Page 4 of 4
[Storm arrives and walks to Logan.]

Logan, is that you?

Shhh. [Storm stumbles further to Logan, who sniffs the air] The other one ain't far away.

[walks up behind him]

Come on. We have to regroup.

I know but there's a problem. [turns and stabs Storm with his claws] You're not part of the group! [Storm attempts to attack Wolverine, later reveals herself to be Mystique in disguise and collapses to the ground before shifting back to her original form.]

[Processor X and Magneto play a game of chess at Magneto's cell]

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.

[halts the game, sighs]

Why do you come here, Charles?

Why do you ask questions to which you already know the answer? [motions the guard to take Xavier away.]

Ah yes, your continuing search for hope. [pause] You know this plastic prison of theirs won't hold me forever. The war is still coming, Charles, and I intend to fight it, by any means necessary.

And I will always be there, old friend.
[Erik concedes the game, knocking over his king]

[Professor Xavier, Jean, Cyclops, and Storm go over Wolverine's x-ray]

The metal is an alloy called adamantium. Supposedly indestructible. It's surgically grafted onto his entire skeleton.

How could he have survived a procedure like that?

His mutation. He has uncharted regenerative capability, which enable him to heal rapidly. It also makes his age impossible to determine. He could very well be older than you, Professor.

Who did this to him?

He doesn't know nor can he remember anything about his life before it happened.

Experimentation on mutants. It's not unheard of, but I have never seen anything like this before.

Emcee
[before Stu begins a cage-fight with Wolverine]

Whatever you do, don't hit him in the balls.

Stu

You said "anything goes".

Emcee

Anything goes, but... he'll take it personally.

[At the base of the Statue of Liberty]

Magnificent, isn't she?

I've seen it.

I first saw her in 1949. America was going to be the land of tolerance. Of peace.

Are you gonna kill me?

[pause]

Yes.

Why?

Because there is no land of tolerance. There is no peace. Not here, nor anywhere else. Women, children, whole families destroyed simply because they were born different from those in power. Well, after tonight, the world's powerful will be just like us. They will return home as brothers. As mutants. Our cause will be theirs. Your sacrifice will mean our survival. I'll understand if that comes as small consolation.

[to Senator Robert Kelly]

Are you a God-fearing man, Senator? It's such a strange phrase. I've always thought of God as a teacher. As a bringer of light, wisdom and understanding. You see, l think what you really are afraid of is me. Me and my kind. The brotherhood of mutants. It's not so surprising, really. Mankind has always feared what it doesn't understand. Well, don't fear God, Senator, and certainly don't fear me. Not any more.
