Bobby turned to Kitty with a confused look upon his face, "She said her name was Cora.... but if I didn't know better.....I'd think she was...you know......"
Peter approached the two, "Turned down Bobby? Haha, well, better luck next time...."
Bobby looked at him meekly, "She looked like... well... she looked like Jean."
Peter raised an eyebrow. "Now... come on.... I don't..."
"Kitty saw her too!" Bobby interjected, "Didn't you Kitty?"

[Hahahaha! I DID call him James. Whoops. I changed it. ]

Scott sighed deeply and then slowly stood up from where he had been sitting alone all morning. The students there at the school were all somewhat scared of coming near him, since they knew the situation he had been in and still was in.

Looking around the den, he slowly started walking out of it. He needed to go outside to get some fresh air; walking right past Peter, Kitty and Bobby.

[Marie will just still be doing her homework.]

Cora sighed and laid on her bed, slowly she started to float. Closeing here eyes she pictured the man she saw. She frowned, what had made him so sad. He was accepted, where as until now, she never had been. Floating back down she stepped out of her room, and walked down the hall to where she had first meet the boy Bobby.

A bead of sweat, trickled down the the man known only as Logan's face. He stood, hunched over. His claws extended and he let out a loud primal roar and lunged towards his taller, but equally feral opponent.

"Come on short stuff" the taller man said, his voice sneering at Logan
"Show me whatcha got"

The pair collided with heavy force, both men tumbling to the cold tundra below there feet. Logan gained the upper hand, making slices, cuts and punctures on the taller mans head and body. His eyes ablaze with rage and fury. He felt no remorse, no mercy towards his opponent. Logan was truly cutting loose his feral, berserker side and he was loving every second of it. A huge malicious grin spread wide across his face

"So, Bub. That all you got?" and made another lunge with a clawed hand.

The man let out a raucous laugh, with each stab that Logan made to him. It was almost as if he had a deathwish.
"You never learn Shorty!"

"I really wish this was the real thing Creed" Logan muttered, breathing heavily "Computer...End simulation" he barked to no-one.

Slowly the cold Canadian landscape began to melt away, leaving only a cold sterile and very large metallic room. His claws sliding back into his knuckles. "I need a drink" he mumbled as he walked out of the Danger Room and towards his living quarters.

[Dude, Phoenix! That was an awesome post for Logan! ]

Marie slowly closed her book that she was studying out of and decided to take a break. She tucked the blonde part of her hair behind her pierced ear and casually walked out of her room and down the hall.

As usual, she was wearing her leather gloves so that she wouldn't hurt anyone. She hated the fact that she wasn't able to touch anyone. That's why she couldn't fall in love with any man... especially a normal one.

She sighed deeply and looked up from the ground, seeing Logan. She smiled weakly to him and stopped walking just so she could say hi to him. He was the closest mutant to her there at the mansion. "Hey, Logan." She said softly.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scott made it to the front door of the mansion and then walked outside. He went a little to the side on the front lawn and sat down on a wooden bench that was surrounded by gorgeous trees and multi-colored flowers. This place always put him at peace.

(( thank you. I had to re-read it, as I don't even remember much about writing it. It just seemed to appear lol))

Logan cracked his neck and looked over as he heard the familiar Southern drawl of Rogue.
"Hey kid, whatcha up to?" he asked her, softening his posture and voice after his brutal Danger Room work out with Sabretooth.

Cora walked outside, not really noticing Bobby and the other who were with him. Outside she looked up at the sky and started to float a little. That was something she loved doing, flying, the feeling made her feel so free. Unfortually she didn't see the big potted plant and knocked of the railing toward the ground. Upon instinct she curse and stopped it from hitting the ground with her third power.

Marie smiled a little more to Logan and then sighed a bit. "I was just studying for my college final. What about you? You look like you were just training." She said to him softly and looked him over a bit, before looking back up to his face.

Marie had always liked Logan as more than a friend, but after all this time that they had spent together in the past few years, she didn't know if she should tell him or not. She didn't want to lose him as a friend.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scott sighed deeply and then heard someone curse from a bit away. He slowly looked over to where the voice had come from and had to take a second look, because he had thought that it was Jean. He shook his head a bit and tried to clear his head.

((I take it Rogues powers have returned?))

"Yeah" Logan replied, sticking his hands into the pockets of his faded blue denims. "After everything that's happened lately, I just needed to let loose for a bit." he pulled out a half smoked cigar from his pocket and a zippo lighter from the other and put the cigar to his lips, lighting it and taking a long, deep inhalation. Savouring every moment of it

"So College finals huh?" he smiled at her "Always knew you were a smart kid Rogue"

_________________

[Yeah, they have sadly... haha]

Marie smiled back to Logan and nodded to him. "Yeah, it's hard to believe that I'm almost done with college." She said to him softly and rested her hands on her hips.

She took in a deep breath and then watched him as he smoked on his cigar. She took a deep breath and then tucked some more hair behind her ear.

((No, no. I was a little irked that Rogue took the cure in the movie. So this is a good thing ))

"So where you going now?" Logan asked, making conversation with his young friend before taking another draw on his stogie and wiping some leftover sweat residue on his forehead with the other.

Cora slowly brought the plant back up and placed it in its spot. She looked around, hoping no one saw, but blushed as soon as she saw Scott. "Sorry you had to see that." She said. "Sometimes I let myt mind wander and I bump into things. Good thing I was able to stopp it from hitting the ground, right?" She said feeeling embaresed.

Marie shrugged a bit to Logan and sighed. "I was about to get something to eat and maybe drink. I'm tired of studying right now, because I've been doing it since about 10:00 this morning." She said to him softly and then smiled a bit. "Wanna join me when you clean up?" She added.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scott slowly nodded a bit to Cora and then shook his head a little more. "Sorry that I'm staring... I just thought that you were someone else for a second." He told her softly and then looked straight ahead.

Cora nodded and sat next to him. "Want to talk about it?"

Scott sighed deeply and shook his head a bit to Cora. "No, it's okay. I'd rather not, because it's a hard thing to talk about for me." He said to her softly and then looked back to her. "Who are you, by the way? I've never seen you around here before..."
