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.&nbsp; &nbsp;

He didn't blame her for the manipulation in sliding Rogue's name at him in her email. He'd been working with Polaris, Lorna Dane and Quicksilver recently saving mutants from A.I.M. for Serval Industries, but when Kitty called him back to being an X Man he really couldn't say no. His heart still ached for Rogue no matter how many times their paths parted ways.<br><br>It isn't hard to slip in silently beside her, he was a master thief long before he had his mutation. "<strong>Mornin cher.</strong>" he glances around knowing it was his task to bring up everyone's mood, even the people he didn't know in this diner. "<strong>Everyone can relax...Gambit has returned</strong>." he says with his typical style and flare. He grins at the waitress with that cocky face that only he can get away with. "<strong>I know what you're t'inkin', ma petite. Dat Gambit...still de suave one, no?</strong>" he says as she brings over a menu. "<strong>I'll take de special and a coffee, black like my heart.</strong>" Gambit still had all his demons behind his black and violet eyes, he hadn't forgiven himself for any of what he'd done.<br><br>He turns back to Kitty. "<strong>You don't look like a little girl anymore. Is dat why you hav the weight of the world on your shoulders?</strong>"

They had never really been friends when the X-men had originally been together. So, when Wanda had told her she had a call from the X-Mansion, it was one of complete shock. Especially, when she found out whom it was from. Yet, when she decided to give her a chance and not&nbsp; hang up on the woman, she listened to what she had to say and agreed to help Kitty with the reforming the X-Men. At least since The Avengers didn't really need her right at that moment.<br><br>When she stepped into the small diner she had expected Kitty to be waiting, since she was usually a punctual woman but when she saw Remy there as well, she was a little surprised and a little unsure how she felt. It had been quite awhile since they had seen each other and if she remembered correctly the last time they had been in a room together they had, had a huge fight about his philandering ways! Which was nothing unusual.<br><br>Although, now as she looked at him as she entered the room, she couldn't help but wonder if he had grown up as much as the rest of them or if he was still the same old careless thief she knew.<br><br>After letting out a small breath, Rogue finally approached the table that the others were both sitting at and spoke, figuring she had ignored the two for long enough. <strong>"Swamp Rat! Surprised ta' see ya' here! Thaught ya' would be down south causin' trouble.<br><br>Kitty! On time as always!"</strong>

Of course, it had been at the behest of his Katya. She hadn't been that in a long time, but some things never changed.&nbsp; For him, she would always be the sweet little girl who had been friend to his sister and had developed a crush on him as a teenager.&nbsp; She was engaged now, or so he heard. It was not something he was happy of personally, but he was happy for her. She deserved to be happy. Everyone did. Mutants had a rough time, always had. So any happiness they could find for themselves was something hard earned and needed to be fought hard to protect.&nbsp; And that was something Piotr knew something about: protecting. It was what he did best, both as Piotr and as Collosus.&nbsp; Still as he arrived at the diner, his palms started to sweat. Why would that be? Well the only answer was simple. He would be seeing her again, for the first time since her engagement. He would have to congratulate her, it was only proper. Still how would he manage to do so without letting his mixed feelings show? Clearing his throat, he wiped his palm against his shirt and entered the diner. What would happen from here, was anyone's guess, but just seeing her, sitting there, made his mind drift back so many years.

The ever handsome Gambit aka Remy Le Beau. He was just as charming as she remembered and referred to her as cher making jokes to the few stragglers in the diner. Saying everyone could relax because Gambit had returned, on of his signature catchphrase's, he then ordered a cup of black coffee and made a joke it was like his heart. But anyone who knew Gambit knew he was all bark and no bite, he was a decent man, yes he made questionable choices but so had Logan. He told her she didn't look like alittle girl anymore and questioned why she had the weight of the world on her shoulders. In truth she was twenty three years old but she felt older these days and she had been through so much in her lifetime, loosing a parent, becoming a superhero,&nbsp; going off into space. She just smiled sadly, her smile agreed with him without saying as much. Reaching up and running her fingers through her long brown hair. <br><br>Then Rogue arrived, looking as sexy as ever, with tight and revealing clothes to show off her great body. The Southern Belle wasted no time in scorning Remy by calling him a swamp rat. Yet anyone who knew Rogue knew how much she loved Gambit, the two of them never could make it work (Just like her and Piotr) but that didn't mean the love wasn't still there. Kitty suddenly felt she shouldn't be here as a look was exchanged between Gambit and Rogue, her heart went out to them, she could feel the tension in the room between them. Rogue had been serving as a Avenger as part of the Unity Squad trying to breach the gap between Humans, Mutants and Inhumans. She was becoming a hero in a way that Beast had done when he was an Avenger and in doing so was actually helping the mutant cause even in a small way. "Its good to see you both. Kitty said with a warm smile towards the two former X-men. She was glad they came, even if it was just the three of them it mad her feel better. They had served together as X-men five years ago when Marrow had been a member, she had flirted up a storm with Gambit and she remembered how jealous Rogue had been at the time, even punched a hole in her bedroom wall which at the time was next to Kittys. And Gambit had always been jealous of Rogues *special* relationship with Magneto. Kitty wondered how Gambit would feel going on a mission to find the man he considered the rival for Rogues heart?<br><br>Rogue however downplayed the fact the public saw her as a *hero* and the fact the world never would. Just out of the corner of Kittys eye she spotted Wanda Maximoff the Scarlet Witch, she got up passed Gambit and Rogue to go over and greet her. It was good Wanda was here, it meant that she still valued her friendship with the X-men. Ironically Wanda like her twin brother Pietro had started out as a foe of the original team. But they realised how ruthless Magneto was back in those days and left the Brotherhood and went on to become Avengers. Wanda's life hadn't been easy, her mental breakdown showed the world how powerful she was, she nearly destroyed the mutant race, but she redeemed herself by helping to destroy the Phoenix force once and for all. Kitty had forgiven her and was just glad she was here and willing to fight alongside them once more. Kitty had a big welcoming smile on her face as she moved over towards the Scarlet Witch. She knew Wanda's relationship with Rogue was at best times *Rocky* and she didn't want that to put her off helping them.&nbsp; "Wanda! Its so good to see you, thank you for coming it means a lot." Kitty said warmly not knowing weather or not to hug the Scarlet Witch, she wanted to but just didn't have the courage to go through with it.&nbsp;

His life had changed drastically in the last six months, since the five original X-men (himself included) and rocked up from the past into the present the X-men had been faced to deal with some hard truths. While still running the loss of their mentor Charles Xavier (killed by their own Scott) these baby faced teenage X-me&nbsp; showed up. It was weird seeing Jean again (he realised how much he missed her) a young Cyclops, Young Beast and young Angel. Not to mention coming face to face with a younger irritating version of himself at the tender age of 14. Funny thing was his younger self had accelerated his power growth far quicker then he did, ok, maybe the shock of seeing the future did that as all of these *baby Xmen* had grown massively in power. But it was kinda emasculating seeing a younger version of yourself succeed you. Then the real kicker and Bobbys greatest fear came to pass. <br><br>His younger self decided to out him and come out as been Gay. Bobbys secret he had kept so close for so long. Now in his thirty's Bobby had resigned himself that with his bigot parent's he could never be both Gay and a Mutant, so he kept that part of himself buried, so much so he was starting to forget he had those thoughts as a kid. So now the cat was out of the bag and Bobby was outed, all his "romance's" with Lorna, Opal, Kitty, Rogue had been shown up for the falseness they were. He was mortified, he moved to the city got a job as a waiter and was living in a run down shitty apartment with rats. But he was at least living a normal life, then kitty (his last attempt at a straight relationship) got in touch with him asking for his help. It pulled at his heartstrings and young Mr Drake found himself walking here. The X-men were over, they were done, the death of Cyclops had pretty much signified that but yet here he was. A gluten for punishment that was him all over. When h got to the diner he saw an familiar face, Piotr Rasputin aka Colossus, standing outside the diner and clearly terrified as he was of walking in. Walking back to that part of his life he couldn't let go of even though it was probably in all of their best interest's if they kept away from each other. Bobby smiled and patted the much taller man on the back and stood next to him. "Rasputin." He said with a sad smile as he nodded towards the towering handsome man. Damm, why did Piotr have to wear such tight clothing, it was making all of Bobby's "gayness" go into overdrive. He cleared his throat and looked back in the diner. "Terrified as I am to walk in there?" He said knowing full well seeing Kitty Pryde again would have a profound effect on the Russian man.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;

