Summary

  Kitty remembers the first time she saw Piotr, when the X-Men recruited her (UXM 129). Mandroids attacked the malt shop, and Piotr, Ororo, and Logan defended her. That's how she learned she was a mutant, and she developed a crush on Piotr, her hero.

  Piotr is dead (UXM 390); Kitty is flying commercial to Moscow. The Legacy Virus is cured?even those dying in Genosha are recovering?but she is devastated. She drives across Russia, stopping in a diner in Yaroslav.

  She recalls talking to Piotr, brooding alone in the cold by the pool after Illyana died (UXM 303). He blamed himself for endangering her. Kitty wanted to say the good outweighed the bad, but she didn't believe it, so she just hugged him and sat with him all night.

  She reaches the Ust Ordynski Collective, uncovers an urn, and lets Piotr's ashes scatter.

  She writes Xavier, quitting the team and telling him not to contact her, and enrolls in college. Xavier orders Cerebro to delete all files referencing her.

  The Neo are still in St. Michael's (iss. 106). Magneto arrives and rips through their defenses. He orders them to kneel, but they attack. He tears Rax and Salvo apart and tells Domina he won't tolerate inter-mutant bickering. He plans to unite mutants against humanity and to deal finally with Xavier.
