X-MEN- CH-50. How does your sister look?
Added 2024-10-06 03:14:14 +0000 UTC"Haha, Logan, times have changed, and I've become stronger. It's normal to occasionally awaken one or two powerful abilities."
"What? Why do I still have these two abilities after all these years?"
"You're old, man."
"Bullshit, you're only two years younger than me."
"…"
"Okay, I'll go tell the boss, and then we'll be off."
Martin asked, "Where to?"
"California. John owns a boxing gym there. I just found out his whereabouts."
"Good."
Logan asked his boss for leave or resigned, leaving only Martin and Kayla.
"Can you tell me about your sister?"
Kayla glanced at Martin and asked, "Why are you asking about her?"
"Just curious. I learned from Stryker that your sister's name is Emma, and she has the ability to transform into diamond form. It just so happens that my girlfriend is also named Emma and has a diamond form."
"Really? Isn't your girlfriend... named Raven?" Kayla was just about to inquire about Emma when she suddenly remembered that Martin had mentioned his girlfriend's name earlier.
"Yeah... they all are."
Kayla looked at Martin with an unsure expression.
"Why? What's wrong?"
"No... I just didn't expect you..."
Martin said, "You misunderstood; they all know each other. We live together, and there are two other girls."
"Oh... you guys are really good at this." Kayla looked him up and down, as if she wanted to get to know Martin all over again.
"Okay, stop being curious about this and talk about Emma." Martin urged, feeling embarrassed by her stare.
"My sister... We weren't very close. We separated a long time ago and haven't been in touch since. Then Stryker found me..."
"Have you seen her?"
"Yes."
This time, we can be sure that this Emma is not the Emma at home. The Emma at home has always been in New York and comes back to live every now and then; she has never disappeared.
"Any pictures of her?" Martin asked.
"No, I was just taken to a place and took a look, and it was indeed her. Even though we have never been close, she is still my sister, so I had to find a way to save her."
"Hmm... Is Diamond Form her only ability?"
"Yes, I haven't heard of her having any other abilities."
"…"

It took two days for Martin and the others to arrive at the destination Logan mentioned. Kayla also came along. Logan was worried about leaving her alone at home, knowing that someone was watching them.
Last night during their rest period, Kayla encouraged Logan to rest early.
If he said "go," then they would go. Why was she watching Martin cautiously before leaving? Martin wouldn't go out with Logan for anything; at most, they would just drink. If it weren't for the fact that you are Logan's lover... haha...
"Logan, why are you here?" John looked at Logan and the others as they pushed the door open in surprise.
Because he couldn't stand what Stryker did, he and the others quit one after Logan did. However, because Stryker was too powerful, and Victor and Agent Zero were completely Stryker's lackeys, he does not associate with people he knew before, to avoid being silenced.
Later, "Meatball" Fred also came here, but the high pressure made him obsessed with food and suffer from bulimia. The two opened a boxing gym here to make a living.
He had only contacted Logan a few times, because of his years of work experience, he believed that Logan would not do anything to harm him. Moreover, Logan was tired of a life filled with gunfire and bullets, so it was impossible for him to cause trouble. He had told John about his experience.
He never expected that Logan would come to his door one day.
"Let me ask you something." Logan introduced Martin and Kayla to John while looking at the boxing practice ground nearby.
"Okay, let's talk in the office."
Several people went to John's office on the second floor. Logan stood by the window and watched the boxing scene outside.
"What's the matter?" John asked.
"I want to know what you did while I was gone." Logan said.
"No, no, Logan... we didn't do anything; we just kept doing what we used to do together."
"Really?"
Seeing Logan's skeptical expression, John thought for a moment and said, "After you left, Stryker and his men became more and more excessive. Before long, we started arresting people everywhere."
"Arresting who?"
"Our kind."
"…"
Logan asked with a glimmer of curiosity, "Where's Victor?"
"He is the most loyal one, and Agent Zero is the one who does whatever Stryker says."
"And then?"
"I was the first one who couldn't stand it and left. Then Fred found me and said he had left too. He said Chris had left too, and Wade was dead."
Speaking of Wade, Logan thought of the chatterbox who kept talking and spouting dirty words all day long.
"...Where are the people you captured being held?" Logan turned around and looked at him and asked.
"I don't know. We are only responsible for arresting people and handing them over to others sent by Stryker."
"Who should I contact if I want to know where they are?"
John shook his head helplessly and said, "You're going to kill my buddy..."
"Tell me, John. I promise I will solve the problem and will not implicate you. Otherwise, do you want to live in hiding like this, under Stryker's surveillance?"
John said dejectedly, "Chris is dead. He died in an amusement park some time ago."
As he spoke, he took out a newspaper and handed it to Logan.
After Logan finished reading it, he saw a piece of news: an amusement park worker died in an attack by a wild beast.
But he knew that it was not some wild beast; it was caused by Victor's claws.
"Huh... Fred might know. He was very familiar with the guards who came to take our people away during that time," John said with a sigh.
"Where is Fred now?"
"Right here."
John raised his head and signaled to the people below. When Logan looked over, he saw a familiar-looking man appear in the boxing ring, but...
"Oh my god, how did he become like this? His butt is sticking out from the front."
Fred used to be very strong, but now, from a distance, he looked like just a ball of fat. Because his clothes didn't fit him well, his big belly really looked like a fat butt from a distance.
"Oh, he suffers from bulimia." John shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly.
"Let's go down and talk to him."
John followed and said, "Don't mention anything about his size to him."
"If he is so shy about it, he should lose weight."
"Hehe..."
When they arrived at the practice field, as soon as a few people got on stage, Fred, holding a milkshake, punched his sparring partner out of the ring.
