Colleen Wing

: "When you're raised in something like that... when they've formed the foundation for who you are, breaking away is like… I feel lost. I can't believe I'm admitting this, but all I want is something stable. Something I can hold on to."
: ―Colleen Wing[src]
Colleen Wing is a martial arts expert who had became a loyal soldier of the Hand having been recruited by Bakuto. While running her own dojo within New York City, she helped Danny Rand to adapt upon his return and gained his trust while he sought answers about his own company's role with the heroin trade within New York. After capturing Madame Gao, Wing's true allegiance to the Hand was then revealed, forcing her to choose between her loyalties to her fellow soldiers and Rand. Wing chose Rand and helped him to escape, later defeating Bakuto in combat and helping Rand to kill Harold Meachum. With their mission now complete, Rand invited Wing to return to K'un-Lun with him, only for them to discover it had been attacked and seemingly destroyed while Rand was away.
Wing assisted Rand with tracking down the Hand searching for answers, encountering Elektra and a mystery they could not understand. Having also encountered Stick, Wing then witnessed the formation of the Defenders who took on the Hand, with Wing also discovering that Bakuto had returned from the dead to help lead the Hand. Wing continued aiding the Defenders, destroying the Hand's own base of operations and killing Bakuto once and for all. Grateful to Detective Misty Knight for her sacrifice in saving her life, Wing helped her to get a new Prosthetic Arm to replace the one Bakuto had cut off during their fight and helped Knight to get used to it.
As Wing gave up her investment into helping others, she decided to help Rand let his vigilante life to take upon stopping the Triad War that is upon taking over New York. However, Wing had tried to get Rand back into recovery, she gathered the necessary tools to recreate the ritual in order to steal the Iron Fist back from Davos. As Rand had gone back on his feet, he proposed to Wing to take the power of the fist, but reluctantly refused. After Davos' henchmen killed BB, Wing decided to let Iron Fist transfer into her after Davos was incapacitated. Despite Davos' attempt to keep his new power, Wing eventually defeated him and took on the title of Iron Fist during Rand's temporary absence.

=== Early Life ===
: "My grandfather taught me. Before Bakuto. When my mother died and my father sent me to live with my grandparents.""How long did you stay with him? That's his katana, right?""Yeah. He was the one who taught me Bushido. He was always so serious about my training and I never understood why."
: ―Colleen Wing and Danny Rand[src]
Colleen Wing was born in Hokkaido where she lived with her mother Azumi Ozawa. Her mother would often comb her hair. However, her mother eventually walked out of her life. Wing's father, Lee Wing sent her to live with her grandfather, Kenji Ozawa. He trained Wing in martial arts and sword mastery before passing her his katana.
=== The Hand ===
==== Recruited ====
Years later, Wing was recruited into the Hand and trained by Bakuto. Introduced into the fellowship that the Hand provided, Wing came to regard them as family. She was eventually granted Chikara Dojo in New York City by Bakuto, so she could provide martial arts training, safety and a scholarship to youth who needed it.
==== Meeting Danny Rand ====
: "Speak English or Japanese, I haven't spoken Mandarin since I was a kid.""Oh, I'm sorry. I was just wondering if maybe I can get a job with you?""I've already got somebody who cleans up."
: ―Colleen Wing and Danny Rand[src]
One day in Central Park, Wing was putting up some ad flyers for her dojo. In the park, she encountered Danny Rand meditating. Believing him to be a homeless person begging for money, she placed a few dollars in his cup. As she put up the flyers, Rand approached her to give the money back. Slightly unnerved by his appearance, Wing tried to not pay attention to him. Rand noted that she was a martial arts trainer and he began speaking Mandarin to her. Impressed, they briefly spoke Mandarin, before she stopped him and told him that she hasn't spoken Mandarin since she was a child. Rand simply wanted to ask if she could give him a job. Wing apologized and told him that she'd already hired someone who cleans up, before heading off.
Later that day, after Wing had finished one of her usual classes at Chikara Dojo, Rand appeared by the entrance. Already tired of his presence, she asked him if he was there for a lesson. Since Rand couldn't afford a lesson, she suggested that he leave. Rand, however, wanted to challenge her master. Wing was confused, so he explained that it was protocol for the one visiting a dojo, to challenge the dojo's master. Wing explained that she was the master and rejected his challenge. Colleen told him she was closing up and that he should leave. Rand, however, proceeded to advise her to teach Kung-Fu. She said she didn't need the hassle. Rand even offered to teach a couple of the lessons, and that was what he meant when he asked her for a job earlier. She then asked where he had trained, to which he replied K'un Lun. Disbelieving what he was saying, she forced him to leave. Rand then apologized for any inconvenience and retreated towards the door. In sympathy, Wing gave him a pair of shoes for his bare feet.
==== Training Day ====
During a training session with her students, Wing traveled throughout Chinatown, being tailed by her class. At an underpass, her four students attempted to ambush her, but they were quickly defeated. Upon cooling down, she critiqued each student's performance: Darryl could easily be heard, Jenny was lacking in speed and agility, and another male student quickly detected through scent; and telling them they were in need of some improvement.
==== Visited by Ward Meachum ====
After Danny Rand was committed to Birch Psychiatric Hospital, he used the phone to give Wing a call, as she was the only friendly acquaintance that he had. He asked her to help secure his release from the hospital. Not knowing him well enough to assist, she ended the call.
While training at Chikara Dojo, Wing was visited by Ward Meachum who offered her a bribe, asking her to sign a legal document that stated Rand is dangerous and that she felt threatened by him. When she did not accept, he told her he would give her some time to think it over, reminding her of what money from him could do to help her dojo.
Not understanding why the Meachum's would go through so much to try and detain Rand, Wing visited him in the hospital to inform him of what had happened. When she asked him why the Meachum's cared so much about him, he revealed his identity as Danny Rand. She asked him if he was a threat to her; he assured her that he was not. Having received a package of M&M's and having removed all of the brown M&Ms, he asked Wing to deliver the package to Joy Meachum.
Entering the Rand Enterprises Building, Wing walked into Joy's Office to deliver the M&M's. While there, she witnessed as Joy gradually became tearfully elated at the lack of the brown candies. Before leaving, Wing returned the agreement that Ward had previously given her, letting the Meachum's know she was not signing the papers. As she walked into the elevators, she glared at Ward.
==== Protecting Danny Rand ====
The Chikara Dojo got broken into one night by Ward's men who were looking for Rand. Wing disabled the men and informed them that she was alone, and she could take care of herself. After they left, it was revealed that Rand had in fact taken refuge in her dojo. He promised to make it up to her and that he wouldn't be any more trouble. She made it clear that she was only helping him to honor her code, which meant that he needed to have left the dojo before the next morning.
The next morning, Wing awakened to find that Rand hadn't left and was, in fact, meditating in the middle of her dojo. Wing demanded to know why he was still there, and he stated he was worried about her safety. Colleen said that she could take care of herself and when he objected, they began to spar, with Darryl as their witness. Rand easily came out on top, but Wing remained adamant that he had to leave. He offered to pay her rent for 6 months to a year in exchange for a place to stay for the week. She responded by saying that he could remain there for the week but could not interfere with her practice.
When Rand returned to the dojo, he became upset with students who were joking around. When a student made fun of him, he used force to bring him to the ground. As her students were regularly bullied and beaten, an infuriated Wing kicked Rand out of her Dojo.
==== In the Ring ====
Desperate for money, Wing took a trip to the underground cage fights that Darryl mentioned partaking in. After witnessing a fight, the Ringmaster called out for a free-for-all, allowing anyone in the audience to leap into the cage. She leaped inside and was introduced under the fighting name Daughter of the Dragon. Soon, her opponent Rusty entered the cage as well. briefed about the rules, the two started fighting. Wing managed to stun him with a few strikes but was overpowered a few times. Eventually, she managed to knock him to the ground and progressively pounded in his face, bruising and bloodying him. Having won the fight, the Ringmaster awarded her the prize money and invited her to return any time she pleased.
