The Rebirth of the Wolverine 1

It had been a month since Tony Stark's rescue, and the world was still turning just as it had in the movies—Stark was becoming the Iron Man and killing some terrorists, and Obadiah Stane was plotting his downfall.

But beneath the surface, other plans were being set into motion.

**Basement of the Logan Enterprises**

Deep within the basement of Logan Enterprises, Logan and Kara stood in the observatory, watching intently as a group of betas and Zetas—werewolves turned by Logan and Kara—worked diligently on an intricate magical ritual.

The laboratory around them was a marvel of engineering and mysticism combined. Advanced technology interlaced with arcane symbols covered the walls, giving the room an eerie, yet powerful atmosphere. The metallic container, designed to house Logan during the infusion process, loomed over them.

The betas, empowered with a fraction of Logan's strength, were placing heavy metallic tank was being lowered into place, while the Zetas turned by Kara we're carefully drawing a massive magic circle on the floor.

Kara who became the master of mystic arts and the Luna of the Crescent Pack, had given rise to a new breed of werewolves within their ranks—the Zetas. These werewolves, unlike the others, could use magic more efficiently, and they were the ones responsible for the arcane rituals that would make this transformation possible.

The tank was a behemoth, large enough to accommodate Logan's considerable size. It was made of the strongest alloys, but its true power lay in what it would soon hold—vibranium, the rarest and most durable metal on Earth.

Kara, standing beside Logan, glanced up at him, her black eyes reflecting the soft glow of the ritual circle. "Why the rush, Logan? You've been patient for so long. What's changed?"

Logan, his gaze fixed on the metallic tank, replied, "We've been searching for the Mysterium metal for decades, but it's nowhere to be found. I wanted it for my exoskeleton, but now, with the world about to change, I need to use what I have at hand."

He reached out and pressed a button on the control panel in front of him. With a low hum, a hidden compartment opened, revealing a ton of vibranium—enough to reshape his entire skeleton and more. He picked up a piece of the metal, feeling its weight and light weight of it.

Logan knew that with the birth of Iron Man, the MCU was beginning in earnest. As he was now, he was no match for the likes of Hulk, Thor, or even the approaching threat of Thanos. He needed more power—power that could only come from transforming his body into something stronger, something indestructible.

Logan had spent centuries preparing for this moment. His journey had taken him across the world, learning from masters of chi manipulation in China and martial arts in Japan.

With the chi techniques, he strengthened his claws, combined with martial arts he became deadly fighter. But he knows it was not enough in the big play.

His quest for power had even brought him to Bleecker Street, where he sought out the Ancient One to learn the mystic arts.

But magic had proven to be a slow and difficult path for Logan.

Unlike Kara, who had taken to the mystic arts with an almost unnatural talent, Logan's progress had been frustratingly slow. It was only through decades of study and practice, with Kara's help, that he had managed to perform rituals to strengthen his bones further and enhance his already formidable abilities.

His claws, once mere bone, had become more durable, capable of cutting through most metals—but they were still not enough to challenge the likes of vibranium or adamantium.

His search for the legendary Mysterium metal—a substance that, in the comics, Tony Stark had used to create a nearly indestructible armor—had come up empty.

Despite scouring the Earth, Logan had found no trace of it. But he had not given up. He had turned some of his most promising betas into scientists, charging them with creating an adamantium alloy. Progress was slow, but steady.

Years ago, Logan had managed to acquire a large quantity of vibranium from Ulysses Klaue, a thief who had stolen it from Wakanda. The price had been steep, but Logan considered it worth every penny.

With the vibranium in hand, he and his pack had begun simulating the process of infusing it into his skeleton. It had taken years of calculations, magical preparations, and numerous failed attempts, but now, they were finally ready.

As Logan stared at the vibranium in his hand, he remembered his long journey—the battles fought, the knowledge gained, the sacrifices made.

He had turned those with potential into members of his pack, creating a small army of scientists, engineers, and warriors. Together, they had worked tirelessly to reach this point.

The simulations, conducted by his scientists and augmented by Kara's magic rituals, had revealed the incredible potential of the vibranium infusion.

By embedding vibranium into his skeleton and combining it with runes engraved into both the metal and his flesh, Logan stood to gain powers far beyond what he had imagined.

According to their calculations, the vibranium, when bonded with his enhanced bones, would not only make his skeleton virtually indestructible but also grant him the ability to manipulate kinetic energy. Each time Logan absorbed impact, his body would store the energy within the vibranium, converting it into pure power that he could release at will.

