Medic snarled. ”If I could she’d be healed by now.” but he kept trying. It was tireing, and he was thankful when the young woman came to help. Though she had to reach out to touch the girl, and the anger on HER face was enough to show that she wouldn’t let this happen again if she could help it.
Victoria watched Wolverine and the other’s with him move off. Good. Get the girl out. With a snarl she turned towards the rest of the base. Markus followed the group, but Richard came up beside her. He watched her as she blasted the rest of the building’s to their foundations (and lower if need be). There will be nothing for them to use. she explained, in a rather dead voice. Richard had a feeling she was going to be cold for the next few days. Joy.
When she finished the two of them headed back. He was normal now, but she was still on fire. Anger, and frustration, and annoyance all tangled up. Not to mention bloodlust, and the love of the fight. She wasn’t able to calm down by the time they got to the jet. Everyone was one, but them. ”Tor. You’ve got to calm down. I’d rather not have to contain you pissed off.” came Richard’s voice as he grabbed her shoulder. She turned glaring at him, then her eyes closed, and the fire went out. Well the literal fire. For now. She moved back on board the jet, strapped in and sat there, ignoring the pain from her shoulder. Where the hell did she get that one? It didn’t matter. It would heal. Slowly yes, but it would heal.
The ride back was smooth. And a little slow, but it needed to be. When the jet landed, she got off of it quickly and went for the helicopter. The trip to the base was quick, and the entire group was nursing wounds. The sun was rising as the helicopters landed, and she and everyone else was exacusted. ”Logan. I’ve already sent a message to Storm. I think once we’ve got her fully healed we can transfer her to the X-Men. We know almost nothing about Telepaths. It would probably be better if at least one person she probably senced at the raid, was there.” she was tired and it showed.
A middle aged woman came up to her and started to speak calmly. ”Captain. I know you got hurt. We need to check it out.” She sighed at the blonde woman. ”Right. Well see ya around wolverine.” with that she turned and walked with the woman. She didn’t really care what Logan did right then, and she just really wanted to sleep

Logan filed onto the jet after the battle. The whole facility was in smoking ruins and that made him happy. While the jet prepared for take off, he used one of his claws to dig the bullets out of his arm. He hissed outwardly at the severe pain, but it only lasted until the bullets hit the jet's floor. The pain began to ebb as he accepted a towel from one of the others and mopped up the most blood he could. The bullet wounds would remain for a few more hours, but most of his other cuts were already sealed.
After he had cleaned up as well as he could, he drew in a deep breath, scenting to assess the others injuries. Most had been treated by the minor healer, but one stuck out as still fresh. He sniffed again. He was sure that Tori was the one who was still wounded, along with the girl. He looked over at her, wrapped in a blanket and strapped to a seat. He could still see the flickering sheild over her skin, and he was impressed. It was pretty impressive for someone who was unconsious to maintain that strong of a shield...He sighed and meditated for the rest of the journey.
When they reached the Base, Logan listened to Tori's instructions. He nodded and she walked off to get her wound tended. He turned to Richard. "I will be back in a day or so. I am not sure that we are equiped to deal with an insane telepath at the moment. It might be safer for everyone to hold her here, atleast until we check our mutant holding cells."[/font]

Richard nodded. ”Alright. And you letter should be there by tomorrow. Don’t know how much we’ll be doing for the next few days, beyond watching her. I think we all went a bit far out tonight.” he shook his head. ”Fire is easy to catch on to. Anyways, speak with you later.” with that he to headed farther into the complex.
---- A Few Days Later ----
Tori was out and about. Well kind of. She was healed, and yet the emotional scars were still there. She was colder than normal, more willing to snap out, but less emotional. She hated herself for her anger, but at the same time she knew it could be no other way. She moved in a half haze. As if she’d done something wrong… but she hadn’t. Or had she? She’d spoken with the President, and he’d told her she’d done the right thing, but was he right?
She’d spent the last few days like this. Unable to snap out of it. The last time she’d felt that kind of anger was ten years ago, and it had caused her to faint. Which had helped her cope. But there was no sleeping here. Work, and more work. Keeping the new mutant under control. Not letting everyone see her delema. She was tired. So tired. And it wasn’t a physical thing. Her body made sure of that. No it was a mental and emotional thing. And still the brother hood hadn’t done anything, which wasn’t helping her stress level at all.

Logan walked into the complex, a specfic thing on his mind. His acceptance letter had arrived a few days ago, but he had not heard from Tori at all. He had come to the complex to finish up the paper work and spoke with Richard. He had said that Tori was very ill-tempered and was not really speaking with anyone.
Thats why Logan was there today. He wanted to speak with Tori and give her a person to vent to. He would heal(eventually) anything that she could do to him, so he was willing to take her on. He found her scent and began tracking it through the complex. He nodded at many people that he passed, but he was on a mission.
He soon found her in one of the complexes many halls. He paused a moment to gather his will and stepped out infront of her. "Hello, Captain. How are you feeling?" He mentally prepared himself for pain and a whiplash answer. He stood, gazing at her cooly as he waited for the fiery and venom-coated responce.

