God It's Another Logan

Wolverine and Toad crept silently through grass and past the stables.
"She'll be hiding," Said Logan as he sniffed the air. "Ready to pounce on the first thing that she sees as a threat, so be on your guard."
Logan could tell that this unnerved the young man a bit, but what was he supposed to do? Was he supposed to lie to him and tell him that she was going to be a cuddly bundle of joy and hugs and that in her current state she wouldn't hurt a fly? No, the boy deserves better than that. He deserved to know that WildCat was a threat to herself and to others and if all else failed they may have to kill her in order to bring her back to the mansion. Sure her healing factor would bring her back, but still killing some one you love doesn't get any better.
"Will she remember us?" Asked Toad as if he read the older man's mind.
"It depends," Said Wolverine wishing Toad had never asked that. "How far into a feral state is she?"
"Will we have t' kill her t' bring her back t' th' mansion?" A silent tear ran down the young man's cheek.
"I don't know." Said Logan with a pang of pain in his voice.
They have arrived dangerously close to forest; a sudden rustle is heard in the brush. A lost puppy crawls out. Logan and Mort sigh out of relief. A low growl is heard behind them. Slowly they turn around. WildCat is standing before them stark naked and angry.
"What in the sam hell are you two doing?" She asked folding her arms across her chest.
"Getting you." Said Wolverine angrily as he folded his arms over his chest.
"Why?" She asked keeping her tone flat and her stare steady.
"Well uh," Said Toad trying to find the right words. "I sorta saw you outside, I'm sorry I, but I thought that you'd hurt yourself or some thin'."
Her scowl softened.
"I can't stay mad at you." She said smiling at him.
WildCat's smile fades when she picks up an unfamiliar scent. Suddenly from out of the bushes bursts a large man with blond hair and very long eyebrows.
"Hello pretty." The large man growled at her. "My name's Sabertooth. Wanna play?"
He grabbed her butt and tried to kiss her. She shoved him off. Logan and Mort were about to lunge at him when WildCat's hair started to change from straight with flipped out sides to a wild curly mane like state. Her claws extended and her already pointed canine teeth became long and sharp. The final change was her eyes became a bright red with cat-eye slits for pupils.
"Don't touch me again!" Growled WildCat her voice echoed slightly like Mystique's.
She pounced him and began to slash away at him. Ripping and tearing at his body as if he were nothing more than a rag doll, he never stood a rat's chance in hell. Sabertooth was unconscious when she picked him up with great ease and threw him as hard as she could against a tree. She let out a feral cry and pounced on him again. His healing factor was too slow. He died with in five minutes.
"Logan stop he's dead now!" Yelled Wolverine.
She stopped and looked at him and gave him an evil grin. She went to pounce him when Mort lept and knocked her down. He landed on top of her and restrained her. She struggled for a few moments then fell limp. She began to change; only this time instead of looking like the WildCat everyone knew she turned into a blue and fuzzy creature somewhat like Hank.
"Wot in th' hell!" Exclaimed Mort quietly.
"Let's take her to Hank." Said Logan as he picked her up and carried her back inside.
Professor Xavier was waiting with Storm when the trio arrived.
"Who is that?" Asked Storm.
"WildCat." Said Logan as he rushed past them.
"Mortimer," Said Professor Xavier. "Stay here we need to talk."
"I love you Logan Johnson." Whispered Mort as he went over to the Professor.
"Mr. Tonybee what happened?" Asked the Professor calmly.
"She got into a fight wit Sabertooth." He looked at the floor silently taking the blame on himself.
"It wasn't your fault Mortimer," He put a hand on the young man's shoulder. "You couldn't have known."
In the infirmary Hank runs some tests on WildCat as a precaution to assure that she won't wake up in a feral rage. Hank did a blood test to determine what factors in her DNA could cause a transformation like this.
It took over an hour for the test results to come out accurately. Hank stood at his computer gnawing his pencil in deep thought when the computer beeped. He accessed the program that would show her lineage. The results shocked him so much the pencil fell out of his mouth. Logan walked over and stood gaping at the screen with Hank for over and hour.
