Frozen Moment
Madripoor
There’s a knock at the door to Robert Drake’s apartment and the skirt-wearing knocker is invited to come in. Once inside, Bobby can be seen partying it up with over a dozen scantily clad women, most of them hanging out with him in his king-sized bed. He takes one look at the figure that’s walking toward him and says it’s about time, that he ordered a ginger party girl over an hour ago.
The smile never leaves Drake’s face as he apologizes to the other women, begging their pardon for adding yet another girl to the mix. One girl giggles while another tenderly kisses him on the neck. He tells the redhead to hurry and get undressed, but he doesn’t look at her, therefore doesn’t notice as she reaches into her handbag and pulls out a gun.
The next thing AoA Iceman knows Deadpool, complete in drag, is straddling him with a gun in his face. “…me love you long time,” Deadpool jokes. The girls scatter, but Deadpool’s one-liner cost him the element of surprise. Iceman admits if Wade had pulled the trigger he’d be dead, but the gun is now iced and so is his fist. Bobby reaches back and punches Wade so hard with an iced fist he goes smashing through the window, many stories up from the ground.
Wolverine and AoA Nightcrawler are at the top of the roof and watch as Deadpool exits the apartment most painfully. Wolvie admits Wade’s way didn’t work so Nightcrawler says they try the plasma grenade’s way. He’s holding it gingerly in his hand. Logan reminds him he needs to be a few hundred feet away from pedestrians when he detonates. ‘Crawler tells him not to worry, then immediately teleports into Bobby’s room. He grabs onto Drake who manages to get out a “Kurt--?!” before being teleported away.
Otherworld
An outdoor funeral is being held for Jamie Braddock. Brian is leading the proceedings, reminding everyone why Jamie had to die, to prevent an atrocity he would one day commit in the future. He admits to those gathered that the irony is not lost on him. He then looks at his sister, Betsy, and adds, “Nor the means of his death.”
As Jamie’s coffin is lowered into the ground Brian tells him to rest, to stand proudly beside his mother and father, secure in knowing he died in the service of others. Fantomex, freshly bandaged all over his face, approaches him right after. “Brian? I’d like to--,” he starts, but Brian cuts him off. Gloat? he asks. He doesn’t stop there, assuming Fantomex wanted to throw it in his face what a hypocrite he is. “Fine. You were right,” Brian spits out through gritted teeth.
Brian shoves his finger in Fantomex’s face. He admits angrily that sometimes a child or family member needs to be killed to solve an ugly dilemma. He says preserving life is pointless, that only death gets the job done. “I see now. You win,” he yells.
His fit is over, but Brian still has a finger pointed at Fantomex’s face. Jean-Phillipe isn’t angry, instead he grasps that finger between his two hands and bends his head forward solemnly. He says he only came over to offer his condolences. He then leaves with Betsy, putting his hands on her shoulders.
Brian sees this and calls out to his sister. When she turns around he doesn’t continue. It might’ve been the sight of her with Fantomex or his thoughts turning to what she forced him to do, but whatever he was going to say doesn’t come out. Instead, he turns around with a “never mind” and stares at the coffin in the ground. Psylocke and Fantomex continue their walk from the grave site.
Madripoor
Nightcrawler and Iceman reappear way above the city. ‘Crawler activates the plasma grenade in his hand, but Bobby makes sure if he goes so does the elf, freezing their hands together. He tells Nightcrawler to disarm it, unless he plans on dying with him. He relents and disarms the grenade.
All the while, Nightcrawler keeps thinking about Drake and what they’ve been through together. It was Bobby who cared for him after Blob killed Linda, but his betrayal can’t be measured. He doesn’t think he’s killing Drake today because he was lost years ago and there’s nothing human left in him, just a frozen-hearted avatar who sold out his family.
As they continue to plummet a leaping Wolverine is heading straight for them, claws outstretched. He slices off Iceman’s arm near the wrist, freeing him from Nightcrawler. Iceman continues to fall, crashing through the skylight of another building, landing in the water fountain on the ground floor.
Nightcrawler teleports himself and Wolverine to the top of that building. Peering down through the smashed skylight Nightcrawler holds out the plasma grenade as if he’s going to drop it down. Wolverine reminds him of the civilians down there, but Nightcrawler says he’s going to teleport it into his stomach and bounce him around the city.
When he pushes the button to activate it Iceman smashes through the roof ot he building, now grown to gargantuan proportions. The grenade is knocked from Nightcrawler’s hand and begins its descent to the sidewalk below.
Using some sort of ice eye ray, Iceman freezes ‘Crawler before he can teleport away and disarm it. He coldly wonders how many people it will kill. It’s up to Wolverine to save them so he leaps over the side of the roof, following the path of the grenade. He catches it just before hitting the ground and it explodes underneath him a mere three feet from the sidewalk, smashing windows and tearing up the pavement underneath.
Cavern-X
Fantomex and Psylocke are back at X-Force headquarters. Ever since Psylocke rescued Fantomex he’s noticed something was off about her. He finally asks her what’s wrong. He says she didn’t show any remorse at her brother’s funeral. He asks what she gave that fiend, Krokwel, in exchange for his help.
“Remove your hand,” Psylocke yells when he places it on her shoulder, trying to get her to stop and talk to him. She answers him anyway, explaining she gave up her sorrow and her capacity to ever feel again. Betsy thanks God she did because after everything she’s gone through recently she thinks killing Jamie would have pushed her over the edge. She then turns about and leaves a shocked Fantomex standing there staring after her.
Madripoor
Dozens of regular sized Icemen come crawling and stalking, surrounding Nightcrawler. Iceman-prime talks of the futileness of his endeavor saying he can’t be killed, and his ally, Wolverine, won’t be much help either. He asks Kurt why he can’t just leave well enough alone and enjoy this new world, start a new life, and forget about the revenge.
Nightcrawler teleports down to the lobby where Iceman-prime is lying about, chillin’. Kurt looks him square in the eyes and says he wants to make sure Drake can’t enjoy any of it. He then grabs his former teammate and teleports him to the roof of a nearby building with two large smokestacks on top. Then, just as quickly, Nightcrawler teleports them both inside. Iceman asks what this is and Kurt, smashing his face into a nearby wall, says this is where he dies.
Iceman is being slowly dragged toward the furnace. He congratulates Nightcrawler on his choice of location. There’s no moisture in the air, rendering Drake pretty much powerless. Before getting tossed in, Iceman says he’s going about this the wrong way. Tossing his sword aside, Kurt agrees, saying they fight as friends, no powers, no weapons, a fight to the death.
With that, Kurt punches a kneeing Iceman in the jaw. Iceman recovers quickly and slide kicks Nightcrawler’s legs out from under him. He follows that up with a kick to Kurt’s face. Now on the ground, Iceman pounces on top of him, punching him.
All the while, Kurt thinks back to a time when he was sitting in the mansion with Drake, getting drunk and watching the world fall apart. He remembers Bobby kept making jokes as if the end of the world wasn’t happening, as if they were two friends watching a movie on a Friday night. He wants his friend back, he wants to make him joke, he wants to make this all feel less awful.
Getting back to it, Kurt digs his thumbs into Iceman’s eyes and then uses the momentum to flip Bobby over and smash his icy face into the floor. Iceman counters by rocking his elbow back into ‘Crawler’s chin. Then he’s back on top of the elf punching and punching. He tells Kurt he lost, that it’s ok, to just let go.
This baiting only serves to anger Nightcrawler and he flip kicks Iceman off of him. Drake’s face bashes into the wall of the furnace. The heat on the metal’s surface melts the side of his face, causing him great agony. He cries out in pain.
Nightcrawler slowly stalks over, obviously tired, his right eye swollen from the fight. He says he couldn’t go on living knowing he was still alive. He fears that more than death, Kurt claims. He then opens the furnace allowing the heat to wash over his old friend.
Iceman begs him not to, but Kurt isn’t listening. He says he would have burned the entire world down just to kill him. Bobby pleads for another shot, that he’ll change. Kurt agrees, cradling Iceman in his arms. “You’ll melt,” he responds.
Iceman’s last words are for seeking understanding. He says he just wanted to enjoy his life. “I hope you did,” Nightcrawler answers and then tosses Iceman inside. His screams only last for a few seconds until death takes him. “Shiro sends his regards,” Nightcrawler adds while watching his friend melt away.
Elsewhere in the city, Deadpool is helping a severely burnt and skinless Wolverine into an alley. Deadpool tells Logan he’s lucky he found him, but admits he only stopped because he thought he was some sweet, street BBQ shack. He says he almost took a bite out of him before he realized it was his little “snuggle cousin.” A weakened Wolverine says he never agreed to be called that.
Nightcrawler teleports in front of them, the wounds of the battle still fresh on his face. Deadpool asks if it’s done, and Nightcrawler says yes, that he killed his friend. Then he teleports the three of them away.
Cavern-X
Fantomex is in one of the nicer areas of their hideout, sitting in a curved chair having a video chat over the computer with Genesis. Genesis is saying how he’s having an ok time at school. He thinks Logan is a crank, but adds that Kitty is nice. He then asks after his parents.
“Uncle Cluster” says he’s been too busy going through a Led Zeppelin song’s worth of wizards and fairies to speak with his parents. When Genesis asks who Led Zeppelin is, Fantomex sighs and asks what they’re teaching him at his new school. He abruptly says he’ll tell his parents he’s doing well and then signs off.
It’s Psylocke that caught his eye and made him cut the conversation off so quickly. She’s on the lower level dressed in a purple bathrobe looking up at him. He descends the stairs and thanks her for coming. He wants to talk with her about what happened back in Otherworld.
However, Betsy doesn’t want to talk, or at least with words. She drops her bathrobe revealing her nakedness underneath. Fantomex is speechless. She then lifts his mask up and throws it off to the side. She pulls Jean-Phillipe’s face toward hers and kisses him passionately.

Final Execution – chapter one (1st story)
Evan Sabahnur aka Genesis sits outside on the grounds of the Jean Grey School, reading a book when another student, Quentin Quire, addresses him as “lips,” telling him he was having some trouble with his homework and was hoping Evan could help. He tosses a book at the confused Evan, who asks why he should know anything more than him. He looks at the book: Lectures on Evolution by Thomas Henry Huxley. Given the subject, Quentin replies, he figured Evan would be an expert.
They are unaware that Evan is being watched and identified as Apocalypse by Sabretooth…
Paris, France:
Deadpool watches a man about to enter a secret doorway. Quickly, Deadpool takes him out, as the door opens and takes his place, now looking like a handsome blond man.
