I know that the Ambassador will have a hard time convincing the government to fulfill all our wishes, but its a start."</strong>This was something she had been wanting to do ever since they were all tagged as weapons of mass destruction, and at times it had been very frustrating to feel helpless. But at last they were making headway.<br/><br/>Because the sun was just setting, it wasn't either too cold or too hot. It was just right. Jean felt the breeze lightly brush her red hair and she swiped it off her face with her free hand.<strong>"This is how we do it, David."</strong>She continued,<strong>"This is how we build a better future."</strong>There had been times when Magneto's way seemed like the only way for mutants to have freedom and equal rights. However, for the first time in longer than she had realized, Jean felt optimistic about their future. A future where there would be no genetic war. Each side would have to compromise at some point. That's part of living together as humans.<br/><br/><strong>"I was so excited, I called my mom to tell her the news. She was thrilled. I'm hoping I can get to visit them soon."</strong>Jean shook her head with a crooked smile,<strong>"It seems silly, doesn't it? Such a trivial thing most people take for granted and we have to fight for it."</strong>Work had taken her time away from her family and she would usually refuse any perks to visit them because she felt she was needed at the institute. Yet now she felt like she could actually relax, just a little, before the real fight began.
