Kicking him out of her mental space, Jean confronts Emma about this activity and learns that it's been going on for some time. Later, when Beast goes looking for cheering up Emma, he finds her seemingly killed with her body shattered into pieces in her diamond form. Bishop and Sage are immediately called in to investigate and they starts interrogating everyone in the mansion.

After his secret psychic affair with Emma Frost is exposed, Cyclops left the X-Men behind and seeks solace at the Hellfire Club in a bottle of wine. One of Hellfire Club's scantily clad strippers seductively tries to charm him but Scott brushes her off by not paying any mind. The feral mutant Sabretooth was also found present at the facility and couldn't help but mock him a little for having to deal with his issues with booze until club’s owner Sebastian Shaw arrives to warn him about not to bother a patron of the club.

Scott was then found drinking at the club by Wolverine and addresses how bad he is making the X-Men look like right now. Cyclops asked him if he's been tracking him but Logan assures him that he has his own business here. After talking to Scott, he came to the conclusion that Cyclops has already decided to quit the X-Men before leaving him for a while to hit the men’s room. As Wolverine stumbles onto Victor Creed there, the former tries to engage the latter in a battle by escalating an aggressive argument but unable to do so.

Cyclops and Wolverine gets back to their talk and then were approached a person in all-white attire, who goes by the name Fantomex and is here to see Logan. He is here to take help from them to infiltrate the Weapon Plus facility; a program responsible for the establishment of the original Weapon X program and turning Logan into the very man he is today and is currently floating in the earth's orbit. Fantomex wants to destroy Weapon XV and Wolverine wants to get his hands on classified files on him.

Scott declares that he has no interest in this venture and fall onto his faces but Wolverine assures Fantomex that he is the right person to be at their side. They arrive at Weapon Plus' self-contained research facility known as The World and find a couple of A.I.M. soldiers lying dead. Judging by the savage nature of the killings, Fantomex immediately deduces this as the handiwork of Weapon XV. Soon, the remaining goon starts firing at them till they are taken down.

The three of them enters The World filled with cybernetic wonders all around them, where time was frozen. Weapon XV eventually bumps into the trio and defeated them before heading to the Weapon Plus base on space. They reach the long deserted facility where Wolverine finds out classified information about him before he was drafted into the Weapon X program and during his days in the facility. A horrible truth about his past is revealed to him only moments before they set off the base to explode.

Along with Nightcrawler, Shadowcat and Colossus were resting by the pool abroad the cruise ship Titania after the Excalibur team has been disbanded most recently. Calling themselves the X-Men, Xavier's new recruits attacks on board Titania.

X-Men – The Hunt for Xavier | Comics

The X-Men team at the X-Mansion is re grouping again after the devastating events of "Operation – Zero Tolerance" and Storm is in charge of the current team. She leads fellow teammates Marrow, Rogue and Wolverine through the tunnels of Washington, D.C., through a series of defensive machines and hidden traps. After their brief meeting with X-Factor liaison Valerie Cooper about the recent developments regarding the missile launch, the X-Men are attacked by their impostors in mid-air, ensuing a battle but Nightcrawler and Colossus came to the rescue.

Afterwards, all of them goes to rescue Shadowcat and breaks her out of there after battling it out with their fake counterparts. Kitty Pryde was brought here in the first place as Xavier explained that during the time Bastion kept him, he was infected with a computer virus that now only she can cure him off. The X-Men flies back home in Blackbird and Xavier seemingly absorbed his fake recruits to take a robotic form, now calling himself Cerebro.

They soon are summoned by Nick Fury of S.H.I.E.L.D. to deal with one of their former villain Pyro. The mutant Pyro has good nuts and is flaming out intensely in Nebraska. Not only that, he's been shouting out the name of Professor Charles Xavier all the time. Storm splits the team in two groups, sending Wolverine, Colossus and Gambit after Pyro and led her own team of Marrow, Nightcrawler, Rogue and Shadowcat for crowd control.

As Storm engage to control the situation, Marrow confronts her about Xavier's action on the infamous "Mutant Massacre" event. Since Pyro is infected with the lethal Legacy Virus that is reaching to its ultimate stage, his powers are way out of their regular scale. Even Colossus felt the heat Pyro emitted in his armor mode. The X-Men were finally successful to take him down, but they are still riddled with the question that, why Pyro was frequently calling out for Xavier, when they don't share even a short history together.

After returning to the X-Mansion, they ran a search for Xavier via Cerebro but surprisingly found that currently there are two Xavier around the world! Meanwhile, the real Professor Charles Xavier was forming a new Brotherhood of Mutants consisting Blob, Post, Mimic and Toad to oppose an oncoming foe that he fears he cannot face and win alone against.
