"Logan, I'm glad you decided to come here after all!" the professor said.
"It better be worth it," Logan said.
"I think it already is," the professor said as he looked at Jean. "Have you met the other X-men? Besides Jean, of course," he added.
Jean lowered her eyes to the ground, embarrassed.
"I've met a few," Logan said.
"This beautiful lady right here is Moira." Moira and Logan shook hands. Logan was very uncomfortable. The professor was probably listening to all of his thoughts. "Wow, a bunch of blue people, laser-eye dude, a couple of telepaths, and a guy with claws. What could possibly go wrong? Shit, don't think about it, don't think about it," Logan thought. The professor and Jean laughed out loud. "Oh Jean, not you, too!" Logan said.
"Annoying, isn't it?" Moira said to Logan. He gave her a "tell me about it" look. He never had many friends, and he was never good with people. New people especially. But these were Jean's friends, he would try his best for her.
"Well, Logan, would you like to see what we're all about? How we work together?" the professor asked. Logan took a breath, ready to say something when the professor interrupted him, "I thought so. Jean, get as many people as you can to the danger room."
"But, professor, I have just been there with Scott and Kurt," she said, sounding tired.
"Good, then you're already warmed up. See you there shortly."

Logan chuckled. He remembered what the danger room was. The memories of Jean were slowly unlocking all the other memories of the old timeline. He shook his head when he recalled all the quarrels with Scott, how he didn't want to take orders from him. Scott was most likely the leader in this timeline as well, or was going to be. "That's just gonna suck," Logan thought. Jean heard his thoughts, for she looked at him puzzled. "I've known ya for a long time, Jeanie. And the professor, too. I'll explain everythin' when we're alone," he said as he squeezed her hand. "D'ya trust me?"
Jean nodded.

"Cyclops, you're taking charge of today's training," the professor said.
"Oh, great..." Logan grumbled.
"Me? Wow, thank you, professor!" Scott said, "Alright, Nightcrawler, Beast, to the obstacle course!"
"B-but, I just did that for a whole hour!" Kurt protested.
"You'll do it for another one then!" Scott said. Kurt sighed, but headed over to the course. "What's that? Worried I'll be faster than you this time?" Hank joked.
"Not at all," Kurt said.
Scott pointed at Jean and Jubilee. "You two, over here! Jubilee and I will be shooting energy beams, Jean, try to direct them in those targets."
"Yes, sir!" the girls said.
"Storm, shoot electricity Quicksilver's way. Also, be on the lookout just in case anything catches on fire! And you..."
By the tone of Scott's voice, Logan knew he meant him. Scott already hated him and yet he didn't even know him. Some things never change.
"Do you have a nickname?" Scott asked.
"Wolverine," Logan answered.
"Wolverine, you take on one of the sentinels."
"Fair enough," Logan thought. First day and he'd already get to tear stuff up. Not bad. He popped his claws out and walked over to the sentinel.

"You missed! Again!" Quicksilver laughed as he avoided another one of Storm's lightnings.
"You're not the only one who's quick," Storm said as she flew in the air and started spinning fast.
Quicksilver watched in awe. He lost focus, and didn't move fast enough as Storm sent another wave of electricity his way.
"Ouch!"
"Maybe we should call you "Slowsilver" from now on," Storm winked.

Nightcrawler and Beast were having fun on the obstacle course. Although they didn't exactly use it as it was intended to be used. Beast started grabbing things and throwing them at Nightcrawler, who avoided them while he ran through the course.

Meanwhile Wolverine was battling it out with the sentinel. It tried to grab him as it flew around him, but Wolverine had amazing reflexes. He avoided it's arm as he jumped sideways, then he quickly jumped forward, then to the other side and punched the sentinel in the chest. This went on for a while, until Wolverine had enough, grabbed it with his claws and threw it against the wall. Everybody froze. They looked at the very likely damaged sentinel lying on the ground, then they looked at Logan. After a moment of silence, Jubilee started clapping.
"Thanks," Logan said to Jubilee.
He looked at Jean who was smiling at him. She had a spark in her eyes. "Ya like that, huh?" Logan thought.
"You bet," Jean told him telepathically.
"Okay, everyone back to what you were doing," Scott said.
"Except you, Logan, you've done quite enough for today," the professor said.
"Sorry 'bout that..." Logan said.
"That's alright. Come here and watch the rest of the training with me. But please, retract your claws before you do so."

Cyclops took his visor off and shot a beam Jean's way. Not exactly at her at first, but he kept aiming closer and closer at her as he felt confident she'll redirect it. Jean slammed the beam at the target behind Scott.
"Pretty far from the center," Jubilee teased as she threw the fireworks at her.
Jean shot it closer this time. "Nice one, Jean," Scott said.
She was doing so well, Cyclops and Jubilee started to attack almost simultaneously to give her a challenge. Jean shot Scott's beam right in the center of the target, but Jubilee's fireworks went dangerously close to the professor's head.
"Oh my God, I'm so sorry!" Jean said to professor, who slowly moved farther away from the targets.
Jubilee gave her a slow clap.
"Oh, stop it!"Jean said.
Jean thought about Logan. How did he know her? And the rest of them? Why didn't she know him? Did the professor know him? He seemed like he did. She was lost in her thoughts when Cyclops' beam grazed her a little above her hip.
"Aaargh!" Jean grunted in pain. She touched her side. Her uniform had a clean cut in it, and her hand was getting wet from the blood coming out of her wound.
"Jean, Jean, are you okay?" Jubilee ran up to her.
"I...I...I'm so sorry, Jean!" Scott said as he walked up to her.
"Get away from her!" Logan got in his face. His claws were out and his eyes screamed bloody murder.
"No, that's okay! I'm okay!" Jean said, trying to keep the tension from escalating even more.
"He hurt you," Logan said, still staring Scott down.
"I really didn't mean to.." Scott said. He felt terrible.
"It was my fault, I lost focus. He didn't mean to. Logan, please..." she said.
Logan retracted his claws and came over to Jean and Jubilee.
"Jean, I'm so sorry," Scott apologized again.
"I know, it's okay," Jean said.
"Let me look at it," Hank said. "You need stitches. Come on, let's clean it out and stitch it up!"
