Alcatraz Island, San Francisco, Earth 10005

The flight to San Francisco had gone more or less smoothly, really. Hell, it had been downright quiet, except for the phone call that Karla had made back while they were still somewhere over Nebraska. Warren had gone pretty quiet from there. The amount of yelling that he could hear from the other end of the phone had been almost as unsettling as the vague knowledge of what they were heading into in the first place.

( One did not simply walk into Alcatraz. )

[NFB, NFI, and once again written with the lovely glacial_witch! We're almost done with this canon catchup mess, promise!]

Worthington Labs, Alcatraz Island, Earth 10005

Warren Worthington, Jr. was a lot of things. The owner of a wildly successful company, the developer of the first ever cure for the X-gene, and obscenely rich.

( Today, he was also horribly nervous... )

[Still NFB, Still NFI, and to be continued in the comments, with glacial_witch at the helm of Warren's old man! Also. WHAT ARE THE ODDS that this post has the same number as the Earth designation number for the movies? Laughing all the laughter, over here.]
