“You think this is the end, mutant? Let me make you a promise.” The head said, voice now wholly digital. “When I come back, you won’t know until you find yourself standing in a pile of your own dead. And I will come back. I will come back.”
The mutants of Xavier's - and associated locales - find themselves at war with the island nation of Genosha.

Arc Summary
Beginning with the mansion providing sanctuary for two young Genoshan refugees, Jenny Ransome and David Moreau, this arc then became an investigation into their subsequent disappearance and a strike against their abductors. Genosha then retaliated, striking at the students and staff of the school, and then capturing most of the rescue teams. Battling against a nation's army, struggling to survive and protect each other, the arc concludes with a titanic battle between the insane Thomas Moreau and, well, everybody.
