Summary
- "Thanks to you all, we have averted catastrophe. It was not without its price, however. But steel is forged through fire, and like it we have been made stronger. We are prepared for what the future brings. I know this, because I have glimpsed into the mind of Apocalypse. Many challenges still await us. But I have seen some who were our enemies become friends.And with a heavy heart, I saw the dearest of friends, become the most terrible of enemies.I saw my X-Men grow and change. And of course, I saw that some people never change. But one thing was clear...that no matter what awaits us, terrible or wonderous... my X-Men will always be there, ready. And of that, I am proud."
- —Charles Xavier
The series ends with a speech by Charles Xavier, who had caught a glimpse of the future while being controlled by Apocalypse. The following future scenarios were foreseen:
- Continued anti-mutant sentiment.
- A reformedMagneto teaching the New Mutants, including a returned Jubilee andWolfsbane.
- Jean Grey transforms into the Dark Phoenix. Had the series continued, the show's next season would have focused on the "Phoenix/Dark Phoenix Saga".
- The future X-Men team consisting of adult versions of Cyclops, Nightcrawler, X-23,Iceman, Beast, Shadowcat, Colossus,Rogue (able to fly and not wearing gloves), and Storm (however, Wolverine is missing). The uniforms these future X-Men wear look very much like the dark uniforms seen in the Ultimate X-Men comic, as well as that of the live-action feature films.
- Adult versions of the Brotherhood, including Pyro, join S.H.I.E.L.D.
- An attack fleet of Sentinels led by Nimrod. Though Bastion and Mastermold have been suggested.
- The next season was possibly in talks of bringing in Emma Frost and Psylocke.
- The last scene shows the X-Men, the New Mutants, Gambit and Colossus (both former Acolytes), Boom Boom, Havok, Angel, X-23, and Spyke.
