Meeting Deadpool Again 1/2

Cyclops darted forward and supported Phoenix Girl.

"Are you okay?"

His concerned tone carried a hint of urgency.

The next moment, Cyclops glared at Hayato, thinking he had pulled something.

It was one thing for an ordinary person to glare at someone. But when Cyclops glared, was that a joke?

Watch out for the red lasers going "pew pew pew" and killing you.

Hayato raised both hands and shrugged, indicating it had nothing to do with him.

"I'm fine."

Phoenix Girl held her forehead, her features scrunched up in pain like an abstract painting. She did not look fine at all.

"It has nothing to do with Mr. Hayato."

Phoenix Girl added that in time, making Wolverine, who had been about to charge Hayato, stop dead in his tracks.

Professor X maneuvered his wheelchair, one hand pressed against Jean Grey's crown as his expression turned grave.

He discovered that the cage he had set up within Jean Grey's mind had loosened slightly. Imprisoned within it was Jean Grey's dark personality, Dark Phoenix.

Not only did Dark Phoenix possess psychic abilities far beyond Phoenix Girl's normal state, she could also wield the Phoenix Force—the most perfect Phoenix Force in history.

The Phoenix Force came from the primordial universe. Born at the beginning of all things, it was chaotic yet immortal, eternal yet unpredictable. It was a child of the universe.

—It was the embodiment of life and psychic power in the primordial universe, symbolizing life and emotion.

—It was the link point for the minds and spirits of all things that existed, or would exist in the future, across the infinite multiverse.

—It was the creator and source of psychic power.

—It was the vessel and ruler storing the life and emotional energy of future generations throughout the entire infinite multiverse.
