde, is a pert young girl. Xavier regards Logan as if he just expected Logan's arrival.
"Good morning, Logan." Professor Xavier said to him. Logan, who was prepared for anything but this, just stares. "Now I want your definition of weak and strong anthropic principles on Wednesday. That'll be all. The students file out. Kitty forgets her purse, then remembers and goes back for it.
"Goodbye, Professor." Kitty said blushing.
"Goodbye, Kitty." Professor Xavier said to her. Kitty runs out of the room, right through the solid door. Logan looks at it, then back at Xavier.
"Physics." Professor Xavier said holding up the text book. "Can I offer you some breakfast?" He asked politely.
"Where am I?" Logan asked alarmed.
"Westchester, New York." Xavier told him. Xavier comes out from behind his desk. We see that he is in a motored wheelchair. "I'm Professor Charles Xavier."
"After you were attacked, my people brought you here for medical attention." Professor Xavier explained.
"I don't need medical attention." Logan told him.
"Yes, of course." Professor Xavier said.
"Where's the girl?" Logan asked remembering that Rogue was with him.
"Rogue? She's here. She's fine." Professor Xavier explained to him.
"Really." Logan asked as if he didn't believe him. Logan was hit with two aromas. The first smelled of wood and oil. The scent you'd find on a male. The second a very powerful aroma, a mixture of rain forest combined with Vanilla. The same man and woman whom who saved Logan and Rogue earlier step into Professor Xavier's study this time without their costume. The woman is known as Storm, the man as Cyclops. The man wears some dark red sunglasses. Logan barely saw Cyclops but focused on the beautiful woman before him.
"May I present Ororo Monroe, also called Storm..." Professor Xavier introduces them.
"Hello." Ororo said smiling.
"Uh." Logan could barely say. He was mesmerized by her beauty, her scent matching her beautiful form. He was at a loss for words. She was incredibly beautiful. Logan couldn't remember ever seeing a woman so gorgous.
"And Scott Summers, also called Cyclops." Professor Xavier said introducing.
Cyclops offers his hand. Logan just stares at it. Then shakes his hand.
"Nice to meet you both. Thanks for the assist back there." Logan said looking from Scott to Ororo.
"It was my pleasure." Ororo said flirting a little. Logan smirks. Logan wasn't the only one sizing staring. He caught her looking him up and down sizing him up. She was impressed with his physic. Logan definitely kept in great shape. Logan was handsome in a rugged kind of way. She was definitely getting a little aroused. Logan could smell the arousal on her. So much so that it was turning him on. Both would've to tone it down.
"No worries." Scott said to him. Jean walks into Professor Xavier's study as well.
"You've already met Dr. Jean Grey." Professor said. Logan stares at her.
"Hey." Logan said noticing the jasmine scent in the room. He liked Jean's scent but Storm's scent was much more powerful and intoxicating. A scent he definitely wanted to familiarize himself. Jean is the classical kind of beauty while Ororo was the sexy kind of beautiful.
"They saved your life. You're at my mansion, a school for mutants. You'll be safe here from Magneto." Professor Xavier said.
"What's a Magneto?" Logan asked.
"A very powerful mutant who believes a war is brewing between mutants and the rest of humanity. I've been following his activities for some time. The man who attacked you is an associate of his named Sabretooth." Professor Xavier explained.
"Sabretooth?" Logan asked sneering. "Cyclops, Storm." He said pointing from Scott to her. She didn't look angry but amused. She could tell he was confused. He makes a clicking noise with his mouth. He gyrates his eyebrows at Ororo who smirks clearly flirting back. Logan looks to Professor Xavier "What do they call you? "Wheels?" He asks. Scott and Ororo smirk amused at his joke. "This is the stupidest thing I've ever heard. That Sabretooth dude must've hit me harder than I thought." He said as Jean smirked while Scott and Ororo laughed. Even Professor Xavier had to smirk. "I should go." He said as he'd about to leave. Scott is standing in the doorway, not moving. "Cyclops," right?" Logan pats him on the shoulder. "Excuse me. I need to clear my head." Scott is about to move away from the door when Logan hears something in his head.
"Logan. It's been almost fifteen years, hasn't it?" Professor Xavier said his lips. Xavier's words chill Logan to the bone. Logan looks back at him. "Moving from place to place, with no idea who you really are?"
"Shut up!" Logan yells.
"Give me a chance. I may be able to help you find what you're looking for." Professor Xavier said to him.
"How do you know-?" Logan asked.
"You're not the only one with gifts." Professor Xavier said. Logan hears the voice in his mind. Then Logan hears the other voices that he heard before... indicating that perhaps Xavier had herded Logan through the mansion with his mind. Logan can't help but be curious now.
