Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch was found by their father and an early age and were recruited into the X-Men. Quicksilver took part in the X-Men's first battle with Apocalypse's Horsemen. When they returned home, Quicksilver found out that his sister had died at the hands of Nemesis.
Quicksilver was with the X-Men when they saved the mutant Bishop from Unus and the Infinites. After hearing Bishop's claim that their world wasn't supposed to exist, Quicksilver, like others took Bishop for a raving lunatic. Even after Rogue touched Bishop, Quicksilver still didn't believe the stranger's words. Regardless of this Quicksilver carried on with his duties.
Quicksilver led a team of X-Men to help in the Great Sentinel Airlift, where the giant mutant-hunting Sentinels would evacuate a large number of humans from Apocalypse's America. When Dazzler fired open a Sentinel's head, Quicksilver lodged an over-ride disc in its terminal casing. This disc would carry a virus on to the other Sentinels so they would attack the X-Men. The Brotherhood however showed up earlier and modified the virus so it would help them and not the X-Men. Quicksilver and Dazzler were saved from the Sentinels by Exodus and Storm. Quicksilver went to confront Abyss and was accompanied by Storm whom he had started to have feelings for. Quicksilver was able to defeat Abyss and they returned the child to his family and helped continue with the airlift. Their feelings for each other started to grow further.
When the X-Men returned to their home to find it destroyed, Quicksilver went to see Angel where he told him that Magneto was taken to Apocalypse and Bishop was sent to the Madri temple in Quebec City. Going against his emotions, Quicksilver decided to go after Bishop for the sake of his father's plans. Arriving at the Madri temple, Quicksilver and Banshee encountered Jamie Madrox, whose duplicates made up most of the Madri. Given Madrox's emotional state, Quicksilver found him to be a helpless pawn of Apocalypse and couldn't bring himself to kill him. After Madrox commited suicide, and Banshee and Abyss killed each other, Quicksilver and Storm returned home with Bishop.
Quicksilver and the X-Men stormed Apocalypse's Citadel and had Destiny and Illyana Rasputin send Bishop back in time to set things right. Quicksilver was last seen rescuing Illyana from Apocalypse's guards.
