In "Target X Part Two," X-23’s past unfolds as she recounts her fragile attempt to live a normal life with her foster mother’s relatives, finding unexpected connection with her cousin Megan—someone she once saved. But the assassin trained in death struggles to navigate the quiet chaos of high school, unaware that her past is closing in, especially when Megan’s boyfriend, secretly tied to her creators, carries a vial of the scent that triggers her lethal instincts.
