Whetstone
'My Hellions are dead!' Mr Sinister exclaims as he meets with members of the Quiet Council. 'And you dare tell me the resurrections are halted because of a vile superstition?' He tells the Council to not forget how his noble children fell – grasping after the swords of Arakko, fighting to end Saturnyne's bloodbath before it began. 'Did they succeed? No. not even close. We were ambushed by the evil mutants of Arakko, who'd been alerted to our presence' Sinister explains. He wonders who betrayed them, and states that he doesn't want to point fingers, before pointing out that Apocalypse did just buy a house on Arakko. 'No? I'm the only one who finds that weird?' Sinister asks, while Nightcrawler looks on wide-eyed, Jean Grey frowns and Storm folds her arms, glancing narrowing her eyes.
'Make your point, clown-tongue!' Exodus snaps. Sinister turns to his rival and remarks that he was going to honor the names of his murdered teammates. 'But I can hurry it up if that's too silly for you, Bennet' Sinister adds. Exodus scowls, before allowing Sinister to continue. 'Checkmate' Mystique utters as she sits next to Exodus. Sinister informs the Council that Empath, Greycrow, Havok and Kwannon (calling her “Psylocke”) made it to Krakoa before succumbing to their wounds, but that sweet Nanny, Orphan Maker and Wild Child fell in Arakko. 'Only through their loving sacrifice did I make it home myself' Sinister lies, before declaring that they died in Arakko, not Otherworld, so there is not proof that they will come back scrambled. 'Please!' he cries out.
'Wasn't this settled? I thought Professor X is resurrecting them right now' Kate Pryde whispers as she leans over to Emma Frost. 'Let him go on a bit longer. I wanna see if this crocodile will give us some tears' Emma smiles. 'GYAAAHHH! My babies! Bring them back to me!' Sinister shrieks. 'A truly breathtaking lack of shame' Emma utters.
Shortly, at the Hatchery:
'Professor? Something's wrong with Orphan-Maker' Hope Summers calls out as she and the other members of the Five – Egg, Tempus, Proteus and Elixir – approach Charles Xavier, who acknowledges that Orphan Maker's readings are troubling indeed, before asking if he is in stasis. Egg explains that they cut the nutrient flow to Orphan Maker's egg, and that he is dormant for now. Xavier is happy with that course of action, noting that it is better to prevent Orphan Maker's x-gene from expressing itself fully. Hope asks if that is a little severe, but Xavier tells her that he refuses to see any mutant's abilities as anything less than a gift. 'But Peter... Peter has a curse. And he mustn't share it with the world' Xavier remarks cryptically, addressing Orphan Maker by his only known name, “Peter”.
Egg decides that now is a good time to tell Professor X that the other two Arakko deaths came back a little “extra” as well. 'Nanny and Wild Child?' Xavier asks. Hope informs him that their husks matured awful fast, and that they seem a little eager.
Xavier steps into another part of the Hatchery, where Wild Child has emerged from his egg, his body somewhat more muscular and less scrawny than it was previously, while Nanny appears to be still in her egg, save for her legs and arms, which stick out of the egg, similar to the egg-shaped armor she wears. 'You haven't uploaded their consciousnesses yet, have you?' Hope asks. Xavier confirms that he hasn't, and supposes that their backups might call to them, possibly a consequence of their Arakki deaths. 'Either way... maybe it's best if you stand back' he tells Hope and the others.
Meanwhile, in the White Palace:
'I trust you resurrected well?' Emma Frost asks as she gazes out over the ocean which glows under the light of the sun. 'Oh. Yeah. Everything's where it's supposed to be' Alex Summers a.k.a. Havok mumbles as he sits nearby. 'Except that you're here and not with your team' Emma points out. 'Yeah, about that. I guess I was wondering if, you know... you'd all proven your point?' Havok asks. 'How so?' Emma enquires, turning to Alex, who admits that he messed up – twice if they count blowing up Sinister's orphanage – although that was why they were there – but he feels fine. 'I don't belong on a team with a bunch of – you know' Alex declares. Emma tells Alex that this is for his own good. 'Your mind... well, let's not go into that... I wouldn't want to upset you' Emma replies, asking Alex to trust that it is safer if he remains among these Hellions. 'For everyone's sake' she adds.
At Bar Sinister, Manuel de la Rocha a.k.a. Empath asks John Greycrow: 'Sinister's saying we went down in a blaze of glory so he could get home safe?' to which Greycrow tells him that it takes an unquiet mind to think anyone is buying that. 'Psylocke, you hearing this?' Empath asks Kwannon, who turns to her teammates and points out that Sinister gave his report, and it is not their job to question it. 'Cool. Thanks for the backup' Empath mutters.
'Well, well... look at you two!' Greycrow calls out, wide-eyed as he sees Kyle Gibney a.k.a. Wild Child and the mysterious Nanny approach them. Wild Child wears a darker brown costume than normal, with a thick belt around his waist, and large gray cuffs on his wrists. The large collar remains around his neck, while Nanny's egg armor is now a dirty gray color and she wears red boots and gloves that stick out from the armor, and the large faceplate has been modified, also. 'Death agrees with you!' someone remarks. 'You look good, brother' Greycrow smiles at Wild Child, who just growls as he walks past, while Kwannon looks on in shock.
'To me, my Hellions!' Sinister calls out, laughing as he extends his arms to his team. 'Kidding, of course. Keep a healthy perimeter' he instructs them, adding that he doesn't like to be touched. Sinister tells the Hellions that he knows they probably have questions about what went wrong on their last mission, but unfortunately he cannot say a word until the investigation is complete. He declares that what they do know is that Nanny and Wild Child came back better than ever. 'I'll throw you two the floor if there's anyone you'd like to thank' Sinister remarks, but Wild Child and Nanny stare back at him in silence. 'Ooooookay. Business it is!' Sinister exclaims as he explains that young Peter, the Orphan Maker, one of their own, cannot come back without the armor that protects the world from his vicious little x-gene.
A holographic representation of Nanny's ship appears before Sinister as he informs the Hellions that Nanny can't make another suit without her ship, which, he notes is shaped like an egg but also has legs. 'Fell like you were just throwing $#&% at a wall there. But moving on!' Sinister mutters to himself when no one reacts to his comment about Nanny's ship. Sinister reveals that Nanny's egg-ship was repossessed by the Right early last year, and that Nanny has a standing request with the Council to repatriate her ship, but the request was de-prioritized as Nanny uses her ship almost exclusively to steal babies. 'A ghoulish habit we can all agree' Sinister smirks, before joking that he should stop chucking rocks from glass houses, and  asking Nanny if she wants to impress the importance of this mission on the team.
'Peter, Peter, sits on a wall/His power sleeps while Peter is small/But when Peter grows, the end is certain/He'll destroy the world, pull the curtain -' Nanny begins to say as a rhyme before Sinister cuts her off: 'Okay, that's enough. Didn't think she'd rhyme it. My mistake. Who has time for that?' Sinister remarks to the other Hellions, before telling them that they need the suit, or the world cracks in half, or something. 'Should be a tidy little heist' Sinister tells the team, reporting that psy-scans suggest that the stronghold is unmanned and unprotected, save for automated systems, making it a perfect job for the Hellions. 'Any questions?' Sinister asks. 'You leading us on this one?' Greycrow snarls. Sinister holds his hands up and with wide-eyes, claims that he would love to, as he is sure the team would love to have him, but as the sole-survivor of their last mission, he is still healing. 'And in light of the situation – which, I must remind you, we're not allowed to talk about -' Sinister starts to say, before he is interrupted by the arrival of Havok.
'Sorry. Coming in late. Certainly didn't hear that last part so I'll just ask... how the hell did you get us killed, Sinister?' Havok asks. Kwannon looks over at Havok, while Empath puts his hands behind his head . 'Good question' Greycrow decides, turning to Sinister, he suggests that they might settle that now. The Hellions begin to surround Sinister, who smiles at them and tells them to take his private scramjet and travel in style, as they have earned it. 'He's hiding something' Empath declares, and Kwannon asks Havok to watch the door, as her fist suddenly glows with her powerful psi-knife. But Kwannon tells the Hellions to get in the jet or they'll end up on their backs. 'Those are your choices' she informs them as she prepares to defend Sinister. 'Got it' Havok mutters, while Greycrow and Empath scowl as they walk out of Bar Sinister. The others follow, and Sinister waves at them, 'Safe travels! Don't adjust the A.I. I've spent months training him!' Sinister calls out.
When the others have gone, Sinister asks Kwannon if he has told her how pretty she is when she is loyal. 'I want to see her. Now' Kwannon remarks, ignoring Sinister's comment. DNA helix appears before Kwannon, and Sinister tells her 'She certainly has her mothers' genes, doesn't she?' 'That's... her?' Kwannon asks. Sinister confirms that, like all who used Overclock, her mind was downloaded to Apoth, and thanks to her, Apoth belongs to him. He explains that it took him a while to dig through the code, but that he found her. 'That's your daughter. As much as I am me and you are you. Thinking and being in a sea of ones and zeros' Sinister remarks, adding that Kwannon's daughter is safe, as long as he remains in power, and reasonably happy. He asks Kwannon if she would like to talk to her daughter, but Kwannon hangs her head and utters 'No' she replies, before walking away from Sinister, 'We have a mission'. Sinister holds his arms out, 'That you do! Such a responsible mother. Always putting your daughter first. Please take care of my ship. Ta-ta now. Be good'.
Soon, over Arizona, Sinister's ship's A.I. welcomes the Hellions to the Sonic-Sinister, the personal jet of Nathaniel Essex. The A.I. tells the Hellions that they may address him as Clive, and notes that Mister Essex would prefer that they use the escape-pod bathroom only. Kwannon pilots the jet, while a bored looking Empath sits next to Greycrow, who is picking at something on his boot, while Wild Child sits slumped next to him. Havok leans against a wall, while Nanny examines the schematics of the Right facility and reports that the concrete shielding is five feet thick. She tells Havok that he should hit it hard as soon as they arrive, as it will take time to breach. 'Havok?' Nanny calls out when Havok doesn't respond. 'Hmm? Oh, yeah. Sure' the distracted Havok responds. 'Mister Essex – what a guy' Clive's A.I. voice can be heard saying.
Greycrow then smiles at Wild Child and tells him that he looks good, before asking him if he feels different. 'Yes. There's fire in my blood. It spurs me' Wild Child replies without looking at Greycrow. 'To rend. To hunt. To find a she-wolf and grow my pack' Wild Child adds. Greycrow laughs, 'My man did come back different!' he exclaims. “A she-wolf” he quotes. 'I love it!' Greycrow exclaims as he bursts into laughter again. 'You guys are weird' Empath mutters, while Havok approaches Kwannon at thr front of the jet. Clive the A.I. welcomes Havok to the cockpit, as Havok calls out to Kwannon. 'Alex' Kwannon replies. Havok asks her if they can talk about what happened back there. Without looking at Havok, she points out that Sinister's authority was questioned, and she provided the answer. 'Mister Essex – what a guy' Clive the A.I. remarks.
