Author's Comments:
The Sentinels have risen up to 'save' America from Mutantkind. Their rallying points: the bodies of Robert Kelly and Graydon Creed. The story begins three days after the X-Mansion is destroyed. Xavier is dead, along with Iceman, Polaris, Emma Frost, Thunderbird, Reyes, Bishop, and Angel. Not even non-mutant superheroes are safe Mr. Fantastic, Invisible Women, Thing, Iron Man, Cap America, and Hulk are among the bodies heaped onto the Sentinels' funeral pyres.

To make matters worse Apocalypse has gathered together an alliance of Mutant Nationals to counter the threat of the Sentinels.

In this world the remaining X-Men, Magneto, the Human Torch, and Doom try to save the world and the Dream.

Resistance Roster:
Cyclops, Magneto, Psylocke, Storm, Phoenix, Rogue, Gambit, Wolverine, Havok, Shadow Cat, Human Torch, Doom, Beast, and Nightcrawler.

Lecturer's Note: The first four chapters of this story were written by Slim and Guthrie in alternating scenes on the Mutatis Mutandis Fan Fiction message board. This is a great example of collaborative writing by our students - see if you can pick out the different authors' paragraphs!
