During the wedding of Scott and Jean, the Watcher speculates on three possible alternate realities.
When Hank graduates from the X-Men and Scott and Jean announce their marriage at the same time, the rest of the team decides it is time they leave Xavier as well, using the lessons he taught them in the real world. Professor X forms a new group of X-Men but, when they take on the living isle of Krakoa, they are all killed, even though the Avengers attempt to rescue them.
Scott becomes an insecure jerk who isn't fit to lead the X-Men so Jean falls for Angel instead. Angry at Xavier for not seeing his true potential, Cyclops joins Magneto who promises him leadership of the Brotherhood.
With her transformation into the Phoenix, Jean decides that Scott is too much of a stick in the mud and hooks up with Wolverine instead. When she is later transformed into Dark Phoenix, her love for Wolverine is not enough to restrain her from destroying the universe.