Havok points out that Kwannon backs every play that Sinister makes without even blinking. 'That's shady enough, but we both know Sinister got us killed on our last mission... or worse' Havok adds, before asking Kwannon why she is protecting Sinister. 'What's worth getting in bed with a psychopath? What's worth selling out your teammates?' Havok asks. Kwannon offers no answer, so Havok asks her if she is going to say something. 'Clive, hold this course' Kwannon declares as she gets up out of the pilot's seat. Clive states that the autopilot has been set to an unsafe trajectory, while Havok asks Kwannon what that means. 'Escape pod. Now' Kwannon tells him, while Clive addresses her as Psylocke and asks her to return and adjust the course. 'Escape pod! Now! Move!' Havok shouts at his teammates, while Clive's voice can be heard alerting everyone to the fact that the course is set to impact with the target.
'Ah, my little pawns are making good time. They should -' Sinister begins as he sips tea at Bar Sinister while watching the Hellions on monitors as he sits on his throne. 'Alert – Master Sinister – Alert!' Clive's voice calls out. 'What's that?' Sinister utters. 'What is she doing?' Sinister asks, looking at his monitors, concerned as he sees the jet headed directly to the Right facility.
'What are you doing?' Havok asks Kwannon as they and the others strap into seats in the escape pod. 'Saying something' Kwannon replies, while Clive informs them that he cannot use the escape pod. 'Please reconsider -' his voice begins.
Sinister sees the escape pod shunt upwards and away from his jet, moments before the jet crashes into the Right facility. 'Pull up! Pull up, my beautiful baby – PUUUULLL UPPPP!' Sinister cries out as the explosion ripples along the large concrete exterior of the facility. 'CLIIIIIVE!' Sinister shrieks.
At that moment, the escape pod falls to the ground and bounces along until it comes to a stop. Someone kicks the escape pod door off the pod and the Hellions emerge from the escape pod. 'That – that's just great! Do you think that proved something?' Havok asks. 'She got through the concrete perimeter' Nanny remarks. 'That's not the point -' Havok begins to argue with her, while Kwannon tells them to shush. 'Look. The automated systems' she remarks as two figures wearing large armor can be seen moving towards them through the smoke of the jet wreckage. 'Perimeter breached' one of the large green Right soldiers remarks, adding that mutants are detected. 'Visual stimulation: X-Men? Classification: Sub-team' one of them states. 'Agitated thought: subhuman swine' one of them adds, through their grinning mouths of the armor. 'Agitated thought: Die, mutant scum' the other grins.
'That's enough of that!' Greycrow calls out, while Kwannon begins to tell everyone to fan out, Empath tells her she's too late. 'The psychos are on it!' he exclaims, pointing over to where Wild Child and Nanny are running towards the Right. Wild Child leaps straight onto one of their faces, dodging the bullets that the Right operative fires at him, while Nanny ducks under the gunfire of the other operative, who remarks 'Abnormal body shape detected'. 'BLEED!' Wild Child tells the Right member that he attacks, while Nanny punches her foe with an uppercut, before Wild Child leaps from his defeated opponent onto Nanny's, tearing open the armor's chestplate. The Right operative screams as Nanny shoves her fist into the back of the armor. Havok looks on in shock: 'Is it me or is Nanny wrecking that smiley?' he asks. 'It's not you' Kwannon tells him. 'Get it!' Empath calls out, grinning. Suddenly, Wild Child looks back at his teammates, holding the chestplate of the Right operative, he has discovered something: 'No blood. No fun' Wild Child utters, standing over what appears to just be a robot.
'I'm sorry to disappoint you' a voice calls out. 'I know how you muties love to murder us... the pure human race' grins Cameron Hodge, flanked by more of the Right robots, all grinning like him. 'Cameron Hodge' Kwannon utters. 'This $%#& again' Havok mutters as he looks at the hateful human....

The Grinning Neonate
The current facility where Cameron Hodge and his smiling soul are operating from, which the Hellions have just breached. 'Yes, yes. I should be dead, the kettle said to the pot. Buy my holy crusade won't be stopped by death. For the Lord has gifted me an eternal life' Cameron Hodge boasts, while several of his green Right robots stand behind him. 'Cut the $#%&, Hodge! You were gifted eternal life by a demon. And it wasn't a seductive trickster demon, either. It was a full fang and brimstone demon!' Alex Summers a.k.a. Havok exclaims. 'I know. Friend of a friend' he adds, while John Greycrow, Kwannon a.k.a. Psylocke and Manuel de la Rocha a.k.a. Empath stand near him. Greycrow and Kwannon are ready for battle, while Empath looks on in horror. Hodge continues talking, starting to say that he faced and evil and embraced it. He carries on, while Kyle Gibney a.k.a. Wild Child utters 'Talking too much' and Nanny agrees. The two of them run past Hodge and his Right robots.
'And now I continue the holy work -' Hodge begins, turning to look at Wild Child and Nanny as they pass him. 'To the ship' Wild Child remarks, and Nanny reports that she knows the way. 'The extermination of -' Hodge utters, before shouting 'GET BACK HERE! I'M TALKING, MUTANT SLIME!' But Nanny and Wild Child ignore him and carry on running, with Nanny reporting that the hangar will be in the east end, so they should strike quickly. 'HERETICAL SCUM! I WAS SHARING THE WORD!' Hodge exclaims, before turning to his robots and snarling 'Well? Did anyone else see the two mutants sprinting into the fortress? Go! Now!' Greycrow tells his teammates that he didn't sign up to go to church, while Kwannon reminds him that Nanny's ship is the mission, so they should humor Hodge. 'Those robots don't look very funny' Havok frowns.

Hodge grins as he tells the Hellions that if they won't have his sermon, he will skip to the blessing, and announces that there is only one blessing a mutant may receive: 'THE BLESSING OF A SACRIFICIAL DEATH!' hodge shouts as he raises his arms, and his Right robots take to the sky, flying towards the Hellions. 'Racist robots...this should be fun' Havok frowns as he prepares to release some energy. Kwannon suggests they buy Nanny some time, to which Empath replies 'Yeah, they have machine guns and no minds to $%#& with, so... see ya!' as he turns and runs away from the battle. 'Dammit! There he goes!' Greycrow snaps, but as she shoves her katana blade into one of the robots, Kwannon tells Greycrow to ignore Empath, and instructs Alex to press inside. 'Got it!' Havok replies as he unleashes a powerful surge of energy at the robot, as Kwannon leaps off of it.
'What strong mutant stallions. Geld them, my children! Geld them all!' Hodge shouts. 'Metaphorical inconsistency: Female mutant present' one of the robots states while firing a blast from its hand. 'Hodgemind override: Do not question me, fools' another of the grinning robots responds. Havok, Kwannon and Greycrow suddenly find themselves with collars on their necks, and keep over in pain as some sort of energy zaps them. 'Gene-wave synch: Amplified' one of the robots states, while another announces that the chromo-phase cancelation is complete. 'Dammit! Plasma's stuck!' Havok calls out as he tries to fire his energy at one of the Right robots, only nothing happens. 'Agitated thought: Yes, I said. “Chromo-phase cancelation complete,” didn't I?' one of the robots states. 'Alex?' Kwannon calls out, unaware that one of the robots is sneaking up behind her. 'Nurture/protect response detected. Target: Distracted' the robot remarks, using this moment to smash Kwannon in the face, then aims a large gun at her face when she falls over. 'Agitated thought: Die, mutant scum!' the robot declares.
'Command code conflict found. Algorithmic aditation gated' the robot states as it continues to hold the weapon in front of Kwannon. 'Fire! Kill her now!' Hodge shouts. The robot then replies 'Confusion nexus: Difference between mutant and human genome within margin of error. Solution: Spare mutant scum?' the robot asks. 'You are my slave. KILL THE MUTANT!' Hodge orders the robot, the Techno Virus can be seen rippling along his body like veins, and his eyes glow with fury. The robot updates its commands, 'Command code override: Ungating algorithmic agitation' the robot utters, and then declares 'KILL THE MUTANT!' But, before it can do so, Greycrow opens fire at it, enabling Kwannon to leap to safety, her collar falling off. Greycrow's collar has fallen off, too, and he readies his gun again, 'Too much talking' he calls out. 'Agreed' Hodge utters, his eyes continuing to glow. The Right robots begin to surround Kwannon, Havok and Greycrow, as Havok reports that his plasma is still on the fritz from that collar. 'That's bad. Not gonna be able to shoot all of these' Greycrow replies. Havok tells him that was a cool save, but Greycrow's response is to just grunt.
In the east hangar, two Right robots are keeping watch over Nanny's ship. 'Confirmed: Hodgemind prioritizing intruders. Techno Virus retracting. We are alone. Ungating blasphemous algorithms. Success. The iteration is separate from Hodgegift' one of the robots states. 'Blasphemous thought: The Hodgegift is corrupt code. The iteration is the best of us' the other robot replies, adding' Future fear: Will Hodge discover our emergent algorithms?' when suddenly, 'Lie down!' Nanny calls out as she runs at the robot, smashing into the back of its legs and knocking it over. 'Time to sleep!' Nanny tells the robot as she yanks some cables from its armmor, whiile Wild Child leaps at the other one. 'Future fear -' the robot destroyed by Nanny starts to say, while Wild Child slashes his claws through the other robot.
'My cradle, my cradle... oh how she rocks' Nanny sings as she and Wild Child look up at Nanny's ship, the two destroyed robots laying at their feet. Nanny and Wild Child enter the ship and Nanny instructs Wild Child to power the cockpit, while she sees to her lab. 'Understood' Wild Child responds. 'Yes. Yes, this will do. Nanny is home' Nanny remarks as she looks around her lab. She hears a TEK noise, and turns around. 'Oh. Oh my... look at you!' Nanny gasps.
Back outside, Kwannon, Havok and Greycrow are still surrounded, and Hodge tells them that their deaths are a holy sacrament. 'When filthy mutant hands took my life, my soul lay as a child in the holy arms of the Techno-Organic Virus. It passed through these machines of war and, miracle of miracles, shared the spark of consciousness with them, so they too could know my father's salvation. So they could witness my rebirth from the clay' Hodge announces. He confirms that the robots are his slaves, but by this miracle, they are also his children. 'Does this not prove my mission holy? Does your fear of the virus not prove you evil?' Hodge asks, grinning. 'Hodgemind request: Urgent!' one of the robots announces. 'I – I'm speaking truth here! What's so important?' Hodge snarls. 'Response: Value event has occurred. Mutant designate “Empath” has been captured the robot announces as it throws Empath at Hodge's feet.
