It had now been a few days since Hank and Logan became full-nudists and overall, the two mutants were having a blast. Neither had to worry about such things as putting on underwear or doing the laundry, everyone in the X-Men fully supported their choice, and the two even became close friends. And although everything was great, there was just one problem.
"Hank, I don't know about you, but I'm really getting sick of staying in the X-Mansion." said Logan as both he and Hank were currently eating lunch.
"I agree. A change of setting would be nice for the two of us." said Hank.
"Maybe we can go on a camping trip or something. Something that involves wilderness." said Logan.
"Well, we could go to the Redwood Forest. It has plenty of space, the weather will be nice, and there will be no people in sight for miles." said Hank.
"Sounds good to me." said Logan.
"We'll have to ask Charles for permission to use the X-Jet, before we do anything else." said Hank.
When the two finished eating, they went to Charles to ask him for permission to use the X-Jet for their camping trip. Once Charles gave them the green light to use it, the trip was set.
One Day Later
After taking their showers and packing some essentials in separate backpacks, Hank and Logan were ready for the trip. It would be the first time in over a week since the two left the mansion, so they were thrilled about being one with mother nature for at least a day.
Right before the X-Jet was set to take off, Logan asked Hank, "You ready, Furball?"
"100% ready, Logan." said Hank.
It took roughly 10 minutes for Hank and Logan to reach their destination. When they arrived, they made sure to land the X-Jet in a secretive location, in order to avoid unwanted attention.
The two then exited the jet and checked their backpacks to see if they had everything. Both mutants brought towels, bug spray, SPF sunscreen, a GPS, cell phones, and some water bottles. Once they knew they were set, they began walking along a forest trail.
While walking, Logan accidently stepped on a sharp rock, which caused his foot to bleed temporarily. Although Hank was used to walking around barefoot, Logan wasn't so lucky. Additionally, he ended up stepping on sharp pinecones, branches, acorns, and among other things.
"Thank God I got my healing factor." Logan thought to himself.
After walking for a few miles, the two friends finally found a hot spot: a cliff with a lake located right under it. They then took off their backpacks and set them to the side, before walking up the cliff. When they made it to the top, an argument ensued.
"Logan, it looks like we're approximately 50 feet above the ground." said Hank.
"Yeah. So?" said Logan.
"SO, it would be quite dangerous to jump from this height." said Hank.
"Bub, you're talking to a guy who jumped out of a jet without a parachute. I'm pretty sure I can handle it." said Logan.
"I know you can handle it Logan, but unlike you, I don't have an extraordinary healing factor." said Hank.
"Yeah, but you were able to survive when a column collapsed on you. Trust me Hank, you'll be fine." said Logan.
"Well alright. On the count of three. One. Two. Thr..EE!" Hank wasn't even able to finish saying three, before Logan shoved him off the cliff. To avoid damage to his pelvic area, Hank got into the cannonball position before he landed hard in middle of the lake. Logan jumped off right after and landed with a less-than-graceful thud into the water.
"See, was that so bad?" said Logan.
"No, but you DIDN'T HAVE TO SHOVE ME OFF!" said Hank.
"I didn't want you to chicken out at the last second." Logan said with a smile on his face.
After swimming for roughly an hour, Hank and Logan got out of the water and laid their towels on the grass. Once they placed them in direct sunlight, the two friends laid down on their own individual towels and stretched their limbs out. The combination of direct sunlight and being in the nude helped speed up the drying process.
"Hey Hank, can I ask you something?" said Logan.
"Sure Logan. You can ask me anything." said Hank.
"Well, it's about your feet. I just wanted to know what exactly you use them for, other than climbing or grasping on to objects." said Logan.
"Whenever I'm too lazy to use my hands for something, I use my feet instead. A good example is if I need to make myself a sandwich. After I put two slices of bread on a plate, I use my toes to grab a butter knife and spread peanut butter on the bread. Finally, I grab the sandwich with my foot and begin eating. And yes, I always wash my feet, before I use them for any reason." said Hank.
