The much-delayed graduation finally happened, and the dance that followed stirred the mansion's residents up. Callie Betto, after some convincing on Fred Dukes' part, agreed to return to the mansion in the wake of Amara Aquilla's departure. Former student Johnny Gallo returned to the mansion after having been gone for three years, and found a plethora of new students, as well as many old, friendly faces. The school gained yet another new student - Renee Nguyen. Rachel Kinross-Dayspring's presence in the mansion continued to stir up feelings, especially when she met Sooraya Qadir. Angelo Espinosa found out that his girlfriend was moving to Cleveland to be with her brother.

A series of strange events led Amanda Sefton and Wanda Maximoff to William Kaplan, a newly manifested mutant and magic user whose pranks on the city got just a little out of control. They found him just as he was attempting to break down Amanda's protective wards, and convinced him to let them help him. An X-Men team was deployed to act as security at a concert in Minnesota after The Purifiers started issuing threats. A fight broke out on the second night, and the X-Men worked together to take the Purifiers down and save the civilians. Angelica Jones, accompanied by Scott Summers, went back to England after hearing her former roommate disappeared, and the two discovered an underground gang of mutants has been terrorizing the streets of London.
