Story Title: Night of Masques
By: Chris Claremont
Artists: Adam Kubert & Tim Townsend
Synopsis: Six months have passed since the High Evolutionary tried to eliminate mutant kind. In the catacombs beneath a building in Venice, Italy, Phoenix shows Cable a room full of treasure that she always meant to show her deceased husband, Cyclops. She tells Cable that his war with Apocalypse is over and, before he starts a new one, he should see the world he strives to protect. The two go outside into the streets to celebrate the Carnival when the Beast, who set up an elaborate stunt to sweep Jean off her feet, comes and scoops the woman up. After Beast’s little show, the two talk and discover that both have been summoned to Venice by Gambit. A group of men called the Shockwave Riders, members of the Neo, attack the X-Men. Storm comes in and saves Jean, but the Riders use their powers to send Cable’s techno-organic virus out of control. As Jean protects him, another Rider uses his powers to steal some memories of Cyclops from Jean. Gambit arrives, as the Neo are defeated. The Neo escape, except for one, who wills himself to death. Jean creates a mind link with him to get her memories back but, if she does not return to her body before he dies, she will die with him.
