The Torch Is Passed...!

Magneto is watching a big screen, where the X-Men are in Xavier's funeral, and then Quicksilver appears. Back to the mansion, they find a video-tape with a message from Xavier, saying that he knew he would die, and asking them for a final request: to defeat Magneto that had returned to Earth - before The Stranger had sent him back to his planet during X-Men #18.

Quiksilver and Scarlet Witch had both returned to the Brotherhood because she'd lost her powers when they were joining the Avengers and Magneto had promised them he would cure her, but what they didn't know is that Magneto had caused that lost of powers on purpose.

Magneto them attacks a cargo ship to steal a giant computer, but the X-Men had predicted the attack and have been already inside the ship. They fight the Brotherhood and are defeated.
