For those who don't know: agonistic behavior describes the fight for dominance between two males in a pack of animals (any social animals, not just wolves).
The next day Wolf showed up to Logan's class on time, but he his attitude was no better.
"Okay," Logan started, "Today we're going to practice a few defensive moves. After seeing you guys yesterday I think some of you need them. You especially, Pyro."
"What?!" Pyro asked indignantly, "My defense was FINE yesterday! You didn't even hit me!"
"No I didn't, but sometimes you just won't want or be able to burn everything in sight," Logan said, rolling his eyes.
Pyro huffed.
Logan raised an eyebrow. "Something wrong?"
"No," Pyro said, looking down.
Wolf looked at his friend, hating how he reacted to this guy. Well, he was gonna prove to them once and for all that Logan was not a threat.
"Yeah, there is something wrong!" Wolf said, speaking up.
Logan looked at him. Was he gonna start a fight this early? Well, he certainly was showing all the aggressive signs, the main one being the way he was looking at Logan straight in the eyes.
"Oh, really?" Logan asked, sounding casual, but he kept up the staring contest. To look away was a sign of submission.
Wolf got even more aggressive. "You can't just tell us what to do! There's no way I'm just gonna stand around and do some stupid little exercise!"
"Is that so?"
"Yeah! You are not my boss!"
Logan sighed. "Do you want to fight me, Wolf?"
Wolf paused, slightly startled. "I thought you said I couldn't fight you yet!"
"Changed my mind," Logan said simply. The rest of the students watched all this, open-mouthed.
Wolf grinned. "All right!" He started to crouch down.
"Wait a minute," Logan said.
Wolf looked at him impatiently.
"Before we begin I have a few rules that you need to follow first."
"What are they?" Wolf growled suspiciously.
A few students looked at him questioningly. He'd never made rules for a fight like that before.
"First," Logan said, "When you are fighting me you must be in wolf form. As soon as you transform back into a human that will be a sign of submission, which means you give up. Second: if you attack me after yielding, then I will give you a spanking afterwords. Third: you are absolutely not allowed to attack my balls or make me bleed at all. You do either of those, even if it's just a drop of blood, then afterwords I will spank you."
"How the heck am I supposed to beat you if I can't make you bleed?!" Wolf asked.
"I'm getting to that," Logan said, "Don't interrupt me. Now, fourth: if and when I beat you, afterwords you will have to submit completely to me until the end of class. That means you have to do exactly as I say, without complaining. If you don't-"
"Yeah, yeah, I know," Wolf interrupted, "If I don't you'll spank me. Big deal. That's for little kids. I'm fifteen, far too old for that now. I'm sure it's nothing I can't handle."
Logan looked at him amused. "We'll see. Now, there is a way to get away from the rules: kill me. If you kill me then I'm not gonna punish you for making me bleed or anything like that. The only thing that I will still punish you for is attacking after submission, because that is cheating. And I absolutely will not forgive you if you damage my balls. There, that's all of them. Any questions?"
"Yeah," Wolf said, "Are you ready to die?" He turned himself into a wolf.
Logan chuckled. "Oh, I doubt that."
Wolf came at him, full force. Logan sidestepped him and gave him a little sidekick, not enough force to seriously hurt him, but enough to throw him of balance, toppling sideways. Wolf quickly recovered and came running right back. Logan raised an eyebrow. Well, he's certainly determined. This time he let Wolf get close to see what kind of attack he would use. Wolf jumped right for his throat. Logan easily swung his arm up to push Wolf out of the way, but he accidentally sent him flying into a wall. Wolf bounced back onto his feet, shook his head, then slowly began to circle Logan.
I see what Chuck means, Logan thought, He took that without pausing! I really am gonna have to be tough!
Wolf watched Logan carefully. So far that stupid teacher had actually been pretty good at fighting. He managed to make Wolf look like a clumsy idiot. He growled inwardly. Logan and his stupid rules. If he was going to draw blood, he'd better make it count. Then a deep, primal voice inside of him told him forget the rules! At any cost, you want blood!
Logan did not expect what happened next. Wolf came running at him and lunged. Logan assumed he was going for his throat again so he put his arm up to block. The next thing he knew there was intense pain in his groin.
"Ah!" he yelled, falling backwards as Wolf dug his teeth in deeper and began to shake his head back and forth.
Logan finally managed to get his foot under Wolf's chest and kick him away. Then he was extremely grateful that his X-men suit had been made to regenerate as his own body did, because otherwise his students would be seeing something he was sure they didn't want to see.
Wolf took advantage of Logan's position on the ground and he went to attack Logan's face. However, before he could reach it two hands gripped his muzzle and he felt himself flipped onto his back. He began to squirm, but an arm wrapped around his neck, stopping his movements and cutting off his air.
"You gonna give up now?" Logan asked from behind, his voice right next to Wolf's ear. Normally he would not try something as extreme as choking when it came to his students, but he needed to be extreme with Wolf. Plus, he was a little ticked that this brat had the nerve to attack his groin like that.
Wolf tried everything to get away, but Logan was too strong and he was running out of air. Reluctantly he turned himself back to human form.
"Does this mean you give up?" Logan asked calmly, still keeping his arm around Wolf's neck.
Wolf nodded frantically, squirming around, trying to breathe.
"Calm down. Then I'll let go."
Wolf relaxed as best as he could. Logan immediately released him.
Wolf crouched, gasping for breath. He didn't notice when Logan got up and moved a chair from a corner of the room to the center. He did, however, notice when he was picked up and slung over Logan's shoulder.
"What're you doing?!" He asked.
"I'm giving you exactly what I said I would," Logan said calmly, sitting down and throwing Wolf face-down across his lap.
"Oh h*ll," Wolf cursed when he realized what was going on.
