One Wolverine Too Many Chapter 5.
The X-Men (Storm, Gambit, Rogue, Nightcrawler, Jean Grey, Cyclops, Beast, Shadowcat and Colossus) and Sabretooth are boarded on the Blackbird as it rises out of the basketball court with Jean and Cyclops at the controls. And off they flew, reaching their destination in minutes. Suddenly, looking out his window, Beast growls seeing Daken below.
Hank looks out his window, seeing Daken searching through the rubble for Wolverine. "Well, if it isn't...Daken Akihiro" Beast growls under his breath. This would usually startle him since he doesn't act like that, until the last time the two met...in Venezuela, where the X-Men were trying to track a strange feral mutant around Nightcrawler's age.
Flashback start...
Hank point out a person moving into the forest and touches Logan's shoulder "Logan, is that him?" Logan looks at the teen disappear into the forest before sniffing his scent and narrowing his eyes "Yeah, good eye, Hank. Peter, Hank comes with me, everyone else stays here in case he comes back" Wolverine goes into the forest, the other two mutants barely being able to keep up with him. "How does he move so fast" Piotr says as the two finally catch up to Logan "I don't know, Peter" Hank answers "Wolverine sure is the strangest feral I've ever met."
Logan stops at a road in the forest leading down three paths, and having lost the kid's scent the three split up "Be careful here, guys and remember, my son Daken is lookin' for the runt too." Logan warns as the three nod to each other, each taking a different path.
Hank runs down the path on all fours "Please don't let Daken be here" he thought as he jumps to the treetops to get a better view. That's when he feels a hand caressing his fur, he knew full well who this was by the sound of his chuckle and the uneasy feeling he got from his pheromone manipulation abilities.
He turns around and swats away the hand "Why don't you go bury yourself in a hole somewhere, Daken?" he threatens but Daken only laughs "Now what did I ever do to the kindest X-Man. I didn't come for the feral kid, McCoy." Daken smirks as he pins Hank against a tree. "Why are you here then?" Hank growls slightly but Daken only chuckles "Heh. I came for you." Daken smile and kisses Hank on the side of his lips only for the stronger mutant, Hank to push him off "I'm sorry, Daken. I don't like men. I'm married and have kids" he states but Daken shakes his head "You're saying you don't love me, but your scent tells me the opposite" he smiles widely.
Hank raises an eyebrow "Something's not right here, Daken's here only for me? Hmm..." "I don't count my chickens before they hatch, Daken. Why is this kid so important to you anyway?" he says. Daken looks into the distance then hugs Hank "I'll tell you next time we meet, but only because I'm hoping for a more willing kiss next time" with that Daken leaves Hank nervous and unsure what to tell Wolverine.
Flashback ends...
They land near the park, only to find an enraged Daken rushing past them in search of Dark Wolverine. But then, he back tracks noticing Alternate Sabretooth with his old friend, Hank. That's when Wolverine appeared.
"You" Daken growls as Dark Wolverine smiles at him "Well, if it isn't Daken. Come give daddy a hug" he smiles spreading his arms. Sabretooth finally walks out of the shadows, grabbing an entranced Daken and flinging him back "I don't think so, monster." He growls as Wolverine growls back "How did he follow me here?!" he snarls "Well, I wasn't expecting you to rain in on my fun." He says as he steps closer to the group, his eye turning into yellow fiery rings as his sclera turns black "I was expecting to find this world's Wolverine, but his friends should do"
Suddenly Cyclops appears, preparing his strongest attack, but Wolverine only smirks with no intention of evading the onslaught.
"Your days are numbered, Wolverine" Cyclops says as his visor flashes angrily. Dark Wolverine turns to him with a demented look in his eye and tilts his head with a matching smile "Oh, really? I killed you in another dimension and I'll do it again." "Everyone, out of the way! NOW!" Scott yells as everyone obliges. Dark Wolverine has a raised eyebrow at Scott "What are you up to?" but he prepares for the worst.
"Mega Optic Blast!" Cyclops screams as he rips off his visor, sending out a large blast from his eye, completely engulfing Wolverine and decimating most of the landscape.
Meanwhile, elsewhere (original universe) Wolverine and the other counter-parts were watching everything unfold and Wolverine was angry beyond description at not being able to help the X-Men, knowing they were heavily outmatched before the fight had even started, even with Daken's help.
"Send me back there, NOW!" Wolverine rages out grabbing his Iron Man counter-part by the throat "Easy, Logan. Put. Me. Down." Iron-Wolverine glares at (original universe) Wolverine prompting the others to step back. Iron-Wolverine shoots the Uni-beam at Logan at point blank range, embedding him in the wall behind him with smoke and no sound.
Ghost Rider-Wolverine gets close to the smoke "What a dumbass" he smirks. Just then, (original universe) Wolverine's hand pops out grabbing his fiery head, crushing it to dust with one squeeze and throwing the body aside in a corner. Logan gets to his feet, eyes pupil-less in feral rage, his growl intensifies and reverberates through the room.
