When Remy LeBeau’s father, Jean-Luc, arrives at the Xavier Mansion, Remy is pulled back into the world of assassins. The Hellfire Club is active again, and the Assassins Guild is one of their targets. Jean-Luc wants to end the war by killing Sebastian Shaw, but Remy urges a different path. They agree that Shaw must be confronted, regardless of the outcome. Remy, Jean-Luc, and young assassin Betsy Braddock infiltrate the Hellfire Club disguised as members. Shaw, expecting them, captures Jean-Luc, while Remy and Betsy escape, wounded and disheartened. They regroup at a dive bar called Josie’s, where a stranger asks if they’re staying long. Remy replies, “Just long enough to heal.” Once recovered, they storm the Hellfire Club. Remy faces Shaw while Betsy fends off his men. Remy gains the upper hand, but Shaw presents Jean-Luc at gunpoint. He declares it over, but Jean-Luc tells Remy that sometimes doing the right thing isn’t easy—and shoots Shaw in the head. Shaw’s men kill Jean-Luc, but Betsy takes them down. At Jean-Luc’s funeral, Remy tells Betsy he’s heading back to Rogue—he’s planning to propose. Betsy tells him there will always be a place for him. Remy nods and walks away.
