| Inside Arcade’s Murderworld, Adam-X and Shatterstar battle each other for survival. Adam-X finally explains that he’s fighting to save an innocent’s life, and when Arcade reveals the captive, Shatterstar recognizes her as his wife, Windsong. Tired of Arcade’s games, Adam-X and Shatterstar storm the complex and break into his control room, where Windsong is being held in explosive-equipped manacles and will be killed unless Adam-X and Shatterstar fight to the death. Faced with no way out, Shatterstar stabs his own sword through his chest to kill himself, prompting Arcade to gleefully reveal that they don’t actually have Windsong captive: it was a hologram all along. Adam-X tries to kill Arcade, but Shatterstar recovers and beats him to it; unfortunately, this Arcade is merely a robotic decoy. They escape, and Murderworld is deconstructed. Adam-X learns that the employer who hired Arcade to kill him is named “Milbury,” and Shatterstar explains that he knew Arcade’s plan was a ruse because he’s never met his wife. Adam-X and Shatterstar part ways and Shatterstar is picked up by Rictor, who has finished buying supplies. At Camp Verde, Tempo announces she is leaving and going back to college; Domino arrives and joins X-Force; Siryn decides to go home to Ireland to clear her head a bit, and asks Warpath if he wants to go with her, to which he enthusiastically agrees. In Ireland, Black Tom and Juggernaught arrive at Cassidy Keep, kill the family lawyer who has taken up residence there and take it for themselves. |

| The kill-for-sport club of the Upstarts begins a new competition, the Younghunt, targeting all still-living former members of both the New Mutants and the Hellions. In the Brazilian rainforest, the Fenris twins capture Magma and attack the Nova Roma refugee camp in pursuit of Empath before being struck down by Moonstar. Meanwhile, the New Warriors’ Justice has befriended Shinobi Shaw in order to decipher what Shaw and his Upstart associates are up to. Later, appealing to their friendship, Shaw requests that Justice bring former Hellion (and current girlfriend of Justice and member of the New Warriors) Firestar to him to aid in his playing of the Younghunt. Near the Guthrie farm in Kentucky, Siena Blaze defeats and captures the vacationing Boomer and Cannonball. By the time X-Force arrives, they can find no clues as to where their teammates have been taken. Cannonball’s sister, Paige, is revealed to have yet-unelaborated mutant powers. Those who have already been captured by the Upstarts are revealed to be held captive by a mysterious psionic overseer known as the Gamesmaster. He berates the Upstarts (and Fitzroy in particular) for performing poorly in their contests and encourages them to prove their mettle in the Younghunt. Later, the Gamesmaster senses that Shinobi Shaw plans to betray him. The Guthrie farm soon comes under attack by a bruised-ego Fitzroy, who wishes to take Rictor and Warpath and leave without a conflict; the members of X-Force draw their weapons. |
