Mutation‒ it is the key
to our evolution.

It has enabled us to evolve
from a single-celled organism...

into the dominant species
on the planet.

This process is slow,
normally taking thousands
and thousands of years.

But every few hundred millennia,
evolution leaps forward.

Niagara Falls. Up...

the Canadian Rockies,
and then it's only a few
hundred miles to Anchorage.

Well, won't it be
kind of cold?

Well, that's
the point, stupid.

Otherwise, it wouldn't
be an adventure.

And when are you
gonna do this?

I don't know.

After high school.
Before college.

Marie! David?
I don't know what
happened to him.

I don't know what‒
I just touched him.

I didn't‒
I didn't mean‒

- Call an ambulance!
- Don't touch.

- Honey‒
- Just get away from me!
- Call an ambulance!

Don't touch me!

Ladies and gentlemen,

we are now seeing
the beginnings of another
stage of human evolution.

These mutations
manifest at puberty...

and are often triggered
by periods of heightened
emotional stress.

Thank you, Ms. Grey.
It was quite
educational.

However, it fails
to address the issue that
is the focus of this hearing.

Three words:
Are mutants dangerous?

I'm afraid that's
an unfair question,
Senator Kelly.

After all, the wrong person
behind the wheel of a car
can be dangerous.

Well, we do license
people to drive.

Yes, but not to live.
Senator, it is a fact...

that mutants
who have come forward and
revealed themselves publicly...

have been met with fear,
hostility, even violence.

It is because of that
ever-present hostility...

that I am urging
the Senate to vote
against mutant registration.

- To force mutants to expose
themselves will only further‒
- Expose themselves?

What is it the mutant community
has to hide I wonder...

that makes them so afraid
to identify themselves?

I didn't say they were hiding.
Let me show you what
is being hidden, Ms. Grey.

I have here
a list of names
of identified mutants...

living right here
in the United States.

- Senator Kelly‒
- Now, here's a girl in Illinois
who can walk through walls.

Now, what's to stop her
from walking
into a bank vault...

or into the White House
or into their houses?

Senator Kelly‒
And there are
even rumors, Ms. Grey,

of mutants so powerful
that they can enter our minds
and control our thoughts,

taking our
God-given free will.

I think the American people
deserve the right to decide...

whether they want their children
to be in school with mutants,

to be taught by mutants.

Ladies and gentlemen,

the truth is
that mutants are very real,

and they are among us.

We must know who they are,
That's right!

and, above all,
we must know...

what they can do.

Eric.

- What are you doing here?
- Why do you ask questions...

to which you already
know the answers?

Don't give up
on them, Eric.

What would you
have me do, Charles? I've
heard these arguments before.

It was a long time ago.

Mankind has evolved
since then.

Yes,

into us.

You sneaking around
in here, Charles?

Whatever are you
looking for?

I'm looking for hope.

I will bring you hope,
old friend.

And I ask
only one thing in return.

Don't get in my way.

We are the future, Charles,
not them.

They no longer matter.

This is it.

Where are we?

I thought you said
you were gonna take me
as far as Laughlin City.

This is Laughlin City.

Gentlemen, in all my years,

I've never seen
anything like that.

Are you gonna let this man
walk away with your money?

I'll fight him!

Ladies and gentlemen,
our savior!

Whatever you do,
don't hit him in the balls.

You said anything goes.
Anything goes,
but he'll take it personal.

Ladies and gentlemen,

tonight's winner
and still king of the cage,

the Wolverine!

You want
something new, honey?

Or are you sticking
with water?

I'll have a beer.

Ellis Island, once
the arrival point for thousands
of American immigrants...

is opening
its doors again.

Preparations are nearly
completed for the upcoming
United Nations world summit.

With nearly
every invitation confirmed,

the event promises to be
the largest single gathering
of world leaders in history.

The leaders of over 200 nations
will discuss issues ranging from
the world's economic climate...

and weapons treaties
to the mutant phenomenon and
its impact on our world stage.

Many American legislators
have contended...

that debate over mutant issues
should be the primary focus
of what is, on the surface,

a strictly
diplomatic affair.

You owe me some money.
Come on, Stu.
Let's not do this.

No man takes
a beating like that
without a mark to show for it.

Come on, buddy.
This isn't gonna
be worth it.

