Part One: Questions and Answers
"How about you answer some questions that I've been wondering." "Ok. Depends on the question." I took that as a yes. "Where are you from?" "Not sure." "Ok. Did you have a family, and siblings?" "I don't really know." "How come?" I asked as I sat on my bed and he seemed like he wanted to avoid the subject. So I did. "Never mind you don't have to tell me. Anyway, how come you're here? In this kind of place." It took him a minute to think about it. Then I heard professors voice in my head. "I need you in the laboratory. Now." I jumped a bit when he said the last part. Logan noticed and knew that Xavier was telling me to come down there.
"We'll continue another time. Ok?" Logan said as he followed me to the lab. "Sure maybe if I'm not that exaughsted from all the testing." He smiled and kissed my forehead. I was now in the lab on a table with wires almost all over my body. "So, what test are we doing now, Hank?" He looked at me as if it was obvious or something. "We are going to have professor take a look inside of your head to help you with retrieving your memories." Hank explained to me as Professor came in. "Just relax and let me into your mind Scarlet." I nodded and closed my eyes. I felt Xavier's hands holding the sides of my face. Then I appeared (I guessed in my mind) next to Professor. "You can walk?!" "Only in people's minds. Now I hear that you have had a dream or memory flash of a being in a pool with wires covering your body." I nodded. "Let me see." I closed my eyes then felt a rush of water along with wires painfully going into my skin. I screamed from the pain. I see the professor watching as all of this is occurring. I looked around to see two more tanks each on either side of me. On my right was a woman that I didn't really know. I turned to my left to see Logan there. In my head I was screaming out his name. 'Remember this isn't really happening.' I looked back at the Professor. 'But it had happened.' I telepathically told him. I then looked up as I see a splash of water going into my pool. I heard Logan's screams and heard his claws clinging. I looked at him an I can tell that he can see me. He walks over to me and cuts the wires from my body. He had helped me out of the pool. "You're going to be okay. What's your name?" he asked while making sure that we were alone. When I tried to speak nothing would come out at all.
He seemed to realize that too. I heard the gunshot and panicked. I tried to see where the bullet came from, but something or someone told me to run. I did as I was told. I got up from Logan and ran. Logan yelled at me to stop but I couldn't. I finally stopped to see a cloaked figure. I see him take off his hood. He had ashy colored hair and looks to be around fifty at least. He seemed worn out, just exaughsted. Until he saw me, I see him draw his gun and point it at me. I stared him down as he did the same. "Scarlet!" he said my name as if it was poison. I was confused. "Wait! Who are you, and where am I?" I said as I put my hands up. "You don't remember?" "No I don't. Otherwise I would already be on my way." I said as he lowered his gun. "No. That's an excellent idea, you need to leave. This place is falling apart." He told me pointing to an exit. Then I remembered Logan was still tring to find me. "What about the man who released me from the wired pool?" when I said this he hysterically laughs. I get another bad feeling. "Why would anyone even want to release such a destructive creature?" I was shock by what he had called me." What did you call me?" He then started to raise his gun back up. "Look you want out of here or not?" I nodded seeing as I have no choice since he seems to know me. When we reached the door I was in front of him. I heard another shot just as I opened the door to see everything falling apart. I felt pain radiating through my right shoulder blade. As I dropped to my knees, I hear his footsteps walking around to face me. I look up to meet the barrel of his gun. As I closed my eyes All I see is a flash of light and hear the last shot fire.
Part Two: Awakened
I woke up to see Hank, Logan, and Storm standing over me with worried faces. "Who was he?" I asked as I sat up with Logan's help. "He was a scientist that made Logan the way he is now. Although, I don't know why he had you there. Seems as if you something that he didn't want anyone else to find out." Xavier told me as he wheeled over in front of me. "That's how I remember my name. It was by his voice just repeating it in my head over, over, and over again." As I said this the room started to darken and I can hear Xavier in my head. 'You need to calm yourself or you'll hurt somebody. Think of something else.' I looked to my right to see Logan. Then everything went back to the way it was. After that I knew that Logan wanted to know what I saw. We were going back to our room when more memories came flooding back. I fell to my knees and held my head in pain.
(Logan's POV)
I was walking Scarlet back to our room when she suddenly fell to her knees, holding her head, and screaming in agony. I had to cover my ears by how high she was screaming. Xavier told me to bring her to the lab so Hank can put her to sleep. I nodded and carried her while trying not to lose my hearing. When I got there Hank had everything already set up. I put her on the table as Hank went to get a dose of sleeping stuff. When Hank tried to put the needle in her arm her whole body started to spasm uncontrollably. "Logan, Storm I need you both to hold her down. Hurry!" We did as he said and it did make it easier for him to put the needle in and give her the drug. Her body had finally stopped. Her breathing was normal, and she stopped screaming. "What the hell happened to her?" "She is getting her memories back. I didn't know she would have this reaction." Xavier said as he entered the lab. "What now?" Strom asked a bit worried. "We wait until she wakes up. No need to worry Storm. Scarlet just needs to sort these memories of hers in her mind." Xavier explained.
(Scarlet's POV)
I was in a dark room. Almost like one of those interrogation rooms. I looked around to try to see if there was any one in there with me. "Easy there, Scarlet. We just need answers for our boss." A man appears out of the shadows. He seemed like someone I knew, but I of course had no idea. "Where is the island where the mutant kids escaped?" "I don't know what you're talking about." I told him. That made him even more enraged. "Goddamn it I know you were there when they escaped!" Then he suddenly grabs my shoulder and threw me across the room. Pain radiated throughout my spine. "I told you this before we can do this the easy way or the hard way." There was a knock on a window. He went back into the darkness. I got back up and grabbed the lamp to light my way. All I saw was walls, no doors, and no window.