Later the next day, she spoke with Darryl, who was showing a video of the fight to the other students and apologized for her hypocrisy. Though she was praised for fighting in the cage, she protested that she broke a code in fighting for money.
She later broke this code once more when she accidentally broke a piece of her equipment. To obtain the money to fix it, she re-entered the ring, fighting two opponents for double the cash. She came out victorious but not unharmed as she sustained a dislocated finger.
When Joy and Rand were attacked by the triads, he brought her to Wing's dojo for protection while he negotiated with the leader. During his absence, Wing taught Joy some basics of martial arts punches. Joy, in turn, shared some insight into Rands' character. Rand returned, having finished his negotiations, and popped Wing's finger back into place. He reminded her that he still owed 6 months of her dojo rent.
==== An Awkward Meeting ====
Training Claire Temple with a punching bag in the Chikara Dojo, Wing is visited by Danny Rand. Though he brought in food, a table, and chairs, she first rejected his offer for a date; Temple, on the other hand, willingly joined the two, expressing that she was hungry. The three ate together, Rand saying a prayer before digging in. While Wing spoke little, Temple and Rand conversed a bit--where Rand trained, his life in K'un-Lun, and the long gap between his stay and his return to New York.
Sometime after Temple left, with some food taken along with her, Rand spoke to Wing about his actual reason for visiting the dojo. He explained that there were criminals that were selling and distributing drugs through Rand Enterprises; when Wing questioned his inactivity with police, he stated that this would all fall on his business and they would have sought an alternate route. He went on to add that he wanted evidence for Ward Meachum to see so that an effort could be placed on having them removed from the building.
Wing was in disbelief that Rand needed her assistance; after Rand stated that the drugs could potentially do harm to her students and that he had purchased the building in which her dojo was built, she accepted to help him. She also mentioned a leak to one of her sinks.
==== Saving the Chemist ====
: "Doubt leads to death."
: ―Danny Rand[src]
Wing and Danny Rand trained together for a short while, showing off each other's skills with different weapons. Wing reminded Rand to bring his phone for pictures before they left. Wing and Iron Fist arrived at the Red Hook Pier. Wing talked about her cage fights and how she is worried about how much she liked it. Rand then told her to walk where he walks, being very egotistical about his skills. They ran to a crevasse in a storage container to evade the guard. They began to move closer to a storage unit. Rand helped Wing get on top so they could sneak around. They watched as they opened up a storage unit. Rand got his phone ready, but all they found was more equipment. Rand couldn't believe it because they wouldn't have guns if there were nothing to hide.
As they opened the last crate, Rand ran off to investigate further. She watched as Rand sneaked inside a trailer as they closed it and drove off. Wing trailed the truck and was able to incapacitate a guard and steal his car. As she was beind the truck, a bullet came through the trailer and pierced the glass of the car. Suddenly, the doors opened. Rand came out with Radovan Bernivig. They jumped on Wing's car and they stopped. She then brought Bernivig to Claire Temple.
She watched as Temple used a credit card to help Bernivig breathe. Bernivig wanted to return and explained the Hand have his daughter and they black mailed him into creating Steel Serpent heroin for them. Rand promised he would get his daughter back. Wing and Temple agreed to help.
They continued to tend to Bernivig when Rand returned saying that the Hand challenged him to a Da Jue Zhan. Temple argued that Rand can't just walk into a battle with them, but Rand said he had to. Later, Wing worried that Rand would get killed, but he assured her it won't happen.
==== Kidnapping of Radovan Bernivig ====
Later, Claire Temple and Wing brought Radovan Bernivig to a hospital. They discussed on whether it was the right thing to do. After waiting, Temple asked what OR he went to. The nurse looked it up and saw he never arrived. They ran off knowing he was kidnapped. They found out in the security room that he was taken to the basement. They encountered two members of the Hand. Temple let Wing take them down. They ran outside to find the ambulance that took Bernivig. However, Bernivig was gone. Afterwards, Wing stitched up Rand, who was able to get Sabina Bernivig from the Hand. The two drank together and eventually had sex.
==== Reuniting With Bakuto ====
Wing started warming up when Bakuto entered. She happily greeted him and assured him she was only warming up. They then talked about the Iron Fist. Bakuto told her to keep doing what she is doing, he will be in touch.
==== Attack on the Hand's Brooklyn Warehouse ====
During class at Chikara Dojo, Wing announced Darryl's graduation from her dojo and congratulated him, telling him that he would be servicing something bigger than himself. Afterwards, she spoke with Rand, who had informed her that the Hand knew about her and Claire Temple. Rand relayed a plan that could rescue Radovan Bernivig from Madame Gao; Wing willingly joined, regardless of its difficulty or danger.
They visited Golden Sands and informed Hai-Qing Yang that Gao had plans to eliminate his organization Yangsi Gonshi. Offering an alliance to help take her down, he had accepted and joined them, arming his men with firearms and entering the warehouse through a back elevator to the kitchen. Wing subdued a few henchmen and followed Rand to a backroom, where they found Bernivig bound to a chair and barely alive. Moving in and out of consciousness and hardly able to speak, he told them that he gave Gao the recipe for producing Steel Serpent heroin. Bernivig also disclosed that she was migrating to Anzhou, China before dying.
As Wing looked to Rand, she noticed that he appeared shocked. When asking what was wrong, he informed her that Anzhou was where his family's plane was headed before it had crashed.
==== Trip to China ====
Wing saved Claire Temple from intruders before regrouping with Danny Rand, as they explained their plan to head to Anzhou and confront Madame Gao. On the plane ride over, Temple asked Rand if he would kill Gao, she didn't want him to. Wing pointed out that she would have a different opinion if someone killed her family. Suddenly, there was turbulence, which gave Rand a panic attack due to his past. Temple talked him through it.
In China while staking out a warehouse, Wing offered to talk to him about his mother. Temple then sneaked up on them and they stopped the conversation. Wing was growing restless, so Wing decided to pay a Blind Beggar for information. He told her that Gao is keeping the people enslaved. She relayed this information to Rand and Temple. Wing got her katana out of the car, causing her phone to fall into the crevasse in between the seat. They infiltrated the warehouse. Suddenly, Temple started banging on the car horn. The two left before Gao arrived. As Wing split off, she encountered a Hand woman. The two engaged in a sword fight. Wing soon lost her sword, but Temple arrived and threw it back to her. Wing caught it and knocked the woman out with the handle.
They went to find Rand. They opened a warehouse to find him brutally beating up Zhou Cheng. They stopped him and he realized what he did. Rand started breaking down, but Gao arrived saying that anger is a tool. She offered Wing and Temple's safety if he were to submit himself to her. He refused, so Gao sent her men to them. They engaged in a battle, but one Hand member accidentally stabbed another. The man fell down, having been poisoned. Wing realized that the weapons were poisoned. Rand also realized that when he saw the dead pilots during his family's death, they had the poison markings. He angrily swung at Gao, knowing she was responsible, but held back, punching the wall instead. He then kidnapped her.
==== Interrogating Madame Gao ====
They brought Madame Gao to Chikara Dojo despite Wing's worries that they shouldn't. Her and Claire Temple talked to Danny Rand about if he is doing the right thing. Temple realized they could get sodium pentothal for truth serum. Wing said it was better than torture. She later found Temple talking with Gao and got her away. Gao simply told Wing she didn't look too good. Gao then teased her until Wing grew sick. She had to be helped away by Temple.
Wing was put in bed and helped by Temple. Wing assured everyone that she caught the flu. She got out of bed and walked to the others, realizing she was poisoned. Wing had Rand call Bakuto. Later, a camera poked through the door and Gao talked about her men coming. Wing smashed the camera, but smoke grenades came through the building. The three protected Gao as men came in. Wing only grew worse until Bakuto finally arrived. Bakuto told Iron Fist to heal her, but Rand was confused. Bakuto realized he was never taught how to heal with his Chi. Rand placed his hand over the poison and extracted it. However, Rand collapsed due to the strain. Wing and Bakuto then left with Rand to save him. They told Temple she couldn't come.
