After Xavier: The Age of Apocalypse

Summary

  In Colorado, Chamber fights Husk in a training session, while Claudia, who is mostly computer, observes. Mondo inter-rupts when they start kissing, and then Colossus ends the session, angry that they haven't pushed themselves harder. Husk turns her hands to acid and burns his head, but he slaps her away, then Kitty at-tacks her with her claws. She feigns defeat, then stabs Kitty through the belly with her arm, now a diamond spike, but Kitty phases through it. Chamber drops a tree on Colossus, and Skin wraps up Kitty, who pulls him out of a tree. Husk morphs to a bio-pattern that Kitty can't phase through and takes her out, even though Skin is still in the way. Colossus is angry at Husk, but Vincente captures him, while Claudia ineffectively calls and end to the session.

  Magneto arrives and freezes everyone in place. He takes Colossus and Kitty aside, explaining about Bishop. Although Apoca-lypse killed all known time travelers, Claudia scans for those with an unrecog-nized power. She learns Illyana is alive, in Portland.