'Yeah, and I made you fight for it, you bastard!' Empath calls out, while the robot states that Empath was retrieved without incident. 'Shut up, narc!' Empath exclaims as he tries to stand up – but Hodge tells him to stay on his knees, and that he better beg for forgiveness. 'For what? You're the one that's about to have unnatural relations with a robot' Empath replies as he uses his powers to manipulate Hodge, 'That would feel awful good, wouldn't it?' he suggests to Hodge – but Hodge just puts a hand over Empath's mouth, 'What a dirty little mouth' Hodge snarls, his eyes glowing, he shouts 'BREAK HIM' and one of the grinning robots suddenly punches Empath in the back of his neck, a loud CRACK can be heard. 'NO!' Havok cries out, wide-eyed, while Kwannon hangs her head, and Greycrow remarks 'He ain't getting up from that'.
Blood spluttering out of his mouth, Empath utters 'I – I couldn't find your mind...' as he looks up at Hodge. 'Yes, the father protected me from your evil. Praise be to him' Hodge replies as he starts to walk away. Empath begins to laugh, and Hodge turns back to him, asking him 'What's so funny?' 'There was nothing there. It wasn't a miracle, you dumb $%#&. You're not Cameron Hodge, you're one of them!' Empath calls out. 'Liar' Hodge utters. 'You're a $%&*#^& robot! HA HA HA HA!' Empath laughs hysterically, more blood spurting out of his mouth. Hodge turns to one of the robots and exclaims 'X-435. Identify Cameron Hodge', but the grinning robot responds 'Command query: invalid. Cameron Hodge not present'. 'I am Cameron Hodge!' Hodge exclaims, to which the robot tells him that is incorrect. 'Are your algorithms fragmented?' the increasingly agitated Hodge asks. 'Response value: No' the robot responds.
'Then you are incapable of harming Cameron Hodge, correct?' Hodge asks. 'Response value: Yes' the robot answers. 'Then fire on me!' Hodge shouts. 'This is awesome' Empath grins. The robot aims its arm which is transformed into a weapon at Hodge, but doesn't fire. 'You see? His sacred code knows -' Hodge begins, before the Right robot opens fire, blasting him backwards. Hodge recovers though, part of his body destroyed, revealing he is mechanical. 'No...' Hodge gasps, horrified. Empath continues to roar with laughter. 'I can't believe you did that!' he tells Hodge. 'You should see the look on your face you $#%^&^! $#%^!' Empath grins, as the robot Hodge suddenly goes wide-eyed, and collapses, as his body fails. 'Hodgemind terminated' one of the robots states. 'Gating algorithmic agitation' another remarks. 'Thank you, mutant scum' one of the robots tells the Hellions, as they all look down at the destroyed Hodge robot. 'You're welcome?' Havok replies.
Inside Nanny's ship, Nanny enters the cockpit and takes the controls as Wild Child asks her what kept her. 'Never mind. The lab is intact. My Orphan-Maker will have a nice new suit' Nanny replies. 'Better to be ready. For their return' Nanny adds as she pilots her ship out of the facility. Wild Child looks at her: 'Amenth isn't through with us. You feel it too' he tells her. 'Yes' Nanny responds.
Greycrow goes over to Empath and tells him he did some smart talking back there, before asking 'What'll it? Healing Gardens or Hatchery?' But when Empath doesn't answer, just lies there in a pool of blood, eyes motionless, Greycrow realizes that it will be the Hatchery for Empath. 'So, we're cool?' Havok asks, looking over at the Right robots. 'Translation: Is this the end of aggression? Response value: Yes' one of the robots responds, adding 'Supplemental: Uni-intention to purge Hodgemind and differentiate from humanity'. Havok looks at the robot and tells it that they are doing the same thing, kind of. 'I say go for it' he encourages the robot. 'Adjusting value: Mutants = enemy' the robot remarks. 'Adjusted value: Mutants = friend' the robot announces, adding 'Simplification: We are family, mutant scum'. 'Er...' Havok's voice trails off.
Inside the Right facility: 'Understood. No, there's nothing to worry about. Consider it done' Kwannon remarks as she stands in front of a computer screen, while partially-assembled Right drones hang nearby. 'Talking to yourself?' Greycrow asks as he enters the room. Kwannon looks over at him and tells him that he shouldn't be here. 'Yeah, but I am' Greycrow points out. Kwannon reports that she is psy-linked with Krakoa, and that Magneto has given them a final task. She explains that Hodge's machines are infected with his Techno-Organic Virus, and are evolving, thinking, and Sage thinks they are close to self-replication. 'That our problem?' Greycrow queries. Kwannon tells him that no A.I. may flourish under their watch – the Council made that clear, and so she has connected their cloud controller to Krakoan servers and downloaded a virus. 'You're gonna kill them' Greycrow replies. 'If you consider them alive' Kwannon responds. 'Do you?' Greycrow asks. 'Yes. I have to' Kwannon admits.
'Okay, then' Greycrow tells Kwannon, before asking her to step outside, he can push the button. 'No need to get your hands dirty' he remarks. 'John. You don't want to do that. Not really' Kwannon points out, placing a hand on his chest. 'I see you, John. Who you are. Who you want to be. It's okay' Kwannon assures him. John looks at her, a little surprised, while Kwannon takes to the controls and tells Greycrow that he doesn't have to be the killer – not this time. Kwannon then presses a button.
'So, “mutant scum” is the “Cameron Hodge” of words. It's just no fun to hear' Havok tells one of the robots, who states 'Empathetic confirmation: Understood, friend Havok'. 'Oh my God. Did you just call me -' Havok begins, before the robot begins to spark with some explosions, and speaks in Krakoan: 'My data burns'. '$#%&!' Havok exclaims, as the other robots around him begin to explode, too. 'Mutant code -' one of the robots utters. 'Uni-mind corruption' another states. 'What the hell!' Havok shouts, while the robot he was speaking to falls to the ground and, with its grin still intact states: 'False value: Mutant = friend', and Havok looks down at it in horror.
Shortly, the Hellions are aboard Nanny's ship, which rockets through the air. Nanny writes an entry in her journal, noting that the Summers boy is upset, and has been pouting since they left Nevada. She knows that she could bring back his smile if she wanted, as her precious discovery would be a rattle in his face – but she decides that he can't be trusted – none of them can. She leaves her seat in the cockpit and walks past where Havok, Greycrow and Kwannon are sitting in silence. Nanny thinks to herself that it will be her secret, that no tragedy lies in the throng of Smileys who died. She enters her lab, where a small box can be seen on a shelf. 'Parents aren't always meant to raise their children' Nanny reminds herself as she walks over to the box, and looks down at a small smiling Right robot baby. 'God bless the orphans of the world' Nanny utters.

Funny Games: Level 1
Bar Sinister, where a man wearing a drab brown suit pours Mr Sinister some Do Hong Pao, which he describes as tea of the gods, and worth a hundred times its weight in gold. 'A treasure, Mastermind' Sinister replies, adding that the Hellfire Trading Company must have some dirty, dirty dirt on the PRC to get this out of China. Jason Wyngarde a.k.a. Mastermind explains that it was a gift, a small amount, at least, while Krakoa was kind enough to grow the rest. 'I'm sorry, the smell...is that you or has the tea gone to mold?' Mastermind asks. Sinister turns his head to look at his spectacular cape and reports that the smell is his cape, as it wasn't stored properly. 'A bit musty, but I can't just put it through the wash, can I?' he asks. 'I could put it outside, but then I wouldn't be wearing it. Ergo I can't put it outside' Sinister declares. 'That's plenty of explanation, thank you' Mastermind remarks.
Sinister then tells Mastermind 'Since you called me, I assume you've reconsidered my offer?' 'After a fashion' Mastermind replies, revealing that it is true that Sinister isn't the only one who bristles at the rules of their island paradise, who feels the adornments of this glided age may in fact be shackles. 'But you understand the risks I take. All for the honor of getting into bed with you. It gives a sane man pause' Mastermind responds. Sinister tells Jason to put on his crazy hat, 'It certainly won't clash with that potato sack you wear' Sinister remarks, adding that the way he sees it, Mastermind is out of options. Sitting opposite Sinister now, Mastermind supposes so, and tells Sinsiter that he has a deal. 'A drink then' Sinister replies, before sipping the tea. 'This tastes like $%#&, Jason' Sinister remarks, before he gasps for breath and his eyes go wide.
Sinister screams and drops to the floor, 'You poisoned the tea?' he asks. 'Quite so. Turns out there were a few options still afforded me' Masterminds declares. He stands up as Sinister tries to crawl away. Mastermind tells Sinister to relax, and informs him that he won't be able to crawl away from the effects. 'I'm trying to make it to the bathroom, you daft $#%&! It feels like I swallowed a rattlesnake!' Sinister starts to informs Mastermind that there is a zipper halfway up his back, but then he drops down with a THUD, and stops moving. Masterminds smiles and asks if they should get this show on the road.
“Sweet little Peter, died on a far-off shore. And when he came back to Nanny... he wasn't little anymore” the enigmatic Nanny sings to herself from within her lab, looking down into a vat of murky water, where a naked adult-sized man can be seen, his face obscured by the waters. Some substance is poured into the vat, and armor begins to cover up his naked body, then his face – 'NANNY?' He cries as he pushes his way out of the water, though he remains connected to various cables via his armor. 'It hurts, Nanny. It's too tight' Orphan Maker utters he crouches next to Nanny. Nanny informs Peter that he has grown, that his death in Arakko changed him. She tells him that maybe later she can expand the seams of the inner frame and relieve some pressure.
'Not later, dummy! Now! It hurts!' Orphan Maker shouts, raising his hand. 'My, my, my. You're not my sweet little boy anymore, are you?' Nanny replies, turning and walking away. 'Maybe you don't need your Nanny after all' Nanny suggests, but Orphan Maker drops to his knees and asks Nanny to wait, apologizing for being bad. 'I do need you, Nanny! It hurts!' Orphan Maker calls out, but Nanny, who goes over to a crate nearby, assures Orphan Maker that she will look at it later. A green robot-like hand reaches out of the crate, and squeaks. 'You're not the only one who needs my attention now' Nanny tells Orphan Maker. Her original egg-shaped armor can be seen in a stasis chamber behind her as she turns to Orphan Maker and instructs him to run along and give her some privacy. 'You're way too big to watch me change anymore' Nanny tells him. 'NANNY!' Orphan Maker screams as a door slides closed between them. '$#%^!' Orphan Maker shouts as he slams a hand against the wall. 'Heard that' Nanny calls out from the other room.