I know what you are.
You lost your money. Keep this
up, you'll lose something else.

Come on, buddy.

Look out!

Get out of my bar,
freak.

- What the hell are you doing?
- I'm sorry. I needed a ride.

- Thought you might help me.
- Get out.

Where am
I supposed to go?
I don't know.

You don't know
or you don't care?
Pick one.

I saved your life.
No, you didn't.

You don't have anything
to eat, do you?

I'm Rogue.

Were you in the army?

Doesn't that mean
you were in the army?

- Wow.
- What?

- Suddenly my life
doesn't look that bad.
- If you'd prefer the road‒

No. No. It looks great.

Looks cozy.

Put your hands
on the heater.

I'm not gonna
hurt you, kid.

It's nothing personal.
It's just that...

when people touch my skin,
something happens.

What?
I don't know.

They just get hurt.

Fair enough.

When they come out,
does it hurt?

Every time.

So, what kind of a name
is Rogue?

I don't know. What kind
of a name is Wolverine?

My name's Logan.

Marie.

You know, you should wear
your seat belt.

Look, kid.
I don't need advice
on auto safety from‒

You all right?

- Kid, are you all right?
- I'm stuck!

Weren't you supposed to bring
someone back with you?

- What happened?
- They knew.

Charles.

Hmm.

- Where is the mutant now?
- With them.

I have made the first move.

That is all
they know.

Come. The U.N. summit
is approaching.

Time for
our little test.

Where's he going?

Where are you going?

Over here.

Where are you going?
This way.

He's over there.

- Let's go.
- What's your hurry?

Good morning, Logan.

I'd like your definitions
of weak and strong
anthropic principles...

on my desk
on Wednesday.

That'll be all.

Bye, Professor.
Bye, Kitty.

Physics.

I'm Charles Xavier.
Would you like
some breakfast?

- Where am I?
- Westchester, New York.

You were attacked.
My people brought you here
for medical attention.

- I don't need
medical attention.
- Yes, of course.

- Where's the girl?
- Rogue? She's here.
She's fine.

Really.

Ah, Logan, I'd like you
to meet Ororo Monroe,
also called Storm.

This is Scott Summers,
also called Cyclops.
Hello.

They saved your life.

I believe
you've already
met Dr. Jean Grey.

You're in my school
for the gifted.
For mutants.

- You'll be safe here
from Magneto.
- What's a Magneto?

A very powerful mutant
who believes that a war
is brewing...

between mutants and
the rest of humanity.

I've been following
his activities
for some time.

The man who attacked you
is an associate of his
called Sabretooth.

Sabretooth?

Storm.

What do they call you?
Wheels?

This is the stupidest
thing I've ever heard.

Cyclops, right?
You wanna get
out of my way?

Logan,
It's been almost
15years, hasn't it?

Living from day to day,
moving from place to place,

with no memory
of who or what you are.

Shut up.

Give me a chance.

I may be able to help you
find some answers.

How do you know?

You're not
the only one with gifts.

- Where are you going?
- Where's he going?

What are you doing there?

What is this place?

Anonymity is
a mutant's first chance...

against
the world's hostility.

Hey, no powers!

To the public,
we're merely a school
for gifted youngsters.

Cyclops, Storm and Jean
were some of my first students.

I protected them, taught them
to control their powers...

and in time,
teach others to do the same.

The students
are mostly runaways.

Frightened, alone.

Some with gifts so extreme
that they've become a danger...

to themselves
and those around them.

Like your friend, Rogue.

Incapable of physical
human contact, probably
for the rest of her life,

and yet here she is
with others her own age,

learning being accepted,
not feared.

- John.
- Sorry.

I'm Bobby.
What's your name?

- Rogue.
- What'll happen to her?

Well, that's up to her.
Rejoin the world as an educated young woman...

or stay on
to teach others...

to become what the children
have affectionately called
X-Men.

Welcome to Mutant High.

But the school
is merely a public face.

The lower levels, however, are
an entirely different matter.

When I was a boy,
I discovered I had the power
to control people's minds,

make them think or do
whatever I wanted.

When I was 17,
I met a young man
named Eric Lensherr.

He, too, had
an unusual power.

He could create magnetic fields
and control metal.

Believing that humanity
would never accept us,

he grew angry and vengeful.

He became Magneto.

