Mission Summary
Professor Xavier successfully recruited and/or promoted a number of students to form the second iteration of his X-MEN. But when evidence of electromagnetic interference was discovered regarding the Blackbird's previous mission and the mysterious wiping of all records and memories of how the First Class disappeared, Xavier reached out to parley with his old friend and nemesis Magneto.
Magneto accepted Xavier's parley and met in the middle of the night. Eavesdropping, Cyclops attacked Magneto in a fit of rage, triggering an all-out battle on the X-Mansion grounds between the fledgling new team and the Brotherhood.
After a pitched battle, Xavier used Cerebro to forcibly shut down hostilies in a manner he swore never to do upon his own team. Magneto used the Professor's brute force as leverage in his invitation to accept any of Xavier's students to join him on Asteroid M as part of his Great Mutant Exodus. Some accepted his offer, while other students abandoned the Mansion, having lost confidence in Xavier's dream or at the least his promise of safety.
The remaining students, plus a few new arrivals (Bliss, Connor, Elias, Iris, Katy, Margo, and Tammy) began training with faculty Cameron and Jade and came together as a real team. Professor Xavier put them to the test by sending them to rescue a mutant held hostage by the Roxxon Corporation which was conducting experiments on him. Levi Rousseau was the subject of renewable energy experimentation until rescued by the Alternate Class, though not without Iris Walker losing control of her abilities. Iris has been listed as M-I-A, as through the result of the accident her overloaded abilities are believed to have rendered her entirely unobservable within the current spacetime continuum.
With the loss of yet another student and having benched Scott Summers, aka Cyclops, for his poor judgment and rash actions, Professor Xavier was at an all-time low. However, when an another accident involving a narcoleptic student who turned out to be some sort of aberrant telepath put the entire X-Mansion on alert, the students and faculty came together in order to help their new friend return to herself.
The Alternate Class is not without its bruises and scars, but they are ready for greater field missions.
