The best there is

After my little stint with the Exiles, I found Warren, Gambit, and Logan's degenerate Son all in bed together.So Obviously it's been over for me , and Angel for quite some time.

For the past few weeks I've been throwing signals to Wolverine , and he's either being coy, or he's too stupid to acknowledge it. he finally got out of that relationship with Kabuki Woman, and that nut Scarlet Witch, now he's flirting with some red headed alien on Some game show.

Worst yet he used Laura in his challenge. He seems to forget she's not him. I realize she's not in any physical danger she's almost as deadly as Logan himself.

No. What I'm worried about is she might go back to thinking she's not a person, when the only family she has left uses her as bait, and essentially a weapon she'll probably start regressing.


Her friendships with Dick Grayson, Pixie, Dust the saiyan kids, and others have helped her realize she's a person, and I've been trying to reinforce that during missions


That was before she told us all the Laura name... after a while she began imitating me which was kind of cute,



Kind of like the way she tries to imitate Logan's accent. I drove down to the Kirby Center to give Mister " I'm the best there " a piece of my mind. When I there I found a surprise, Guy, Abrams, and Dr. Austin Peters better known as the Henchman, and Captain Koma were contestants.

That explains why Logan didn't think before he acted somewhat he gets more competitive when there's enemies involved in something.

"What cha' doin' here Betts?" Logan smirks.

" I'm here to to tell you how you used that poor girl to lure drunks to you was way out of line Logan!"

" What none O' them touched her besides she can take care O' herself. "

" That's not the point, you were using her like Weapon X used you!" he stated cussing , and carrying on but it didn't take a telepath to figure out he got the point as he stormed off into his room .

Henchman starts off with his annoying "HAW HAW!" laugh. I enter his mind and let him relive his greatest trauma. " I don't care if you're the Prince of all Saiyans you're not going to AAAAH! My arm! My arm!" he screams.

Next I have a stare off with the the red head.



What on Earth is she wearing I grab up Laura by her hand " come dear we're going back to the mansion."

She was mostly quiet on the way back until i tell her. " you know you don't have to do everything Logan says. You didn't let any of those men touch you did you?"

" No. " She states. " I was just trying to help Wolverine."

" While that's good but not the best way to help him you could have helped him by saying no."

Finally she speaks up " Some boy told me I'm not a weapon."

" Well he 's right,weapons don't have feelings it's not that devil boy again is it?" I shared Logan's distrust of that boy, not because of the connection he used to have with Vegeta but because he had a rape power. Or as he called it temptation power whatever he reminded me too much of Mephisto.


" No. It was a walking dead boy. I'm thinking of helping him to not be a weapon either."

You know it it's telling of how my life is that hearing her talk about what I guess is some kind of ghost or zombie isn't the strangest thing I've heard. My life has just gotten way too weird.

Everyone seems ta think I'm flamin' depressed fer some weird reason. Yeah so what if Shi Vanished from the face O' the Earth. And so what if rumors have been going around about the the reason why includin' this one. Meh So what she's better off without the Okl' Caknuckle head in her life muckin'it up.

And now wit' Spring comin' around all the students are actin' like animals and are all kissy kissy. Especially the two half saiyan kids why are they in this school again? They ain't mutants. and they ring Bats here. The two legged vigilante kind that don't belong in this Universe.

Okay enough O' that rant. Chuck lets them stay here not much I can do. Anyway I ain't depressed because I sit in front O' the TV with cans O' pringles. I'm flamin' watchin' the end of the season O' my favorite shows.

So stop tryin' ta cheer me up already especially you Cyclops! He danced around in a pink dress. tryin' ta get me ta laugh. Or at least that's what he says... I think he'd come up with any excuse to dress in drag.

Others try it, and Psylocke is trying it. " Logan you're a bloody Warrior nt a couch potato What will it take to get you up huh?"

" Look Darlin' I ain't depressed leave me the flamin' Hell alone!" I shout.

" Don't lie to a telepath I got an idea I'll let you see my new bikini. In fact maybe I'll let you watch me change into it."

Wait what?

I jump at the chance I must admit this...

Is a whole lot flamin' better that the Summers sexually confused dance. This may wipe that memory outta my head.

Daiken led me to this base in Canada. I'm still thinking the boy is up ta Somethin' but I smell Laura in there. So I keep sight of the goal, and just remember ta keep an eye on Daiken.

We slash our way through a bunch O' security thugs, and Weapon X Robots the usual stuff.Until this kid popped up.

" Ah Daiken here on his quest to take over Weapon X I guess. Now this is a surprise that Wolverine is with him."

