All the things we built are falling down. Do you feel it? The Brotherhood. Xavier's Academy. They've all become irrelevant now. Or been rendered into ash and tallow, like Genosha.

Synopsis for "Blinded by the Light (Part I of IV)"Edit
After dealing with the Hecatomb, the X-Men rendezvous back at Mystique's old home in Mississippi. Rogue is having difficulty sorting through the eight billion minds that she had recently absorbed. Iceman grows concerned and radios the home team. Scott tells him that they will regroup with the rest of the team to help out. While Rogue performs a recon of the property, Iceman and Mystique share a tender moment. Omega Sentinel goes into the kitchen to perform a diagnostics check. Upon doing so however, something overtakes her and she begins acting strangely. Cannonball goes upstairs to check on Rogue who is reminiscing about her childhood.
On Providence, Cable scours through the wreckage suffered during the Hecatomb debacle. He brings an updated version of the Professor back online, and the artificial intelligence warns him that there are two other life signs on the island. Suddenly, Gambit and Sunfire, two former Horsemen of Apocalypse, appear on the island and begin attacking Cable. Evading several deadly explosions, Cable races inside the facility and activates a computer sequence using the spoken command "Requiem". As Sunfire closes in on him, a massive explosion tears through Providence.
Back in Mississippi, Cyclops, Emma and Wolverine arrive to check on Rogue. Emma performs a psychic diagnosis and learns that the eight billion minds trapped inside of Rogue's body are greatly weakening her conscious mind. Emma prepares to erect some psychic barriers to protect Rogue's psyche. During the process, Omega Sentinel enters the room and blasts Emma. As the X-Men turn in shock, they discover that Omega Sentinel is now possessed by a digitized version of Malice.
Malice's colleagues, the Marauders burst into the house and begin fighting with the X-Men. The X-Men don't understand how the Marauders could have entered the dwelling undetected. Lady Mastermind reveals herself as a traitor and is responsible for masking the Marauders presence. The Marauders also have another ally within the X-Men ranks – Mystique. In the heat of battle, Mystique draws her sidearm and shoots Rogue squarely in the chest. As Rogue lies bleeding at her feet, Mystique commands, "Mission parameters stand, Marauders. Kill them all!"