Emma Frost thought as she looked through the window of the Diner that she'd gotten from an email with Kitty Pryde. Why she was even answering this little email was beyond her. Sure, she'd been with the X-men from time to time, her last stint leaving her broken hearted when she'd sparked her romance with Logan only to lose him to death. Yeah...that was right, she'd been positive the only way Logan would have left her was death, she'd even been told he was dead. So she'd left to find herself if you would. <br><br>That hadn't exactly worked out as well as she'd hoped but whatever did? She'd heard Magneto had disappeared recently and almost thought good riddance. Yes, she'd spent a stint with the brotherhood too at one point in her life, but really, who was counting sheep here? Being alone for as long as she had been, keeping herself under the radar of this hellish war, well, it had been nice, to be honest. No one to push her around, tell her what she should and shouldn't do. And now she was what? Coming back to this?<br><br>No, she'd only promised to hear her out right? Didn't mean she had to jump right back in the middle of this crap...did it? Sighing she pulled her purse higher up on her shoulder and pulled open the door to the diner and walked in, her head held high as she moved, heels clinking with every step against the tiled floor. Damn...she really should have rethought the shoes. But seriously, what could go wrong with gold alligator heels? As she approached, she gave them an aloof look. "So, guess I'm late after all huh?" She said before looking at them all. Gambit, Rogue, Iceman, quicksilver, Kitty, Wanda, Colossus...quite the ragtag bunch indeed.

It had sat nestled between agents begging her to return to the runway and spam. She almost ignored it. When she had opened it, she had only stared at its contents with uneasiness. Conflicting emotions had brought several emotions to the surface. The foremost trepidation. Too many reminders of the past and people who who could dredge up memories she tried hard to forget. In the end, it was the feeling of family that made her sigh. Her own family was a mess and it was hard to be around them but the X-men....they were a family she could not ignore, much like the face that stared back at her in the mirror. <br><br>Kwannon's face always looked back reminding her she would never be Betsy Braddock. Hence, her insistence at being called Elizabeth now. Her body was now familiar, her own, but sometimes she felt disconnected to the world. Loss had only made it worse. Relationships were a struggle and heartbreak a dull throb in her chest. If she went to the meeting, she knew wounds would be reopened. But even she knew she had to face things for anything to heal. She had slammed her laptop and threw it across the room, unknowingly putting a little psi force behind it. Even that little bit had shattered it into a million pieces and leaving a dent in the wall.<br><br>Elizabeth waited for the tears to come but none came. They had dried up a long time ago. Lately, she had drowned all her angst in her shadows, cutting into the Hand, or anything that reared its ugly head like a silent avenger but really she had just become a vigilante thug. It was not enough and had no purpose. Once upon a time the X-men had purpose. It was that glimmer of hope she clung to and had made her decision. She was tired of being lost and alone. Maybe she needed them more than she realized and it was the worth the risk. She hadn't made a decision but she wanted to give Kitty a chance and if anyone deserved to be heard out, it was Kitty.<br><br>Elizabeth found herself outside the diner, fashionably late and fashionably dressed. She maybe a sword toting badass in the wrong body but she still loved the fashion and glamour. When she wasn't attired in her fighting uniform, she was dressed to the nines. A throwback she would not relinquish from her time as someone rich, spoiled, and beautiful. She could see familiar faces through the windows and she almost hailed her taxi to stop but she was ever brave and steeled herself. <br><br>The bell rang overhead announcing her entrance and she strode forward as if she was walking the runway with a confidence she didn't really feel. She sat in an open seat and put her sunglasses on her head with a flourish and looked around, solemnly. She could feel the tension like a freshly plucked harp string. She threw up a mental shield just so she could get through this. <br><br>"Nice to see you, Kitty. Everyone," she said acknowledging everyone. She nodded to Emma, surprised to see her here at all. Since Logan's death....she didn't even want to think about it. Sometimes she thought she could still feel a resonance of the bond they had shared. It was hardly physical but you couldn't get that close and not feel...something. Death and pain was always a part of being an X-men and here she was, asking for more. They all were.<br>

How are you, Bobby? It's been a long time." But no matter what, he only had eyes for the girl who had once adored him. Had she been this age then, things would have been different of course, but she was a little girl then. Well to his eyes at least.&nbsp; Still, he wasn't here to moon over a missed opportunity.&nbsp; He was here because there was work to do.&nbsp; No rest for the weary. Right about then, he could use a good vodka. Not that he was a big drinker like so many of his countrymen. But alcohol did have a calming effect if used wisely. But it wouldn't do to meet old friends with the smell of alcohol on his breath.&nbsp; "I guess we should go in, rather than draw attention to ourselves out here. It's not about us after all, is it? It never is."<br><br>Opening the door, he let the other man enter first if he so chose before walking through the doorway. Moving slowly, almost woodenly towards the table where Katya sat. Taking a deep steadying breath he moved into the group of old friends.&nbsp; "Privet, staryye druz'ya," he said softly as he approached, translating for those who didn't understand his native tongue, "Hello, old friends." &nbsp;Try as he might, he couldn't turn his eyes away though. She still could mesmerize him after all these years. It was not going to be a good start to this endeavor if he couldn't deal with her.

She knew he was coming too but still she was surprised by him when he appeared out of nothing from behind.It took her a bit for her to react to the sudden hug, she was going to tell not to be showing around in public places and she was even performing a mantra with her hand to show him that he really shouldn't but then Kitty approached. "Kitty!, its been so long..." Wanda was one to be dealt with care, not only because of what her powers could do and had done but also for the instability of her mind, maybe that was the reason Kitty did not dare to come closer, or perhaps she had other more personal reasons.<br><br>But whatever it was Wanda clearly was very excited about this reunion and did not contained herself to demonstrate it, "it's so good to see you, all of you, again" she didn't say anymore and cheerfully advanced toward the petite woman and hugged her tightly for a few seconds leaning her head against hers before she moved on to greet everyone else.<br><br>

So much for laying low and keeping a low profile. Pietro was brash and arrogant and that was a known fact about him. Kitty just smiled in his direction. Having the Maximoffs with them was a good thing however, both had strong power sets and knew how to use them in the field. Both showed a loyalty by coming here today, as primary Avengers she knew they would always answer the call of that team first and foremost. In truth neither of them had served as X-men but Quicksilver had been a member of X-factor recently along with Gambit. SO maybe those two would have much to talk about. "Im really glad you're here Wanda, your brother too." Kitty said in all honesty. <br><br>She left the two siblings to catch up and she saw another familiar face enter the diner Emma Frost. The two of them had always clashed when they served as X-men together. But recently they had gotten on, up until the point Cyclops had been killed by Doctor Doom. Emma was a closed book, she was still filthy rich and could do whatever she wanted but yet she choose to come here. Maybe it was boredom or maybe she genially cared about finding the other missing X-men. Kitty forced a smile in Frosts she&nbsp; direction, she wanted to trust her but she just found it so dam hard. "Emma." she noted with a nod as she looked at the stunning blond woman. <br><br>Psylocke was next to enter, the British mutant in the body of a Japanese Assassin. Kitty was far closer to Betsy as she had worked alongside her brother Brian Braddock in the&nbsp; Excalibur team. "Thanks for coming Betsy." Kitty said with a much warmer tone then the one she just greeted Emma with. She was glad another telepath was here to keep a watch on Frost in case she planned on misbehaving. Then her heart stopped as two of her ex boyfriends walked in, the first was Bobby Drake aka Iceman, who she only dated&nbsp; for a few weeks. But it was never serious, and he had recently come out as been gay. Something which Kitty had suspected herself towards the end of their romance. The second was the tall and handsome Piotr Rasputin who was her first love. She blushed when he came into the room, despite all the anger between them and the hurt he still had that effect on her. The only ones missing were Hank McCoy, Warren Worthington and Kurt Wagner, she hoped the boys would turn up soon so they could have a proper family reunion and get this talk under way. "Everyone order food if youre hungry." She told them with a warm smile.&nbsp;

