“THERE ARE THOSE MUTANTS THAT BELIEVE A WAR IS BREWING,
BUT WHAT HAPPENS IF IT‘S ALREADY AMONG US?"
FALL, 2012 A TRAGEDY OCCURRED THAT OPENED THE EYES OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. DURING A PUBLIC BATTLE BETWEEN THE X-MEN AND THE BROTHERHOOD, CYCLOPS' VISOR MYSTERIOUSLY MALFUNCTIONED WHICH FORCED A POWERFUL OPTICAL BLAST TO LEVEL A NEW YORK CITY OFFICE BUILDING. THE BUILDING BURSTED INTO FLAMES BEFORE ANYONE HAD TIME TO REACT, AS IT WAS BASICALLY OVER BEFORE IT HAD TIME TO START. HUNDREDS WERE KILLED IN THE ACCIDENT. HUNDREDS OF INNOCENT PEOPLE DIED IN THE ACCIDENT, LEAVING BEHIND A WAKE OF DESPAIR AND CHAOS FOR THE REST OF THE WORLD.
THAT WINTER, SCOTT SUMMERS WAS ACCUSED OF MASS MURDER AND PUT ON TRIAL. MILLIONS OF AMERICANS WATCHED THE MONUMENTAL EVENT, AS IT WAS PLASTERED ALL OVER THE INTERNET AND TV. SENATOR KELLY USED THIS TRIAL TO PUSH FOR THE MUTANT REGISTRATION ACT OR MRA. OVERWHELMED BY GRIEF, SCOTT SUMMERS WAS THE FIRST TO REGISTER WITH THE GOVERNMENT. AFTER HE WILLINGLY REGISTERED, IT WAS ONLY A FEW WEEKS BEFORE THE ACT WAS PASSED. ALL MUTANTS MUST REGISTER WITH THE GOVERNMENT, AND WILL BE CERTIFIED LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENTS OF THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT. IN ORDER TO AVOID A FULL SCALE WAR, PROFESSOR CHARLES XAVIER WAS THE SECOND TO REGISTER. HE FORESAW THAT THE RAMIFICATIONS OF THIS WAR FAR OUTWEIGHED THE NEED TO REBEL. SOME OF THE OTHER X-MEN DISAGREED AND SLOWLY THE TEAM'S BONDS BEGAN SPLITTING. WHILE ROGUE AND OTHER MUTANTS BEGAN FLEEING THE COUNTRY BEING SCARED OF REGISTERING AND BEING LABELED AS A MUTANT FOR THE COUNTRY TO SEE.
TAKING ADVANTAGE CHARLES XAVIER, THE GOVERNMENT HOPED TO COAX ANOTHER MUTANT INTO JOINING THEIR CAUSE. USING PROFESSOR X'S LONG TIME FRIENDSHIP WITH MAGNETO, THEY HOPED TO CONVINCE HIM TO SEE THE PROPOSED NECESSITY OF THE MRA. MAGNETO REFUSED SAYING HE WOULD NEVER BE ENSLAVED BY A GOVERNMENT AGAIN. UPON HIS REFUSAL, CYCLOPS, CHARLES, AND SOME OF THE OTHER X-MEN TRIED TO TAKE HIM INTO CUSTODY AS ORDERED. MAGNETO HOWEVER, WAS HELPED BY TWO UNLIKELY ALLIES, WOLVERINE AND JEAN GREY. THEY REFUSED TO BE APART OF IT. BECAUSE OF PAST FRIENDSHIPS, EVERYONE WAS ABLE TO LEAVE IN PEACE, THAT ONE TIME. FROM THEN ON, IT WOULD BE A WAR WITH NO SIDE BEING SAFE.
"WHEN AN INDIVIDUAL ACQUIRES GREAT POWER, THE USE OR MISUSE OF THAT POWER IS EVERYTHING, WILL IT BE USED FOR THE GREATER GOOD OR WILL IT BE USED FOR PERSONAL OR DESTRUCTIVE ENDS? NOW THIS IS A QUESTION WE MUST ALL ASK OURSELVES. WHY, BECAUSE WE ARE MUTANTS."
