Chapter 07: Uncaged Fury

SNIKT!
SNIKT!

Logan popped out his claws and snarled at the robots.

"COME ON!, Who wants some!"

The Sentinels raised their hands, charging them with lasers.
Logan wasted no time in leaping forward and impaling a robot with his claws.

He raised the Robot up and rappidly stabbed it in the chest, causing oil to spill out.
Logan tossed the robot away, then turned and faced the others...who now had their sights set on him.

"Omega Level Threat Detected!"

Logan rushed forward towards them.
he slashed at the Robots, cutting off their arms, legs and some of their heads as well.

The others were watching this in Shock and Awe.

"whooooa..." Said Kimi

"Dude...that is HARDCORE." Said Phil

Logan finally stopped once all the Robots were destroyed.

"CURSE YOU, WOLVERINE!" Exclaimed Wrath from the Monitor, which cut off

Dil and the others approached Logan...who just stood there.

"Well...
that was certainly, uhhhh...Brutal?" Said Tommy, unsure of what to think

"Brutal?
more like WICKED COOL!" Said Dil

"Yeah...Dil`s right.
How come you never did that when the MRD attacked us back home?"

"ANGELICA!, that is a terrible thing to say!" Said Charlotte

"I`M JUST SAYING WHAT EVERYONE IS THINKING!"

Logan huffed.

"I don`t do that to people...not anymore."

"Anymore?" Said Didi, confused

Logan turned and looked at them.

"Like I told Kimi once: I used to be a DIFFERENT Man, a LONG time ago."

"you mean...back when you and your brother were friends?" Said Kimi

Logan sighed, nodding his head.

"yeah...back when we were friends." Began Logan

"we went on a couple missions together, usually to "take care" of other people`s problems."

"Like HIT MEN?" Asked Phil

Logan eyed him.

"NO...More like Black Ops."

Susie looked at him.

"Black Ops?
you mean...like Mercenaries?"

"Yeah...like that.
but, I only did what I did because I had to, not because I wanted to...Victor was different."

"You left because you couldn`t take the killing." Said Susie, who was figuring Logan out

Logan just sighed.

"It was senseless violence...and I do mean SENSELESS.
Plus, I got tired of being a monster...so, I left and decided to do things differently."

"That sounds VERY noble." Said Kira

Kimi approached Logan and grasped his arm.

"It`s alright, Logan...we don`t hold any of that against you."

"Yeah!
I mean, we gotta marvel at the Self-Control you have." Said Lil

Logan smiled.
just then, Wrath returned on the Video Monitor.

"So...you think your pretty TOUGH, huh?"

Logan groaned.

"Don`t you EVER quit!"

"YEAH!, LEAVE US ALONE!" Shouted Kimi

"Not just yet.
those Sentinels were just a warm up...This one will REALLY test your skills."

Wrath pressed a button.
then, a larger hole opened in the floor and up raised a single Sentinel Robot.

Only THIS ONE was much Larger, looked more like a HULK than a Man.

"This Sentinel design was based on The Incredible Hulk...
a creature that to my knowledge ALMOST defeated you, Wolverine."

"ALMOST is the keyword, Wrath."

"I`m afraid SARCASM won`t save you this time, Wolverine...
Heh-Heh, I am going to ENJOY watching the MARK II Sentinel "Rip You In TWO!"

The Sentinel soon Activated and approached the group.

"Mutant Detected...
Identification: WOLVERINE Classification: Omega Level Mutant Threat Level: Extremely High Course of Action: TERMINATION."

Logan just grinned.

"Okay, bub...time to BUST YOU UP!"

The Robot advanced towards the, promting the others to run for cover Logan just yelled loudly as he charged forward, wielding his claws.

However, the Robot punched Logan hard...propelling him through the air.

"LOGAN!" Exclaimed Kimi

Logan`s body slammed into a metal wall, then landed on the floor.
He struggled as he tried to get up, his body now throbbing with pain.

"okay...that HURT."

The Robot rushed towards Logan.
It grabbed Logan and raised him up, looking at him.

Logan spat out some blood, then glared at the Robot`s red eyes.

"do your worst, you sorry piece of SCRAP!"

