Save The Tiger [part 7]:
Previously, Wolverine had arrived in Madripoor and fallen into the crimelord, Roche's hands. He managed to escape somehow, and was saved by a former friend, Jessan Hoan. After that they took a boat ride and came back to the harbour, only to find themselves in a ship booby trapped with explosives.
Now, Wolverine saves Jessan from drowing. He comes up with her a little beyond the burning ship. He knows that sense of air would excite Jessan and so clamps his hand over her mouth. Jessan wakes up and they both swim quietly to the harbour. They spot Roche's men looking for them, out in the sea.
Wolverine tells Jessan that its time she made her move. Jessan replies that it concerns him no longer. Wolverine warns her that she too will become a filthy
crimelord
if she does like Roche.
Later that evening, thugs appear at Madame Joy's. The women are terrified and a confusion ensues. The thugs plan to execute them. One girl runs out frightened. A thug follows her. She calls out to police, who are thugs themselves. They ignore her.
Suddenly, Wolverine leaps out and takes him down. As the others prepare to shoot, Jessan leaps out and shoots them point blank. Wolverine takes down the remaining ones. He makes the last one divulge Roche's location. Then he leaves him. But Jessan makes sure that he doesn't go anywhere and stabs him dead.
Back at Roche's villa, Roche is holding O'Donnel prisoner. He tortures him. O'Donnel threatens that the tiger will come for him. Razorfist slashes at him and the Inquisitor prepares his hardwares of torture...