==== Returning to a Previous World ====
Wing and Danny Rand awoke at the Hand Compound and took a tour around the campus. They reached Wing's teacher Bakuto, who was training a small group of students. With Rand active, he taught him how to use meditation to recharge his chi.
Later, Wing met with Bakuto in his office and questioned when would be an appropriate moment to mention to him of their allegiance. He told her that now would not be the best time, as he wished to test him further. Wing insisted, saying that she wished not to lie to him anymore, to which her teacher replied that if he were to reject her after this, he was not right for her.
When Bakuto returned Rand to Wing after discovering Madame Gao off-campus in a prison-like building, Rand informed Wing that she had said that they were with the Hand. Though Wing tried to explain herself further, Rand hastily grew into a boiling rage, the two arguing over whether Bakuto's faction was any better than Gao's. Despite pushing effort into convincing him that this branch--her new family--was meant to do good in the world, Rand protested it, continuing to question whether her feelings towards him were staged as well before storming out of the room.
At night, she, alongside many of the students on campus, was awakened to the sound of the alarms, which led everyone hurrying downstairs and running out to the gates. While Darryl tried to persuade Rand to stay with them, Wing witnessed her teacher stab him from behind, choosing to fall back from the scene. With Davos and Rand stuck fighting the onslaughter of soldiers and guards, Wing approached Eric and knocked him unconscious, granting herself access to the gate controls. She managed to open the gate for Rand before bashing the controls with her katana. As he began to leave, the two made a glance at one another, Rand was eventually pulled away by his friend.
Wing soon left the compound as well, running off in the opposite direction as Rand.
=== Making Up For Her Past ===
==== Betraying the Hand ====
Heavily confused, Wing ventured back to Chikara Dojo in the hopes that Danny Rand was there. She was visited, however, by Bakuto, who expressed concern as to why she ran off. The two briefly argued over revealing that she was with the Hand to Rand and the further certainty that he would not join their cause. When Wing challenged him for what they did to him, she was met with the proclamation to show respect to her teacher. Wing continued to say that she could show Rand that there was good in their faction of the Hand. She was tasked to find Iron Fist and report back his location.
Wing arrived outside Temple's Apartment, paying a Joe's Pizza delivery guy for the pizza Claire Temple had ordered, to speak with Rand. When asked about her affiliation with the Hand, Wing is met with an upset Temple, who questioned her keeping it a secret during their fights. Wing gradually walked away before being called back, Temple apologizing for the feeling of hurt.
Wing was eventually allowed to see Rand on the rooftop. Though she tried to explain herself and her affiliation with the Hand, she was rebuffed repeatedly that she is supporting people doing far more harm than good. She eventually left the apartment and headed towards the hospital, where she found her former student Becca Yoo. Asking for antibiotics, she told her that they were for a friend, Yoo accepting to serve the Hand. Wing waited at the back of the hospital, soon met with the bag of antibiotics, only to be reminded that she should serve the Hand first before being left with Brian and Mary. She willingly followed them back to camp, where her two former students bound her to a chair and bring her back to Bakuto.
She was scolded for failing to inform him of Iron Fist's location; though Wing protested that she trusted the Hand, Bakuto questioned her alliance before walking away, leaving Brian and Mary to roll Wing behind curtains to drain her of blood. Taunted by Mary, Wing soon headbutted her former student, briefly distracting the two, while she managed to escape the chair. Quickly, Wing engaged in a duel between Brian and Mary; defeating Brian swiftly before taking on Mary one-on-one.
Hazy and paranoid, Wing walked outside Hand Compound and encountered Rand in the rain. She attempted to initiate a fight with him, proclaiming that she was the Hand and that he was tasked to destroy her. Instead, Rand subdued Wing, calming and comforting her.
==== Conflicting Allies ====
Having escaped the Hand Compound, Wing traveled the streets of New York. Danny Rand tried to comfort Wing, but Davos was quick to blame. Wing assured him she wasn't with the Hand. He asked if her students were the ones he hurt while escaping. Wing punched him in retaliation for his comments. Rand pulled Wing away. As Davos angrily walked in the opposite direction, Wing brushed herself off of Davos.
==== Duel at the Penthouse ====
Rand was tending to Wing's wounds when he was called by Bakuto. Bakuto told Rand to come in thirty minutes, or he will kill the Meachums. Rand ran out of there. Wing and Davos loosely followed Rand to Harold Meachum's Penthouse. They then attacked Bakuto's men as they were bringing their prisoner, Rand away. During the fight, Wing was slashed in her arm by a sword. She kicked the man and then got away from him. They proceeded to chase Bakuto down the hall into the streets. They arrived at Bethesda Terrace in the rainy night.
==== Duel at Bethesda Terrace ====
Chasing after her teacher in Bethesda Terrace, Wing was accompanied by Rand and Davos. Before the two fought, Bakuto taunted Wing's strength, citing that both Rand and Davos were trained warriors. Rand warned that he was baiting her, to which Wing acknowledged, asking as both men stand down while she readied herself. Stepping into the pouring rain, Wing and Bakuto clashed their swords and fought. During the swings, Wing was cut but pushed onward regardless. Eventually, her teacher chipped Wing's katana; though he continued to taunt her, she kicked the blade deep into Bakuto's leg. Wielding a stub, she continued to thrust her opponent until she was able to stab him in the abdomen and pin him to the ground. Despite given the opportunity to kill him, Wing chose not to, believing that it would make her no better than him or the Hand. Enraged by her decision, Davos pulled out a dagger and pierced Bakuto's heart before turning to Rand and proclaiming the Iron Fist's creed to destroy the Hand.
Wing watched as Rand and Davos quickly engage in a dispute over killing on Earth. When Davos stated that Chodak and Tashi should have left him to die, the two men initiated their own personal duel, Wing standing by as to let them vent their rage. When it appeared Rand was victorious, Davos left, vowing that his departure from the gate will have severe consequences. With her attention back on a dying Bakuto, she told Rand that his body was gone, believing that Hand soldiers must have taken his corpse.
==== Chase of Danny Rand ====
During a training session in Chikara Dojo with Danny Rand, Rand received a message from Ward Meachum, who warned him that Harold Meachum had betrayed Danny. A few moments later, he spotted armed men entering the dojo. Believing them to be part of the Hand, Wing and Rand defeated them but the duo realized that they were from the DEA. Knowing that they were now hunted, Wing and Rand fled from the dojo.
With Claire Temple's help, Wing and Rand met with Jeri Hogarth. She told Rand about the prosecution against him and Wing and showed them the documents the DEA had as evidence. Rand realized that these were files from the tablet that had been changed to make him look guilty. After a failed attempt to take the original documents from Madame Gao, they decided to pick up the tablet from Harold himself in the Rand Enterprises Building.
==== Battle at the Rand Enterprises Building ====
Entering the Rand Enterprises Building, Ward Meachum surveyed the area, walking through the lobby, taking the elevator to the top floor, and to his office. He phoned Danny Rand and Wing to inform that the building was heavily guarded by henchmen wielding guns before he is attacked by Harold Meachum with a golf club. Though alarmed, Claire Temple wanted to back out of their plan as instructed; Rand, however, chose to follow through despite the incident, storming out of the car. Wing joined, stating she was not going to leave him behind. Feeling forced to do the same, Temple grabbed the bag of cash and walked to a peanut stand. Hastily, she bought the stand and requested that the previous owner walk away. She pulled the gas line apart, lit a match, and set the fumes ablaze, sparking a towering fire that distracted a couple of guards from the building. Rand stepped inside and quickly took down the guards. As a distraction, he called the elevator down and chose to make an alternate route to the top floor. Wing snuck in through a back entrance, awaiting her partner's arrival.
