Chapter 18 - Logan

I wake up two days later. The first thing I do is head down to the kitchen to get something to eat, then I head to Patricia's office.

"Good morning sister dear, how are things going this fine day? So will I be training or will I be teaching? And no I don't need to rest anymore, I need to have something to do."

"I wasn't going to argue with you. I would say you can train as well as teach. Since you left three years ago I have done a little remodeling. I think you will like the changes. Would you like to take a tour before you decide where you want to go?"

"Well since you put it that way I believe a tour will be perfect."

Patricia took Logan through the whole house. They started at the bottom and worked their way up. She showed him the car park under the house first. She showed him where his motorcycle has been parked for the last three years waiting for him. Then they went up one floor to the training rooms. There were eight in all. Logan liked these rooms, they were state of the art. He liked the idea of the holographic enemy tactic Patricia was using. Then they went up to the next two floors. They were the class rooms. Logan recognizes these rooms. He has both taught and learned in them. The next floor up is the hospital wing. There are two operating rooms, five recovery rooms, two bathrooms, a lounge, an x-ray room, and a cat scan room. Then she took him back up to the rest of the house. There were four floors with a total of fourty-five bedrooms, ten offices, a library on each floor, and bathrooms in each bedrooms. Finally they went up to the attic. It spanned the length of the house and it held extra supplies of all kinds. Then they went outside and they looked at the tennis court, the basketball court, the pool, the football field, and the track. Once they were done they went back to Patricia's office.

"So what do you think Logan? What would you like to do?"

"I think I would like to teach. But I don't want a classroom, I want to do the hands on teaching in the war rooms. Who are your other teacher's?"

"Well I am okay with the hands on classes. And if you want I can introduce you to out other teacher's as well as our doctor."

"Okay let's do that. Where will we find the teacher's at?"

"Well we have to go back outside. The teacher's lounge is the house on the other side of the pool. It used to be the guest house."

So they head over to the teacher's house. Logan sees that it is a smaller version of the main house. It is only a single story house but it is shaped like the big one. They walk inside and see four teacher's sitting in the front room.

"Good morning everyone, I would like you all to meet my brother Logan. He will be teaching in the war rooms, hands on and tactical fighting. Logan you know Hank, he is still teaching history and science as well as teaching the physical side of telekenetic power. This is Alora, she is teaching math and all things weather when it comes to powers. This is Adrianna she is our doctor as well as our resident telepath. This is her husband Scott, he teaches mechanical or auto shop as well as p.e. Logan is a telepath as well as telekenetic and he can heal himself rather quickly. He just got back from Germany two days ago and wants to help the kids."

Everyone says hello and they talk a little about what to expect for the day. Then they all head to the main house to start their day.

The first day pasted quickly for Logan. He met several of the students on the first day. He found them some what snobbish, until the group for the last class of the day came in. He was struck dumb when he saw the last two student. He quickly looked at his list of names and that's when he was looking at Natasha's twin and cousin. He decided right then that he would protect them like she did him.

At the end of class he went to Patricia's office to give her his overview of the day.

"Why do you always find the snobby kids? They all act like they are better than others. Do they all come from rich family's? There are only seven students I like, the two boys broom my first period class, Mike and Jonny. The three girls from my fourth period class, Amy is to quiet. Tabitha, and Edith are good kids to. Then there are two girls in my last period. Amanda and Janet are both hard workers. But they seem so sad. Did you choose these kids because tragedy brought out their gifts?"

"Well to be honest for all but Janet and Amanda yes I chose them because their gifts emerged due to tragedy. Amanda and Janet were born with their gift but because their father was crazy they hid them as much as possible. Then once they became ward's of the state the women who ran the orphanage tried to use them but the eldest sister sacrificed herself to protect them. Once I found them I brought them here to protect them. And to teach them they don't have to hide their gifts they need to let them grow and learn how to use them. Their mother was my friend and I owed her that much.

I know what you mean by the others being stuck up. I totally agree with that. Just try your best, and if you train the seven you like more than the rest I won't fault you on it. They do need more help than the others, I only ask that you at least try to teach everyone else control if nothing else. Do we have a deal?"

"Yes, I believe we have a deal. I will be honest I will only do the bare minimum with the other's. To be honest I don't want them to have more power than they have now. I will teach them all control and shielding no mater what."

"Thank you Logan, I can only ask so much. Now. I need to talk to you about a job I have for the teacher's. This weekend I need you all to go to Washington to save a couple of teenagers that are being held captive by a crazy circus owner because of their powers."

"I'm willing to do it, just tell me when I need to leave."

"Okay great, Now go get something to eat."

That started Logan's routine, during the week he trained the kids to use their powers better and on the weekends the teacher's went on missions to rescue children of all ages from adults who abuse them for their powers.

For three weeks Logan had no issues. It wasn't until he came back from a rescue mission in Florida with three boys that is world was turned upside down.
