Doesn't it ever wake you in the middle of the night? The feeling that someday they will pass that foolish law, or one just like it, and come for you and your children?

It does, indeed.

What do you do when you wake up to that?

I feel a great swell of pity for the poor soul who comes to that school looking for trouble.

You homo sapiens and your guns.

That's enough Eric.

Let them go.

Why not come out where I can see you, Charles?

Xavier

What do you want her for?

Can't you read my mind? [tapping his helmet] And what now, save the girl? You'll have to kill me Charles, and what would that accomplish? Let them pass that law and they'll have you in chains with a number burned into your forehead!

Westchester, New York. My people brought you here for medical attention.

I don't need medical attention.

Prof. Xavier

Yes, of course. [Storm, Cyclops, and Jean enter.] Ah — Logan, I'd like you to meet Ororo Munro, also called Storm. This is Scott Summers, also called Cyclops. They saved your life. I believe you've already met Dr. Jean Grey. You are in my School for the Gifted — for mutants. You'll be safe here from Magneto.

What's a Magneto?

Prof. Xavier

A very powerful mutant. He believes that a war is brewing between mutants and the rest of humanity. I've been following his activities for some time. The man who attacked you is an associate of his called Sabretooth.

Sabretooth? [looks at Storm] Storm. [looks at Xavier] What do they call you — Wheels? This is the stupidest thing I ever heard.

Storm, fry him!

Oh, yes! A bolt of lightning into a huge copper conductor. I thought you lived at a school.

Senator Kelly

Here's a girl in Illinois who can walk through walls. Now what's to stop her from walking into a bank vault, or the White House, or [gestures toward the gallery] into their houses?

Senator, please-

Senator Kelly

And there are even rumors, Miss Grey, of mutants so powerful that they can enter our minds and control our thoughts, taking away our God-given free will. Now I think the American people deserve the right to decide if they want their children to be in school with mutants. To be taught by mutants! Ladies and gentlemen, the truth is that mutants are very real, and that they are among us. We must know who they are, and above all, what they can do!

Mystique

People like you are the reason I was afraid to go to school as a child.