He is welcomed in a high tech complex by a gorgeous redhead who addresses him as Mr. No-One. Where are the exactly? he asks, to be told he is in the White Sky Showroom. An undisclosed location, for obvious reasons. It was all in the brochure. She is sure, he remembers. She takes his bag.
Cavern-X:
Psylocke awakes from her night with Fantomex. She had nightmares like every night. Conversations with the dead. But she sold her sorrow and cannot mourn anymore. What’s left is rage.
Sneaking away? Fantomex asks. That ninja stealth does come in handy. Don’t take it personally, Betsy replies. This was selfish of her. Surprised, he asks what exactly happened here last night. A one night stand to satisfy her curiosity, she replies.
She doesn’t like him very much, does she? he asks. He is a living contrivance, she replies, a product always presenting the front of a very disaffected and roguish man of action. A hall of mirrors, with no end. There is no true “he” to have feelings for.
There is a him, he insists and he very much wants to be with her. It was something they both wanted to happen and it did. Last night he saw something, felt something!
She cuts him off. Not all misdirection requires mutant ability… Let’s leave it at that and agree it won’t ever happen again.
At the White Sky Showroom, the redhead leads Deadpool around, showing him a wide choice of assassins and spies intended for corporate espionage. He asks for her name and she assures him that, to ensure his privacy, she will self-destruct soon and needs no name. As he can see from the lovingly crafted models, they have a passion for assassination. Unique servants, to fit all his protection or murder needs.
And why is this better than hiring some remarkable and famous mercenary like… say Deadpool? he asks. They grow their assassins to the customer’s s specifications, is the reply, and can implement any memory imaginable. A traditional assassin is high risk; he might be bought by a higher offer. Imagine he wants to strike at the Roxxon Corporation. They’ll grow him assassins who believe Roxxon was behind the death of their families. That’s hard to compete with, he admits.
Now as for choosing his assassin’s skill sets… He has an idea! he interrupts. A cowboy and pirate king who has the power to crap through time! When will the doo doo land? Look out, caveman! Watch yourself, Napoleon! No one can save you, Brutus! Patiently, the woman informs him they cannot yet bend time.
They turn to three transparent cages which are empty. She explains that the Omega Clan has been purchased. Their most expensive models. Unlike the others, these were derived from the remains of the actual Omega Red.
A tentacle snares Deadpool form behind. Smirking, the redhead informs him they’ve been undergoing programming to grow a personal hatred towards their new targets. Addressing him as “Mr. Wilson,” she asks if he has guessed who these targets are. He and his friends, naturally. And the Omega Clan truly hate them, programmed to their client’s exact specifications.
Wolverine sits musing in Cavern X while the Age of Apocalypse Nightcrawler practices with his sword and complains about the quiet. Wade’s on a recon mission. Thinks he’s Robert Evans this week. He told him the spook he is tailing is a Hollywood financier.
Nightcrawler muses that back home Wolverine’d doppelganger is the plague of his world. But he is actually beginning to like Wolverine. He thinks he’ll stay a bit longer. Given what a surly son of a bitch he’s been, Logan replies, knowing he’s sticking around is such a relief. Lightens his heart up! If he was a cynical man, he might think Nightcrawler  was getting  him buttered up to help him kill another hometown refugee. Yes, Kurt agrees, the Blob.
How personal is it between them? Logan asks. Kurt flashes back to the image of a murdered woman in the Blob’s arms. No more than the rest of them, he claims calmly.
Deadpool’s emergency alert goes off. They localize it coming from a mile above the Pacific Ocean. Better gather the troops!
Psylocke apologizes. They are going to be one shy. She is quitting X-Force. Angrily, Wolverine insists they need her. And she needs to process her situation, she replies coolly. Warren, Jamie, overcoming the Death Seed… it’s all too much. Telepathically, she tells Logan alone she is dying inside. She can’t continue to kill. He insists what they do is necessary. They are murderers, she replies brutally. How can that be a necessity? She kisses him goodbye, as she tells him he’s given in to the worst part of himself and she won’t stay to see how far down he will let it take him.
Fantomex suddenly stands next to Wolverine. And where the hell is he going? Logan demands. No more Warren. No more money, he replies simply. No more him. Right, all of a sudden, Wolverine scoffs. Because of the money. Looking at the leaving Betsy, Fantomex agrees. He’s glad Logan understands.
So looks like someone is relieved he’s sticking around after all, Kurt gloats. Or did Deathlok leave his cell number?
Betsy visits the Jean Grey School and asks after Angel. Kitty Pryde tells her he’s been fine, all things considered. He’s been exhibiting so many different characteristics and abilities. But he’s not Warren anymore. He won’t remember her. Does she want to say ‘hi’ anyway? But Betsy has already stealthily left.
Kitty tells Beast what Betsy is going through breaks her heart. Yes, Logan and his clan of murderers should be given their utmost respect and sympathy, Beast mocks, but he understands. Warren is one of his oldest friends. But they must move forward. Chin up! If she’s down now their field trip is sure to raise her spirits. Not so surprisingly, the idea of a fieldtrip to Genosha is anything but.
Meanwhile, Wolverine and Nightcrawler are on their way to the White Sky Showroom. Nothing here but that cloud. They figure Wade’s inside. Kurt teleports them inside to find the redhead and a group of armed people are already expecting them.
Retreat? Nightcrawler asks. Kill them all, Wolverine replies and begins fighting savagely. Place to let out the beast, he figures and wonders if Betsy was right. The hell with her and all of them, he figures. No matter what they say, this is what they want from him and it’s what he’s best at. Soon as somebody’s gotta be opened up, who gets the call? And he lets them. Let it define him. Let it lead to X-Force - team-sized excuse to kill. To bring some friends with him. An Alcoholics Anonymous meeting with mandatory drinking contest.
He gets distracted when he seen an out-of-costume Wade, who tells him to run (and follows his own advice). He should have listened, the Omega Clan members inform him as they capture Nightcrawler. Wolverine smells their scent; it’s that of Omega Red, a dead man. One of their tendrils pierces him and fills him with something worse than poison.
Nightcrawler teleports free and onto the back of Omega White to kill him with his sword. His foe uses his mental powers to subdue him. As Nightcrawler begins to age rapidly, Wolverine swells up and the female member crows that from X-Force’s foul misdeeds their family was ended and a new one was born. Suffer their retribution, suffer the Omega Clan!

Final Execution – chapter two: Everything Right is Wrong Again
A nice suburban house, where the Skinless Man has just finished the gruesome work of killing a couple in their bed. “Sorry, love,” he takes over the woman’s part. “While you were off in an Otherworldlian prison, things went a bit south. Little Teddy died, hit by a drunk driver. I was so distraught I married this Wally from your law practice. In fact, we were just having an afternoon bout of “how’s your father,” blissfully unaware of your return.”
He holds up the woman’s face, which he cut off, and admires its beauty When he makes his new skin, he vows, he will be sure to give it a very special place… right on his arse!
He leaves the house and addresses the shocked neighbor who is watering his lawn. No need to for the alarmed expression, he tells him as he borrows the hose to clean the bloodied face. He has a new life, new friends and recently settled out of court with his ex. Nothing quite like settling old scores…
Paris, France:
Fantomex came here to help Deadpool, of whom he had grown quite fond. Unable to find him, he instead settled for a spot of debauchery. Dressed only in boxers and his mask, he watches the wild party around him, trying very hard not to think of Elizabeth Braddock, their night together and the cruel way she dumped him the next morning. How right she was about him…
He steps onto the balcony to suddenly hear Betsy’s voice, telling him she was hoping they could talk. She admits she doesn’t know what’s going on with her. She didn‘t mean to hurt him. Yes, she did he replies. The way she feels about him so soon after losing Warren, it makes her feel like an awful person. Can they just talk? she pleads. He throws everybody out, then tells her to talk.
Does it hurt? one of the members of the Omega Clan, the young Omega Red, asks Wolverine who has bloated monstrously. His healing factor is tuning on itself. The villain gloats how this is an auto-immune disease, his super lupus was introduced and Wolverine’s healing factor began to read his joints and organs as foreign invaders to be destroyed. Inflammation runs amok! He swells with pus and spontaneous decay as his body consumes itself. He will die bloated and ridiculous, as their benefactor instructed. He continues that they willingly underwent the augmentation. To humiliate him, the way he humiliated their family.
Flashback to memory implant:
He recalls how mother tried to hide the children. Father stayed back, to defend them. His screams filled the air as mother hid them. Hidden, the three children witnessed X-Force (Wolverine, Deadpool and AoA Nightcrawler) murdering the mother as well. And they promised to God to see them pay.
End of flashback:
Wolverine weakly protest this never happened.  They only recently met the elf, and he and Wade never used to run together. Not that many years back! They are being used!
Predictably, the Omega Clan doesn’t believe it. They believe the killers had been bought by pharmaceutical companies to kill their family after their father found a cure for the disease now ravaging Wolverine’s body.
Elsewhere in the complex, Deadpool works through the huge and fascinating catalogue White Sky offers.
Wolverine weakly protests X-Men don’t kill scientists. His attempt to attack fails.
Meanwhile, the Jean Grey School students are on a class trip to Genosha. Beast and Kitty inform the students how sixteen million mutants died here without warning, among the victims Kitty’s father. They are unaware that Sabretooth watches them. Kitty stresses it is important they remember the dead and work towards a world where mutants and humans live together, ensuring they never see a repeat of this atrocity.
Quentin Quire suggests a solid idea: how about not raising their very own Apocalypse? he asks and points at Evan. Kitty orders him to shut up. They don’t punish people for fear of what they may become. And even then, they still try to rehabilitate, even little monsters like Quentin!
Via Sabretooth, the new leader of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants watches them. Plan’s moving, they are golden, he announces satisfied. Grab that “little git” for the road trip!
Ready to live it up, tubby? he asks the Shadow King in his Amahl Farouk shape. Mildly, the evil telepath asks if it is wise to show such insolence to the one who provides the information currently enabling them to hatch this plan. Once the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants destroys Wolverine and outs X-Force, they will get him an award plaque, is the reply. Amused, the Shadow King asks if they are talking that name officially.
Given their membership, they are too good for the title, if anything, the leader replies. And if they are not enough to warrant the title, soon they will have their very own Apocalypse. And then they’ll see how old Logan likes it when they are the ones preemptively killing their foes…
In the White Sky Showroom, Nightcrawler suffers from his energy being turned inward by the Omegas.
Wolverine tries to telepathically call Psylocke, telling her they need her and Fantomex, but there is no reply. He realizes they are alone and haven’t got much longer. He claws up his body to release the poison. The fat and ooze and blood drains downwards and drenches Deadpool just as he has found what he needed on the computer.
