Now COMPLETE!!! :-D The X-team, including Rogue, liberate a mutant lab and find our favorite feral...

Okay, that's not much of a summary, so here's an excerpt to give you a feel:

She held out her hand, palm up, and for a second time seemed to stop. The man narrowed his gaze on her hand, and then again on her eyes. He took one shuffling step forward, and she concentrated on keeping her body loose, letting no tension show in her posture. The sudden /snick/ as the claws retracted startled her, but she managed not to jump. He watched her closely, reaching toward her hand. Suddenly he grabbed it, and for a second she thought he was going to bite her palm. But he just took a deep inhale, smelling her scent and then looking back at her eyes, assessing. She thought she saw a slight lessening of the tension in his posture after this strange ritual, but either way they were out of time.

I have to say, even though this is not the last chapter, I have loved every moment of this story.

You have an amazing talent that I could only hope to have a quarter of. You can make people envision the scene you are describing. There are many great authors in the world but very few who truly have that ability.

I look forward to reading many more stories from you.

Author's Response: Thank you so much for your review, and for the compliments, Melody! I know compared to some of my faves on this site I\'m a league below, but I\'ve definitely learned a lot from the first real non-scientific writing I\'ve done in about a decade! ;-)

i am crying on the inside. I knew this day would come, even hoped for it, but now my heart is heavy with sadness.

One of my favorite stories is over. True I can always go back and re-read it time and time again. But its just not the same.

I really loved this chapter, especially the mental game she plays with Scott.

I seriously hope you are writing another story as I am writing this review.

Author's Response: Aw, you are so sweet! I\'m so glad you liked the story, and this chapter. I was worried that it would seem odd that Marie would access powers for such a frivolous purpose, but I couldn\'t resist getting back at Scott a little. And in my thinking, having Logan in her head makes it easier to keep the other personalities in line. I can see him being a bit of a take-charge kind of guy. I don\'t know about another story, but I had no idea I would write the ones I wrote until they started keeping me up at night, so you never know!

It went against his instincts

i like it. at first, i thought so boy i hope this isn't some fic about him throwing rocks at her window.

like the way it ends with her throwing the pebbles at him.

Author's Response: Haha, no I don\'t think Logan is the throwing rocks at a window type. He\'s more of a bust down the damn door time, right? That\'s why we love him. That & the body. Can\'t forget the body. *Drools*. Thanks for the review!

Marie's chasing her demons, Logan's chasing her. Things get angsty.

so, now i'm curious as to who she absorbed.

I love this story. Even though it is short, it packs a big punch.

Author's Response: I left that open to interpretation. Could be Carol or just some random mutant, whatever works for your imagination. I just wanted to focus on the instability, the idea that regardless of who she absorbs it\'s still a crapshoot as to whether she\'s going to come out of it in one piece or not. Thank you for reviewing, it\'s made me smile for the past few days :)
