About

The Second Coming

Four years into the future, Peter is chased into a building, where Claire aims a gun at him. The two argue about the events of the past four years, which include:

• Nathan telling the world about the existence of evolved humans.
• Camps being set up to hold evolved humans.
• Evolved humans going through experiments.
• Peter going into hiding.
• Peter having the ability of illusion.
• Peter getting a scar across his face.

Claire shoots at Peter, but Peter stops time, takes her gun, and teleports to March 20, 2007 to stop the press conference.

In the present day, after Peter stops Nathan's press conference, Angela tells him that he has changed the future for the worse.

Hiro teleports to the future to see what happens if he does not retrieve the formula that was stolen by Daphne. He witnesses a future in which:

• Future Hiro acquires the formula.
• Future Ando uses his ability to kill future Hiro, then takes the formula.
• Tokyo is destroyed as buildings collapse.

The Butterfly Effect

In the present day, Future Peter attempts to create a string web to return to his future. Angela comes into Peter's apartment and asks why he hasn't returned to where he came. Peter tells her that he's busy saving the world, and can't go back yet. Angela tells future Peter that by stopping the press conference he has let Sylar take Claire's ability. A chain of events happens because of this and eventually lets twelve evolved humans from Level 5 escape.

I Am Become Death

Future Peter and Present Peter teleport four years into the future, where people fly and have abilities. During his time in the future, and through Matt's dream, many of the heroes are now in different situations than before:

• Matt has married Daphne, they have a daughter, Daniella and have adopted Molly.
• Daphne, Claire, Knox, and the Haitian are part of an organization that hunts down "villains".
• Peter is known as a terrorist and murderer since he blew up Pinehearst a year earlier. (Resistance)
• Nathan is married to Tracy and is now the President of the United States. He is aware of the paintings that show the Earth destroyed but has Congress create an army of people with abilities.
• Sylar (now going by Gabriel) is raising his son Noah in Costa Verde, and is trying to control his murderous appetite.
• Mohinder has mutated further and covers his face. He lives in the darkness of his lab.

Graphic Novel: Resistance

After a terrorist attack at the Pinehearst Company three years in the future, Claire tries to hunt down the leaders of the attack. At the terrorists' headquarters she finds her uncle, who is the mastermind of the terror group. After he disappears, she swears revenge on him for what he did.