In Paris, Fantomex and Betsy’s talk advanced beyond talking and has now returned to it. What next? he asks. Will she remember she hates him and say something horrible? No, but she does have a surprise. She orders him to close his eyes. He jokes that, if this is what he thinks it is, he’ll need five minutes before he is of any use to her again.
He leans back, eyes closed, while she rummages in her purse to get a gun. He muses that he remembers the first time he saw her… she had thee amazing pure violet eyes. Which is why he found it odd that her eyes suddenly had specks of yellow. He also points a gun at her.
Impatiently, Mystique turns to her true form, firing. She misses. Fantomex tackles her.
In Manhattan, the real Betsy Braddock heads up to her Manhattan apartment, wondering if she was too cruel to Fantomex. But she did enjoy it. After all his selfishness, he deserved a small dose of the nightmare her life has become.
It’s about to get worse as she enters the apartment to find Professor Xavier and Warren Worthington sitting there. Warren explains Xavier returned his memories. He remembers everything. He remembers how she helped kill that boy. He remembers that she killed him.
Xavier psychically restrains Betsy and explains he has no confidence in her decision making abilities. This squad of killers, how long did they think they could conceal it from him? He has been lied to by many of his students. He has seen many fall to darkness. But this… he’s never been so ashamed.
After learning of X-Force, he approached Betsy’s brothers. They were sure she could be redeemed. Her time in Otherworld was an opportunity they devised to show him. Jamie created the Goat Monk scenario for Betsy to earn her redemption. A test she failed when she chose to kill her own brother!
Warren gently adds it’s not her fault. Torn from her natural body and life… Corrupted, killed and resurrected so many times, she isn’t even a full person anymore…
Betsy sobs they are right. She got out! She quit! Xavier insists there is only one way for her. He must erase her mind, erase the mistake she has become, rewind her to who she was before the Siege Perilous. He orders her to relax. When she wakes, the past few years will be gone, and their Betsy will be returned to them.
Telepathically, Psylocke lashes out at them. She is gone! she announces forcefully. She jumps out of the window and flees. However right they may be, she refuses to be a puppet anymore, to let the men in her life dictate who she can be.
She falls and finds her brother Jamie standing in front of her. Angel catches up with her and kicks her, assuring her Xavier’s option is the only one. Jamie hits her as well. She can’t outrun her past, he tells her. “We murderers all pay in the end.”
The Sky White Showroom. The AoA Kurt Wagner vows he will not die here at the hand of fools. Not when they are still out there. The dead bodies of his friends and family demand revenge. They will not rest if he dies now. He tries to remember her blood, her room, her closed casket. It was light. Far too light to have housed her body. How much of her was missing? Eaten? He tells himself to leave. This isn’t his fight. Jump the hell away!  Overcome by his weakness, he vomits, while one of the Omegas orders him to beg like their mother begged.
That moment, a powered armored red figure shows up, calling himself Alpha Atomic. Prattling nonsense and firing away, he distracts the Omega Clan long enough for Wolverine and Deadpool to grab Nightcrawler whom Logan orders to teleport them to the Blackbird, even as they are discovered.
Kurt moans it is too far and without a visual he could ‘port them into a solid object. Dead by one or the other, Wade replies and tells him to do it. Kurt complies and they make the jump.
Aboard the Blackbird Deadpool hooks Kurt up to the med station. Wolverine tries to reach Betsy and Fantomex to tell them they are in danger. But Fantomex is busy battling Mystique and Psylocke is convinced she deserves to die.

Final Execution – chapter three: The World Won’t Stop Without You
On the roofs of Paris, Fantomex and Mystique fight. She makes love nothing like Betsy, he goads. Yet he continued, she points out. He didn’t say it was bad, Fantomex admits. Still, she could have killed him without the sex, he remarks as she swings and misses. One last fling for old time’s sakes? Should he be flattered? He kicks her.
He should be poisoned! she replies. She simply had to get the dose near him. If that feels like flattery, she kicks him, he’ll beam after this. The toxin shut down his mutant abilities. That’s why his misdirection isn’t working.
Hanging from the rooftop, he asks why does she endure such a defilement to poison rabble such as him. Their reasons are their own. He doesn’t miss the plural.
And better to die than see what they have in store for his dear Elizabeth Braddock!  Mystique goads, ready to kick him off the roof. Instead, he grabs her foot to drag her with him, shouting, better yet, he’ll stop them!
She lands in the apartment of a hysterical couple and sees Fantomex leaving in EVA. Their mixed-up man- prize in en route, she tells her boss via commlink. Poisoned? He injures her, she tuts. God, yes, he’s poisoned to the gills!
The Jean Grey School students are on a field trip to Genosha. Quentin Quire addresses Evan Sabanuhr, remarking such a creepy place must be paradise to a sociopath like him. Is he thinking on how he’ll do this to the humans? Thinking how he’d deal with anyone who tried, is Evan’s reply. He knows how bad Evan wants to sell that line but he’s read all about Apocalypse, Quentin insists. All Evan is, is a bad day waiting for him in the future. He looks at him and sees a monster!
Such a subjective concept, comes from behind him as Sabretooth slams Quentin’s head to the ground, especially coming from him. He turns to Evan and suggests they get to know each other. Name’s Creed. Unless he runs, his name is about to be “cerebral hemorrhage,” announces Kid Gladiator. Mouthy runt, Creed remarks. Stupid hair.
The AoA Blob lands on the boy, remaking his hair ain’t that bad. Just needs a little fistula styling grease to give it a more relaxed look.
Evan has taken the opportunity to run, berating himself for being a coward. No, it’s smart, he decides, like uncle Cluster taught him. A smart man can tell a time to fight and a time to run. That’s a villain after him, a real one. After him because of what he is.
Sabretooth calls from the dark they’ve been lying to Evan. Lying is what Chuck Xavier’s clowns do. He’s got power. Power to change the world! Power to turn the tide and set things right for folk like them. He just needs better teachers, Sabretooth announces and tranquilizes him.
A little later, Beast and Kitty come running to find Evan gone. Why would they want Evan? Broo wonders. Same reasonthey don’t want him, Quentin retorts. He’s the damned Apocalypse!
En route to New York, EVA has found the place Betsy is staying. Fantomex fears she is already dead. No other reason Mystique would let it slip; she wants him to discover her body.
EVA warns Fantomex that the poison was designed specifically to dampen his power. He will not have his healing or misdirection. Fine, gives them a fighting chance, he decides as he jumps in through the window.
In the apartment, an amused Amahl Farouk is nursing a drink. Where is she? Fantomex demands. Farouk muses she’s been a disappointment, really. He wanted to defeat the warrior who caged him for so many years. Instead he found this fragile, broken girl… A mind so splintered, so molested, it must have been meticulously planned.  Where? Fantomex demands, guns aimed at his head. The bathroom, comes the reply.
Fantomex rushes in to find Betsy sitting in the tub, crying that she killed them. He tries to calm her. When she recognizes him, she orders him away. Fantomex tries to explain.
The Skinless Man grins as he uses one of his tendrils to grab him by the throat. Look at her, terrified of him. As if that poor girl has seen the face of her true torturer. He slams Fantomex’s face against the mirror. Standing above him, with his knife drawn, he accuses Fantomex of cruelty. Misdirecting her feelings of love for him. Smart plot to control one of the world’s most powerful telepaths. To turn her against her own people. Sublime’s ultimate mutant killer. He wonders if Fantomex even knew he was doing it. Well, either way, she knows. And the pain that knowing causes her will be the last thing she ever experiences. Well, that and his blade…
Fantomex kicks him off and shoots at him, promising she will experience much more – revenge, for example! He orders Betsy to get up. She hallucinates, calling him Jamie, begging him to take her home. She needs to see Brian.
Fantomex realizes there are two options before him. One is very simple and leaves him whole. The other is difficult and will destroy him. He takes off his mask with its dampening plates which block telepaths and puts it over her head. With the Shadow King’s access blocked, she recognizes him.
He leads her out of the bathroom, aware that his mind is now open to the Shadow King. Fantomex switches control between brains as he fires at Farouk.
Three brains, Farouk muses, all after different things: this one is noble, the second one is quite the mischief maker, and the third brain, dear heavens, such a vile place!
Fantomex carries her of the window to EVA and pushes her inside with the order to get Betsy to safety, even as Skinlessman’s flesh tendrils draw Fantomex back inside the apartment. Now, he asks grinning, knife raised, where were they?
Fantomex tells himself he did the right thing. He saved her. Helpless as the Skinless Man pulls him up he tells himself to be there for this. Don’t die in a panic.
The Skinless Man informs him they have the boy Apocalypse. They are going to crack open his brain and use him for all manner of misbehavior.
Fear is only an idea, Fantomex tells himself. Ignore it!
Elizabeth will live to die at the boy’s hands, the Skinless Man gloats. Burning, she will know Fantomex set it all in motion. And the little boy, his experiment, will kill billions.
He cuts out his heart.  Grinning, he shows it to Fantomex. Once you let go, it’s not so… Fantomex mutters and falls.
Go now, the Skinless Man tells him. Sleep! He did well. Father will be so proud.
EVA is about to reach Cavern-X, ignoring Psylocke’s pleas to go back. EVA informs her it would undo his sacrifice. So he is dead, Betsy states. Just now, EVA reveals, their connection severed. She has live. Enact their revenge. It’s how he’d want things. Find his killers. She will, Psylocke promises. EVA apologizes. She is dying as well. Betsy thanks her for her life. EVA tells her to jump before she crashes.
Betsy does so and realizes she can only think about revenge. There is no sadness. No sorrow. The Shadow King’s torture was sorrow he created but it felt so good to finally mourn. Now it is gone while her last words to Jean-Phillipe remain. “There is no ‘you’ to have feelings for.” But it was a lie. A lie she will never be able to confess to.
Gateway watches as EVA goes down. He helps Psylocke up. From the conflagration, a female figure rises, telling Betsy not to fall to despair. The second stage has just begun.
Wolverine gives orders to prep the medical lab, fearing they have been injured too. The three newcomers enter and Betsy falls into Logan’s arms. The strange female introduces herself as an evolved EVA.
Betsy stammers he is dead. Who? Logan asks. Fantomex, stupid! comes a voice from a  telescreen. Daken grins triumphantly. “Hey, dad, sorry I killed your friend. Jeez, guess I’m gonna get grounded!” He’s gonna have to punish him but good, ‘cause this is just the tip of the iceberg.
