Sat in a New York diner dressed in casual clothes watching the bin men ands treat cleaners do their thing. Wash away the grime of this great city. but things weren't great. She was Kitty Pryde and life sucked, she was mutant and a freedom fighter. Former X-man and Guardian of The Galaxy and finance of Starlord peter Quill, now she was back living at home with her Mom. Reality sucked, she was unemployed and broke, but it was nice seeing her Mom, who now had a boyfriend and a cat...Kitty liked the cat much more. Her mom wasn't too thrilled she brought her pet dragon Lockheed back with her from space. She had been in space frigging space, got swept up in it all and engaged to a hunky Han Solo Space pirate...but the thing was...when she had a recent near death experience she didn't see his face but her first love....Piotr....her Russian hunk who broke her heart more then once. But she loved him, no matter how hard she tried she did. Now in her mid twenty's (yeesh that was scary to admitt) She was starting to see life diffently but the more things changed the more they stayed the same.<br/><br/>Mutants were still hated and hunted, even with the inclusion of Inhumans Mutants were still low on the pecking order. Infact things were worse because Inhumans were wiping out Mutants with their terrain clouds, Mutants weren't been born, they were on the verge of being extinct and Charles Xaviers dream was dead. So was he, so many of the X-men family were no more. Charles, Scott, Jean, Banshee, Jamie Maddox, Feral to name a few. But they solidred on, what else could they do? But the X-men weren't together anymore and hadn't been for six months, not since Doctor Doom attempted to try and reshape the universe in his image, but luckily the Fantastic Four were able to stop him, one last time.<br/><br/>But the *hero* community was divided and many old heroes were gone with newer shiner versions in their place. A new African American Captain America, a Lady Thor, a new Spider person popping up every five minutes, a New Hulk, A new Ms Marvel, a New Iron Man, a new Nova. It was kinda crazy and all the heroes Kitty had grown up with were gone. The older heroes like Carol Danvers and Tony Stark finding excuses for a second Civil War. It made Kittys heart hurt to think of it. The X-men were gone, Ororo had gone back home to Africa saying she was "Too Tired to fight anymore" and the others were trying to live normal lives. But Kitty had reached out to them because she needed them, the world still needed the X-men. But then she went missing and that's what got Kittys attention, it got her very scared very quick.<br/><br/>First she had reached out to Rogue, ironic, given they were never that close. But the southern belle had really stepped up to the mark, recently becoming an Avenger along with Havok (before half his face got burned off and he want crazy). Rogue had been livening at the Avengers mansion downtown along with Wasp, Doctor Voodoo, Cable, Quicksilver and Deadpool. Kitty had reached out to Quicksilver as well even though he was technically a Inhuman now both he and his sister Wanda had been enemies' and then ally's to the X-men. But their farther had gone missing and even though Magneto wasn't their blood farther they were still connected to him, as such Kitty had emailed Pietro and told him to bring his sister along.<br/><br/>Next on her list was Nightcrlawer, Kurt, sweet Kurt, he had been helping out at the local shelter downtown and working with St.Marys Church. When she told him what it was about she knew he would come. Then she reached out to Psylocke, Betsy had been over in Switzerland....maybe on a modelling job, given she was a great beauty, but she needed her skills and a telepath she trusted. Next was Warren Worthington, Betsey's ex, he was still coming to terms with being Apocalypse's vessel but he was apparently doing much better and was running his family's cooperate empire and was back in his penthouse. She might have mentioned Psylocke in her email to him, crafty but clever. Next was Beast, Hank McCoy she knew he`d been working on a cure for the Inhuman mist's which made mutants sterile she knew he was busy but she pleaded with him over SKYPE his family needed him more. Gambit was harder to track down given his profession as a thief, but Kitty was a master hacker and she found him and may have dropped Rogues name in the email. Last but not least she contacted Piotr and just told him Storm was missing and he replied very bluntly he was on his way over from Russia.<br/><br/>So the X-men were reforming, several key mutants had been abducted. Storm, Magneto, Sabastian Shaw, Callisto and Sabertooth. Kitty needed to know why especially given Storm was like a big sister to her, she knew the Xmen were in pain, they were tired from years of fighting but she couldn't do it alone. She needed them, they needed each other. She sipped her coffee and waited some of them she hadn't seen in over a year, she hoped they would come, all of them....any of them....she hoped the others were ok like Bobby, Laura, Jubilee, Bishop, Forge, Illyana but they had all disappeared off the map too. Katherine waited and quietly prayed to God someone would soon join her.
