The introductory issue to the X-men event of the year, the story start just as any normal day in the island of Utopia. Cyclops requested Wolverine's help as a one man security personnel to the international arms control conference in Switzerland where Cyclops is to make a speech. Cyclops main speech is plead his case for the international leaders to stop and dismantle Sentinels but soon got heckled by one of the members in conference with noticeable six fingers on his pointing hand. The conference is disrupted when a mutant Quentin Quire barged in and uses his powers to make all the delegates to spill the truth on their lives.
In the chaos that ensues Quentin slips away and both Cyclops and Wolverine has to deal with Sentinels being sent in to clean up the mutant mess. Not much problem handling the sentinels for Wolverine. Then the story zooms into an arms manufacturer after the debacle at the conference. The arms manufacturer is not the main bad guy here as soon he is killed off by his 12 year old son Kade after scheming to inheriting his father's business. Obviously this kid is both a genius and psychotic.
Back in Utopia the x men watched as the events around the world starts to unveil because of the attack at the conference earlier. All countries began to mobilize their sentinel robots against any mutant attacks. In the end it is revealed the whole chaos in the conference is caused by Kade Kilgore the 12 year old who is inducted into the Hellfire club as the new black king. A new villain in the form of a kid. Villains can't get any more younger than this.
