2004: Marie-Ange asks Doug out. Manuel is offered the chance to be able to go about without a collar, and tells Alison what he did to Lorna.
2005: Scott and Jean finally meet and talk. Jamie convinces Paige that not everyone hates her, and they go for a drive. Nathan finds Catseye still trying to experiment with her Big Cat form. Kylun uses the Danger Room to recreate his old monastery, and Alison accompanies him in meditation. Dani is harassed by anti-mutant bigots, and loses control of her power until Alison shows up. Thermopylae: Plans are made for the final assault on Mistra; Hank provides Alison with sonic generators to add to her uniform.
2006: X-Men Mission: Trans-Siberian Hustle: On the ground in Vladivostok, Scott makes a voice-scrambled call to set up the critical part of the All-New and Expanded Grand Plan. Scott and Piotr take a train ride. Piotr brings vodka. Scott gets into the freight car and finds the crate containing Gideon's cargo. The girl in the box is a little disoriented, not unexpectedly. Sam plays catch the train. Then he gets to play ‛knight in shining armor'. As he gets the girl out of there, someone else gets put in the box. Meanwhile, back in Vladivostok, Alison and Nathan arrange to have one more angle covered. Nathan stands on a rooftop in the snow and keeps an eye on things. He is possibly pouting just a little at the role he finds himself in, but doesn't let that stop him from doing his part of the job. As the meeting starts, Gideon's security detail, delayed by the snow and rushing to meet their boss, runs into a spot of trouble. Cain doesn't precisely meet his match, but he does meet someone who can hold their own. Haroun tackles the flyer in the group, focusing on keeping her from getting to her boss. Kurt finds someone who likes to play with knives. Alison takes on an energy-projector who is somewhat lacking in her follow-through - surprising, given her employer, but Alison takes full advantage of it. The X-Men's diversionary tactic works exceptionally well, leaving Gideon with precisely one mutant to synch to at the meeting site. He opens the box and gets a nasty surprise. Pete enjoys himself just a little, but sadly, doesn't get to have quite as much fun as he'd hoped. The two teams regroup at the Blackbird, and Scott and Alison take stock. Nathan and Pete hook back up and stop for a bit of a breather before heading back to the plane. Pete laments how minimal the violence was. Nathan gets a precognitive flicker and a nasty little idea as to how to rub Gideon's nose in things. It doesn't take much to talk Pete into it.
2007: Lorna drags Marie out. Marie-Ange and Forge go on another date and a conspiracy is revealed. Sooraya shows Tommy some of her progress with her powers, scouring a chunk of silver smooth. Monet and Crystal go for coffee and unexpectedly bond over mutual reluctance to be at the school. Kaiten: The situation for Scott grows more desperate as his powers continue to increase. Five Against One: Marie and Lorna encounter a wildly out-of-control Davey, and discover Jack is harming the body in his anger over Charles' confession.