That moment, Ultimaton appears, as Daken expected. What is the meaning of life? he asks. Why must he kill all mutants? He snaps Gateways’ neck. Why create Evan? Ultimaton continues. Why have him raise the boy?
Funny thing about super-Sentinels like Ultimaton, Daken continues. Once free of Fantomex’s control, he goes right back to his primary function, killing mutants.
And Ultimaton blows up, taking all of Cavern-X with him.
Triumphantly, the Brotherhood watches and Daken tells Evan that no matter what his old man and his geek friends were trying to sell Evan… he’s got the straight dope. Learned the hard way. Bad guys use a better part of the coin to land on.

Final Execution – chapter four: Days of Preemptive Future
30 seconds ago:
Psylocke realizes Fantomex is dead, Daken’s cackling and a loud buzz muffles the sound of Gateway’s spine snapping. The buzzing is Ultimaton, seconds away from detonation. Gateway, their only way out, lies broken and dying at his feet. Betsy trespasses his dying mind, finds some remaining trace of him, holds him, prolonging his agony. She begs Gateway to forgive her and send them a way. Which he does.
30 years later:
X-Force emerges, only to be expected by their sometime ally Deathlok, who welcomes them to the future. He’ll explain on the way. Wolverine telepathically asks Betsy what she did. She explains and adds she couldn’t verify a location or a time period.
Deadpool asks aloud if they are doing the telepathic talking thing, so Deathlok can’t hear them. Belatedly, he asks if he thought that or said that.
Deathlok explains they are in Los Angeles 30 years in their future. No need for secrecy, he isn’t here to hurt them. There are others who are. They anticipate their arrival. Psylocke cannot ascertain the truth from his mind. They do not want to be here when they arrive, Deathlok warns. Deadpool remarks that he bets Deathlok was dying to say “Come with me if you want to live!” right then. And who are they? No one they want to meet, the cyborg promises.
“They” turn out to be Cable, Hope and older Deadpool, who arrive a little later. Cable gives orders not to harm the travellers. Deadpool remarks the last part cannot be stressed enough. Frank Castle, he is looking in his direction. Is he picking that up?
They land to find X-Force are gone. Hope finds traces of blood and oil and figures America’s most-wanted cyborg got them first. They inform headquarters that Deathlok has taken the time travellers.
Future Wolverine shouts at them to go and get them. Frank Castle points out that he is unnerved. Wolverine explains this isn’t how he remembers things going! Because it isn’t how things went, the magistrate, sitting at the desk, remarks calmly. Deathlok’s tachyon transmitter, always whispering back and forth between his past and future selves… he is trouble.
Maybe he is after something else, Logan suggests. Killing does go against his AI’s love theory. He asks Castle if Deathlok would break his own protocol and kill the travelers to get to them. Castle believes that, if he was looking to off them, he’d have done it. But if push came to shove, Logan stresses. The Magistrate interrupts that the push will not be allowed to come to shove. She orders Commander Castle to join General Summers and gather the travelers. And, Magistrate Elizabeth Braddock stresses, deliver them unharmed.
Elsewhere, Deathlok hands out small devices to X-Force to keep them guarded from the Magistrate’s thought crime surveillance. Betsy refuses as she can guard her own mind. While Deadpool wants to know if they are Bluetooth compatible.
Why does the government care about them? Nightcrawler asks. Deathlok leads them to his underground hideout and tells them they will leave in five minutes.
While EVA tries to bandage Psylocke’s injuries Wolverine tells Deathlok that they just lost two of their own. Killed by his son, who’s trying to twist a young Apocalypse into serving the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, unless they stop him. He’s on a short fuse, so no more orders! Has he got plans to get them back home because lots of folks are in need of killing!
Murder is the wrong solution, comes Deathlok’s reply. Fine, lesson learned, Wolverine answers. What the hell is the plan? He’ll see, once he shows them around. Wolverine shouts that he isn’t interested in the grand tour. Deathlok promises he has access to one of Kang’s time machines. He’ll send them back once they see.
EVA pities Betsy for what she experienced at Farouk’s hands, then tells her she mustn’t feel responsible. Fantomex came to her aid of his own volition. He valued her as much as he could anyone. He knew she was destined to make the world a better place. To succumb to sorrow now would undo his sacrifice. Lucky for her, sorrow isn’t an option, Betsy replies as she gets up.
Nightcrawler and Deadpool banter for a bit before Kurt refers to Wade’s lack of a healing factor: his wounds are deep. If Wade knew he’d lost his abilities, why accept the dangerous White Sky mission? Deadpool replies he’s a crazy person. He makes imprudent choices. No, wait! That was a great setup – let’s do it again! He didn’t want to let anyone down because this is the closest thing to a family he ever had!
A little later, hiding in the shadows, they watch Castle patrolling. Why is the Punisher hunting them? Wolverine demands. They want to send X-Force back before they see, Deathlok replies. Looking at the modern city, Logan remarks it doesn’t seem half bad.
Totalitarian fascism, preemptive assassination, peace brought through fear,… it is hell! Deathlok sternly replies. He fights for true liberty. He fights for love and forgiveness… He should fight that hippie fungus growing around his hairy sack, Deadpool suggests.
Quiet! Deathlok orders. They are here. They observe how Warpath violently drags a man out of an apartment. His wife protests that her husband didn’t do anything. Not yet, he replies. He won’t! she begs him. She’ll stop him. They have children! He knows, Warpath replies. X-Force just saved their lives. He packs the man into the glider and they leave.
Where are they taking him? Psylocke asks Deathlok. “Preventive termination,” is his reply. X-Force’s methodology taken to the exponential conclusion.
Who is in charge of this? Wolverine demands. Deathlok points to a giant image of Magistrate Elizabeth Braddock.  Deathlok explains the boy they all saved, Evan, ascends as Apocalypse. He became the worst threat their world had ever known. Logan gathered an army of X-Force. An army dedicated to murdering their opposition. Apocalypse was killed. A terrified world was liberated and they became celebrated as heroes. They were elected to ensure such monsters never again rise to threaten humanity. A few years later, they’d killed every known criminal. When there were no more criminals, they began to kill preemptively. As soon as somebody makes up their mind to kill, X-Force eliminates them. This is their bright utopia, built on death and blood.
Stopping killers before they kill? What’s so bad? Logan demands. Pushing him against a wall, Deathlok shouts that murder for any reason is still murder! Sometimes murder is the price they pay to protect innocents! Logan retorts. Sometimes murder is a necessary sacrifice.
Deathlok points out the doubt in his voice. When Logan denies this, Deathlok announces he defers to the savage logic of his human host… an’ he’s gonna save the world from them the only way they understand! He switches personality mid-sentence. He points his gun at Logan’s head and fires.
Nightcrawler teleports Logan away, while Deadpool protests that Deathlock’s gonna kill them to stop them from creating a future where they kill people to stop them from—
Logan reappears above Deathlok. Funny kind of love he worships, he mocks and lashes out at him. Turns out they go to the same church. Let’s pray together! Deathlok suggests, as he impales him. Deadpool wants to point out more hypocrisy but gets a fist in the face. Taking a Kree Nebula staff, Deathlok intends to evaporate X-Force. He will prevent this world! he shouts.
That moment, he is shot by several arriving sky cycles. Deathlok mumbles he failed, failed himself by turning killer. He deserves to die knowing this world goes on. He throws himself off the roof of the skyscraper.
The newcomers are Cable, Hope and an older Deadpool. Wolverine asks Cable if they are here to help. Not here to hurt them, no matter what lies that freak told them.
Deadpool asks “Oldpool” how the sag factor is. Older Deadpool orders him to shut up. Where the hello did Braddock go?
Betsy is fleeing, seeing the choice. Kill her older self and put an end to this or let them send X-Force home and the future is still up to them. She decides that isn’t true. Free will is an illusion! They can’t stop this from happening because they won’t stop killing!
She ends up under a statue of her older self. She spread this filth across the entire world. Further proof it’s ingrained too deeply in her heart to change. Jean-Philllipe died for her so she could live, to do this. She decides this will not be the legacy of his sacrifice. She takes out her katana and impales herself. She falls in a pool of her own amassing blood…

Final Execution – chapter five: No Trust in tomorrow
30 years in the future:
Everything begins to shake. In X-Force’s headquarters, Warpath and Logan (of that time) run towards Magistrate Braddock’s office. Logan explains that Pym called it a timequake. One big boot to the timeline’s ass. Warpath wonders if one of the travelers died. They enter Elizabeth’s office. She lies moaning on the ground. She explains her younger self is dying and so is she. She seems to be fading.
Logan asks her where the other Betsy is.  She can’t see, she moans. Minutes left, maybe less. She pleads that he must find her and save her or she will assassinate their entire universe!
Elsewhere, Betsy Braddock has rammed her Katana into her stomach, in effect trying to commit suicide. As she sees reality breaking up, she marvels, detached, at how spectacular it looks. The blade missed her spine, but it’s working. She’s dying and this place dies with her.
This future – a peace bought through murder and fascism. A methodology she accepted when she joined Logan’s killers. And she lost everything! Everyone she loves, dominoes falling one after another. But she’ll erase it. She tries to shift the sword and sever the spinal cord.
That moment, Frank Castle finds her and announces she is under arrest. Her savior, the Punisher, she coughs, the irony totally lost on him.  He pulls out the blade. She kicks him. As she gets up, he threatens h r with a gun. Almost funny, Betsy announces. Violence as first instinct. Hard habit to break. She gets it. She staggers to the roof’s edge. Stop! he shouts. Or he’ll shoot her? she asks as she jumps.
Cable in his flyer catches her. Can’t she see what she’s destroying? A world where no innocent ever suffers! Because they murder anyone with impure thoughts, Betsy retorts. He accuses her of oversimplifying things. They are the fist humanity needs to protect itself. She head-butts him. Who will kill them for their murderous thoughts? Perhaps she is the fist humanity needs to cleanse all of them.
She tries to steer the flyer towards a building. Cable jumps off with her first and uses a hook and line to save them. She just needs to see what they’ve accomplished. She’s seen enough! she tells him. Seen enough death and terror, enough to know they were wrong!
Nightcrawler teleports them onto the roof. Panicked, Wolverine shouts she’s dying. Older Logan on another flyer orders him to give her to him. He promises not to let her die.
Betsy grabs Deadpool’s gun and holds it under her chin, preparing to shoot herself. Magistrate Braddock telepathically stops her, ordering her to sleep. “Your fault, all yours,” Betsy tells Logan before she goes under. Both Wolverines shout at her not close her eyes.
