Feral Family Reunion Chapter 2

{Wolverine does the voice over} Previously on X-Men: Evolution...

Elsewhere in Bayville, a figure with golden hair, amber eyes and a satisfied smirk sat in the darkness as he checked his cell for the time and adjusted his trench coat.

"Soon, runt" the man grunts "Yer nephew dies and I make ya watch before you follow." He chuckled wickedly "This will be a family reunion you won't soon forget!"

"Hey, butthead!" he calls out only to dodge a bullet being shot past his head as an even larger man than himself steps into the room and holsters his giant pistol "Don't call me that! My name's Barragan" he threatened in an extremely calm but still imposing tone

"Whatever" the man stares back at him "keep an eye on the runt for me, I get the feeling he'll try to seek me out." Barragan turns to leave "Consider it done, I've been waiting for a fight with this 'Wolverine' you hate so much" his ponytail swished behind him as he left, his dark blue eyes still glaring at the other man.

Now...

I woke up this morning to find my dad in my room glaring at me as I rubbed my eyes groggily "Is there a problem, dad?" He doesn't talk as I look at the alarm clock with wide eyes "Is that the time?! I felt like I haven't slept for two days!" I said in surprise having been packing almost all night last night.

I look back to my father, who sat in the middle of my room on a chair with his arms folded "Uh, dad" He raised an eyebrow as I continued "Why are you in my room watching me sleep?" I said slowly with my eyes on the katana he held over his shoulder "what are you doing with that?"

He unsheathes the sword and attacks "Breakfast NOW or you'll be late!" He swings at me and barely missed as I, stupidly, replied "after I get dressed!"

He chases me all over the house trying to slash me to bits and the times he missed I was lucky, so I had to eat breakfast in what's left of my pajamas with him watching me like a very hungry hawk, as usual.

I finished my cereal and toast and oddly, I was still hungry as I decided to have some pie that my dad made as he looked at me strangely but remained silent until I put the coin on the table.

"Where'd you get this?" my dad looked at the coin then to me as I replied with a shrug (making him hit me on the butt with the flat side of his sword) "I found it in my bag when I got home, I don't know who owns it but it's not stolen...ass." I said the last part under my breath and luckily, he ignored it.

"Let's go" He got up "if I make it out the door and you're not ready...forget about going to Bayville OR meeting Logan."

I stopped listening to him and was in and out of the shower in what seemed like a millisecond and putting my clothes on. I wore a black Reebok Fit with a dark blue jeans reaching just above my ankles with a blue shirt and a grey hoodie with Comic-Con on the back and put the coin in my pocket and made it downstairs as my dad was at the door.

He looked at me with my plane ticket in his hand and a grin "C'mon before you miss your flight." I fist pumped "Yeah" as we left for the airport.

Back in Bayville, Logan and Barragan were fighting each other. Barragan was having fun being pushed to his limits as he also pushed a completely unhappy Wolverine to his limits.

Wolverine dodges most of Barragan's shots and shredded many of his guns that he seemed to never run out as Wolverine snarls and sniffs "Creed, where is he?" He could feel himself going into a berserker's rage.

Barragan smiles and runs off into the airport "I won't be telling you that, this is too fun!" Logan follows him but couldn't find him via sight or scent because of the hundreds of people inside and growls "We'll meet again, bet on it."

Logan returns to the mansion and meets Hank, Kitty, Scott and Rogue in the kitchen as Kitty runs up to him "Like, there you are, Mr. Logan. Did you forget about taking me on my driving test?"

Logan pushed her aside as calmly as humanly (and mutantly, if that's a word) possible "Scott" he growls as the young mutant answered "Yeah, Mr. Logan?"

"Yer gonna take Kitty driving and NOT bother me unless Sabretooth is trying to maul ya or so help me-" Hank cuts him off "Scott, I think you two should go now."

Hank looks at Logan, seething in rage and desperately trying calm down "Why are you back so soon?"

This time it was Logan's turn to cut Hank off "I smelt him, he's alive and taunting me!" His claws popped involuntarily and Beast took a step back, eyeing the claws with his hands up to show he meant the feral no harm "Logan, calm down. This may be used in your favor; I got a call for you."

