Not a lot of things ran through Logan's head. For years, he tried to calm himself, move on from his troubled past and the cinstant pain he's dealt with. But that's a problem, since he's locked in a cage in a world of talking ponies. His gloved hands gripped the bars as hard as he could, and despite the shocking pain that jolted through his body he attempted to break them apart.

Wolverine screamed, trying to push through the massive pain. Alas, he released his grip on the hardened crystals, smoke literally seen coming from them and his palms. He could feel the skin burnt off, which luckily would regenerate in a minute or two.

Hoofsteps, Logan noticed. He sat down and growled, rubbing his aching wrists all the while and removing his gloves, seeing the red flesh down his palm. He watched as it healed back in record time. With a sigh, he placed the glove back on his hand and raised his gaze.

Standing on the other end was Twilight, a stern glare on her features. With a sneer, Wolverine spat a simple question, "What the hell do ya want now?"

A metal tray dropped onto Wolverine's lap, a cheese sandwich. He gave her a thin smirk, "Heh, didn't think you'd be offering prison service. I'd have come a long time ago had I known."

"I'm feeding you, because unlike you, I'm not a monster." Twilight replied in a cold tone.

Wolverine held the small sandwich in his hands, "Didn't think you'd know me so well fer someone I just met. Honestly, doll, I just showed up here and yer trustin' the word of some random strangers that shouldn't have been near me. Honestly, wouldn't trust me either."

The alicorn sighed sharply, "I know of you, because you attacked me. Yet somehow you have become more self aware and sentient than what I remember in our first encounter." she paused, "I just want to know why you're out looking to shed blood in our world. You already hurt my friend and nearly killed her."

"Ya want me to talk, but I've said all I needed." Logan replied while taking a first bite. "Whatever you dealt with ain't me. Simple as that. Had nothin' to do with yer friend."

Twilight tapped her chin, "Alright then, those claws. They come out of your hands, just like the same thing I fought."

"Again, whatever the hell you dealt with, wasn't me. May got the claws and the mug, but I sure as hell won't use 'em to kill someone who didn't have it comin'." he admitted. "But yer sure tryin' my patience to prove me otherwise."

The alicorn glared at the X-Man as he continued, "Listen, darlin'. Whatever freak'a nature ya fought ain't me. I just got here, found my way to the castle hopin' to get answers at least or a fucking map. I'm trackin' someone down, and if none of ya ain't willin' to believe me then I guess I gotta handle things on my own again. Believe it or not, I'm tryin' to save your world."

"And how? You're trapped in that cage. Those crystals are meant to give out a volt so strong you'll want to be contained." Twilight elaborated. "So explain. Who are you following?"

Wolverine shrugged, "Not sure. It's why I came here. Was rescuing a kid and told me about someone comin' to this world or somethin'."

Once she heard that sentence, the lavender alicorn tilted her head, "... Saving a kid?"

Logan leaned his head back, lightly touching the wall. "Ain't yer concern. Just gotta know some bad people were after him. Found myself here next. Landed in some kinda pool in a cave or somethin' like that. Took a day to get here. Then ya lock me up like I'm some kinda animal." he gave her a defiant smirk, "Smart choice."

The alicorn blinked, having listened intently, "..." she paused, choosing her words carefully, "...How can I trust you're telling the truth?" she wondered.

Wolverine exhaled, "Should'a known it'd be hard to convince ya. Tell ya what? You let me out, I won't use my claws on ya unless you decide to get violent. Cause trust me... I know a thing or two about that." he suggested.

"Is that a threat?"

"Is it?" Wolverine retorted, "I actually ain't up fer mind games, pony. Just let me out of the freaking cage." he gripped the bars again, feeling electricity get sent down his body, "GRAH!" he let go, smoke appearing on his fingers again.

"You can heal..."

"Yeah, wanna make a big deal out of it?" Logan responded.

"So can that beast I faced... The evidence is turning against your favor, Wolverine."

Wolverine scowled, "...How the hell do you know that name?"

"That's what you said when we met. Beserk Wolverine." Twilight stated factually. "I deduced it had to be a codename after some thinking when our last encounter ended."

Once he heard that, the mutant responded, "Yer really starting to get on my last damn nerve." and then Wolverine sniffed, hoping to get a new scent in an attempt to piece things together. It was strange. He could smell the blood of someone familiar, and another one that was planted on Twilight. He thought he recognized it, yet at the same time it was hard to pinpoint. Whatever it was definitely shared something in common with him, "Shit." he cursed. He needed to find whatever this was, cause it wasn't gonna be as easy.

"What's wrong?" Twilight asked.

"You better let me out, bub. I ain't able to figure out who are what attacked ya. It's scent is too foreign. Can't track it properly to get a good clue. Shit." Wolverine cursed, "Got too much to deal with already."

"Track scents?" Twilight asked.

Logan shook his head, "Yep. But I ain't spillin' those details."

'He seems determined that it wasn't him, and seems to know something about it.' Twilight thought, 'Maybe it was...' she cleared her throat one more time, "Okay, I will, but I want to ask you one more question. You said you fell into a pool... Where was that exactly?"

Wolverine grunted, "Some kinda cave. Ended up in a forest after cuttin' some barrier wood. So what? Yer suddenly gonna trust me outta the blue just because of that? I didn't think anyone would give a shit."

The alicorn pursed her lips as her eyes widened, "...Oh no."

"The hell is wrong with you?"

"It wasn't you... I know what it was now."

Beserk Wolverine sniffed the air, able to still trace the scent of blood from the purple pony. He leaned a hand on the trunk of a tree and sniffed it. He needed to find her. To make her pay for having him lose track of his kill. He needed it, the lust for blood.

He squinted in the dim sunlight as his feral thoughts ran rampant. Predator against prey. It was in his nature. He knew nothing else. He let out a grunt. He smelled more ponies. It took sometime, but it was time to kill once again.

SNIKT!

"Fucking hell." Wolverine cursed, Twilight having explained everything. He was cloned from something called the Mirror Pool, "Listen, ya gotta let me out. Whatever's out there is gonna come fer ya. It will have no emotion. No remorse. It won't matter who it kills. Just let me free, and I'll stop it."

Twilight tapped her chin, pondering her options. She wondered if Wolverine will follow his word, then realized that he may have been the good guy this whole time. She needed help if she and her friends were going to stop this fake Wolverine. The Beserk Wolverine as she called it now, having apparently met the real deal. With a sigh, she removed the bars with her magic, allowing Logan to stand up, "Alright fine... I'll let you out so you can help--"

SNIKT!

Twilight was surprised when she saw three metal blades and her reflection staring at her. She gulped, "Listen, bub. Don't ever fucking lock me up again. Understand? This is my battle, and I ain't gonna get dragged down by some ponies tryin' to bark orders. Do anything that stupid again, I'll cut ya."

With that said, Wolverine retracted his claws and walked out, kicking the door open and finding himself in a hall. At the end of the hall, the dragon asked, "You're already free?"

"Friend'a yours let me out. Should probably go. Looked like somethin' spooked her." Logan said with a thin smile. Spike ran off the other room, leaving Wolverine to his own devices.

The X-Man opened the door and sniffed, "Shit... this is gonna be harder than I thought. Gotta get movin' before that pony gets the idea to follow."
