Synopsis
Lorna is attacked by a Sentinel. Alex is paralyzed by his terrible and destructive new powers as the X-Men try to figure out how to help him. The Egyptian authorities arrive, and the Living Pharaoh tells them to arrest the X-Men for the destruction of an ancient temple. Alex takes off in the conflict and is attacked by a Sentinel. Learning of the attack on Lorna, Iceman and Beast head back to the States to investigate. They catch a newscast where the son of Bolivar Trask proclaims to the world that the Sentinels are once again active and hunting for mutants.
