Scott was in Central Park. He took out a small intercom in the shape of an X. "Nothing here. What about you guys? Over."
Storm was walking around downtown Manhattan. She saw no signs of chaos. "Same here. What about you, Logan? Over."
Logan was in the Lower East Side. "Nope. I think-"
Suddenly, Logan heard a loud roar and a woman's scream. Logan quickly pressed a button on his intercom. "Never mind. Seems like something's going on here in the Lower East Side. Come quick."
Storm heard Logan's message and quickly hailed a cab. "Central Park- make it fast."
Cyclops quickly jogged to the closest sidewalk as Storm waited impatiently.
"Thanks, Storm," he said as he entered the yellow taxi.
"Could you make one last stop at the Lower East Side?"
The cab driver nodded, and several minutes, they were there. Scott paid the driver as Storm quickly got out and scanned the area.
Logan jogged over to the site where he heard the crash and saw a huge monster covered in a Spiderman costume. One of his limbs held a woman upside down. Spiderman opened its pincers and was about to devour the woman when Logan jumped on top of the monster. The monster let go of the woman as she ran away with her purse. The monster roared in anger and flung Logan against the wall.
"Logan!" exclaimed Storm over his intercom, "Where are you?"
Logan heard the voice and held onto the wall as he took out his intercom. "I'm behind an apartment building. It has-"
One of the monster's limbs had taken Logan's intercom. Before Logan could grab it, the monster crushed it. Then it climbed up the fire escapes until it reached the roof.
"You're not getting away that easily," growled Logan as he grabbed the closest fire escape. He ran up the ladders as several civilians from the other apartment stared at him. When Logan reached the roof, the monster was nowhere in site. Logan walked toward the edge of the roof. Suddenly, Logan heard a loud roar and turned around just in time to block the monster's kick.
"You asked for it!" screamed Logan as he popped his claws out.
"Logan! Logan!" yelled Storm. Cyclops quickly walked over to Storm.
"He said he was behind an apartment building."
"Great...that narrows it down to almost 1,000. We'll never be able to find-" Suddenly, both heard a loud crash and turned around to see Logan flying through the sky.
"Never mind," said Scott as he and Storm ran towards the building.
Logan skidded across the roof. Logan slowly got up and saw the monster leap onto the roof with a loud bang. Logan roared and charged at the monster, who gracefully flipped away. Logan raised his right hand and tried to punch the monster, but wound up punching the roof instead. The monster grabbed Logan and banged him against the roof three times before Logan pierced one of the monster's limbs. It quickly let go of Logan, who scrambled to his feet.
"Logan!" screamed Cyclops, who arrived on the roof, "Professor Xavier told you not to-"
"Yeah, I know! I tried being friendly, but he just won't cooperate!" screamed Logan. The monster was angry-angry at Logan for disturbing him and harming him. It was seeking revenge. It charged at Logan, but before it could reach him, Cyclops shot a thin optic beam at the monster. It turned around and charged toward Cyclops, but this time, Storm, who had flown herself up, threw bolts of lightning at it. It dodged all of them.
'How do we knock this guy down?' thought Logan angrily. He charged at the monster, who-to Logan's surprise-wrapped him up in a strong web net. Logan struggled against the strands. Cyclops was about to shoot an optic beam at the net when the monster quickly grabbed Logan-who was still struggling-and flung him against Cyclops. Both of them fell off the roof. Storm quickly flew down to rescue her team mates. She quickly grabbed them by their collars just before they hit the sidewalk. She dropped them gently onto the ground. Cyclops got up and aimed a thin beam at Wolverine, who broke free from the net.
"I'm gonna kill that freak!" roared an angry Logan as he climbed up the fire escapes again.
"Wait, Logan!" screamed Cyclops, "Storm, fly me up there."
Storm nodded as she grabbed Cyclops. All of them reached the roof at the same time and met a stunning sight: The monster was covered with a thin layer of ice. Standing behind him was a young teenager who raised his index finger and blew on it. He looked up from his work and saw the three X-Men staring at him. Next to him, there was a young female teenager standing in front of a large sleek jet.
"Bobby, Rogue!" said Scott angrily, "Professor Xavier specifically told you guys that you couldn't come!"
"What?" said Bobby, "Should I miss out on all the fun? Besides, you guys seemed like you needed some assistance."
"We were handling the situation just fine-"
"Yeah: getting your asses kicked by this dude sounds to me like your handling the situation really well," replied a sarcastic Bobby.
Cyclops was about to speak when Storm intervened: "Cyclops, he's right. He did help us stop Spiderman."
"Besides," said Logan, "we have to get this thing out of here before the ice melts and he starts another rampage."
Cyclops sighed and reluctantly agreed: "Fine. Come on. Let's get onto the X-jet."
Logan and Bobby carried the monster to a cage and locked him up while Storm and Cyclops sat in front of the X-Jet.
Several minutes later, the X-Men had gathered around Professor Xavier in their laboratory. Rogue and Bobby were worried that they would receive another lecture from the professor. Instead, he told them that he felt that they were mature enough to join the elder group of X-Men. Both of the young teenagers were delighted. Now, Professor Xavier was staring at a sample of blood that he had extracted from the monster under a compound light microscope while everyone-except for Cyclops-surrounded him
Cyclops stared at the monster that they had warmed slightly in order to melt the thin layer of ice that Bobby had covered it in. It seemed unconscious-for the moment. Scott pressed a button, and a metal door divided the monster from the X-Men. Cyclops turned around and walked towards Professor Xavier.
"Well, Professor?" asked Cyclops. Professor Xavier took his eyes off the blood sample and looked at Scott.
"It seems that his cells are mutating rapidly. He can no longer think like a human, and his mind is always blood-thirsty."
"How long will the process last?" asked Rogue.
"Fortunately, it seems that there are also a large number of cells that retain their human properties. Thus, it might take several days, but no more than that. If we're lucky, it might only last several hours."
"What do we do until-"
Logan was interrupted by a loud bang. All of the X-Men turned around. Cyclops placed his fingers on his visor while Logan popped his claws out. Rogue took off her glove while Bobby covered his body in a thin layer of ice. They braced themselves as the monster tore the door down. Cyclops turned the dial on his visor and aimed a beam at the monster. This time, the monster was ready because its spider sense blared. It jumped onto the ceiling and flung one of its limbs at Cyclops, who was slammed against the ceiling. Bobby tried to aim a thin beam of ice at it, but the monster dodged it. It landed on top of Logan, who tried to shake the monster off. Bobby tried to aim another beam at the monster, but at the last moment, the monster jumped off as the beam hit Logan, who froze. Storm (who couldn't use her powers inside) tried to follow the monster and prevent him from escaping, but it wrapped her in a thick layer of webbing. It grabbed her and flung her against Professor Xavier, and both of them slammed against the wall. Rogue slowly advanced behind the monster while Bobby-who didn't realize Rogue was behind-charged in front of it. It flipped onto the ceiling as Rogue and Bobby collided with each other.
Unfortunately, Rogue's hands touched Bobby's face, and she absorbed him, who slumped to the floor. The monster landed onto the floor and advanced on Rogue, who was kneeling next to Bobby and crying. When Rogue looked up, the monster stopped, and visions of Mary Jane, Aunt May, and Gwen Stacy flashed into its mind. It roared in anger and confusion as it swung away from Rogue and out the door.