Her reaction was to step back. Damn. ”None of your business, Howlet.” she snapped, and turned walking the other direction. Really? Really? What did he want? Hm? And what reason did he have for finding her? ”And before you say something about noticing that something’s off I’d like to mention that it’s not a new recrute’s JOB to come find the top CO and start asking personal questions.” she snarled, knowing he’d follow. It wasn’t like she was going to out run him, but she sure as hell wasn’t going to let him get ahead of her.
She continued walking, heading for the outside of the building. At least there she could feel a little less enclosed. And pluss if she did blow up it wouldn’t do as much damage. (it’s happened). She stepped outside and noticed that it was in a cross betweent he backs of four buildings. Interesting. She didn’t really care but still. What did he want. She stopped for a second deciding which way, and went right, not caring if he followed.

Wolverine took the insult in stride and just began to follow her. He knew that he could get in a load of trouble, now that he was under her power(sort of) but he knew he was too valuable an asset to get rid of."You know, Victoria, your making a lot of people around here nervous."
He followed closely through the complex. He knew he could get her to vent sometimes. And since they were now outside, there would be less colateral damage if she actually blew up. He followed her to the right and listened. There was no one around, so now was the time to use the spark to set off the bomb."I know your not feeling good about what happened during the rescue...I feel guilty about the lives taken at my claws too. I live by a code of honor..and I broke it that day..." His eyes never left her back, hoping to have a chance to escape if she literally blew up.

She rolled her eyes. ”Says the man who terrify’s everyone by just walking into a room.” she muttered as she continued walking. She came to the outerfence, and stopped as the guard looked her over. She waited. She knew they were nervous. And she didn’t care. She stepped through, motioning to let them let Wolverin through if he wanted to follow. Now she was in the middle of the forest. Being that the base was situaited in the middle of the forests of new york. Though it was more cherry trees and such. It was the end of spring so everything was loosing it’s flowers. Though it still smelt good.
She didn’t react as he spoke. ”Yes but you’re not a leader of a large regiment of Mutants.” her voice was that dead sounding, like when she’d ordered everyone to get out. She stopped by the fence, she ignored him. She should be able to control her anger better. She knew what had really set her off. It was the fact that there were Mutant’s working on doing this to other mutants. She couldn’t really wrap her head around that. How could they? What was the point? Test your own self if your going to do that. She knew that with in it’selve wasn’t logical, but then again she didn’t always work on logic.

Logan heard her comment and grinned to himself. He had a dominent presence...she was just plain out scary from her temper. He liked people bein afraid of him, it discouraged them from talking to him. But with Victoria...and the others for that matter... he never wanted them to be afraid of him. He wanted to earn their trust and be accepted by them...It was a goal that would be hard to meet.
He followed Tori though the gate, nodding to the guards as he passed. Logan followed her into the forest and sniffed. The sweet smell of blossoms was calming, and he hoped that it would have an effect on Tori. "I am second in command at the Institute...and I have a major influence on the Mutant Youth. We are even there...So tell me what's wrong. What ever it is will continue to poison you until you tell someone..." He waited quietly, looking at the trees around them.

The woman glared at a tree. But she was in control. After all it takes a lot of anger to get her to do what she had done a few nights before. Then she had reasons, now… there was no reason to be angry. At least nothing bad enough to get her to blow up. And plus, she had no doubt Maria was some where close by so she could douse tori, again, if she did do anying stupid. She closed her eyes suddenly and took a breath. ”And why should that someone be you? I bairly know you, and most of what I do know is by files and hearsay. I’ve already told the people who need to know.” she snapped, glaring at him now.
”And it doesn’t matter. It’s stupid things. Naivety, as I was told by three different people. So really I have no reason to tell you.” she snapped again. She really needed to get over this. She closed her eyes turning away, and walking farther into the forest. Well what it was. She was still in shock essentially. She did have a big heart, which was why she had to have Richard, and the other’s. They could balance that. Well no. Markus was like her. Big heart, and dangerous. Itw as the other two that kept them sane. Richard was ruthless, and Maria didn’t care who she killed, as long as it was for the US. It was Markus and Tori who spoke reason at times, though Markus was hit, he just never showed it. Earth kept things to itself. Fire tented to bleed onto everything.

Logan followed her, thinking about their conversation. She may have told others, but she was still holding something back. She was fire itself, but even fire could be hurt... He jogged to catch up and walk beside her. "Your not naive...You are a fine intelegent woman..."
Logan's creature shoved him forwards, instructing him what to do. He did not want to take it this fast, but there was no other way to get her to listen. He put one arm around her and pulled her close, the other hand gently cradling her head. He leaned down and kissed her gently on the lips. It felt so good to finally do this, but he knew she would flame him if he did not get away fast enough.
Breaking the kiss, he whispered,"I care about you, Victoria. I have cared ever since I first set eyes on you. It kills me to see you hurting...so please...Tell me what's wrong..." He realised her and took a step back, watching for her reaction. The creature was happy now, but Logan was a bit unsure if her took this too fast. It did not matter though. He would continue to vie for her affection until the Final Day... Fore they both had eternity to live.

