"In hindsight we accomplished what was necessary." Charles said. "With the rise of the Sentinel Army, drastic measures had to be taken. Enemies became allies. Allies became strangers. Help came from unlikely sources and many revealed their true potential in a battle against extinction. Unfortunately, battles can not be won without sacrifices. While the Sentinel Army was stopped, it was stopped at immeasurable personal cost. The loss of Nightcrawler, Squid, and Rogue's powers among many other lives has struck us hard. We have to rise above these pains, however, if we are to be ready for the next battle."

This Saturday

Rogue jumped in. She stood up and aimed an arrow at Quinn.
"You have failed this city!"
She turned the arrow at McKenna and fired. The assassin darted to the side and fired her own arrows. Rogue moved to the side and the arrow struck an elderly woman in the shoulder. Rogue cursed and ran up on stage, firing arrows to keep McKenna busy. She had forgotten how good McKenna truly was, though. McKenna returned fire, nicking one of Rogue's purple armor plates.

Be Ready
-
Laura leapt. She had taken the time she had been talking to Sinister to study her opponents. The man holding the girl was within her reach. She had been coiling her legs like a cat before it pounced on a butterfly. Laura soared through the air, flipped, ejected her foot claw, and sliced the gun in half before digging her claws into the first man's shoulders. She grabbed the school-girl and tossed her back towards her friends. The other three soldiers opened fire on her. She yelped and dropped to the ground.

For The Epic New Season
-
The two charged at each other, Ms. Marvel swinging. Rogue slid between her legs and placed a firm kick to the base of her spine. Ms. Marvel stumbled and caught Rogue's punch. Rogue intertwined her leg with Ms. Marvel's and twisted, causing the blonde to fall down. Rogue slammed her foot down at Ms. Marvel's stomach, but the Avenger rolled to the side and stood up, swinging again. Rogue dodged her punches, caught some, and ducked others.

"That doesn't explain how you got this number"
"There's a lot to explain. And if you'll let me, I'd like to make you an offer."
"What kind of offer?" Rogue asked.
"I'm putting together a team, and I'd like you and your specific set of abilities and resources on my team."
"Team?" Rogue asked.
"Well," The red-haired girl with orange streaks replied. "It's really more of a…force."
