| 2003 | 2004 | 2005 | 2006 | 2007 | 2008 | 2009 | 2010 | 2011 | 2012 | 2013 | 2014 |
Karolina Dean returned from her spring break vacation in Mexico 'flu free and with a new purpose - a deal with her parents that she could return home permanently if she completed the school year without further issues. Theresa Cassidy finished her degree and returned to her husband at Cassidy Keep, with the intention to remain there and pursue a career with Interpol. Jennie Stavros finally sought help from Jean Grey and Scott Summers, admitting her potential pregnancy.
Adrienne Frost and Jake Gavin got together, but in the midst of things Jake lost the concentration necessary for him to retain his arm and Adrienne freaked out, remembering Garrison Kane's dismembering the previous year; unfortunately, when she fled, she ran into Garrison himself, leaving Wanda Maximoff's apartment after his own hooking up and things ended in a very loud, very irrational argument as she blamed him for her state and he got defensive. In the wake of things, Jake and Adrienne stopped seeing each other and shortly afterwards Jake and Jean-Paul Beaubier became an item instead. Jay Guthrie, moping about his 'lost life' in the wake of many of his friends graduating, made a very bad decision and flew out to the West Coast Annex to see Kevin Ford - the ensuing fight resulted in Jay losing half a hand and needing a pick up from Jean-Paul, and a relationship well and truly dead. In Venice, romance capital of the world, Laurie Collins had her first time with Eamon, and Morgan became protective of both of them upon finding out. Johnny Gallo and Callie Betto both marked Mother's Day with visits to their mothers' graves and in the wake of her father failing to acknowledge her birthday, Doreen Green had another feral episode, this one much more serious and resulting in Kyle Gibney having to retrieve her from a tree.
Tabitha Smith ran afoul of an old 'friend', Telford Porter, who kidnapped her and handed her over to the Serpent Society, a group of mutants seeking to curry favour with the Black Court of the Hellfire Club by offering Tabitha as a mutant weapon. She was rescued by a mixed team of X-Men and Alpha Flight, leading to Lillian Crawley-Jeffries questioning Garrison if her ex-husband Madison had mentioned her at all and losing her temper at him when the answer was "no". Angelica Jones became a trainee, with the name of "Pants On Fire" and Monet St. Croix received her blacks. In good time - a massive team effort was needed in Budapest when the Preservers joined forces with Tara Trask in attacking a new psionics studies center and the Parliament building itself.
Carmilla Black and Jake found their pasts intermingling in a most disturbing way as Cammie was sent what she believed were her adoptive parents' fingers and Jake received a message to meet with his arm-nappers in Vermont. It turned out to be an elaborate plan by Cammie's birth mother, Monica Rappaccini, come to reclaim her "pet project", and her lover, George Tarleton who had worked with New Son and felt Jake would be useful in Monica's bioweapons projects. Fortunately back up arrived and while the pair escaped, no-one was hurt.
A local disaster when two trains derailed brought opportunities for the new residents to see Red X in action, and to help themselves.
Jean-Paul's birthday was marked with a Jake in a cake and a party to rival Nathan Dayspring's's the previous month. Prom night came, as full of drama and excitement as always: Amanda Sefton and Kurt Sefton had a cunning plan for Meggan Szardos; Catseye plotted with Kevin Ford to give Yvette Petrovic a date; Callie and Fred Dukes went as friends and discovered prom has a certain kind of magic; and Julian's attempt to cheer up Esme Stepford backfired when Angel caught him kissing her.
