Sabretooth crawls out of the Arctic crevice that Wolverine dropped him in during an earlier adventure looking for revenge. While Sabretooth is traveling to the mansion Jubilee is there alone with the Professor because she was not experienced enough to go with the X-Men on their latest adventure. When Sabretooth breaks into the mansion Jubilee must defeat him on her own (with a little help from Professor X). When the X-Men arrive back from their adventure they are very impressed that Jubilee was able to stop Sabretooth.
Publisher’s description
After being left out of a mission, Jubilee takes out her frustration by training while Professor X observes her. Little does she know, she will have to put that training to the test when Sabretooth breaks into the mansion! While the X-Men are out on a mission, Jubilee is training in the Danger Room, observed by Professor X. She's not too pleased with her prowess. Meanwhile, Sabretooth sneaks to the mansion grounds, using his mutant powers to get past the defense systems and concentrating to hide his thoughts from Professor X's telepathy. After Sabretooth ambushes and stuns Xavier, Jubilee uses all of her training, abilities and wits to fight against the feral mutant, finally bringing him down by pushing Sabretooth onto exposed electric cables. As the X-Men arrive, they are surprised by Jubilee's victory and congratulate her on surviving the "trial by fire".