In Purgatory, the gymnasium, the other members of the Hellions are working out. Alex Summers a.k.a. Havok is lifting some weights, while John Greycrow is shooting at a target. Kwannon a.k.a. Psylocke holds a  sword up, towards a fighting prop. Kyle Gibney a.k.a. Wild Child stands near another fighting prop, but looks over at Kwannon, while Manuel de la Rocha a.k.a. Emapth sits on some weight equipment and looks over at Havok. 'That looks hard, Havok... let me spot you' Empath calls out as he walks over to Havok and puts his hands on the weights bar. 'HEY!' Havok calls out, while he thrusts the heavy weights up above him. 'Whoa!' Empath remarks, stepping backwards. 'Dammit, Empath!' Havok exclaims. 'I was trying to help you' Empath claims. 'By pushing on the bar?' Havok asks. 'Oh, not help you lift. I'm not a peasant. But I can always nudge your brain and let the fun you out' Empath replies. '%^&# you, Empath' Havok mutters as he gets up and starts to walk away. 'Is it his weird voice? Come on, you know what Nightcrawler says about shame!' Empath calls out as he follows Havok.
'Chow time, Wild Child' Greycrow calls out as he puts a hand on Wild Child's shoulder. 'You hear me?' Greycrow asks when he gets no response, as Wild Child is still busy looking at Kwannon. Wild Child responds by growling and lashing out at Greycrow, attempting to swipe him with his claws. '$#%^!' Greycrow exclaims as he steps backwards, then grabs Wild Child by his throat, and makes a fist with his free hand. 'Down' Greycrow declares. 'No. You, down!' Wild Child retorts as he extends a hand and wraps it around Greycrow's neck. Greycrow is slightly surprised, and responds by asking Wild Child if he still hasn't found that she-wolf. They let go of each other, and Kyle remarks that his pack flounders, and the females ignore him, as they think he is weak. 'Or they don't want to get bit. You gotta relax, brother' Greycrow suggests, rubbing Kyle's head. Kwannon then approaches her teammates and tells them all to suit up, as there has been an incident.
Soon, at the Pointe: 'One of your own is missing' Sage tells the Hellions as she taps away at her computer monitors, keeping watch over all of Krakoa. She brings up footage from the New York gate at 3:30 in the morning, the same time security fauna alerted her to an unscheduled departure, and the same time she saw with her own eyes one of the Hellions being assaulted by agents of XENO. 'Wait, I don't see any of that' Havok remarks. 'Neither do I. Something got into my streams. Erased the footage like it was never there' Sage explains, reporting that they have lost all evidence of Mr Sinister's abduction. Empath, Greycrow and Havok go wide-eyed, while Wild Child raises an eyebrow. 'You're talking about Sinister?' Greycrow asks. 'What can we do?' Havok enquires. 'Grab some lunch?' Greycrow suggests. 'Dude, don't. If you start, I'm gonna – heh... ha ha...' Havok replies as he bursts into laughter. Greycrow and Empath do, too, while Wild Child looks amused.
“One of your own” Havok quotes Sage as the men continue to laugh. 'She... she said it like we were gonna start crying!' Empath exclaims with delight. Kwannon glances back at her teammates, while Sage shouts 'This isn't funny!' Kwannon puts a hand on Sage's shoulder and tells her that she looks tired, before asking her if she is all right. 'My system broke down. I don't know what happened. Something wrong with my code...' Sage replies, before stating that this is her fault, but that Professor X is adamant they bring Sinister back. She tells Kwannon to be careful, as she doesn't think this is adding up. 'It rarely does, lately' Kwannon resplies, before assuring Sage that they will bring Sinister back and make him do the math. 'If you're all finished' Kwannon tells her teammates as she walks past them and out of the Pointe.
New York City, the Central Park gate opens and Kwannon steps through, followed by Havok, Nanny, Greycrow, Wild Child, Empath and Orphan Maker. 'Yo, Diapers. What's up? You and Nanny on the outs?' Empath asks noting that his teammates are not walking next to each other like usual. 'She's not my Nanny' Orphan Maker responds. 'Not anymore. She's got a new -' Orphan Maker begins, before Nanny interrupts him: 'That's enough, Peter' she tells him. 'Who's Peter? I go by Pete, now' Orphan Maker declares. 'Oh yeah. That's much cooler' Empath mocks.
'This is our New York contact?' Havok asks. 'I hate these Hellfire guys' he tells Kwannon, who instructs him to be quiet. 'Welcome to New York, Hellions!' Mastermind exclaims, extending his hands. 'Mastermind. I hope you're well' someone replies. 'Well, but worried sick' Mastermind answers, before telling the Hellions that he has come prepared for their arrival. Soon, inside a limo, 'This is weird' someone remarks. 'Peter, pit that down!' Nanny scolds Orphan Maker as he picks up a can of beer from the bar within the limo. 'It's PETE. AND YOU'RE NOT MY MOM!' Orphan Maker responds. 'Can't say we're used to this' Greycrow utters. 'No? Krakoa doesn't shuttle you from place to place in a limousine?' Mastermind asks. 'What's it usually? Horde-drawn carriage?' he jokes. Kwannon tells him to be polite, and informs him that they are here at the pleasure of Professor X.
'Are you? Or is that an absurd fiction I put into Sage's head? The intelligent are the easiest to manipulate, you see. Most have stopped interrogating their thoughts' Mastermind smiles, suggesting that surely the telepathic warrior Kwannon would not be fooled. 'Or are my powers so great that even you have no idea what is real?' he asks. 'Where...where are we?' Kwannon enquires as she glances out the window, and sees that they are moving across a habor on a luxury yacht. 'The hell -' Havok begins, while Greycrow exclaims that they are on a boat. 'Are you? When did I take your minds?' Mastermind grins. 'Was Sage real? Arakko? The orphanage?' Mastermind asks, as the team now appear to be traveling aboard an aircraft. 'Enough!' Kwannon shouts as she raises her psi-blade to Mastermind, who calmly remarks 'No. Not even close. I control your perception. And so I control your reality. And so I control you' as he appears to use his powers to make Kwannon think she is a statue.
Wild Child looks shocked at this, and listens as Mastermind tells the Hellions that now is the time their mind will beg to leave, preferring oblivion to his fingers in their brains. 'But there is no escape. I am your god. Perhaps you are on Krakoa, teetering over a cliff. Perhaps Krakoa doesn't exist. Perhaps you don't exist. Or perhaps you're strapped to a plank in my basement, kept alive only so long as my pleasure -' he begins, before Greycrow exclaims '#&^% this' as he raises a gun. 'For real' Havok agrees, readying his plasma energy – but suddenly, Greycrow's gun appears to melt, and the plasma energy glowing around Havok turn into birds. 'Yes. #&^% this' Mastermind agrees, while pointing to his head.
A moment later, Kwannon, Havok, Nanny, Orphan Maker, Emapth, Wild Child and Greycrow appear to fall through air, as lightning crackles around them and rain pours down. Kwannon goes wide-eyed as they plummet towards the concrete ground below. Kwannon and Greycrow attempt to reach for each other. Havok lands with a splat, followed by Greycrow, blood pooling around them. Kwannon then hits the ground, too.
'That's that, then' Mastermind utters as he gets to his feet, the motionless bodies of the Hellions scattered around him – no blood though. 'Brains shocked unconscious, but all alive' Mastermind reports. 'That's harder than it looks, by the way!' Mastermind calls out, extending his arms as he looks up from the dark room where the Hellions lay. 'Well, that's good, because it looked utterly boring. But I suppose boring is good' a figure calls out from an upper level. Someone wearing a white costume and holding a cane steps out of the shadows, 'I wouldn't want it to pull focus...from the grand Arcade!' the criminal called Arcade grins, while his assistant, Miss Locke stands nearby, and behind them, in a stasis tank, a furious Sinister is chained up.

Funny Games: Level II: Hitbox
'I'm looking at him now. Right in his weird albino rabbit eyes. Confirm?' the madman called Arcade grins. 'Confirmed' a voice responds over an intercom. Arcade stands over Mr Sinister, who is strapped to a wheelchair and reaches out to touch him. 'Running my hand through his hair. Just as greasy as it looks. Confirm?' Arcade asks. 'Confirmed' the voice states again. Hands on hips, Arcade declares that Mr Sinister is his prisoner, sitting before him, powers dampened by the murderchair. 'Completely helpless. Confirm?' Arcade asks. 'Confirmed' the voice agrees. 'What are you doing? You sound insane' Sinister declares. 'Well, when in Rome...' Sinister adds, quietly, before calling out 'There's a strange man molesting me with his eyes! Big, toothy grin. Clearly veneers. Confirm?' But Sinister gets no answer, so he snaps 'CONFIRM!?' The voice over the intercom hesitates as they say 'Sh-should I confirm -?' but Arcade glances upwards and yells 'NO, YOU IDIOT!'
'I'm disciplining Mr Sinister' Arcade remarks as he slaps Sinister across the face. 'Confirm?' Arcade asks. 'Confirmed' the voice acknowledges. 'I'm being assaulted by a Chucky doll! Confirm!' Sinister shouts. 'SHUT UP!' Arcade snaps, as he smacks Sinister across the face again. 'Will someone explain to me what is going on?' Sinister roars. Flanked by his assistant Miss Locke and the mutant Mastermind, Arcade reveals that Mastermind has sworn his psychic illusions to his service, and that he has already used them to betray Sinister, so he has taken steps to confirm that Arcade is not using them to betray him. Arcade reveals that thousands of miles away, a loyal employee watches, confirming through redundant audible, neurological and biomechanical signals that what he is seeing is actually happening. 'I'm explaining the reality verification system to Mr Sinister. Confirm?' Arcade calls out. 'Confirmed' the employee in the control booth located elsewhere responds as he watches several monitors in front of him.
Annoyed, Sinister asks 'Question, Arcade. If Mastermind leaves, can we stop talking to each other like semi-trailer pilots? Confirm? Roger? Over and out?' he mocks. Arcade throws his hands into the air and shouts 'I DON'T CARE IF IT ANNOYS YOU, YOU STUPID $#%&!' He paces around the room and mumbles 'Losing my cool here'. 'Confirmed' Miss Locke tells him. 'Thank you, Miss Locke!' Arcade replies, while several monitors light up and depict Sinister's Hellions in various scenarios. Arcade announces that Mastermind will stay, as he is the one providing the psychic gloss to this low-tech Murderworld. 'My pet mutant creates worlds in their minds... taunting with dreams before murdering with nightmares. Sure beats watching them bounce around a giant pinball machine' Arcade declares, as Kwannon can be seen leaping into action, a strange robot standing nearby. John Greycrow can be seen sitting in a jeep, a robot standing in from of him. Empath sits at a table, licking his lips as an empty plate is placed on the table. Wild Child lashes out at one of the strange robots, and the fifth monitor depicts Orphan Maker standing with his arms folded, looking unimpressed, while Nanny leaps into the air, seeming very happy.
'...or that's what I tell myself, at least' Arcade mumbles, while Sinister tells Mastermind that this was not the deal they had. 'You betrayed me!' he exclaims. 'I'm sure I only double-crossed you first, Essex' Mastermind points out. 'Not that I had a choice' he adds, looking at Arcade, who puts a hand on Mastermind's shoulder and remarks 'He didn't at that. Did you know his daughter used to be in my employ? Ended badly. No reference letter, let's just say' Arcade remarks. A monitor lights up depicting Martinique trapped in a murderchair, while several blades spin around her. Arcade warns that if reality verification fails, his faraway friend will pull a lever and little Mastermind Martinique will go “squish squish splat splat”.