Psylocke’s dream:
“Elizabeth?” a voice asks from the blackness. Betsy, in her old body again, awakes in a fountain in an idyllic place. Warren Worthington takes her hand. Dead again so soon? he scolds. She is not supposed to be here. There is a way these things are intended to go. He knew once he left that things would be bad for a time, but this. Suicide?
She had nothing left to give to it, Betsy states. Any of it. She had to save the world from what she’d become. He of all people has to understand. She shouldn’t have quit, Warren admonishes her. Betsy refuses to carry it anymore. There is nothing for her. There--
She couldn’t be more wrong, he promises. Then she doesn’t deserve it, Betsy insists. Warren admits there are evils that are deserving of destruction but not Betsy, and not Logan. There are new lives awaiting them both. New loves.
They have blood on their hands, Betsy points out. Warren takes her hand as he flies upward with her. Has it never occurred to her that what Fantomex did might be right? That boy Apocalypse was indoctrinated, grown in artificial time. Trained to take over the world, to kill off mankind. Fantomex saved hundreds of millions lives.
And what she did to Warren… Betsy stammers. Was done years before they met, he replies. Yet still when they fell in love Betsy took on the responsibility of his curse – never a thought to the future price she might pay. He would have killed everyone on Earth if she hadn’t stopped him. She stuck by him until it was clear there was nothing more to be done, and then she set him free.
She cries and complains that she can’t even mourn him. Life is hard enough, he tells her. Why long for sorrow! She’s met her challenges well, her beauty and integrity undiminished, Betsy cries she only ever wanted to help protect her friends and family and make the world better. She has and will, Warren promises and tells her to forgive herself. Find new loves. Allow herself joy. Enjoy her life. Glad for every day of it. And in the blink of an eye they will be together again. They kiss.
Reality:
“Warren!” Betsy stammers as she awakes in a healing tank, Magistrate Braddock at her side, who tries to sooth her. Betsy accuses her of causing this dream. How dare she?
Magistrate Braddock promises she did nothing.  But she sees Warren in her dreams as well. Great loves leave a mark on the soul. What could she know about love? Betsy snarls. More than she can know, the older woman replies patiently. Much more.  She knows where Betsy’s true love lies. What they felt for Jean-Philippe was true. But she knows his love would have corrupted them in the end.
She loved Warren, Betsy replies stubbornly. Of course they did, Braddock agrees. But they know it wasn’t the same. What they felt for Jean-Philippe was chemical. She felt it in her cells. She often wondered if father had fated it for some reason. Brian and Jamie hated and feared the man so. Regardless, it is an incentive high when you feel so deeply. Fortunately, the Skinless Man stole his heart away from them.
Betsy shouts he died to save them. How can she be so callous? The benefit of time and distance, is the reply. She’ll get over both of them and find fulfillment elsewhere.
She offers Betsy a cup of tea, which the other woman declines. She continues that when no one else can do what is necessary to protect mankind – she will. She will save the world because of what she’s become. Over the years she will transform into her. Still, got her figure. Not so bad.
She’s a mass murderer, Betsy accuses her. And the world is perfect because of it, her older self points out. Betsy refuses to believe she will ever be convinced this is the solution. Calmly, older Elizabeth replies she already has or they wouldn’t still be here.
In the meantime, the rest of the team is talking to older X-Force. Old Logan refuses to tell them anything, not wishing to risk the timestream any more. Ant-Man points out there are terrible dangers in the small things they have learned already. Deadpool assures them he hasn’t learned anything so far, if that helps.
Old Logan tells the younger one that he know what he did. Knows he’ll find his way to it. He knows that look, his younger self replies. He is running a con. He knows what he expects he’ll do. But it ain’t gonna go down that way. Let’s just get them home and see, his older self replies.
Frank Castle tells them he doesn’t care what the geeks say. They want to save themselves a world war? Kill that Kid Apocalypse when they find him. Logan’s bastard too. Then go find that son of Archangel and –Frank, enough! Ant-Man warns.
Kill this kid, kill that kid! Deadpool imitates him. Bang Bang Pow! Take that, Webster! Hasta la vista, Beaver! Look out, cute kid from ‘Jerry Maguire’! He forces Castle’s features into a smile and tells him to lighten up. For what it’s worth, he always hated the Punisher. He is a boring two-dimensional self-serious relic from the70ies. Oh, and Chuck Bronson called – he wants everything he did back!
Furious, Castle points a gun at him. Calm blue ocean, Wade advises him, remember who he is. Past Deadpool. He can’t kill him without screwing up the timestream.
How important is Wade to history? the Punisher ask. Remember that thing with Zombie Nixon? Ant-Man reminds him. Deadpool adds he will play a role in the next round of cola-wars. He supports the other cola, the one you only ever find in depressing places. What’s that stuff called?
Nightcrawler reminisces that they haven’t had soda in his world for years. Does he ever miss any opportunity to remind them of how bad things are in the Age of Apocalypse? Wade asks. They get it already.
Nightcrawler asks Ant-Man what would happen if he killed Wade.  Might not be that far from how it goes down, Ant-Man concedes.
Later, X-Force is standing on the time platform. Older Logan tells them he knows what they are up against. Knows what they are thinking but it’ll change. It’ll be hard but they can hack it. Sure, younger Logan agrees. Ain’t like he has his very existence hinge on it. Old Logan offers to tell him one thing. Do with it what he will. He whispers something in his younger self’s ear.
Be safe, older Elizabeth tells her glaring younger self. Ant-Man activates the platform and they are gone.
Think he’ll do it? older Logan ask Elizabeth. With a kiss, she replies they are still here, aren’t they?

Final Execution – chapter six: While You Were Away
Dream:
Outside a farm in Kansas. Evan Sabahnur and his “Uncle Cluster” (aka Fantomex) are playing baseball. Ensabah Nur was the first mutant on Earth, Fantomex informs the boy. As such, he was selected by the Celestials to become Apocalypse, charged with ensuring the success of humanity‘s new mutations. Ensuring they would flourish and become the dominant species. But Apocalypse’s duty was held back by the X-Men.
He throws the ball. When the X-Man Wolverine learned of a reborn Apocalypse, he sent a team to kill him. Only the monster was still just a boy.
Did they kill him? Evan asks startled. Fantomex turns away without replying. Evan runs after him but stumbles over a stone and falls. Wordlessly, Fantomex walks into the farmhouse. Holding his aching head, Evan follows.
His mother tells him to wash that out. As he cleans away the dirt, Evan asks Fantomex why he never told him any of this before. Fantomex turns into the Shadow King and grins that “Uncle Cluster” was the one who shot Evan. Evan look into the mirror and sees Apocalypse looking back at him.
reality:
No! Evan screams and awakes to find Amahl Farouk sitting next to him. The boy asks where he is. Reality, the evil telepath replies. They are in the back of a spacious car driven by Daken. Riding shotgun is Sabretooth, who turns around and points out one can’t be sure with so many telepaths running around. Who are they? Evan asks. The people who will tell him the truth, Daken promises. Who are going to tell him exactly what his “friends” have done to him…
At the Jean Grey School, Kitty Pryde and Beast have no idea how to find their kidnapped student, Evan. And their headmaster Wolverine is MIA. Kitty fears with those villains working together as they’ve seen on Genosha that means the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants has reformed. They don’t know that, Hank muses. Sabretooth, the Blob… they don’t equal a new Brotherhood. Kitty’s gut says differently. Creed has learned the significance of Evan. Question is, what does he plan to do with him?
The Brotherhood’s headquarters:
Mystique and Omega Black are playing pool, the Blob is eating and the wall is adorned with Fantomex’s corpse. Mystique wonders whether they actually managed to kill Wolverine. The Skinless Man informs her that, according to his scans, there is no trace of him or his companions anywhere on Earth, so, yes, dead. AoA Blob points out that Nightcrawler could teleport them away but he was bleeding out, beaten. No way did he get them out in time.
The Skinless Man is excited at what Daken and Farouk are planning with the boy. Even if they fail, he is satisfied, having been given his judgment. He studies Fantomex’s body. Mystique agrees that revenge may be priceless stuff but, if this goes off, payback is just the beginning. If all goes well, they’ll have the power to do anything they want.
Elsewhere, Evan glares at Farouk but as the evil telepath points out that he is as powerful as Xavier, so if he doesn’t want Evan to access his eyeblasts, he won’t.
Cheesitums? Sabretooth offers. What are they going to do to him? Evan demands. He makes it sound so ominous, Daken scoffs. Calling them villains…
Evan doubts they kidnapped him to round up the group for their roadtrip. Would a villain share his cheesitums? Sabretooth mock-protests. Piercing one with  a claw, Daken agrees that’s some altruistic business.
He tells Evan he isn’t saying they are heroes. What a weirdly egotistical thing to apply to oneself. And “villains?” What does that even mean? People use the term “villain” to describe anyone who opposes them. Everyone sees their enemy as the villain. Hero, villain, these are words stupid people use. Stupid people like Evan’s teacher and father figure, Wolverine. Stupid people like Daken’s dad, who also happens to be Wolverine. Get the resemblance?
They come to a stop at a gas station. Daken asks Evan what if Sabretooth were to murder everyone inside the gas station, unless Evan killed him first. Would he do it? He’d find another way, the boy claims. Sabretooth enters the station and Daken points out nothing short of killing him with his most powerful attack will stop him. The Shadow King is unlocking that potential in Evan now. There isn’t much time…
Evan runs after Creed. Evan blasts him and orders the people to run. Grinning, Creed reminds him he had to use his full power. He holds back, she pays. He impales a woman.
Evan wildly attacks him, his eyes aglow, but finds he can’t do it. Creed grabs him by the throat and promises the woman won’t be the last death. He’ll kill again. And since Evan hasn’t got the stones to stop him, whoever he kills is Evan’s fault.
Cheerfully, Daken adds this is what the roadtrip will mostly be – a whole lot of killing. He burns down the station. And the only way to stop them is to kill them first. Preemptive killing is a tough thing to get, he chats, even though they are murderers. But this concept is what both of Evan’s adoptive fathers do. Logan and Fantomex. Shadow King has been in Logan’s head. He knows all about it. It’s how they found Evan. Found out about the truth they won’t tell Evan, Daken says. His dads are Grade A hypocrites.
They aren’t his parents, Evan points out. Right.  His parents. Daken grins evilly. Their next stop. Evan recognizes Tolmen’s field, near his home. He hits the Shadow King and jumps out of the driving truck. He runs into the cornfield and toward the farm house. He shouts they have to run away.
Inside, he finds his parents butchered by Daken and Sabretooth, who sneer he could have prevented this. Furiously, Evan fires his eyebeams the villains, then attacks with his fists.
