When an explosive event shatters the lives of the X-Men and takes away their mentor, the beaten heroes walk away from it all. But then they are given a rare glimpse into the future, and see the world in utter ruin, ruled by giant destructive robots; a world that spiralled out of control because the X-Men had given up. Wolverine, the most legendary of all X-Men, reunites the broken heroes to prevent the world's destruction. Charles Xavier contacts Wolverine from the future and explains that in his world, the entire African continent has been destroyed by the hand of Storm. The X-Men must find Storm immediately to save Africa from destruction. Emma locates Storm with Cerebro and the team sets out for Africa in the X-Jet. It is almost too late. When they arrive on the scene, Storm is under the mind tricks of the Shadow King and has flooded her own village. As the rains pour down, Emma telepathically gets into Storm's head to defeat the Shadow King. Close call. Rains calmed, Storm leaves with the X-Men, knowing that her place is with them. She and her people are only alive because of Xavier's warning from the future. She must do her part to make the future worth living for.
