The government sends a Sentinel against Vulcan but he quickly destroys it. Cyclops uses this diversion to send Rachel back to the mansion to contact the rest of the X-Men for help. Vulcan takes Cyclops to Muir Island and they wait for Professor X to show up. Xavier arrives, followed quickly by the X-Men. Cyclops is horrified when Xavier admits that Vulcan has been telling the truth--he is part of a previous team of X-Men who died on Krakoa and is also Scott's brother. Vulcan demands that Xavier show them all telepathically, but Charlie admits that he can't do so as he is no longer a mutant.
