War.

Peter's Journal.

It became clear after Stryker had the place surrounded along with a few of the students taken into custody for his own science experiments, Vega along with mine and Nathan's help got the others to a safe place not far from here,  it wasn't much but it was enough to keep us safe until professor Xavier could make arrangements for us but one thing was clear from Stryker's unannounced visit that he wanted a war and a war is what he was going to get.

~~~

After we found shelter elsewhere,  Nathan and myself made sure Vega wouldn't be harmed by Stryker or his men. I had been standing outside keeping watch while Nathan and Vega hid the kids in an underground bunker.

I had did my part by protecting Vega from the danger that threatened us, she would always have my heart no matter what happened to me after this was over. Nathan had walked over to where I was and helped me watch for any intruders in the area.

Nathan: you seem tense, are you okay?

Peter: I will be fine once this is over with.

Nathan: I understand your aggravation but what if this never ends, Vega and the kids can't hide forever.

Peter: I know they can't but the last thing I want is for them to be harmed and as for you well you have to protect them from now on.

Nathan: what do you mean? Vega is your wife, you can't just leave without saying goodbye.

Peter: I know you amd I hadn't gotten along but I want this to be over and I know I am the one Stryker wants and he won't rest until I am captured and brought back to him alive. Will you keep her safe for me? I can't trust anyone else to do it.

Nathan: I will keep her safe I promise, it was an honor fighting beside you.

Peter: before I go, could you tell her that I am sorry that it had to be this way?

Nathan: of course, I suggest you hurry before she comes out here amd sees you leaving.

I took his advice amd left in a hurry, I knew it would break her heart but this was the only way she was truly safe from Stryker forever and I knew Nathan could protect and love her more than I ever could.
