Cyclops: Lazarus

Film 14 of the official Underworld Productions Marvel Cinematic Universe

Scott wakes and goes down stairs to see the mansion still intact. Jean is still alive and she lets him know quickly that not everything is fixed, despite the timeline being saved, Xavier's powers were strong enough to keep him in a coma even through an entire reverse of the timeline, and allow the X-Men who were still alive during the final fight with Sinister to keep their memories. Now both Scott and Jean have to get him out of the coma. Jean tries but to both their surprise she can't, no matter how strong she is, but she does find out the only one who can get him out is the one who put him in the coma, Nathaniel Essex, Mr. Sinister. Jean manages to use Cerebro to track down Essex to an apartment in Harlem where they find a normal guy. He tells them he still has some memory of what happened and is fine with helping them, as long as they let him use Cerebro to unlock his dormant mutant gene that he does know about. With no other choice Scott agrees and they head back to the mansion where Jean has to use her powers to put both Scott and Nathaniel in Xavier's mind. Once in there they realize the problem, Sinister gave the dream demon, Nightmare a free pass into Xavier's head. They have to use the dream world against Nightmare and stop him. The movie ends with them getting Nightmare out of his head but just then Essex reveals he didn't need Cerebro, he needed the rest of his memories that are in Xavier's mind. He leaves and Scott wakes up and tells Charles they have a problem.