=== Chasing the Hand ===
==== Attacked by the Black Sky ====
Wing traveled around the world alongside Danny Rand in search for answers on what the Hand was planning prior to learning that they had attacked outside the gate to K'un-Lun. They managed to follow a lead in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. In the sewers, they caught sight of an assassin fighting Shaft. Though Rand was unsuccessful in preventing the mortal wounding, Wing told him to pursue the attacker while she stood by Shaft.
Rand eventually returned to them to speak with Shaft. Before he died, Shaft referred to Rand as his title Iron Fist and informed him that he should return to New York City, as his fight with the Hand was there.
==== Returning Home ====
: "Greatest city in the world.""Yeah. New Yorkers like saying that. Still, after all this time, I... I don't know how I feel about it.""That's the beauty of it. It can be whatever you need it to be.""What do you need it to be?""Home."
: ―Colleen Wing and Danny Rand[src]
Riding a helicopter back to New York City, Wing and Danny Rand arrived atop a building, in time to feel and witness the quake. The pair eventually returned to Chikara Dojo, where Wing is pleased that there was no structural damage to the building or its interior. Later, she conversed with Rand about what Shaft had said and mentioned that he called him Iron Fist. She convinced him that they needed allies in their fight against the Hand; Wing also made note of the sword that his killer had used in the fight, believing it to be a possible lead on where to start their search.
==== Encountering the Hand ====
Danny Rand and Colleen Wing arrived at a Chaste warehouse. After seeing the nice living equipment, Wing asked if it was weird that she wanted to live there. They walked into another room to see many dead Chaste members. They looked around in sadness until Rand found a painting of K'un-Lun on the wall. Suddenly, what they thought were members of the Hand came in and started spraying chemicals onto the dead bodies. The two hid until there was a right time to attack. They soon found out that it wasn't members of the Hand, but people hired by the Hand. One of them being Cole Miller. As the police arrived, Wing and Rand ran away.
==== Meeting Luke Cage ====
Wing received a call from Claire Temple and agreed to have Luke Cage and Danny Rand meet one another after the incident at Chikara Dojo. At first, the two were still debating their intentions that led to the altercation. However, Temple and Wing left the two to speak with each other and align on a mutual ground. Soon, however, Cage and Rand were caught into a dispute that led to Cage leaving the dojo.
Once Temple left, Wing and Rand conversed over what Cage had said about their methods of taking down Hand. The two agreed that they would try to figure out the organization's plot from a higher perspective, seeking Rand Enterprises. While there, they requested the help of an accountant to look at the transactions recently made and learned that accounts have been closed and that the business Midland Circle Financial had made these transactions. Rand sought for Midland Circle, while Wing waited for more information at the dojo.
==== After Midland Circle ====
Wing was eventually informed by Danny Rand that he had escaped Midland Circle via call. After his fight at Royal Dragon, Rand brought along Jessica Jones, Matt Murdock, and Stick to hide at Chikara Dojo; soon, Luke Cage emerged from his fight with Sowande, having defeated and captured him. Though they tried to get him to talk, Sowande taunted them, telling them that the Hand was going to attack those closest to Defenders, mentioning the night nurse, the news reporter, and the radio show host. Quick to protect everyone, Wing followed Rand and Cage, providing support outside Soledad Temple's Apartment.
==== Discovered by Bakuto ====
Wing separated from Danny Rand in case the Hand managed to track them. In an alleyway, she heard the voice of a familiar figure, to which she found herself staring at a living Bakuto. Though he tried to persuade her to return to the Hand, Wing continued to push him away. Resulting in the two clashing in a sword fight until Wing was slashed through her abdomen by a knife. She was then aided by Claire Temple, Luke Cage, and Rand, who managed to force Bakuto to retreat.
==== Under Police Protection ====
: "Maybe this is exactly where I'm supposed to be.""What do you mean?""Hidden here. Away from the action. Left behind."
: ―Colleen Wing and Claire Temple[src]
Brought into the 29th Precinct Police Station to be sheltered, Wing was examined and patched up by Claire Temple and watched over by Misty Knight. During treatment, she spoke with Temple about the brief conversation she had with Bakuto, feeling scrambled by his words. She told Temple that all she desired now was something stable - more specifically a relationship with Danny Rand. She was comforted by Temple, who thought of her as an essential ally to their friends and that she was their foundation.
Assembled with other allies to their friends, she listened to an announcement from Detective Knight about supervising over them under the request of a mutual friend. Wing was, then, spoken to about her katana that her co-workers had in their possession. Despite Knight informing her that she was under their custody, Wing persuaded her that the Hand could do harm regardless. She was given back her katana.
==== Destruction of Midland Circle ====
: "Colleen. We meet again. I told you our fates are aligned.""Except it's not fate. I came here to end this."
: ―Bakuto and Colleen Wing[src]
Before long, Wing witnessed Matt Murdock, Jessica Jones, and Luke Cage were unconsciously brought back from the abandoned theater after their failed attempt at preventing the Hand from capturing the Iron Fist. Upon hearing the news from Cage, Wing became more desperate than ever to find and rescue Rand by any means necessary. After the other three Defenders depart for Midland Circle and with the New York City Police Department heavily occupied with finding them, Wing heads to the evidence room, stealing John Raymond's confiscated explosives and the blueprints for Midland Circle, and runs off.
Wing found Daredevil, Jones, and Cage and helped them fight off Madame Gao, Bakuto, and Murakami. Cage scolded her for leaving the precinct, but she contradicted saying they ought to be grateful she arrived. Misty Knight and Claire Temple arrive shortly after. The detective offered to buy Wing, Temple, and the Defenders some time to save New York.
In the lobby of Midland Circle, Wing revealed to Temple and the Defenders the explosives she brought to blow up the building and crush the malevolent organization. One by one, her allies reluctantly approved her idea. Luke Cage was the last one to agree, but only if no innocent bystander winds up murdered let alone injured. After carefully reviewing the building's blueprints, the team surmises that Raymond's targets were the support beams which act as the structural center. Daredevil orders Wing and Temple to set the detonators while he, Jones, and Cage find and help the Iron Fist. Wing was reluctant at first as she didn't want to take chances of losing Rand again, but Temple convinced her that she requires her assistance more while the others can look after one another. Wing held the Defenders to not making the same mistake twice before heading off with Temple.
==== Last Duel with Bakuto ====
En route to the engine room, Wing told Claire Temple that she has abilities of her own and all she needed was some public attention that the Defenders have. The nurse expresses her gratitude, and the two friends enter the engine room to find the support beams. As they prepare the bombs, Bakuto entered the room in an attempt to convince her former prodigy to switch sides one last time. Wing continues to refuse, drawing her Katana and engages in sword-to-sword combat against her former master while Temple fights off two henchmen.
Temple defeats one of her opponents and Wing stabbed the other, but Bakuto subdues her. The stabbed henchman was still standing and about to strike down Temple until Misty Knight shows up and shoots him dead. She shot Bakuto as well, but he would not go down. He temporarily knocked out the detective, but Wing recovered plenty to fight again. He stole her sword and knocked her aside. Temple attempted to fight him as well but Bakuto stops her and was about to kill her by cutting off her head.
Detective Knight regained consciousness in time to save Temple, but Bakuto cut off the detective's right forearm instead. Wing takes back her sword and killed Bakuto once and for all by slicing off his head. Unfortunately, the villain's body plummeted on the bomb which began to count down. Wing and Temple carried Knight back upstairs to the lobby. They found the Defenders, except for Daredevil, who stayed behind to fight and rescue Elektra, and the six of them escaped the building along with a SWAT team just before the building exploded and collapses. Wing watched the explosion in horror, and Danny Rand comforted her. They head back to the Harlem precinct together to break the news over the fall of Daredevil.
==== The Hand's Demise ====
: "I'm so sorry.""It is not your fault. It's not. It's the job."