A burned Daken slices his back, snarling Evan that is the chosen one. Show him something! Show him what makes him so special! He goads as he keeps attacking. That his father, who has never given Daken anything, has given him so much!
Evan glares, promising he will show him. He will show them power! He grows to giant size. Time to rabbit! Sabretooth orders. Evan grabs them and promises they will suffer. He will crush them.
However, he finds he hesitates. He lets them go, refusing to be like them. Daken commends his self-control, announcing he has some good news and some bad news. Good news is they didn’t really kill his parents. The bad news is they can never kill them ‘cause they never existed in the first place…

Final Execution – chapter seven
Three hours from now:
Surrounded by utter devastation, a badly burned Wolverine cradles a corpse, berating himself that he should have known. He should have protected that person better! He shouldn’t blame himself, Genesis, now in Apocalypse armor, tells him. This was the only way it could have ended.
Cavern-X, now:
X-Force returns after their horrible adventures in the future. Deathlok is expecting them and welcomes them home. Wolverine belligerently points out that, the last time Deathlok said that, he was trying to kill them within the hour. He is not who he will become, Deathlok replies calmly. Neither are they. There are two things they must discuss.
Wolverine unsheathes his claws, ready for a fight. Psylocke orders him to hear Deathlok out. Deathlok announces he will track down Ultimaton and the World within him. He will ensure they are destroyed. They must see now that barring his last attempt was an error. He’s here for an “I told you so?” Logan snarls. Fine, Ultimaton is his to deal with. They done here? Important business waiting!
Calmly, Deathlok continues that there are important things they must know. They have taken Evan to Genosha. They will corrupt him. It is the choices X-Force makes next that will eternally define them, he warns. Choices that will also shape the future of man and mutant alike.
That’s a big help, Deadpool mocks. Not a bit cryptic. They could use his help, Logan offers. Deathlok turns away. He knows too much to risk involvement. With love in his heart, he would risk greater suffering. He leaves them with a final warning – beware revenge! For it corrupts all who live to enact it.
They leave in EVA’s ship form. Deadpool muses aloud he’s glad that’s over. He hates time travel stories. They confuse his stupid brains. The mood was somber, he begins to narrate. The question hung in the air like a giant vampire bat with neon nipples. “Would we kill the kid again?” He’s thinking out loud again, Betsy chastises him.
EVA informs Logan that she’s made contact with a very unhappy Beast. A furious Beast informs them Sabretooth and Blob took Evan. Where the hell has he— No time for explanations, Logan interrupts. X-Force is taking care of it. That’s what Hank is afraid of. He demands to be told. He refuses to sit by while a student is in the hands of these monsters. Especially this student.
Logan tells him to stay put and protect the other kids until he hears from them. This new Brotherhood could have plans to attack the school. If things go sour, he’ll get the call first. Fine, Hank replies but warns him that, if any harm befalls the boy, he will personally see to it they pay this time. All of them!
Meanwhile in the Brotherhood’s headquarters:
Sabretooth is in bed with Mystique, complaining she has that French monkey’s stench all over her. She mocks him for being jealous. Primal, is all, he replies as he gets up. Smell of another man hinders his enjoyment. Amused, Mystique informs him that sex is a tool she uses so often, he’ll have to get used to the pain. What happened to his post-coital cigar? she asks as he takes out a dripping sandwich instead. Quit. Bloody Wagyu is a better aphrodisiac.
Still no sign of Logan, Mystique remarks and wonders if Ultimaton actually killed that cockroach. Nah, he’ll be here, Creed believes. He never stuck a blow to the little lady like this. Not since Silver Fox. His “true love,” he laughs. He did some howling over that one. He feeds Mystique a piece of bloody meat. But this is different. Lots of his chump friends were in the cave when it went up. Braddock is dead. Maybe Wade too. And old Logan got that Samurai honor, remember?
Nevertheless, Mystique is sure he can’t hurt them. Not this Brotherhood, not this time. Once Farouk cracks him, that kid’s gonna be a real firecracker, Sabretooth muses. And then she kills Farouk for what he did to Destiny, she smiles. He warns her to be quiet. He could be in her head.
He relishes the irony. Logan’s gonna die at the hands of a kid he once killed. Sitting astride atop him, Mystique remarks he seems awfully… enthusiastic about the idea. Enthusiasm like this is too hard to hide, he agrees.
Evan sits locked in a bloody room, still trying to work through the shock that his family and life aren’t real. And Uncle Cluster and headmaster Logan lied to him. Could good people lie about something so important? Good people couldn’t. Daken and Sabretooth told him the truth. He is nothing but a science experiment cloned from a boy Cluster murdered. So many lies, and the liars who hurt him. He looks at the Apocalypse armor hanging on the wall. Maybe someone should hurt them…
Suddenly, Fantomex comes stumbling in. Relieved, the boy hugs him, until he realizes he is hugging a corpse animated by the Skinless Man. “Surprise, still dead!” he shouts cheerfully.
That was screwed up, Daken marvels. Listen, he tells Evan, if he’s pissed, see that suit right there? It’s the real deal, Celestial made, one of Apocalypse’s orginals. It’ll amplify Evan’s powers, make him a god. Put it on and Shadow King can’t keep him cut off from his powers. Get revenge!
Evan refuses to look at him. He needs to think some more? That’s okay. They’ll leave him with his good uncle Cluster. Maybe he can offer some direction.
As he and Skinless Man leave the room, Daken remarks that he loves that they left the body in there with him. Skinless Man agrees; they need to make him upset enough to take the first step. Once he does, Daken continues, Farouk can push the punk’s mind the rest of the way.
Sabretooth joins them. He playfully hits Daken’s upper arm. He knew Daken was the man for the job. Look at him glowing! He told him this was the life for him. He ain’t Pan, he’s a pirate!  And this slimy limey, when they ran together, he had skin! And Sabretooth had a toothbrush he must have abandoned since then, Skinless Man shoots back.
He minds if he steals their fearless leader for a bit? Sabretooth asks. Not at all, Skinless chuckles, they’ve just been incredibly nasty to a child. He’s due for a cry in his guilt bucket.
So where are they at with the kid? Creed asks. Stronger than he looks, Daken describes. Thinks he’s a comic book hero. Still, just a matter of time. And how’s he feelin’? Sabretooth presses. Still got the fire to do this? Daken agrees. Old man never respected him, Sabretooth states. He will now. He’s hard to kill. No one’s ever gotten very close. Plan’s in place. Daken will succeed where the rest of them failed. He sees it in him. He’s got heart!
Daken hopes Creed is right. Wolverine will be awfully pissed. And aren’t they pissed? Sabretooth asks. What about the fire in their bellies? How many years has Daken watched him be embraced by the world while folks like them are labeled criminals and hunted? And who the hell is he? Just another killer! He just fancies it up. But he ain’t gonna stop killin’. He’s a savage like them, but worse – a damn hypocrite!
They walk through a room where the AOA Blob, surrounded by trash, watches TV. Sabretooth continues his tirade: Wolverine judges them because he sees in them what he hates in himself. Don’t take a smart man to see that. How is Daken really any different?
He probably likes to think that school makes him a better man, Daken points out. Running around with those goons in the Avengers. Like somehow that will erase all the blood on his hands. Sabretooth reminds Daken that Wolverine never thought of inviting Daken to join the school, to teach, to help him become a better man, to just get to know about his son, anything. He ever acknowledge Daken’s place as his heir? No, he wants him tucked in the shadows. A dirty secret he doesn’t want to mess up his name with.
As they enter the code to get into the command center, Creed points out that this boy Evan got the red carpet, the headmaster’s time and love. Even though he’s a walking talking WMD. And he’s sure got time to help terrorists like Quentin Quire, just none for his own boy!
They enter the center where the Shadow King is sitting with the Omega Clan. He is pleased he could help them unlock all those other repressed memories, the evil telepath assures the Omegas. These fiends have harmed them all. It is better they know everything, as fuel for the upcoming battle. The Omegas are eager for a fight.
Sabretooth continues that Evan is just another slap in Daken’s face. A reminder it’s not Daken, but Wolverine. He deserves better! He’s tough, tougher than Logan. He puts his hand on Daken’s shoulder. He deserves a father who loves him.
Mystique exits the shower. She feels in her bones that Wolverine isn’t dead. She prays he isn’t. She’d rather be close when he pays for the grave injuries he‘s dealt her. When the smoke has cleared, she plans to turn Evan against Farouk. Then they will all learn who to fear, the true leader of the Broterhood of Evil Mutants.
She opens the door when she hears a noise. Sabretooth tells her he needs to talk to her. Away from Shadow King and the others. When she begins to ask something, he shushes her, warning he might be listening. She follows him through the ruined building. Sabretooth warns that Farouk may have picked up on her murderous thoughts towards him. As they walk the streets of Genohsa, she wants to know about his angle. What the hell does he really want?
It’s more about what they want, he replies. The telepathic illusion dissolves and she faces X-Force and Psylocke, who tells her they want a few minutes of her time.
A psi-scan later, Betsy announces that they may be too late. Creed seems sure Evan will crack. Wolverine tells her not to count Evan out. He is strong. Betsy pragmatically asks what do they do if he’s become the thing they feared in the first place. Logan insists Evan’s a good kid. He ain’t gonna go dark on them.
Nightcrawler reminds them that Farouk has tortured the boy. They haven’t seen what an Apocalypse can do grown into full powers. They have to be ready to do this! Be prepared to kill the child, he warns, or they will lose their world!

Final Execution – chapter eight: Opposite of Progress
Daken looks at a water tank chamber. He tested the seal in the adamantium plates a dozen times. There was no margin for error, as Sabretooth incessantly reminded him. He drains the water, musing the easiest way to beat a man is not head-on confrontation. Feed your enemy’s ego! Leave him assured that his perspective is entirely righteous. Overconfident, he will sink from the weight of his own narcissism.
Or consider the missteps his father has left in his wake, Daken’s own existence primary among them. Pulling the threads is simple. Coming to terms with his own motivations is not. But he does know why he set this in motion. He’d do anything to earn his father’s respect, even destroy him.
Diving in the ocean, Wolverine and Psylocke close in on the Brotherhood’s headquarters. Wolverine assures her that Deadpool won’t kill Evan. He hasn’t got it in him. Silently, he tells himself, though, that his son Daken has it in him.
Betsy points out Wade is a mentally ill assassin whom they put into this situation. Future Deathlok told them that Evan turns evil and war soon follows. Wade could well take that to mean that killing the boy is the only option. Whatever he does, it’s on them.
They see the HQ, however there are telepathic dampeners, so Psylocke cannot peer inside. He tells her blocking the Shadow King is her job. They enter via an airlock.
