Chapter Ten
Good News?
Sandeman's House (about 3 weeks after the standoff):
"Hey you want some good news Logan."
"Matt?" Logan said frowning into his phone, this wasn't Matt Sung's normal greeting.
"Yea it's me sorry. Listen apparently that team White brought in for the hostage situation, never been heard of before. White's entire agency is out looking for him, he's disappeared."
"You're just hearing about this now?" Logan asked in disbelief
"It takes awhile for things to trickle down to the Seattle PD, even if it did happen on our turf."
"So what does this mean about White's former employers?" Logan said sitting down at the desk.
"Rumor has it, they're running with their tail in between their legs. Washington still wants the transgenics under control, but the NSA is dealing with a lot of pissed off important people. I'm sure one of your DC sources can get you better info though."
"Yea that's good news though, White was uhhh." Logan looked for the words to explain the man who not only wanted hundreds of people dead, but the man who had killed his own wife.
"Yea man I know. I watched you jump up on a car. Speaking of which, how did you manage that?"
Logan laughed, "Turns out the exo can be pretty useful in times of crisis."
"Yea Max is lucky you were there."
He frowned, he didn't know what to say.
"Not that hard to put together you jumping in the line of fire for Max, heard the name when Clemente got back, knew it had to be your Max."
"You…"
Matt cut him off, "Don't worry Logan, your secret's safe."
"Well thanks for the good news Matt, I'll be sure to pass it along. Let me know if you hear anything else."
"Will do. Take care."
"You too Matt." Logan smiled into the phone as he hit end and started to mentally go through his lists of contacts who could get him more info.