There are mutants out there
with incredible powers, Logan,

and many who do not share
my respect for mankind.

If no one is equipped
to oppose them, humanity's
days could be over.

I'll make a deal
with you, Logan.

Give me 48 hours
to find out what
Magneto wants with you,

and I give you my word
that I will use
all my power...

to help you piece together
what you've lost...

and what
you're looking for.

Senator, listen, you favor
gun registration, yes?

Well, some of these
so-called children...

possess more than 10 times
the destructive force
of any handgun.

No, I don't see a difference.
All I see are weapons
in our schools.

Well, that's fair enough.
All right.

So?

It's gonna be close.
A vote this loaded
is always close.

What about the U.N. summit?
The whole world
will be watching.

Maybe there's some way
you could use that
to your advantage.

We're Americans, Henry.

Let the rest
of the damn world deal
with mutants in their own way.

You know this situation?

These mutants?

People like this Jean Grey?

If it were up to me,
I'd lock 'em all away.

It's a war.
It's the reason
people like me exist.

Where the hell are we?

Pilot!

People like you are
the reason I was afraid
to go to school as a child.

- I'm sorry.
- For what?

If I hurt you.

So, couldn't wait to get
my shirt off again, huh?

The metal is an alloy
called adamantium.

Supposedly indestructible.
It's been surgically grafted
to his entire skeleton.

How could he have survived
a procedure like that?

His mutation.
He has uncharted
regenerative capability,

which enables him
to heal rapidly.

This also makes his age
impossible to determine.

He could very well
be older than you,
Professor.

Who did this to him?
He doesn't know.

Nor does he remember
anything about his life
before it happened.

Experimentation
on mutants.

It's not unheard of.

But I've never seen
anything like this before.

What do you think
Magneto wants with him?

I'm not entirely sure
it's him Magneto wants.

Yech!

Toad has a wicked
tongue, Senator.

Just like you.

Who are you people?
Where's Henry?

Mr. Guyrich has been dead
for some time, Senator.

But I've had Mystique here
keep you company.

She takes
so many shapes.

Whatever you do to me,
you'll make me right.

Every word I've spoken
will be confirmed.

Are you a God-fearing
man, Senator?

That's such
a strange phrase.

I've always thought
of God as a teacher,

as a bringer
of light, wisdom
and understanding.

You see, I think
what you really
are afraid of is me.

Me and my kind.
The Brotherhood of Mutants.

Though it's not
so surprising, really.

Mankind has always feared
what it doesn't understand.

Well, don't fear God,
Senator,

and certainly,
don't fear me.

Not anymore.

What do you intend
to do to me?

Let's just say
God works too slowly.

I think you'll
be comfortable here.

- Where is your room?
- With Scott down the hall.

Is that your gift?
Putting up with that guy?

Actually, I'm telekinetic.
I can move things
with my mind.

Really?
What kinds of things?

All kinds of things.

I also have some
telepathic ability.

- What, like your Professor?
- Nowhere near that powerful.

But he's teaching me
to develop it.

I'm sure he is.

So read my mind.
I'd rather not.

Come on.
You afraid you might like it?

I doubt it.

What do you see?

Scott.

Good night, Logan.

You gonna tell me
to stay away from your girl?

If I had to do that,
she wouldn't be my girl.

Hmm. Well, then, I guess
you've got nothing
to worry about,

do you, Cyclops?

Yeah, it must just burn you up
that a boy like me
saved your life, huh?

You ought to be careful.
I might not be there next time.

Oh, and, Logan,

stay away from my girl.

Logan.

Logan. Logan, wake up.

Help me.

Somebody help!

Scott, grab a pillow.

It was an accident.

- Logan?
- What happened?

- Is she all right?
- She'll be all right.

What did she do to me?

Whenever Rogue touches someone,
she takes their energy,
their life force.

In the case of mutants,
she absorbs their gifts
for a short while.

In your case,
your ability to heal.

I feel like
she almost killed me.

If she'd held out any longer,
she could have.

How are we feeling,
Senator?
Advanced, I hope.

Hmm.

What the hell
have you done to me?

Senator,
this is pointless.
Where would you go?

Who would take you in
now that you're one of us?

Tommy, let it go!
Tommy, please let it go!

I'm telling Mommy.

Is that a mutant?

