Plot

Cyclops contacted the school at the beginning of the month. Meeting with Pete in New Orleans, he revealed that he had a source within the Brotherhood of Mutants and this source had told him Magneto was planning a 'test' for Pyro, a test he wasn't expected to survive. Magneto sent Pyro and Stanley into a military weapons research base to provide an unknowing distraction whilst Magneto stole the blueprints and equipment he required.

The X-Men (Storm, Dazzler, Collosus, Angel and Rogue) arrived and managed to subdue Pyro, however, not without stopping Magneto escaping and not without casualties. Rogue and Stanley fell beneath a collapsing wall and were apparently killed. The X-Men left, taking the unconscious Pyro with them, not realising that the collapse had taken out the floor as well, knocking Rogue and Stanley into a basement level. They fell in such a way that Stanley's skin was in prolonged contact with Rogue's and she killed him, permanently absorbing his powers - flight, super-strength and invulnerability - and personality.

Several days later Rogue was located wandering in a daze along a road near the complex and was retrieved by Cyclops. Whilst recovering, she revealed to Moira that she had been held by the military and experimented upon.
