- Heartbreak Hotel · 23 pages
Dazzler's powers are out of control and she is recuperating under the watchful eye of Beast at a residence for displaced mutants. The pair begin to foster a romance. Alexander Flynn arrives at the hotel and promises to help Dazzler with her power problems if she will come perform. She agrees, Beast follows and attends Dazzler's first performance and is horrified to find that the theater is a arena where mutants fight. Alex promises Dazzler it is staged but a mutant is killed. Beast tries to get Dazzler to leave with him but she begins to feel at home with her fellow misfit mutants and refuses.
