Colossus‘ story didn’t end there, though. An alien named Ord had learned from precognitive visions that, a few years down the road, his home, a place called Breakworld, would be destroyed by a mutant, most probably an X-Man.  That’s why he traveled to Earth in order to stop this event before it could happen. Ord snatched Piotr from the morgue and replaced him with someone else’s body, which was then cremated. While Shadowcat took these ashes to Russia, Ord revived Colossus with futuristic alien technology and kept him locked up in a prison cell in his base, to run tests and experiments on him. Every few days would Piotr be gassed, only to wake up strapped to some lab equipment. Eventually, he lost count of the time he spent there, no longer being able to tell whether his was living through this ordeal for weeks, months or even years. Ord, however, found what he was looking for, as he discovered a way to adapt and modify the cure for the Legacy Virus still in Colossus‘ system into a formula that would erase mutant powers.
Working together with a sub-division of SHIELD and a world famous geneticist, Ord offered this cure for mutant powers to the public and a large number of mutants were willing to undergo that treatment in exchange for the chance at a normal life. Naturally, this aroused the X-Men’s suspicions and, when they checked out Ord’s base, Shadowcat accidentally found her way to the place where Colossus was held. The rest of the team were as shocked as she, when they became aware of their believed-dead teammate. Ord’s machinations uncovered, SHIELD severed their ties to him, though the damage is done and some samples of the “mutant cure“ remain. [Astonishing X-Men (3rd series) #4-6]
It remains to be seen whether Colossus will suffer from any after-effects of his resurrection or his long imprisonment. However, it seems Shadowcat is more than willing to help him to get re-adjusted to being among the living again.
