The X-Project

Cannonball, Beast, Polaris, Husk - I want the four of you suited up and in the Situation Room for a complete briefing in twenty minutes. Preliminary details are a bit sketchy - the Professor's still on the phone. Beast, you'll remember Carter Ryking, but for the rest of you, Ryking is a former patient of the Professor's. He's an electrokinetic who had to be institutionalized because of the effect of his powers on his brain chemistry. Something happened this afternoon at the facility where he's being treated. What we know for certain is that he broke out, injuring several people in the process, including his primary-care physician. We need to find him before he hurts anyone else, or himself.

Husk, you're along on this run for training purposes, and because of that rubber husk of yours. I'm thinking it might come in handy. Polaris, Ryking is an alpha-class electrokinetic - give some thought as to strategy while you're getting ready to go, and fill me in on the plane. Beast, the Professor will tell you as soon as he knows if there's anything in particular you need to bring in terms of medical supplies.

Jetstream, we obviously need the 'Bird ready to go ASAP.
