While searching a supposed black plague burial site in Kazakhstan, a hired colleague of his discovered the remains of the site was not that of black plague victims but instead found bone fragments with mutant DNA in it of a group of people from 600 years ago. This group of mutants, according to the scientist pre-dated the mutants of today. Realizing the relevance of this information, Gray took all the remaining samples and killed the scientist.