: ―Colleen Wing and Misty Knight[src]
Several days after the Hand's demise, Wing visited Knight in a hospital owned by Rand Enterprises. She apologized for the illegal trouble she caused, but Knight said it came with being a detective. Wing passed along a message from her boyfriend, stating that the hospital could do something about Knight's arm so she can get back to work.
Later that day, she returned to her dojo to find Rand meditating alone. They spoke about Matthew Murdock's passing, and she presumed Rand was blaming himself again. Rand explained that his mentors taught him that every tragedy carried a lesson. After the recent tragedy of losing Murdock, he set his home grounds on New York City, and the two shared a kiss.
=== Helping in Other Ways ===
==== Helping Misty Knight ====
: "Do you feel good, huh? Taking down a cripple?""Yeah. If that's how you see yourself.""You don't know what it's like to feel powerless. To have somebody take your identity from you, your soul.""I do, actually. More than you know. Misty, you are the reason I still have an arm. When Bakuto attacked me, what did you do? You jumped in. You're selfless. I admire that. So never pity. Ever."
: ―Misty Knight and Colleen Wing[src]
In 2017, Wing helped a one-armed, downtrodden Misty Knight regain her confidence and strength over a combination of combat training runs and pep talks. Wing gave Knight some tough love, in an attempt to get her out of her funk. The two went for drinks at a nearby bar, when an altercation erupted when a local thug Mortimer Norris threatened Misty. Misty regained her confidence and retaliated against Norris and his entourage of crooks. Colleen assisted her, disarming and fighting back against the gang.
Later, Knight received an official envelope decorated with the Rand Enterprises insignia. Inside is a personal message from Wing and Danny Rand, and a prototype blueprint for a robotic prosthetic arm, which Misty ultimately accepted.
==== Volunteering at Bayard ====
: "I'm just trying to keep the peace. Situations they happen. Maybe if you started coming out with me...""Mmm-mmm. Let's not have this discussion again, okay?""Oh, come on, let me.""I like what I do at the center. You know, I... I help people. I'm a part of the community. Besides, last time I got involved things went sideways."
: ―Danny Rand and Colleen Wing[src]
Wing wanted to stop her fighting, so she helped another way by volunteering at the Bayard Community Center. She provided aid to Diana Tsai on studying for the permanent residency test. Though Tsai expressed concerns and doubt on becoming a citizen and caring for her daughter Lana, Wing assured her that there were some children's clothing in the center, pulling Lana aside to find a coat in her size. Momentarily, her eyes were drawn to a black box that held a silver medallion on its cover. Realizing it was her family crest, she asked who donated it and got the name of Frank Choi.
Wing went to find Choi's cousin, Henry Yip. Upon arriving, Yip was being attacked by Ryhno's Gang. Wing stopped them and asked Yip about his cousin. Yip said he did not have one and thanked her before leaving. She returned to the dojo, which was now her and Danny Rand's apartment. She called someone to find more information until Rand arrived. She explained what happened and even shard a story of her past. The two then when out to eat.
At Yip's restaurant, the two of them fought over who got to eat the last crab. Wing called dibs, then Rand told a story of eating insects to gross out Wing. However, Wing told a story about how Bakuto made her eat tarantulas. Rand knew she was lying, but gave her the crab leg for creativity. They then talked about the Triad War which came as a result of the Hand's demise. Suddenly, Ryhno's Gang arrived to get money from Yip once again. Wing tried to stop them by talking it out, but eventually got into a fight. She took care of them while Rand took care of the Golden Tigers who arrived as well. Wing defeated Ryhno's gang and Yip thanked them. She asked about Choi and Yip told her his cousin was hiding from the Tigers.
Outside, Wing talked to Rand about her annoyance in fighting again, as she said she would not. Rand told her that the fight found her, she was not searching for it. Later that night, Wing was trying to sleep when she heard Rand get up and leave.
==== Talking to Ryhno ====
Wing was continuing her research into her past when Danny Rand came home with a woman, Mary. Rand explained that she was dehydrated and he did not want to leave her in the street during the war. Wing introduced herself as Rand got her water. She then asked to use the bathroom and Wing whispered to Rand that she was crushing on him. Rand jokingly said that she was only human. Later, Wing went to Bayard and set up with Sam Chung. The two talked about Frank Choi and his disappearance. Chung was worried because Sherry Yang was running the casino night and her husband was a gang leader, Hai-Qing Yang. Wing briefly made a Chinatown reference before leaving.
Wing was walking when she found someone being beat up in the alley. She charged towards them only to find BB a kid from the night before that she fought in the restaurant. He pulled a gun on her, but she quickly disarmed him before they ran. She disassembled the gun and threw it away before the police arrived as she yelled in frustration. She followed BB to his hideout and tried to talk to Ryhno, the leader. Ryhno pulled a gun on her and she tried to talk it out. He explained their problems as gangs are taking over territories, making them vulnerable. He then told Wing to leave before he kills her. Wing complied and BB caught up to her, apologizing.
She asked Rand if he could talk to Hai-Qing Yang to stop the war. He did so, but Yang did not budge, so Wing decided to go a different route. She met with Sherry Yang at the casino night and convinced her to call Hai-Qing. Rand complimented her before they went home. She showered then went to sleep.
==== Dinner Argument ====
: "What the hell is going on? Come on. This game we're all playing, hiding our real intentions?""I mean, I don't... I don't 100% know what you mean.""We invited you two over tonight to get stuff off our collective chests. So you know what? Davos has it right. Let's stop being so damn polite. Is the truth really that hard? Or am I the only one with the balls enough to call it like it is?"
: ―Colleen Wing and Joy Meachum[src]
Wing woke up to find Danny Rand in the bathroom. She remarked at how she did not see him come in. She then told Rand that Mary called, but then hung up immediately after. Later, Wing went to Frank Choi's home and was trailed by BB, who was friendly. BB and her talked while she looked for clues. She used a stool to find a box and BB called dibs on half of the items. Outside, they walked in the streets while BB revealed that the Golden Tigers had no quarrel with Choi. He then asked for his money before leaving. Wing told him that if he trails her, then trail her to Bayard Community Center. She was then called by Rand, who asked if he could invite Ward and Joy Meachum as well as Davos for dinner. Wing was worried about Davos, but said yes.
Joy and Davos arrived as a couple at dinner time. Wing prepped for dinner as she talked to Joy, who was snobby. Wing threw a piece of spaghetti at the wall explaining that if it sticks, it is ready. Rand talked to Wing, who said that she could not stand Joy anymore. Rand wondered if they should wait for Ward, but they decided to just start eating. Joy obnoxiously complimented the food and Wing mocked her before breaking up the quiet and talking about their feelings for one another and that something was wrong. Davos eventually stepped away and Joy talked about her feelings towards Rand. Rand let it slip that Ward was supposed to come, making Joy upset that he lied once again.
=== Taking Part in the Triad War ===
==== The Hatchets-Golden Tigers Negotiation ====
: "Is your husband meeting the Tigers tonight?""The meeting is to begin in a few moments. I'm taking his place at the table, and I'd like you two to accompany me."
: ―Danny Rand and Sherry Yang[src]
After Joy Meachum and Davos left angry, Wing and Rand were approached by Sherry Yang who needed protection as she met with the Tigers. Wing and Rand went with her. During the meeting, Rand saw something suspicious, so Wing tried to get Yang to safety. However, she was knocked back by Chen Wu. Yang saved Wing by stabbing him in the eye.
==== Negotiations with Yangsi Gonshi ====
: "I don't have to tell you the cost of war, okay? You know it. This town has been through this cycle way too many times already. Lost face leads to violence, violence leads to more violence. But the way I see it, we have two possible futures right now. And one ends in a funeral procession all the way down Mott Street. You say that war is all this gang has known for centuries, but history doesn't decide what happens next. You do. Your men will die for you, Mrs. Yang, or you can let 'em live."
