How many secrets can you keep?
'Cause there's this tune I found
That makes me think of you somehow an' I play it on repeat
Until I fall asleep, spillin' drinks on my settee

CHAPTER THREE: examination
★·.·'¯'·.·★ 𝔇𝔬 ℑ 𝔴𝔞𝔫𝔫𝔞 𝔨𝔫𝔬𝔴? ★·.·'¯'·.·★
ANAKIN SAWYER HAD TAKEN LOGAN BACK TO THE MED BED. After Charles had shown him around the school. Anakin was unsure if the other man was staying at the school for curtain, or, if Logan was just gonna stay here until Sabertooth was dealt with.
"Remove your shirt," Anakin ordered, getting whatever he had needed for the examination set on the table.
It had all been knocked over before, when Logan ran out. And Anakin had partly cleaned it up, picking up the items off of the floor, but hadn't disinfected nor had he replaced them. Until now.
Anakin turned, with the electrodes in hand. Logan already lying in the table.
"I'm sorry," Logan spoke.
"For what?"
"If I hurt you," Logan pointed.
Anakin shook his head. As he began to walk over to her monitor screen. "It really doesn't meet my top ten injuries."
"Is that supposed to make me feel better?"
"Yeah. But I'm not good at it. Apparently, that's what Scott says anyway." And Jean. And Professor X in his 'helping you' tone.
"So, couldn't wait to get my shirt off again, huh?" Logan questioned.
Anakin was glad he faced the monitor, or else Logan would see the slight haze a pink hue on his face. He dressed the button, making the table slid into the machine.
He tilted his head when seeing the scan.

"The metal is an alloy called adamantium. Supposedly indestructible. It's been surgically grafted to his entire skeleton." Anakin explained, in a room with Professor X, Storm, Scott and Jean.
"How could he have survived a procedure like that?" Storm questioned.
"He's a mutation." Jean speaks, when seeing the hesitant look on Anakin's face. She gave him a comforting smile.
"He has an uncharted regenerative capability, which is what makes him heal, almost immediately. But, it also makes his age incredibly difficult-impossible, to determine." Anakin spoke. "He could be older than you, Professor."
"Who did this to him?" Cyclops asked.
"He doesn't know. He can't remember anything about his life before it happened."
"Experimentation in mutants." Professor Xavier sighed, disappointed. "It's not unheard of. But I've never seen anything like this before."
"What do you think Magneto wants with him?" Scott asked.
"I'm not entirely sure it's him Magneto wants."
Anakin sighed, rubbing his forehead in stress. "Things just fantastic."
