December 2012 *** February 2013
2003 | 2004 | 2005 | 2006 | 2007 | 2008 | 2009 | 2010 | 2011 | 2012 | 2013 | 2014




The new year saw new opportunities for several: a much calmer Logan returned to the mansion and tentatively began reconnecting with the residents and the students; Molly Hayes, stood up to her parents and began to make progress with her memory issues; Layla Miller left for Attilan for further study and Yvette Petrovic and Fred Dukes finally went on their first date. X-Factor lost another member, with Vanessa Carlysle going on an extended job in Vancouver, while Artie Maddicks sought the help of Amanda Sefton and Jennifer Walters in searching for his true history.


The New Mutants were targeted by the Slendermen, before only known as an internet meme - the reality was much worse, with the group forced to face grotesque mockeries of friends and families, designed to bring out their strongest emotions. With X-Force called in to provide an exit, the students escaped, somewhat worse for wear. Tandy Bowen increased the frequency with which she asked Topaz to drain her fears, to the point the powers abuse was discovered and both girls found themselves in deep trouble. Billy Kaplan's issues came out in a more humorous way, as an attempt to summons something that wasn't eggs for breakfast resulted in several days of randomly appearing potatoes.


Betsy Braddock, erratic after the Genosha incident, mysteriously appeared in Jean Grey's bed, unwell and confused, leading Jean to insist she stay at the mansion until they sorted things out. "John Doe", bothered by flashes of memory, emailed Kurt Sefton about a purple cat he kept recalling.
