OK, I'm back, and a lot has happened. But I should start where I left off. After I got some water, Wolverine came and sat down to the left side of us. He ordered a beer and looked at the TV, which was showing something about the mutant registration act. He glanced at me, and I looked back at him. He then slowly looked at my silver fingernails. Noticing where his stare went, I quickly hid my hands in my lap. He raised an eyebrow.
We both knew that we were mutants. Rogue was glancing at both of us, now understanding that she was not the only mutant in the room. It was kind of like Logan and I were her parent, and she was the kid.
"Hey, you owe me some money," the guy who Logan had beaten up said to him, touching him on the shoulder.
I glared at him, stiffening. "He beat you fairly, so just back off and shut up," I snapped, now dark eyes flashing. I had changed my appearance to longer, straight dark brown hair and nearly black eyes. My clothes were black.
I had decided then and there to become known as Dark Angel.
The man glared at me. "You keep outta this, sweetheart," he growled, before turning to Logan, who hadn't moved.
Poor Rogue was just staring at me, scared. "Look out!" She screamed, as the man pulled out a knife towards Logan.
Before any of us knew what had happened, the man was against the wall with Logan's claws right in his face, the knife was being held in the air by moi, and the bartender had brought up a gun to the back of Logan's head.
"Get outta my bar, freak," he said, not noticing the knife. I quickly held out my hand, telepathically grabbed the gun and pointed it at the man, who now had three different threats pointing at him. The bartender stared at me, as did Rogue and Logan.
Logan looked from the man to Rogue and me before snarling, putting his claws back in, and walking out of the bar. I dropped the knife and gun, looked at Rogue, who stared at me wide-eyed, and ran after Logan. I knew that Marie was following me.
"Excuse me!" she called out hestiantly, as we entered the parking lot. I turned around. She came forward slowly, her duffel bag clenched in one hand. "I thought you might help me," she continued.
I smiled faintly. "You're not the only one who's different," I quietly told her. "But I don't have any vehicle. Let's hitch. Come on, I've got a few tricks up my sleeve." We quickly jumped into the back of Logan's trailer and pulled the blanket over us.
What had I gotten myself into this time?
