Once upon a time... Nah, I'm just kidding.

It begins in a small, run down bar, located in Northern Alberta, Canada. Taking a look inside said bar, multiple truckers and drunks can be found. As well as a giant caged ring, and a vague outline of a body hidden in the shadow. All that can be seen of the person hidden in the shadows are two forest green eyes that are focused completely on the caged ring not twenty feet away. Inside the ring, two men are standing on opposite sides. One, the reigning champion for the night, known as Wolverine, has wild, dark brown hair, and deep, dark brown eyes, that resemble the color of wet bark, standing about 6'2, nearly 210 pounds of pure muscle, and wearing a pair of faded jeans, and combat boots. Not to mention his unruly facial hair. His opponent, bald man, wearing a black graphic t-shirt with the sleeves torn off, a pair of jeans, and boots.

The announcer of the cage matches walks over to the new fighter.

"Whatever you do, don't hit him in the balls," he mentions.

"You said anything goes," the bald man snaps back.

"Anything goes, but he'll take it personally and the Angel of Death won't take to kindly to it either," the announcer warns before trying to leave.

"What are you talking about," he asks, forcing the announcer to move back into the ring.

The older gentleman simply points to the shadows where the eyes simply change into a glare.

"You try and fight dirty, you'll have to deal with that," the announcer states before getting out of the ring.

The bell is sounded and the new man storms his way over to Wolverine and punches him in the back, which forces him into the unforgiving steel. The bald man continues to punch the him until he is on the ground, and then proceeds to knee him repeatedly in the ribs.

The green eyes of the shadow narrow in anger.

He's kicking your ass, you better not let this loud mouth, cue-ball beat you. Now get up, punch him a few times, then head butt him until he falls.

Those are the thoughts of the person that cannot be seen. And as if he heard those very thoughts, Wolverine jumps up and punches his opponent in the hand. The faint sound of flesh hitting metal can be heard only by trained ears. Wolverine then continues to punch his opponent, and the crashes his own head into the other man's twice, before allowing the weaker man to fall to the ground in a heap.

The eyes in the shadow shimmer with satisfaction.

And of course, there's a ton of booing from the saddened fans. However, within an hour or two, everyone is heading out.

Two men are cleaning up around the cage, a young girl is sitting at the bar, the bartender is cleaning glasses, and Wolverine is getting his nightly beer, all while the eyes from the shadow have yet to move.

As the bartender hands Wolverine his beer, the girl, who looks around maybe fifteen, sixteen, begins to glance over at the man. Not too soon after she stops staring, the man who was beaten earlier walks back into the bar and begins to demands money from Wolverine. He gets silence in return, so he makes a statement of how no man could be in a fight like that and not have a mark to show for. He then says he knows what Wolverine is, and this causes the eyes to slit in anger and defense. The man begins to walk away, but then pulls out a knife, causing the girl at the bar to scream. Wolverine slams the man against a wooden post and allows three metal claws to extend from in between his knuckles. However, the next noise heard is that of a shotgun being cocked. It's the bartender, telling the "freak" to get out of his bar.

No more than ten seconds pass before Wolverine pivots his body and cuts the shotgun in half with the claws coming from the hand that isn't occupied. He then retracts his claws and makes his way out of the bar, the young girl not far behind him.

However, the attention is turned when the body attached to the watchful green eyes, makes its' way into the open. It can now be seen that the so-called "Angel of Death" is a girl, not much older than the one at the bar. She, just like Wolverine, has dark brown hair that flows down her back, stopping a few inches below her waist. Her attire consists of a black muscle shirt, faded, very tight jeans, and black, leather, knee-high combat boots. As well as a pair of black, leather, fingerless gloves. And her nails seem to be painted the same silver color as Wolverine's claws. It is now, also noticeable, that she has a pair of military-style dog tags hanging around her neck. She walks with an unknown purpose towards the bar, where the bartender and the bald man are both still standing in shock from the turn of events that just happened. She stops as she reaches the bar, and the bald man blatantly let's his eyes roam over her curvacious figure, before coming back up to rest on her chest.

"Whatcha need, Angel," the bartender questions.

"Wait, wait, wait, this," the bald man says, as he points at the girl, "Is the 'Angel of Death."

He then begins to chuckle, which turns into full-blown laughter. But his laughter stops when he sees that the green eyes from before are now a deep black color, and snarl to match Wolverine's has come over her face. She then turns to look at the bartender before she thinks:

You mess with him, you mess with me.

She then lifts her open hands, palm up, and the broken shotgun pieces rise as well. Quickly, turning her hands into fists, both pieces crumple in on themselves, and she drops her hands, causing the pieces to fall to the floor.

Neither of the men say anything as she grabs her black, leather jacket from the chair she was sitting in, and pretty much struts out the front door. Once outside, she slips into the jacket and over to a beat up truck which as a small cab in the back to sleep in, and a fairly small trailer hooked to the back. She throws open the door and slides into the passenger seat.

"What took you," Wolverine asks from the driver's side.

"I had to leave them with a lasting impression," she tells him with a smirk.

"Accalia, well, I've taught you well, kid," he replies with a quick up turn of his lips, before turning the truck on and quickly getting onto the road.

"Not this kid crap, I thought we agreed, I call you Logan, not dad, and you call me Accalia, not kid," she reminds him her eyebrows furrowing together.

He simply grunts in response and focuses on the road ahead of them.

I win.

She smirks as he gives her a playful glare.

______________________________________________________________________________

"Logan, pull over and check the trailer," I tell him.

I know that he trusts my instincts so he does just that. Less than a minute later he opens the door and I can hear another person's voice.

"I saved your life," a girl's voice calls in a very Southern drawl.

"No you didn't," he growls back before shutting the door and we take off again.

I simply stare at him until he stops and I move into the back, willing myself not to be seen. The girl gets in and the truck starts to move again.

"You got anything to eat," I hear her ask and I know that we've got some jerky in the glove compartment.

And of course, the next thing I hear is the click and plastic packaging being ripped open. Then she tells Logan her name's Rouge.

"Were you in the army? I mean, don't you get those for being in the army," she questions.

Which reminds me, I still have his dog tags, but he has my set. He gives her no answer but then he turns the heater on. I close my eyes, and next thing I know, I'm being slammed into the nearest wall!

So I jump up and out of the car where I see Logan, and an old pain in the ass, Sabertooth fighting.

"Son of a bitch," I mumble under my breath.

However, he still turns and licks his lips when he sees me.

"Hey there pretty girl," he growls, I guess in a way he thinks is seductive.

"Don't mess with her," Logan snarls before jumping at him.

But he still gets thrown back, when a bright red light hits Sabertooth in the chest and he goes flying into the woods. And I can see that Logan is knocked out in the middle of the road. Before I can go to check on him, a guy in a weird outfit shows up. A woman with snow white hair, who seems to float down, appears in front of me. The guy goes to get Rogue and the woman checks on Logan. Again, next thing I know, everything goes black.