...of this week's U.N. summit.

With the leaders
of over 200 nations attending,

the Secret Service
has transformed Ellis Island...

into a veritable Fort Knox
for tomorrow night's
opening gala.

Ellis Island rests
less than one mile
from the shores of Manhattan.

Rogue.

Bobby.
Rogue, what did you do?

They say that you're
stealing other mutants' powers.

No, no.
I borrowed his powers.

You never use your power
against another mutant.

I had no choice.

No, you have
to understand me.
If I were you,

I'd get myself out of here.

What do you mean?
Listen,
the students are freaked.

Professor Xavier's furious.
I don't know what he'll do
with you.

I think it'll be easier
on your own.

You should go.

What are you
looking for, Eric?

It's strange. There are
more powerful mutants
out there.

Why should this one
be so important to him?

Maybe it's his way
with people.
You don't like him.

- How could you tell?
- Well, I am psychic, you know.

- Where is she?
- Who?

Rogue.

She's gone.

Welcome, Professor.

Welcome to Cerebro.

This certainly is
a big, round room.

The brain waves of mutants
are different from average
human beings.

This device amplifies
my power,

allowing me to locate mutants
across great distances.

That's how I intend
to find Rogue.

Why don't you just use it
to find Magneto?
I've been trying.

But he seems to have found
some way to shield himself
from it.

How would he know
how to do that?

Because he
helped me build it.

Now, if you'll excuse me.

Have you ever‒

Used Cerebro?

No. It takes
a degree of control,

and, uh,
for someone like me, it's‒

Dangerous.

...now boarding on track four.

- She's at the train station.
- Where is it?

A few miles west of here.
Logan, you can't leave
the mansion.

- It's just the opportunity
Magneto needs.
- I'm the reason she took off.

- We had a deal.
- She's all right.
She's just upset.

Storm, Cyclops, find her.
See if you can talk to her.

What?
Where's
my motorcycle?

Hey, kid.

I'm sorry
about last night.

Me too.

- You running again?
- I heard the professor
was mad at me.

- Well, who told you that?
- A boy at school.

When's the last time you saw her?
She was supposed to
meet me for lunch.

You look around.
I'll check with
the ticket agent.

Welcome, Professor.

- You think I should go back.
- No, I think you should
follow your instincts.

The first boy I ever kissed...

ended up in a coma
for three weeks.

I can still feel him
inside my head.

And it's the same
with you.

There's not many people
that'll understand what
you're going through,

but I think this guy's
Xavier's one of them.

He seems to genuinely
wanna help you,

and that's
a rare thing...

for people like us.

So, what do you say?

Give these geeks
one more shot?

Come on.
I'll take care of you.

- You promise?
- Yeah.

Yeah, I promise.

Come along now.

She's about 17.
Uh, my height.

Has brown hair,
and she‒

Scream for me.

Quit playing around.

You must be Wolverine.

That remarkable metal
doesn't run through
your entire body, does it?

Stop! Stop it!

What the hell
do you want with me?

You? My dear boy,
whoever said I wanted you?

Young people.

All right, hold it.
Hold it right there.

Stay where you are.
Put your hands
over your heads now.

You Homo sapiens
and your guns.

- That's enough, Eric.
- Let them go.

Why not come out where
I can see you, Charles?

- What do you‒
- Want her for?

Can't you read my mind?

What now?
Save the girl?

You'll have
to kill me, Charles.
And what will that accomplish?

Let them pass that law. They'll
have you in chains with a number
burned into your forehead.

- It won't be‒
- That way.

Then kill me
and find out.

Huh? Then release me.

Fine.

Care to press your luck,
Charles?

I don't think
I can stop them all.

Still unwilling
to make sacrifices.

That's what
makes you weak.

Good-bye, Charles.

You said he wanted me.

I made a terrible mistake.

His helmet
was somehow designed
to block my telepathy.

I couldn't see
what he was after
till it was too late.

Where are you going?
I'm gonna find her.

How?
The traditional way.
Look.

Logan, you can't
do this alone.

Who's gonna help me?
You? So far you've
all done a bang-up job.

Then help us.
Fight with us.

Fight with you?
What, join the team?
Be an X-Man?

Who the hell
do you think you are?
You're a mutant.

The whole world out there
is full of people
that hate and fear you.

