Synopsis for "Mojo Worldwide: Part 1"

In the Mojoverse, "a really strange parallel dimension governed by ratings and viewership (so, not that different from Hollywood)", Mojo, despite killing the writer who proposed it, is thrilled by the new script offered to him, so he orders Major Domo to execute it.

At the Xavier Institute for Mutant Education and Outreach, in Central Park, all of the current X-Men teams (the younger generation, led by Jean Grey; the older generation, led by Kitty Pride; and the students of the school) are playing softball. Suddenly, three gigantic, flying, golden obelisks appear from the sky, approaching New York City. Jean Grey immediately starts giving directives to her team, but is silenced by Kitty Pride, who takes the reins of the situation, creating teams to monitor each crash. Team 1 (consisting of Kitty Pride, Bloodstorm, Rachel Grey and Scott Summers) go to Lexington Avenue; team 2 (Storm, Logan, Angel and Iceman) go to Times Square; Team 3 (Nightcrawler, Jimmy Hudson, Beast and Colossus) go to Washington Square Park. The remaining mutants are assigned with maintaining order. Jean seems annoyed with Kitty's "aggressive" leadership.

Each team arrives at their assigned obelisk. Rachel establishes a psychic connection with the other teams, so that everyone knows what's happening to the others. The mysterious objects are cool to the touch despite their apparent atmospheric entry. Suddenly, from the top of the obelisks an energy dome is produced, trapping each team in a small area. None of the mutants' powers have an effect against the energy walls, Kurt's teleportation included.

Something weird happens: each group suddenly finds itself in a different location, getting a costume change accordingly. Team 1 is in Rachel Grey's future: she starts feeling an odd feeling of turning back to being a mutant-hunter. Team 2 is in Asgard, in a snowy setting. Team 3 is still in New York, but by night and they are attacked by classic Sentinels.

Kurt tells the others this is no teleportation, though. The reality of the situation is that they haven't physically left, but have been taken back to some of the "greatest hits" in the X-Men history, the "legacy" they'll have to survive again. This was the Mojo's script: worldwide people will follow the X-Men's struggle and place their bets on their favorite teams. With Mojo's words, "This is going to be uncanny!"