Many of his old friends were there, Kitty, Rogue, Gambit, Emma, Psylcoke along with former Avengers Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch. he nervously smiled at them with his hands stuffed in his jean pockets and he breathed out slowly. How many of them knew his personal business? He guessed both Betsy and Emma would know what with them been telepath's and all. But he gathered the X-men rumour mill was in full swing and the others knew as well. He decided to actually go over and speak to Emma directly. He made his way over to the stunning blond and gently pulled her to one side. "Its good to see you Emma." He said in all honesty and a sad smile. "Im sorry about Scott and Logan. I know towards the end Scott did things that made us a lot of us mad as Hell. But I still loved him you know? Him, Hank and Warren were like brothers to me. I get the feeling some of us are letting our anger towards his actions cloud how we really felt about him. Anyway, I just wanted to say im here if you need to talk to someone. I think all of us are feeling the loss of both of them." He said genially offering the hand of friendship. He nervously cleared his throat. "So er....you probably know already but...im...er...well im Gay. The iceman from the past kidna outed me along with past Jean Grey. But if figured you knew all along like she did right? After all you were in my head a few years back....so I want to say thank you for never outing me, that was very kinde of you." He said as her looked down at the floor, he could barely look at her, God this was hard to talk about. "Anyway, you once said I would never reach my full potential with powers until I accepted myself, im guessing this was what you were talking about?" He asked her almost hopefully as he looked up at her once more.&nbsp; &nbsp;

She was sat opposite the former X-man known as Wolverine. Recently she found him with her organization HYDRA and brought him back to life, using top science from AIM they were able to get him out of the adimantium shell that encased him. His healing factor was back and he was in full fighting mode. He was not happy to have been brought back by her and her organization. But Viper had told him why she had brought him back. In his blood was the cure to the Terrigan Mysts which was making the mutant race infertile, but a terrible secret was that the Inhumans, even the royal family knew of this and wanted to exterminate the mutant race so they would be the domain species on Earth. This was information Hydra had acquired&nbsp; and it was a real game changer. Hydra didn't want the Inhumans or the Mutants to rise to the top of the food chain. Viper was hoping that the X-men would start a full on war with the Inhuamns once this was realised to them. Logan had a lot of respect within that community and he was known for his berserk rage and slicing first asking questions never. Coupled that with the fact several key mutants were missing such as Magneto and all points were going towards the Inhuman Royal family.&nbsp; "Well I wish our time together could have been longer my darling. But I have things to do and I don't fancy watching you slice your way through more of my men." She laughed looking at the power restraint's he had on his wrists to keep him from killing her there and then. "I think its aful what the Inhumans are doing to the mutant race, haven't you all suffered enough?" She teased him wickedly. She was making him wait, she told him that his friends were meeting here but she wanted him to wait, she wanted to tease him just abit longer, she was cruel that way.

The moment Emma Frost showed up he used his Molecular Acceleration power to create a static field around his mind.

Of course if they tried he would feel free to use his powers on them as well.<br><br>He never understood everyone and their hangups on sexuality or race. Maybe it was because he was Cajun of a mixed rich ancestry and a mutant who had black eyes and purple pupils, but Bishop was Bishop and Bobby was Bobby. He would treat them as they treated him. Actually with both Psylocke and Scarlet Witch here he was wondering what purpose he served. <br><br>He'd wait to see if anyone else showed up. Kitty wouldn't invite someone as divisive as Emma Frost unless she was needed. Remi figured he'd hear her out before deciding whether to stay or not. If Scarlet Witch could wave her hands once and deal with this...well he had mutants to save on a team that did need him.

It was a family reunion but in the best possible sense. Bobby did feel the love in this room even though they had lost so much, Charles, Logan, Scott were three of the big patriarchs' in the family and hey were all gone now. It meant he had to grow up and act like man, not just him but Gambit and Colossus too. he kept looking at the door, he knew both Hank and Warren had been invited to this get together and he hoped and prayed his two fellow founding X-men would walk through the door and join them. Hank had been back to been a full time scientist and Warren had taken over his fathers company...both men were trying to find lives outside being a X-man. Infact everyone here had at some point attempted to break away from the fold and failed miserably, maybe they all just were gluttons for punishment. Emma was actually rather sweet and Bobby was surprised by that, how kind she actually was to him. She had this reputation for been a stone cold bitch, the former White Queen of the Hellfire club but she was actually rather sweet. The private conversation between Bobby and Emma was interrupted by Quciksilver, he commented on how he was glad that Bobby had accepted himself and made a startling revelation he was infact Bisexual. <br><br>Bobby's mouth fell open alittle bit and he mouthed to Emma "Really?" Although it shouldn't be a surprise, Piero Maximoff was very forward he was known for that. As for him being into both sexes it made sense, with his power he must get bored very quickly and as such the idea o9f staying with one sex must seem so far behind for him. but the shocker was Pietro had been married once, to the inhuman princess Crystal, they even had a daughter Luna together. What was it about Crystal which made men gaga? She had dated the Human Torch, Married Pietro (who must be the hardest man to please) and even had a affair with the Black Knight (apparently). Maybe Bobby shouldn't judge given all the relationship crap hed been through dating girls when he should have been with boys.&nbsp; "Er...thanks Pietro..." Bobby said with a frown. It was weird getting a compliment from the guy he used to fight when they were kids. But Pietro and Wanda had proven themselves as heroes many times over Bobby still saw them as Brotherhood kids. he then stood behind the handsome silver haired man and bent down to ask him a question. "So when`s the last time you and Wanda saw Magneto? he said with concern for the master of magnetism. It was funny how time could heal all wounds and you could learn how to forgive given enough incentive.&nbsp; &nbsp;

She could see his claws starting to pop out of his knuckle's but his restraints were still on, she knew he had a code about killing since he had become Xavier's pet, but he did dislike her a lot. Ironic she had *Married* him&nbsp; in a blood wedding a few years ago, of corse at the time Logan had protested, but his ties to hydra ran deep. Viper leaned forward and open the limo door next to Logan. Without a word she rolled him out of the car and onto the street pavement. The car then spead away. What she had told him had been in part true and that was enough to mess with his mind. She learnt long ago that the truth could be more destructive then any well versed lie.

"So I guess this is a private party then, or can anyone join?" He let the door close behind him looking around see the multitude of mutants gathered inside, until his eyes fell on Emma.

Moving straight towards her he reached out and pulled her into a deep and passion filled kiss his hands around her neck.

But now, with her walking away from the game once Logan had died, and now...Rogue was reminding her just why she hated the fucking X-men anyway. <br><br>She shrugged to Bobby about Pietro and smiled a little. "Hey, everyone has their secrets, but it's better to let people know than hide this one inside right?" She said before turning when she heard Warren. "Good to see you too Angel." She said in a cool voice, her eyes narrowing at him. "No thanks, I have my own cab fare thank you." <br><br>Then next voice though made her heart stop as she turned to look and saw Logan...no...no this wasn't possible. He was alive? How...but before she could ask as he approached her, his lips were stopping any chance of her questioning that he was her Logan, because no one would have ever kissed her like this had he not been the right man. A part of her wanted to push him away and yell at him for leaving her like that. Then the other part of her wanted to pull him closer as they kissed, time seemed to stop for her in that moment and she trembled slightly against him.<br><br>Then the kiss was over and she was left looking at him, trying to keep her composure and failing to do so as she looked at him. "Logan?" She said in a voice that was almost disbelieving as she looked at him. "How...why...." She couldn't understand, he'd said he'd come back to life but...how had he known they would be here? What was happening? Did Kitty know he was alive again and not told her? She turned to Kitty, looking at her almost as if daring her to admit she didn't know before she said the words. "Swear to me you didn't know!" She said, because if Kitty knew and brought her here without telling her Logan was alive, she was going to be furious with Kitty. <br><br>It wasn't that she wasn't glad to find out he was alive, it was more of holding back information from her to keep her from knowing before she came, she would have been a hell of a lot easier to have come here if she'd known. As it had taken Kitty quite the convincing to even get Emma to show up to this little shit fest.

"I am not sure why you are all hanging out in a diner, but Viper told me my blood was the cure to the Terrigan Mysts which is making mutant's infertile,&nbsp; that the Inhumans, even the royal family know of this and want to exterminate the mutant race.

