Previously, on X -Men.

If you try to escape, your collars will be reactivated at once.

If you try to remove your collar, it will explode.

And destroy you. Now, get to work! Now, Captain Jubilee!

My powers! The collars you use to control your mutants.

They were invented by a scientist in Scotland.

It's him.

Who are you? The Wild Man of Borneo.

His name is Cable. He was a mercenary in the leader's army until he found out

the leader wasn't the champion of democracy he claimed to be.

So he threw his wages back in the leader's face and took to the hills to

revolution. See you around.

How much is it worth to you to have that man, Cable, eliminated?

Uh -uh.

Cable lives by his code, but he will not live long.

I should be frightened for him. What do you mean?

They say you keep a mad scientist up here.

Dr. Frankenstein, perhaps.

His name's Gottfried Adler. He's an expert on genetics.

But he's not here.

I sent him to Scotland to do research.

We're alone, then.

I'd better take you home.

Why must you always push me away?

You wouldn't want to get close to me.

Not if you knew what I was really like.

Are you Adler? I'm Warren Worthington.

The third.

Who are you?

Next time you take a shot at somebody, make sure you hit him. I'll remember

that.

You got a short memory.

Warren?

You picked the wrong chalet to terrorize.

What's going on?

Warren? Are you all right?

What? Where's Warren?

He's all right. My weapon set to stun.

Where's Adler?

He's... he's gone to Scotland.

Scotland? You mean Muir Island.

Get down!

Warren's gone.

Don't!

No, I didn't mean to...

I'm sorry.

You created the Center for Mutant Research, my dear Moira.

Can't you demand to review Dr. Adler's work?

I... I would if I could.

But he's not really part of the center.

He pays me well for everything.

His one request was to be left alone.

Then you don't know if he really can reverse mutations.

I only know what he tells me.

Dr. Adler, it's Moira McTaggart. I have an old friend here who's interested in

your work.

Professor Xavier from America.

Visitors are forbidden.

Not allowed.

You promised no interference.

Xavier!

I tried to probe his mind, but some force came between us.

Do you think Adler could be a mutant himself?

Well, no. That would explain why he's after a cure.

Don't say cure, Moira.

Being a mutant isn't a disease.

It's something you're born with. It's as normal as being a traditional homo

sapien. Not all mutants would agree with you.

What do your X -Men say?

I don't know.

I haven't told them about Adler's discovery.

But it's time I did.

That old boy Juggernaut sure made a mess.

About like that Yankee General. Sure.

Keep an eye on me, Gambit. You might learn something.

Let me put some nails in that for you, Jean.

I always did like working with my hands.

I like to work with my mind.

That mortar looks a little thick, Storm. Better add some water.

Big expert.

Always giving orders.

making up for your screw -ups, Gumbo.

Too bad you don't know how to do anything but pick pockets and steal

babies.

Look out!

What do you think you're doing?

He better be more careful with his mouth.

You better stop worrying about my mouth and start worrying about these.

Why don't you boys calm down?

You afraid I'm gonna hurt him? I always thought you had a soft spot for that

Cajun. About as soft as you, fathead.

You gonna shut up or am I gonna have to help you? Hey, everybody!

Guess who wants to talk to us?

Dr. Adler claims his process can reverse genetic mutations within each cell of

the body.

What? You mean steal our powers?

It could be used as a weapon against us.

But some mutants might welcome the chance to become normal.

Yeah? Who?

There's no right or wrong in choosing to remain a mutant.

You have taught us to value our powers, Professor.

Not for their own sake, but for what they can do for others.

You tell them, Storm.

No deserters in this crowd.

Each of us will have to make his own decision.

If Adler's process really works.

I'm worried about Rogue, Cyclops. Rogue?

Why? Because I know how she feels when I touch your hand. Or when we kiss.

Because I sense her pain.

Vacation, eh?

Muir Island's no good for you.

How about we go to Paris instead?

How about getting your butt out of my car?

Let's have a kiss before you go, huh?

What's wrong, Cher?

You know what happens when I touch somebody. You want to end up in the

Maybe it's worth it, no?

Where you going, Rogue?

Where you going?

What the...

What a dump.

There ain't nothing to steal on this worthless rock.

This friend of yours better show up soon, or I'm going back to jail just for

something to do.

Are we becoming impatient, old stick?

The name's Avalanche, Limey, and what we're becoming is broke.

This scam of hers better pay off big.

That could be Mystique now.

What do you mean, could be?

Don't you know what she looks like?

