Synopsis
The X-Men are attending the funeral of Professor Xavier, who died
battling the evil subterranean Grotesk, unaware their oldest foe
Magneto is watching and planning to attack the group during their moment
of loss, he calls for Quicksilver to come to his side, however finds
that he is not present. We soon learn that Quicksilver has used his
super speed to travel to the location of Xavier’s funeral to witness it
from afar. However, he is spotted by the X-Men who confront him and ask
him why he has come. Thinking that they intend to attack him,
Quicksilver realizes that he’s made a foolish decision and speeds off
back to Magneto. Before the X-Men can go after him they are called by
the priest giving off Xavier’s eulogy to finish the service. Furious
that Quicksilver would blow their cover like that, Magneto vows to
punish his wayward subordinate and then destroy the X-Men once and for
all.
With the funeral service over, the X-Men return to the mansion
and change into their X-Men uniforms before playing a tape of the
Professors final will. On the video, Xavier explains that he was dying
of a terminal disease that medical science could not possibly cure, and
asks the X-Men to carry on now that he is gone. He also explains to the
X-Men that he has trained Jean in the art of telepathy, and cautions
them to beware of Magneto, whom he suspects will strike against the
X-Men again and soon. The X-Men then watch tearfully as Xavier says his
final words to them before he perished at the hands of Grotesk.
While at Magneto’s citadel, the master of magnetism gloats over
how his magnetic powers are stronger than ever as Quicksilver returns to
the base and is reunited with the Toad and Scarlet Witch who have also
rejoined Magneto’s Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. Reunited with his sister
the two mutants lament over their departure from the Avengers, their
return to the Brotherhood and the death of Charles Xavier. Their moment
is interrupted when Magneto enters the room and abuses his charges,
demanding Quicksilver’s further loyalty in return for helping his sister
regain her powers.
Magneto then turns his attentions toward a cruise ship out at sea
that is carrying a computer which he needs, using his magnetic powers
to lift the boat out of the water. Magneto is unaware that his foes the
X-Men are on board, and they change into costume to face him directly.
Seeing his hated foes approach his base, Magneto then orders his
Brotherhood of Evil Mutants to help him destroy the X-Men. The X-Men are
easily battered by a combination of Magneto’s Brotherhood and his bases
traps. As a final salvo, Magneto turns on an device that electrifies
the floor, knocking the X-Men unconscious. With his hated foes defeated,
Magneto vows to destroy the X-Men once and for all.