As she sat back, her long legs crossed. She wondered if they were going to beat each other up. Damn, this itching in her head was irritating. She "looked" to see if Emma was messing with her but no. She was about to look outside but then Rogue started in on Emma and THAT was interesting if a bit crass of Rogue. Rogue of course was a spitfire and had a point. Still, they were supposed to be here for Kitty, not air dirty laundry.<br><br>Poor Bobby was finally coming out of the closet, something really hard for some people and there was a pissing contest going on. She cast a sympathetic glance to Bobby and smiled at him with a wink. Thankfully, Remy had some words of encouragement for him. Bobby was always a good kid and was growing into a fine man, whoever had his heart would be very lucky.&nbsp; She did not miss the look he gave Pietro. Gods! What was this itching. It was like something was trying to tell her something. Then Warren walked in. Blaise as ever. Throwing money around as if it were water. She rolled her eyes even as her stomach was rolling and her heart felt stabbed. He was just as handsome as ever if marred by his arrogance. She could only stiffen, planting her feet as if she was going to jump into a fighting stance. She fought to relax. She meant to greet him as curtly as possible but damn her, it was more breathless. "Warren."<br><br>Elizabeth could only get that out as&nbsp; behind her the reason for her itching came to light. Once upon a time, she had linked to Logan with her psionic knife when she had been Lady Mandarin. It really had only cemented their friendship. When he had...died, she thought it was gone with him but silly her, she had held onto the hope then it had faded but lately she had felt an itching. The bond flared the moment he stepped through the door and then it faded. Death wouldn't keep it strong but now, seeing him stunned her. Then guilt descended on her. Her vision blurred with tears. He was alive! She should have known. Realized. She should have been looking for him. Relief was the only thing she felt. When he kissed Emma, she wanted to punch him in the arm for making like John Wayne in the <em>Silent Man</em>. She could only laugh at his audacity.<br><br>"Logan, you bastard. You owe me fifty bucks," she said hand on her hips, her voice a bit choked. "Since you rose from the dead, you lost the bet."

His hands on hers as she listened to what happened to him and what Viper had claimed, she felt as if she wasn't all that surprised. "It's probably your healing factor. I wouldn't be surprised if Viper's trying to get people to think you need to be bled dry to keep themselves alive." she said wryly, and like hell, she was ever going to let that happen. She'd already lost him once, she wasn't about to do it again.

"Whoa Rogue you need to cut Emma some slack what happened with Scott wasn't all on her Scott played his own part in the whole thing and yeah it's me in the flesh."<br><br>When Psylocke saw him and her saw her eyes moisten with tears he squeezed Emma's hand and moved over. "Fifty bucks how about a hug instead, I don't seem to have brought any money with me. He didn't wait and he moved forward hugging her tightly. Before releasing her.&nbsp; Looking back to Emma and smiling before settling on Kitty. <br><br>"I know I wasn't invited to this party but what exactly is going on here and why is everyone here. You must have brought everyone here for a reason how about you spill it." He moved back over beside Emma taking her hand once more. HE knew she was shocked, by his appearance, but it didn't change the fact he fell for her before he died and he still cared for her deeply.

That even seemed to her like more she could possibly do, not without messing around with their minds or with reality and she wouldn't that to her friends, not again at least... not unless she found herself in a desperate state of mind but she had been making improvements on that.<br><br>Wanda would head towards her brother then as she wouldn't step between Anna and Remy but it seemed Emma´s presence bothered her more than him. Maybe Bobby should've keep quiet about all the Scott-Jean-Emma thing, about Logan well that was something they were all shocked about including Wanda herself but at least Pietro was quick to pull Bobby out of the mess he created without realizing. <br><br>"I think the same Pietro, Bobby, it doesn't matter if you're mutant, inhuman, human, shi'ar or whatever. X-men or not we're all still in the same team" perhaps it was because they were twins though they have had their misunderstanding it was more because of having different interests than different ways of thinking. "It is fun to explore new things and I don't care if I find it on <em>my same team</em>" she was not as obvious as Pietro about being bisexual herself too but felt glad about Bobby being comfortable with himself "I'm glad you opened up yourself to your true self too."<br><br>"I'd rather not talk about him" Wanda suddenly interrupted when Bobby mentioned their supposed father clearly uncomfortable about that issue but quickly forgetting about it to pay more attention to Pietro instead, "Now can I have a try of what you are eating bro'?" Wanda said as she hugged him behind without taking a seat herself. Warren entered then and she raised a hand welcoming him without giving up on her hug on her brother. She found amusing how he dealt with common folk and paid no further attention to him or to the bell of the door ringing every time somebody left so when someone came in she didn't realize until she heard his voice. Could it be? Wanda slowly turned around only to see it was him, she didn't know how but it was indeed Logan. She couldn't believe what she was looking at but she couldn't be wrong about it, she was so surprise she couldn't utter a word and instead she only grabbed Pietro's chin and forced him to turn around and see what she was being witness of.

She was a former enemy and Kitty herself had expressed her dislike and distrust of the White Queen. But Rogues outburst came from a place of pure anger, maybe it was that southern belle sass that was seeping through? As much as it pained Kitty on a personal level she couldn't deny that Frost had done good with the X-men. The fact both Scott and Logan may have both desired the blonde beauty didn't help, but as much as she loved Cyclops and Wolverine when it came to women they both could be hound dogs. Just then another former X-man entered the diner, one with class, style and sophistication. Warren Worthington the third, aka Archangel.&nbsp; Seeing Warren come in and take over was nothing new, he even had the Gaul to tear the No Smoking sign off the wall and lit up a cigarette.&nbsp; He handed the waitress some money (a lot) and said the Diner was closed for private business. Then he arrived at the table with the mutants. He too had a go at Frost which made Kitty speak up. "Enough getting at Emma please." Warren came from the same background as Frost and should be kinder to her. Was Emma been everyone's favourite scapegoat, that totally wasn't fair if that was the case.&nbsp; Warren was being a show off and it wasn't cute, not in the slightest.<br><br>Kitty was getting ready to chew out both Archangel and Rogue for getting on Emma`s case. They needed to live and let live, they only had each other in this big and scary world. But then he walked in, he strolled in, Logan, Wolverine...her mentor...her farther figure. Was it him? Or was it another sick trick which the X-men should be so used to be now? Kitty felt her heart jump in her chest again when she saw him. He then kissed Emma passionately infront of them all which left no doubt in anyone's mind how he felt about her. Emma then turned on her and asked her if she knew he was alive. Katherine just shrugged in response and just looked at Logan flabbergasted at his presence. Warren then asked her if she was planning on getting the band back together, she was but she never expected Logan to walk back in here. But she was delighted to see him never the less. <br><br>Logan then asked why this reunion had come together, Warren had asked the question earlier. "We need to be together...were stronger together....Storms missing...Magnetos missing... others connected to us. To Xaviers dream. Its our responsibility to do something about it. Maybe some of you want out of that life...I wouldn't blame you if that was so but....Ororo was like a big sister to me, I NEED to find her." She then walked over towards Logan and Emma, she broke them up for a split second to give him a big hug. "I missed you....jerk..." She said with a smile as she hugged him tightly. She needed this moment with him, he was the closet thing she had to a farther now. <br><br>&nbsp;

He heard Quicksilver's comment and chuckled. "Seems Like you have that right Quick!"<br><br>As Kitty spoke up and said they needed to be together. That Storm and Magneto were missing her remembered what Viper said about the inhumans having prisoners. "Well I guess my claws were hung up long enough, I really wish somebody would tell me how damn long I was gone by the way?" he said chuckling. As Kitty moved over and hugged him he smiled at her. Yeah that seems to be the trend in here. I'm glad you're ok. Speaking of missing mutants while I am no big fan of Magneto, Storms my friend and I may just have an idea of where they are. Viper mentioned the Inhumans had also taken prisoners there's a good chance that's where they are. If they have them then we need to get out of collective asses and help them out. Those damn Inhumans are do for a goood ass kicking in my book from what Viper said. It's probably exactly what the bitch want's but if they are really causing all these mutant issues and have Storm I say we go pay them a visit."<br><br>He looked around the room at all of the gathered mutants, trying to judge their reactions he was not really one for pep talks but dammit they sure seemed not they needed a fire under their asses. Smiling he looked back to Emma, she had been really quiet since he had come in and he was concerned she was not usually the silent type. Moving over beside her he took her arm gently. Before looking back to the others. "Go ahead and think it over I need to talk to Emma for a few minutes." That said he led Emma back into the kitchen are and kissed her again. Looking into her eyes trying to gauge her emotions. She was the telepath after all not him.

It was strange two former enemies were now so supportive of him, it was nice though. He knew both of them had a rocky relationship with Magneto and he could see the hurt in their eyes when he brought it up. He just smiled sadly at them and turned his attention to the entrance of former X-man Warren Worthington. Warren seemed to be doing better then when he last saw him, but he&nbsp; knew that his friend had a constant struggle with the darkness within. Apocalypse really did a number on him when he turned him into Archangel, but with Xaviers and Pyslockes help he was able to claw back his sanity. But he was playing up to the rich playboy manner and shooting off at the mouth like when they were kids. It was a defence mechanism, just like Bobby used humour to cover up what he was really feeling. The Iceman smiled and walked in the direction to one of his oldest friend's, he was glad Warren was here. Before he could greet him a familiar face walked in, Logan, who was SUPPOSED to be dead. That was the funny thing about X-men, they never stayed dead for long. Unless you counted the Professor, Jean and now Cyclops. "Well il be...." he said when he saw Wolverine stroll back in and kiss Emma. <br><br>"Did you know those two had a thing?" He asked Warren directly with a smile. he then clapped his hand on his friends shoulders and squeezed. "Good to see you bro. But hey give the Tony Stark attitude a rest ok?"

