Wolverine stood puffing a cigar with an unfocused air.
Wolverine: I want t'make it clear that I'm only here cause ya got someone so pretty ta ask me so nicely, an' I don't aim ta do more'n listen.
Wolverine gestured with a tight smile to Heather Hudson, who leaned behind him. A Mr. lab technician man stood facing some monitors displaying hallway scenes of carnage and broken equipment.
Mr. Man: Understood Mr. Logan, but I think even you will see the need to recapture experiment 219, codename: Tigress. The subject--
A hard gleam materialized in Wolverine's eye.
Wolverine: 'Experiment'? I thought your days o 'experimentin' were over.
The Mr. Man didn't notice the edge that had crept into Wolverine's voice. He continued emotionlessly,
Mr. Man: Subject 219 is not a person. 219 was created here using Sabretooth's DNA as a template--
Wolverine grabbed Mr. Man's by the collar and snarled down at him.
Wolverine: SABRETOOTH?? Ya gotta be kidding me! You people are tryin ta make more Sabretooths!??
Mr. Man, surprised, with glasses askew,
Mr. Man: Controllable one's I assure you--
At this Wolverine extended his claws, but Heather placed a restraining hand on his shoulder.
Heather: Logan, wait! Hear him out!
Logan gave Heather a dark look over his shoulder.
Wolverine: Heather, you of all people should've known how I'd have feel about draggin' some 'escaped experiment' back to Department H! How could you even ask me to come here?
Heather: Logan, that's not fair.
Wolverine: 'Couple of years ago that 'experiment' mighta been me.
Heather pulled Logan aside from the Mr. Technician Man,
Heather: Look, I just found out about this myself. I never knew that Department H had gotten back into the human weapons business, and I agree that they should have to lie in the hole they dug. But 219 is a killing machine loose among innocent people and they shouldn't be the ones to pay for Department H's mistake. 219 has killed three people since its escape and many more will follow if it isn't recaptured.
Wolverine straightened and puffed angrily on his cigar.
Wolverine: I hate t'admit it, but ya have a point. And I suppose I'm the only one with a chance of trackin' him down and overpowerin' him?
Heather: Of course, I wouldn't ask this of you otherwise. …And Logan, I want you to remember,
Heather touched Logan sympathetically,
Heather: 219 wasn't some poor slob who was dragged off the streets. 219 was created here and never developed as a person, just as the killing machine Department H wanted.
Logan turned back to the Mr. Man,
Wolverine: '219' huh? Does that mean there's two-hundred and eighteen more 'experiments' hidin' in the basement?
Mr. Man straightened his clothing with an affronted air.
Mr. Man: No. 219 is the only one that has survived so far.
Wolverine: 'Survived so far' huh?
The angry gleam returned with a vengeance.
Wolverine: You should know, after I'm done with Tigress, I'm coming after you.