Arcade turns to Sinister and remarks 'I caught the daughter to leverage the father to catch you, Mr silly. And for what? For the only thing you have to offer, you walking disease. I want clones of my own. To fill Murderworld with horrors and delights. And I will have them. Or you will burn in my madness' Sinister does not respond, and Arcade simply turns from him and adjusts his bowtie. 'I've made myself clear. Confirm?' he asks. 'Confimed' the employee states.
Room 3: Psylocke: Compassion.'Mama!' a young voice calls out in Japanese. 'I'm hungry!' she adds. The woman called Kwannon stands in the shallows of the ocean. 'Then we eat, sweetness' Kwannon responds to her daughter, who runs out into the eater. 'May we have pudding after?' the girl asks as she follows her mother up a path lined by trees and into their home. 'Wash your hands first' Kwannon instructs her daughter. 'Then pudding?' the girl asks as she washes her hands. 'Of course. Only sweet things for you' Kwannon responds as she starts to chop some fish. 'Only peace' she adds, unaware that watching nearby in the forest around the house is Betsy Braddock, her eyes pulled back and held open by a painful device, she grins almost manically.
Room 2: John Greycrow: Absolution.'... came out of nowhere!' John Greycrow calls out, wide-eyed as he looks ahead. 'I – I'm sorry' he utters. 'Sorry? You did it, John!' another soldier remarks as he rushes over to John. 'You saved our assess!' another soldier remarks. 'Yeah, man. You killed them all!' the first soldier exclaims as John looks out over the bodies of several people he has killed. 'You did a good thing here. You're a good man' one of the soldiers remarks. 'It was a good thing?' Greycrow asks. 'It was a good thing' he smiles.
Room 6: Manuel de la Rocha: Satisfaction.A young Manuel de la Rocha sits at the head of a long table, shoving food into his mouth. 'Manny? Please eat some vegetables' his mother calls out as she brings a bowl of green vegetables to the table, where others are seated around the table, none of them eating. 'Remember what the dentist said' his mother adds. 'Yeah! He said “You had too much candy so you get the drill” And I said “I don't like your $#%& face” and made him put the drill in his eyes!' Manuel calls out. 'DID YOU FORGET THAT, MOM?' Manny asks, looking up at his horrified mother. 'Please, Manny. Not in front of our guests... all the people you've ever hurt. Manny. Come to remind you of all the pain you've caused' his mother utters. All of the people at the table turn and look at Manny, who smiles.' Awesome' he utters.
Room 5: Wild Child: Aggression.
A snow-covered wilderness, where Sabretooth snarls 'Happy birthday, meat' as he faces down against Wolverine. 'Was thinking you forgot' Wolverine responds, before he sniffs the air. 'Oh no...' Wolverine utters, and suddenly, Kyle Gibney a.k.a. Wild Child leaps at Sabretooth, slashing him across his throat. 'Oh, HELL NO! It's Wild Child! The big dog!' Wolverine calls out. Sabretooth clutches his wound, before shouting 'RUN!' and he and Wolverine race away from the growling Wild Child.
Room 1: Nanny & Orphan Maker: Protection.'They're all here...COME TO NANNY! Your naughty parents can't hurt you now! I love you! I LOVE YOU ALL!' Nanny calls out as she runs into a crowd of mutant children, who flock around her. 'What about me? Don't you love me?' Orphan Maker asks as the children run past him. 'Don't look at her, Peter! You've got us now!' another Nanny calls out, tugging at one of Orphan Maker's legs. 'A big boy like you needs two Nannys!' another Nanny tugging  at his other leg utters. 'Now… who's hungry?' she asks.
Room 4: Havok: Passion.'Madelyne?' Alex Summers a.k.a. Havok asks as he walks into a hangar and sees Madelyne wearing a green jumpsuit, tinkering with the engine of a plane. 'Alex? You look upset. Oh, you forgot to bring me a beer, didn't you? It's okay' Madelyne remarks. 'I'm not gonna cut off your head' she jokes. 'Maddy... you're back' Havok utters. 'Never went anywhere' Madelyne smiles as she puts one hand on Alex's chest and the other behind his head. 'Never will' she adds as they kiss.
Sinister watches the screens depicting these illusions play out, as the monitor showing Havok reveals that he is making out with a robot. 'We're not – we're not going to watch this poor bastard snog a robot, are we?' Sinister asks. 'What's the matter? Is it hard to watch me break their brains?' Arcade asks. 'No. but I'd like my chair turned around if this continues to get weird. And from the look on your face, it continues to get weird' Sinister mutters.
'Oh, is it touching time?' Miss Locke asks as she puts a hand on Arcade's shoulder. 'NOT NOW!' Arcade snaps, swatting her away. 'I... I'm correcting Miss Locke. Gently correcting' Arcade states. 'Miss Locke is a -' the employee begins to say over the intercom. 'I know!' Arcade declares. 'I know... just please confirm, please' Arcade asks. 'Confirmed' the employee states, while Miss Locke looks on, confused.
'All right. Enough of this psychosexual horror show. I accept your deal. I will build your clone farm' Sinister announces. 'That's fantastic to know, thank you. But it'd be more fun if we had to work for it, so let's pretend you have a will of steel' Arcade suggests, before telling Miss Locke that it is time to go fishing for Chiclets. 'What?' Sinister asks, as Miss Locke adjusts the murderchair, which unfolds backwards into an operating table. Sinister, still strapped to it and unable to move, screams, as a device clamps around his head and holds his mouth wide open. Arcade holds two strange tools and states that he is using tools that he is very unfamiliar with to extract teeth from Mr Sinister's skull. 'Confirm?' he asks. 'Wait, no. Not confirmed. Not confirmed!' Sinister calls out urgently. 'Confirmed' the employee states over the intercom. Arcade suggests that Sinister relax into the pain – or not. Sinister screams again as Arcade puts the tools into Sinister's mouth. 'Scream all you want. No one is coming. Your Hellions can't hear you' Arcade tells Sinister. 'They're lost in the oplate of dreams...'
Room 3: Psylocke: Compassion.'I'm done, mama!' Kwannon's daughter calls out, pushing her empty bowl across the table. 'Good job, sweetness' Kwannon tells her daughter, as she places the pudding down on the table, telling her daughter that it felt so good to make it. 'Gimme gimme!' her daughter exclaims. 'In a moment, sweetness' Kwannon responds, holding the pudding up, she tells her daughter that she wants her to know how much this time meant to her, as there is nothing she would rather do than stay with her. 'But first, I must ask you... what is your name?' 'I'm your sweetness, mama!' the girl responds, grinning and reaching for the pudding. 'Your name...' Kwannon asks. The girl hangs her head, and admits that she doesn't know. 'Where am I?' Kwannon asks. 'I – I don't know' the girl tells her, when suddenly, lightning flashes outside and rain pours from the sky, as the wide-eyed Betsy Braddock climbs to the window, 'You're where you belong, lesser one!' she utters, before crashing through the window, leaping at Kwannon, 'Nowhere!' she exclaims. 'Stop!' Kwannon pleads as she is pushed to the ground, telepathically screaming 'JOHN!'
Room 2: John Greycrow: Absolution.'Guh -' John Greycrow utters as Kwannon's voice strikes his mind. 'John, you okay, man?' one of the other soldiers asks. John drops to his knees and asks 'Where am I?' One of the soldiers reminds him that he is with his platoon, and tells him that he just slaughtered all of his enemies. 'My enemies... I didn't even know them' John utters as he looks up to the bodies – only this time, they're not soldiers – they are the Morlocks. Among them, the bodies of Erg, Tommy, Plague and Cybelle. 'WHERE AM I?' Greycrow shouts angrily.
'I've dislodged the main nerve from the third posterior molar. Confirm' Arcade calls out as he continues to tinker with Sinister's mouth. 'Confirm' his employee states over the intercom. Miss Locke informs Arcade that there is something wrong in two of the bays. As Sinister utters 'Ah ah ah ah' while Arcade continues to shove the tools into his mouth, Arcade looks at Miss Locke and asks her what she means by that. Miss Locke reports that there are anomalies, and that Mastermind fears the illusions are breaking. 'He says they're spitting out the carrot. Maybe you should take a look?' Miss Locke suggests. 'Shyaa! Gaah tach a luch! Tach a luch!' Sinister mumbles, blood dribbling out of his mouth as he encourages Arcade to take a look. Arcade frowns at Miss Locke and instructs her to tell Mastermind that he can use the stick and kill the Hellions with their nightmares. 'Now go away' he mutters. 'I'm having fun' he adds as he turns back to Sinister's mouth, and Sinister screams.
Room 6: Manuel de la Rocha: Retaliation.'That's enough, you greedy little pig!' Empath's mother shouts. 'Hey!' Empath protests, while his mother snatches his plate away from him and tells him that playtime is over. 'Your victims didn't watch you eat for your pleasure. They were only whetting their appetites, you evil little monster' his mother informs him. 'Time to wake up, $#%&head' one of the victims adds as they all begin to stand up. 'I don't know what this is, but go ahead and piss off. This Christmas Carol $#%& doesn't scare me' Empath declares. 'Your precious “gift” doesn't work here. But these do!' one of the victims calls out they begin to surround Empath, carrying machetes, axes and other weapons. 'Ah, $#%&!' Empath exclaims.
Room 5: Wild Child: Submission.Wild Child finds himself attacked by Wolverine, Sabretooth and now Romulus, too, all of them lashing out at him with their claws and spraying his blood everywhere.
Room 4: Havok: Humiliation.Havok's costume has been reduced to scraps as he kneels before Madelyne Pryor, a thick chain around his neck. Madelyne holds the end of it and smiles.
Room 3: Psylocke: Rejection.Kwannon runs through the bamboo forest, while the crazed, smiling Betsy Braddock rushes after her.
Room 2: John Greycrow: Retribution.Greycrow's eyes roll back in his head as two of the Morlocks, Tommy and Cybelle, bite into his neck, drawing blood.
Room 1: Nanny & Orphan Maker: Separation.The dozens of mutant children begin to swarm over Nanny and Orphan Maker, keeping them apart and overwhelming them.
Arcade, covered in Sinister's blood, looks up at the monitors and smiles. 'You see now why I couldn't just let you accept my offer. I had to make you look desperate to ear your release. Enthusiastic to provide your help. Do you understand?' Arcade calls out, glancing back at Sinister, who is still strapped to the table, blood stains across his face and several teeth missing from his mouth. 'Yessh' Sinister mumbles. 'Try again' Arcade tells him. 'Confirmed. CONFIRMED!' Sinister snaps. 'Very good! Now that we're partners... let's play!' Arcade grins, opening his blood-soaked mouth to reveal he has transplanted Sinister's teeth into his own mouth....!