"What is this place?" Logan asked.
"Why don't I give you a tour of the mansion? You three have classes to attend to." Professor said to them.
"Nice meeting you Logan." Scott said as Jean pushes him out of the door. Logan waved.
"We'll talk later Logan." Ororo said as Logan smiles at her both are clearly attracted to each other. He watches her exit Professor Xavier's study. Logan definitely liked the white haired beauty and was admiring everything about her. Her hips, her bust size, her lips, her sexy romp, her eyes, her sleek slender legs, the way she sashayed out of the room. Logan was hypnotized.
A group of boys are playing basketball outside. One of them teleports his way to the goal.
"Anonymity is a mutant's first defense against the world's hostility." Professor Xavier said
"Hey, no powers!" Boy says to as one of the boys playing baseball uses his abilities. Boys race along the front walk. One of them is racing on water.
"To the outside world, we're only a school for the gifted." Professor Xavier said as he gives Logan a tour of the school. They come upon the training room. Jean levitates a number of saucers, throwing them out one at a time. They come at Cyclops from seemingly all directions, but he manages to blast them all. "Cyclops, Jean, and Storm were some of my first students. I protected them, trained them to use their powers, and eventually, to train others to do the same." They come upon a classroom. The smell of rain forest mixed with Vanilla scent fills Logan's nose. He recognizing the smell belonging to Ororo Monroe. They watch a moment as Storm is teaching a class that includes Rogue and Bobby, a pretty-looking boy about Rogue's age. One of the students, John, plays with a lighter behind his back. Using the spark, he makes a small fireball in his hand. Logan watches carefully. He suspected the boy's ability was to control or manipulate fire. Bobby directs a stream of cold at the fireball. It freezes, falls, and shatters.
"John." Ororo said scolding the boy.
"Sorry." John said.
"The students are mostly runaways, some of them with gifts are so extreme that they've become a danger to themselves and to others, like your friend Rogue, incapable of human contact, probably for the rest of her life. And yet here she is, with others her own age, being accepted, not feared." Professor Xavier said.
Rogue catches Bobby's eye.
He puts a little ice sculpture on her desk. A welcome present.
"Welcome to Mutant High." Bobby said to her. Rogue smiles.
Logan lingers a moment watching Ororo who looks over at him. She smiles warmly at him before going back to her lesson. He turns to Rogue to make sure she's ok. She sees him and waves to him. Logan smiles and waves back before catching up the professor.
"Who's the boy with the fire ability?" Logan asked.
"He's Storm's son." Professor Xavier said to him gaging his reaction. Logan's eye brow went up.
"Damn, she's got a man." Logan thought to himself.
"No she doesn't. John is Ororo's adopted son. She found him in running the streets of Ohio. The kid was homeless and was pick pocketing to feed himself. He was just seven years old. His mother had abandoned him when he accidentally burnt the school down." Professor Xavier explains about John. She found him and brought him back here. "She asked if I could help her officially adopt him and I did."
"Wow." Logan said. "What'll happen to Rogue?" Logan asked.
"Well, that's up to her. Either she'll rejoin the world an educated woman, or stay to become one of what my students have affectionately called the "X-Men."" Professor Xavier explains as they head to the garage. Jean and Cyclops teach kids near a motorcycle. "But that's just the public face of the school. The lower levels are another matter entirely." He said as they head down towards the lower levels. "Come, I want you to meet two of my other former students who are now teachers." He said as Logan follows.
They come upon the Hanger of the mansion.
One plane, the black bird, resides in the hangar as Xavier and Logan go inside.
"When I was 16, I learned that I could control the minds of others, make them do or think whatever I wanted. Around that time, I met another young man, Erik Lansherr, who also had an amazing power. He could create magnetic fields and control metal. Convinced that humans would never accept us, he... he grew angry and vengeful. He became Magneto. They come upon a door that opens to a room that looked exactly like a martial arts Dojo. Logan was impressed. There were a lot of equipment there like several punch bags, mini punching bags, head gears, hand wraps, mirrors. Logan sees a shrine a martial arts shrine and above it are the belt ranks from White to Black. There's a picture of a man wearing only his gi pants with a black belt around his waist. He's got short white hair and has the same color eyes like Ororo's. If Logan didn't know any better he could swear that this guy was related to her. "This place is what the kids refer to as the dojo. We also have a regular work out gym as well but the kids love spending time here."
"Does Cyclops teach Karate as well?" Logan asked smirking. Scott didn't look like the martial arts type but he imagined he could hold his own.
