I Know Who I Am

Evan was not best pleased.

Sure, he'd agreed to come back to the school for the field trip that Logan had proposed, in spite of what had happened during the last field trip he'd gone on with the Jean Grey School. Deciding to go on the trip hadn't even really been a big deal. What were the odds that he'd get kidnapped again, after all?

... In Evan's defense, he hadn't been going to that school for long before he left for Fandom.

Either way, the longer the flight to the Savage Land took, the angrier he found himself getting. Why was he here, anyhow? Surrounded by people who had called him 'Kid Apocalypse' even before he'd found out about where he came from. Keeping company with Logan, who had kept that secret from him. Everyone had, hadn't they?

If Evan glared any harder out the window, the flock of geese flying by was going to start on fire.

"Everyone else always knew, didn't they?" He didn't so much as look up as he spoke. Logan had been walking by, he'd been aware of as much, and just talking would be enough to get his attention. "Everyone but me."

Evan had frightened Ms. Guthrie the other day. He could tell, he really hadn't needed to ask at all, with the way she froze, looking over his shoulder at the file he'd pulled up on one of the school computers. It had been a few days back, the same day that Cyclops had shown up at the school to try to talk Wolverine and some of the other teachers over to his own side, and Paige still looked shaken when Evan passed her in the hallway.

( It bothered him more than he'd care to admit. )