: ―Colleen Wing to Sherry Yang[src]
At the dojo, Wing and Danny Rand talked about possible threats that could loom from Rand's interruption the night before. Wing said it could be something with Mary as she was watching them. Rand sat down and reminisced about a time where they could just be regular people.
They went to Sherry Yang's home to apologize but were met with hostility. Yang told her guards to let him in. They talked and Yang was upset, claiming that negotiations will not work anymore after Rand mistakenly saw an enemy. Yang then told them that Hai-Qing Yang suffered a stroke. Rand thought it was a purposeful stroke set up by the Golden Tigers. He then left while Wing stayed behind and talked to Yang about not wanting any wars. Suddenly there was beeping, and Yang rushed to her husband. She found Rand trying to communicate with him and kicked them out.
On the street, Rand explained that there were bruises on Hai-Qing's neck, which means someone used an ancient method from K'un-Lun to give someone a stroke. The only people who would know it were him and Davos, meaning Davos gave him the stroke. Hai-Qing also weakly told Rand, "Hancock 212." Suddenly, Misty Knight arrived and told them to get in the car.
They went back to the dojo and Knight explained that her cop friend was undercover in the Golden Tigers and was now in the hospital after according to him a man with a "glowing hand" attacked him. Knight explained that the people outside that Rand saw were the police trailing Chang. Knight knew they had the best intentions but screwed it up. She told Wing and Rand that they could not intervene anymore. She talked to Knight about stopping her vigilantism because of the Destruction of Midland Circle. Knight saw the pictures on the table and Wing told her they were being followed.
Suddenly, they realized Rand was gone and found him at the pier next to the unit Hancock 212. Knight got mad, but Wing talked her down. Rand said she did not understand, but Wing said that she herself does not understand. Last night he even put an officer in the hospital. Rand said that she should understand, to have someone she cared for turn out to be capable of something like this. Wing told him to go before Knight returns. Later, Wing got a call from Rand saying that Mary was attacking him, but he was pushed away from his phone, leaving Wing to worry.
==== Searching for Danny Rand ====
: "I was done with this life, you know? I hung up my katana for a reason. And I... I knew this was gonna happen. I saw that he was getting reckless with the fist, but I just didn't want to deal with it. And now...""He is an adult, Colleen. Look, I get it. I saw your place. You two are building a life together. But being in a relationship with someone is not the same as taking responsibility for them."
: ―Colleen Wing and Misty Knight[src]
Wing called Misty Knight, worried about Danny Rand's safety. She gave Knight the information on Mary. Knight asked for something that only Wing and Rand touched so that she can get their prints. Wing gave her a pamphlet on the refrigerator.
They approached Ward Meachum in the street and told him the news. He assured her he will help. When he left, Knight concluded that Wing did not like him. Wing said that she was trying. They kept walking and Wing grew more worried. She ranted to Knight about being done with vigilantism, but it just came back. She knew he was reckless with the fist, but did not want to help. Knight assured him he made his own choices.
They got a call of a murder at a club. The two of them arrived, seeing a corpse with his head caved in. The purp had a glowing red hand. Since it was red, it was not Rand, but that made it worse as there was a new Iron Fist. Wing then got a call from Joy Meachum, who told her where Rand was. They arrived at the location to find Ryhno's Gang beating up Rand. BB got worried, but Ryhno pushed on until Knight shot a warning shot. Wing rushed to the injured Rand while Knight dealt with them.
Wing tended to Rand outside, who wanted them to call Ward so he could get a doctor. Ward brought Bethany, who said Rand needed a hospital, but Ward told her that they cannot. Bethany told Wing to stand back. Bethany then stabilized Rand before leaving. Wing told Ward about Davos. Ward got very worried and wanted to check on Joy. Wing and Knight assured him they will get Joy if Ward stayed with Rand.
==== Fighting Walker ====
: "Mary?""No, baby."
: ―Colleen Wing and Walker[src]
They arrived at Joy Meachum's apartment. Meachum did not want to open the door, but when Misty Knight ordered her to, she complied. They explained the situation, but Knight was suspicious. She looked around and was attacked by Mary. Wing went to help and found her to be a formidable foe. Mary told her she was not who she thought she was. Wing fought longer and caught a sword coming at her. Knight then forced "Mary" to comply as she warned her that she will shoot. "Mary" was then arrested. As they arrived back to her home, she found that Mary goes by Walker and that Joy was behind it all with Davos. Joy confessed and said that Davos was not done.
==== Encounter with the Crane Sisters ====
: "Okay, if we can get everything back together the skin, the needles, the blood, you think you can do this ritual thing in reverse?""Keep in mind that the alternative is a long stay in a small cell.""Oh, and that's after I'm done with you."
: ―Colleen Wing and Misty Knight to the Crane Sisters[src]
Knight soon decided not to arrest Walker or Meachum because Walker could play ball and Joy was legitimately scared of Davos. Wing disagreed, but complied. Knight and Wing then went to find the Crane Sisters as Joy revealed they transferred the Iron Fist from Danny Rand to Davos.
On the way, Knight asked Wing to get a habanero burrito from the gas station. Wing could not find it so she got a different sauce. Knight noticed right away and complained. They then talked about the troubles that Wing faced with hanging up the katana only to return. Wing talked about Bakuto and Knight said she had men who turned bad and men who turned good, but it was the ones who think they are right that scare her.
They arrived at the Crane Sisters' Tattoo Shop and claimed to want tattoos. However, one of the sisters figured they were lying and told them off. Knight brought out her badge, but a sister said they did not need to talk. Knight said that was true, but she could also arrest them as accessories to kidnapping. Wing then noticed Aiko charging with a knife. She pushed Knight out of the way and attacked. She took on two the the sisters and enjoyed herself. She flipped and rolled around the two acrobats before pushing Avalon to take care of the other sister. She finished them both off with a metal pole. They were arrested and eventually told Wing and Knight how they transferred the power. Wing asked if they could do it in reverse. They reluctantly agreed after being threatened by Knight.
They returned back to the dojo to find it empty. Wing peered around the corner and found both Walker and Joy Meachum gone.
==== Worrying for Rand ====
Wing and Misty Knight soon got word that Danny Rand was on his way to the hospital after shattering his leg in a fight with Davos. Wing rushed to the hospital only to find Rand in surgery. She paced around the room and held her head in worry. After the surgery, she got to see the unconscious Rand and held his hand.
She later talked with Knight, who met with Chinatown police captain, William Pike, who did not want to help them with Davos because he was killing Triads, which is good. Knight changed the subject to Wing, who brought out her research on Frank Choi. She found a ledger that has people paying in really weird increments, possibly life debt. They then forged papers when they got to America. Wing explained that some people paid with money and others paid with possessions. Wing believed that the box with her heirloom was paid to get out of debt.
Suddenly, Rand limped through the door wanting to get out of the hospital. He asked about Davos, who had killed more people. Knight explained that they will capture Davos and use the Crane Sisters to reverse the ritual. Rand talked about Ward Meachum mentioning he saw Joy Meachum and Davos at an art auction. Knight said she will take a look. When Knight left, Wing tried to help Rand up, but he wanted to do it himself. Rand blamed himself for thinking he could reason with Davos. Wing proposed going to Bayard Community Center to spread the word of Davos.
Wing hung up flyers at Bayard before suggesting they leave. Rand wanted to help her and limped over. Wing stopped him saying that she had been with him everyday in physical therapy so she knew how much he was pushing himself. He does need to blame himself for Davos. Rand said it was his fault as he was brothers with Davos for years. Wing hugged him and Rand apologized for challenging their relationship. Rand talked about how Davos kept saving him in K'un-Lun and because of that, he wants to save Davos. Wing told him he might be beyond that. Wing admitted how she still cared about Bakuto, but he was still a bad man. Rand leaned over and hugged her.
