Who: Laura Kinney & Logan Howlett & [OTA later]
When: Saturday night.
What: Laura's been hunting down Logan for a while now.
Where: Near the woods around the Academy.
His scent was close, although mixed with many others. Other people had been here. There were creatures. There were plants, but she recognized his distinctly. The path she followed had led her away from the school itself. That was where she had first gone when she'd read left her mother's body in the snow. This was it. It was all going to end here.
She'd checked the area a couple of times, careful to stay out of sight. She was also careful not to stand upwind of him. She couldn't let him know she was there. Why he'd decided to go camping was not the issue of the moment. No, the point was that she'd confirmed that he was alone. Alone made him an easier target. There would be no interference from other mutants.
She silently broke past the bushes behind him. Her claws hadn't extended just yet. It wasn't a matter of getting him by surprise, so much as getting close enough to get in a good strike. She had studied him, her predecessor. The distinct snikt! of her claws unsheathing through the skin would be his only warning to her presence. There was not a moment's hesitation before she launched herself at him, ready to bury her claws into the flesh of his side, to pierce his kidney. The other arm was drawn back, her other claws ready for the next strike. This one much higher. Her strikes were planned, calculated.
