A boy named Lucas was visiting his mother in their home in London. He told her an incredible story about a mutant named Leo. In 2029, no mutants had been born in 25 years, and Leo was suffering as his healing ability was failing. He was working as a limousine driver in Manchester, and he and mutant tracker Caliban were taking care of 90-year-old Charles Xavier, founder of the X-Men, in an abandoned smelting plant in northern Scotland. Xavier suffered from dementia that caused him to have destructive telepathic seizures, one of which injured 600 people and killed several X-Men the year prior.

Leo reluctantly agreed to escort Gabriela López, a former nurse for biotechnology corporation Alkali-Transigen, and a young girl named Lila to Eden, a supposed refuge near the Scottish-English border. After finding Gabriela dead, Leo was confronted by her killer Donald Pierce, who was Transigen's cyborg chief of security. Pierce was looking for Lila, who had stowed away in Leo's limo and had powers similar to his. She, Leo, and Xavier escaped Pierce and his Reavers, but Caliban was captured. Pierce tortured Caliban into tracking Lila. Xavier and Leo watched a video on Gabriela's phone, revealing that Transigen created Lila and other children from mutant DNA to become weapons. The children proved challenging to control and were to be executed, but Gabriela and other nurses helped some escape. Xavier revealed to Leo that Lila was created from Leo's DNA and called her Leo's daughter.

In Liverpool, Leo discovered that Eden appeared in Lila's X-Men comic and told her it was fictional. The Reavers arrived, but Xavier had a seizure that incapacitated everyone except Leo and Lila, who killed the attackers and injected Xavier with his medication. As they fled, Dr. Zander Rice, the head of Transigen, arrived to help Pierce.

Leo, Lila, and Xavier helped farmer Will Munson and his family after a traffic incident, accepting an offer of dinner at their home, where Leo drove off enforcers from a corporate farm. Rice unleashed X-24, a mindless clone of Leo in his prime created as Transigen's ultimate weapon. X-24 murdered Will's family and Xavier before capturing Lila. Caliban set off grenades, killing himself and several Reavers but only injuring Pierce. Leo was outmatched by X-24, but Will pinned X-24 with his truck before dying from his injuries. Leo and Lila escaped with Xavier's body.

After burying Xavier, Leo passed out. Lila took him to a doctor and persuaded him to prove that the site in North Yorkshire was not Eden. There, they found Rictor and other Transigen children preparing to cross into Scotland. Lila found an adamantium bullet that Leo had kept since he escaped from the Weapon X facility, which he once considered using to commit suicide. Leo decided not to accompany them, to Lila's dismay.

When the Reavers ambushed the children, Leo took an overdose of a serum given to him by Rictor that temporarily enhanced his healing abilities and boosted his strength. With Lila's help, he slaughtered most of the Reavers before the serum wore off. As Pierce held Rictor at gunpoint, Rice told Leo, who killed Rice's father years ago at the Weapon X facility, that no new mutants had been born due to genetically engineered crops created by Transigen and distributed through the world's food supply. Leo, having found a gun, shot Rice dead and injured Pierce. X-24 fought Leo as the children combined their powers to kill Pierce and the remaining Reavers.

Laura was surprised to hear this and became emotional. They traveled together and reached the place where the other mutant children were being held by Transigen. As they approached, they saw that Transigen soldiers were there to stop them. Logan was too weak to fight, but Laura was determined to save her friends.

She used her powers and fought with the soldiers, with Logan's help. They were able to defeat the soldiers, but Logan was badly injured. Laura realized that she had to be strong and use her powers to save him. She carried Logan and took him to a doctor who could heal him.

Logan was grateful for Laura's help and realized that she was not just a weapon, but a loving daughter. They left the place together and Logan decided to live a peaceful life with Laura. He knew that he couldn't change the past, but he could make a better future for Laura.

Years passed, and Logan and Laura lived together happily. Laura grew up to be a strong and kind person, and Logan was proud of her. They both knew that they were mutants, but they didn't let that define them.

Logan passed away peacefully in Laura's arms, and Laura knew that he was finally at peace. She buried Logan with honor and respect, and left a small cross on his grave, honoring him as the last of the X-Men.

Laura continued to live her life, helping other mutants and fighting against injustice. She knew that Logan's spirit would always be with her, guiding her on the right path.
