Magneto attempts to track down and destroy Apocalypse. However, Xavier isn't so keen to follow that example, and focuses elsewhere. Mystique, still a statue, is given to the Brotherhood for safekeeping. Nightcrawler, however, wants to bring his mom's statue body back to the Institute, and does so, much to Rogue's objections. Jean discovers that Apocalypse is currently in Mexico. Xavier, Cyclops, Jean, Shadowcat, Beast and Wolverine go there and attempt to peacefully communicate with Apocalypse, in the hope that they can arrange a peaceful truce. Unfortunately, Magneto attacks Apocalypse. The two battle, and Apocalypse kills Magneto with ease. Back in Bayville, Nightcrawler contacts Agatha. Rogue discovers that the two are meeting, and is quite angry about it. Agatha says that only Rogue can save Mystique from her fate as a statue. Nightcrawler begs Rogue to do the right thing, but Rogue, in a rage, pushes the Mystique statue off a cliff. Before Nightcrawler can save her, Mystique's statue body shatters. Apocalypse continues moving around the world, and he creates a second sphere in China. The military attempts to destroy it, but fails to do so. With little alternatives left, Nick Fury is ordered to free Trask and have him bring back the Sentinel program for the United States government to use against Apocalypse. Some time later, a new sphere appears in Eygpt. Xavier wants to try one more time to communicate peacefully with Apocalypse, and brings Storm with him. The other X-Men are able to watch via Cerebro's technology. During the discussion between Xavier and Apocalypse, the Egyptian villain informs the good professor that he plans to awaken the X-Gene in all humans over the world, turning them into mutants—that is, if they survive, which most will not. Xavier tries to talk Apocalypse out of this, but Apocalypse grows angry and prepares to attack. Storm, however, refuses to let anyone harm the professor, and attacks Apocalypse, throwing lightning at him. Apocalypse laughs at this attempt, and kills both of them as the other X- Men watch, horrified. Nick Fury soon comes to the Institute to inform them that Trask has restarted the Sentinel program to stop Apocalypse. Three Sentinels attack Apocalypse at the Sphinx, but he easily dispatches them. However, they served only as a decoy—other Sentinels were being sent to the three spheres to destroy them. To protect the spheres and the Sphinx, Apocalypse calls to his four Horsemen. The X-Men are startled to reveal the identities of these warriors. Magneto, the Horseman of War; Storm, the Horseman of Famine; Mystique, the Horseman of Pestilence; and Xavier, the Horseman of Death. Apocalypse hadn't killed them after all, but had merely possessed them and given them greater powers. Magneto was sent to protect the sphere in Mexico, Storm was sent to protect the sphere in China, and Xavier was sent to protect the sphere in Egypt. Mystique remained to guard the Sphinx. At first, it seemed like the Sentinels would succeed. The brought down the barriers on the spheres. However, the Horsemen, with their heightened powers, absolutely destroyed the Sentinels. Nick Fury had no choice left but to entrust the X-Men with the job of stopping Apocalypse. Wolverine took charge, and had the X-Men gather the Brotherhood, the Morlocks and the New Mutants, as well as anyone else they could find. He also stated that he had a special job for Rogue to do. The X-Men and their new recruits split into four groups. Wolverine, Cyclops and Nightcrawler went to the Sphinx. Jean Grey, Boom-Boom, Colossus, Multiple and Magma were sent to Egypt. Beast, Berzerker, Iceman and Spyke were sent to China. Finally, Shadowcat, Sunspot, Angel, Havok and Wanda were sent to Mexico. The four teams prepared for battle... And they were losing. Apocalypse prepared for the next step, and sent his pyramids into the skies above Earth. They pyramids formed an energy web, preparing to turn all humans into mutants and kill the rest. The X-Men become desperate, and the Brotherhood comes to battle Magneto in order to help Wanda. Jean, seeing the rest of her team fall, uses the power of Cerebro to enhance her psychic powers, and proceeds to battle Xavier on the astral plane. Her spirit power took the shape of a Phoenix, and she was able to strike him down. Unfortunately, Apocalypse is not stopped. He lies down in his original resting place to prepare for the evolution of mankind. Just when all seems lost, though, Nick Fury brings Rogue into the scene. Rogue had absorbed the powers of Leech, a young boy who could shut down any kind of energy—mutant, electrical, or anything else. She gets to Apocalypse's chamber, and shuts down all of his powers, sealing him away once again and stopping his plans. He is sent to another time period, and the Horsemen are brought out from the possession. Xavier, in his battle with Jean, had seen images...and the most disturbing of all, was Jean, brimming with Phoenix power, becoming their greatest enemy.
