Chapter seven
January 10, 1989
Ten years had gone by since that day when I had lost my pack I had rejoined Stryker's team and was once again working with Zero, Wade, John who I called by his last name which was Wraith, Fred and Chris. I was the only girl on the team but I was the most deadly person on it because I had discovered that when I touched a mutant I got their abilities and their knowledge on how to use and control them. The mutant's I touched didn't feel a thing, it was as if my body immediately copied their DNA and fussed it with mine. I didn't tell Stryker that however I knew that if he knew then he would try all sort's of different experiments on me. So far besides' my own feral nature I had gotten the ability of a marksman from Zero, a swordsman from Wade, teleportation from Wraith, invulnerability from Fred and electropathic ability from Chris. I had also been assigned to kill several mutants who were out of control and had gained the ability to shape-shift and control all four elements earth, fire, air, and water as well as the ability to control and change the weather as well as telekinesis and the ability to pick up languages as soon as I heard them or touched someone who knew a different language. I didn't get close to any of the others I didn't trust them to have my back either but I did watch their backs while we were fighting. Hang on a second… Zero just told me that Stryker wants to talk to me in his office so I'll burn these papers and leave.

P.S. I am now going by Death since that seems' to be the only thing I bring to people.
I burned the small piece of paper I had written on in the fire of I had burning in my room before heading towards Stryker's' office. When I got there I knocked on the metal doors three times fast four times slow before I entered his office. "So what do you think of the new knocking code I gave you guys?" Stryker asked a small smile on his face. I said nothing just looked at him with a blank face, he go the picture and stopped the small talk. "I'll be brief.' Stryker said as he opened the top drawer of his desk and pulled out some papers, 'About sixteen years ago when you, Logan and Creed had quit I found the metal that I had been searching for. Just recently I was able to get a scientific team together and we theorized that if someone had that metal attached to their bones they would be indestructible. Of course many people, well countries actually, would pay to have an indestructible weapon on their hands and to be blunt I would like you to be the second one to undergo this surgery. Since you have extreme healing capabilities you would survive no matter what." Stryker said as he looked at me with barley concealed excitement. "No." I replied as I turned toward the door. "Oh. My mistake I though that you would like to take revenge on the person who killed Logan and Creed." Stryker said.
I stopped and slowly turned around my eye's narrowed, "What did you say." I said my tone clearly filled with venom. Stryker blanched slightly but replied, "The first weapon killed Logan and Creed and there's no way that you can kill it unless you to are indestructible." I took only a second to think about it before nodding briefly, "I'll do it but you must promise to give me all the information you have on this 'first weapon'." I replied. Stryker nodded eagerly, "Done." He replied. He told me to meet him and the other scientist who would be conducting the experiment in the lab on the first level in four hours. I nodded and left his office, four hours later I was in the lab, twenty minutes after that I was being put under for the experiment. At first they had trouble keeping my skin open in order to pump the metal into me but after a couple of minutes they got it to stay open and the experimentation began. I couldn't feel anything at first but then I felt something boiling hot come rushing into my veins, my body felt like it was on fire I could feel my healing factor trying to kick in but the metal kept coming. I couldn't take anymore and finally I blacked out.
I awoke in what felt like a new body everything felt so heavy I tried to take a deep breath but something was covering my face, I begin to panic and struggle, twisting and turning all the sudden I felt a sharp pain in both of my hands. I brought my hands up to my face and was startled to see three metal claws jutting out from each fist. I still couldn't breath so I used my new claws and slashed a hole in the tank that was holding me, fluid rushed out and finally I could breath. I tore off the needles that were stuck into my veins and stepped out of the tank. Everyone was startled to see me when I walked out of the lab and straight into Stryker's office. I ignored their looks and the smell of their lust and stared at Stryker, "The information. Now." I said noting that my voice sounded huskier then normal. Stryker gave me a folder filled with papers and I turned to leave, I stopped at my room and changed from the sports-bra and shorts I had been wearing in the tank into a black tank-top with black cargo pants and no shoes. All my other clothes were shoved into a small backpack that I had made from the skin of wolf. After that I stopped at the weapons room and grabbed all my weapons, making sure to take the tracking devices off of them I left this time for good.
I walked a couple hundred miles before making camp and settling down to look at folder, after I opened it I realized I had been duped. The papers that were shoved into the folder had information about the mutant's I had killed. I snarled in anger as I realized that Stryker had used me. I thought about going back to kill him but my bodies new weight had made me extremely tired from the walking so I settled into a tree to sleep. I must have slept a couple of days because the next time I awoke I could hear helicopters passing overhead I could make out a couple of words like Wolverine, Sabertooth, Silverfox, death, indestructible, Stryker, Deadpool and completely destroyed. I decided to check it out so I followed the helicopters back only to see Stryker's base was completely destroyed. I waited until night fell and I could sneak in undetected before I walked through the ruins. I could smell Logan's scent as well as Creeds and a strange yet pleasant musk from another man that seemed laced with electricity. Logan's scent headed to the east and Creeds scent headed to the north the other male scent seemed to head toward the ocean and then just disappeared.
I was close to the other side of the base when I smelt as well as saw Kayla and her sister Stream lying on the ground, dead. Stream from a gunshot and Kayla from a hole in her stomach, although I didn't like them I knew I couldn't let them here to be taking back to a lab somewhere to be studied and cut up so I picked them up with my telekinesis and took them several hundred yards away from the ruins and buried them putting flowers on all four sides and a small tree sapling in the middle so I would be able to find them again one day and show Logan and Creed where their wives were buried, then I left that island and never looked back. I used my shape shifting abilities and turned into an orca whale and slowly swam the ocean aimlessly. Unsure of what to do now, finally I came out of the ocean and went to a bank I claimed my money and then had all the funds transferred to Paris, France. Deciding that it was time for a change of scenery, I wasn't in no way trusting a metal plane to fly me so after putting my luggage on board to France I transformed into a bird and flew there. I got there four hours ahead of my luggage and decided to look around, I walked into a casino and there met Remy LeBeau a.k.a Gambit.
