Title:
Astonishing X-Men (Vol. 3)
Synopsis:
X-Termination, Part 5:  A Final Goodbye

Jean Grey has taken in the power of Apocalypse and has been transformed into an immensely powerful being. Though she still holds on to her personality, the death powers are already corrupting her.

As the monsters feed off the energy from the portal, Jean engages them in combat, blasting them away and drawing their attention. Howlett mourns the death of Kid Nightcrawler, causing AoA Nightcrawler to face up to what he has done. Prophet tells him to stop pitying himself and says they need Sage and the Celestial black box from the other universe. Nightcrawler teleports through the portal, and on his way, he sees billions of other monsters descending upon the portal.

In the 616 universe, Wolverine and Northstar are arguing about what to do. Sage manages to connect her mind to the black box and sees the origin of the monsters. The Celestials created life because they were lonely. They decided to create death as well, so they formed the monsters. However, the monsters turned on them, and so the universe was copied many times, and the monsters were imprisoned in one of them. The constant travelling between universes weakened the walls and allowed the monsters to escape again. Suddenly, Nightcrawler appears and takes Sage back with him.

In New Apocalypse, Jean is fighting the monsters but more continue to come through the portal. Slowly, the death seed starts to take her over more, and she begins to lose herself. As the carnage spreads, Sage and Nightcrawler appear, and Sage tells Prophet she knows what to do. He already knows, though. The monsters need a prison, and this universe is the best choice. Dazzler tries to tell him there must be another way, but he says there isn’t. They need to get everyone they can back to her world and then close off the portal. Nightcrawler says he can do both.
