Title:
X-Man
Synopsis:
In Ireland, the religious hero called the Crusader is reborn after learning about Nate Grey, who some call the second coming, being in Ireland. The brothers at the monastery where the Crusader was residing are unable to stop him from leaving, as he departs to find Nate Grey.
Nate currently sits in a telekinetic bubble hovering over London. He thinks about his current situation, what and who he has left behind in New York, and wondering about his destiny. He then notices a young woman standing on a ledge of a very tall building, preparing to jump. Rescue services are trying to talk her down, but without his telepathy, Nate is unable to command the girl to stop. She falls, plummeting towards her death, until Nate flies down and grabs her. He flies over the city, despite the girl protesting, and returns her to her apartment.
Hours later, she wakes. Nate listens as the girl, Colleen, reveals her story to him, particularly her troubles with her parents, before she realizes that he is Nate Grey. She asks him to cure her mind of her troubles. When Nate explains that he can’t do that because of the disturbance to the psychic plane, she gets angry and storms off. Worried that Colleen might try to kill herself again, Nate knows he has to go after her.
While Nate is looking for Colleen, the Crusader is on the warpath in his search for Nate. Nate tries to look in all the sorts of places he thinks an alternative girl like Colleen would visit, when he sees a television recording of the Crusader, publicly challenging Nate. Nate finds the Crusader attacking police officers in an area where the police have tried to contain him. Nate confronts the religious hero, who is adamant that Nate must be killed. They battle in a building, each challenging the other with words and power. Colleen sees the battle and crosses the police barricade to help Nate. A ceiling starts to collapse on her when the Crusader knocks out a support beam. Nate is able to put a telekinetic shield around Colleen to protect her, but the Crusader is horrified by his actions, for Colleen is not much older than his own daughter. He rushes over to her, but Nate has some angry words for him, and uses his telekinesis to destroy the Crusader’s weapons and armor. The Crusader begs the Lord for forgiveness, while Nate picks Colleen up and flies away with her.
The brothers from the monastery arrive to take the Crusader back with them, while Colleen thanks Nate for saving her life, twice.
