Kitty never liked the idea of police officers with machine guns in their arms and missiles in their shoulders. In her opinion, there should just be more mutant police officers, like the X-Men, but on a local scale. If people could fight people, mutants should be able to fight mutants. Not to mention that machines almost invariably went wrong, and this incident was a perfect example. Their computer chip malfunctioned, the programmers messed up, or even if the AI worked perfectly and this man may have been seconds away from being a criminal – whatever the reason, the Sentinels needed to be recalled. Even if mutants would take advantage of the lapse of law enforcement, at least killer robots wouldn’t murder harmless civilians.
Closing the laptop that she had been using to monitor the news, she phased through the floor, landing near the kitchen. No doubt a discussion was happening in the rec room, and Kitty always liked to be a part of the aftermath of any big news story. The X-Men usually planned their next course of action huddled around a screen, and she would get her opinion heard. As she moved towards the rec room, she saw Leech scurrying away, head down and looking distraught. “Hey, Jimmy,” Kitty greeted gently, placing a hand on his shoulder. “How are you?”
