Brief Description:
The X-Men find themselves prisoners of the subterranean mutants called Morlock, whose leader, Callisto, intends to marry the Angel. An attempt to break loose ends with Storm being infected with an illness, thanks to the Morlock, Plague, and the X-Men being imprisoned again. They are joined by Caliban, holding the deathly sick Kitty Pryde in his arms. Kitty had promised Caliban to stay with him if he helped the X-Men. Caliban begs Callisto to help Kitty and, when she refuses, he tells the X-Men that the only way for them to get out is to challenge Callisto’s leadership. Nightcrawler intends to do so, but Storm overrules him and takes up the challenge. She surprises everyone by ruthlessly winning the duel, almost killing Callisto in the process. In the meantime, in Alaska, Scott Summers and Madelyne Pryor are getting very close on a date; so close, in fact, that Scott comes clear, both about having been in love with a woman who’s a look-alike to Madelyne and about being a mutant. After an initial shock, Madelyne copes quite well and is clearly as besotted with Scott as he is with her. In Washington, Mystique has a nightmare where she is chased and eventually killed by Jean Grey and Jason Wyngarde. Awake, she and Destiny are both sure that someone is toying with them. To make matters worse, the same someone seems to be responsible for their foster daughter, Rogue, leaving them without a word of explanation.
