Capítulo 21: Chapter 21
After sometime, Mike returned back with Clark and a bunch of toys, by this time the people in the club were all gone, only three people were left in the whole building.
Logan and a fat man who were fighting in the ring and the Phantom who was standing outside of it.
To be precise, it was Logan who was being beaten like a punching bag.
Seeing this scene, Clark held the helm of Mike's shirt and said "Daddy, why is Uncle Logan being beaten?"
Mike couldn't help but shake his head as he told Clark to just cover his eyes.
This guy is really being used a sandbag for others to vent their anger on.
Phantom on the side with a smile while watching the fight shouted "As long as he vents a bit, he will open up his heart and tell you all you want to know, just don't fight back."
The corners of Mike's mouth twitched. 'Are you kidding me, let that fatso vent? He will open his heart? How will he? His arteries are already clogged.'
Mike could see that with the way this whole thing was going on, this guy won't stop until he knocks the hell out of Logan."
Logan was obviously not going to let the man hit him for free so he was punching here and there in return but it was resulting in nothing because of that meat shield body of Fred.
Just then Fred used his head to headbut Logan but instead of Logan, it was him who got stunned, all because of the adamantium skull of Logan.
Seeing this, Logan climbed onto the ropes and jumped up, hitting his elbow straight at Fred's head and in return Fred got knocked out instantly.
The ring trembled as if it had experienced a mini-earthquake.
"Oh man, come on, now how are you going to make him talk?" Phantom covered his face and shook his head. His expression was as if he had wasted his money for a show which was not worth a dime.
At the side Mike nearly slipped hearing this.
Logan at the same time gave him John a hard look and said, "Which side are you on anyway?"
The phantom just smiled and shrugged.
"Uncle Logan is great!" Clark shouted at this moment.
Logan looked over and smiled at the father and son after seeing them give him a thumbs up, he then turned his head to look at Fred, who was shaking his head.
Walking towards him, three shiny adamantium claws pierced his gloves and he angrily asked, "Now tell me, where's Victor?"
After a few minutes, because of Logan's new shiny claws, Fred told him all that he knew.
"Victor and Stryker are together. They arrested the mutants and sent them to an island for experimentation. Only one prisoner who escaped from the island knew where the island was."
"The prisoner's corner, Remy Lebeau, he is known as gambit!"
When this information was strung together, Logan was furious. He could see that all of this was a conspiracy.
Stryker and the others had killed his lover, Kara, just to get him to voluntarily inject adamantium in his body so that he could get his revenge on Sabretooth, but in truth Victor and Stryker were together!
Logan's face was pale and his whole body was at fire at this moment, as if someone was pouring molten lava in his body.
"Stryker! Victor!" Logan squeezed out two names from his mouth, his eyes were full of animalistic bloodlust, full of vengeance.
Looking at Logan's appearance, Mike sighed in his heart. The truth is more cruel than this.
He remembered that the woman whom Logan regarded as his lover was also part of the plan.
Should he tell Logan? There's no way, not to mention that he has no evidence, Logan will also not believe anyone who says that his life was full of lies.
And based on the current situation, telling Logan the truth will only strain their relations and it will destroy whatever friendship they have in between.
After all they are not yet on a level of unconditional trust.
Thinking of this, Mike just said "Logan, let's go."
Logan nodded and leaped off the boxing ring, walking toward the gate.
Looking at the backs of the three, Phantom's eyes flashed slightly and then he said, "Wait, I'm coming too."
...
[In front of a bar.]
Looking at the flashing neon signs, and women dressed in revealing clothes, and the sound of loud music coming from inside, Mike pulled Clark to stand in front of the door, and said to Logan "I and Clark will not go in, it is not suitable for children."
Logan nodded in understanding.
He rubbed Clark's head, and walked into the bar with the phantom.
Clark looked at the bar and leapt to his feet calling out to Mike "Dad"
Mike flicked Clark's head and said, "Don't even think about it, you can't go in there."
Clark skimmed and said, "Okay, okay!"
"Huh!" Mike took Clark's hand and walked off into the distance.
"So, Dad, have you been there?" While walking Clark asked.
"No!" Mike instantly replied.
"Liar!" Clark looked up at Mike with squinted eyes. "There was a pretty aunty who came to see you last time, she said she met you at the bar."
Hearing this, the corners of Mike's mouth twitched. "You're remembering wrong!"
"I have a good memory," Clark said after a pause. "Dad, do you want to find me a mom?"
Mike held his forehead, his eyes darting around, and said, "Ah, there is a circus ahead, let's go and see!"
"A circus?" Hearing the word 'circus' Clark's eyes lit up. "Where?"
"I'll carry you there." Mike picked up his pace and ran over.
In Las Vegas, the nightlife is extremely rich, more so than in any other city of America. The circus that Mike and Clark entered was a very famous one, and they were lucky to get tickets for this one before they sold out for the night.
The two walked into the show ring, Clark was eating a marshmallow, sitting on Mike's shoulder, looking around curiously. After a cursory glance around the whole area, he spotted a seat and he shouted in Mike's ear, "Dad, to the left!"
Mike nodded and walked over. But all of a sudden his eyes flashed with a trace of brutality; he could feel that he was being followed.
'Who is it? Stryker's people? Or someone else?' Mike held Clark well, ready to manifest weapons at any time.
But to his surprise, as he sat down with Clark in his arms, the man who had been following him sat down beside him.
He was a man with a rough figure. Mike frowned, after noticing that the other party was staring at him, with his eyes full of interest, and the man even licked his lips.
Seeing this he suddenly shivered. 'Could this be…'
Mike held Clark to the side and moved down. Seeing this, the man laughed out.
Mike was stunned for a second and then said, "Raven?"
"Yoo-hoo!" The man threw a wink at Mike and looked at Mike's stunned face, but smiled happily and said, "I'm so touched that you didn't forget about me."
"Don't look at me with that look, it's disgusting!" Mike gritted his teeth and glared at Raven.
Raven patted her chest, and grinned, revealing a row of grease stained teeths, she then looked curiously at Clark in Mike's arms, and whispered, "Is this the kid?"
[A/N: I am referring to Raven as "her" but don't forget that she is donning a man's Avatar in this scenario.]
Mike nodded, and Clark looked curiously at the strange man beside him, his large eyes were full of confusion.
Just then, the lights in the performance arena dimmed, and all the lights gathered on the central stage. Clark's attention was drawn to the stage and he curiously looked at the performers, while Raven laughed softly and changed back to her original appearance.
Mike breathed a sigh of relief. For him it was still this form of Raven that was comforting to look at.
"What are you doing here?" Mike asked in a low voice.
Raven rolled her eyes and said, "I should be the one asking you this question, why are you with that mutant?"