"No that's preserved for our mutant resident martial arts instructor and MMA fighter Orion Monroe." Professor Xavier said to him. Logan looked down at him. Logan standing by one of the punches bags decides to take a few swings. Professor Xavier watches. Logan had some skills but he wasn't nearly the fighter Orion is.
"Orion Monroe? He would be related to Storm would he?" He asked.
"Yes he is. He is her younger brother." Professor Xavier said. Logan was shocked by this. Storm had a brother.
"So the kids come here to what train?" Logan asked.
"Precisely." Professor Xavier told him. "Orion or Rion as he likes to be called is a high level mutant."
"What do you mean?" Logan asked.
"He's what is called an Alpha mutant. A mutant with more than two abilities." Professor Xavier said. Logan looked confused. "There are several kinds of levels for mutants. Kind of like the chain of evolution. Mutants have six different levels depending on their abilities. Someone with a level one or two mutants are regarded as useless and maybe used as pawns." Professor Xavier said to him.
"You mean they could be used and discarded like trash?" Logan asked.
"Yes." Professor Xavier said as they left the dojo. The doors closed. "A level three mutant can be used either way depending on their mutation. Level four and five mutants are regarded as powerful mutants. For instance, someone like you or Rogue, John Cyclops are considered level four mutants."
"I'm a level four mutant?" Logan asked rather amused.
"Yes." Professor Xavier told him.
"So what about the boy in class with Rogue?" Logan asked.
"You mean Bobby Drake. Iceman. Bobby is a level four mutant." Professor said.
"So what would a level five mutant look like?" Logan asked.
"You're looking at one." Professor Xavier told him as they continued back upstairs using the elevator. "Magneto is a level five mutant as well. You'd have to be with his ability."
"So is Storm a level five mutant?" Logan asked.
"No she's much more powerful than that. She and Jean are considered Omega mutants. Extremely powerful. Rion on the other hand is an Alpha mutant. A mutant with the ability to have control of more than five abilities."
"Come again?" Logan asked as if he had heard him right.
"Rion can control more than five abilities." Professor Xavier explains.
"How many are we talking?" Logan asked his curiosity getting the better of him.
"Approximately twenty." Professor Xavier said as Logan's eyebrows shot up in shock. He had never met a mutant with that many abilities.
"So why isn't he here teaching?" Logan asked.
"Rion is a professional MMA fighter. He often travels when he's not here. When he is home, he teaches and trains at the same time. He teaches the students how to defend themselves around their abilities. Though I try to practice non-violence, there are enemies out there that must be stopped." Professor Xavier said.
"Is Rion an X-Men?" Logan asked.
"He is." Professor Xavier said as the make their way to the kitchen. Logan's stomach was definitely growling as he had forgotten to eat. They could hear commotion in the kitchen.
"Did we forget something?" The male voice asked.
"No." The female voice said annoyed. "You always ask that every time we go shopping."
"Just trying to be thorough. We have eighty students here and need to make we do it accordingly." The male voice spoke up again.
"He's right you know?" Professor Xavier said as he and Logan walk into the large kitchen. Logan looked around liking the surrounds. Several tables for the students to eat, cabinets, sink a stove, all the amenities you'd find in a kitchen. Standing in the kitchen are a tall female with blond hair, blue eyes and a killer body and the male is a little shorter with brown hair slender looking body and bears a striking resemblance to Cyclops.
"You always take his side." The blond said pouting playfully.
"Who's the new guy?" The male asked.
"Logan, this is Emma Frost and Alex Summers, better known as Frost and Havoc." Professor Xavier introduced them. "This is Logan."
"Nice to meet you man." Alex said extending his hand. Logan shook it.
"Charmed." Emma said smirking. She was staring at his upper torso. "I think Storm will take a liking to you."
"I'd say she already has." Professor adds with a sly smirk. Logan smirked as well.
"Hey you're last name is the same as Cyclops." Logan said. Alex smirked.
"Yes, Scott is my big bro." Alex said.
"Another set of siblings." Logan said. Both Emma and Alex looked at him and realized he was referring to Ororo and Orion.
"Oh you mean the Monroe siblings." Alex said as Emma chuckled. Logan nods. "Scott and I get along better than they do. I can tell you that much."
"Looks like you two really went shopping." Professor Xavier said.
"Yes. Peter is out back getting the rest of the food." Alex said. Emma looks over at him. Logan and Professor Xavier stare at him as well. "I should go help him. Nice meeting you Logan."
"Same here." Logan said.
"Emma when you get the food unpacked, you mind making some breakfast for Logan here?" Professor Xavier asked.
"Sure." Emma said.
