Summary
Boomer goes to give Sabretooth milk, but her friends hold an intervention in the kitchen, while Xavier and Storm observe. Caliban replays Sabretooth and the Marauders killing Morlocks (Uncanny 211), but she replies that Caliban and Roberto had both been villains in their turn. She believes in second chances. She doesn't want to give up on Sabretooth like she did her father.
They tells her she can't be friends both with Sabretooth and with them; they can't let her put her life in danger. She is about to quit the team, when Xavier comes in and convinces her that if Magneto couldn't reform, then Sabretooth can't be trusted. She goes to say good-bye to him, but he doesn't show himself. He has reverted to a crazed state.
In the South Pacific, Holocaust kills an island-full of people, then turns on Shaw (thought dead since X-Factor 67), who gives as good as he got and then partners with him.
