Jean's Death[]
When Jean became possessed by the Phoenix Force, Scott tried to reason with her. He failed and she tried to kill him. This led to Wolverine stabbing Jean and killing her. Scott then began to hate Logan.
Leader of the X-Men[]
Professor X told Scott that since he was dying, he wanted Scott to lead the X-Men. He did as he was told and became leader. When Emma Frost joined, he began a relationship with her, but he did not love her like he loved Jean. He eventually forgave Wolverine and they became friends. Due to Havok's connections, Scott met his childhood hero, Captain America and they became great friends as well. Scott declined the offer to join the Avengers, saying his place was with the X-Men.