Furthermore, the runes engraved into his skeleton and body were designed to channel this stored energy, giving Logan the ability to unleash devastating blasts of kinetic force and even telekinesis is possible.

These runes, combined with the natural regenerative properties of his werewolf and Wolverine traits, would ensure that his body could withstand the immense power he wield.

"Logan," Kara's voice pulled him back to the present. He looked down at her, seeing the concern in her eyes.

"What is it?" he asked, his voice calm but firm.

"Are you sure you want to go through with this? Once the process starts, there's no turning back," she said, placing a hand on his arm.

Logan nodded, his resolve unshaken. "I've been preparing for this for a long time. It's time for me to be reborn."

Kara nodded, her expression softening. "We'll do it tomorrow night, then. The full moon will be at its peak. Our magic will be strongest at that time."

Logan glanced at the tank one last time, then back at Kara. "Good. Let's get everything ready. Tomorrow night, the Wolverine will be reborn."

Kara squeezed his arm, offering a small smile. "I'll make sure everything is perfect. The Zetas and I will be ready."

Logan returned the smile as they left the lab.

Logan and Kara exited the lab, the cool air of the underground facility brushing against their skin. The weight of what was about to happen hung between them, it was a necessary step in their journey.

As they walked through the corridors lined with high-tech equipment and ancient magical artifacts, Kara broke the silence.

"Have you heard from Natasha?" she asked, her voice tinged with curiosity and a hint of concern.

Logan gave a small nod, his expression thoughtful. "She's in Russia with Clint, finishing up a mission."

Kara sighed softly, her black eyes meeting Logan's. "You should just turn her already, Logan. You know she's your mate. You've known it for years."

Logan paused, leaning against the wall, crossing his arms over his broad chest. "I know," he admitted, his voice carrying the weight of the truth he had long kept to himself. "But she doesn't. Not yet."

Werewolves, particularly those of Logan's lineage, possessed a unique Mate Bond—a mystical connection that told them when they had found their destined partner.

For most, finding more than one mate was a rarity. But Logan, with his extraordinary nature, had been fated for more than one.

When he first met Natasha Romanoff, he had felt the bond instantly. The connection was undeniable, even if she didn't know it yet.

"She'll have to know eventually," Kara pointed out, her tone gentle but firm. "You've been delaying it for too long. She deserves to know the truth."

Logan's mind drifted back to the moment he had first met Natasha. She had been on a mission for the Red Room, she's an assassin with a deadly reputation.

S.H.I.E.L.D. had sent Clint Barton, the archer known as Hawkeye, to eliminate her. But Logan had intervened. He couldn't let her die, not when he knew what she truly was to him.

Together, they had fought against the Red Room, tearing it down from the inside. But Logan knew they hadn't truly destroyed it.

The organization was too entrenched, too deeply rooted in the shadows. He swore he comes back when he has enough power to crush it to the ground completely.

He had taken some of the surviving widows under his protection, turning them into his betas and helping them find a place in society. Natasha, however, had chosen a different path.

He had offered her the chance to join him, to become part of his pack, but she had refused. She said she needed to atone for her past, to redeem herself for the countless lives she had taken under the Red Room's influence. So, she joined S.H.I.E.L.D., finding a new purpose under the guidance of Clint Barton.

Logan sighed, his breath heavy with the weight of his memories. "I'll talk to her once she's back," he promised, his voice steady but filled with a resolve that hadn't been there before. "But it has to be her choice. She needs to understand what she's choosing."

Kara nodded, understanding the delicate balance Logan was trying to maintain. "Just don't wait too long. I can feel that the world is changing, and we need to be ready for what's coming."

Logan shifted the conversation, not wanting to dwell on the uncertainties of the future. "Do you think the Ancient One will come for the rebirth?" he asked, his tone curious.

Kara's expression softened, a small smile playing on her lips. "I'm not sure. She's always been unpredictable. My master didn't say much, just wished us luck."

Logan chuckled, the sound deep and resonant. "That sounds like her."

They continued walking, each lost in their own thoughts as they prepared for the monumental event that would take place the following night.

Logan's rebirth would mark a new chapter in their lives, one that would bring them closer to the power they needed to protect those they cared about.

As they parted ways to attend to their respective duties, the anticipation of what was to come lingered in the air.

The full moon would rise tomorrow night, and with it, the Wolverine would be reborn, more powerful than ever before. But until then, there were still things to prepare.