He turned on the voicemail on the phone from Anthony Browne as Hank said "Listen..."

*Beep*

Logan, if you're getting this message I've already left with Jak for the flight...I won't be coming with him to see you but call me when you've got the chance and go yourself or send someone to pick him up at the airport.

Thanks and talk to you soon.

*Beep*

"Get the place ready, Hank" Logan calmed down a bit, still breathing heavily as he left "I'll go get Jackson." Logan left for the garage before Hank could reply.

Bayville International Airport, Jak steps off the plane after a two hour flight and entered the airport. Little did he know, he'd also walked right into Barragan's line of sight as the hired assassin was now spying on his new target.

"Well, look at what I spy with my little eye" Barragan thinks as he spies on Jackson walking through the airport "Sabes' gonna have to pay me double for the price for his head, maybe...triple" an evil grin appears on his face.

Jak was almost outside and still no sign of this killer who wants him dead or his uncle, Logan but someone was following him as he turns to see Barragan stomping towards him.

"Still not a single sign of Logan yet?" I sighed as I looked at the coin I found when I heard a chuckle behind me that sounded both like it was right next to me and miles away from me at the same time.

I turned to see this giant man walking towards me, armed to the tooth with guns of all sizes and calibers I didn't even know existed as he smiled at me and gestured for me to come closer. "You've got to be friggin' kidding me" I snarled to myself as my fingertips felt like they were on fire as he frowned "C'mere, kid. I'm Barragan and I won't hurt ya unless I'm forced to. Maybe."

"Not in this lifetime, with guns like those you could be thinking of doing anything to me and I don't talk to strangers." I snarled as I turned to leave but a bullet hole landed where my foot would go, alerting everyone in the area and sending a shiver of fear up my spine "Don't move kiddo. I won't miss intentionally again just because he's coming"

"Coming?" I follow his emotionless emerald eyes to the entrance as I heard a motorcycle pull up to a screeching halt "who's coming?" I readied myself for whatever came through that door...except this, a short, gruff and very pissed looking man ran in and attacked Barragan ferociously dressed in boots, blue jeans, white vest and a wife beater.

One punch landed with an almost metallic thud and that Barragan or whatever his name is was knocked out cold, then the man turned and grabbed me and my stuff as we left and he growled "Let's go, kid." He led me to his bike as I asked "Are you Logan?"

The man then looked at me "Yeah, and you must be Jackson" He starts the bike and drags me on before I could say anything "Shut up and hold on, that guy never stays down for long!" He rides off just as that big Barragan guy smashes his way out and misses me by inches before firing at us and missing thanks to Logan's riding skills...wasn't he just knocked out?!

He then disappeared but I had a feeling this wasn't the last I'd see of him as Logan snarled to himself gruffly "Damn Sabretooth..."

"Who's Sabretooth?" I asked as he answered with a glare "My half brother" he pulled up at a large mansion and dragged me inside "and probably a person ya should stay well away from!"

"I got it" I said a bit calmer with a smirk as he let me go "good, yer father should call soon. Everyone's been waiting to meet ya too, kid." He leads me into the doors of the mansion with a smile.

Inside, I was greeted by a guy wearing red sunglasses, a red haired girl who were both around my age as well as a big blue furred guy who I couldn't take my eyes off because of the way he was grinning at me which made me nervious.

"Well, I guess I should let you get acquainted" Logan said with a nod as he left the room and I look at the blue man as he extends a clawed hand to me "Greetings, you must be Jackson." He chuckled as I took his hand "Don't let my appearance fool you, no one here will harm you. I am Hank McCoy or Beast and a professor here"

I groaned with a small smile "This place is weird." I said but in my mind I thought "They have a blue Chewy as a teacher here? This could turn out to be awesome."

"I'm Jean Grey and this here is Scott Summers" the redhead pointed at the guy with the sunglasses.

I followed Logan but soon got lost when I met another teen twice my size "Greetings" he smiled in a Russian accent as I ask "Hi, did you see my uncle anywhere?"

