Synopsis for "Sworn To Protect"Edit

Professor Xavier admits to the Hulk that while he wouldn't have agreed to a permanent exile, he would have voted to send him away while the Illuminate searched for a cure. He admits he would have been guilty of playing god, but offers to surrender willingly. However, the Astonishing X-Men Squad, Colossus, Beast, Emma Frost, Cyclops, Wolverine and Kitty Pryde, will not allow the Hulk to take Xavier without a fight.

As the X-Men begin to fall, the Stepford Cuckoos send out a telepathic distress call to X-factor, Uncanny X-Men Squad and Excalibur. Juggernaut, frustrated that he is an ocean away, strikes a bargain with Cyttorak that allows him to be transported immediately to the Hulk.

Meanwhile, Cyclops' X-Men are falling faster than they can be healed by Elixir. The Hulk defeats Colossus, Wolverine and even Juggernaut. Just as Hulk thinks he has defeated all the X-Men, X-factor and the Uncanny X-Men arrive.
