I'm sure you all noticed the helicopter on the lawn. Some of you might have seen Val Cooper emerging from it. She came with some exceptionally bad news.

Succinctly, Magneto is currently orbiting the Earth in a Russian space station, in control of a satellite-based laser weapons system. If the US and Russian governments don't fulfill the first of his demands - releasing all mutants they currently have in custody - in a week, he's going to destroy Washington and Moscow.

Forge, I need you in the Situation Room right now. Everyone else, I need you down here in 30 minutes, once Ororo and I have a basic plan to present.

Perfect. This is exactly what I wanted to hear after returning from my vacation. Good thing I didn't end up extending my stay in Germany any longer.

How the HELL did this happen?

You know, while I was looking for a reason to get out of English class, this was not the one I would have chosen. On my way down.

The Russians weaponized space. Well, that's about two hundred different treaties that have just been shredded into confetti.

There are so many Internet memes I could use here. I'm trying to be good.

About to go make sure Remy's up to speed, though he has a knack for always knowing things five minutes ahead of me.

Anything we can be doing from here?