" And should I know ya Bub?" I ask. " besides the fact that ya like ta dress up like Wonder Man?"

I pop my claws , and he's on me in seconds tossin' me across thethe Hall. Daiken tries ta slash him, and smashed inta the floor I sneak up behind him while he's beatin' on Daiken , and slash his back.

My claws don't cut through his skin. I get back handed into a cage.
After healin' and my vision Clears I see who the prisoner Dr. Banner. How the Hell did They get him? Don't matter I know what they're gonna do wit' him make him a weapon .

I cut through the bullet proof glass, letting out tranq gas. Banner was confused as hell about being there.

" Wolverine? What am I? " He was interrupted by Wonder Boy

" You get back in your cell now!"

" Who are you? Where am I?" Banner mutters.


Wonder Boy probably does about the stupidest thing you can do when yer around Doc banner he pushes him. " Get back in your cage or I get rough!"

" Please don't make me angry you wouldn't like me when I'm angry." Banner retorts.

" I don't like you now!" Wonder Boy Slaps him. And I get outta there I know what happens next an' it ain't pretty.



Daiken laughs " Why Are you running "pop"? he gets his answer in a few minutes when The Hulk Body slams Wonder Boy through the wall next ta him. The Wonder Boy does somethin' Unexpected. he fires some kinda blast outta his eyes. That looks like it it stuns the green giant fer like a second.


" Now Hulk Mad!" He yells punching Wonder Boy through the roof then turning his attention to Daiken. I run inta the next room before the Hulk recognizes me , I mean I don't mind throwin' down with the big green monster, but I gotta get Laura outta here so no time fer me ta have fun.


I track her scent down to the end of the corridor where I hear a huge ruckus I go in there expectin' ta see her bein' brainwashes Claws out but what i see is....



She fought her way out on her own I guess she's a chip off the Ol' Cankucle Head. " She looks me over " Why are you here?"

" Well ta rescue you but it looks like ya don't need it." Well I got ya an X-jet back home but we gotta get outta here before the Hulk levels the place. We cut a hole through walls. To the outside, and just as we leave the area in the X-jet the base collapses like a house O' cards.

I would worry about Daiken but since he's gotta Healin' Factor like mine , and probably some sinister motive I won't.

Like me Laura likes ta go missin; fer a a few days or so. but usually she at least calls. To paraphrase Parker " My trouble sense is tinglin'." I hate West City i hate that flamin' ape king who runs around like a little tin god. But I gotta. Because Laura was last seen around Iron Man - Lite.

Ya know at times like this I kinda wish I was still on the Avengers team with Ironman , and not the one with Bucky Barnes. So he it woulda been better for Stark to deal with his alternate Universe self.

Because As soon As I saw him when I exited the X-jet in and I saw legacy savin' some people I jumped Iron Lad.

" Where's Laura ya tin plated copy?" I shout.

I get pulled off by the Batkid, and the Saiyan boy.

"I could have stopped him my self it's just Wolverine." Iron Lad States.

" Arrogant little jerk!" I growl. " Where is Laura?"

" We haven't seen her since the fight with the vampires a while back Mr. Logan." The Blue haired girl shrugs.

" And ya didn't look fer her? Stupid kids! Show me where this fight was!"
After they take me there they ask if they can help " I think ya've done enough get outta my sight!"

I sniff around though it's been a few days ,there's still some scents left. Last place I catch Laura's there was signs of a struggle wit' somethin' strong real strong.

A familiar voice comes outta nowhere. " Weapon X has her."

" How very convenient that ya flamin' show up ta tell me that Daiken."

He grunts. " You're pretty easy to track must be slipping in your old age father."

" Pull the other one bub." I relax retractin' my claws if Daiken is settin' me up for a trap then walkin' inta it maybe the only way ta save Laura. " Fine Bub tell me what ya know."

" No Father I'm going to show you I know where they are holding my siser, and We're both going or you're not going at all."

"Oh yeah this ain't a trap." I think sarcastically but whatever when it's sprung we'll flamin' see who's trapped.

X-23

What a cluster!@#%&^ Anthony put me in . He recruited me for this dumb Legacy Team. You had it good in the Outsider Laura, but no you just had to let those puppy dog eyes And the cute groveling Anthony did mess with your common sense.

And Of course immediately it all goes to hell Stark Jr runs into a battle with Vampires with no plan, and the Red Hood gets his stupid self
bitten by some boss vampire.

He attacks me I was about to rip him a new one when Hos little girlfriend Yelps at me to stop, well right before she's taken out by some alien guy with a yellow ring.