No, Logan was hers as he'd always been before his death, but that didn't mean he didn't have friends and she understood this.<br><br>She he looked at her, to be honest she wasn't sure what to think at the moment. She was quite stunned that he was alive, thankful even, but where did it leave them? Did they just pick up again after everything and forget what happened? Could they? She had been devistated by his death, in fact this was the first time in a long time she'd been sober. She'd figured it best to just come here without drinking anything, but now...now she was feeling like she could really use a drink because everything was so overwhelming, including Logan's return to the living. <br><br>She was grateful of Kitty telling everyone to lay off her, it was nice to know that past events hadn't poisoned her fully against her as well. She gave kitty a smile and when she said Storm's missing, she frowned a bit. "Are we sure Storm's in hiding? Does anyone have proof?" She asked as she looked at them.

A lie...she couldn't accept it because it was torturing her inside as she looked at him now, it was even worse. "And now...you're here and...I don't know how to deal with it.

For a while, after Trish, he latest lover left him; he tried to keep his late friends dream alive by entering into politics. This was short lived when the civil war broke out and he left to protect those still human in the political scene. Some, who liked her were sad to see him go, while most were happy to see him go. Mostly, he just wanted to protect these people the best he could to prevent any unnecessary deaths. Hank then went back to the mansion to resume his studies; although it did take him a while to recover on his own after all the downs that kept happening and the civil war breaking out.<br><br>Deep inside, he knew he had to keep going and do what he did best. At the very least, he would have a home or shelter ready just in case the former and scattered X-Men would want to come back. He was no butler, but he did what he could in the time he gave himself to the mansion and the facilities below. It did not mean he did not think of Charles or Logan and all those friends long gone from the living. Which, one of his routines was to go outside, to the back were they had set up a grave site and visited with all the graves there and while Hank was not spiritual; he opted to speak with his old friends and speak to Charles about any progress he was making.<br><br>Aften enough when Beast was not consumed with his genetics research or his electronics repairs or alterations; he often wanted to take a trip to see Ororo or Elizabeth Bradock just to have a bit of a conversation like old times, but would often push the idea away as he did not want to bother them with their lives now. While it was true, he did have Abigail Brand and he did love er very much, but he did not want drag her down with him when he realized how much of a slump he was getting into. Why of all places come back to the mansion? It was because for him, this is where all the fond memories were, where he first started to learn about his powers, was part of the good guys; where he could give everyone and everything 100% of what he was. Sure, he was a member of the Avengers and S.W.O.R.D., but none of them felt like home. Heck, he was called back to both on several occasions, but denied them each time. He even broke it off with Brand for some time now and she did not take it well at all. Understandably so and it took hours for Hank to calm her down and get it through logically to her.<br><br>After a time, Beast eventually received an email from Kitty not all that long ago. Off and on, he had been fighting with himself on it. Now, as he sat in his swivel chair in the med bay of the X-Men’s underground facility; he sat in front of a computer. He had a pair of tan dress pants, a maroon, tucked in dress shirt and a white lab coat on. His feet were bare and he had his small, reading glasses on. On the holo-screen in front of him were his email and a reply window open to Kitty’s email. Normally, he had no problem writing, but for some reason; he found it hard to start this one. Hank sighed and brought his fingers to the keyboard and begun typing.<br><br>‘Kitty,<br><br>It does my heart good to hear from you. It feels like half a life time and I am sure that goes for all the people who is to meet up with you. Do let them know I do give my regards to everyone who shows. That being said, I do not think it best for me to attend. After all, I am a walking, human cat, blue furball. I do think that not being seen is a wise course of action; as much as it pains me not to see you or anyone else. Please, be safe and feel free to stop by the mansion; if it does not bring up any bad memories. Though, the security system has everyone, but me as inactive… So, getting to the lower floors may prove to be a challenge. Wait, I doubt it would be an issue for you. Silly me.<br><br>Even in this world, Kitty; we must never forget our friends and comrades. In all the sadness and pain we endure and still endure. True strength is not by what we have endured, but by continuing to endure when we do not have the strength to do so. As well, the best kinds of people are the ones that come into your life, and make you see the sun where you once saw clouds. The people that believe in you so much, you start to believe in you too. The people that love you, simply for being you. Never forget the positives in your life.<br><br>Sincerely,<br>Dr. Henry McCoy<br>aka Beast’<br><br>Hanks right hand moved over to the mouse and used it to move the cursor to hover over the send button, he clicked the ,eft mouse trigger and sent the email. So, she would get it whenever; during or after the diner meeting. In the meantime, Hank had some medical records to finally get to and tidy up.

If ever she had a best friend it was Logan. Not that they had long emotional talks but there were one or two things you dont tell anyone and but Logan knew and she knew things he would never talk about. The main point was someone to trust. That was worth more than gold in this world but Elizabeth was Psylocke. She was a cool and calculating warrior and a warrior did not break down and cry. So she sniffed as she hugged him back and pounded his back like a long lost pal, grateful he was here.<br><br>"Don't ever do that again," she managed to whisper before they broke apart.<br><br>Elizabeth watched him go but her eyes roved over to Warren as if on their own. Without meaning to, not wanting to draw attention to herself, she found herself staring into familiar eyes. Her stomach filled with butterflies and that almost tangible darkness wanted to reach out and entwine with his. Her buddy shuddered with an almost sensual surge followed by the ice that touched the small of her back. Like the touch of Death. There were so many reasons to want to grab Warren by the lapels and bring him down hard to crush his lips to hers and just as many reasons to flee the scene. Their hopeless love was nothing more than a chalk outline at a horrific crime scene. Still, she couldn't look away. Was it to drink him in or false courage?<br><br>"Warren," she nodded, acknowledging him but not moving from her spot. Her eyes flicked down at the crushing of the cigarette and back to his handsome face. Wow, like he was Humphrey Bogart. Elizabeth felt her lips twitch, wanting to smile. "I go by Elizabeth now."<br><br>Elizabeth simply stated it. What more could she say? They were fire and ice together, water and oil. Death and Apocalypse made sure of that, or so she told herself. She was glad when Kitty spoke up. Psylocke was familiar with the dark but one thing she was sure of was there was no darkness without light and Kitty was the light right now. The world needed hope and Elizabeth a cause. Without something to fight for, she was just a killer. <br><br>She reached out and put a hand on Kitty's arm. "We'll find Storm and I think she may not be as hard to find as you think. Yes, she was tired of fighting but Storm is tied to nature and even she cannot ignore what is happening. It is...unnatural. That we have come together cannot be a coincidence. We are warriors and we were never meant to sit on our hands. We will fight. That is our nature. What we fight, that is our own choice and demons." Elizabeth had been through much, psychological, supernatural, spiritual, and physical. One could not come away from that without a small understanding of the Checks and Balances of the Universe.<br><br>Elizabeth eyed Rogue. Why was she so angry? She always spoke before thinking but this was a little over the top. She sighed inwardly. They had all been through so much individually, together, apart. It was hard to face the fact that they were all mentally fucked up but in a way, it made them who they were. Perhaps it was the tension in the room, the opening of old wounds and new. Elizabeth didn't actually&nbsp; influence anyone but she did try to clear the air of the tension which seemed to prickle the air. Her mind cleared a bit for it.<br><br>"One thing we may want to address is how Viper knew to be here and if she is involved somehow, are there other players. If Hydra has some clue then the Inhumans are not completely in the dark either. We may have to move a little faster than we think," she said, concern coloring her voice.

She pursed her lips a little and nodded. "Yeah, well take your nothingness, add in a whole hell of a lot of pain, anger, frustration and top it off with the numbing effects of alcohol and you pretty much got how I have been this entire time Logan." She said as she looked at him. <br><br>"I love you too, I'm just..." She took a deep breath and sighed. "I'm afraid that you're just a dream, that when I wake you're going to still be gone and it can't possibly be real, even though I know I'm awake and I know I'm looking right at you. I can hope what you say is true Logan." She said when he hugged her tightly, laying her head on his shoulder. "Because I'm not strong enough to lose you a second time. I lost Scott, I lost you, I can't do it again." She said as she clung to him.<br><br>When he told her he was here for her if she wanted him after all that has happened as he pulled back from the hug to look into her eyes. "I love you, that's never going to change. I might be frightened you'll dissappear, but if I didn't want you, why would I be standing here before you now Logan? I could have easly walked out of here as soon as you showed."

