Nine years have passed since she embarked on her travels from home. Now, a full-grown woman in her late twenties with dark brown hair dyed black, and brown eyes, she sports a diamond-shaped face. Her attire includes a leather jacket over a grey sweater and black hiking boots.

Sasha Ross is not a fan of birthdays, except for her older sister's. She is known as Betty Ross, the girlfriend of the Hulk, and works as S.H.I.E.L.D's top scientist alongside the Avengers. Sasha rides her motorcycle to clear her mind from a previous love, but when she sees a man in need, stopping and parking her motorcycle across from him.

Wondered if he was alright, so she turned to walk over to his side to check on him. That's when she noticed he was sleeping, which gave her the opportunity to observe his features. She could see that he had a bit of a tan, and she guessed he might be tall based on his brown leather jacket, which hid his ripped, muscular, broad shoulders. His messy black hair made her feel concerned and stirred a familiar feeling about the man she had just met.

Noting that the man was asleep under a tree, not knowing that he was having a nightmare over an explosion that had happened a year ago; it didn't take long for him to wake up until he was startled when he was met by Sasha's brown eyes, who spoke: 

"Calm down, dude." She said calmly, "You look like you had a rough day." 

He eyed her suspiciously before he questioned her: "How long were you standing and watching over me?" 

"Long enough to park my bike across the road." Both Sasha and Logan stared at one another until it was interrupted when they saw several Recreational Vehicles drive by them, one of which had a little girl in it. They waved to the little girl as the RVs passed: 

"What?" 

"Oh, nothing, I just didn't expect a guy like you to have a soft spot for kids." 

"Har har." Logan sarcastically laughed before he rolled his eyes. Sasha paused and watched him get on his bike, but then she dared to take out her hand and say: "Sasha. Sasha Ross." She introduced herself.

"Logan. Logan Howlett." He returned the gesture with a smile.

"Pretty decent name, I bet." Logan chuckled at her compliment before they decided to ride their bikes together; Sasha, however, nodded and headed to hers as he got on his motorcycle: "Okay, whoever gets to the stop sign first gets to drink 70 beer bottles and send them to the victor." 

Both revved their engines and started riding, Sasha smirked and went in front, but Logan didn't care as he punched the gas to be the first to win. By driving past her: "Aish! Come on!" "I bested ya, sweetheart." 

"Whatever but if we meet again, I'll make sure you'll be sorry, old timer." All of a sudden, an explosion could be heard from the left, Logan and Sasha turned to see it, "Oh no...we gotta go help them! Nice knowing you!" But she drove off before he could respond and turned away to leave, only halfway away from the stop sign. 

The mutant glanced at the rearview mirror, as it showed Sasha driving her bike. Triggering Logan to turn around and follow.

-Sasha's Point of View-:

I had to help those people before anyone could die at the hands of death, I parked and run towards the family looking for their daughter: 

"Erica...?! Where's Erica?" 

"She's still inside!" the father gasped as he tried to enter the fire, but it exploded, pushing him away. The mother cried in tears when they realized that I was there. "Sasha! How did you get here?" 

"No time to explain, but right now, I'll get her back and pray that I can make it out." The comment made Sasha smile and heard:

"Sasha...you've always been a stubborn woman, please get her back." I nodded at her before going in, but I was pulled away by a worker: "Ma'am, it's too dangerous!"
