Team Obliteration : The Destruction Cube

Chapter 7

Cassandra's P.O.V.

Cassandra stood over Logan, her arms folded across her chest.

They were in the infirmary. Alexandra was busy attending to all the others who needed help. It was the day after the attack and most of the children had already been sent home.

She watched Logan slowly began to heal. She wondered what it would be like to be able to heal. No more goddamn scars, sometimes no more pain, but Logan had told her that he could still feel pain, so...

Almost everyone in the team had a healing factor. Logan, Jayla, Deadpool and Slendy could all heal.

The only odd ones out were herself and Alex.

She wondered if it was a pain in the butt sometimes, healing so fast. But what troubles could it cause? Maybe people throwing knives at you for the fun of it cause they knew that you would wake up, but still, that would be pretty cool.

At least Alex and Cass could fly. That was something the others couldn't do. She guessed that it was enough to make up for the fact that neither of them had a healing factor.

Logan began to stir.

"Unh..." he grunted. "Where am I...?"

Suddenly he shot up and glanced around him wildly. His claws shot out, and her gripped the mattress tightly. Cassie raised an eyebrow at him calmly. He looked at her, panicked.

"The other X-Men?"

Cassie nodded and gestured behind her with her thumb. He relaxed a little, and his claws slowly slid back into his knuckles.

"How did they...?"

She cleared her throat and began recounting what had happened. "Well, when the explosion happened, Kitty grabbed hold of whoever she could, Iceman also built a shield of sorts out of ice, and the two rushed to the mansion with whoever they got. Alexandra went back and got the rest, who were either about to be or already unconscious. Storm and Cyclops weren't really affected, since they were near the mansion. The Professor was with them." She coughed, and some blue smoke came from her mouth. Logan had a questioning look on his face.

"Sorry," she said. "I'm not a fire-breathing dragon. I must've inhaled something when I was trying to put out the fire."

Logan seemed to understand.

"So, as I was saying, we went back into the mansion and assumed everyone was safe. But I kind of had a hunch that someone was missing. So we stood around for a while, looking around. I was just talking to Alex when she was like 'LOGAAANNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!' and then she took off running, or rather flying, right out the door. I thought her obsession with you was going overboard until I realized what happened."

Logan raised a suspicious eyebrow with a smirk. "Obsession?"

"Uh..." stammered Cassie. Ohmigosh what did I just say? "Just... So anyways she dragged you back in the mansion and complained that you were heavy and we inspected you and then I put out the fire while she brought you here," Cassie rushed on, trying her best to avoid Logan's question. He still had his eyebrow raised suspiciously.

"Okay then..." he said.

Cassie was just about to say something when Alex flew up to both of them. "Oh hey, you're awake!" she said to Logan. "Good, good... But I think if we are all ready we should really really go and check out the bomb outside. Both Storm and Cyclops are already out there."

"Right," said Logan as he got up. "Let's go."

Cassie and Alex began flying out as Logan walked on foot.
