January 5, 2017

Today is a bad day for Jubilation Lee, for today is the day she grieves the loss of her kids. Ten years ago that madman Sabretooth killed them, just to spite Wolverine. She had often wondered why he still chased and hunted her down, especially considering the fact that Wolvie died years ago. Why did he still pursue her, as if she didn't suffer enough? Was this some sort of twisted fantasy that he had to fulfill before he died?

Times were hard, and soon she found out that the legend that Bishop spoke of was true. She was the last reaming X-man alive, but that didn't make things any easier. She had to watch all of her friends, her family die in front of her. Some of them died peacefully, while others died violent bloody deaths, while protecting humanity. She wanted to give up.

Tonight was also the anniversary of his death. Wolvie. Well she didn't know the exact day that he died, so she just commemerated his death along with her children. She'd missed their time together, for it was only short lived. She blamed herself for that.

Things had never been the same, since that night. It was a cold November morning when it happened. She had been Twenty-five at that time, and Logan had been out on the road for eight years. He wasn't around when she dated her first real boyfriend. He wasn't there when she lost her virginity to him, and he certainly wasn't there when she married him. She had two kids that he knew nothing of, and that's what had hurt her the most.

She had tried contacting him numerous of times, but he was nowhere to be found. So she did what was the best for her, she moved on with her life. Yet, little did she know that on that cold November morning things were about to change? She had been with her husband, making love when he showed up. He didn't knock or anything, but he just barged right in. She was on top of her lover, as naked as a jaybird, when he waltzes in with flowers in his hands.

It was like time had slowed down, because she could vividly recall the flowers falling to the floor, in a hushed silence. She didn't move off her lover, because she was too afraid to move. She looked into his eyes, and she saw the first glimmer of a teardrop. It was like his heart was slowly breaking, but why? That question has haunted her up to this very day.

He walked out in a hurry, and Jubilee's voice stopped him cold

"Wolvie…. wait."

It was only then that she got off of husband, and reached for the long cotton robe that was lying on her dresser.

"Wolvie?"

"Please don't."

"I'm sorry that I have upset you. I didn't expect any visitors today. I tried looking for you, to invite you to our wedding, but we couldn't find you. I really wanted you to be there. I'm sorry that you missed it. Logan, please tell me how you feel about all of this."

"Out of all the men in the world, this is who you chose marry? No offense Charles."

"None taken Logan." Charles Xavier said as he tried to sit up in a more comfortable position.

"Logan I love him."

"HOW? WHY? Hell he's older than me!! No offense Charles."

"Yes this is starting to become somewhat of a habit." Charles said.

"Wolvie, you didn't come home. What was I suppose to do, wait around until you finally decided to come around? I am a woman, and I have needs. I couldn't, no I wasn't going to sit around waiting for you. You knew that I loved you, hell I even told you that! What do you do, you run off like you always do? How was I supposed to take that Logan? You rejected me, and now you've come back to see that I no longer want you, you're ready to run off again. I loved you damnit, but you didn't give a shit about me."

"Just forget the crippled husband right behind you." Charles said fearing that Logan was trying taking away his wife.

"Honey, stop it." She said as she gave Charles a sharp look of anger.

"Honey? This just ain't right Jubes. He's your teacher."

"My husband."

"Our mentor."

"My lover."

"He can't even walk for Pete's sake."

"He makes up for it in other areas."

"You've obviously made up your mind about who you want to be with."

"So did you, when you walked away."

Yeah I did. I only wished that I 'd stuck to that decision. Here are some flowers for you. Consider it a happy belated wedding gift."

"Please don't do this."

"Goodbye Jubilee.

"Logan."

With that Wolverine walked out of the mansion, never to return again. Letting him leave was one of the most things in her life that she has truly regretted. What was he going to tell her that night? If only she could turn back the hands of time, she wouldn't let him go.

Sure during that time, she was madly in love with her husband. However, she had no idea that he would be inhabited once again by "Onslaught." She had no idea that he would later try to kill her. She had no idea that it would be her hand that struck him down. She had no idea that her kids would blame her, and hate her up until their own demise.

There was so much bitterness that burned into her heart, that she wanted to end it all. So that's what she decided to do. There was nothing worth living for anyway, so she took the small gun out of her purse and held it to her head. Just as she was about to pull the trigger, a blinding bright light flashed off in front of her. She shielded her eyes, until the lights died down. When she looked up, she saw the face of a man she hadn't seen in over ten years.

"Cable? Is that you?"

"Yes it's me. Jubilee what are you doing with this thing?"

"That's none of your business."

He snatched the gun away from her, and put it in his pocket.

"Give me that back! Aren't you supposed to be dead or something?"

"Am I?"

"Um yeah you are. Xavier killed you in the battle of…"

"Shh, don't tell me. That's in my future, something that hasn't happen to me yet."

"What"?

"I'm from the past."

"No you're not, you're from the future."

"Yeah in your time, but now I'm from the past."

"I'm getting a headache."

"No listen to me. In my time it's January 5, 2002, but in your time it's January 5,2017. I came from the past, and traveled into the future. You should be familiar with this by now. Anyway we need your help."

"Why should I help anybody? Look at what's left here. Nothing. Everybody's dead. You were supposed to be dead."

"If you don't help, then a lot more people will be dead before their time."

"Why should I help you?"

"Because someone from your time has traveled to the past, and he's made it known that he's going to try to find himself from the past."

"What! He can't locate himself, because there's the possibility that he's going unravel time."

"He's going to create some type of paradox, which means that everything is going to be destroyed if we don't catch this madman."

"Who is he?"

"Sabretooth."

"Son of a..Let's go. You have to understand something first. The victor Creed of this time line is far more vicious, and bloodthirsty than ever before. He will not hesitate to kill, if anybody steps in his way."

"We already know. He's killed Cecilia Reyes, and threatened to kill us if we tried to stop."

"How did you know that I was still alive?"

"I didn't. I just took a chance."

"Risky chance considering that I almost."

"I'm glad that you didn't."

"Let's go. Vic is too much of a wild card."

"Before we go back, you are to have no contact with any of the X-men. The only ones that know about you coming back are myself, Charles Xavier, and Forge."

"Charles?"

"Yeah. Is there something wrong?"

"Other than the fact that Charles later became my husband, and that I had to kill later, no there's nothing else wrong. Then to top it all off, he had to be a telepath. How can I shield my thoughts from a man that I loved and killed?"

"I'll help. I'll shield your thoughts, so that no telepath's can enter your mind uninvited."

"Good let's go. Can you imagine two Sabretooth's out on the rampage?"

"Well we have our Sabretooth locked away in the mansion."

"That's the first place he's going to look, and if he did show up then he already knows where he is. After he's licked his wounds, then he's going to..we need to leave now."

Cable set the coordinates to travel back into the past. He couldn't help but notice how beautiful Jubilee turned out to be. Now he finally saw what it was that Logan found so appealing her. He knew how Logan truly felt, because he was a telepath. However, if he weren't careful, Logan wouldn't be the only one who felt that way. Time was slowly passing, something which they had very little of.

When the portal opened, he grabbed Jubilee's hand and jumped inside of it. Things were about to get ugly, but if there was anybody that could help it had to be her. If he was wrong, then they were all doomed.
