	“I knew that I would have some company after I captured these muties.”  Herbert Landon declared calmly, even with the ground floor having been covered with the gas emitted by the smoke grenades and with a mutant wielding an automatic assault rifle.   He began to walk through the fog of smoke towards a ladder that led up to a separate upper level in that room.  “That’s why my, well, investors decided to provide a little help, just in case anyone decided to interfere with my experiments.  Well, I guess this is my cue to exit stage right.”

	“I don’t think so.”  Cyclops shouted from his perch above, while he aimed his visor at the ladder so that he could wreck Landon’s means of escape before he could climb up it.  Although Cyclops was successful in putting the ladder out of commission without injuring Landon, a bullet whirled right past his head, missing it by only inches.  Instinctively, Cyclops hit the deck, diving for the floor of the upper deck so that he could protect himself from the marksman below.

	“Quicksilver, I thought I told you to disarm everyone down here!”  Cyclops shouted into the ‘x’ shaped communicator.

	“You could have killed me!”  Landon yelled up towards Cyclops, “By breaking into this facility, your actions only prove my point that the world needs my formula.  You are a disease that is killing off humanity!”

	“Funny coming from the man who would willingly use humans as Guinea pigs.”  Iceman taunted back.  At that moment, Bobby Drake was trying to freeze the chemicals within the vat in the center of the room.  If you cannot stop the cages from being moved over to the vat of chemicals, you might as well try to prevent them from being submerged.  So far, he had only managed the create a thick layer of ice (or rather a layer of the chemical in a frozen state), but there was plenty of liquid still underneath that layer of ice.  Suddenly, something swung out of nowhere and knocked Iceman down onto the floor.  All Bobby could discern from the situation was that he saw a red and blue blur come straight at him.

	When Iceman began to pick himself off the ground, he saw someone in a red and blue costume standing before him.  Confused at what he was seeing, Bobby said, “Webhead, what are you thinking?  We’re on the same side!”

	“What are you talking about?”  Spider-Man called out to Bobby, but the X-Man realized that that voice did not come from the costumed man who was standing in front of him.  Instead, it came from the guy, wearing the same exact suit, who was trying to hold back the cages containing Nightcrawler and Firestar, hoping not to electrocute himself.

	“Holy cow!”  Iceman exclaimed when he realized that there were [b]two[/b] Spider-men.  “Unless I have double vision, we have a shapeshifter down here!”