And you're wasting your time
trying to protect 'em?
I got better things to do.

You know,
Magneto's right.
There's a war coming.

- You sure
you're on the right side?
- At least I've chosen a side.

I'm looking
for Dr.Jean Grey.

Senator Kelly.

I'm Professor
Charles Xavier.

I was afraid if I went
to a hospital, they would‒

Treat you like a mutant?

We're not what you think.
Not all of us.

Tell it to the ones
who did this to me.

Senator...

I want you to try and relax.

I'm not going
to hurt you.

Welcome to the future,

brother.

The machine emits radiation
that triggers mutation
in ordinary human beings.

But the mutation
is unnatural.

Kelly's body
is rejecting it.
His cells began...

to break down
almost immediately.

- What effect does radiation
have on mutants?
- There appears to be none.

But I fear it will seriously
harm any normal person
exposed to it.

- So what does Magneto
want with Rogue?
- I don't know.

Wait a second.

You said this machine
draws its power from Magneto...

- and that it weakened him.
- Yes.

In fact,
it nearly killed him.

He's gonna transfer
his power to Rogue...

and use her
to power the machine.

Is somebody there?

Yes. I'm here.

Please don't leave me.

Don't want to be alone.

All right.

Do you hate
normal people?

Sometimes.

Why?

I suppose...

I'm afraid of them.

Well,

I think you've got
one less person to‒

to be afraid of.

Cyclops, you and Storm
ready the jet.
I'm gonna find Rogue.

Jean, get Logan
a uniform.
Whoa, wait a minute.

He's not coming
with us, is he?
Yes.

I'm sorry, Professor,
but he'll endanger
the mission. And if‒

Hey, I wasn't the one
who gave the train station
a new sunroof, pal.

No, you were the one who
stabbed Rogue through the chest.
Scott‒

Hey, why don't you take
your little mission
and stick it up your‒

Senator Kelly is dead.

I'm going to find her.

Settle this.

I'm sorry.

You can still hear me,
can't you?

You've taught me
everything in my life
that was ever worth knowing.

And if anything happens,

well, I'll take care
of them.

Jean?

Jean!

No!

Jean?

Jean.

Answer me. Please.

I know
where Magneto's going.

Magnificent, isn't she?

- I've seen it.
- I first saw her in 1949.

America was gonna be
the land of tolerance,

of peace.

Are you going
to kill me?

- Yes.
- Why?

Because there is
no land of tolerance.
There is no peace.

Not here
or anywhere else.

Women and children,
whole families destroyed...

simply because
they were born different
from those in power.

Well, after tonight,
the world's powerful
will be just like us.

They will return home
as brothers.

As mutants.

Our cause will be theirs.

Your sacrifice
will mean our survival.

I'll understand if that
comes as small consolation.

Put her in the machine.

I'll raise it.

Magneto is here.
Liberty Island.

Now, presumably, his objective
is to mutate the world leaders
at the U.N. summit...

on Ellis Island.

He doesn't know
his machine kills.

And judging from what
the Professor saw, if Magneto
gave Rogue enough power‒

He could wipe out
everyone in New York City.

We can insert here
at the George Washington Bridge,

come around the bank
just off of Manhattan.

We land on the far side
of Liberty Island here.

What about harbor patrol?
Radar?

If they have anything
that can pick up our jet,
they deserve to catch us.

You actually go outside
in these things?

Well, what would you prefer,
yellow spandex?

Whoa!

Okay, there's the bridge.
I'm taking her down.

Storm, some cover,
please.

Toad, Mystique, stay sharp.
We're not alone.

And you stay here.

Once I give
my power to the girl,
I'll be temporarily weakened.

You'll be
my only defense.

Sounds like
a storm's coming.

- Sorry.
- You call that a landing?

The torch.

...within a mile
of the proceedings.

The first dignitaries
started to arrive
about an hour ago,

greeted with a sort
of garden-party atmosphere,

which was designed
to entertain them,

as the others
traversed the rigid security.

- There's someone here.
- Where?

I don't know.
Keep your eye open.
Logan.

Damn it.

Anything?
I know there's someone here.
I just can't see 'em.

Wait!
Wait!

All right, back up.
Back up.

Jean!

Oh, God.

Don't move.

Don't you people ever die?

