Synopsis: Wolverine awakes from the beating he just took from Lord Shingen in the strange woman’s apartment. He learns that her name is Yukio. Only problem is that there is no other time for pleasantries, as they are attacked by a horde of ninjas known as the Hand! Wolverine is able to take out the assassins. Once that is done, he grabs Yukio and they retreat back to Wolverine’s hotel room. Yukio informs Wolverine that a crime lord is after her and she fears for her safety. Wolverine offers his services to her and Yukio tries to repay his kindness with romance. Wolverine rebuffs her and retires to his slumber. That night, Yukio goes over to Shingen’s office. She is given two tasks to complete. One is to assassinate Katsuyori, the other to eliminate Wolverine. The next day, Yukio tells Wolverine about the crime lord who is bothering her – his name is Katsuyori. She knows where he will be, so Wolverine heads over there with her so he can persuade him to leave Yukio alone. After taking out Katsuyori’s guards, he makes it to the stage, where he sees the four people at this meeting. It is Katsuyori and his wife, and Mariko and her husband. The four in attendance watch the kabuki show that is being performed. When it reaches it’s climactic conclusion, the lead character goes to kill Mariko!!! Wolverine notices this and takes him out. He then lands on the stage so he can protect Mariko from her attackers. While that fight ensues, Katsuyori makes his way out of the theatre to find his guards all dead. As he loads his wife into their car, it explodes into a million pieces. The culprit - Yukio. Back in the theatre, Wolverine is continuing his assault on the assassins until one of them is able to connect with a killing blow. However, with Wolverine’s adamantium skeleton, it is not a killing blow, it is only a blow that drives him berserk. He proceeds to take out the rest of the assassins. Once done, he looks into Mariko’s face. She is disgusted and distraught over what she has just seen. Without saying a word, she turns and walks away. At that moment, Wolverine realizes whatever they had, whatever they might have had, is finished now. Wolverine is a broken man, dead inside. From behind the curtain, Yukio is pleased with the outcome!