"Thank you." Professor Xavier as he and Logan headed back to his office. They back to Professor Xavier's office.
"Are Frost and Havoc level five mutants?" Logan asked.
"No level four mutants but Frost is powerful telepath and Havoc's concussion beams are powerful. Havoc is the only other mutant trained in the martial arts and he teaches when Rion isn't here. Frost teaches Math." He said as Logan nods.
"So Omega and Alpha mutants are powerful but what is the difference?" Logan asked.
"Well take Jean and Ororo for example. Both women are powerful within their own abilities. Jean's telepathy is strong and she's getting stronger every day. She can essentially read people's minds but she's also telekinetic as well being able to move objects and people using her mind. Powers when tapped into can expand to three thousand miles. She can reach out and literally hurt someone from that far of a distance. Ororo on the other hand can control every element known to man. She's not called Storm for nothing. Every aspect of the weather bends at her fingertips. Storm's abilities are controlled through her emotions. If she's angry there's lightening. When she's happy there's sun outside. If Storm gets angry enough, her emotions can have catastrophic measures."
"So if both are driven to the point of no return, they can be dangerous?" Logan asked.
"Exactly." Professor Xavier said. Logan sat down in one of the chairs. "Rion is able to control all twenty of his abilities. His X-Men name is Mystro." Professor said smirking. Logan rolled his eyes.
"What are his abilities?" Logan asked.
"Mystro can control electricity, he's a powerful telepath as well as telekinetic." Professor Xavier said.
"Like Jean."
"Yes. He also has superhuman abilities much like you. He has speed, hearing, strength, smell, agility and intelligence." Professor Xavier explained. "You know all about having superhuman abilities don't you?" Logan looks over at him, then nods. "Another ability he has that you're familiar with is accelerated healing." He said as Logan looked up at him shocked. He hadn't met another mutant who could heal himself. "Atomkinesis is the ability to control all living atoms in the world and planet. Rion has this ability but doesn't use it as often too afraid to hurt anyone."
"But he's a fighter." Logan said absent mindedly.
"Fighting is all about athleticism. If he used atomkinesis in the cage, he's opponent as well as everyone in the arena would be killed." Professor Xavier explained.
"So what are his other abilities?" Logan asked intrigued by the mutant who is related to the woman of his dreams and had he yet to meet.
"Omnilinguism is the ability to understand any and all languages as well as speak it fluently. He can speak every language known to man and understand it." Professor Xavier continues to explain Rion's abilities. Logan was intrigued. "He can fly, he sense danger whether it's present, going to happen or it's near. He's a human lie detector so it's bed not to lie to him cause he'll be able to tell. He's also a technopath."
"What's a technopath?" Logan asked clueless.
"A technopath is a person who can control and manipulate technology using his mind. Sometimes if the toaster acts up, Rion can fix it. He can activate and deactivate objects including other abilities." Professor Xavier said to him.
"So he can cut off or reactivate someone's abilities?" Logan asked.
"Yes. Rion has enhanced vision, can tell when there's another mutant present, can be invisible, is invulnerable and has exceptional tracking skills." Professor Xavier said to him. "The last three abilities he has are Access and Occlusion, Power Negation, and Power Augmentation."
"What?" Logan asked. Professor Xavier smirked.
"Access and Occlusion are the ability to either gain access to just about everything and anything. Occlusion is the opposite. Power Negation is the ability to negate other mutant abilities. Power Augmentation is the ability to enhance the powers of all mutants within shot. Rion can only do this with those of his choosing." He said as Logan nods.
"So the fact that he has all these abilities makes him an alpha mutant?" Logan asked.
"Right. His abilities come in handy while on missions." Professor Xavier said to him. "Many powerful mutants are out there, Logan, and many of them do not share my respect for mankind. Without anyone to protect them, humanity's days might be numbered. "I'll make a deal with you, Logan. Give me 48 hours to find what Magneto wants with you, and I swear I'll do all I can to help you piece together what you've lost... and what you're looking for." Logan nods. Professor Xavier looked away a moment then smiled. "Ah I believe Emma has finished cooking. You get something to eat. Jean will check on you. I have a class to teach." He said as Logan nods.
Logan headed for the kitchen. Headed back towards the kitchen. He slowly made his way into and sat down at the table.
"We usually eat with clothes on?" Emma said teasingly. Logan smirked. Was she flirting with him.
"Don't flirt with him Emma. It might make your boyfriend jealous." Alex said. "He you go man." He said handing Logan a shirt to put on.
"Thanks." Logan said slipping the white t-shirt over his torso.
