During the fight, Cyclops, Colossus, Banshee and Ka-Zar are taken prisoner and carried away.Wolverine convinces Zabu to follow him, Storm and Nightcrawler the rest of the way to the citadel. Sneaking inside through the lower levels where the citadels waste is stored, the uncaptured X-Men are attacked by small carnivorous dinosaurs until Storm sweeps them away with a gale wind. They manage their way to a giant hall of worship where Garrok and Zaladane have the captured X-Men tied to posts. They are attempting to execute Colossus first by having flames lit underneath him. As his organic metal body becomes red hot, Colossus wonders how much heat his body can withstand or if his skin can melt, when Storm and the others burst in and free them.
