As mysterious metal pods appear, picking up mutants one at a time around the world, Cerebro detects a new powerful mutant; Alexis Summers, Scyll's believed-to-be deceased sister. In a race to get to Havok before Magneto and her associate Mrs. Sinister can recruit her, the X-Women are forced to fight the Brotherhood for a place in Magneto's sanctuary. Magneto holds multiple battles to find out which mutants are "worthy" of joining her on Asteroid M. The "winners" are abducted by force and offered a place in the Cauldron, where Magneto offers to greatly strengthen and increase their mutant abilities to their full and maximum potential. Meanwhile back at the mansion, the "losers" who were left behind regroup, and decide to chase Magneto to her secret base and stop her plan to Evolve Mutants.
