Logan stood guard in the watch tower, overlooking the base. He took a long drag of his cigar, and blew it out. Nothing unusual, he thought, as he looked at his watch. He was about to walk down and switch with someone, when there was a large commotion outside the main gate. He readied his gun, in case there was trouble coming; but, he paused when he saw what was going on.

Several soldiers were dragging- or trying to drag- a woman onto the base. Her wrists were bound by a cable cord, and her eyes were glowing white- the same color as her hair that was billowing in the wind.

The wind picked up in stregnth, and before he could blink, the woman was up in the sky, yanking the cord that her captors dragged her by from their grasp. Thunder crashed and lightning struck all around them, injuring a few. However, as soon as it began, it had ended. Something his the woman and she fell limply to the ground.

An elite group of soldiers were selected to go down to the cell where the woman was being held: Agent Zero, Wade Wilson- aka, Deadpool; Victor Creed, John Wraith, and Logan. "She's a real beauty," Wade commented.

"Down boy," John said.

Victor snickered approaching her and forcing her to look at him. "Wonder what it's gonna take to break a pretty little thing like you," he mused. The woman twitched out of his grasp, and with one look, she spat in his face. Victor was very amused as he wiped her saliva off of him. "Feisty little thing," he said, trailing his fingers down her cheek. "I li-" he roared in pain as she bit him in between the index finger and the thumb. With a glare, he prepared to swipe at her, when General William Stryker stopped him.

"I prefer my specimens unharmed, Victor," Stryker said. Victor growled, but backed off; Logan was secretly smirking while John was shaking his head. "Meet the village 'deity', boys. She's the key to getting more adamantium."

"How so?" Agent Zero asked.

"The villagers will give us whatever we want in exchange for their Goddess."

"She's a Goddesss?"Wade demanded, dropping to his knees and bowing before her. "I am unworthy-"

"Get up, Wilson," William ordered. The woman rolled her eyes. "The villagers don't know what a mutant is. So, naturally, they assumed she was a goddess."

"What about her powers?" Agent Zero asked.

"We have her partially sedated, so that it's difficult to gain access to her powers. Now, who will have first watch with her?"

"I will!" Wade said.

"In your dreams, motor mouth," Logan said. "I'll stay with her first. I think I might be able to get her to talk."

"Alright, Logan," William said with a nod. The rest of the team walked out.

Logan stood at one end of the cell while the woman was tied up at the other. He took a drag of his cigar and looked at her closely. He could tell one thing: this woman was a fighter, and won't reveal anything even if her life depended on it. "Look, if you're thinking I'm gonna interrogate you, I'm not."

"Mimi najua kile wewe ni mipango ya kufanya, wewe unataka kutesa majibu nje ya mimi."

"Hapana, darlin ', mimi kamwe kufanya jambo kama hilo," Logan replied in swahili, much to the woman's surprise.

"Wewe kusema swahili?"

"Ndiyo, na wewe kuelewa Kiingereza," Logan declared.

The woman looked at him stunned for a moment. "You're right, I do."

"What's your name?"

"Ororo."

"That means Beautiful or Beauty, right?"

"Yes."

"It suits you."

"Thank you."

They looked at each other in a tense silence for a moment. "What do they want with me?" she asked.

"I have no idea, darlin'."

"What is your name?"

"Logan."

"What are you doing with them, Logan?" she asked curiously.

"What do you mean?"

"I mean what are you doing with them? You don't seem anything like them. You have a sense of honor amongst yourself. You and the other man that was standing next to you."

"I wanted to serve my country."

Ororo looked at him a bit longer then looked away. The door to the cell block opened. "Logan, got some food for the pretty girl," John said.

"Alright, John," Logan replied, taking the tray from him and giving it to Ororo. "When do I trade off?"

"In the next few minutes," John replied. "Victor is coming in after you. The General thinks he could make her talk."

Logan froze; he knew exactly what Victor would do to make her talk, and he was going to talk to the General to make sure it didn't happen. "I'm gonna have a talk with him," Logan replied. "Make sure Victor doesn't do anything stupid while she's in here with him."

"Got it, Logan," John replied, leaving. "Might want to get out, Logan, Victor's here."

"We'll finish this conversation later," he told Ororo as he walked out.

Mimi najua kile wewe ni mipango ya kufanya, wewe unataka kutesa majibu nje ya mimi.=I know what you're planning to do, you want to torture the answers out of me.

Hapana, darlin ', mimi kamwe kufanya jambo kama hilo.= No, darlin', I would never do such a thing.

Wewe kusema swahili= You speak swahili

Ndiyo, na wewe kuelewa Kiingereza= yes, and you understand English.