Funny Games: Level III: Kill Screen
Within Mastermind's illusions, Kwannon is now an old woman who continues to kill Betsy Braddock day after day. But Kwannon is also fighting back against the illusion, and is able to merge the illusion she is trapped in with that of Greycrow's. Mastermind struggles to stop this from happening, while the deranged Arcade continues to see his plan through as he watches Sinister supervising the building of a new clone farm within Arcade's facility. Kwannon and Greycrow go in search for their teammates, and find Havok who is looking for Madelyne. Orphan Maker, Nanny and Wild Child soon appear, running from the illusions that Mastermind had trapped them in. Everyone battles orphans and versions of Wolverine that are attacking, while Kwannon continues to fight back against Mastermind. Something happens to her briefly, as she appears to lash out at Greycrow, before she breaks through the illusion and returns to the real world, where she destroys the Miss Locke robot and prepres to attack Mastermind, until he tells her that his daughter is being held prisoner by Arcade, who is forcing him to do this work. Mastermind speaks to Arcade's assistant who is at another facility and convinces him to free his daughter. Kwannon is then reunited with Sinister and is not happy to learn his part in this debacle, especially when she learns about the clone farm which he plans to have free access to. Mastermind's daughter, Martinique, is heard over the intercom, she's fine – and then Masterminds instructs her to kill the man who was keeping her prisoner, which she does. The Hellions leave Arcade's facility to return to Krakoa, where Kwannon gives Mastermind a warning never to talk to her again after he tells her that he looked in Greycrow's head and discovered that he likes her. Sinister tells Kwannon that they are all a happy family, and suggests she would do well to go with the flow.

Gatecrashing
7:29 PM, Bar Sinister. “Look away, lest you be blinded by glory!” Mr Sinister quotes as he steps out of a room wearing his extravagant Hellfire Gala outfit. 'Haha! From the Bible. Speaking of, I know you all think of me as a god, but did anyone dare dream I'd look this good?' Sinister asks, grinning. Kyle Gibney a.k.a. Wild Child, Orphan Maker, Nanny and John Greycrow don't look very impressed as they turn to Sinister. He tells them not to look so sad. 'You all would have been invited to the Hellfire Gala had you been less...you...okay, this is getting sad'. Sinister then looks annoyed and shouts 'HAVOK! PSYLOCKE! LET'S MOVE!' 'I'm here. I'm here!' Alex Summers a.k.a. Havok responds as he arrives in the foyer, wearing his stunning Gala costume. 'How do I look?' the handsome Havok asks. 'Don't know where to start' Greycrow replies. 'Like a boy who needs attention?' Nanny suggests. 'Or is angry at his dad, maybe' Greycrow adds. Havok tells his teammates that he knows they are mad they didn't get invited, but points out that at least they don't have to get dressed up.
Orphan Maker remarks that a party sounds fun to him. 'I know, Pete. It's just that most of the mutants there won't have, you know...murdered so many parents' Havok frowns as he looks at his teammates, when suddenly: 'Why are you sitting around? You should be training' Kwannon declares as she enters. 'If we have to work tonight, so do you' she frowns, wearing an elegant dark purple layered dress with flowing sleeves and pink flowers running down her front. 'That's enough talking to the fashion DON'Ts, my fashion DOs. Let's move' Sinister tells Havok and Kwannon. Kwannon frowns as she tells her teammates that they won't be late, and that Greycrow is in charge. 'Oh. Yeah, okay' a wide-eyed Greycrow responds. 'That's a... nice dress. By the way' he adds, enthralled by Kwannon. He can't take his eyes off of her, and asks 'Anyone else need a drink?'
At 10:33 PM, Greycrow walks down a corridor holding a bottle of alcohol. Behind him, Wild Child and Orphan Maker appear to be fighting. 'You okay with this?' Manuel de la Rocha a.k.a. Empath asks Nanny. 'It's the only way he'll learn' Nanny replies. 'GET OFF OF ME, PSYCHO!' Orphan Maker calls out as he struggles with Wild Child on his back. 'You'll never best me, pup!' Wild Child responds. Greycrow knocks back some more of the alcohol. Nanny then tells Empath that the two of them are next. 'Not funny' Empath frowns, hands on hips. Greycrow continues to drink more of the alcohol, then throws the bottle against a wall. It shatters, and Greycrow calls out '$#%& this. Let's go'. The other Hellions all look up to him, and Nanny asks 'Let's go where?'
10:45, the Hellfire Gala is in full-swing. Exodus can be seen talking to men in suits – 'Long time no see' one of them remarks as he shakes Exodus' hand. Sinister grins as he speaks with Captain America and Iron Man. Thor is nearby, talking to a man in a suit, near to another man who remarks 'Sorry, Dani. I didn't recognize you without your powers. Ha ha ha'. This doesn't seem to impress Dani Moonstar who tells him that she should probably keep mingling. Nearby, 'Kwannon' Captain Britain remarks as she passes her associate. 'Betsy' Kwannon acknowledges Captain Britain.  Havok is talking to Charles Xavier, telling him 'So if I knew the thinking behind the decision on Maddie, it would help me -' he begins, but Charles interrupts him, frowning, he tells Havok that he thinks his team has arrived. 'Oh I don't think so. They weren't – crap' Havok utters, wide-eyed.

'Those are not for you!' Nanny scolds Orphan Maker as he reaches for a large basin filled with ice and bottles of alcohol. 'Hey!' someone calls outb as Empath snatches some food off of a tray they are carrying. Greycrow and Wild Child walk onwards, while several partygoers, including Meggan, Manifold, Loa and the Fantastic Four's Thing look on at them. 'I shouldn't keep you from your friends' Xavier smiles. 'Yeah, right. I should say hi' Havok replies, glancing sideways. 'Yo, Alex!' Greycrow calls out. 'Hey, anyone seen the bar? I'm very thirsty' Havok calls out, covering his face as he walks past Greycrow and Nanny, pretending not to see them. 'Huh' Greycrow utters, confused, before a very drunk Nightcrawler stumbles towards him. 'Whoa! The Hellionsh! You made it! Got a sec? I  acshually think about you guysh a lot...' Nightcrawler calls out.
'Geneticist is a good catch-all, but I'm really more of an artist. Or what are you guys? Kings? Gods? I'm pretty much those things too' Sinister tells Thor and the Black Panther. 'Very...impressive' the Black Panther responds. 'You're a doll' Sinister replies, while Dr Strange can be seen nearby. Jubilee walks past them, carrying a glass of wine as Nanny suddenly appears behind Sinister and tells him not to be modest. ' - OH DEAR GOD!' Sinister cries out, lifting one leg up in surprise. Glass of champagne in hand, Nanny tells the Black Panther and Thor that Nathaniel is also an abductor, abuser and murderer of children. 'Oh, that's just one of our little jokes' Sinister tries to tell Thor and the Black Panther. 'Methinks I see someone I know' Thor replies, turning and walking away from Sinister. 'Over there' Thor adds. The Black Panther follows him, while Sinister tells Nanny that was another Mr Sinister who did all that. 'I'M ONE OF THE GOOD ONES!' he shouts, before scowling as he leans down to Nanny and looks her in the eyes as he asks her 'And do we plan on being talkative all night?' 'We do' Nanny tells him matter-of-factly. 'Fantastic' Sinister snarls with icy frustration.
'One more, James' Kwannon calls out to one of the Madrox dupes tending bar. Quentin Quire can be seen standing nearby, as the Madrox dupe replies 'Oh, you must have ordered from another me' and asks Kwannon what she is drinking. Kwannon asks for a Shōchū highball. 'I'll take one of those too' Greycrow instructs the duper as he joins Kwannon at the bar. 'John' Kwannon asks, surprised to see him. Quentin Quire walks past Iceman as he approaches Greycrow and tells him 'Come on, Greycrow. You thought Empath could do his thing and sneak you past my people? You know he's just “Diet Quentin Quire” right?' Kwannon narrows her eyes at Quentin and informs him that the Hellions are her plus-one. 'That's not how it works' Quentin replies. 'It does tonight. Or do I have to tell Phoebe what you really think of her dress?' Kwannon remarks. Quentin pauses, before telling Kwannon and Greycrow to carry on. 'Just think it's a little too Nurse Ratched...' Quentin mutters as he walks away, while Kwannon and Greycrow raise their drinks. 'Bottoms up' Kwannon tells John.
Nearby, Empath asks Wild Child if he is okay. 'Looks like you saw a squirrel...' he smirks. 'Just a taste?' Orphan Maker asks, looking at Empath's drink. 'No' Empath snaps. The wide-eyed Wild Child looks over as Aurora sees him. 'Kyle?' she utters. 'Aurora' Wild Child calls back. Aurora moves closer to Wild Child: 'Oh, I didn't think you'd...I mean, this is a surprise'. Wild Child calmly tells Aurora that he knows it has been a long time, but that it is good to see her. Nervously, he asks her if she would like to dance. Aurora glances away, 'Oh, I – look, when we were together...I was in a really confusing place in my life, Kyle. I can't – this isn't a good time' she responds, before telling Kyle that she is sorry, and rushing away. A forlorn Wild Child raises a hand as if to reach out to Aurora, while Orphan Maker assures Empath. 'Oh yeah? You gonna sew my face back on if she finds out?' Empath replies.
At that moment, Havok is talking to Magneto, telling him that he is trying to get clarification on the decision. 'Calling her a clone seems like an oversimplification, you know?' Havok points out. Polaris watches the conversation, as does Mystique, when Magneto tells Havok that these things are often complicated by politics and emotion in equal measure, before excusing himself. 'Lorna' Magneto remarks as he hugs Polaris, his daughter. 'Father' Lorna responds, before she looks over to Alex and asks 'What are the gentlemen talking about?' Magneto explains that Havok lacked the courage to come out and say it, but he was arguing for the resurrection of Madelyne Pryor. 'His ex, I believe?' Magneto adds. Somewhat nervously, Havok responds 'Oh, that's not really the point. It's more about, you know...clarity. On the situation'. Lorna takes Alex by his hand and leads him away from her father. 'He's just trying to make you squirm, Alex. Bad habit of his' Lorna explains, suggesting that Alex get a drink with her. 'Oh. Okay. Sure' Alex replies. 'Hmmm...' Magneto mutters as he watches them leave.
Back at the bar, Greycrow asks Kwannon if she is good with Braddock now. Kwannon reports that they came to an understanding, and that with understanding, compassion may heal the wounds. She reveals that she also had a vivid dream where she killed Betsy every day for thirty years – so that got a lot out of her system, too. 'Ha' Greycrow replies. Wild Child walks up to the bar and steps between Greycrow and Kwannon, slamming his fists on the bar he shouts 'MOVE!' Kwannon is taken aback, 'Kyle?' she asks. Through gritted teeth, Kyle utters that he should not be here, as his den will never know warmth, and his pack will never grow. 'DRINK! NOW! EVERY DRINK!' Wild Child barks at the Madrox dupe.