The robot turns and slams Logan`s body into the floor...which was so strong, it caused a smal tremor.
Logan lay on the ground motionless, the Robot then began to punch Logan repeativly, each blow shaking the ground.

"STOP IT!, YOUR KILLING HIM!
PLEASE!, STOOOOOOOOOOOOP!" Shrieked Kimi, who was in tears.

Dil narrowed his eyes.
he finally ran forward.

"DIL!, COME BACK!" Shouted Didi

Dil ignored his mother and faced the Sentinel, whow as still punching Logan

"HEY!, TINMAN!
Let him go!, Or I`ll send you back to OZ...In PIECES!"

The robot ignored Dil and continued to punch Logan to death Dil`s eyes began to glow in multi-colors, Energy then formed around his fists.

"I said: LET...HIM...GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

Dil fired a powerful stream of multi-colored energy at the Robot which was a blast SO STRONG, it knocked the large robot away and slammed it into a wall.

Everyone else stared at shock at this.

"Dil?" Said Tommy in shock

Dil`s eyes stopped glowing.
he then looked at his hands, which were still glowing with several differnt colors alternating.

"whoa...did I do that?"

Logan began to groan softly, Dil ran up to him.

"Logan!"

Dil stared at Logan, whose body was pretty brused up His costume also had some visible Rips and Tears.

"Logan...
Dude, are you alright?"

Logan opened his eyes, then coughed some spit mixed with Blood.
he then got up slowly, groaning with pain as he did.

"give me a few minutes..."

Dil watched as Logan`s bruses and cuts healed.
he then stood up and looked at the Sentinel robot...which was pretty banged up now.

"Did you did that?"

"Y-Yeah...I guess I did."

Dil exhaled.

"So...did we win?"

The robot suddenly gets up.

"Don`t bet on it..."

"Repair systems activated re-engaging attack mode."

Logan sighed.

"great..."

"Additional Target Aquirred Engaging Mutant Targets."

Dil gulped.

"A-Additional?
d-does that mean...Me?"

"You see any other Mutants around here BESIDES us?"

The robot charges, but Logan grabs Dil and leaps out of the way before the robot attacked.

"You`d better take cover." Said Logan

"I can help!"

"Your NOT ready yet!
just GO!, I`ll be fine."

Dil sighed, then ran back to the others.
Logan faced the Sentinel, which now approached him.

Logan grinned as he popped his claws.

"Okay, bub...let`s try that AGAIN."

Logan yelled as he charged after him.
The robot swung it`s fist...But, Logan dodged it this time.

He viciously slashed at it`s chest, scaring the armor plating as the Robot punched again, Logan slid under it and quickly turned at it`s back.

Before the Robot could turn around, Logan jumped up and dug his claws into it`s back.
securing his footing, Logan rapidly stabbed and slashed at it`s back, sparks and Oil going EVERYWHERE.

The Robot tried to crush Logan against a wall...but, Logan leaped off before it could.

Logan turned and looked at the Robot.
due to it`s severed circuts and loss of fluids, it`s mobility was failing.

Logan just grinned at this.

"Time to put you out of your misery..."

Logan pounced at the Sentinel, impaling it`s chest.
The robot fell onto it`s back, then looked at Logan...who stood on top of it.

The Sentinel`s visuals were staticed and it`s power failing.

"M-M-M-MUUUUUUUTAAAAAAANT DEEEEEEEET-T-T-T-TEEEEECTED." Said the Sentinel, in damaged speech

Logan wieled his claws and snarled at the Sentinel.

"say hello to the scrapyard, bub."

Logan impaled his claws into the Sentinel`s head and tore it apart.
The robot finally slumped down on the ground, powering down.

Logan stepped off the robot and finally exhaled deeply.
The others finally emerged from their hiding places and approached him.

"Wow.
that was...impressive." Said Phil

"Not really...Hulk was harder to beat." Said Logan

"Hulk?
what`s Hulk?" Said Angelica

"Trust me...your better off NOT KNOWING."

Just then, Wrath spoke again.

"Your stronger than I thought, Wolverine...
but, they`ll be MORE where that came from."

Logan turned and faced the Monitor.

"BRING IT ON, WRATH!
I can take anything you throw at me...ALWAYS HAVE, ALWAYS WILL."