He seemed confused by this at first but then he got it "You're Logan's nephew, da? He must've gone to the Professor's office, come with me, and I'm Piotr Rasputin or Colossus. Call me Peter" I nodded "Okay, Peter. I heard from Logan that everyone here's a mutant, so what's your power?"

"This is" he said as his skin turned into a metal armor and I tapped it to know it was metal "Woah, cool." I was amazed, then my fingers start burning worse than ever before as my fingernails grew black, longer and looked razor sharp as Peter looked as surprised as I was "That's your power?"

"I guess so... scary manicure" I replied with my eyes on the claws as they turn back into normal fingernails.

He started looking at me oddly, like I had something in my mouth as I asked "Is there a problem?" He nodded and placed a mirror in my face, showing my sharp, elongated fangs.

"Wow...just wow" I was just about ready to pass out as I backed away and went back to Hank with a sad look as he was a bit startled by my transformation, but not as much as I'd expect as I growled like a wolf "great, I'm a monster."

A girl with a stripe of white in her hair patted me on the back with gloved hands "Aw, don't say that. I'm Rogue, by the way, they're way freakier mutants than you here." I looked skeptical "Oh, yeah? Like who? You don't even look like a mutant."

"Like Mr. Logan and Hank" she said as I raised an eyebrow "My uncle?" She shook her head "Yeah, like your uncle Hank." She gestures to Hank as everyone's jaw was on the floor as Logan returned "Okay, kid... what's going on here?" Logan looks at everyone in annoyance then me.

"Logan" Evan walked up to a frozen Logan as he glared at us "we were just introducing Hank's nephew to everyone." I was about to say something when Logan growled at me to stay quiet as Hank was thoroughly confused "He's not Hank's nephew, he's mine."

Logan points at me "You, come with me. Now" as he walked upstairs and opened a door to a nice room "Here's your room, paint it however you like and I'm guessing this is what your father wanted to talk to me about?"

"Um, my dad doesn't know since this has never happened to me back home before" I said "you want my dad to kill me or something?" He stops what he was doing immediately and just stared at me in slight disbelief "He got a problem with mutants or somethin'?"

"No, but I just... didn't tell him since he won't take that kind of news sitting down or anything else" I said twiddling my thumbs as he brings my bags in and stares at me "Well, he's about to find out and I'll make sure of it."

"What if he has a problem?" I asked as he smirked "I don't care if he has a problem, he'll take it up with me later" he then left the room and I followed to find him in the kitchen so I could eat something, I was starving and he knew it by the sounds my stomach made before warning Logan "Be careful or he might make us both regret it, he's not a person anyone want to get mad" as Logan's only response was "Neither am I."

I rummage through the fridge as he went out to the garage to get the bullet holes out of his bike somehow. I heard him leave then heard a 'BAMF!' sound with a sulphur scent and turned to see a blue kid, some years younger than me with pointed ears, short fangs and arrow tipped tail to match, which almost gave me a heart attack.

"Are you okay?" He asked me in a German accent as I gulped and nodded "Yeah, not like you didn't give me a heart attack or anything, I'm Jackson but my friends call me Jak" I extended a hand as he puts out his 3-digit hand to shake mine "Hey, I'm Kurt or Nightcrawler. You must be Logan's nephew, so what's your power?"

I growled slightly "Look at the hand you're holding" Kurt smirked at my clawed hand as a Cajun dude came by and whistled "Scary manicure ya got 'dere, kid, you must be Wolvie's boy. Gambit never saw that feral as a 'family man' though beside with Laura." He whispered the last part but it seems Logan still heard him as he shot him an incredulous look.

Suddenly, an alarm went off as I asked Logan "What's going on here?" Logan gestures for me to follow as he smirks "C'mon, you'll see."

He looks at Kurt "Elf, you two get to the jet and have Scott warm it up" Kurt nods as he holds Remy's hand and the two disappear in a puff of smoke that smelled like sulphur as I brushed the fog away and coughed looking at Logan "How do ya deal with that stuff?"

Logan shrugged and took off "Keep up with me..." for a little guy, Logan can move but I wasn't going to let him outdo me as I still struggled to keep up despite being noticeably faster as we made it to a large metal room "time for you to meet the man who changed my life and is about to change yours, Charles Xavier."

