Logan thought for a minute. A nightmare about being shot? If it was a memory, Jack was stronger than he'd thought. Logan didn't doubt its reality when he looked at Jack's face. He nodded. "That'd probably be best. We can go tonight, if you think we need to." He turned to Jean, waiting for her input. "Do you think it's too soon to leave?"

"No, go right now." She pulled Logan aside. "Please do everything you can. I had to promise him if he came back and still didn't know anything, that I'd use my powers, but you know as well as I do that that's not a good idea. I really don't want it to come to that."

"Well have fun." Said Zombie as she listened to this. So they were leaving... again. She put on a face and tried to look super tired. "I'm just going to go back to bed then." She said with a tight, tired looking smile and started off.

Jack followed her and grabbed her arm when they were out of earshot. "Zombie... I'm scared. I don't wanna know what I forgot. What if it's something I shouldn't see?" He held her hand in both of his and looked at her. He felt so alone.

Zombie smiled when he held her hand, though she didn't know why. "What about the other stuff? Family... friends. Don't you want to know?" She asked, knowing how sh would feel if she had forgotten her father. It would be horrible. "And Logan and Dr.Grey seem to think it a good idea. You trust Logan don't you?" She said hoping to encourage him.

Logan watched Jack walk away and turned to Jean. He reached out and took her hand. "I know. It won't have to, I promise." He was silent for a moment. "I'll miss you, Jean." He quickly kissed her and turned away to get Jack.

Jack nodded slightly. "Of course I trust him. I owe Logan my life." He bit his lip. "I want to know. I just... I'm so scared. All I've seen so far are the bad things. What if my whole life is one giant nightmare?"

Zombie bit her lip trying to think of an encouraging answer. "Well..." She said choosing her words carefully. "That' why you have us. Like me, Logan, Dr.Grey. We'll help chase the nightmares away." She said, hoping it made sens to him, it did to her.

Jack nodded, hands shaking. She was right. At least he wasn't totally alone. But he was so scared.

"Oh. Please stop being so scared." Pleaded Zombie upon watching the color of his soul change. She sighed and grabbed his hands tight to try and get him to stop shaking. "Please, please, please." She said.

Jack smiled and forced his emotions down into the pit of his stomach. He nodded. "I can't help it. I'll try for you, though."

"Thank you!" She said happily and let go of his hands to hug him. When she realized what she was doing however she moved back some. "Sorry." She said clearing her throat, casually. 'Stupid' She thought. She couldn't hug Jack. What if he freaked out or soemthing. She always had t remind herself he was so delicate!

Jack stiffened when Zombie hugged him, shocked. Then he hesitated for a moment. He reached out and pulled her back into the hug. "Thank you."

"Oh. No problem." Siad Zombie surprised he actually hadn't minded after all.

Logan grabbed Jack's shoulder, snapping him to attention, and steered him toward the exit. "Go pack up whatever you wanna bring. We'll be gone fer a week."