Wrath just snickered.

"we`ll see."

The monitor then turned off.
The others looked at the destroyed robots, then back at Logan.

"So...what ARE these things?" Asked Stu Pickles

"Sentinels...Mutant Hunting Robots.
they were originally built by a Human Scientist named BOLIVAR TRASK." Said Logan

"I`ve heard of him...he`s a genius in robotics."

"He also hates Mutants like the plague."

"oh."

Logan approached one robot and glared at it.

"This isn`t the FIRST TIME I`ve fought these things...and, I was hoping it would be my LAST TIME."

"Last time?" Said Kimi

"The robots I just beat are nothing but PROTOTYPES.
REAL SENTIENLS are like something out of your nightmares."

"Come on!, how bad could they be?" Said Angelica

Logan glared at Angelica, his face right at hers.

"You remember that "Reptar" show you always watched as a kid?"

"yeah?..."

"Their something like THAT."

Angelica gulped hard.

"oh...I d-d-didn`t know that."

"Well...now you do."

Logan turned with a sharp sigh.

"The MRD causing problems is BAD ENOUGH...but Sentinels?
something is up, something BAD...and, I don`t like it."

Susie approached Logan.

"Logan...we weren`t the only ones who were captured by the MRD.
their were OTHERS, remember?...Other Mutants from Klasytown."

Logan shut his eyes, sighing sharply.

"Logan...we HAVE to rescue them."

Logan finally opend his eyes.
he turned and faced them.

"Yes...your right.
we can`t leave, yet...not until every mutant here is freed."

"WHAT!
You must be crazy!" Exclaimed Angelica

Chuckie faced her.

"Angelica, we can`t leave everyone behind...
think of what they did to us!, we can`t let them continue doing this to others."

Angelica sighed sharply.

"fine...
I guess there is no arguing with you."

Chuckie smiled.
Logan then walked off, who was followed by the others.

He approached a nearby Computer Console and activated it.

"Can you find the other Mutants?" Asked Lil

"Maybe...If I can bypass security."

"Lemme give it a try." Said Chuckie

Logan stepped back and let Chuckie at the console.
the red haired biy cracked his knuckles, then began typing into the keyboard.

"you really think you can do it, Chuck?" Said Tommy

"Please...this is child`s play." Said Chuckie as he worked

The computer then beeped.

"Bingo."

"Great job, son." Said Chas

Chuckie smiled sheepishly.

"thanks."

Logan and the others looked at the screen.

"What did you find?"

"Well...this console isn`t connected to the holding cells.
but, it DOES seem to contain some sensitive information."

"Like what?"

Chuckie examined the screen, It`s light reflecting off his glasses.

"Dunno...looks like some recordings of some kind."

Chuckie continued to look at them.

"whoa..."

"What?"

"I found some recordings here that is between General Wrath and someone else."

"Play them."

"You got it."

Chuckie pressed a button, playing the audio recordings.
they heard Gen. Wrath talking to SOMEONE, obviously reguarding Dil as a mutant and Wolverine.

Unfortunetly, they could not recognize who Wrath was talking to.

"Whose Wrath talking to?" Asked Lil

"Dunno...it`s voice is scambled."

"Then, UN-scramble it." Said Logan

"Okay..."

Chuckie began typing furiously.

"Almost got it...THERE!"

As the mysterious voice changed...Charlotte suddenly gasped.

"oh, my god...it can`t be!"

"What?" Said Logan

"It`s JOHNATHAN!"

"Whose Johnathan?"

"He was my assistant when I was head of Merger Corp.
but, I was laid-off and HE became the new CEO..."

Logan huffed.

"Well...it seems your old assistant sold us out to the MRD."

"I can`t believe he would do this..."

Logan looked at the woman.

"Any idea WHY he would?"

"NO!, of course not!"

"Surely it must be something.
did you do something to tick him off?"

Charlotte thinks a bit.

"Well...I did order him around alot."

"Constantly is more like it." Added Drew

Charlotte eyed her husband, then sighed.

"Okay, FINE...I treated him like a dog But, it was NEVER anything personal!"

Logan huffed.

"Maybe not for you.
but, judging our situation...it may of been personal for him."

