Summary

  Sabretooth has rejoined the Hound program, but with his own twist: he kills the mutant recruits instead of bringing them in alive. Even Stone's threats don't deter him, so Omega Red is sent to deal with him. He wants to trade Sabretooth for the carbonadium synthesizer he needs to stabilize his death factor. They tussle, and Sabretooth finally drives Omega Red off.

  Havok has had Dark Beast treat Polaris, Forge, and Wildchild. The two have different agendas, and are suspicious of each other.

  Unconcious, Forge dream-walks. A raven (as in Darkholme) tells him to explore the hearts of others to find his destiny.

  Mystique is also Brickman's wife Mallory. She pretends to have been kidnapped by Sabretooth.

  Sabretooth catches Stone in his human form, slashes him, and wants to be taken to Bowser to renegotiate their deal so he gets to kill who he wants.