In the meantime, Deadpool has freed Evan from his room. As they run through the hallways, Evan asks why he should trust him. How does he know he and X-Force aren’t here to kill him?
Peering around the corner, Deadpool asks if he is some kind of unhinged sociopath covered in guns and swords? That’s not the plan, ok? He won’t let anything—
Angrily, Evan interrupts that he knows what they did! Wade tries to shush him. He isn’t here to kill Evan. Last time they killed him, he was in the dumps like forever! He’s another villain, another liar, like his uncle Cluster!  Evan insists. Deadpool grabs him by the arms and tells him to stop that talk. His Uncle Cluster was a good guy. He died to save Betsy. A guy like that giving his life to save somebody else… He’s no therapist, but that’s growth. If Fantomex can lay down his life for someone, he believes there is hope for all of them.
Yes, Evan, Daken mocks, show respect to the man who shot him in the head, cloned him and raised him in an artificial environment. He has snuck up on them with Blob and Omega Black.
Wade protests that eavesdropping is super rude. He tells Evan to run even as Omega Black’s tentacle pierces him and pumps him full of cancer toxin. He asks Evan for help. The boy doesn’t move.
Daken announces Farouk has Evan’s powers shut down until the boy is ready to do some killing. Oh that’s classy, Wade moans as he swells up from the cancer toxin. He uses his sword to cut off the tentacles.
As Daken rushes him, Deadpool remembers how Logan once asked him how many people he had killed. It’s not the kind of number you want to hear.
He somersaults and lands behind Daken.
How do you tell someone that someday you woke up and realized the only thing getting you out of bed was killing?
He fires his gun point-blank at Daken several times.
Nothing else like it. The world has more colors, more sounds. Every sensation is pure intensity.
The Blob attacks and Wade slips through between his legs.
He was good at telling himself all his targets deserved it. All but one. What they did to that kid last time around. It never fit any rationale he could cook up. It sat there, looking him cold in the eyes all night long.
Omega Black attacks again, but Wade dodges and her tentacles hit Bob.
Deadpool swears he’s gonna make up for that. He’ll die defending the kid! Show Fantomex he’s not the only one with a fully developed character arc!
He faces Daken again. “My name is Wade Wilson. You killed my friend!” He raises his sword. “Prepare to—”
He is zapped in the back by eyebeams. He turns around to see the culprit is Evan with Farouk standing behind him. These people told him the truth, Evan announces. Wade tells him Farouk is in his head. He’s gotta fight it! Farouk announces he is merely helping the child see his true feelings. And he believes what young Evan is trying to say is he doesn’t trust Deadpool.
Mystique awakes in EVA, where AOA Nightcrawler is waiting at her side. She quickly realizes he isn’t her son. He is, but in another place, he explains. She asks him if he knew her there. She was his hero, he replies. Quite different than things turned out here, she muses. Her Kurt and she… the world conspired against what should have been between them. He died before they could fix things. When he returns home, cherish what they have.
His mother is dead, he replies grimly. And she is not the same woman. A negative reflection!
Could she be so completely dissimilar from the mother he loved, she asks. She would like to hear about the world where he son loved her.
It is a world, where her companion, the Blob, killed his wife, is Kurt’s angry reply. Slaughtered her in their home. A world ravaged by the same beast her Brotherhood tries to corrupt!
Apocalypse?  she asks. Followed by Weapon X, he replies. EVA warns him not to listen to her. Weapon X – the same man he is working with here, she points out. The same man who tells him how awful she is? He fixates on the danger of Evan, but overlooks the real danger of Wolverine!
EVA warns that Mystique is a grand manipulator and liar.
Wolverine killed her once, Mystique reveals. Did he tell Kurt that? He kills whoever he wishes as he’s seen with this X-Force. He is a monster here too! Did it never occur to Kurt he wants the power of Evan for himself?
EVA threatens to sedate her.
Mystique continues that nothing of this matters to Kurt, does it? He is here for revenge. To kill the man who slaughtered his wife. She can give him to Kurt…
Elsewhere:
While Evan crouches in the corner, Omega Black examines the tied-up Deadpool, watched by Farouk and Daken. She finds a telepathic dampening device in Deadpool’s ear. To risk coming here with no healing factor, he must really want this kid dead, Daken accuses him. Omega Black extracts the chip, opening his mind for Farouk.
While Deadpool tries to frighten him away Daken tells Evan to put on the Apocalypse armor, before the others come to finish what Wade botched. And they are coming. He warns the boy that, if he isn’t with them, he is at a certain point against them. And he doesn’t want to see that stage of the plan.
What should they do with him? Omega Black asks regarding Wade. Daken orders her to fill his head with cancer and let Evan watch. Farouk suggests she hurry. He’s had a look inside Wade’s head. His companions will be here soon.
In another room, Skinless Man wonders when Wolverine will infiltrate the base. Sabretooth calls him dim. He already has.
As if on cue, Wolverine attacks Creed, who easily swats him aside. Logan lets out the berserker rage and hits back. Omega White plans to sift his psychic energy. Wolverine kicks him in the head.
Skinless Man’s tendrils impale him. Recalling what he did to Fantomex, Logan skewers his guts, the slices Omega Red.
Creed is the only one left standing to tell him it was a bad move coming here on his lonesome. Wolverine jumps at him.
Elsewhere, Psylocke searches for Wade. Scans are unnecessary, as his screams lead her in his direction. She is outside his cell which is guarded by the Blob and establishes telepathic contact with Wade, then turns off his pain receptors. She asks what to expect. Has Evan been turned? He isn’t sure, he replies. What does it mean when a kid rocks back and forth and looks like Damien in Omen?
The Shadow King notices their telepathic exchange and attacks Betsy on the psychic plane. He reminds her how he promised to tear her life apart. He unlocked the Archangel in Warren Worthington, then he killed Fantomex, now the boy Evan is his. All just as he promised. Now, with her life destroyed, he is satiated. Shall they finish up? He rises as a giant before her on the astral plane.
Elsewhere:
Having the upper hand, Logan demands where Evan is. See him in hell, Sabretooth snarls.
Nightcrawler teleports himself and EVA (in her humanoid form) inside. Logan reminds them they were to wait. EVA suddenly attacks him and poisons him. As she turns back to Mystique, she explains it’s the same mutant dampening poison she used on Fantomex.
Nightcrawler apologizes and reminds Logan he came here to get his revenge – by any means…

Final Execution – chapter nine: The Father Who Must Be Killed
A snowy mountain landscape:Naked, Wolverine runs away from a cave which is Apocalypse-shaped and runs towards a voice telling him that Charles put such effort into helping him overcome the furious thing. But not him. He didn’t try to change Logan, but accepts him. He set him free. Free to kill their enemies. Free to do what he does best. And Logan, parading around indignantly that he didn’t enjoy the work… he liked it so much he went on killing behind his back!
Now this boy will become Apocalypse unless Logan ends him. And as their methodology sinks to meet the monsters on their level, their world crumbles.
Logan reaches the speaker: Cyclops, standing at a precipice next to Evan aka Genesis whose face is turned towards the abyss. Can’t he see? It’s all a consequence, Evan remarks. He can see, Cyclops agrees. He was once Apocalypse. He knows that, doesn’t he? He worries about that. Now especially, Evan replies. Could he ascend to stop him?
Does he know what’s going on here? Cyclops asks Logan. What they’ve done to him, what poison they’ve put into his system? Logan orders him to step away from Evan. Cyclops raises his hand in the air and smiles… relax! He’s not going to throw the boy over the cliff. He’ll jump!
Evan jumps and Logan jumps after him. Turning into Apocalypse, Cyclops tells him it’s all part of a greater plan.
Reality: No! Wolverine screams and awakes. He is tied to a chair. Opposite him sits his estranged son Daken. Nasty dream? Daken asks. Take your time. Get it together. He offers Logan a drink and fills two glasses with whiskey. Of course he does, Daken answers his own question. He’s a drunk. What a tough and neat drinker he is! Stumbly, the inebriated man slaughter, claw clown. Who better to run a school for confused kids?
He sets one glass down in front of Logan. He’s not judging. He knows the animal intimately. Turns out the “spasming vengeful maniac” gene gets passed down. He toasts to nature and downs his drink.
Watching him with the hero act always made him feel bad about himself, Daken tells his father. The denial of is nature caused self-loathing. Hating the very thing he was genetically intended to be. How can anyone love anything when they hate themselves?!
Logan murders people and can still call himself a hero… a teacher, a good guy. A gussied up lie! Daken’s not trying to fit anyone’s interpretation of what a man should be. And Logan hates him because he is true to what he is!
He doesn’t hate him, Wolverine finally replies. He’s sad for him. So desperate for his old man to see how good he is. Daken’s pain, his needs don’t mean a damn thing. Nothing does. It’s a dance. Short and frantic, through a brief period of time. They ain’t never gonna get another chance at it. They die and they’re dead forever. Till the end of the universe. And this is how Daken chose for it to be between them. Logan gave him pass after pass—
He gave him?! Daken shouts. Who the hell is he to give him--? He’s his goddamned father! Logan shouts back. And he’s got love for him! But Daken got it all wrong! Everything… he’s making such a damned mess. And all he’s leaving behind is a stain…
They look at each other in silence. A stain… Daken repeats and pours himself another glass. Does he ever think about how it could have been? What it would have been like if Logan had been there to raise him? To really be his father?
Logan looks away. When he was growing up, he used to think about it, Daken continues. A camping trip. A game of catch. His old man teaching him to ride a bike. Instead of those cold bastards beating him. His nannies… it was their job to make him love them, as if they were his mother. Once he did, they’d try and kill him. The only way to save himself was to kill them instead. After the third one, he stopped falling for it. He was seven. And he was in hell, so he had time to think. To dream about what it would have been like to have a mother and father who loved him.
Logan looks at him pained. It should have been different, he admits. He’s more sorry than Daken knows. Yeah well, Daken raises his glass, to regrets.
Elsewhere, Omega Black enjoys beating up Deadpool, like he did to her mother before he severed her head (or so her memory implants tell her). She’s making him wish he really did beat up her mom, Wade jokes and earns himself another beating with the crow bar. He made jokes back then too, she recalls. Does he remember the Engel family? The bedroom had a green carpet. He laughed as he beat and cut her. She kicks him, recalling she hid in the closet watching.
Evan stares at the Apocalypse armor. Wade begs him not to. He doesn’t have to be him, he tells the boy. It’s a choice, all of it. Says the paid killer, Omega Black laughs, Says the maniac!
