Summary

  In Alexandria, Egypt, the Dark Riders hunt down Foxbat (survival of the fittest).

  In Westchester, Cable spends some quality time in the Danger Room with dad, who encourages him to develop his TK. Scott and Jean try to get closer to him and Domino, but they are wary. They all breakfast together with the X-Men (Ororo: "Cable! How nice to see you when it does not require ducking.")

  Cable tells Storm the Morlocks are alive (iss. 15), so they go down the sewers and run into Caliban, who is being chased by the Dark Riders. Much fighting. Storm vs Hurricane (no contest), Domino vs Lifeforce (a brick luckily drops on her head), Cable vs Spyne (he follows dad's advice). Hardrive ports in and says Gauntlet shouldn't have started this fight. He ports the Dark Riders away, leaving Cable wondering who is leading them now, and planning to use Caliban to find them again.
