Logan pulled into the gated driveway up to the mansion doors.
Carefully picking up his two companions he raced inside, hoping someone
would be up at 2 in the morning.
"Logan! I thought you left for a while!" Ororo rushed downstairs, tightening the tie on her robe.
"I..." He started, holding out the girl that was covered only by his jacket.
"My goodness!" Storm placed the back of her hand against the girl's chilled cheek. "Damnit Logan what have you done? She's so cold..."
"I found her at Alkali Lake, I didn't do anything she just..."
"Never mind, oh... come, we must get her to the infirmary now!" The weather witch grabbed the flannel that covered Logan's chest as they both rushed down the hall nearly knocking Rogue over.
"Logan?" She gulped down a bite of ice cream as they passed. Rogue followed, catching up to the two and noticing the girl that lay in Logan's arms along with a small black and white kitten. "Oh! Poor thing! Logan take her I'll take care of him." Rogue gingerly took the kitten and headed back towards the kitchen.
Ororo Munroe worked furiously to save the frozen girl as Scott walked in.
"I heard word of a girl that was brought in here." He peeked over Storm's shoulder staring at the bare skin on the girl. Logan growled as Professor Xavier entered.
"It's alright Logan, Scott is here to help." The older man wheeled over to the gurney.
"Let's get a heart rate on her... Logan when I say so I need you to inject this fluid into her." Storm held a vial of blue liquid out with a long needle.
"I can't... I mean..." He stammered, wondering how he was going to do this.
"Look Logan! You wanna save her you do as she says!" Cyclops growled at Logan as the heart monitor went flat sending a high pitched whine throughout the infirmary.
'I don't have a pulse... she's in shock!" Storm shrieked, her shaky hands slipped through tubes and wires. "Logan inject her now, right into the vein in her arm." All eyes were on Logan as he plunged the needle into the girl's arm, finding the vein and allowing the liquid to flow into her hot blood. Storm jumpstarted her heart again as Scott began her DNA sequence.
"Holy shit." Scott stared at the computer screen as he tried to scan her DNA, she was now stable and the others joined him. "What the hell is that?"
"Looks to be an extra strand of DNA." Storm zoomed into the sequence as it scanned for a match with the library of DNA already stored.
"I never studied health class but, how can she have another strand of DNA?" Logan peered at the screen, wondering if anyone would ever answer his question.
"I have no clue..." Scott started, now typing in different sequences. "She had to be altered in someway, perhaps cloned." His voice faded as he examined more strands finally finding a match of chromosomes. "You have got to be kidding me..."
"What? What's wrong?" Logan growled, demanding answers.
"Sabretooth, she's his offspring, somehow... maybe a cloned version of him." Information collected on a side screen of DNA she possessed of certain mutants. "Yuriko Oyama, Victor Creed..." Scott read the list slowly as Logan stared, his brows furrowed in confusion. "Stryker must have gone off the deep end with this one. Eric Lensherr..." He kept reading as an x ray scan appeared on another screen.
"Look at this..." Storm seemed spooked by the appearance of the radiographs. "Her whole skeleton is laced in adamantium and the bones in her legs are infused with steel plates. Look at her arms, three claws in her wrists, three in her hands. I can't even get a definite age on her. She could be anywhere from 18 to 25 maybe older. Whatever she was injected with before the dam broke has set her healing factor off greatly." All three stared with a frightened look as Logan came to his senses still staring at the claws in her bones.
"Yuriko was a temporary soldier until his experiment was complete, but he never got to see the completion, she must have escaped when the dam broke."
"Which would mean she's been out there for 2 or 3 days." Storm looked behind her shoulder at the sleeping girl. Professor Xavier bowed his head over hers, eyes closed he seemed to be relaxing her while reading her thoughts. The three watched as he cringed at the images flashing in his mind. Finally he opened his eyes. The Professor sighed as he bowed his head.
"She's been abused in so many ways I can't describe it. She's hurting greatly inside and is untrustworthy; I don't even know where to start. Hr mental status is very fragile and the slightest disturbance can set her off." He sighed. "She's very unstable." He ended is merely a whisper and Logan stood by the girl's bedside stroking her hair gently.
"What's up with Logan? Why is he so attached?" Scott stared at the two in a confused state as he watched the girl roll over burying her head in his hand and whimpering.
"Animals have strange bonds and feel safer and more secure when they are around others in certain time of danger, sickness and hunger. Logan feels bonded to her because she is like him and she feels most bonded to him because he is taking care of her." Ororo sighed as she put her medical supplies away.
"Their brainwaves are soothing each other, the girl is less tense when Logan is around and his anger seems calmer. Perhaps it is best if they connect to each other by just being around each other daily, perhaps all the time. Her mind is just screaming, I can't get a clear reading on her past." Professor Xavier wheeled out into the mansion hall leaving Logan and the girl alone.
"Logan! I thought you left for a while!" Ororo rushed downstairs, tightening the tie on her robe.
"I..." He started, holding out the girl that was covered only by his jacket.
"My goodness!" Storm placed the back of her hand against the girl's chilled cheek. "Damnit Logan what have you done? She's so cold..."
