A Tale of Mischief and Mutants

Sam's Father?

—-Logan—-

As I come back into consciousness my ears are ringing from the impact. I look around in a daze I'm trying to figure out what the hell happened. I struggle to get up but I'm pinned down by something. I can see Loki over Sam's limp body. I try even harder to get up. I had stabbed him and now she was hurt. Had he forced her to take it?

Loki stands up and starts making a panicked phone call. When he's done he does something I hadn't expected he pulls her unconscious body close and begins sobbing. 'What the hell?' The god looks completely distraught.

Was this all a show and if so what good would it do for Loki? The ringing in my ears stops and I can hear him now. It reminds me of my own cries when Jean died. 'Is she dead?!' I have to find out I look down at whatever it is holding me down. 'God damnit!' Mjölnir is pinning me to the ground. I stop trying to get up. Loki is probably the last person I want to be talking to but I have to know if she's alive.

"Bub, is she breathing?"

He stops seeming confused for a moment then seems to remember me pinned on the ground.

"You're alive?"

"Yeah, I heal fast. Is she alive?"

He nods. I'm relieved. Loki's tied Sam's sweater tightly around her waist to try to stop the bleeding I can hear sirens in the distance. He had called for help. The ambulance gets here and Sam's loaded on. The paramedics look at me but give up when they see Mjölnir on top of me Loki gets into the ambulance with them and I'm left alone.

——————————————————————

Hours later I'm still pinned to the ground. Thor appears in the garden he's got his axe. Great, if Loki's got this town under his thumb I'm probably about to get my head chopped off. Thor comes over to me and looks down at me.

"You know Lady Sam?"

"What's it to you?"

"You tried to kill my brother."

Thor seems genuinely angry. I stop for a moment if everything that S.H.I.E.L.D had said was actually true this didn't look good for me.

"And he's keeping my kid here!"

Thor seems to think for a second.

"What is your name?"

"Why do you need to know?"

He sighs in exasperation with me being difficult I'm not one to roll over 'specially when I'm this pissed off... and worried. I feel a pang of guilt whatever's going on doesn't change the fact that Sam's hurt because of my temper... she has to be alright I can't loose her again after just getting her back.

"If you wish to see Sam I suggest you cooperate."

"Was that a threat?!"

"If that's what you make of it."

I sigh arguing with this guy will get me nowhere I need to see Sam.

"Logan."

"No, your full name."

I growl I don't see the point of this Sam could be dying right now.

"James Howlett."

"So you are Lady Sam's father?"

"In a way."

Sam had taken my last name when she decided she was going to cut off any association with the family that rejected her. She does see me that way and I guess some part of me feels the same way about her. Thor bends down and grasps Mjölnir.

"I'm going to take this off of you but if you start fighting I will set it right back on top of you."

I nod. He lifts the hammer off of me.

"Let us go to the hospital. Sam will be wanting to see you."