Daken calls Omega Black and asks her to bring him the boy. Wade calls after Evan to believe him and not listen to them. They’re the bad guys.
On the astral plane, dressed in psychic armor, Psylocke battles the Shadow King, who tells her he could do this for centuries. She realizes he is far more powerful than her. She gives it one last push, the sum of her psionic might and he actually falls. She is about to kill him for good and then hesitates. What terrible new thing will that release? What new curse on her soul?
She’s done killing, she announces. She will suffer him in her mind, jailed, but she will not kill again. Such a kind gesture, he mocks and attacks with his psionic sword. How will she make such choices once her psyche is shattered?
Psylocke finds herself back in her body and has no idea where she is… or who she is.
The AoA Blob enters the aquarium, calling out why Mystique wanted to meet him here. This some kinky party time thing? He heard she gets around. So what? Figures she wants to turn on the Freddie Dukes cheese doodle express.
Someone blue does step from the shadows… And Nightcrawler thinks that he is doing all this for her.
Looks like he mixed up which blue-skinned lady wants the big ride, Blob mocks as Kurt attacks him with both swords, neither of which hurt Blob’s hide. Sorry, nothing gets inside ol’ Fred Dukes, ‘less he wants, he remarks as he swats Nightcrawler aside. Just asks most of his wife.
Kurt crashes against a window that breaks, letting in water and a shark. Sleeping with a man’s wife is rotten, Blob remarks, but he ate Nightcrawler’s. Ate legs, face, ate everything!
Perhaps he is still hungry? Kurt grins. He teleports himself and the shark into Blob’s stomach and teleports himself out again. “Linda sends her regards, you gruesome pig!” he tells him.
Blob slowly dies, devoured from within. For Kurt, his death rattle is the most beautiful thing he’s ever heard. Makes it all worthwhile.
EVA addresses him. He’s had his revenge. Time to pay for it.
Elsewhere, Daken remarks that he drank the whole bottle while they caught up. Chip off the old block, eh? Wolverine tells him he can stop. They can start over, it’s up to them!
He’s been considering it, Daken admits. Logan makes some good points. Bu he’s about to cross the point of no return. In fact, he already has. A hatch opens beneath Logan and he lands in a water tank. He sees through a window that Daken is watching with Evan, telling him that all the years no one could kill the old man. Logan shouts at Evan to get away.
They try and try and the little creep heals and heals. The secret to killing Wolverine is frighteningly simple.
Wolverine claws at the window, in vain. Water fills the tank.
You drown him. It’ll take some time, but deprive the brain of oxygen long enough and it suffocates and dies. No healing that. Would Evan kill Daken to save him? He hits the boy. When he doesn’t react, Daken turns more violent, telling him you watch him die as he watches you!
Crouching in his prison, Deadpool hums ‘99 bottles of my blood and teeth on the floor’… Omega Black comes in carrying the unconscious Evan. He’s alive, she tells Wade. She stopped Daken before he killed him.
Wade tries to calm Evan, who moans they can’t stay here. He turns to the armor, explaining he is drowning Wolverine! He’s crazy! He’ll kill them all! Unless he does it.
Wade insists he can’t kill Wolverine. He’ll get them out. It’s the only way these capers go. He’ll get them out and they’ll beat the Brotherhood… he’s done it a million times. He begs Evan to stop. This ends badly! They’ve been warned! If he does it this ends so badly! He has to stop!
Stop? Evan asks, wearing the armor and glowing with energy. He’s just started.

Final Execution – chapter ten: From the Cradle to the Grave
Looking at a screen, Daken announces that Evan finally put the Apocalypse suit on. Days of mind games when all he needed was a swift kick in the ass. He’s been telling Creed all along.
He looks at the water tank in which his father, Wolverine, is slowly drowning. Daken informs him that, next up, Farouk gets inside the head of Daken’s new pet, Apocalypse, and takes total control. Then things get… bad. Evan’s going to annihilate Wolverine’s school. Kill his students. Kill his friends. Daken’ll make sure the world knows that Wolverine’s kill crew is the reason this new Apocalypse is stomping around exacting vengeance on his students. They’ll be seen for what they are – the villains.
Wolverine claws at the tank’s walls to no avail. Daken turns around. It was important his father see that he broke Evan. That putting the armor on was his choice. Bad people do bad things; it’s born into them. No matter how they negotiate themselves, their true nature will always rise to the surface.
An amnesiac Psylocke stumbles through the corridors of the Brotherhood’s headquarters, trying to remember who she is. She tries to calm down and visualize a mental door. She turns the key and the information hits her like a revelation. She is Elizabeth Braddock and put herself into a state of self-induced amnesia to allow her mind an escape from the astral plane. She decides to never do that again.
Omega White finds her, carrying the corpse of his brother, Omega Red. She and her people did that to his brother, he shouts at her. Slaughtered him! Betsy tells him he is confused, his head full of lies. He refuses to listen and threatens to psychically drain her.
Elsewhere, EVA in her humanoid form attacks the AoA Nightcrawler for his betrayal. Kurt claims he was going back to help X-Force. Once Blob was dead!
EVA tries to impale him, refusing to listen to any rationalizations. He teleports. She has overheard him long enough to calculate his patterns. She manages to pierce his chest when he rematerializes. Angrily, she states that for revenge he jeopardized their entire world! Whatever ethical fiber he believes himself made of is a lie. He is a selfish coward!
He implores her that he had to make sure he got him. Please understand! She understands none of this, EVA replies. One day he hopes she does and learns to forgive him, he announces and teleports away.
Evan, now dressed in the Apocalypse armor, chases after the Skinless Man, deciding there is only so much ugliness before you have to face it. That’s what Wolverine could see, why he killed those people. You must see a thing for what it is and, when you see evil, you end it before it spreads.
Skinless Man shows him a container with a heart in it, telling him they can barter. It’s Fantomex’s heart. Evan can fix him. Let him go and he can have his uncle Cluster back. Evan hesitates and reaches for the container. Skinless Man shatters it before he can reach it. Now that was offhanded of him, he laughs, but it was the last joke, he promises.
Bummer, his last joke and he just butchered the punch line, Deadpool announces as he impales him. That’s for Fantomex, he informs the corpse. Probably goes without saying.
How can people be so horrible? Eva shouts. Wade tells him to take it easy. Calm blue ocean, say it with him. How can people be this decayed, Evan screams, glowing with energy.
Daken tries to reach an escape helicopter but, thanks to an explosion, that part of the platform with the chopper falls off.
Where is his sweet girl? Farouk asks in the chaos. They aren’t done yet. Yes, he is, Omega White tells him. He already killed Braddock. How dare he? Farouk asks. Omega White calls him a fool for letting her break free and making her exceptionally angry. He absorbs Farouk’s psychic energy – and he consists solely of psychic energy.
Does it hurt? Omega White, controlled by Psylocke, asks. Trapped in the body of Omega White, the Shadow King demands to be released and for her to face him with some dignity! On the astral plane! Against a true Omega telepath. She takes him out with her psychic knife.
She explains that she erased the artificial mind of Omega White so there wouldn’t be a consciousness for him to manipulate. He’ll be locked inside this spectral vegetable forever… but he’ll be alive.
Logan awakes from Deadpool, giving him the kiss of life. Logan gets up and Deadpool announces that he wasn’t worried for a second. Everybody knew he wasn’t going to die. Everybody? Logan asks. “Them watching us,” Deadpool points outward… and finally at a security camera. What did he think he meant? Where’s Evan, Wolverine asks as Wade helps him up. He’s gone but… angry, Wade admits. Logan orders him to find Evan and Betsy and get the hell out of here. Where’s he going? Wade asks and receives no reply.
Evan muses he has the power to protect his friends at school… to protect himself. Psylocke is relieved to find him, She tells him they need to get out before he swats her aside, not fooled. She takes on her true form as Mystique, and professes it wasn’t her idea. She is a bad person, he tells her earnestly. She set this up. Set up his uncle Cluster!
Nightcrawler teleports in. “Come, mother,” he tells her and teleports away with her. There is nothing for either of them here. Nothing but death.
Daken lies in the rubble. Perfect, he mutters. Kid goes nuts a minute before scheduled. He curses the Skinless Man. Can’t count on a Brit to get anything done. Right, he states as he sees Wolverine crouching on the remnants of a wall. Good, he got out. It’s better this way! he shouts defiantly. More honest! Daken unsheathes his claws.
Logan notes that he is also dropping a heavy dose of pheromones, trying to calm Wolverine down. He’s scared… he should be. Wolverine attacks him while trying to suppress his berserker rage. It’s on him to deal with Daken, not the animal.
Daken lashes out, tearing into Logan’s face, in a berserker rage. He hacks away wildly. He’s gonna wish he drowned, Daken vows and slams Logan’s head against the wall. Logan notes Daken’s long gone, lost to the animal. Daken goads him: why is he holding back?
Logan realizes there can be only one resolution. The hard one. Okay, he replies and slashes Daken. Recalling Daken’s question, if he ever thinks of how it could have been, he holds Daken’s face down in a puddle of water. He imagines raising his son with his wife. Campfires, teaching his son how to ride a bike, playing baseball… watching him go away to his first prom with his girlfriend… He holds him until Daken stops resisting and drowns.
Logan turns Daken around and cradles the corpse. He’s sorry, he moans. He didn’t protect him better. It’s his fault… He looks up to Evan who joined him and tells him this is the only way it could have ended. He didn’t have a choice.
Sure he did, Sabretooth announces and claps his hands in mock applause. And he chose to kill his own son. He tells Evan to remember that. He knows Logan will. All the cuts he’s given him over the years—here’s the deepest. This right here is why he set all his motion. Had to put in some hours with the boy. Desperate for some fatherly admiration, kid was a snap to manipulate. Now, Logan might live a long life, but he ain’t never gonna sleep a full night without this gurglin’ up. He ain’t never gonna forget this. He wishes him many long years reliving his son’s face as he drowns him.
Evan hits him and calls him a monster. He deserves to die! he announces and smashes him in the face. Sabretooth goads him to go on. Do it! Let him watch!
Logan stops Evan and tells him to look around. This is revenge. This is what it gets you. Getting away, Sabretooth laughs that he knows what it got him. He likes it.
Logan sinks down. It’s all a mess. Ain’t a damned thing solved. Does he see that? For the love of God, tell him he sees that…
Evan carries him to EVA. Psylocke greets the boy relived. He places Wolverine on a bed. On two others lie the bodies of Omega White and Fantomex. Betsy look back at the destroyed base then sits down in the pilot’s seat and orders EVA to get them out of here. She has left her sword behind.
Wolverine daydreams of a life in which he raised his son.