Why were they all so happy to just let this lie, Ororo meant the world to them, she was the heart of the X-men and she was missing along with Magneto and other mutants. "I cant belief im hearing this, YOU all raised me. YOU all taught me we don't give up the fight, Hell, not even death can keep us at bay. Im just shocked you just all want to sit back and live the regular life. Truth be told you may think im going in half cocked asking you all here...but Ororo was in constant contact with me and I can assure you the last few messages she sent me did not indercate she was ready to retire, if anything she was getting back to her roots to be a better leader for us, for the team." She sighed and put her hands in her jean back pockets as she looked around the diner at the former X-men. "She's in trouble can you please trust me on that?" She said with a knowing expression and a thoughtful glare. Both Emma and then Psylocke offerd support in looking for the weather witch. Psylocke in particular brought up the fact HYDRA and Viper may be involved with this given they had returned Logan. <br><br>"Look all I know their is enough of us for two field teams....I suggest Logan, Emma, Piotr, Gambit and Myself check out any HYDRA leads. Then Rogue, Archangel, Pyslocke, Wanda, Pietro and Bobby go the grounds of the School and see if you can active Cerebro with Elisabeth." Just then her phone in her pocket started buzzing and she pulled it out and read it. Her face dropped, it was Hank, explaining why he wasn't here at the meeting and she sighed as she looked it over. He was making excuses and burying himself in his work as he always did, he cared for Storm too and Kitty really couldn't understand this resistance to helping them. Both Warren and Emma had money which they would need to operate given the X-men had&nbsp; for all intents and purpose's disbanded for a time she hoped it wasn't too permanent.&nbsp; "Hanks at the mansion, maybe he wil listen more to you Warren or Bobby?" She hoped two of his oldest friends might get through to him, hopefully Bobby as Warren was been a bit of a dick at the moment, he was probably just throwing his weight around infront of Pyslocke. "If this pans out as nothing and Ororo is fine you can all go youre separate ways but one way or another im reforming the X-men. I hope youre all going to be with me on this." She said with confidence.

She heard the suggestion that she, Logan, piotr and Gambit go with her the rest go to the school and see if they could get Cerebro working. "I think it's worth looking at Hydra. We don't know what they are really up to, I would never put it past Hydra." She said as she leaned a little against Logan. Yeah, Hydra might have returned him to her, but for what real reason?

It was what they did as X-Men, even if they weren't technically that any longer, in their hearts, they were bound by a bond tighter than family.&nbsp; He had owed nearly everyone here his life at least once.&nbsp; And if it was important enough to Katya to summon him after the harsh words spoken at their last meeting, how could he say no? It had likely taken a great deal of pain to send that invite.&nbsp; <br><br>Finally he spoke to the others. "I vill go. If Katya.." he stopped, catching himself using his pet name for her... "If Shadowcat was willing to call for me.. the situation is dire. I owe most of you my life multiple times over. As I do Ororo.&nbsp; Even though I have not alvays been the best teammate, I vill go. X-Men never forget..." If she looked she would see the pain in his eyes. Maybe the others would see it too, but he didn't really care.

She had crossed her arms and shook her head over the posturing. Yes, they were all mostly friends, some of the best but they, including herself, were pretty much alpha personalities and getting along was never easy. How they managed to save the world was beyond her. One of her Masters would just say, something along the lines of "Destiny has a plan and no matter how hard you stray from the path Fate will bring you right back." <br><br>Not wanting to add to the drama, she only nodded at Warren. If she opened her mouth, it would probably just be a mess. A mess that was going to have to be resolved if they were going to work together. She was not happy about that at all. She spent a lot of time not being an emotional wreck about their lost love by keeping her distance from her ex. Now they were probably going to side by side. It was going to be exhausting keeping up the emotional brick wall.<br><br>"That's the point, Remy. Who, with a capital 'W' would definitely be crazy enough to take out the biggest of the bad. It's smart. Take them out of the equation and it would be little work to wipe out the rest. If they have Magneto and Storm somehow, the good news would be the level of difficulty to keep them, which ups the chances of them being alive. We find them and their plan crumbles. What make them an idiot is us. We've been fractured for so long that they probably think we won't band together and if they do, we are going to need to watch out backs because they probably have a plan B," she explained, glad this conversation was more on track with what was going on thanks to Remy.<br><br>"If Storm is in trouble we are going to have to do everything we can. If Storm is happy being Queen to her tribe, than it can't hurt to make sure she really is okay, Rogue. If she is in trouble, she would definitely need your help. I'm not excited about putting Cerebro in my head but I'd do anything for Storm as well," she said the last with a decisive nod. Since the Shadow King, Elizabeth spent a lot of time making sure things stayed out of her head. Bringing down the shields made her more than a little nervous.<br><br>"I think there maybe more players involved than we know and maybe more we don't. We are going to need more info. Playing Hydra's game is a start, controlling our part will be key Emma. And if I'm right, we have a genius at the mansion who can figure that one out, hopefully," she stated, thinking of Beast. "Whatever Hydra is doing, being a humanitarian to the mutant population isn't one of them. If Hydra has joined forces with others or if the Inhumans have, either way, this is going to be messy."<br><br>Elizabeth was probably just stating the obvious but going in to this without any objective was going toget them killed and nowhere and as many times as she has died and come back, she didn't think this time she would get another Phoenix Feather.

She said to the other team as she indicated for Wolverine, Gambit, Emma and Colossus to follow her out of the Diner. The open channel was the one set up by Hank McCoy himself for when the X-men needed to communicate under the Radar. Thing's were not great with the Avengers and the Xmen despite Steve Rogers unity squad which Logan, Rogue, Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch had all served under. if Hydra was playing a game with the former X-men and using Logan as bait then they needed to be on the guard, but Kitty figured safety in numbers. She had split the teams for a reason, Both teams had a telepath each in Psylocke and Frost. Also the unlimited funds which came with having Emma on one squad and Worthington on the other made sense. Kitty trusted Gambit despite his bad boy ways and she wasn't sure things between him and Rogue were one hundred percent, the love triangle with Erik could only complicate things. Both Bobby and Warren were the best to recruit Hank at the mansion given their history with him, Psylocke also had a friendship with McCoy, and the Maximoff Twins were powerhouses that she would rather benched for the time being. <br><br>She hoped and prayed this was the real Logan but her past experience's could never truly dictate one way or the other what was what. She stepped outside onto the warm new York streets and stuffed her hands in her hoodie pockets, yes it was a calculated move having Piotr on the team, maybe she just wanted a moment to speak with him again, to apologise how things ended between them even though she didn't owe him anything. Yes she had technically got engaged to someone else but that relationship was over and she needed to move on with her life back on Earth. She waited outside the diner for her 4 fellow mutants. She was going to take them back to her moms to pick up some things before they headed out, she needed her costume for one and she wanted to check in with her pet dragon Lockheed. She hoped she was doing the correct thing in brining the X-men back together again, but that old saying "The Road to Hell is paved with Good Intentions" kept rattling around in her mind. Whoever was after them was a big threat to take down both Storm and Magneto was not a small accomplishment.&nbsp;

Bobby joked as he looked over at his five comrades he had been assigned to work with. "You know....cos were going to go and recruit the Blue guy?" He said lamely as he looked from Rogue (boy was she pissed off with Frost). He remembered the time he went on a road trip with her and took&nbsp; her to meet his parents, it was very much a Gay guy brining his *beard* home to shut the nagging questions of "When you going to meet a nice girl?" he and Rogue became close during that trip, he thought at the time about asking her out but she was too consumed with her feelings for Gambit at the time. He then turned to Psylocke she was actually rather calm all things considered but he was glad to see she was keeping her shit together. Elisabeth talked a lot of sense and strategy, she was an expert on the clock and dagger stuff so if it was HYDRA who was pulling the strings she`d be a good ally to have.<br><br>Wanda and Pietro seemed dedicated to helping them which was a bonus, both were pretty powerful in a fight. Having two Avengers on the team could help with any problems. He was glad they were with them, he turned to Archangel who had addressed him and smirked. Warren had a plain they could take which would get them to their destination. He was still giving off the Tony Stark attitude. "Im fine with it dude, just don't let it go to you're head is all.

She loved him, god help her she did, but the fears of this being ripped from under her again were constantly creeping up and she wasn't sure if she wanted to just simply say oh fuck it and dive head deep into the mess or walk away and say she couldn't do it again. He was here, she knew that much and she needed to think, hopefully nothing was going to go wrong and she would lose him again. She couldn't handle that...

