X-Force learns that the recent anti-mutant terrorism is the work of an extreme splinter-group of the Purifiers. Their leader, Jonathan Standish, sees the panic and chaos of the Asgardian Serpent God of Fear as a sign that super-humans have brought about the End of Times. The only way to save humans is through mass-suicide forcing X-Force to determine where Standish's enhanced Purifiers will strike next.