==== Ending the Relationship ====
: "You and Davos trained together, but you never taught anyone. You don't know what that means. When I teach someone, what they do what comes from that, is on me. If I do this, everything changes between us. I'll have to separate myself, emotionally, from this. From you. I have no other choice.""Yes, you do. You've made yours. I've made mine."
: ―Colleen Wing and Danny Rand[src]
Knight returned from her research saying that the bowl was one of a kind and needed for the procedure. She then showed Rand a picture of ancient art work. Rand translated the foreign language and found out it was instructions to the ritual; however, if it goes wrong, both parties could die. When Knight left, Rand asked Wing if she could train him. She told him that she closed down the dojo and cannot just go back. Rand proceeded to get up and make room to train himself, telling Wing that if she was too scared to train, he will do it himself. She got mad saying that she was not scared and she should have a say whether he makes it back into a dojo. She told him to screw himself before closing the door on him.
She soon heard the sound of punching outside her room. She walked out to find Rand punching a pillow until his hands bled. He then tried to kick, but only felt pain from his injury. She helped him up and admitted that she did not close the dojo out of fear, she could not live with sending anyone else to their grave. She explained that her students would have to be emotionally separated from her in order for it to work. Rand understood saying he had no choice. They effectively ended their relationship and started training. She ruthlessly slashed the legs from under Rand, making him call her sensei. She urged him on as he trained.
==== Training Rand ====
Wing guided Danny Rand through practice and talked about how Davos knew he was coming and will be ready. After Wing struck Rand in the face with her stick, she said that was enough, but Rand wanted to continue. Afterwards, Rand called her sensei and she told him he did not have to do that after training. She told Rand about how she learned her baton skills from her grandfather. Wing reminded him that facing Davos is hard both mentally and physically. Suddenly, the police tip line went off and they went to go stop Davos after hearing that Chen Wu's car was found.
They went to Sherry Yang's place where Wu was and went to protect her. As they took everyone out of the building, they heard Davos break in above. Wing reminded Rand to think before going after Davos. On the way out, Wing ran into Wu and told everyone to go while she handled him. She was able to get the upper hand by toppling him over and then knocking him out. As Davos arrived, she hopped into the car and drive off.
They walked in on Yang's meeting later, after talking to Sam Chung, and warned her not to mess with Davos because it will only lead to more deaths. However, she ushered them out. At the dojo, Wing talked about the never ending war that they were in. Rand then brought up how ending Davos should not mean the end of them. Wing said she will fight for what she believed in no matter the cost. She then decided to bring him to the cage fights to let out his anger.
They arrived at the cage to fight each other, despite Rand not wanting to fight her. This was to help Rand control his emotions. Wing spray painted a circle and if they stepped out they lost, first to 3 points. They continued to fight and Rand stepped out: one point to Wing. She then grabbed the tag on his shoulder, making it two-zero. Rand tried to calm himself down while Wing teased him to try to get him to lose his anger. Wing claimed the fist almost consumed Rand. He then grabbed the tag, making it two-one. However, he got the tag by using his anger. Wing warned him not to do that. She told him to separate himself from his love.
They fought even longer and Rand got the tag, but was still angry, Wing understood why, but he could not do that and get away with it. What stopped her anger problems was that she remembered what she was fighting for. Rand then slashed her legs and grabbed the tag, but before pulling it, he calmed down and finally realized what his anger had done. He left her alone and walked away.
=== Becoming the Iron Fist ===
==== A Proposition ====
: "I'm ready to face Davos. We can stop him. But when he's subdued and we perform the ceremony I can't take the power back.""If we take the power out of Davos it has to go somewhere. Someone has to hold the Fist.""I know. I think it should be you."
: ―Danny Rand and Colleen Wing[src]
Wing found Danny Rand looking out onto the city. She admitted to pushing too hard too fast. Rand told her that was not why he was upset, he explained how he came from wealth, then lost it and earned the Iron Fist. However, when he got back, he repeated the cycles from K'un-Lun. He thought about what he was fighting for, it was not Matt Murdock's words, not Davos, and not Wing. He was fighting for the power of the Iron Fist and that makes him dangerous. He believes they could beat Davos, but he could not take the fist back. Wing argued that someone needed to take the fist. Rand agreed, saying it should be Wing.
Rand brought her under the subway and showed her where he would practice every single night. He admitted that he truly used it as a release, to use the fist. She placed her fist in a dent in the wall, and refused to take the fist. Rand admitted to wanting the fist back more than anything, but he knew who he became with the fist. Wing still did not change her mind.
==== Talking to Frank Choi ====
Misty Knight arrived with a task force as well as Frank Choi so that Wing could ask questions. She started with the box and Choi talked about a woman approaching him saying that the box was worth a fortune. The comb and brush were supposed to be made from the ship of an old pirate king. Wing immediately recognized it as an old story she heard as a kid that he mother told her. She realized that no one else could tell Choi that story except her mother. She then told everyone but Rand to leave. She realized she could maybe find her mother in New York.
She was approached by Knight outside and said that her whole life was a lie, but now her mother was as well. She claimed that Knight was her healthiest relationship despite them not knowing each other well. Knight gave her a talk about taking the fist before leaving.
==== Attack on Bayard Community Center ====
: "Working here isn't enough. There are people, and they need help, and they're out there.""Are you sure about this?""Sure as I'm gonna be. I was so afraid of what I'd do with a weapon in my hand. I'm not afraid anymore."
: ―Colleen Wing and Danny Rand[src]
Wing was called by Sam Chung who heard that Sherry Yang was preparing an attack. Wing and Danny Rand arrived to stop her, but Yang wanted vengeance. Yang told her that Henry Yip was killed by Davos. Wing was saddened, but still tried to talk Yang down, especially since they have now found peace with the Triads. BB then arrived with the bowl they needed for the ritual. Wing asked what BB was doing with Davos, who explained they were learning to fight. BB said that he got help from Joy Meachum, who was probably in danger. Wing had Misty Knight go get her. They then saw Ryhno's Gang outside and had everyone evacuate.
Wing realized that they needed a sedative to knock Davos out and Chung helped them get some from the back. Wing then tried to find BB who was missing. Wing finally found him outside, being stabbed by his former gang. She yelled out for him, but it was too late. She charged at the gang and took on all of then. She was soon circled, but did not back down. She defeated all of them before reaching BB, who was dead. Crank charged at her, but she easily defeated him once again, saying that she knew what it was like to be lost and angry. The police soon arrived and arrested all of them. Meanwhile, Rand was able to sedate Davos. She finally realized that she needed to be the Iron Fist to help the community.
==== Gaining the Iron Fist ====
: "You draw the heart of the dragon into you.""Will it hurt?""Yes. But then it will be a part of you."
: ―Danny Rand and Colleen Wing[src]
They brought the Crane Sisters to the dojo where they started the ritual. Wing drank a liquid and passed out. Danny Rand then took the dragon's energy from his chest as well as blood from the sedated Davos. They burned it in the bowl and used it as ink for Wing's tattoo.
Wing woke up with a dragon tattoo on her arm. She then walked over to Davos and was instructed by Rand to put her finegr on Davos' third eye and then it will draw the heart of the dragon to her. She did so and felt excruciating pain that woke Davos up. He used the Iron Fist to break free, causing an explosion. Wing was incapacitated on the ground, but was able to get up while Rand protected her. She complained about her fist burning. She looked down to see her fist glowing white. Wing immediately felt pain, but thought they could beat Davos if he was in as much pain as her. Rand said that they needed to complete the transfer or they could both die. Davos punched the ground, causing an explosion so he could escape.
==== Battle at Eden Towers ====
: "End it. I want you to do what he couldn't do. End it.Then I'd be just like you"
: ―Davos and Colleen Wing[src]
Walking down the street, Wing was still in pain. Her and Danny Rand concluded they needed to find a way to finish the transfer. They arrived at Eden Towers to find Walker trying to kill Davos. They warned her not to, but she did not care. Davos then attacked Wing and they fought, trying to take the whole fist for themselves.
