Finding the beast (Closed for Mayu)

[DeathsKnight]

Logan

He just had to chuckle at her remark about him being short

"Well you know what they say, dynamite comes in small packages"

He made certain that the stump was evened out so that it could grow again if it wasn't too badly hurt by the shock of the impact. He inspected the trunk and started to chop off the branches

"They can smolder for days after such a strike, I've seen it many times before"

 

[Mayu]

She was a curious kind of person and she enjoyed that, walking over she felt hte heat "Holy hell it's hot" She waved her hand over it, moving her head to the sides, she wondered what she was going to do now. "Logan, why did you come out here? just for a vacation to get out of the world in get into nature?" Maggie said walking back up to him.

 

[DeathsKnight]

Logan

Logan kept working on the trunk as he replied

"After I killed Jean, I just felt that I had to get away, to get the psychological wounds time to heal and I could only do it out here, where I feel at home, away from the world and their problems that always comes crushing down on you, grinding you down until you break or just ceases to be"

Logan was working himself up, the axe swinging with measured strikes, the bitterness evident in his tone as he continued

"The world doesn't care how much you are hurting, it just keeps pounding on you, trying to bash your head in with it's senseless needs, it always just wants more and more, you can lie bleeding in a gutter and it will find a way to impose it's needs on you"

Suddenly he stopped and looked back at the destruction in his wake, a sheepish look creeping over his face.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to rant like that"

 

[Mayu]

She smiled "Logan I like it when you talk about any subject, it means a lot to me that you feel comfortable talking to me." Maggie reached over and ran her fingers against his jaw and gave him a kind look .

 

[DeathsKnight]

Logan

He smiled at Maggie, it's been too long since he had somebody caring for him or even listened to him for that matter.

"I think I just came up here to get away from it all"

 

[Mayu]

She nodded relaxing a bit she began to wonder what he as thinking about. But right now things would turn out fine, they had to.

 

[DeathsKnight]

Logan

Logan turned and continued to trim the trunk, chopping off the branches, when he was done he set to the task of chopping up the branches into manageable pieces

"Sometimes this place reminds me off the night I found out that I have the claws, they were just bone back then, but they still effectively cut through trees, flesh and bone, but I'm sure you have heard the tale of how I was the bastard son of the man who worked for my father..."

He stopped working and grinned at her

"Come to think of it, Victor's yearly visit is coming up in a month or two, I would usually not look forward to it, but lately I found that I am"

 

[Mayu]

She looked at him, listing to what he was saying to her. "I don't care what people say, your not a bastard son and as for Victor, I would worry about him. He is a lot like you, only difference between you two, he would kill me. You would protect me" She chuckled some. Unsure of what to say to him. Relaxing a bit everything was perfect, they were alone enjoying the morning.

 

[DeathsKnight]

Logan

"Actually the biggest difference between Victor and me is that he embraces his feral side and I don't"

He grimaced

"He once said that it's exactly the reason why I can't beat him, because I can't let go completely, that I hide from what I am...but what he never could understand is that I chose to be what and who I am"

He smiled at Maggie and gathered up some of the branches after covering the axe again

"Let's get back, it's almost lunch time and I think I know of something you would enjoy"

 

[Mayu]

She listened to him very interested in what he was discussing with her, she didn't pay attention to the time, but when he stopped saying what he did she heard something. Looking up she noticed part of a tree was coming down. She had no time to talk but had time to act, instead of telling Logan to watch out, she removed the chain from her neck, flicked her wrist hard and cut the log right in half.

She smiled, she had saved his ass, well not that he needed saving.

"What do you have planned for lunch?" She wondered, sex maybe? that would be fun, she smirked at herself.