Do you know
what happens to a toad
when it's struck by lightning?

Same thing that happens
to everything else.

Logan, is that you?

Shh.

The other one
ain't far away.

Come on.
We have to regroup.

I know,
but there's a problem.

You're not part of the group.

Hey, hey, it's me.

- Prove it.
- You're a dick.

Okay.

Hey.

Everybody
get out of here.

What is it?
I can't move.

Ah, my brothers.

Welcome. And, you,

just point
those claws of yours
in a safer direction.

You'd better close
your eyes.

- Storm, fry him.
- Oh, yes.

A bolt of lightning into
a huge copper conductor.

I thought you lived
at a school.

For those of you
who may not be familiar with
the historical significance‒

Mystique?

Mystique?
I've seen
Senator Kelly.

So the good senator
survived his fall...

and the swim to shore.

He's become even
more powerful than
I could have imagined.

- He's dead.
- It's true.

I saw him die.
Like those people
down there will die.

Are you sure
you saw what you saw?

I would also like
to thank the president
of the United States...

for hosting this event...

under the lights of
the great city of New York.

Why do none of you understand
what I'm trying to do?

Those people down there,
they control our fate and
the fate of every other mutant.

Well,

soon our fate
will be theirs.

Help! Please help me!

You're so full of shit.

If you were really
so righteous,
it'd be you in that thing.

Help!
Somebody help me!

Please!

Somebody please help me!

Somebody!

Help‒

Logan!

- I'm sorry, my dear.
- Don't do this.

This is mine.

You owe me a scream.

Hey, bub. I'm not
finished with you yet.

Jean.

Scott, when I tell you,
open your eyes.
No.

- Trust me.
- You drop something?

Now.

Thanks.
Don't mention it.

We gotta get her
out of there.
Cyclops, can you hit it?

- The rings are
too fast. I'll kill her.
- Just shoot it.

- Storm, can you get me up there?
- I can't control it like that.

- You could fly
right over the torch.
- Then let me go.

If I don't make it,
then at least you can
still blast the damn thing.

All right, do it.

Jean, use your power.
Try to steady him.

Hang on to something.

Scott, wait.

I have to.
Just wait.

I have a shot.

I'm taking it.

Come on.

Hey, this one's alive.
Let's get him out of here.

Welcome back.

I knew you'd find
your way.

I had you to guide me.

How did we do?

Oh!
Oh, that tickles.

Hey.

Hey.

How're you feeling?
Fantastic.

That was
a brave thing you did.

Did it work?
Yeah. She's fine.

She took on a few
of your more charming
personality traits for a while.

But we lived through it.

I think she's
a little taken with you.

Well, you can tell her
my heart belongs
to someone else.

You know, you and I‒
How's the professor?

He's good.
Good.

There's an abandoned
military compound at Alkali Lake
in the Canadian Rockies,

close to where
we found you.

There's not much left,
but you might find
some answers.

- Thank you.
- Are you going
to say good-bye to them?

The Mutant Registration Act
lost its main proponent today...

with the dramatic reversal
of Senator Robert Kelly,

who until this time had
provided the loudest voice in
the cry for mutant registration.

I was wrong
on this particular issue.

And I hope in time
I may be forgiven.
Thank you.

- The Mutant Registration Act continues to draw support...
- Mystique.

Son of a bitch.

from many Parents Rights groups
who feel threatened...

by unidentified mutants
in their school systems.

In a related story,

the body of Senator Kelly's
longtime aide, Henry Guyrich,
was found today.

Preliminary coroner reports
seem to indicate that Guyrich
was mauled by a bear.

Hey.

You running again?
No, not really.

I have some things
to take care of up north.

I kind of like it.

I don't want you to go.

I'll be back for this.

Doesn't it ever wake you
in the middle of the night?

The feeling that someday
they will pass
that foolish law...

or one just like it
and come for you...

and your children?

It does, indeed.

What do you do when
you wake up to that?

I feel a great swell of pity
for the poor soul...

who comes to that school
looking for trouble.

Why do you come here,
Charles?

Why do you ask questions
to which you already know
the answers?

Oh, yes.

Your continuing search
for hope.

You know this
plastic prison of theirs
won't hold me forever.

The war is still coming,
Charles, and I intend
to fight it...

by any means necessary.

And I will always
be there,

old friend.