Charlotte stared wide eyed, then she hung her head low.

"this is...my fault.
Johnathan brought the MRD to Klaskytown to get even with me, EVERYONE IS SUFFERING BECAUSE OF ME!"

Angelica grabbed her mother`s hand.

"MOTHER, CALM DOWN!"

"Yes, Charlotte...don`t be so hard on yourself." Said Didi

Charlotte sighed sharply...Then, Logan spoke.

"Look...It doesn`t matter HOW this happened.
what does matter is we are going to stop this, NOW."

Charlotte exhaled sharply.

"your right...I`m sorry."

Logan turned back to Chuckie.

"Chuck...can you use the console to locate the Holding Cells?"

"I can bring up a map.
but, that`s the best I can do from here..."

"Then, DO IT."

Chuckie began typing again.
a digital map appeared on-screen.

"Okay...we are HERE.
and, the holding cells should be...THERE."

The others examined this.

"that`s pretty far off." Said Phil

"Oh, THAT DOESN`T MATTER!
everyone needs a good jogging...keeps the blood pumping!" Said Betty DeVille

"I hate to jog." Said Howard DeVille

"well, unless you WANT the MRD to throw you back in a cell...you WILL." Said Logan forcefully

Howard gulped.
Logan then walked towards a door, the others followed him.

Popping out his claws, Logan tore the door down.
the group then continued on their way into a long hall.

Logan sniffed the air.

"I smell mutants...their THIS WAY."

As Logan walked off, Angelica looked at Susie.

"you know, HIS POWERS...are starting to freak me out."

"As long as it keep us alive, I`m not complaining."

The others follow Logan`s lead.
after several minutes of nothing happening...Phil finally speaks.

"Does anyone else find it STRANGE that nobody has attacked us, yet?"

"Are you saying you WANT us to be attacked, PHILIP!" Snapped Lil

"No, LILIAN...I`m just saying that it`s odd."

Logan growled quietly.

"Phil`s right, Lil...this feels like a trap."

"So...what do we do?" Said Kimi

"keep walking.
if they want to trap us, then I`ll spring it...and then make them wish they hadn`t."

"You always this willing to fight?" Asked Tommy

"only when I have to."

Just then, Humanoid Sentinels appeared from some corners.

"HALT!"

Everyone stopped, Logan just popped out his claws.

"Well...this explains the lack of guards." Said Lucy Carmichael

Logan just growled at the robots.

"Okay...LET`S DO THIS!"

Logan leaped forward, spining in mid-air like a corkscrew he colided with the Sentinel group, drilling through one and then others.

Logan got up and looked at all the robot parts laying on the ground.

"WOW!
COOL MOVE!" Said Dil

"Not one of my favorites." Said Logan

Logan continued to walk, the others followed.

They soon reached another door...which Logan easily tore down.
they were now in the holding cells, which were long corridors with energy barred cells.

"Whose that!" Exclaimed one Mutant

"Wait...Is that Wolverine!" Said another

"It IS!, IT`S WOLVERINE!"

Logan walked into the corridor with the others.

"Are you gonna FREE US!" asked one Mutant

"We will...once we find the computer console that controls your cells." Said Logan

"I think it`s in another room.
but, it`s guarded by Sentinel Robots!"

"They won`t be a problem." Said Logan, ran down the hall

"HANG TIGHT, GUYS!
We`ll set you free!" Said Susie as she and the others followed Logan

Logan soon reached a metal door and tore it down.
inside were some winding stairs that he figured lead to the console.

He and the others ran up them.

"Just like the STAIRMASTER back home, EH HOWIE?" Said Betty

Howard was sweating alot.

"Oh, Suck it up, you wimp!"

After awhile, they reached another door.
Logan slashed it top pieces and burst into the room.

"MUTANT DETECT-"

Logan slashed off a Sentinel`s head and stabbed another.
the others soon joined him and they all ran to the console.

Chuckie began to type into it.
a digital window appeared on-screen, showing the Mutant Prisoners from a security camera.

"Okay...THIS is the console that controls the holding pens."

"so...you can free them?" Said Logan

"Sure!
I just need to bypass some security."

After a few minutes, the computer beeped.