Hearing the noise, Hulk-Wolverine and Venom-Wolverine come to the room, Hulk-Wolverine breaks in, and only for (original universe) Wolverine to deliver an uppercut, sticking his head in the ceiling and a kick to the face sent Venom-Wolverine flying out of the room and into a wall.
He grabs Iron-Wolverine from behind, slamming his face against the carbonadium lined wall hard, and puts his rape-face on "Now, let me rephrase that last sentence" he growls more than speaks "I'm going back, with or without ya, unless you want yer dick where ya brain is s'posed ta be."
Logan then pops his claws on his free hand and reaches for Iron-Wolverine's crotch, but then he stops mere inches from grabbing his nuts "Alright, we'll go" he says knowing the man was dead serious and he preferred his privates where they were. Logan drops him and watches him get to his feet, not saying anything mainly because he was no longer in a talking mood.
Ghost Rider-Wolverine reconstructs his head before lighting it ablaze again, before pulling Hulk-Wolverine from the ceiling as Venom-Wolverine frees himself from the wall, he yawned and stretched (apparently he fell asleep after the fight) and when all the Wolverine counter-parts were assembled, Iron-Wolverine armors up and opens the portal on his side as well as the other side...
Scott stops the blast, only to find Dark Wolverine completely fine and laughing, beside some minor bruises and his clothes charred. "No" Cyclops uttered falling to the ground, Dark Wolverine walks over to him "That isn't the best you've got, is it?"
He suddenly stops, hearing an almost ear-splitting screech, he growls at Scott "Looks like you die first" before charging at him at top speed. A portal opens and out of it, a unibeam hits Dark Wolverine square in the ribs, knocking him aside.
"Vait, is zat Tony Stark?" Kurt asks looking at the portal, then Hank who isn't sure but warns them "We have to be ready for whatever is on the other side of that portal" he warns.
That's when all the alternate Wolverines walk out of the portal one by one, surprising everyone but Alternate Sabretooth who was only pissed that they took so long.
"Where's that sonuvabitch?!" Carnage-Wolverine pops out of the portal, while Venom-Wolverine walks over to the X-Men. "Wolver—wait what are you exactly?" Kurt stops from trying to hug Venom-Wolverine.
Venom-Wolverine grabs Kurt by the scruff of his uniform, he struggles thinking he'll die. "Get a grip, will ya?" Venom-Wolverine scolds him and he stop flailing "What—who are you?" Kurt says as Venom-Wolverine easily evades a lightning bolt shot at his head by Storm. "I am Wolverine, just not your Wolverine, call me Venom-Wolverine." He says before putting Kurt down and running off with slight bow. He runs off, over to Carnage-Wolverine, slapping him in the back of his head "What was that for?" he groans as Venom-Wolverine glares at him "Did ya have ta scare the livin' shit outta everybody with all that screechin'?"
"Hmm" Jean says "Is it me or does Logan make a sexy Hulk?" everyone falls down anime-style, as Hulk-Wolverine looks in their direction and Jean immediately looks in another direction, blushing.
"Am I late?" (Original universe) Logan says as they all come over to the X-Men, which pisses Daken off as he pushes the X-Men "Move. Are you late? You fondled me in bed and are you late?!" Daken growls as Logan sweatdrops "Did I hit you too hard on the coconut or something, Daken? What are you talking about?" Logan says knocking his knuckle on Daken's head "What do you mean I 'fondled' you?" Logan raises a confused eyebrow, hoping it isn't what he thinks it is.
"We had sex, then I found myself tied to a pole butt fuckin' naked!" Daken says, now pissed "Care to explain that?!"
Logan points at Dark Wolverine "Was I able to manipulate pheromones and had red eyes?" Daken nods as Wolverine growls "Well, then he's the guy you should blame" Daken looks at Dark Wolverine, who smiles widely back at him, making Daken cringe.
Wolverine waves his hand across Daken's face, receiving no reaction "Daken? Is somethin' wrong?" he says worriedly but Daken snaps himself out of it "I'm fine" Daken says "but what is the Hulk doing here?"
"That's not Hulk, he's another alternate me, with the power and temper to match of the Hulk" Wolverine explains. Daken takes that and walks away as Wolverine now turns his attention to the real reason he came home, Dark Wolverine.
A/N – Next time, Wolverine vs Dark Wolverine. Not a fight to be missed.
Original Universe Sabretooth looks at the fight about to begin and can't help but smile from the tree he stood on "Now, this is interesting. The runt has been busy in my absence, I see." Sabretooth chuckles knowing he's well out of Logan's range, until Dark Wolverine turns his head looking him in the eye with a frown, before looking back at the Original Universe Wolverine. Victor growls inwardly "How did he know I was here?" but he sits and waits for his chance to strike.
