===Panacea joins the Undersiders===
Imp proves important in getting Panacea to join when the Undersiders rescue her from the Slaughterhouse 9's initiation, being able to convince her due to Tattletale realising that Panacea cannot respond to rational reasoning in her state. However, Amy doesn't change sides so much as be kept in "suspension" by the Undersiders, with her not fully joining and instead only helping under a number of increasing codes and rules, such as fixing people modified by Bonesaw, and mostly refuses to use her power in large part.

With Panacea, the Slaughterhouse are ousted and broken, Bonesaw is taken out of the picture, and only Cherish, Siberian and Jack Slash escapes, with Jack not learning of [[Dinah]]'s end of the world prophecy. Glory Girl is not transformed into [[the Wretch]] by Amy, leaves to Philadelphia to get long-term help due to the changes to her brain, and [[New Wave]] escalates against the Undersiders, believing that Panacea has been kidnapped and possibly brainwashed by Skitter or Tattletale, or Mastered by Regent. New Wave tries to gain help from [[the Guild]], but are initially denied for various reasons. However Coil takes the brief absence while New Wave is out-of-town to recruit more capes to keep the Heroes outnumbered, and to be more "chaotic" to make the Undersiders and Travellers look more acceptable by comparison. The chaos capes, such as [[Damsel]], [[Blasto]], and [[Barrow|Lost Garden]] start to congregate in Brockton Bay and launch various attacks against visiting Heroes, which results in the Guild agreeing to step in, with the PRT treating Brockton Bay as something that the Heroes need to win to boost morale.

The Undersiders lay low to avoid the increased surveillance and the Thinkers trying to find them, and to help support Panacea and Grue. Coil has them release Shatterbird to the PRT, then uses moles in the PRT to have Shatterbird escape. Shatterbird, without Jack's influence, forms her own flock of Independent Villains, including Damsel, to oppose the Undersiders. Glory Girl returns mostly fixed and, seeing the consequences of Panacea only fixing Bonesaw victims, reaches out to her.

Here the timeline can go down one of two major roads:
===='''1: Panacea Leaves'''====
If Panacea walks away from the city's conflicts, unable to be convinced by Tattletale to join the Undersiders and use her powers, the small wars are won and the city isn't condemned. New Wave and several Independent Capes fold into the Protectorate/Wards. Shatterbird's flock is ousted from the city and becomes almost a second Slaughterhouse Nine. Coil as his Thomas Calvert identity becomes PRT Director of Brockton and has Dinah as among the new recruits, seizing control of the city's cape element in exchange for sacrificing leadership of it. Cauldron decides that the city's Project Terminus has failed and become free to step in without fear of ruining the experiment. They kill Noelle, Trickter leaves, the Travellers are returned home under the condition of becoming Cauldron agents on Aleph, and the Triumvirate enters and cleans up the rest of the city. The Triumvirate is still outed as connected to Cauldron.

Panacea and Glory Girl reconnect, leave New Wave and join the Guild. Panacea slowly becomes more comfortable using her powers. The Undersiders leave and Skitter becomes intent on dealing with the "monsters" due to some really grisly & irredeemable things she did in Guild-occupied Brockton Bay and the memories of the Slaughterhouse and Shatterbird's flock(along with some two-way influence Panacea had on her and she did Panacea). She leaves her dad and Brockton, and throws herself into more conflict trying to find answers (i.e Shatterbird's connection to Cauldron, Cauldron in general, things Tattletale picked up regarding the Triumvirate). She and the Undersiders may possibly contact Cauldron and are asked to work to help the latter, with the Undersiders picking up new recruits and giving Cauldron Vials to some of their unpowered allies.

Jack Slash makes a new team using Cherish to turn Heroes into Villains, and they run into Shatterbird's flock, the latter who has now become an international villain group and has recruited Trickster. The two groups plan to reunite at Endgame and target the most powerful capes, including Panacea and the Undersiders. Many of the Undersiders die in time for Endgame and it is only with Golem stepping in late that it doesn't become a complete loss. Jack and Shatterbird's groups either draws Scion's attention with their actions, or target Scion outright. Cauldron, believing Shatterbird to be the Broadcaster, tries to intervene and turn the group against Scion. They fail, and Scion instead works with Jack's and Shatterbird's groups - some of the nastiest individuals around, all together and working in concert, with Jack guiding Scion.

===='''2: Panacea Stays'''====
If the constant conflicts causes Panacea to break down, she is convinced to stay in the city and start using her powers by Tattletale. The Undersiders then begin hitting back harder and with new tools given by Panacea, and become the main focus in the city. Coil dislikes how they aren't doing what he needs them to do, suspects they want to rescue Dinah, and plans let the Heroes keep beating the Undersiders down before choosing a moment when they weak to deal with them once and for all. The Undersiders can only survive if they have been modified by Panacea to be stronger and fitter along with some background processes. Tattletale has the full-time job of dealing with Panacea. Grue doesn't take well to the physical alterations and leaves, with Imp following not far behind. Trying to survive against everyone, the Undersiders become the chaotic element they were initially set-up to oppose.

The Guild has Brockton Bay condemned, having walls erected, everyone evacuated, and power and water shut off. Coil releases Noelle on Brockton as a final act before leaving to begin anew elsewhere, and regardless of whether the other Undersiders also leave or stay, Taylor stubbornly tries to build something of the mess while everything crumbles around her. Panacea feels that the Undersiders lied to her about giving her the support she needed, which she takes as proof she was right after all about 'Bad is bad, and nothing is redeemable'. In the ensuring breakdown, she commits several atrocities on the level of her turning Victoria's body into the [[The Wretch]] in the canon timeline, including doing it against several Undersiders. Although Taylor tries to reason with her, Panacea is only stopped by Jack Slash, who convinces her to join him as Bonesaw's replacement and plans to access the Birdcage and unlock the full potential of everyone within, which a broken Panacea agrees to and provides the resources needed.

Grue, who has since joined the Protectorate, returns with Golem and joins Skitter in fighting back. Although Panacea will listen to Golem, it is not enough and very much too late.<ref name="PU">[https://redd.it/6nurxq Speculation by Wildbow on Reddit]</ref>
