Chapter Three

Logan approached Marie’s room carrying his beers in his hand.
As he got closer he could clearly hear her stereo blasting out music. Wincing at the noise level, it wasn’t till he got closer he smelled the blood, Marie’s blood.
Dropping his beers in the corridor he ran the rest of the way to Marie’s room.
He tried to open the door but it was locked!
Popping a single claw he sliced through the lock on her door and burst into the room.
Looking round frantically he couldn’t see her at first, till he looked in the bathroom.
He found Marie passed out on the floor, the blood he could smell was coming from a deep cut on her hand but that alone wouldn’t prompt for her to have passed out.
Taking his gloves from his back pocket, Logan tried to rouse Marie.
It was a no go, she wouldn’t wake up.
Picking her up gently Logan sent a thought to the Professor for help.
{What is it Logan, what is wrong?}
{Its Rogue, I found her out cold on her bathroom floor and I can’t wake her, I’m bringing her down to the med lab.}
{I will meet you there with our new school Doctor.} The Professor sent back.
Running from the room with Marie in his arms the lyrics of the song playing made Logan go cold inside.

I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
'Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

The Professor’s Study.

Turning his attention back to the large man in front of him, Charles addressed him. “We have a situation, one of the students is unconscious but I must warn you she has an extreme mutation, you will be unable to touch her with your bare skin.”
Rising from his seat Doctor Henry McCoy looked grim. “What will happen if I do?” he asked.
“She will suck the life from you along with your memories and mutation, there has been only one amongst us who has withstood her mutation and that man is Logan who is with Rogue down in the med lab.” The Professor told him as they exited the study and headed for the elevator.
Nodding thoughtfully to himself ‘Hank’ as he preferred to be called started going over in his mind what could be the cause of Rogue’s dilemma.

Logan had reached the med lab without incident, placing Marie down on one of the lab’s beds, he wondered if he should just touch her.
As he pulled of his glove he heard the Professor in his head.
{What are you doing Logan?}
{What do you think? I’m gonna touch her, she sick and I need her back with me in one piece}
Just as his hand was about to touch her face a voice rang out from behind him.
“Ahem, I hope you are not going to interfere with my treatment of this young lady I presume?”
Turning round Logan was surprised at the sight that greeted him.
The man who had spoken was larger than Logan and completely covered in blue fur and had fangs.
Logan started to growl at the interloper.
“Please refrain yourself my good man, I am a qualified doctor in six different fields of medicine and genetics, and I can also assure you that I will endeavour to get to the bottom of the young lady’s predicament.”
With that Hank pushed Logan away from Marie’s bed.
Charles Xavier wheeled his chair to the head of the bed and rested his hand on the top of Rogue’s head where he was made safe by her hair.
“Rogue has five separate and conflicting personalities living in her head at this moment in time and has problems keeping them confined in times of stress. I have been working closely with Rogue for some time now on controlling her mutation, but I must admit I have failed her. I have tried everything I can think of and still I haven’t had any success at helping her.” The grief and guilt were plain in the Professor’s face.
“What do ya mean ya can’t help her?” Logan snapped at Charles.
“If I could contain all the different personalities in her head she may be able to gain control of her skin. I have searched long and hard along with Rogue but as yet were unable to find the switch so to speak that will enable her control.” Charles bowed his head in defeat.
Logan walked up to his friend and placed his hand on his shoulder.
“Don’t beat yerself up about it, we’ll find away once Rogue wakes up.” With that he turned to the large man who was at this time taking a blood sample from Rogues arm. “I am hoping that a blood test may shed some light on to her predicament. If not I was hoping Charles that maybe you could go in and scan her mind, from the brief physical I have given Rogue I can find no physical reason to her remaining unconscious at this time.” Hank told the two men.
Logan pulled up a chair next to the bed and took Rogue’s hand in his gloved one. He was here to stay till his Marie woke up.

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me

You used to captivate me
By your resonating light
Now I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me
I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me

Deep inside Marie’s mind she was struggling back towards the light far ahead of her. Was Logan there?
As she reached towards the light and Logan again hands grabbed her and dragged her back deep into her own mind.

Logan leaned down towards Marie’s face whilst the Professor was busy with Hank and whispered to her “Come back to me Marie, I love you.”