She glanced back at the four X-men who had come with her, they were her dysfunctional family and she loved them. But she was worried how her mother might react to seeing them. As far as she was concerned the X-men had taken her daughter away from her for years and turned her into a solider. Not the Doctor that she had always hoped Kitty might one day become. She knew her Mom knew and liked Logan given his gruff and handsome charm, but she might have mixed feelings to Emma Frost. Emma had tried to recruit a 13 year old Kitty into the Hellfire club before she was recruited with Xaiver and Emma had been rather *pushy* in those days. Still Frost seemed much softer now and she just seemed grateful that Logan had been returned to them. Katherine smiled and indicated they walk into her home she opened the door with her key and the X-men walked in. Her mom lived on the ground floor in the first apartment, she wondered how her mom would react to seeing Piotr as the two of them had previously dated and he had broken her daughters heart. <br><br>Gambit however was charming as ever and maybe he could sweet talk her mother if she was up. It was rather early, Kitty indercated to the others to be quiet by putting her finger to her lips. They creped inside her living room, it was a eclectic style of home, she indercated they cross over and head towards her bedroom. Her Mom was still asleep, she opned the door and the X-men walked inside. it felt werid having Piotr back in her bedroom, just seeing him again and the way he was so quiet was sending her for a loop. She noticed Gambit had been texting as the left Empire DIner. "Who were you texting Remy?" She came out and asked him as she started to pack her duffel bag as the others waited for her. She found her X-men costume and her spare and shoved them in her travel bag. <br><br>Her pet dragon Lockeheed came out from under the bed and licked her face and he did every morning, he then flew around the room happy to see they had company. He growled at Piotr indicating he was not happy to see him, ever protective of his mistress. He then landed on Logan's shoulder's, that was a good sign, that what she was secretly hoping for in bringing Logan here. That indicated he was who he said he was and not a clone or a Skrull or Mystique in disguise. She knew she was going to break her Mothers heart again running off with the X-men once more, but friends were in danger what else could she do? She loved her mom so much but she couldn't sit on the couch and watch Greys Annotomy with her and pretend the world wasn't going to Hell for Mutants. She had pretty much everything she needed in this bag, she was ready to go, but she was debating weather or not to wake her Mom.

As he waited for Kitty to finish gathering her things.<br><br>"So whats the plan Kitty where are we off to and how do you plan on getting there, You seem to have had these groupings thought out in advance, so I imagine you have thought this out beyond the diner.

Even though it was earlier than when he would usually eat; he decided that he should not neglect himself. Thus, he removed his lab coat after he stood up from his swivel chair; hung the coat on the back of the chair and headed out into the main corridor of the X-Men base. He made his way to the elevator and took it to the mansion above. He exited through the secret panel that also was the elevator door and stepped out. After that, he made his way to the kitchen on the main floor.<br><br>As Hank came into the kitchen, he reached for the remote and turned on the TV that hung in the corner of the room and put the remote down. The flat screen TV flicked on and right to the new station. Once again, there was news of another attack on a mutant; this time it was a young girl, not even in her teens. As Hank listened to the report, his heart sank. For all of his intellect and strength; he knew he could do nothing to stop these attacks and there was no one here, besides him. No one to take these mutants in and actually keep them safe. Deep down, Hank wanted to keep fighting, but this was too much of an uphill battle and like Storm, his old friend; was tired mentally of it. Even this ‘break’ of his was not doing anything for him. Hank breathed in an exhaled, thinking of what was actually good in the world. Kitty and a handful of others were still alive and kicking. Hell, Elizabeth/Psylocke who once died in his arms had come back to life at one time. For that, he was forever grateful. Warren, even came back after the ordeal with Apocalypse. Yet, they were all trained, not like these young mutants; mutants who were such easy targets. Perhaps he should have gone to see Kitty; he mentally spoke as he second guessed himself.

So why was getting in the car with Warren balking her. She mentally sighed. Because nothing is more frightening than facing your past, especially relationships that have failed cosmically no matter how hard you tried. On the other hand, looking undignified by crawling into the back of an SUV was rather unappealing. That and sitting in the dense smog of tension was a guarantee for a headache. She put on her big girl panties and climbed into the front passenger seat before anyone else could. Warren was just another arrogant bastard who threw around money. They may not be in a relationship anymore but he was still a friend, one she had hoped to keep her distance from. This gig was not going to allow that.<br><br>"We need to get moving. Your plane better have cocktails because I think I'm going to need a drink, Warren," she said as if it was everyday business. She ignored the fact that Warren kissed Rogue's hand. Charming bastard. She didn't know if she was feeling jealous because it wasn't her or because once upon a time it was her. This was going to be a long ass trip for sure. So much emotion was being dredged up. She pulled a tight mental shield to block out the jumble of emotions from everyone.&nbsp; <br><br>Elizabeth looked out toward Logan, Kitty and the rest. She hoped they found what was needed. She was hardly a precog but the air seemed to thicken with portent as they had gathered. She leaned her elbow on the window ledge and put her forehead in her hand. At least she was going to see an old friend. It put a smile on her face, albeit a small one. Then the smile faded. They were going to need a plan. She started to weigh in the talents in the group. All powerful in their own right but could they work together? It had been so long since she was part of a team.

She sat on the edge of the bed and looked up at the four X-men now standing in her bedroom. "Well, we've worked together as a team before. With the exception of Remy we were a pretty tough unit. We faced off against the forces of Breakworld, and Danger when she was a threat. With the exception of Cyclops and Beast we fought well together...Logan you trained me so you and I know how each other thinks. You and Piotr have been fighting together since you both started as X-men. But if we are going to go after Hydra, especially Viper then we need Crimianl connections." She turned to look at Gambit. "I hate to say it Remy but you have those connections and we are proberblly going to need to exploit them. So that's why I asked you here....I split the teams up based on power sets...My power is protective as is Piotr`s...but Remy, Emma and Logan you all have abilities which compliment each other in a attack situation....Emma is our resident telepath and the other team has Psylocke. I felt both Warren and Bobby were the best two to try and reach out to Hank and get him to join us. Wanda and Pietro are too unpredictable no matter which team I assigned them too but if figured if Psylocke can access cerebro we might get a location on Magneto and those two are invested in him. The only real lead we have with the HYDRA cell is a downtown warehouse they used to operate out of. But im more curious in what Viper had to say to you Logan, so she claimed to be the one to bring you back. Why? I thought she made it pretty clear she hated you. What did she say to you...what does she want?"&nbsp; &nbsp;<br><br>Kitty had contacts with SHEILD that had gone dry so to speak and she had never really faced HYDRA as such. But Wolverine had a long standing history with them, especially with Viper and she wondered if they weren't planning to use him somehow. HYDRA were masters of deception and could easily manipulate someone to their will. Logan could be manipulated with his blood rage as well as his loyalty to his friends, if anyone wanted to truly get at him they would appeal to his humanity to manipulate him. But having a telepath on Frosts scale meant she would be able to detect any lies if Viper or her cronies were spinning falsehoods. Kitty still remembered the time Logan was brainwashed by the Hand and attempted to slaughter the entire X-men and the students. Luckily he was stopped by the combined efforts of SHEILD, Captain America, Elektra and the X-men. But that was a scary time, one of the few times Katherine felt truly hopeless, she never told him how terrified she had been those few days. "We can follow up any leads as to where we think Viper may be hiding but I want us to determine what her endgame is and IF it has anything to do with the missing mutants."

