    Summary

    Most folks that passed through Laughlin’s nameless watering hole were an easy read. Bored, hungry, lonely, nobody set foot in a place like this without reason. Money was Logan’s, and why he was still here three nights past the none he’d planned on.

    This big guy here, equal parts muscle and fat getting up from the benches to the crowd’s raucous approval, he had something to prove. Chip on his shoulder the size of his shiny bald head. The one in the shadows, he’d taken Logan’s measure a long while back but far as Logan could tell, hadn’t laid a single bet. Didn’t look inclined to take him on, either. Seemed a hell of a lot of attention to pay somebody without a mind to do something about it.

    Chewing overlong on some stranger’s intent earned Logan a boot to the back of his knee and a slow spreading smile from the cause. The off-centre kick that followed drove him into rusty rattling metal. He hit the floor with a grunt. Served him right for getting too curious.

    Summary

    Logan picks a direction without thinking. Doesn’t know where he’s going or what he’s doing. It’s pure instinct to get away, get away.

    He drives for hours. Twice he stops only long enough to slosh gas in the tank. The wind can’t blow these cobweb memories free. They’re sticky and clinging, more determined to stay than they ever were to remain hidden.

     

    Bodies. Bright sunshine, lush maples, and naked bodies by the stream. Playful water, resonant laughter. Hands and mouths and —

    Summary

    In the months since Logan left the team, he hadn’t had much in the way of quiet. He zipped up his coat and flipped his collar against the bitter cold on his neck giving him the shivers.

    The tire was completely flat. Hunkering down, he frowned at the ragged edge. The fellas in charge of keeping the track clear of ice and snow wouldn’t have left behind anything that could tear through more than a half-inch of rubber.

    Some things, though, they hit a point and just gave.

    Summary

    When he’d left the city comforts behind along with the racket that had only lately begun to grate on his nerves, he hadn’t thought to expect company. Coming up on nearly two hundred years of knowing him better than he knew himself, it turned out Jimmy had a few surprises left in him after all.

    Kindling skittered across the brittle grass.

    He sank into the chore’s steady rhythm. The wind came up, teasing whitecaps on the lake. The source of that heady familiar scent was less than a mile off now and moving at a fair clip. Either Logan had grown less cautious since Victor last laid hands on him in the foothills of the Rockies or he had his mind set on a thing he didn’t have much patience left to do without.

    Whatever that might be, it promised to make for an entertaining evening.

    Summary

    Nostalgia is hell of a drug, a morphine drip when the world is trying to kill you.

    It’s funny, in a horrible way, the way the world is now. Victor was always curious to see what everyone would be like, with their fears bubbling to the surface, with their blood on their hands. Everyone would be dead, it turns out.

    Curiosity killed the cat, he thinks bitterly.

    The X-Men are dead. Logan was dead. He’s been dead for 552 days, give or take a few.

    He knows how Logan kills, though. He knows that animal. And it sounded like Logan, albeit more messy. It could be him. Logan was so hard to kill, just like him. He might be back.

    Victor missed his birthday last year. And this year.

    Standing up, Victor makes a decision. He’s always been good at finding Logan.

    (Logan 2017 but Victor Creed is there)
