The path of Warren Worthington of this universe seemingly followed the same of his Earth-616 counterpart until the day when Beast from present-day Earth-616 traveled to their universe in order to inform them they needed to return with him to the future. Despite Warren's reluctance, the team accompanied Beast to a future where Cyclops had killed Charles Xavier, and Jean Grey was dead as well (with the school now named after her). After the team had confronted the future Cyclops and helped save the life of the future Beast, the team (under Jean's leadership) decided to stay. Warren was the most reluctant on this decision, believing it could only lead to disaster (and also didn't want to know anything about his future self). Despite this, he agreed to stay until the problems in the time were solved.
Later, Warren did meet his future self and was incredibly confused as to how he had become this way (particularly about his metal wings). Meeting his future self, and the fact that no one was willing to explain to him why he had come to be that way, Warren panicked and attempted to return to his time alone. Jean Grey used her powers to alter Warren's emotions and calm him down, to the dismay of the other X-Men.
Despite this, Warren continued to doubt the mission of his fellow X-Men, and the future School, doubting the truth of future Beast's statements of impending mutant genocide at the hands of future Cyclops. When future Cyclops and his X-Men came to the School to look for recruits, Warren decided to join them, telling the others that they were the only ones fighting for mutantkind in this future.
The rest of the team later joined Cyclops' team as well, following conflict between Wolverine's X-Men and the future versions of the X-Men and Brotherhood at Cape Citadel. Not long after becoming members of Cyclops's school, the young X-Men invited X-23 into their ranks after saving her from the mutant-hating religious group named Purifiers. X-23 and Angel hit it off, and started an amorous relationship.
Led by Kitty Pryde (Shadowcat), the Young X-Men teamed up with the Guardians of the Galaxy to retrieve a powerful artifact called the Black Vortex, from J’Son of Spartax (now called Mister Knife), the father of Star-Lord. After retrieving the Black Vortex, Star-Lord and Kitty Pryde gathered both the Guardians of the Galaxy and the X-Men at Spartax to decide what to do with such a powerful item. The heroes were tracked down by Mister Knife's cosmically-empowered Slaughter Lords and overpowered. Gamora, Beast, and Angel submitted to the Black Vortex in order to face the Slaughter Lords, and began to attempt to empower the entire universe. After coming into conflict with the Accuser Corps, the heroes were convinced by Magik and Rocket Raccoon to fight J’son, and help save Spartax. Before getting rid of the Vortex, some of the cosmically empowered heroes decided to remove their cosmic powers, but Angel was not one of them.
Sometime after returning to Earth, the young X-Men decided to part ways and lay low for a while with the emergence of a new wave of anti-mutant hysteria and the beginning of
the M-Pox crisis. Angel and X-23, now going by the alias of Wolverine, went vacationing to Vail, Colorado. They were called in months later by Beast to reunite the X-Men (minus Jean Grey and with the additions of Genesis and Oya), in order to go on a road trip, and
help out people across the globe wherever it was needed.
