A/N:Thanks for the reviews.
After flying for about an hour, Roxie found herself over the public park and decided to land. It had stopped thundering and lightning but it was still raining as hard as ever. She landed and found a bench near by, sat down and began looking at her locket once more. She had never understood why her parents were taken from her when she was just a baby. She had never known her father like other girls did. She had tried to tell herself many times when she was growing up that she was better off with out both her parents. She thought that if she beleived the lie long enough, the pain of missing her parents would go away but it never did. In fact sometimes, on nights like this, when she was all alone, the pain seemed to get worse. Her mind would drift off to thoughts of her mother and how she used to sing her to sleep at night with an old japanesse song that she had learned from her mother when she was Roxie's age. She could never remember the words but the tune was almost always stuck in her head.

As Roxie sat there humming to herself, eyes closed, she heard foot steps coming her way. Roxie stopped her humming and used her cat like sence to find out how far way the person was and with in a couple of seconds she had done just that. She found that the foot steps belonged to a man who was five feet away now. She opened her eyes and saw a tall, slinder, dark headed man standing in front of her. His eyes, she could not see due to the darkness of the night but she did see that in his hand he held an envelope that had her name written on it.

"Are you Roxie Oyama?"The man asked her.

"Who wants to know?" Roxie aked. She was not in the habit of giving information out lightly, unlike some people she had met in the past.

"Your mother." The man said handing her the envelope. Roxie took it from the man, looked down at it and then said,

"You must have the wrong person, mister. My mother..." Roxie began and then looked up and found that the man was no where to be seen but even thought she was talking to herself, she finished her sentence anyway, "...is dead."


Three days later:

Logan, in his jeans and wife beater tank top, sniffed the scene out before him. He was in the middle of a forest and in a perfect place for an ambush and he knew his enemies knew that. He slowly and quietly pulled out his claws and ran forward only to be hit by an optic blast a second later. Wolverine was thrown back and landed against a near by tree. He looked down to see what damage had been done and he saw a huge hole in his gut that he could see all the way through.

"Damn!" he exclaimed as he waited for his healing factor to take care of the deadly wound and the pain that came with it. Suddenly, Wolverine heard footsteps from every direction and not wanting to get caught, Wolveirne climbed the tree he had hit, even though he wasn't completly healed, and wait there for his enemies


Danger Room Viewing Room:

"Does he really have to use us as bad guys in the danger room?"Scott asked Jean and Xavier as they watched Wolverine from the viewing room.

"Its a simple exercise Scott." Xavier began, "It is to see if Wolveirne can still win in a battle if histeammates are his enemies."

"Well, he sure isn't having any trouble killing me, now is he?" Scott asked as he saw Wolverine stab the danger room Cyclops in the head and then move on to the danger room Strom and Jean. However, Jean noticed that Logan hesitated to figh the Jean and Strom that stood before him but it was only for a spilt second. Had this been an actual battle that split second would have meant if Logan won or lost the fight.

"Scott, that would be because he doesn't like you." Jean told her husband gently but before anything else could be said, Stromcame into the room and when Jean saw her friend she asked, "What's up, Storm?"

"There's somone here for Logan." The Weather Witch replied.

"You mean Logan actually has friends?" Scott asked sarcastically.

"Scott!" Jean scolded her husband as Xavier shut the danger room program off, just as Logan had climed another tee, thus forcing him to fall to the danger room floor.

"Hey, Chuck, what gives? I was ust about to rip Cyke's heart out." Logan said picking himself off the floor and dusting himself off.

"Thanks Logan." Scott replied, knowing that if Logan had been given the chance to rip his heart out, the lone mutant probably would.

"No problem one eye." Logan replied and was about to say something else when Xavier began to speak.

"There is someone here to see you, Logan." Xaiver replied quickly using his telepathy to find the person and then he said, "She's in the library."

"She?" Logan asked. He was surprised anyone had come looking for him much less a woman. If it was anyone he thought it would be Sabertooth and not a woman.

"Yes, Logan. Now go." Xavier said as Logan left the danger room and headed to meet the woman who had come to call on him.
