YEAH! he should definitely come back and kill the Professor. that man struck a deal with the devil and sooner or later he has to pay. he just didn't expect the devil to be Wolverine.
grrrr! love it!

There’s a line at the beginning saying ‘it wouldn’t be difficult’ referring to what Logan wanted to do to the Prof. to back that up you follow with ‘ Chuck flinched, and the touch on Logan's brain evaporated.’ Then we had – ‘Logan was no match against The Professor's telepathy. Had Chuck so desired, The Wolverine could be laying in a coma, unable to wipe himself let alone deliver threats.’
Now as you stated after, it may have been the prof’s ‘guilt?’ that let Logan through. But I can’t see the prof letting Logan in full Wolverine mode getting that close if he could be stopped – way too dangerous - self preservation and fuck the consequences being the prof’s theme, guilty at being found out or not.
‘He was certain he'd come back someday (perhaps sooner, rather than later) for the old man.’ Which leaves me with the question – Is he a match for the Prof or not? And if he is, why did he let him off so easily? can't see him just walking away even if he was the underdog.
I read this chapter when 1st posted but have just re-read because I came away the first time thinking it was a little too easy (both the confrontation with the prof and the rescue but especially the confrontation) the second time though left me feeling the same – I can’t believe I’m saying this as someone who’s so impatient for updates but maybe with a little more time this could have been 2 chapters?
Please don’t take my ramblings as criticism – it’s just that you’ve got me so into the fic and I’m loving it! looking forward to the last one.
Author's Response: In the first quote, (Wolverine) meant physically easy, as if with a nonmutant. I believe they both were over-stressed, torn apart: Xavier by secrecy/guilt, Logan by panic. Emotions neither of these characters are really used to dealing with. I meant this chapter to emphasize the duality to the characters...With our Wolvie: on the one hand, you have his more rational, human side-Logan, who is fully aware of The Professor's abilities, that his chief priority lays with finding Marie and that any act of revenge against Xavier would need to be well-planned. On the other hand you have The Wolverine, who can only comprehend an enemy being stronger than him if it is a physical strength that he can see....I fully understand how you could have gotten confused, and I am so, so sorry that I wasn't more clear. This chapter did come out shorter than I intended, for two reasons: I was trying to give it a sense of being fast-paced, rather than just too fast.(It looked much longer on paper-fourteen pages, but I forgot to factor in dialogue and my huge handwriting). And this is my first real attempt at an a chapter with these elements; I'm not entirely comfortable writing action. I'm not trying to make excuses, of course, and I can't begin to tell you how much I apologize for the way it came out...Does all that make sense? Please feel free to email me if it does or does not, or with any other questions/issues and thank you for being so thorough in your review. I'm glad you like the story enough to tell me. :-)

Never ever EVER. Take what another man claims as his own. Especially Logan's. He always gets it back. Great chapter :D
Author's Response: Yep. Thats the first lesson in Wolverinology. Thanks a bunch, so glad you liked it!

I'm of 2 minds, I can't wait for the next chapter, but the next chapter is the last, and I don't want that either! Wonderful job sweetie, just such a wonderful job. Now, bring on my happy ending!! :)
Author's Response: Thank you, I trully appreciate that. I'm working hard to make the last chapter as long as I can, if that helps. ;~)

Dayam! That was pretty action-packed. The only complaint I have was that it wasn't longer! :P But this was amazing, and I absolutely loved the frenzy you put Logan in. I do love the Professor, though, so I'm always a bit antsy when he's portrayed how he was here, but you made up for it later. I thought it was amazing, although I wish maybe Logan wouldn't have found Marie so easily. But that's okay, this is awesome. Thanks! :D
Author's Response: Thank you!!! This seemed a lot longer on paper-fourteen pages. It always seems rediculously short when I type it up. As a writer, I'm sure you have the same problem. I wanted it to have a more fast-paced feel, rather than just too fast. >wince< ;~) Guess it just shows how big my handwriting is. Lol. Gracias, final chapter will be up Saturday.

Ok, it's the first time I review a story and I can read english but not really write english (I'm french). But I really love your story. I'm happy each time i see there is a new chapter.
Author's Response: I am so honored that you would take the time to review. Thank you.

Awesome. Just... Wow.
So exciting! Now what!?!

