Once complete, X-23 was sold off as an assassin to one of the Facility's bidders. By age 11 the training was complete and she underwent the revived Weapon-X project giving her adamantium coating to her skeleton. X-23 was exposed to many different forms of abuse to condition her as an emotionless tool and prevent a repeat of Wolverine's rampage at the attempts be controlled.Īmidst the sink-or-swim training and psychological conditioning to view herself as just a weapon X-23 was secretly and subtly nurtured by Sarah Kinney, calling her by her name, reading her stories and attempting to help her work-through psychological scarring.

She was taught several different forms of hand to hand combat though-out her childhood and taught how to use Trigger Scent training which allowed her to smell targets more reliably than a blood-hound. X-23 was trained for years as the perfect killing machine. Kinney carried the X-23 to term and the X-23 clone was born, which Sarah decided to formally name Laura. Rice convincing Kinney that giving birth to the specimen herself would stabilize the project, though in truth this was just an act of resentment towards his project leader for forcing him on the project. Zander Rice, who had lost his father to Wolverine, persuaded Kinney to carry the clone to term herself.

After twenty-two failed attempts to stabilize a fetus the twenty-third trial proved successful. Though the members of hr research team were not happy about proceeding without the Facility sanction they were either paid or pressured to participate in the project anyway. Sarah Kinney did not take the news well and decided her project must move forward, moving ahead with the project anyway. The Facility turned down Kinney's request, not wishing to risk changing the sample on a genetic level, for fear of altering the clone's mutant properties. The genetic sample was a damaged however Kinney stated that if she were allowed to the remove X-chromosome she could circumvent the damage. Kinney was given funding and a sample from Wolverine during his captivity, then set about the project.
Finally The Facility classified Wolverine as not worth the time and resources it was taking to find and detain him and turned to a researcher called Sarah Kinney, who had proposed a replacement of Wolverine via cloning. Though Wolverine had escaped, The Facility attempted to track him down for years. With test-subjects ranging from dead to insane, the only thing close to a success was the mutant more commonly known as Wolverine. The Canadian genetic research and development organization known simply as "The Facility" attempted an endeavor it called the Weapon-X project, which involved grafting adamantium to a skeletal structure of a mutant to create an unbeatable living super-weapon.
