Summary

  Bishop gets Deathbird out of their crashed craft and struggles with his feelings for her. Together, they fight off native slavers. Bishop gets harpooned, so they take refuge with Karel, whose planet was attacked and who came here to find a powerful weapon: a metal-eating virus.

  In Alaska, the original X-Men pack to leave. But Scott says the realtor called and the sale of the house is off, probably because they were revealed as mutants. A brick is thrown through the window. Then the psi-plane explodes (X-Men II:77), leaving Jean catatonic.

  A Chnitt attacks Deathbird, and she shoots it through the eyes. They go across a dangerous desert to a smuggler's city with a warp gate. The Chnitt mother-ship descends to stop Karel. Bishop sends him and Deathbird to the gate, while he uses a metal-eating charge against the ship, which explodes and destroys the gate. At the last minute, Deathbird stays behind to be with Bishop.

  Note: the story continues in Team X: 2000 one-shot.