His words seemed to bounce off. Of course she was nieve. To think that Mutant’s could be decent. Even the Brotherhood didn’t stoop that low. At least as far as she knew. Sure they used mutants, but tests? Like that? Never. She just kept moving as he caught up. Intelligent? Sure. In someone’s day dream maybe.
Then he pulled her close and kissed her. What the hell? She pulled away just as he moved away, not sure what the hell was going on, and it showed a bit, as she did start to flame, thogh mainly in her hands. Surprise, though no attacking. She staired at him as if he was insane. Which he was, but that was beside the point. ”Why?” like I said Intelligent? No. Stunned? Yes. It was frustraition and herself not really understanding. Why did he care about her? Why? How did she become important to him? She shook her head trying to comprehend ,then the last part of his words came through. ”Nievity. The beliefe that Mutant’s might not be as bad as human’s that think tests are ok if you’re a mutant. Stupidity because we have the same brain, same kind of thoughts.” she glared at the ground in her anger. ”Because even the Brotherhood won’t stoop so low as to test other mutants. And they are trying to get rid of humans and STILL they are… not that low.” no tears, but anger, frustraition, sadness, because though she knew, she didn’t want to believe it.

Logan was ready to take the fire as it appeared in her hands. He would take the pain...for her... She needed to realise her anger, and he felt he was the only candidate. He was the only one who wanted to understand her...Wanted to love and be loved by her. He wanted be the shoulder she could lean on... He wanted to hand the leash of his creature to her...he just...wanted...
He listened carfully to what she was saying and tought carfully about his responce. A small part of his mind was happy that she had not rejected his kiss...but the larger part was focused on the delema at hand. He took a step towards her again, carefully, before speaking, " We are all stupid and naieve... Thats what makes us what we are. We are instinctually wired to hate things that arn't like us... and test to find logical answers to the things we hate... And sometimes that means hurting others...including us." He paused for a moment before continuing. He wished that the Brotherhood did not exsist, because they hurt the cause they as mutants were fighting for...
He began to speak again after a moments thought, "One twisted mind can have the power to control others...even the strongest can be ruled by fear... I have a feeling that that is the case here...I spoke with Medic about what happened...He said that as soon as the head scientist disappeared, the scientists freaked and tried to run. My insticts say that that head-woman is the twisted one...and she used fear to rule the minds of those mutants...I don't thing they did not do this willingly." Logan paused, looking to see if anything he was saying was getting through.

The woman shut the fire off, just as quickly as she called it. There were other ways to deal with it. She’d learned those quick after her exploding the building at thirteen. Same year she found out that she couldn’t die. At least for long. She took another breath. Keep moving. Then he spoke again. ”Again why? What is the point of finding logic to things that aren’t? Mutants have been through out all history. Angels? Mutants. Roman gods? Mutants. Why can’t the humans get used to us?” it was a frustration that she’d always had. Why was there such hatred towards her? Towards everyone else like her. Most of them fighting for them. Not against.
She did listen, if only because she was trying to figure him out. Why her? She frowned. ”I didn’t even notice. I was… Focased.” understatement of the century but still, ti was true. Someone had to die. ”So the teleporter died for nothing.” she snapped, discust filling her voice. Joy another death she could count on her hands. She was glad there was a tree behind her. She leaned against it closing her eyes, remembering quite clearly what had happened. If only she’d gone for the other woman. Dammit.

Logan listened and fomulated his answer with care. He slowly approached her, now that the fire was gone. She was feeling...so many feelings...her scent was so mixed that Logan could not find one to tag onto. SO he went with a calming tone as che closed in on her.
Logan got within arms reach and gently cupped a hand around her cheek. His voice was soothing...but serious..."Tori...They can't get used to us...because they fear us... We overpower them...The anchient greek mutants: proclaimed gods for their power. Angels: given satus for their power over humans to do good. I hope that they can get used to us...but that might take a long time...and we can work till the end of time to make it happen..."
The mand came in close again to brush his lips across her check before continuing."You did what you thought was right... and no...she did not die for nothing...You freed her from her imprisonment... You gave her an honorable escape from her slavery... Sweetling..." Logans voice faded as he kissed Tori again, this time adding a bit more heat to the kiss. He waited for a few seconds before breaking the kiss and whispering,"That focus and drive to do whats right is what made me care for you."

Tori’s breath caught when he touched her. She forced herself to breath again. What was he doing? Why? Always the why. He was speaking. She listened carefully, even if she was having trouble thinking fully. There was a reason she was the captain of the SMMO. She could hear his words, and the meaning behind them. Did he really mean that. Until the end of time? She searched in his eyes for the answer. Almost unsure she wanted to know it.
Her eyes flitted closed for a second as his lips brushed her cheek. She tried to relax herself a bit. Then he kissed her. This time she leaned into it, into him. She hadn’t realized she needed that kind of support until she had it. She didn’t speak but watched him, unsure what to do next, and feeling… weak. She wasn’t used to being the one being comforted. The other men she’d.. been close to had always ended up being the one’s needing comforting, and Richard, Markus and Maria weren’t to keen on the hugging. In their own way. Albert and Logan were similar. She closed her eyes and leaned against him, shaking slightly.