We enter the gigantic metal doors as they shut behind us, inside was a old man in a wheelchair "Stay" Logan glances at me then turned to the other man "Any hopes of finding him yet, Charles?"

Xavier was silent for a moment "I have his mutant signature..." but was interrupted by a voice echoing through the mansion from outside as I scowled remembering the phone calls.

Victor Creed had saved the X-Men and Wolverine the effort and was outside the front gates to the mansion with Barragan somewhere nearby hiding.

"WOLVERINE!" Sabretooth roared "Get out here and bring the kid or I'll come getcha!"

Logan and I came out the front door and he smiles evilly, but now I'm mad and I am now a force to be reckoned with...even with this guy.

Elsewhere, but not very far from the mansion, Jak's father was clad in an all soft black leather and black metal ninja suit with two katana on his back.

He looks through his binoculars at Jak and Wolverine then Sabretooth and smirks "Right on target."

He has a hidden communicator in his ear as he touched it and said "targets found, should I eliminate?"

"No" a male voice said "watch them for now and don't get found." Anthony nods "Affirmative, I can't be found if they don't know I'm here."

"If you say so, do not engage yet though" the voice replied before disconnecting. Sabretooth's ear twitched as he glared in Anthony's direction but saw nothing.

Anthony was hiding behind a chimney on the roof he stood on as he sighed uneasily "That was a close one" then grinned as his suit's mask came over his face "He's good...this one will keep me on my toes, even kill me if I'm too careless."

Back with Victor and Logan...

Sabretooth, as he calls himself, turns his back to us and grins at me "Let's play, kid." I looked at him like he was even crazier that he possibly really was as he ran off.

I was about to follow when Logan stops me "wait, kid" I kept my eye on Victor running off "I can't let him get away with this"

Logan looks away "Fine, but it may be a trap so you're not goin' alone" I nod "Don't fall behind, Uncle Logan" I then darted off following Victor's scent as he smacks me in the head and almost sent me flying before I regained my balance as he growled "just Logan is fine, none o' that 'uncle' crap."

After searching the area for hours, they found no sign of Sabretooth.

We've probably searched this place from top to bottom but that guy was too fast for us. Logan looks at the sun beginning to set "It's best we head back, his scent is too well hidden and he's gotten away by now."

We turn to leave but I swore I saw something black move fast behind me, then I fell unconscious into arms with clawed fingers like mine.

I was hearing Logan calling out to me, he seemed cautioned and worried but his voice was moving further away until I couldn't hear him anymore and my consciousness faded.

Sabretooth got the drop on Jackson and kidnapped him to lure the X-Men to him as a grin smeared his face, later on though Jak woke up unsure of where he was or how long he'd been out but he knew he was nowhere near Wolverine or the X-Mansion for sure.

"Rise and shine, sleepyhead"

I was hearing someone nearby but I couldn't move, let alone open my eyes.

"Ya should stop while ya can" the voice said again "I know yer awake, I won't kill ya without Logan there to helplessly watch, now fer the last time, wake up!" I feel a hand, and not a clawed one, hit me hard in the face at full force knocking me aside. He was not holding back, but I got to my feet and slowly open my eyes to glare at him, fangs and claws out ready to rip his eyes out.

The man standing before looks like a pure animal, he looked me in the eye and I immediately looked away against my will "Where am I now and what do you want with me?"

Victor looked at me for a moment before looking in total shock "Well, what do we have here?" he steps closer to me in his heavy boots "You have an inherited X-Gene."

"A what now?" I asked wide eyed as he continued "Aw, the runt didn't tell ya?" he asks with fake sympathy "Yer just like me, powers and all, it doesn't matter how long you think you're one of them, you'll betray them and run off just like the lying, little runt did to me when we were yer age and our mutant powers manifested."

I look away, tears forming in my eyes "No, I'm nothing like you! You're a dishonest, disloyal traitor." He grabs my chin with a smirk "Am I now?" he asks.

"We have the same eyes and you'll betray them regardless of what you really want" He forced me to stare into his amber eyes "That runt sees too much of me in you anyway and will do anything to protect his precious X-Brats, even push you away. Then you'll seek the only person most similar to you, me after all we're are family."

