Cyclops' planned feint worked. Osborn has sent in both his X-men team and the Avengers, assuming the mutants will be caught unprepared and vulnerable.

That could not be further from the truth.

"X-men, you need to confront Emma's team. Delay them however you can, then funnel them down to the bunkers. X-Force -- "

There are a few faces that tense at that, because no X-men like killing. But --

" -- you're going after the Avengers, especially Weapon Omega. Namor, the Sentry is yours. Take him down."

There are other assignments to give, more positions to be taken, but X-Force has their marching orders.

And Logan has a few for X all on her own.

"You expect me to believe you're sending the girl to take me on? Please, old man. I thought you knew me better than that. I'm just going to have fun taking her apart."

Daken talks too much.

X is not impressed.

Nothing about the subsequent battle changes her mind on that score.

Daken, on the other hand --

Well.

He'll learn.
