Numb. That was the word that summed up Logan as he stepped off the train and onto the platform in Siam. His back was red raw and his sides were bruised, the marks carefully placed this time, easy to hide. Last thing Aaron needed was for someone to see Logan looking beat up before his movie wrapped.
Logan had learned what Mesomayoigodrex was, and apparently Aaron hadn’t wanted to talk about it. So when Logan pressed the issue, and then pressed it again, Aaron had ended the conversation by shoving his son against the wall and giving him a lesson on ‘trusting one’s elders’.
When Logan pointed out that whipping probably wasn’t a good way to earn trust, it had come to blows.
That’s why, the morning after, Logan was standing on a platform in Siam, wondering just where he’d find someone willing to sell a seventeen-year-old kid a gun.
Logan was tired of being shoved around, it was time to end the struggle.
