In 10 days Stryker will unleash a time bomb that could release enough of the cure in a gaseous form to fill all of New England. Victor Creed aka Sabretooth has been Stryker's prisoner and key to his experiments. Due to Sabretooth's healing factor, he can regenerate past the cure so once Sabretooth can't regenerate, Stryker will know which version of the cure to put in the bomb. Meanwhile Professor X has been watching and sends Logan, the Wolverine to work on a rescue mission, what they don't know is that none other than Captain America is on this mission as well as a part of S.H.I.E.L.D's mutant protection program started by Nick Fury as a way to honor his dad's old friend, Logan. Both Logan and Steve Rogers come in contact and have to work together.