He always clashed with Cyclops over the silliest of things, mostly over the affections of a teenage Jean Grey. But Scott was gone now and so was Jean, something which was still a hard pill to swallow. He stated Bobby should ride shotgun in the car and the Ice-Man nodded he stuffed his hands in his jean pockets and walked in the direction Warren indicated they go in. Angel then made a joke the car would be cosy as long as Rogue kept her hands to herself, not the best joke to make in front of the sassy southern belle. <br><br>Rogue then vented and asked what they hell they were doing here, she was carrying around a lot of pain that was evident to see and it pained Bobby to see it in her eyes. He cared about Rogue a great deal, about all of them and he hated feeling they were drifting apart in some way. The reason Kitty called them was someone they loved, Storm, was missing and they owed it to her to see if she was alright. Bobby hadn't really been living much of a life since the X-men split up and was actually relieved when his ex, weird to say that, was back in touch with a mission for him. He`d been a X-man since he was 14 years old what else was he going to do with his life now? "We have to find Ororo Rouge, we all owe her our lives ten times over..." With Cyclops gone Ororo was the next in line as leader of the X-men. So brining her back was a big deal on so many levels. <br><br>Quicksilver then talked to Bobby commenting on Bobby's lame joke about why they were the Blue team. He as ever was competitive saying he could race them there to the mansion and win.&nbsp; He then teased him further by saying he would hwoever miss his company. Was Pietro flirting with him? That was an INTRESTING thought and one which made Robert blush alittle. Pietro was hot he filled out his costume very nicely but he was totally Evil....wasn't he? Bobby hurriedly tried to get into the car&nbsp; &nbsp;passengers seat as Warren had instructed him too. But Psylocke beat him to it, she was using stealthy ninja training which is what she did best, it did make the Iceman smile. Elisabeth was a class act and for all his bluster and teasing he knew Warren had loved her, they were good together and it depressed Bobby when they parted ways. He wanted Warren to be happy and Hank too they were his brother's and they deserved to find true love. He still couldn't get over the fact Pietro had been flirting with him that defiantly made him blush and now he couldn't stop thinking about it, oh God, Elisabeth would be able to tell too.<br><br>Warren was about to get in the drivers seat and then told Bobby he was to drive. Mr Drake rolled his eyes and just went. "Uh hu." he got in the drivers seat and fired up the SUV. He pulled out from where Warren had parked and laughed slightly. "I don`t think you were supposed to park there Warren, good job you didn't get a ticket we all know how hard up for cash you are." Bobby joked as he started their journey off to the airfield, he knew the way. Warren jet stetted them around when they were members of the Defenders. He knew what Worthington was doing, he was trying to make Elisabeth jealous by sitting so close to Wanda and Rogue, he was a sly dog wasn't he. Bobby caught Pietro`s eyes in the rear-view mirror and then focussed back on the road. He then deicide to have a silent conversation with Miss Braddock via her telepathic abilities. *So how have you been Elisabeth? Did you go to England to visit you're brother at all?" He wondered how often she saw her family, she was close with her brother Brian. Must be nice, to have family which actually cared about you as apposed to what he had.&nbsp;

There were a lot of memories swirling through his head right now, none of which were appropriate.&nbsp; Why had he agreed to this again? Of course, honor to his teammates. They had been there for him. They were his family. They were his friends as well, and despite everything that made him afraid to be here, he would not abandon them.&nbsp; No matter how awkward or painful it would be to be around Kitty.&nbsp; He listened to the conversation, and frowned when Lockheed growled him. Well what did he expect? A warm welcome? Hardly. The little dragon knee he had hurt her mistress, more than once.&nbsp; A part of him was happy to see the little dragon protective of her, somebody needed to. She was too headstrong for her own good.<br><br>Logan had a point though, it was the first thing that had broken through his moping.&nbsp; "Logan is right. If she dropped him off here, that means she at least knows what is going on. That suggests a trap. We must be cautious, Ka.." he caught himself, "Kitty." The name felt so foreign to his tongue. But she wasn't his Katya anymore. Hadn't been for a long time now.<br><br>Sighing, he said, "I think we should be cautious as well.&nbsp; But it will be good to have you at my side again, Logan. We have always made a good team."<br>

Bobby was a grown man and could make his own bad choices without Warren running interference. <br><br>He wasn't sure how he ended up in the middle of the back seat, with Pietro on one side and Rogue on the other. He'd chosen the back seat to quiet his wings. A hold-over from his time with Apocalypse, they were semi-sentient and had a dark nature that craved blood. No matter how much it hurt to be near her, it wasn't an excuse to murder her in cold blood. <br><br>His wings disagreed. <br><br>"So, read any good books lately?" he asked Rogue. It was an effort not to stretch his arms out to enfold her shoulders and Pietros. Certainly he had to clasp his hands in his lap to avoid playing with her far shoulder. <br><br>Starting any thing with Rogue would be playing with fire.&nbsp;

In a way she could see the point, to be honest, having Quicksilver and The Scarlet Witch at all was a gamble. But it wasn't her choice, nor was this her endgame. So she left that thought out. She turned her focus to Hydra and Logan, making Emma turn to listen to Logan as he explained what he knew about the situation when it came to Viper and Hydra. When he mentioned that they needed to get to Cerebro and get Emma connected, she shook her head. "Psylocke might not be as strong as myself when it comes to the abilities in telepathic, she is strong enough to use Cerebro just fine and has from my knowledge, used it in the past. So if they go looking, they should have no problem finding Storm and Magneto if they are alive. However, Viper is the better one to look for on our end and had I known she was close I could have connected to her mentally and then maybe used that pathway to follow her, but now…I'm afraid that I can't even think about that. <br><br>"As for Hydra and Viper, we can't assume that they won't know we're coming. Hell, could be why they brought Logan back to life in the first place, because they knew we would come seeking answers on why they did it and what they wanted from it. We can't trust them….Period." She said as she looked at them all. She was glad that Piotr also seemed to be erring on the side of caution as well. "So I agree with Logan and Piotr, if we go, we go expecting a trap." <br>

Viper had been tracing the X-mens communications as she knew they were meeting at Empire Diner. That was concerning to say the least. "But what did she say Logan/ Did she give a reason why they brought you back?" She couldn't stand it if he was being played again. He did say they needed to get access to Cerebro if Emma could get connected she can most likely find out where Storm and Magneto were. That was true but Elisabeth might have luck with Beast at the ruins of the X-mansion both women were formidable telepath's. Kitty just wanted to figure out how it was all connected somehow as she knew in her heart of hearts that it was. Piotr and Emma both agreed with Logan it was a trap and they should go in eyes open which Kitty agreed with fully.&nbsp; "Alight, we stake out the wherehouse downtown? Emma do you have a mode of transport? Or Remy? Something like a van or something, nothing too conspicuous so we can monitor what they are up too?" Kitty said with a shrug as she looked from the White Queen to Gambit. Both of them had money and they were going to need Money to run this operation if it was going to be a success. <br><br>Kitty prayed they would find Ororo, she couldn't take another loss but not only that but she hoped it would bring the X-men back together as the world so desperately needed them now more then ever. But maybe on a personal level she needed them more in her life, her eye's met with Piotr`s for a split second, God, he could still crush her with just one look. She hoped that Emma or Remy had the resource's that they needed to move this operation onward and upward.&nbsp;

She didn't know whether to be hurt or relieved. Maybe it was better this way. No one should have to face killing the person they loved. Not ever. To make light of the mood, she smiled at Pietro's banter. She could almost kiss him for breaking up the tension. Almost. It looked and felt like her kisses wouldn't stand a chance next to a certain someone's perhaps. She couldn't help but long for when they X-Men were young and fresh with ideals. Age and experience just made them cold and hard. The hurts were too many, the pain too much to bear at times. Still, she could hardly trade them. Well, maybe a few things.<br><br>*I've been good as can be, Bobby. As for my brother...we...we talk but I just wanted to sort some things out before visiting my family. They love you, you know, but they can be overwhelming.* She had felt Bobby's mind seeking hers and was grateful for the another distraction. *What about you? I see you've grown up a bit and finally made some big decisions. I'm proud of you, by the way. Sometimes accepting yourself is the hardest thing you can do. Gods know I've had to do it too many times,* she said to him with a mental sigh.<br><br>She could still feel the tingle of Warren's hand on hers. She really was going to need that drink soon. She thought about asking Bobby about Warren but she slammed that thought down before it leaked. She was going to have to lock up her emotions on this one. Not that she hadn't before. Deep down, she knew what she was. She was a killer, cold and hard. She never was going to be any different. She knew that before the Shadow King, before Apocalypse. She always knew. She hated to admit it but the X-Men kept her human. It was why she was here in this car fighting not to jump out onto the freeway.<br><br>"Pietro, you don't work fast at all," she laughed.<br><br>

Xavier would be able to help figure out what was wrong with her or be able to help her control her powers to where she could be normal and touch people like everyone else.

He was looking forward to seeing Hank again, he was like a big brother to him and he really needed him in his life at the moment to sort some stuff out that was rattling around in his head. He just hoped Beast would come back into the fold as they needed him so badly.

She left her mom a note saying where she was and the X-men headed out. She knew they had a lot of fractions going on between them but she was just glad to have her family back and as such she was sure they felt the same way. She looked over at Piotr, God she had missed him and she wanted to find some time to speak to him one to one. About everything that had gone down between them and where they were in terms of going forward.&nbsp; But she knew she might have to keep those conflicted feelings to herself until the mission was over. "Everyone good?" She asked her fellow X-men as they all headed out.&nbsp;