"I am not related to monsters like you!" I was now furious as he countered "Oh, yeah?" He reaches into my jacket pulling out Logan's coin showing it to me.

"Know what this means?" he asked "I have the other half of this coin so only I can show it to you" I looked suspicious but remained silent "You'll even earn your freedom from the runt if you can kill me, in-front of Logan and see what he does, think about it. Let it take over" he whispered as I felt my consciousness fading again.

Within an hour, I was chasing Sabretooth through the forest...it looks like I'd injured him but he was heading straight to the mansion now far out of my reach.

Meanwhile, Logan was back at the mansion and was NOT a happy camper. Not only did he lose one of his family's most treasured mementos but his nephew was in the clutches of his most hated rival with it, something he failed to prevent.

Logan paced around the room, he was supposed to be teaching in the Danger Room but just wasn't up for it today when something outside the window caught his attention causing him to growl "Sabretooth" but what he didn't notice was his slight limp and that his nephew was following intent on killing him.

Back with Jak...

I was not catching up to Victor as he dramatically fell down; suddenly I heard a voice "I wouldn't go any further if I were you."

I looked around to see a man dressed in what, to me, looked like ninja uniform "and why is that?" I asked, fully intent on going regardless of his answer.

"Look" he points to a window where I see Logan looking out at Sabretooth with pure hatred "Logan..." I breathed as the man continues "even if you kill him he'll never forgive you ever, you do know that, right?"

"Don't try to get in my way" I walked past him "I have to do this, I have no choice"

"Then I guess I have no choice then" he drew his sword and put it to my throat before my next step "I will kill you, then Creed even Wolverine should he get in my way."

He walked off then I said "Wait" he stops but doesn't turn to face me "I won't...but I can't forgive him."

He laughs "You don't need to forgive anyone, but tell me" he sheathes the laser edged sword "What do you think it means to be a member of the X-Men?"

"What?" I asked "I don't know...but I- I'm willing to learn"

"Then you should know people like him don't come once a generation" He looked past me "You need to do what you think is right, even if it means killing him but that comes with the risk of you becoming him as well."

I turn and run to Victor as Logan looked at me like he was waiting for me to make the impossible choice as I came up to Creed "Make yer mind up, kid." He growled at me, rage radiated off him "kill me or die trying."

I gave Sabretooth a dreadful look "I won't...can't kill you" I closed my eyes as he smirked to himself "Of course you can't..." I glared at him "but you have some things I need to know, so you're staying."

I began dragging him back to the mansion by his ugly ponytail, ignoring his protests but now I faced Logan.

He was silent and clearly angry but tired "I know you want answers, though I don't agree with the method totally" He glared at Victor and held my hand that gripped his hair, tugging on purpose "but put in a few punches for old man Logan and get your ass to bed now. Don't leave him unchecked either or you'll both answer to me."

"Long time no see, runt" Victor chuckled glancing at me as I glared at him, ready to flip the kill switch "like my handiwork?" Logan was ominously silent with hate in his eyes "I couldn't bear having a nephew so similar to me and not teach him something."

"What did you teach me, asshole?!" I let his hair go before I ripped it out as he remained on the ground "everyone has that animal in them, that hatred. I simply gave you someone to hate."

"Something you'll soon regret" I stooped to his level avoiding his amber stare. "We'll see who regrets what" he replied "enjoy torturing me because I'll definitely enjoy torturing and killing you to make the runt squirm."

I went to bed, unfortunately since nobody, especially Logan wanted to keep an eye on Sabretooth, I was left with him tied up very tightly, thanks to Logan, watching me sleep...that was my punishment, according to Logan, at least until Hank can finish making restraints strong enough to hold him.

"Sleep tight..." Victor chuckles darkly, like the creep he is, looking at me fade to sleep "...but not too tight and don't let me out of your sight or thoughts."

A/N – Jak goes to sleep with the last thing he wanted...Sabretooth, literally tied up at his bed side, but if he gets loose Logan will be far angier than he already is about the situation and he forgot that he hadn't even gotten a mutant name yet, he'd need that to truly be one of the X-Men. R&R
