"Mutants. Since the discovery of their existence, they have been regarded with fear, suspicion, often hatred. Across the planet debate rages. Are mutants the next link in the evolutionary chain? Or simply a new species of humanity, fighting for their share of the world? Either way, it is an historical fact sharing the world has never been humanity's defining attribute." Professor Xavier explains.
"'We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break the bonds of our affection.' Lincoln said that in his first inaugural address as our nation's 16th president." The Whitehouse tour guide explains. "It's one of my favorites. If you'll please have your tickets ready, we can begin the tour." She leads the group away.
One man stands in the back. He wears a long trench coat and a baseball cap with a pair of sunglasses. As others go through the checkpoint, he steps to the side and turns a corner. He stares at a closet, just past security.
Bamf! A flash of light and smoke appears under the closet's doorjamb. Bamf! He appears in a hallway and begins walking.
A man sits at a desk, going through paper work. A woman stands near him. "Jackie, clear my schedule. I'm having dinner with my son." He tells her.
"Yes, Mr. President." She says.
A checkpoint agent sees the man in the baseball cap. "Excuse me, sir. Are you lost?" He walks closer and stops, staring at the man's face. The man's face is covered in powder, in the attempt to fit in, but it does not hide the natural carvings. A forked tail reaches up into the air. The checkpoint agent goes to draw his gun, but the mutant leaps at him, knocking him to the ground. He snatches the gun with his tail and throws it to the side. The agent speaks into his com. "Perimeter breach at visitors' checkpoint."
The mutant passes another agent, who takes out his gun. The agent sees movement out of the corner of his eye and aims. "Multiple subjects." He speaks into his com.
Several agents burst into the oval office. "Mr. President, security breach. Jackie, leave. Get him to the car." He says in an urgent tone. The woman follows his orders. Let's get him out to the car." They begin leading the President away.
Bamf! The mutant attacks more agents.
"Exits not clear. Unknown how many." An agent says, covering the President.
An agent runs down the hallway. "Both sides secure." He says into his com before the mutant drops from the ceiling knocking him down before leaping at another agent.
An agent at the end of the hallway fire his gun but the mutant dodges every shot, leaping from place to place. Bamf! The mutant disappears only to reappear in front of the agent, kicking him through the window.
"Something's in the corridor." An agent says.
"To the shelter." Another says as they keep the President low, guarding him as they go to guide him out the room.
Several armed officers burst in. "Negative! Not clear!"
The makeup has faded from the mutants skin, revealing dark blue, almost black skin and bright yellow eyes. He watches from the crack of a door before bursting out. Two agents aim at him. Bamf! He appears behind them, knocking one to the ground while throwing the other into the air.
Two more agents come from around the corner. "It's outside the Oval Office." One says into his com.