She's a shape -changer, old man.

One can never be sure.

Looking for me, love?

I sincerely doubt it. Unless your name's Gottfried Adler.

Alas, no.

They call me Pyro.

In the mood for a hot date?

In a bull's -eye.

How about trying that with me?

Well, all right, hon, since you asked me nice.

Dr. Adler?

Visitors are important.

I didn't fly across the whole dang ocean to take no for an answer.

What do you want?

I hear you can change people, Doctor.

Change them so they won't be mutants anymore.

You make me like other people.

And you can name your own price.

You have great strength as well as great beauty.

Why do you wish to become merely normal?

Because... I don't want to live my whole life without knowing what it's like to

touch another human being. I will consider your request.

Come back in one hour.

I will have an answer for you then.

Apocalypse!

You heard what she wanted?

Yes.

Like all people, she is a fool.

But she has great powers.

We'll use the machine.

And make her my slave.

It's time for part B of X -Men, next.

You have taught us to value our powers.

Value our powers.

Moon sure is pretty tonight.

You ever been kissed, girl?

I'm beginning to think I never will be the way you keep going on about the

I'm looking for Godfrey Adler. Well, of course you are, old darling.

He's such a popular fella.

Don't call me darling.

What'd you do?

Fall in? Never mind.

I found our pot of gold.

There seems to be a local scientist who's in big demand these days. As soon

I've dried off, we shall arrange a disappearance.

And my dear friend Mystique, we never know.

Your whole life will change after the treatment.

Believe me.

That's what I'm here for, Doc.

It may be unpleasant at first, but then you will feel nothing.

Well done, old bean.

Y 'all looking for a rematch? Perhaps another time.

No!

Back to good doctor. Right.

You are making a terrible mistake.

I heard a loud crash, Moira. What's going on?

I don't know.

How about you carrying him for a while?

Shall I make him walk?

Listen, old man.

No.

He's a woman.

He's mystique.

And you're a fool, Pyro.

I asked you to come here because I thought Apocalypse might find some use

you. Who's Apocalypse?

Have it the foggiest.

He's my master.

And he'll crush you like an insect if you interfere again.

So your machine doesn't cure mutants.

It turns them into slaves of Apocalypse. You mean you just made up this guy,

Adler? He was real enough.

Until Metapocalypse.

Personally, I find this frightfully confusing.

Y 'all get away from him.

It gets worse.

Oh, you'll need a doctor, sure enough.

I never could say no to a woman.

Dr. Adler, I presume.

What the devil could have happened here?

It appears that Dr.

Adler has been kidnapped.

Professor Xavier.

Cyclops. Gene, what are you doing here?

Rogues disappeared, Professor.

I believe she has come here to see Dr. Adler to undergo his treatment.

If she has, she may be in danger of losing more than her mutant powers.

Listen,

old girl.

Must we shoot this?

We're all making a terrible mistake!

Dr.

Adler!

Who are you?

The name's Cable.

Last known address, Genosha. They used to turn mutants into slaves down there.

I have never heard of it.

They did it with collars with suppressed mutant powers.

Collars you made.

That makes you a dangerous man.

Too dangerous to live.

Get away from that man!

What do you think you're doing?

Making the world safer for mutants.

You are making a terrible mistake.

Dr. Adler is already dead.

That's kind of hard to believe coming from you.

Do you believe me now?

There's Adler.

Drop the weapon.

No.

Look out, y 'all!

No!

Gene!

Y 'all right, hon?

Just bruised, thanks to you.

What about him?

Whoever he was, too late to help him. A most extraordinary young woman.

Thank you, Rogue. You don't know how much this means to me.

But I thought you wanted to be cured.

That's what I thought too, Doc.

But there ain't no cure for who you are.

Then you must live forever in the prison of your mutant powers.

I am my powers. And the good they can do for my friends and for the whole world.

I reckon maybe I can live with that after all.

Thanks anyway, Doc.

Look out!

Look out yourself!

How do you fly without wings?

I don't know. I just do.

You're lucky.

Yeah, lucky.

Dr. Adler! Herr Worthington!

I came here to warn you, Doctor, but it looks like I'm too late.

Why did you not tell me you are a mutant?

Why do you think I've supported your research?

You wish to be changed?

Is the treatment ready?

Apocalypse!

Apocalypse!

I found another nest to become your slave.

The millionaire, Warren Worthington, with the wings of an

angel. How did you know he was a mutant?

I know more of this world than you have even dreamed.

That is why I must destroy you.