In my one second distraction Todd shot me in the face. He apparently hit me with something after that... I don't remember but after my healing factor kicked in I was gonna have one hell of a bezerker rage on Jason Todd until the one member of Anthony's little replacement team that didn't show up , did. Wonder boy.


Where were you?" I yell.

" I was waiting for your little friends to be defeated little weapon. The Project wants you back."

"Project ? Weapon X? You work for them?"

He knocks me out with a punch so fast I can barely register it. My last thought before blackness is " I should have stayed in bed this morning."


Wolverine.


Well I was tagged by Jon the Intergalactic gladiator fer a splotchy story meme. let's see how this goes.

Here's what I would like to do. I want to create a story that branches out in a variety of different, unexpected ways. I don't know how realistic it is, but that's what I'm aiming for. Hopefully, at least one thread of the story can make a decent number of hops before it dies out.If you are one of the carriers of this story virus (i.e. you have been tagged and choose to contribute to it), you will have one responsibility, in addition to contributing your own piece of the story: you will have to tag at least one person that continues your story thread. So, say you tag five people. If four people decide to not participate, it's okay, as long as the fifth one does. And if all five participate, well that's five interesting threads the story spins off into.Not a requirement, but something your readers would appreciate: to help people trace your own particular thread of the narrative, it will be helpful if you include links to the chapters preceding yours.

The Apple

The bus was more crowded than usual. It was bitterly cold outside, and I hadn't prepared for it. I noticed that a fair number of the riders were dressed curiously. As I glanced around, I stretched my feet and kicked up against a large, heavy cardboard box laying under the seat in front of me. (Splotchy)

I couldn't believe my eyes. Surrepticiously, I tried to establish, without giving it away, if anyone else had seen what I had. For ten years I had been looking for that box. What looked like an ordinary cardboard box to most contained something most precious. Only by the small golden "P" was I able to identify what I was looking at. (Freida Bee)

How the box got here, or how I happened to be on this bus with it now--these questions were immaterial. I just had to get that box. The bus slowed to a stop, so I steadied myself. Just as I was about to make a grab for the box, however, it moved. Someone else was picking it up to take it away! I had to stop her! (Dguzman)

"Ack!" I expclaimed. "Unhand my box, Madam!" But my woeful cry was to no avail as the woman with my box had already turned her back to me, and was quickly walking down the aisle towards the door. Oh, cruel fate! The woman with my box was escaping! I hastily grabbed my valise and nudged my way past the other passengers to get to the front of the bus. (Zaius)

The woman was already out the door by the time I reached the front of the bus. I aimed for the door myself only to see it close right in front of my face. I turned towards the bus driver and gave him my best sheepish, innocent looking shrug. He replied with an impatient grunt but pulled the lever anyway and I was out the door in a flash.

“Excuse me ma’am,” I said as I grabbed the woman by her shoulder. “I’m sorry but I believe that you have my box there.”

“Your what?” she replied in a shocked gasp. “No, this is my box. See, it has this P on it, that stands for Persephone. That’s me.”

“I really must insist,” I insisted. “If you would just open the box and look inside, I’m sure that the contents will show you that it’s mine.”

“I’ll do no such thing. You’ve got a lot of nerve, mister.”

Just then, I looked up as the bus began to pull out into traffic. There, looking out of the back window was a small boy armed with an impish grin and proudly holding a cardboard box with a golden “P” on the side.
( Jon IG)

" Stop the bus !" I yell.

The bus driver rolls his eyes and says "sit down sir."

The old lady with had argued with a while ago stands up " he tried to steal my box!"

When I tried to explain myself two big guys walk up to me " You like accosting old ladies do you?"

" Look bub ya really don't wanna do this. " i growl at the first one he punches my jaw and breaks his hand. " Told ya." I shrug.

" What are you made of?" he asks holding his hand.

" Adamantium." I tell him as I pull open the bus doors.

I charge towards the kid with my box "Okay boy what's this about?"

His eyes glow red. " The fly comes into the spider's web."

" So you're some relative O' Parker's ?" I ask.

" Who? No what I mean I'm a mutant and I'm going to kill you now Wolverine!

So some mutant who no one's heard of wants ta kill me it must be Tuesday.



I'm not gonna tag anyone if ya want to go ahead with the story go ahead. Why hasn't Laura come home yet?

Well it's X-mas time again, and fer a flamin' loner I sure got a lot O' people to buy for. My Son Daken who just recently reconciled wit' me. My daughter Laura, Jubilee, Kitty, a bunch O' other X-people who else?
