Title: From the Inside
Rating: PG-13
Genre: Genereal/Action
Disclaimer: I don't own Max, Logan or the whole concept of Dark Angel. I own the concept of this story however, but will never officionaly own it as it is inspiration; feelings clutched into symbols on a computer.
I do not own Logan/Wolverine either, so the same goes for him and the whole concept of X-Men.
Summary: On a day which couldn't be worse, Max bumps into a stranger trying to steal her bike. Never could she know that hers and the strangers paths soon would cross again... Dark Angel/X-Men (Wolverine) Crossover!

" Where's the fool at? And have they started?" Max looked at the board, ignoring the looks some of the beasteous looking men were giving her and Cindy in here. She came to make sure Alec didn't mess up in any way, plus getting some satisfaction in watching him get a hit or two, somewhat of a payment of everything he had done to screw her life up since she had escaped Manticore a second time.
" Well, according to this Alec's fought one match already, which he won. If he keeps going like I think he will, he'll go to the final... and the other finalist is already chosen, some turd who calls himself " Wolverine". What's with the stage names, anyways?"
Original Cindy shrugged her shoulders, as they started to walk to get seats closer to the cage. As they walked by, one of the guys in it got thrown into the net, with girls waiting on the other side of the net. While Original Cindy jumped, Max didn't even flinch.
" Probably just stupid men needin' to express themselves or something... Disgusting any way you think of it!" Max smiled, and sat down in a seat she found. To both her and Cindy's surprise it was Alec who was in the cage, and had thrown the man into the net. Even more surprisingly, the man started against him again, and with one knock from a nasty left- hook of Alec's, that man got a safe trip to un-conscious land.
" I think da fool's getting warmed up, now..."
The girls shared a smile.
It continued on like this for the next 45 minutes, Alec staying in the cage and taking down man after man that dared challenge him. Not one of them got a punch onto him, much to Max's dismay. She kept praying for at least one, but her prayers weren't answered.
But they were to be.
As the speaker announced that the finals were coming up, Cindy returned with a drink for Max and her. Cindy sat down, sipping her little apple martini, looking around herself.
" What's the speaker saying?" Max clunked down some beer, then answered. " It's Alec in the finals up against that Wolverine guy. Perhaps that guy can get at least one shot in at him..." Cindy smirked.
" Well, if da fool is holding up like he's been doing now, I wouldn't hope fo' much..."
"... and entering the cage we have the so-far, never beaten WOLVERINE!" the speaker announced as the crowd went wild. Max would've never guess that such a small crowd could make such noise, but she was now convinced, and shown, that they in fact could. But what she saw almost made her jaw drop.
In the cage, standing only a few feet from Alec, was the mystery man from the night before! He obviously called himself the Wolverine, and Max actually found the name, although a bit stupid, fitting. His character, poisture and the way he fought were indeed similar to one...
But she had to warn Alec!
" Whoa, Boo, where ya going?" She turned around to Cindy, giving her a quick explanation.
" That's the man from yesterday night, who beat me up! I gotta warn Alec..." To which Cindy quickly responded: " Damn, girl, I though you wanted him to get beaten some ass!" Max shook her head. " Cindy, you can see what he did to me. If he wants to, he could kill Alec..." And with that, she ran over to the cage. Cindy drank in some more of her apple martini, actually feeling a bit worried for the shirtless fool in the cage.
" Alec! Alec!" Max shouted over the noise. She actually got his attention, and he hunched down to her level, giving her a moment. " Max, I'm kinda in the middle of something..."
Max felt like hitting him, and the only thing keeping her from doing so was the net in between them. " No, Alec, that's the guy from yesterday! Who seriously beat my ass! He did that to me, imagine what he could do to you!"
Alec half grinned.
When she'd mentioned that he was the guy from yesterday, he'd looked serious, but Max wasn't sure how to read him. But when he turned his gaze towards the man a few feet away, Max was sure she saw some worry, although greatly hidden, in his face.
" That short guy? You must be getting weak or something, Max...." Max grabbed his shorts in between the net, and held him there for a moment more.
" Alec, don't do this... Take a dive." Alec shook his head, as he felt the ring leader a.k.a speaker pull at him and said a quiet:
" I've had 10 years more of training than you. No, I'm gonna kick the living crap out of his ass" to her.
She shook her head, wishing he wasn't such a fool. Or perhaps he wasn't?
