Story Title: Fresh Upstart
By: Jim Lee & Whilce Portacio
Artists: Whilce Portacio & Art Thibet
Synopsis: Shinobi Shaw and Trevor Fitzroy belong to a new group called Upstarts. They are in competition against each other and get points for killing certain people. Currently their targets are present and former members of the Hellfire Club’s Inner Circle. Shinobi is in the lead for having killed his father, but Fitzroy plans to get ahead by sending his own breed of Sentinels to Australia where they slaughter most of the Reavers to get to Donald Pierce. Only Deathstrike and Cylla are clever enough to realize that as long as they don’t get in the way, they won’t get attacked. Pierce tells Gateway to take him to the person responsible and enters the teleportation portal with some Sentinels following him. Meanwhile the X-Men Gold team are attending a Hellfire Club party, meeting with the Hellions and the White Queen Emma Frost. She contacted them for help as somebody has tried to kill her several times. Fitzroy appears, intending to finish what his operatives could not, but he gets defeated by the X-Men. Right then Gateway’s portal opens and Pierce arrives with the Sentinels in pursuit. The robots kill both Emma Frost and Donald Pierce, and on Fitzroy’s command then battle the Hellions and the X-Men. The young mutants panic and end up captured or killed one by one. The X-Men ensure that the civilians are out of harms’s way and manage to destroy one of the Sentinels, however Jean gets outnumbered by the other two and realizes that she has only one slight chance of surviving. Yet she gets blasted by the robots and is apparently dead. Fitzoy and his robots leave.
