Xavier ordered, "Ryder, gather 50 men and come with me to meet Andrew. Remember, go all out when the time comes."

He added coldly, "Whatever the consequences, I'll take responsibility!"

Leslie spoke up, "Xavier, don't kill anyone. As long as no one dies, you can rough him up however you want. That's exactly the effect the General wants anyway, to knock this punk down a peg!"
