Chapter 10

Ok, sorry guys. I can't finish, our computer's still broken. But, I can give you the ending at least.

When Adrian wakes up, she findsherself outside in the snow. She can't remember anything that might have happened in the last few days, but she notices a small sliver of a scar on her side. She starts out for the X-Mansion, but remembers Logan, and heads the other way.

Back at the mansion, Xavier and the other mutants are ready to head out toward Alkali Base. They go in the jet and get there pretty quickly. They land far away, but not so far away thatStriker's men don't notice them. They're swamped with Striker's army in almost no time.

Adrian, though, isn't so far away that she doesn't hear the fighting. She turns around, and when she can tell that the mutants are about to lose, she heads back, unable to just leave Logan.

She enters the fight, and her newfound ability to channel emotion into destructive power helps her barrel her way to them. When she sees that Logan is not with the rest of the group, she immediatly searches for him.

She finds him not too far away from the rest of the group, cornered by a large horde of Striker's men. She starts to fight them, but as soon as she gets too close to Logan, it's like she goes into kill-mode. She wipes out the troop of soldiers, and starts attacking Logan. Inside her mind she's screaming at herself to stop, but she's on auto-pilot now, and soon she remembers bits and fragments of the last few days. She now knows the scar was from another operation. She's now programmed to kill the Wolverine.

She does everything she can but it's useless. She's quicker than Logan, which means that she has a big advantage on him. Just as she's about to go for the kill, she does the last thing she can think of to stop herself: she uses her emotion channeling powers to move the ground under her feet. She immediatly falls, and Logan has the advantage.

Of course, even though she was about to kill him, he would never kill her. But lucky for him, that one fall knocked her senses back into her. She doesn't attack again.

Logan lifts her up. But he doesn't know about the decision she'd secretly made to herself. She knows she can't just run, and she knows she's programmed to kill him, something she would never do.

So she decides to protect him by killing herself.

First though, she wanted one last taste of him. They kiss, but when he releases her, she commits her act of suicide too quickly for him to stop her. She plunges her claws into her stomach, and rips her vital organs so she'll die.

The mutants manage to escape with nothing but their lives and Adrians body. Logan doesn't say a word.

In the next scene, Logan is in his dorm, packing his things. Outside his window, a small funeral is being held, but he doesn't go. He hears a knock on the door, and it's Storm. She tells him Xavier wants him in his office. Reluctantly, Logan goes.

In the office, Xavier reveals about Cougar, who was created by Striker to track him and bring him back to Alkali Base. Logan is about to leave, but Xavier tells him one more thing. Though it is only a theory, Xavier believes that Adrian's emotional channeling was actually sending parts of herself. Because this happened at moments of extreme emotion, and suicide was a strong emotion, she might have sent her entire entity out. If this emotional entity was sent into an inanimate object, it would result in an explosion. But if it had been sent into a human, she could still be alive, the same person in a different body.

Logan, with this tiny glimmer of hope, sets out.

The last scene takes place in a small town in West Virginia. Slowly awakening, Adrian looks around, confused. She wonders what had happened, as she thought she'd killed herself. Could it all have been a dream?

But she knows it wasn't a dream when she looks in a mirror. Because instead of seeing herself, she sees a woman with olive skin and black hair. Someone else. She's confused, and a bit scared. So she does the only thing she knows how: She runs.

The last part is Adrian, leaving for whatever awaited her, trying to figure out what happened. But whatever it was, she was sure it wasn't a dream.

Because she knows she's in love.
