Laura's story actually begins with Logan's story. Logan, also known as Wolverine, was the original Weapon X. Weapon X was a government project that took mutants and humans and attempted to create the perfect weapon. Weapon X would capture mutants and enhance their abilities, often using torturous and unethical procedures to do so, in order to create the perfect living weapon. The Weapon X program was also responsible for the creation of the adamantium bonding process, a process that bonded the nearly unbreakable metal known as adamantium to the skeleton of a human being. Wolverine was the most successful of these weapons, but the scientists involved with the Weapon X didn't realize that their experiments on Logan would cause him to go on a rampage. This rampage lead to his escape and the deaths of many of the scientists, including Dale Rice. The Weapon X program was shut down, but was eventually reinstated as a program referred to as the Facility.

The Facility planned to recreate the original Weapon X, unfortunately they couldn't find a subject that could survive the adamantium bonding process. The project was headed by Doctor Martin Sutter and his protege Doctor Zander Rice, the son of Doctor Dale Rice who was murdered by Weapon X during the first program. After realizing that they couldn't get a subject that would be able to survive the bonding process, Dr. Sutter decided to contacted the world renowned geneticist, Dr. Sarah Kinney. Kinney was asked to create a clone of Wolverine, unfortunately the only bit of genetic sample they had from Wolverine was damaged and Kinney couldn't salvage the Y chromosome. Both an X and a Y chromosome are required to create a male child, with only an X chromosome it was only possible to create a female child. Realizing this, Kinney suggested that they create a female clone, Sutter however, had no interest in creating anything but an exact match to the original, so he denied her request.