 

[DeathsKnight]

Logan

Her reactions was fast, that was undeniable, but where did that log come from? Logan was still pondering that as they walked and it occurred to him that he haven't answered her yet

"Well since you seem to enjoy my food, I have decided to fry you some potatoes and steak with a special little sauce I enjoy"

He grinned at her

"Yes ladies and gentlemen, he is housebroken"

 

[Mayu]

She smiled "Looks like that log came off the three that was against the one you cut down" She said simply, and when he talked about food she smiled. "Sounds wonderful" She said happily, waking up to him again she laughed at his comment. "Aww that's good to know your housebroken" She leaned in kissing his cheek, she already had a crush on him and it was a huge crush.

 

[DeathsKnight]

Logan

He smiled at her

"Then that log should have had torn free, made some sort of sound, but it didn't"

He shook his head

"It's fishy, but let's not dwell on that, accidents does happen"

He smiled

"And you saved me from having to dig myself out from under a dead weight, I owe you one"

 

[Mayu]

She laughed "No you don't, I do what comes natural i'm nice" She smiled heading to his home for lunch. "Seems like we like one another, amazing how it feels like ive known you for years, interesting how things happen like that"

 

[DeathsKnight]

Logan

He grinned

"Maybe I have lived so long that you are a reincarnation and that is why you feel that you know me"

He chuckled and shifted the axe a bit

"I think what really brings that feeling up in us both is that we are both recluses in our own right and that reason alone makes us the same and that my dear is the attraction we feel"

He added softly so that she couldn't hear

"And the fact that you're sexy makes for a sexual attraction from my part as well"

 

[Mayu]

She smiled listing to what he had to say "Yeah maybe" She said simply and sighed a bit, she heard him mumble something else, but she didn't ask, running her fingers down her neck to rub she grinned even more.

She walked towards the house and whistled thinking of her parents out of the blue. Which was very strange.

 

[DeathsKnight]

Logan

Coming to the cabin he dumped the new branches next to the dried ones, he would split them up a bit later. Picking up the dry wood and heading into the cabin he gave her a smile

"Make yourself at home, I'll have you fed in a few minutes"

He chuckled and headed into the kitchen area, starting the stove and started to get out herbs, spices and olive oil, getting the steak out of a gas fridge he set it aside and started to prepare the potatoes and sauce

 

[Mayu]

she smiled at what he said and nodded, she sat down on the couch and relaxed, looking into the fire alone. "Already smells good Logan" She chuckled some.

 

[DeathsKnight]

Logan

"It's the Pine wood, gives everything an exotic smell really"

After a few minutes he had the steak in the pan, frying in a sauce and the potatoes frying in oil

"I've been curious, what is your most favorite food?"

 

[Mayu]

She thought for a moment "Seafood, I see food I eat it" Maggie laughed at her answer and looked at him. "Meat, ive always favoried meat" She said with a kind stare.

 

[DeathsKnight]

Logan

He chuckled and retorted

"Well if you're hungry enough I'm sure you will eat seafood"

He turned the steaks over and took off the potatoes to let them cool

"It's like they say: Meat is meat..."

He peeks at Maggie and grinned

"And Maggie must eat"

He chuckled as he turned his attention to the food

 

[Mayu]

She sighed a bit, unsure of what he was thinking. Standing up she got the table set for the lunch. "meat is meat, you sound like my father" She laughed softly "Which is a good thing, you would have liked him"

 

[DeathsKnight]

Logan

"Well judging from the daughter your parents raised I guess I got to agree that I would have gotten along very well with your parents"

Logan tested the steak and found that it was almost done, he stood in the doorway and leaned against the frame to look at her setting the table with that practiced ease that women have around them. He watched her form in her tight clothing and smiled, it should be interesting to feel her skin under his hands

 

[Mayu]

She looked at him, seeing the way he looked at her. Maggie stood up and walked up to him, placing her hands on her hips. She took one of his hands and placed it on her cheek. "It doesn't take a mind reader to know whats on your mind. I don't bite"

 

[DeathsKnight]

Logan

He grinned

"Well you are an attractive lady my dear, I just can't help my thoughts"

He chuckled suddenly

"But you do bite, how else do you eat..."

Remembering the steak he quickly turned away and took the steaks from the oven

"Well then the food is ready and I see you have the table set"