"There.
now, all we need to do...is push a button."

Logan smirked.

"I say we let Dil do the honors."

Dil smiled.

"OH, YEEEEEEEAH!"

Chuckie got up and Dil approached the console.

"Time to LET MY PEOPLE GO!"

Dil looked at the console.

"Uhhhhhhhhhhhh..."

"It`s THIS ONE." Said Chuckie, pointing at a button

"Oh!...I knew that!"

Dil pressed the button.
Everyone then watched on the screen as the energy walls decativated.

"WE`RE FREE!, WE`RE FREEEEEEE!" Exclaimed one Mutant

"WOLVERINE FREED US!" Said another

Logan grinned.

"Well, that`s one mission accomplished."

"One?" Said Angelica, confused

"As long as this facility is still standing...
those cells will be full again in a matter of days." Said Logan

Susie nodded

"Logan is RIGHT.
if the mutants are going to be safe, this place MUST COME DOWN!"

Angelica smirked.

"Wow, Carmichael.
I`ve never seen you so aggressive...I kinda like it!"

"taking away someone`s freedom just because their different ISN`T RIGHT, Angelica so, I think I am entitled to be angry at these MRD jerks and their bigotory beliefs."

Kimi Faced Logan.

"Logan, how are we going to destroy this place?
it`s pretty BIG, and even YOU can`t do it alone."

"Maybe he doesn`t have to..." Began Chuckie

Kimi looked at her brother.

"What do you mean?"

Chuckie was looking at the computer monitor.

"this facility requires MASSIVE amounts of power to keep it active.
especially if it`s purpose is to contain and control powerful mutants."

"What are you getting at, Chuck?" Said Logan

"Guys...this facility is in the middle of nowhere, no way it`s connected to a city power grid.
so, they must generate their own power...if we can find this power source and mess it up-"

"then, this whole place will blow to kingdom come." Finished Wolverine

"Exactly."

"Okay, so...where is this "Power Generator?" Asked Randy Carmichael

Chuckie typed into the computer.

"I think it`s HERE.
This place is HOT with power."

Everyone looked at the screen

"But...THAT`S CLEAR IN ANOTHER BUILDING!" Exclaimed Lil

"We`ll NEVER make it out in the open!" Said Tommy

"Not exactly..." began Logan

"The MRD had ALOT of mutant prisoners...some may not of came from Klaskytown alone.
when we freed them, we practicaly sent an army of rampaging mutant the MRD`s way."

"I get it!" Began Stu Pickles

"So, while the MRD are busy with THEM..."

"They won`t have to to deal with us." Finished Logan

Tommy crossed his arms.

"I don`t know...it sounds TOO EASY."

"then, it probably is...I`ll have to be CAREFUL." Said Logan

Kimi eyed Logan.

"YOU!"

Logan looked at her.

"Kimi, the exposion will be VERY LARGE...I can`t risk you guys getting hurt.
so, I will be going to the generator room...you guys are going to get as FAR AWAY as you possably can."

"BUT, YOU COULD BE KILLED!"

"Please...an explosion can`t kill me."

"Logan...I don`t like this."

"You have no choice, Kim...I am NOT risking your life!"

Kimi looked at Logan, then sighed sharply.

"Look, I`ll help get you guys to safety.
once you all reach the outter regions of the compound, you RUN into the woods...and, no looking back."

"fine...whatever you say." Said Kimi, who obviously didn`t like this

Logan huffed.

"Alright, LET`S GO!

[Later, Outside the Building]

Logan and the others ran outside the building...
they saw many Mutants using their powers to battle the MRD`s forces.

"whoa...It`s like WORLD WAR III out here!" Said Lil

Logan popped out his claws.

"The mutants need to get out of here, now!"

"But, how can we convinve them?
they seem to be distracted with your own thing." Said Susie

"WOLVERINE!"

Everyone looked to see a Teenaged boy run towards them.

"Who are you?"

"My name is COY, Coy Dragowulf.
I`m a mutant that you rescued."

"What can you do?" Asked Kimi

"I can control elements and I also of Mental abilities."

"Coy...we may need your help." Said Logan

"Anything...what do you need?"

"I`m going to destroy this entire place.
but, before I do...I need the mutants to get out of here."