Davos punched the wall, leading the fight outside. Wing said he did not deserve to have the fist. Davos talked about who he was in K'un-Lun and how it was his right. Wing did not care and they kept fighting. As Davos charged up his fist, she did as well. They punched each other, leading to an explosion, knocking them both out.
Wing woke up to Davos touching her forehead. The power of the dragon was close to returning to him, but she was able to knock him over. As she gained her footing, Rand fought Davos. They then double teamed him. Rand held Davos down as Wing touched his forehead, completing the transfer. Davos wished to be killed, but Wing refused, saying she would be just like Davos. She then walked away with the Iron Fist. She told Rand to move before punching the ground, causing Davos to get pushed the other way and knocked out.
==== Heart of the Dragon ====
: "I'm proud of you, Colleen. And I'm excited to see what you do with that thing.""That's the hard part. Using a weapon to make peace.""I can't think of anybody better suited to try."
: ―Misty Knight and Colleen Wing[src]
As Davos got carried away, Misty Knight jokingly reminded Wing that she said she would never get tattoos, but here she was. Wing brought up Knight's now broken arm. Knight asked what it was like to be the heart of the dragon. Wing told her that it felt right. However, it was hard to use a weapon to make peace. Wing asked what Knight planned to do and Knight was not sure if she wanted to take the captain's job. Wing told her that Knight had skills and they could have never done it without her. Knight said that "Knight and Wing" had a ring to it. Wing offered to hang out soon. Knight said it could be soon because she was worried about Luke Cage. Wing said she could call if she had trouble.
As Wing and Danny Rand walked away, Rand asked about them, saying they had a nice life cooking. Wing agreed, but said they had to be honest to themselves. They have been through so much and will always be bonded. Rand talked about how they first met and Wing talked about fate. She then said she will head to Bayard Community Center. They kissed one last time before leaving.
She went to Bayard and talked to Sam Chung about the aftermath. She also asked if they could have a service for BB to spread his story. She then saw Sherry Yang and approached her. She asked what would happen to the Triad War now that Davos was gone and Yang said it was over thanks to Wing and Rand. Wing talked about what she hoped could happen, but Yang said that it was a tall line. Wing said she would be watching yang just in case, which she understood. Yang then returned the favor by saying that she would not tolerate any interference from her.
Wing returned home to find that Rand was gone. She found a letter from him and read it. Rand was worried that Davos was not wrong. She walked outside reading it, seeing how Rand felt bad about leaving a note instead of telling her. She then saw that all of his clothes were gone. She continued reading to find that Rand knew what the other side of the medallion holding her family crest meant. He heard the story in K'un-Lun and knows that the first person to defeat the dragon was Wu Ao-Shi. In the story, she was the Pirate Queen. Rand believed she was Wing's ancestors. He chalked it up to fate and left New York City to find answers. He said he loved her.
==== A New Purpose ====
: "Hey there! You know this doesn't have to go this way, right?"
: ―Colleen Wing[src]
Several months later, Wing began using both the Iron Fist and her family's katana to act as a vigilante in New York City. She found bank robbers and whistled at them before holding up her katana, which she infused with Chi, making it glow white like her hand. She smiled as she prepared to stop the criminals.
== Personality ==
: "Nobody is born a hero. And it's a difficult thing to become. Because most people are too weak, too stupid or too selfish. Usually all of the above. You're not.""Having power doesn't make you a hero.""I never said it did. I like Danny, and if he gets the Fist back, it'll be in good hands. Or hand. Whatever. But if you had that thing, you would use it right. And you'd kick some serious ass."
: ―Misty Knight and Colleen Wing[src]
Colleen Wing bears a strong character based on discipline, and she prefers to fight her own battles rather than have someone else do the job for her. She's very independent and refuses help from Rand when he offers to help her with paying her rent. Despite her independence, she is also strict on herself to follow the Bushido code of conduct, meaning she must hold loyalty, courage, veracity, compassion, and honor as important, above all else. This led to her feeling great shame when she used her combat skills to earn money in illegal fight clubs, in which she felt free and out of touch with her disciplined nature. As a martial arts mentor, she is strict with her students and bears little tolerance for lackluster performance. She can also be quick to anger at times, but she tries to maintain her calm and give her adversaries a fair warning before escalating the given situation.
Despite her seemingly harsh nature, her main goal is to motivate her students to defend themselves and others from local threats happening in their neighborhoods. She even recognizes when a fully dedicated student such as Claire Temple makes progress at a rapid rate.
As Wing told Danny Rand, she is not very sociable. But after getting to know him better, she begins to trust him and becomes more open to her emotions; so much so that she decides to devote her life to aiding Rand whenever he needed.
== Powers and Abilities ==
=== Powers ===
* Chi Manipulation: After gaining the power of the Iron Fist, Colleen Wing can harness her own Chi to augment her physical and mental capabilities. In addition, Colleen Wing has the power to channel her chi, which she employs in combination with her Katana, making the blade glow just like the Iron Fist.
** Superhuman Strength: By channeling the chi and focusing it into her hand and wrist, Wing can make her fist super-humanly powerful and resistant to injury and pain. With her fist in this state, Wing can exert superhuman strength and force with which she can punch her opponents with tremendous concussive force without sustaining injuries to herself. Wing was able to shatter the ground with a powerful punch in order to stop Davos from getting close to her. Whenever she does summon the Iron Fist, her hand glows white, rather than yellow or red like Danny Rand or Davos.
** Chi Blast: Colleen Wing's fist is able to release powerful waves of concussive force upon impact, sending not only her opponent flying backward but all those around them.
** Chi Absorption: Colleen Wing was able to absorb the chi energy from Davos' body and transfer it into her own body, gaining the abilities of the Iron Fist.
=== Abilities ===
* Master Martial Artist: Wing is physically strong and has shown masterful skill in Karate, Jujitsu, Kempo, and Kenjutsu, as those are available for instruction at her dojo. She was able to briefly take on Danny in a sparring match before being subdued by his masterful Kung Fu skills. Using her skills, she was able to overpower a physically strong and large brawler in a cage fight. Wing also took on a group of men in a bar with the help of Misty Knight. Wing is skilled enough to train other people in martial arts, notably the students of Chikara Dojo, Claire Temple, and Misty Knight. She was even able to duel against Davos evenly and defeated him with some assistance from Danny Rand.
* Sword Mastery: Wing has shown to be a master with a sword, using a Japanese fighting style with her katana. Wing was able to hold her own against her sensei Bakuto in various sword fights, eventually beheading him.
* Master Acrobat: To be added
* Multilingualism: Wing is fluent in English and Japanese, and has a limited recollection of Mandarin, that she only spoke as a child.
== Equipment ==
=== Weapons ===
: "I'm told my uniforms confiscated something unusual from you.""It's a katana. It was passed down.""It's weird."
: ―Misty Knight and Colleen Wing[src]
* Katana: Wing uses a traditional Japanese katana as her weapon of choice. She was able to take down many Hand ninjas, and fight Bakuto on equal terms.
=== Other Equipment ===
* Mark of Shou-Lao: With the aid of the Crane Sisters, Wing had the mark of the Dragon tattooed onto her arm, which allowed her to absorb the Iron Fist away from Davos and channel her Chi into her fist to turn it into a powerful weapon, making her the Immortal Iron Fist.

== Trivia ==
* In the comics, Colleen Wing is the daughter of Lee Wing, a professor of oriental studies, and Azumi Ozawa, a high-ranking member of a female-only elite team within the Hand. She was trained by her grandfather in the ways of the samurai and became Misty Knight's partner in a team called the Daughters of the Dragon.
== Behind the Scenes ==
* Tamiko Brownlee, Ellette Craddock, and Stephanie Vovou were stunt doubles for Jessica Henwick in the role of Colleen Wing.
* Henwick turned down an opportunity to audition for Xu Xialing in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings as she didn't want to put a "lid" on potentially reprising Colleen in the MCU.