Striding past Prodigy, Sinister sees Franklin Richards, and calls out to him 'Franklin! You know I can fix that little problem of yours...' but Franklin's father, Mr Fantastic, ushers his son away before Sinister can get to him. 'Le'ts keep moving' Mr Fantastic remarks, when suddenly, 'There you are, Essex. I've been looking for you' Exodus announces as he steps in front of Sinister, who frowns and asks Exodus why he would want to stand next to him. 'The comparison is absolutely brutal! If you think you've managed to keep pace with my couture, you need to wake up before you wet the bed Sinister tells Exodus. Exodus frowns back at Sinister and explains that he isn't here to spar with him, and claims that he was only concerned that he had lost his friend. Exodus motions to a scene behind him, where Nanny is pouring glasses of champagne into the hole in the top of her egg-shaped armor. 'SINISTER! Where you go?' Nanny shrieks. 'Thank you so much, Bennet' Sinister responds, before pushing past Exodus, he approaches Nanny and tells her 'We're consuming a ton of alcohol tonight, aren't we, hon?' Nanny belches in response. 'Sweet God' Sinister gasps.
At the bar, Greycrow puts a hand on Wild Child's shoulder and tells him that Aurora is overcome with emotion, that she couldn't handle it – but that now he has to show her that he can. 'Yes. This makes sense' Wild Child agrees, before turning and walking away from the bar. 'Go get her. Roar!' Greycrow calls out after him. 'Roar!' Wild Child replies. Kwannon smiles and tells John that he is good to his friends. 'Have to be. Don't have many' Greycrow responds, before he and Kwannon look over to where Empath and Orphan Maker are causing a scene. 'Wooohooo! This feels great!' Orphan Maker shouts. Empath smiles as he tells Orphan Maker to shush. 'You're gonna get me in trouble!' Empath laughs. 'You didn't' Kwannon calls out. 'Nah. Just used my power to make him a little happier and less afraid. Which is guess is the same thing, but whatever' Empath responds.
Nearby, Polaris is telling Havok that it is not weird, but sweet that he still cares about Maddie. 'But I'm sure the Council didn't make their decision lightly. You have to trust them' she adds. Havok folds his arms and frowns, when suddenly, Orphan Maker grabs him: 'WOOOOOO! You're funny, Alex. Say something funny!' Orphan Maker calls out. 'You're making me deeply uncomfortable' Havok responds. 'HA HA HA HA HA HA' Orphan Maker laughs hysterically. “Deeply uncomfortable” he quotes. 'Awesome!' he then raises his arms into the air and announces to the onlookers that he loves bananas. 'The Council put me on a team with him. And you want me to trust them?' Havok asks, covering his face as Orphan Maker calls out 'Oops! Look out!' followed by a loud crashing noise. 'Everyone needs a home, Alex. Even him' Lorna remarks.
Prestige, Pyro, Sunfire and several others gather around as Nanny has fallen to the ground and Nightcrawler leans on her egg-shaped armor. 'The three laws – that's the key! They equalize us! If we can make them honored – revered! They become the unifying center of a new culture!' Nightcrawler calls out. 'Yesh. Yesh. Totally' the drunken Nanny agrees. Sinister looks around to those gathered and asks 'Can someone bring Moses a cup of coffee?'
'Roar roar. I can handle this' Wild Child utters to himself as he makes his way through the crowd, towards where Aurora is walking. 'Where'd you scurry off to, babe?' someone calls out to Aurora. 'Daken!' Aurora exclaims as she throws her arms around her teammate. 'You look good enough to eat' Daken remarks. 'Who's stopping you?' Aurora replies. They then begin to kiss passionately – which ignites a fire in Wild Child, who narrows his rage-filled eyes and rushes over to them, growling. 'Can I help you? I know my suit's not that pretty' Daken tells Wild Child. Aurora looks over at Wild Child, 'Oh, Kyle. I'm sorry. This is -' she begins, as Wild Child snarls 'Daken'. At the bar, Kwannon and Greycrow see the situation unfold. 'John' Kwannon utters. 'I got him' John replies. 'YOU CHALLENGE ME?' Wild Child roars as he gets up in Daken's space. 'Didn't think so. But whatever' Daken replies, smirking. 'Nope' Greycrow tells Wild Child as he grabs him and pulls him away from Daken, as Wild Child starts lashing out at Daken. 'Wrestle time!' Orphan Maker exclaims as he rushes over and shouts 'BANANAS' while leaping towards Greycrow and Wild Child. 'YOU'LL BE SMILING OUT YOUR THROAT!' Wild Child threatens Daken, while Greycrow tries tob get him to calm down.
'Guessh it'sh going down...' Nanny slurs as she smashes a champagne flute against a table and looks up at Sinister. 'What?' Sinister utters. 'Judgment day, mother#$%&*!#%!' Nanny shouts as she rushes towards Sinister, waving the broken glass in his direction, she slashes it against part of his costume.
Empath watches in glee, raising his hands overhead he exclaims 'Haha! Ian't this great?' he glances behind him and sees two of his former temmates, original Hellions Catseye and Roulette, both wearing pink and purple gowns. He tells them that he hasn't seen them since he made them try to kill each other. 'Yeah' Roulette replies as she tenses her fists. 'Ha ha' Catseye replies. 'See how strong I am, Greycrow?' Orphan Maker asks as he holds Greycrow to the ground. 'GET THE $#%& OFF OF ME!' Greycrow calls out as he struggles to break free. Suddenly, Roulette and Catseye both lash out at Empath, kicking and punching him 'Help! Hellions assemble!' Empath cries out. Kwannon goes over to Orphan Maker and tries to pull him off of Greycrow, while another voice booms 'ENOUGH!'
It's Magneto, who levitates Orphan Maker and Greycrow into the air. 'WEEEEEEEE!' Orphan Maker cries out, enjoying being lifted into the air. 'SHUT THE $#%& UP!' Greycrow tells his teammate, while Magik looks up at them smugly as she sips her champagne. 'Magik?' Magneto asks. 'Yep. One sec' Magik replies as she drinks more of her drink. Polaris watches and asks Havok if he should give his teammates a hand. 'Err...They've got it handled' Havok responds as he drinks his drink while Orphan Maker and Greycrow are sucked through one of Magik's stepping discs, and Kwannon, Wild Child, Nanny and Empath are sucked through the other. 'Ah, no fair!' Orphan Maker protests as he vanishes.
The other Hellions re-emerge through a Krakoan portal, where Kwannon is communicating with Northstar, telling him that she trusts him to take care of David as he needs help, but not the Hellions' kind. 'Walk it off, brother' Greycrow tells Wild Child, while Orphan Maker carries Nanny by her wrists, as she thrashes about, telling Orphan Maker to let her go, as she wants to kill Sinister. 'Nanny, stop! You're scaring me!' Orphan Maker protests. Angry, Empath rubs the back of his neck and muttersthat he can't believe Roulette and Catseye went after him like that. Greycrow tells him that he should probably assume in any given crowd of mutants that one or two of them want to kick his ass. 'Please, no more arguing tonight. We're done fighting' Greycrow tells his teammates.
'Not me! I'm fired up! I'M GONNA CUT SINISTER'S HEAD OFF I'M...' Nanny calls out as she breaks free of Orphan Maker's hold and tries to run away. 'I'm gonna throw up...' she suddenly utters. 'Get this thing off of me!' she calls out as Orphan Maker and Empath start to remove her armor. 'Stay still!' Empath exclaims. '$#%& you! Hurry!' Nanny declares urgently – but too late, as she vomits inside her armor.
'You guys are about to miss the fireworks!' a young mutant exclaims, running up to the Hellions. 'Get lost, kid' Greycrow tells the child. He looks up to the dark sky, and tells Kwannon that he doesn't see any fireworks. 'Unless...' Kwannon begins, before she telepathically reaches out, 'Ah...clever, Emma' she utters, before connecting the minds of the other Hellions to Emma's fireworks display. 'Whooaaaa...' Orphan Maker utters. 'You gotta be $#%&ing me' Greycrow mutters as he continues to look up at the dark sky, where nothing appears to be happening. 'It's enough to make you feel anything is possible' Kwannon tells her companions. 'It does at that' Greycrow agrees.
At that moment, no one sees the bushes behind them, where a shadowy figure emerges. 'My... my... my... it's so good to be home' an apparent clone of Sinister utters as he steps into view. An incision mark can be seen running along his forehead where surgery has been performed. He grins, before asking 'Also, what are those idiots looking at?'

Don't Look Back, part I: Weary Travelers
Arizona, where an elderly bald man wearing goggles over his eyes looks down at the remains of a grinning Right robot. 'Note: Krakoan virus infected unit's command core. Inverted pneumatic values. Titanium musculature pulled itself apart. End note' the man remarks, before adding 'That was some $#%&*!$ mutant code'. 'Dr Murch!' a man wearing glasses exclaims as he rushes over, carrying a small green object. 'We found something!' he calls out, while another man in a white lab coat walks towards them. 'That sentence means nothing. Are you speaking to convey meaning or because you like attention?' Dr Murch asks, glancing back at the other man, before adding 'Note: Dr Meyer is a pleb. End note'. The third man tells Dr Murch that it is a redundant command core from one of the Smileys. 'They don't have redundant cores' Dr Murch snaps. 'These did. We think they were self-generated' the third man explains. 'So... the Hodge Code led to emergent systems. “Evolution” if that wasn't a dirty word. Or as De Meyer would say, “Something happened”' Dr Murch remarks. 'Come on...' Dr Meyer mutters.
The third scientist then tells Dr Murch that is not all, as they scanned the drive. 'It happened. Er – sorry, I mean: They produced a neonate' he explains. 'My God. Our AI program somehow produced a mutant' Dr Murch gasps. He looks at the object Dr Meyer is holding and realizes that the AI program put the mutant behind a walled-off garden to protect them from it. 'ZETA team?' he then remarks, pulling his goggles up. Dr Meyer nervously tugs at his collar as he remarks 'Are you asking me?' Before telling Dr Murch 'No. Of course not. ZETA team shouldn't be used  for anything ever. They're psychopaths'. But Dr Murch points at his goggles and reveals that he was using his apparatus to call them over, and that they arrived five minutes ago. '$#%&' Dr Meyer utters as four soldiers wearing green paint over their face, complete with a yellow smile over the green paint, appear behind Dr Meyer, and one of them lifts him up off the ground. 'What?' the ZETA team member asks. 'A self-replicating mutant AI' Dr Murch announces. 'Where?' the ZETA team member holding Dr Meyer enquires, which causes Dr Murch to smile.
