Two weeks ago, the entity known worldwide as the Phoenix aided the Brotherhood of Mutants in leveling the Worthington Research Complex on Alcatraz Island. The attack was a broad-fisted one, led by the Master of Magnetism himself in an attempt to stop the production of the Worthington Labs-created serum known simply as the Mutant Cure. With Phoenix on his side, Magneto succeeded. But, the costs of his success were gravely steep.
The island’s non-mutant defense -some thousand armed men- were literally turned to dust by the woman’s excessive use of power. What Brotherhood members were not shot with the Cure likely faced the same painful fate as their non-mutant brothers. In the end, it was only due to the strength and unity of the X-Men that Phoenix was stopped and anyone survived.
The results of the battle were catastrophic, leaving thousands of non-mutants and mutants dead and hundreds of mutants Cured. Including the Master of Magnetism himself.
Two weeks have passed since that fateful battle, and the world is still reeling. A recent news broadcast has revealed that Worthington’s Mutant Cure isn’t permanent: mutants worldwide are regaining their powers at a rapid rate. Sources indicate that Cured mutants are regaining their powers at an exponential rate- their mutant prowess increasing!
Chaos reigns in our world as activists against mutant rights march in the streets, demanding that the government take action now. The world’s governments struggle to keep the peace even as more and more attention is placed on those that are deemed different by common standards. Suddenly, mutants aren’t the only ones that are under scrutiny.
The day-to-day struggle to simply have the freedom to visit the local market has intensified, leaving the mutant community, and even some surprised superhumans, bristling. There is electricity in the air that seems to hum with the promise of conflict, of war.
Where will you be when the vengeful rise, looking to punish those that have marked them as lesser beings? Will you fight for your rights, your freedoms? Will you stand for your beliefs in the riptide of confusion and chaos?
As the battle continues, where will you stand?
