M-Day
Becoming 'normal,' being rejected by her family and thrown out to fend for herself…
She had never wanted to be normal, not like some of the others. She had loved her powers as much as almost anything. On some of her bad days she hated all the X-Men for their abandonment of her. Especially Wolverine who she loved with all her being, who was her father, mentor, partner,

Forgetting her lack of power for that one
Fateful
Moment.
He had turned on her and ravaged her with claws and fangs and then disappeared out the door.
Leaving her for dead.
Her eyes dimmed as the darkness finally consumed her vision and all she could hear was her heart
As the beat…
Slowly…
Stopped.
-Not the End-