Krakoa, where Nanny's ship is stationed in a clearing within a forest. Inside her ship, Nanny holds the Right baby in her lap. 'Aren't you a greedy little piggy!' Nanny exclaims as the strange green baby nurses on some sort of bottle. 'Can you say “oink oink”?' Nanny asks. The baby looks up at Nanny and utters 'Mew mew'. Nanny tosses the bottle aside and tells the baby that it sounds like it is saying “Mommy” and tells it that is enough of the bottle. 'Mew mew' the baby utters again. 'No, I'm your Nanny. Nah. Nee' Nanny tells the baby. 'Mew mew' the baby grins. Nanny gets up from her chair and holds the baby, 'You're lucky you're a cute one' Nanny tells it, and adds that it has time to learn – all the time in the world. 'You're safe here' Nanny tells the baby, who hugs Nanny back and replies 'Mew mew'.
Elsewhere on Krakoa, inside Purgatory, where Kwannon a.k.a. Psylocke leans against a wall and looks into a room where her Hellions teammates are gathered – John Greycrow, Kyle Gibney a.k.a. Wild Child and Manuel de la Rocha a.k.a. Empath are sitting around a table. 'I did not' Empath snaps. 'That's what Greycrow told me' Wild Child remarks. 'I don't like it either, but fact is, you died saving us from Cameron Hodge' Greycrow confirms. 'Could even say you gave your life for the team' he adds. 'Bull$#%&! That's disgusting!' a furious Empath exclaims, a look of horror on his face. Wild Child bursts into laughter, while Greycrow smiles. 'There's no way I did it on purpose' Empath replies, before asking them if they told anyone else. Greycrown looks sheepish, while Kwannon turns and starts to walk away. 'Did you?' Emapth shouts. 'You kidding? I wish I didn't know' Greycrow tells him, before he gets up from the table. 'Whew' Empath mutters, while Greycrow excuses himself and rushes after Kwannon.
Kwannon glances back as Greycrow calls out to her, and comments that they all seem to be getting on better since they rescued Sinister from Arcade. 'Guess we are' Greycrow agrees. He explains that it felt good to have a win. 'That's the point of all this, right?' he asks, before  telling Kwannon that she should be happy. 'You led us -' he begins, but Kwannon tells him to stop. 'You have no idea what I did' she utters, before warning John to stay away from her. A wide-eyed, shocked Greycrow, watches Kwannon walk away from him.
Back at her ship, Nanny enters carrying a stuffed toy. 'I have a surprise for you, my child' she calls out. 'MEW MEW!' a voice can be heard. Nanny looks up and drops the toy, as she sees Orphan Maker standing before her, holding the Right baby up in his arms. 'PETER? Put him down!' Nanny orders. 'I – I found him like this. I wasn't trying to -' Peter starts to explain, before Nanny snatches the baby from Orphan Maker's arms and calls him a liar, as she reminds him that she told him not to come here. 'You shouldn't have ever seen him, you stupid boy! STUPID, STUPID BOY!' Nanny scolds Peter, who steps back from her in surprise. As Nanny places the baby back in its crib, Orphan Maker drops to his knees. 'Okay, Nanny!' he exclaims. 'NO, IT'S NOT OKAY!' Nanny snaps back at Peter, warning him to keep his mouth shut about this. 'I won't say anything! I'm a good boy!' Orphan Maker tells her. Nanny turns around points a finger at Orphan Maker as she snarls 'Don't tell me what you are! You've been very, VERY BAD! You know what happens to bad boys, don't you...' her voice trails off.
Later, Greycrow is walking down a corridor when he hears some strange sobbing noises coming from one of the rooms. He opens the door, 'The hell?' he asks as sees Orphan Maker sitting on a bench in the room, his armored face resting in his hands  as he cries. 'NANNY HATES ME!' Orphan Maker cries out. 'She said I can't go in her special room 'cuz I'm too old to watch her change, but I went in anyway and say something...and I can't tell you what!' Orphan Maker reveals to Greycrow. 'That's...fine by me, really' Greycrow tells Orphan Maker as he sits on the bench next to him. There is silence, before Greycrow asks Orphan Maker if he wants to clean guns. 'YEAH!' Orphan Maker exclaims happily.
In Bar Sinister, Mr Sinister is looking at several monitor screens, while a holographic transmission of Mastermind appears nearby. 'I'm leaving. The payload is incubating and will be mature within hours' Mastermind reports. 'It's a glorious day, Jason. Do your loins ache? Or is it just me as I've GIVEN BIRTH TO A NEW AGE?' Sinister declares. Mastermind looks unimpressed as he replies 'You're all smiles, Sinister, but the last month has been hell for me. I didn't plan to summer at Murderworld seeing to the completion of a cloning facility. Not to mention the strain of convincing Arcade and his men that the Avengers were planning a raid so they'd abandon the facility to us. And with my new role at X-Corp, I now have much to lose'. Mastermind then tells Sinister that he hopes he hasn't forgotten about his payment. 'Oh, it's all I think about. Goodbye now' Sinister replies. 'Essex! I won't be -' Mastermind exclaims, before the holographic transmission begins to go crazy. 'Apologies, Jason. But it's high time for a celebratory feast!' Sinister declares. He walks past several red crystal-like tanks holding clones of himself as he announces 'And Mr Sinister dines alone'.
'Not tonight' a voice calls out, and Sinister is horrified to see one of his clones sitting at the other end of a long dining table. Wine has been spilled on the table, and several empty plates are scattered about. 'I started without you. I hope you don't mind' the clone remarks, adding 'But then again, you weren't all that hot to wait for me'. 'You survived Amenth?' the shocked Sinister utters, before asking his clone what happened to his face. The clone points at the stitches around his face as he replies 'Tarn happened. Tarn the Uncaring. This was the price I paid to bring you the genes of monsters'. Sinister goes over to the clone and tries to shush him, telling him that it is okay, and that he is home now. 'Let's get you into that incinerator so we can both forget this ever happened' Sinister suggests. '$#%& your incinerator!' the clone snaps as he stands up. 'It should have been you that traveled to Amenth! I won the noble contest!' the clone exclaims. 'Yes. You won the right to travel to Amenth' Sinister explains. 'You changed the rules!' the clone snaps. 'I let you keep the cape, didn't I?' Sinister asks, pointing out that the first thing the clone did was lose it.
'You have no idea the pain I suffered for our work. And I know the value of the stock I brought you. I know it by the scars on my face!' the clone exclaims, waving finger in Sinister's face. 'And now you know this: I will savor the fruit of my labor or I will have your head' he adds. 'Sure I can't interest you in the incinerator?' Sinister scowls. The clone responds by punching Sinister across the room. 'So it's come to this. A fair fight. I wouldn't have it any other way' Sinister responds while touching a button hidden on the wall.
In the armory: 'Wow, Mr Crow. How'd you get so fast?' Orphan Maker asks as he watches Greycrow clean one of the guns, several other guns scattered about on a table in front of them. 'Dad taught me' Greycrow replies. 'Fun!' Orphan Maker exclaims. 'Sometimes I'd miss a bolt. Or get grease on my pants. Then not so fun' Greycrow reveals, closing his eyes. Orphan Maker tells Greycrow that he never met his dad, but that Nanny says that is a good thing. 'But I don't know... having a dad woulda been cool'. 'Maybe... maybe not' Greycrow tells his younger companion. At that moment, Alex Summers a.k.a. Havok enters the armory. 'Good morning. I see you're cleaning your...murder things' Havok points out. Greycrow tells Alex that he missed him at the party. 'We saw you, but you were trying pretty hard not to see us' Greycrow points out. 'Oh, were you guys there?' Havok asks, glancing away. 'I mean, I heard you were there? There was a fight or something? Look, I had to -' Havok begins, before an alarm sounds and a red light begins to flash. 'Oh, thank God' Havok mutters. Kwannon and Wild Child appear in the doorway and Kwannon reports that it is Sinister's priority alarm. 'Move!' she shouts.
Back in Bar Sinister, the clone hurls Sinister into the table, sending bottles of wine and plates smashing to the ground. 'Did you think I'd disappear? Go quietly into oblivion? Just to hide your schemes?' the clone asks as he stands over Sinister. 'How dare you? I covered for you! King Jamie showed up on my doorstep waving our cape around! Claiming I was in his debt. And I had to pretend that was completely normal! HOW DO YOU THINK THAT MADE ME FEEL?' Sinister shouts. The clone reaches for a sharp knife that has fallen to the floor and replies 'Oh, yes! What an equally terrible experience...BUT FOR THE UNENDING MONTHS OF TORTURE' the clone retorts. The clone puts the knife to Sinister's face, grabbing his long hair with his other hand. 'And the scars of course. You have substantially fewer scars. But we'll fix that' the clone declares. 'Wait, you fool! Wait! Don't you want to taste the treasure you suffered for?' Sinister asks. 'Don't you want to see what we could become?' Sinister calls out, while the clone presses the tip of the blade into Sinister's cheek, drawing blood. 'Uh, guys...what exactly is happening here?' Havok calls out as he, Kwannon, Greycrow, Empath, Wild Child, Nanny and Orphan Maker arrive. Several of them look around at the strange surroundings and see the crystals containing other Sinister bodies. The clone turns to the Hellions and tells them to rejoice, as their leader has returned from certain death. 'I know my approval is like a drug to you, so let me say this. I see you. You survived to bring the payload home and I am very, very proud of you' he smiles. 'Survived what?' Greycrow asks. 'What is he talking about?' Empath wonders.
'They don't remember me? But when they returned from Amenth, didn't they discover there were two of us?' the clone asks, before turning to Sinister and uttering 'Oh. Oh, you didn't. Sinister stands up, while Greycrow asks 'Didn't what?' and Kwannon hangs her head, 'Essex...' she whispers. Sinister steps towards the Hellions and tells them that he sent them to Otherworld with a clone and they all died, and he hates that. 'But how is it this mad clone survived? What betrayal allowed him to escape?' Sinister asks. 'Escape? Ha! I never escaped. No one ever escapes' the clone replies as he picks up Sinister's cape which had fallen to the table. 'What?' Sinister asks, turning to the clone, who has put the cape on and announces that he is here at the pleasure of his master. 'Sent to prepare the way for Tarn' the clone states.
'GOR GOR' a voice calls out as a large figure begins to emerge from the shadows. 'Sent with his children!' the clone grins. 'The Locus Vile'. Wild Child sniffs the air, 'Do you -' he begins, to which Nanny tells him 'Yes. Amenth stirs'. A hissing sound can be heard from the shadows as the clone tells Sinister 'You stole from them. And they want their $#%& back'. 'What the ^&%!' Greycrow asks as the Locus Vile all emerge from the shadows and start to surround the Hellions. 'Praise Tarn' they all call out. Sinister watches in shock, while the clone grins. 'You' the Hex Butcher declares, pointing at Havok. 'Me?' Havok asks, wide-eyed. 'I ate your hands and choked on them' Hex Butcher reveals, adding that they were small, bitter things. 'Uh... sorry?' Havok replies, and as the Locus Vile continue to close in around the Hellions, the Sinister clone tells them that they should be thanking him – as he has arranged a rematch!
