Brief Description:
The former X-Man, Angel, is kidnapped and his girlfriend, Candy, is attacked and almost murdered. Candy manages to place a call to Professor X, though, and he sends Nightcrawler to save her. Later, the X-Men follow the kidnapper’s trail into the subway and even further down, where they are attacked by strangely deformed people. Eventually, they find the Angel as a prisoner of Callisto, leader of these Morlocks, mutants all. Callisto intends to keep Angel as her love-slave. The X-Men attack but find themselves eventually overwhelmed. Kitty, in the meantime, has scouted ahead and become separated from the others. When she eavesdrops on Callisto and some other Morlocks, one of them, named Plague, infects her with a fast-working illness. The delirious Kitty is found by the sad Morlock, Caliban, who tries to help her. Realizing that he cannot cure her, he intends to ask Callisto and Plague to help, believing that then Kitty will stay with him out of gratitude. In the meantime, Sebastian Shaw is informed by his aide, Tessa, that Emma Frost fell into a coma without any discernible reason.