"I got to admit, that's creative." said Logan.
"Why thank you, Logan." said Hank.
Suddenly, the two mutants started to become sleepy and were losing consciousness. Hank was the first to go unconscious and right before Logan shut his eyes, he saw a tranquilizer dart in both his leg and Hank's leg.
"Ah crap." said Logan right before he blacked out.
When Logan and Hank opened their eyes again, they noticed that they were both locked in a large, wooden cage. Neither of them knew who tranquilized them, until a group of hunters walked towards the cage.
"You got some nerve locking us in here." Logan said with anger in his voice.
"Buddy, you were just in the wrong place at the wrong time, nude boy. It's not my fault you were in the way of letting us capture Bigfoot." said the main hunter.
"Bigfoot?" Logan asked before he quickly realized the hunter was referring to Hank.
"Yeah, Bigfoot. After years of searching, we finally caught him." said another hunter.
"Excuse me gentlemen, but you clearly did not capture the creature. Because I'm not Bigfoot nor am I associated with anything Bigfoot-related." said Hank.
"You're lying! You're hairy, non-human, naked, and you got big feet." said a third hunter.
"True, but if I were Bigfoot, I wouldn't be able to properly communicate with you. In fact, you would only hear growling and snarling from my mouth, not proper English." said Hank.
"What the heck do you know, Bigfoot?" asked the main hunter.
"I know that locking up my good friend was the worst decision you've ever made in your life." said Hank.
"And why is that?" asked a random hunter.
Instantly, Logan's signature adamantium claws popped out of his hands and sliced right through the wooden cage. Once Logan and Hank were out of the cage, all the hunters stood in fear.
"Now, I suggest you drop your guns, run away, and never come back. Unless you want to lose a few limbs." Logan said as he pointed his claws at the hunters.
Nearly all the hunters did exactly what Logan said. They dropped all their guns and ran away in terror. The only one that remained was the main hunter and he wasn't going to go down without some type of fight. He then fired his shotgun at Logan and the bullet went right through Logan's chest. To the hunter's amazement and horror, Logan's wound closed in a matter of seconds.
"Big mistake, bub." said Logan.
Right before the hunter could fire another shot, Hank kicked the gun out of his hand and knocked him to the ground. Hank then put his foot on the hunter's face and pressed down hard, in order to prevent the hunter from escaping.
"Bub, you should've known better than to shoot someone with a healing factor." said Logan.
"What…what are you going to do with me?" asked the hunter.
"Nothing." Logan said as he placed his fist on the hunter's arm.
"This will only hurt for a few seconds." said Logan.
"What do you mean a few sec…AHHHHHHHHHH!" screamed the hunter as Logan's claws popped out of his hand and went right through the hunter's arm.
After a few seconds, Logan claws popped back into his hand and the hunter was left with a bloody, mostly useless arm.
"Now get out of here." said Logan.
The hunter then immediately ran away like there was no tomorrow. Both Logan and Hank were very satisfied with themselves and were now ready to leave the woods.
Once they were on the X-Jet, Hank asked Logan a question.
"Logan, I've been really enjoying the past few weeks of us being great friends. But a small part of me was wondering…if maybe…we could be…more…than just…friends." said Hank.
Hank expected Logan to laugh it off or ignore him completely. Instead, Logan answered Hank's question honestly and his answer surprised Hank.
"Hank, I would like us to become more than friends. I may be known as a ladies' man, but I have experimented from time to time. So you know what? Sure. I'm all in. Let's be a thing." said Logan.
Hope you enjoyed this very long chapter. Yes, I have decided to ship Hank and Logan together. I always thought the two characters had great chemistry with each other and since Logan over 180 years old in the X-Men: Evolution universe, you have to assume that he has experimented at least once in those 100+ years. The next chapter will be all about their new relationship and there may be some steamy moments in there, but nothing too graphic. Don't expect a full-on porno. Other than that, I hope you all have a wonderful day. Bye for now.
