Previously on Wolverine and the X-Men.

Behold your legacy.

I have been trumpeting a call to arms against the mutants for many years.

This is a war no one will win.

As such, I have now halted the Sentinel program.

Charles Xavier, telepath.

Orders: Capture alive.

Tell Mastermold I can lead him to Charles Xavier.

It can't be.

I'm afraid it is, Scott. No one attacked the X-Men.

It was Jean.

She caused the explosion.

Stop!

Jean.

We'll get your memory back, Jean.

Emma's gonna start working with you in the morning.

What if she can't help me?

She will.

The others are out in the hall.

They're waiting to say hi.

What's happening?

We've waited a long time for this, Jean.

Well done, Emma. The Phoenix finally belongs to the Inner Circle.

Jean?

Jean?

Jean!

Hank, please tell me you see something.

I'm afraid I don't.

Surveillance was hacked into last night,

so an abduction seems likely.

Forget searching the grounds.

She was taken by air.

Storm, what do you see?

Frost!

From what I'm gathering it was a psychic attack, quite powerful.

Oh, really? What a surprise.

What do you think you're doing?

Logan, we need her on Cerebro!

You're making a mistake, Logan.

No, I made a mistake in trusting you.

Are you out of your mind?

She was in the infirmary last night, Summers,

and out front when Jean was taken by chopper.

Emma?

I was the first to awaken,

so I went looking for her, but she was already gone.

Yeah, we'll see.

Because when I get back, the truth is coming out one way or the other.

Scott!

Scott, I was the one who found Jean, remember?

But I can't find her again from in here.

Charles, I need to talk to you.

Logan, I was hoping to see Jean with you.

How is she doing?

I screwed up.

Chuck, I let her get taken.

What happened?

We were laid out by a psychic blow,

and then someone snatched her.

Psychic? Do you know from whom?

Oh, yeah, Emma Frost, but she wasn't working alone.

Find out what you can from her, Logan, because Jean must be found.

She must be controlled before the war begins.

Or it will be too late.

Charles?

Charles!

Bishop, what has happened?

We have to get you deeper into the cave. Now!

Mutant target identified.

Halt, mutant.

Mutant detected.

Targeting.

No. No!

This isn't right!

Mutant target identified.

It wasn't supposed to happen like this.

What are you saying?

I...

I'm the one who told Mastermold about Xavier.

But no one else was supposed to get hurt!

Marrow, you did this?

I didn't mean to. I have to help them.

No, you've done enough.

Now it's too late.

Whatcha reading, Wanda?

Pietro?

The Cornerstone to Building a Successful Society.

Sounds boring.

Wanda, you can't go yanking a man's power out from under him like that.

What are you doing here, Pietro?

You know how father will react if he finds you.

Hey, it's all good.

I was invited back.

I seriously doubt that.

It's seriously true.

All it took was the delivery of a certain "package."

What package?

Signed, sealed and delivered.

Let me out of here!

You abducted Senator Kelly?

Hey, it's what the old man wanted.

You fools!

I shut down the Sentinel program to prevent the war.

You're only pushing us back into it.

Not us.

You.

Yes?

Trask, we're back on schedule.

Start bringing the Sentinels online.

Why?

We're attacking Genosha.

Tonight.

Father, what have you done?

You've spoken to Pietro.

Yes, I did.

I'm sorry, dear.

I should have been the one to tell you.

Father, Genosha has been such a peaceful sanctuary.

Why are we doing this?

Because there's something wrong with a world

where the powerful must take refuge from the weak.

After today, it will be the humans who need to seek refuge.

I don't understand.

Why would you initiate a war

after Charles Xavier showed you a future where no one wins?

Because now I control both sides.

Humanity will never even know what hit them.

And in the end, the future will be ours.

Receiving data.

That's it? Fifteen?

You halted production, remember?

How long before they're ready?

Without Mastermold handling the programming,

we have to do it one by one.

How long?

Four hours, maybe more.

You have one.

What is the urgency?

This goes against everything we planned.

We need to overwhelm Magneto's powers.

That means sending 50 or more!

We don't have enough!

What is it, Hank?

A communication from Genosha.

She'd only talk to you.

Kurt.

Wanda.

What is going on?

I don't have much time, but you should know that my father

has replaced Senator Kelly with a mutant impostor.

Why would he do that?

So he can launch the Sentinels on Genosha.

Wait. He wants to launch them?

When will this take place?

Tonight.

You got any idea what you've done?

She was our only link to finding Jean!

Which she couldn't do sitting in a cell!

You've got stars in your eyes, Summers,

or you'd see it too! She's involved!

I believe in her, Logan.

Yeah? And where is she now?

Logan, you'd better meet me in the War Room.

We have a problem.

Terrific.

Greetings, Charles Xavier.

Mastermold.

I know the reason you've been hunting me

and your plan will not work.

That statement is incorrect.

You can't harness my telepathy without the Cerebro unit,

and it was destroyed by your own Sentinels.

Affirmative. The unit was destroyed.

But the technology remained.

You built another.

No.

No, you can't do this!

Your mutants, Charles Xavier,

have no place left to hide.

I'll take over, girls.

Jean.

Jean, it's time for you to remember who you are.

Let's wake up now, shall we?

Scott... No.

That's it. Let it all come back to you.

Scott!

It's all right, Jean.

Scott isn't here, but he's fine.

Everyone is fine.

What... What?

Where am I?

You're safe.

Just breathe slowly and relax.

Now, do you remember who I am?

Yes.

Yes.

You're the one who helped me.

You rescued me from...

From Angel.

That's right. I did.

And now I want to help you again.

Why? What's happening?

Jean, you're in danger.

And it's not only your life that's threatened,

but the lives of everyone you love, including Scott's.

Come with me and I'll explain.

Since the moment you were born,

there's been a power growing within you.

That power pushes against the barriers

that Charles Xavier so wisely put into place when you were a child.

How do you know about that?

I know everything about it, Jean.

It's called the Phoenix Force,

and it's been afflicting telepaths since mutants first emerged.

This Egyptian tablet is over 3,000 years old,

yet it could be telling your story.

As you can see, the Phoenix was present even at this baby's birth.

As she grew, it grew

until finally it reached maturity

and took her over.

Floods, fires, earthquakes,

even shifts in climate.

Throughout history, these events tend to coincide

with the emergence of the Phoenix.

And people die?

Yes, many.

This will happen again. With me, won't it?

Unless I can stop it.

Is that possible?

If we can prevent the force from igniting, yes.

But to do that, we must release it before it matures.

Release it? Where?

Into the atmosphere.

And because psychic beings like this need a host to survive,

we believe it will perish without one.

- We? - Yes.

There is a group of us.

Over the centuries the members change, but not the purpose.

And that purpose has been to find the next telepath

where the Phoenix dwells.

To find you, Jean.

Okay, here's how it is. We'll land on the roof.

Team One will breach the north wing by force.

Team Two, quietly infiltrate the south.

Once inside, we trash that place any way possible.

If those Sentinels reach Genosha,

Magneto will have all the justification he needs for a counterattack.

So until we get a lead on Jean, there's nothing,

I repeat, nothing more important than stopping this war.

They're trying to conceal their approach,

but it's the X-Men, all right.

They'll be here in three minutes.

Then we launch now!

What... No! I won't do it.

What?

Have you lost your mind?

A launch from inside will bring the roof down on us!

Get those Sentinels in the air now, then vacate the building!

Command in progress.

All right, we're going in.