"And, you want me to convince them, right?"

"can you do it?"

"I`ll try."

"Don`t TRY, DO."

Coy nodded.
he summoned a whirlwind and flew up into the air.

he then launched some lightning into the air, which made a thundering sound.

The other mutants stopped fighting.

"LISTEN!
THIS FACILITY IS GONNA BLOW SOON, WE NEED TO GET FAR AWAY FROM HERE...NOW!"

All the mutants immediatly ran for the nearest exit.
Coy then hovered over Logan and the others.

"Great job, coy."

"do you need anything else?"

"no...just get to safety, I`ll take care of things."

Coy nodded.
he then flew off and soon disappeared.

Logan turned to the others.

"COME ON!, Let`s go!"

Everyone ran forward, trying to get to the exit.
however, they are blocked by MRD Armored Trucks which drove up in front of them.

Logan growled.

"great..."

the trooper got out and wielded their guns at them.

"Well, well, well..." began a voice

They all looked to see General Wrath walk from behind the troopers.

"will these annoyances never cease?"

Logan growled at him.

"Stand aside, Wrath."

"Not a chance, Wolverine...you have gotten in my way for THE LAST TIME!"

Logan just snickered.

"oh, and I suppose your idea of "Stopping-Me-Once-And-For-All" is some of your boys!, PLEASE!"

"Oh, they aren`t going to fight you...I have a much more DELICIOUS way of putting you down."

"How so?"

Wrath just smirked, then paced around.

"Do you recall the "Super Soldier Serum", Wolverine?"

Logan eyed him, then huffed.

"Yeah...I do.
it was developped in World War II by an "Allied Scientist"...it created Captain America."

"Yes...a serum that was designed to create the PERFECT soldier.
humans that were FASTER, STRONGER, more AGILE and coudl ENDURE any type of punishment."

"What are you getting at, Wrath?"

Wrath smiled.

"Well...ever since that war, mankind has been trying to Re-Create that miracle."

Logan scoffed.

"That`s IMPOSSIBLE.
The scientist who created the original formula was killed...and his note destroyed."

"True...but, that didn`t stop goverments from trying ANYWAY."

"Oh, yeah...they TRIED alright.
but, all they did was succeed in creating MONSTERS."

Wrath then grinned evilly.

"yes...EXACTLY."

Wrath then pulled out a dart gun.

"and a "Monster" is exactly what can kill you, Wolverine.
Because, IT TAKES A MONSTER, TO DESTROY A MONSTER!"

Before Logan could react, Wrath fired his shot...at KIMI.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

Chuckie, out of reflex, shoved his sister out of the way the dart hit Chuckie in the neck and the vial connected to the dart injected a liquid into his body.

"CHUCKIE!" Exclaimed Angelica

Wrath snickered.

"well...that`s not what I expected.
oh, well...this should be "Fun", anyway..."

Chuckie pulled the dart out.
but, then...he groaned with pain.

"Ohhhh...I don`t feel so g-good."

Chuckie suddenly grasped his gut, flinching in pain.

"GAAHH!"

"CHUCKIE!, WHAT`S WRONG!" Said Angelic, who was worried

"I don`t...know.
I feel so-GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!"

Chuckie felt intense throbbing in his body.
like something wa sbuilding up inside him...and wanted to break free.

"Chuckie!
CHUCKIE, LOOK AT ME!"

Chuckie opened his eyes.
and, to Angelica`s shock...were glowing green.

"Chuckie...what-"

"Get...Get away.
something is...happening to me.
don`t know...what it I-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!"

Logan stared in shock at this.
he had a good idea what was happening...and, HOPED he was wrong.

"oh, no..."

Chuckie`s body began to change, muscles suddening growing.
his body mass increased, ripping up his clothes.

Everyone stepped back in shock and fear.
Finally, Chuckie`s glasses fell from his face and cracked upon impact.

Everyone stared in shock and terror at what Chuckie had turned into...
he now stood a few feet tall, was covered in large muscles, had messy hair and wore only shredded pants.

"c-chuckie?" said Angelica in disbelief

Chuckie turned, the expression on his monsterous face that of rage.

"!

Logan sighed sharply.

"oh, hell...not again."
