Magik decides to teleport to the future and manipulates her teammates into coming. They arrive in the future at Xavier's to discover that little seems to have changed. In the present, the various members of the old New Mutants hook up to spend a weekend together. They discover their past selves and catch the old team up on the changes they have each undergone.