Oh, wow. that was awesome! I truly felt Logan's anguish. It was painful and sharp. I Hate the professor. If the needs of the many out way the needs of the few in his eyes then why is he not embracing the human's point of view about all mutants? By his logic because there are more Humans than Mutants, Mutants are expendable when it comes to the humans survival. His morals come down to what benefits him and his own interests and in truth isn't that what the humans are doing to the mutants. He is no better than they are. The ending of the chapter was hopeful yet so heart wrenching. I really loved this chapter with all its passion and heartache. Awesome job! Update soon!!!
Author's Response: Thank you soooooooooooooooooo much. I agree with you about Chuck.

I could kill Xavier for that! How dare he! This has me all worked up. I love it! More soon please?
Author's Response: Lol!! So glad it could get a reaction like that. Final chappie-Saturday.

Yay! You made my day. I love coming home from a tough day at work to a new chapter of a story that I'm obsessed with. Just when I think you've exhausted the levels of human depravity you come up with people putting a girl in a storage compartment of a vehicle after everything else that was done to her.
I completely agree with you in regards to Hugh Jackman's bare chest. I'm pretty sure exposure to it cures just about anything actually. It's just science.
In conclusion, loved this. It was kind of light on the kittens though...
Author's Response: The idea that I could make anyone's day makes mine. I could dance with the thought of someone being obsessed with my writing. Gracias....and of course it's science. You can find that in any medical book...but you gotta look very, very close. Bruce Banner didn't turn into the Hulk by a machine. He watched Kate&Leopold. P.S. I'm workin' on the kittens.

Awwww... It really smelled like an approaching end. Can't wait to read what you have in store!
This story is fantastic, thank you for making my day!
Author's Response: Thank you for making my day!! Next chap....Probably Saturday.

You are right to be happy with the way your action scenes turned out. You truly got across the brutality of the Wolverine and his absolute unwavering need to reach Marie, no matter how much gore and blood that involved. It was short and punchy and painted the perfect (brilliantly grim) picture.
There are many lines that stood out in this chapter, but I’ve narrowed it down to only one (for the sake of not having an embarrassingly long review!):
"And when it was over, the atmosphere was so saturated with blood every breath he drew felt damp.”
I myself write and post, but I only wish I could do so as well and as swiftly as you do. I am in awe... x
Author's Response: How could I have written so quickly or so well (though I suspect the latter must be an exageration) without these magnificent reviews? Thank you so much. >hugs< And trust me, theres no such thing as a embarrasingly long review....unless its a flame/bad review, which will only make me wanna cry. :~) Thankyouthankyouthankyou.

What do we learn - never fuck with anybody The Wolverine cares about!
Author's Response: Mm-hmmm. I agree.

As much as I love a cuddly Wolvie, nothing gets my heart racing faster than when he's fighting for his Marie! Very nice work on the action sequence.
The luggage compartment? They put her in the f-ing luggage compartment? Too bad he can't kill them twice!
I am very anxious to see what Logan does about this 'deal with the devil' that Chuck made. Will you be tackling that in this story, or do I feel a sequel coming on? *pins author with pleading puppy dog eyes* Hmmm?
And on that note, on with the cuddling! --Wendie
Author's Response: Whoo-hoooooooo!!!!!!!! So glad you liked it. Let's see what you think about the next chapter, and if you say so I might-possibly-sorta-kinda-at-some-point-if-i-get-around-to-it write a sequel. If it's in me. You know what I mean? But I don't think its necessary. :~)

thank you thank you thank you!
I am so happy that he found her quickly and has her back now.
I think he should disappear with her and never go back to the mansion, except maybe to extract revenge.
But however you write it will be far better than anything I could dream up.
Can't wait for the next update.
Author's Response: Oh my god. Thank YOU. I'm writing the final chapie now; you should see it this weekend. And I think you'll get your wish. ;~)

God. That fighting scene is the BEST one I read so far. My forehead is touching the ground in front of your feet. She should get better. And face Xavier herself. And spit in his face. I wander would he have a courage to look her in the eyes? Especially with her powers firmly in place.
Author's Response: >screams gleefully< So glad you liked it. Thank you!

Cliches often become what they are because they are damned good and useful and effective. Your cliche usage is beautiful. My goodness, you do keep Charles' insanity carefully under wraps don't you. I found it amusing that such a breathing contradiction was questioning Logan's sanity. Wow. This was an amazing chapter. I loved the violence passionately. I wished it could last longer, but I'm sick like that. You did yourself proud, Baby. Just absolutely excellent writing. Please more? I'm afraid that I don't do the asphyxiated look well. DOn't make me hold my breath please?
Thank you, again, for this. Made my day.
