Unstoppable Part Five

Story  on  Interior Page(s)
Subject Matter
Genres: superhero
Character(s): Sylatin; Aghanne; Dafi
First Line: One of them is dead.
Synopsis: Aghanne and Dafi discuss their worries about their plans. The remaining X-Men and S.W.O.R.D. head to their next targets. Kruun revives Cyclops to interrogate him while Armor and Wolverine are captured, and Beast and Agent Brand further analyze the prophecy. Emma reestablishes contact with Scott as Beast and Brand reveal that the prophecy is recent, and reads more like a plan. It is revealed all of this was plan -- and that Scott's powers work when he blasts Kruun, tearing a hole in the roof of his tower, summoning the rest of the X-Men to him for the final attack.

Unstoppable Part Six

Story  on  Interior Page(s)
Subject Matter
Genres: superhero
Character(s): Sylatin; Aghanne
First Line: Here's where we stand.
Synopsis: The X-Men and their allies launch their final assault. Ord gets through the soldiers, and tackles Aghanne. Cyclops orders Colossus into the power source. Aghanne meets Colossus there, and he realizes it was her intent that he destroy the Breakworld all along. On the surface, Beast and Shadowcat can't figure out how the missile is controlled. Shadowcat phases into it, and more than a mile in she finds a hollow space at the tip, but not controls. As the "missile" fires they see that it has no thrusters- it is not a missile, but a bullet headed straight for Earth with Shadowcat inside.

Genres: superhero
Character(s): Mega-Sentinel; Aghanne
First Line: You can't say "I love New York."
Synopsis: Colossus and Aghanne fight in the reactor while the X-Men and Agent Brand's team fight other Breakworld forces outside. Colossus starts to shift back to flesh inside the reactor to prevent Aghanne from using him to destroy the Breakworld, when Ord enters without protection and rips off her helmet. Colossus kills Aghanne and tells the dying Ord that he saved his world. Cyclops and Emma chase the bullet, trying to save Shadowcat, but she's bonded to the bullet and cannot leave. With no options left, she phases the entire bullet through the planet Earth, seemingly at the cost of her life.
