Synopsis for "If I Should Die"

The New Mutants are relaxing around the television at the mansion. They are watching a John Wayne movie. Dani is on the phone with her mother. In this movie, the Indians are the bad guys. Rahne does her best to remind her teammates that Dani is also Indian and her view of history will be different than the movies. Dani suddenly sees the personal deities or symbols of death above her teammates. This upsets her and she runs out of the mansion for the barn. Dani takes Brightwind for a ride into the night sky. While on this ride she sees visions concerning herself and her Grandfather. She is a little girl and they are seated around a campfire. Cannonball finds Dani in the middle of one of her visions. Meanwhile back at the mansion, the New Mutants are attacked by a being calling himself the Beyonder. This being defeats each of them. Eventually, Dani is the only one left standing. She is determined to go out fighting and does so. With a wave of his hand the Beyonder erases her existence from her parents minds. He also erases the existence of Professor Xavier’s School.

Roberto in the meantime is being driven through midtown Manhattan when the traffic suddenly backs up. He sees that a crane has fallen and hears whispers from the crowd of a women being trapped under the crane. He decides to help out as Sunspot. She-Hulk comes along and assists with the rescue. The media pays attention to She-Hulk leaving Sunspot to feel like a failure once more. A policeman tells him that the crane started slipping before She-Hulk arrived and that he and the women owe their lives to Sunspot's timely intervention. Upon returning to the car, Roberto decides to pay a visit to his mom at their family home in Rio de Janeiro, Roberto also forgets all about his teammates.
