Illyana freaks out and the X-Men retire to their rooms until Xavier calls for them to return. Professor Xavier announces that he believes Rogue is sincere and that she will not only be accepted to the school, but will also be a part of the X-Men, this is met by heavy objections from the rest of the team. In the middle of this, Binary (aka Carol Danvers) returns to the mansion and attacks Rogue upon seeing her. The X-Men stop Binary, but she cannot accept Rogue as an X-Men and leaves.
