Title:
X-Factor (2006)
Synopsis:
Feral attempts to take Wolfsbane’s unborn child by force, only to discover that she’s a ghost and thus unable to access the physical plane. Slowly remembering that she is in fact dead, Feral disappears as suddenly as she arrives.
Now alone, Rahne and Shatterstar decide to leave the scene of the church massacre before authorities arrive. Along the walk back, they are rejoined by Feral, who has since remembered the purpose of her return. In return for a regenerated body, she is a spectral anchor for beings headed to this dimension in order to claim Rahne’s child. One such being is Cu Sith, a giant demon dog who pounces upon Shatterstar. Though Shatterstar manages to decapitate it, he and Rahne are shocked when both head and torso begin to regenerate into separate versions of the original beast.
Now running back to HQ, they steal a taxi from its driver to get there faster. Nevertheless, they are accosted by Feral’s patron goddess, Bastet, who forces them out of the taxi. Unfortunately for Bastet, before she can claim her prize, she is attacked by two other demons, Okami and Kasha. In the ensuing chaos, Shatterstar and Rahne make a break for HQ, which is less than a block away.
Meanwhile at HQ, Rictor draws Madrox’s attention to Layla’s latest oddness. She is pouring salt along every entranceway to the building after having drawn wards with chalk on the entrance door or window. More exasperating to Rictor, she orders him to do the same, an order which Madrox affirms. Out of earshot of the others, Pip the Troll makes a call to his boss, urging them to hurry up, as there’s a lot interest in “the package.”
