The heavy steel door creaked open, and Magneto emerged first, his tall figure cloaked in a dark, billowing cape. Behind him, Toad and Sabertooth moved with purpose, carrying an unconscious Rogue bundled inside a body bag (i think). The bag sagged slightly under her weightBut the moment they stepped outside, their vision was flooded with the piercing lights of police cruisers, their red and blue strobes cutting through the darkness
Dozens of officers stood in a tight formation, guns drawn and aimed directly at Magneto and his gang. The tension was palpable
Magneto nearly obliterated an entire squad of police, but Charles intervened just in time, using his powers to incapacitate Erik's allies
Still, Erik managed to slip away, not only with his intended target. Needless to say, Logan and the others were not pleased
Back at the mansion
You were sitting on the bed while Logan was in the bathroom. He looked so frustrated and mad when he bursted into your guises room
You didn't want to ask him what happened, not wanting to anger him even more, but you were definitely super curious about what happened
And when professor x and Oror came in you were even more curious, a bit worried at the same time actually
Logan splashed cold water on his face, the sharp sting snapping him into focus. He grabbed a towel, wiping his face briskly, then turned to professor X that was in the room
His gaze locked onto him, unyielding. "You said he was after me." His voice was low, tense. Without breaking eye contact, Logan reached for his jacket draped over the chair, shrugging it on as Charles began to speak
"I made a terrible mistake. His helmet was somehow designed to block my telepathy. I couldn't see what he was after till it was too late" His words did nothing to improve Logan's mood
Logan shoved past them, heading for the door. Ororo, concerned, asked, "Where are you going?"
"im gonna find her" Logan stated "how?" Charles asked "The traditional way. Look" Logan said, almost rolling his eyes
Charles sighed as he saw the two walk out of the room. "so...uhmm, what happened?" you asked
Charles turned his head to look at you, his expression tinged with a mixture of regret and concern. "A few days ago, I made a promise to Logan... about several things," he said, his voice heavy with the weight of unspoken thoughts
He sighed deeply before continuing, "Rogue was taken by Magneto today as well"
Your eyes widened and his mouth formed a small 'o' "Oooohhhh, so that's why he had the 'I asked for no pickles' face.."
In the hallway
Ororo followed him out of the room. "Logan, you can't do this alone." She insisted, following closely behind him
"Who's gonna help me? You? So far you've all done a bang-up job." Logan insulted Ororo to her face, not really giving a fuck
"Then help us. Fight with us." Ororo was starting to sound a little annoyed with Logan, as she should
At that, Logan stopped in his tracks and turned to face her. "Fight with you? What, join the team? Be an X-Man? Who the hell do you think you are? You're amutant. The whole world out there is full of people that hate and fear you, and you're wasting your time tryin' to protect 'em? I got better things to do."
Logan turned and took a few steps away before turning back to add something. "You know, Magento's right There's a war coming. You sure you're on the right side?"
"At least I've chosen a side," Ororo answered, to which Logan turned towards the door to leave, but when he opened the door, he saw a man standing there, out of breath and soaking wet