"Hey you go. Enjoy." Emma said placing a plate filled with food on it in front of Logan. He dug into his food taking it down with ease. Emma was a little put off by his eating but assumed it had been awhile since he's had a decent meal. She and Alex continued to put away the remainder of the food in the big freezer as well as the walk in cabinet.
After he ate, the professor asked Alex to take him to the lab so Jean could prep him for the tests she'd like perform on him. Alex was nothing like Cyclops. Both had the same ability just that their concussion beams came from two different places. Logan wondered how they ended up there. He decided to ask.
"So, you and Scott have the same abilities?" Logan asked.
"Yes. His comes out of his eyes and mines I can generate from hands." Alex said.
"Isn't hard to touch someone without hurting them?" Logan asked.
"No. I can absorb and then using to my advantage. Usually comes out in energy beams." Alex explained.
"So how long have you and Scott been here?" Logan asked.
"Since we were about eight. Well I was eight and he was twelve. We don't remember much about our parents but that Professor Xavier found us and took us in. We've been here ever since. We're not just teachers here, we're a family." Alex explains as they continue towards the lad. Logan nods. Though he couldn't remember anything about his family, Logan can tell that this place is a safe haven for mutants of all kinds.
"I understand you are a martial artist?" Logan asks.
"Yes." Alex laughs. "I was taught by Rion. We actually trained at the same dojo but Rion was more advanced in his training. I earned my black belt because of him."
"He's that good?" Logan asked. Alex smirked.
"You'll meet him. He should be back tomorrow." Alex said they entered the lab. "I see my soon to be sister in law is getting the lab ready."
"Soon to be in law?" Logan asked.
"Yes, Scott and I are engaged." Jean said. "Logan would lay on the table please?" she asked him. "Oh and uh take that shirt off." He smirks. Alex smirks before leaving. Logan removes shirt then lays back onto the table.
"I'm sorry." Logan apologized.
"For what?" Jean asked.
"If I hurt you." Logan said to her. He was referring to choking her earlier today. He was disoriented and didn't know where he was. His natural instincts took over. Jean smiles sweetly. "So... couldn't wait to get my shirt off again, could you?" He joked. Thought it was a little casual flirting. It wasn't Jean he wanted but Ororo. Jean looks at him, then presses a button which slides his medical table into a wall. Logan lies still as bright lights pass over him. Jean was taking X rays of his body. She was intrigued by what she sees. She also took some blood samples as well as checked his heart rate. She was impressed with Logan's medical chart. She telepathically asked Professor Xavier to gather the others to the lab.
Storm, Cyclops, Frost, Havoc and the Professor look on as Jean explains the X-rays she's taken. Logan's skeleton is metallic.
"The metal's called adamantium. Supposedly unbreakable." Jean said explaining it. "It's been grafted to his entire skeleton"
"How could he survive such an operation?" Storm asked.
"Must've hurt like hell." Havoc said. Scott smirked.
"His mutation. He has uncharted regenerative ability. It also makes his age impossible to determine. He could very well be older than you, Professor." Jean told them.
"Who did this to him?" Cyclops asked.
"He doesn't remember. And he has no memory of what his life was like before it happened." Jean told them.
"Experimentation on mutants. It's not unheard of." Professor Xavier said to the group. "But I've never seen anything like this before."
"Experimenting on mutants like lab rats is disgusting. It sickens me." Emma said frowning.
"What could Magneto want with him?" Cyclops asks.
"I'm not exactly sure it's him Magneto wants." Professor Xavier said.
"Maybe Roh here can show him to his room." Emma said teasingly as they chuckled. Emma said this deliberately. She knew Logan was still listening. She could tell he was smirking.
"Shut up Emma." Ororo said smirking.
"Oh come on. How long has it been since you been laid." Emma said as Cyclops, Havoc and Jean laughed. Professor Xavier seemed a little less amused. Logan was smiling wide. Oh how he wanted to lay Ororo but would wait until she was ready.
"That's none of your business." Ororo retored.
"That long huh?" Emma asked as they continued chuckling.
"Enough teasing Emma." Professor Xavier said as Emma looked away smirking.
"We should focus on something else." Cyclops said.
"Yeah like the upcoming nuptials. Here's a thought, Roh why don't you invite Logan to the wedding? He can be your date." Emma said.
"Oh god." Ororo said getting up to leave the lab. Apparently the conversation was over. Emma followed her. Logan stayed seated on the table. Ororo stops upon seeing him seated on the table. Both make eye contact the smile at each other. Emma comes up behind her, laughs before pushing Ororo forward. Logan shakes his head smirking.
"I think I'm gonna like it here." He said to himself.
