The only reason we have to say she was supposed to have died at all is Hiro.  Hiro says this because there is a newspaper report of a cheerleader in Texas who saves someone in a fire, who then is later reported dead with her head cut open a la Sylar. That someone is Jackie - not Claire.  Claire is not the person who saved anyone in a fire as far as the media is concerned. The picture Isaac draws in 9th Wonders is equivocal as to who is dead - as there is trauma to the head. Hiro believes it was Claire who dies because he believes that Sylar regenerates - but Hiro may be wrong.Hiro believes that he stabbed Sylar and that he regenerated and blew up. Hiro may be wrong about that too.The problem of course is that Jackie is the explanation for the dead cheerleader, that Claire may never have been caught by Sylar at all if Hiro had done nothing to try and stop it - and there may be some other explanation for a regenerating Sylar (as in - was never Sylar to begin with, Linderman heals him on the sly - *something* ) and  - above all - Peter still has a scar.So no. It's not obvious that Claire was saved just because she's alive - because she may never have been killed in the first place. Ok?Worse, we have HRG turning in future Hiro just because he believes that Peter Petrelli saved Claire at homecoming. The Company and Nathan and all the rest know about Claire for events afterward in "our" timeline, so why would knowing about Homecoming and that Claire was saved there lead HRG to turn Hiro in?Unless of course in the alternate future, nobody was supposed to know that it wasn't Claire who died at homecoming.</blockquote>
