Nathan spends the start of the month being held captive by his uncle in Rio – clues left by his precognitive fits of the previous month allow the X-Men to track him to at least the right city, if not the exact place. They explore several avenues of investigation while trying to locate him, including talking to local officials and searching out his last known whereabouts. The team finally locates Nathan, now being held far to the south in Ushuaia, and undertakes a rescue. Dazzler, Jetstream, Juggernaut and Polaris attack the house where he is being kept and manage to rescue him, but not without some encounters with his uncle’s goons and a spectacular explosion, as well as the deaths of Saul and Gideon Faraday and a final semi-resolution to the mystery of Askani and Nathan's mother. When they return to the mansion Nathan has a lot of people to answer to.
Meanwhile, back at the mansion, Shiro reads a disturbing news article about the murder of a prominent Japanese official. Logan and Cain have an altercation in the Danger Room that ends up with Logan being taken off active team status, at least for a few days.
In Ireland, Terry is visiting with her father at the Keep. Her uncle Tom shows up and convinces her to go for a ride with him, effectively kidnapping her without her knowledge. Several people are offered jobs – Bobby by Nathan, and Remy by Pete Wisdom. Pete then goes to Muir to offer Amanda a position as well. Alison and Haroun prepare for their move to the West Coast Annex and say their goodbyes to the mansion residents. Kylun goes to Scotland to meet his birth parents for the first time.
Forge, Kyle and Jay are attacked in an alleyway after Jay’s set by a mutant who disfigures them and leaves them in great pain. The mansion immediately begins to investigate as the mutilations continue. Doug and Marie-Ange are attacked while out asking questions of recent victims – Doug’s hands are disfigured. Ororo and Kurt begin to move about town in hopes of locating the mutant responsible for the attacks, but it is only after talking to Kyle that they figure out the key to finding them. Unfortunately, they do so all too well, and Ororo is grabbed by the mutant’s minions and dragged into the sewers. The team goes after her, capturing Masque, the mutant who attacked the students, as well as finding many other of his victims.
When everyone is brought back to the mansion the process of repairing the damage begins. Marius ‘borrows’ Masque’s power and sets to work righting the mutilations for the many victims that were affected. The stress gets to everyone, however, and there are several altercations which result in unheeded discipline.
Several members of the mansion run into Jane in various places, including Moira, Illyana, and Remy. Terry eventually turns her uncle in for theft and returns to the mansion to confront Bobby. Scott goes to the hospital after it is discovered that he has an ulcer. Kyle attends a ring fight in town and is invited to come back, this time as a competitor. He does so and participates in a test fight, which goes well. Professor Xavier is contacted by Laurie Collins’ mother after her manifestation causes a near-riot at a local high school. Nathan agrees to become her counsel in court.
Amanda, Pete, Remy and Betsy meet to begin planning their rescue of Romany. There is another encounter with Jane, this time by Jay, and he discovers some information that leads Scott to believe that something is afoot. He goes to visit her and ends up being thrown in jail, though he is bailed out by Sebastian Shaw, who reveals the ‘truth’ to him and asks for his help. With this new information, Scott plans an infiltration of the Hellfire Club to bring Jean back. Ororo, Logan, Sam and Kurt accompany him, and they manage to get her out and back to the mansion safely.
